Ma'am You Have Been Uncovered

Chapter 461: Not at That Level Yet

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qin Ran was in her room upstairs.

She’d spent last night settling some ICNE matters and practically didn’t sleep a wink. She didn’t rest while on the plane either.

It was only after arriving at Continent M that she relaxed a little.

She’d always been a light sleeper.

The knocking on the door wasn’t loud, but she heard it. She got up to open it.

Cheng Juan was at the door, leaning against the door frame.

“You’re back already?” Qin Ran looked at the time on her watch. Cheng Shui made it sound as if he wouldn’t be back so soon.

Cheng Juan did not say a word. He simply grabbed her hand and went in.

There was no one upstairs.

Cheng Wenru, Cheng Shui, and the rest figured that this wasn’t a good time for them to go upstairs.

Downstairs.

Leader Du still wasn’t in the loop. “Mr. Cheng Shui, Boss...”

Cheng Shui glanced at him and said deeply, “Sister-in-law is here.”

Leader Du’s eyes lit up. “Miss Qin is here?”

Cheng Shui nodded.

“That’s good.” Leader Du finally seemed a little joyful. “Miss Qin will persuade Boss, right?”

Upon hearing what he said, Cheng Shui recalled Qin Ran’s reaction last night. He hesitated before saying, “I... guess so.”

Cheng Huo asked directly, “Sister-in-law is here? Can I go up and look for her? I want to ask...”

“You can.” Cheng Mu looked at him expressionlessly. “If you’re courting death.”

Cheng Huo was speechless.

He turned to Cheng Shui and seemed to be asking with his eyes, “What’s with Cheng Mu?”

Cheng Shui did not respond. He went on to discuss the findings with Leader Du.

Cheng Wenru sat there and listened as there wasn’t much she could input.

A while later, they heard footsteps approaching.

Cheng Juan had both his hands in his pocket and was walking down the stairs behind Qin Ran.

He scanned the meeting table and asked calmly, “Who informed her?”

All of a sudden, everyone went quiet. Even Cheng Wenru kept her head low.

Cheng Shui just realized what was going on.

Cheng Juan was asking who got Qin Ran to come. He stood up and said, “Boss, it was me.”

Cheng Juan eyed him quietly and deeply, but his expression was unreadable.

“It’s nothing to do with him. I came for something else.” Qin Ran pulled out a stool and took a seat. “I came to Continent M to look for a Physics Research Institute. Cheng Shui, take a seat.”

Cheng Juan reached for a cigarette in his pocket and fiddled with it silently.

Only Cheng Mu was in the same state as before. He poured some warm tea and handed it to her. “Miss Qin, have some tea.”

Cheng Wenru, Cheng Huo, and Leader Du looked at him in shock.

Qin Ran took a sip and then turned to Cheng Juan.

Cheng Juan immediately released the cigarette, acting as if nothing had happened.

Cheng Shui quickly took his seat.

The atmosphere in the hall livened up.

Cheng Mu found Cheng Wenru and everyone else staring at him. “What are all of you staring at me for?”

Cheng Wenru, Leader Du, and Cheng Huo were speechless.

What a great actor.

Cheng Juan walked over and asked, “What research are you on that requires you to come all the way to Continent M?”

He furrowed his brows. He was only getting four hours of sleep each night.

“Brother Ye is part of it now, so he’s taking half of my duties.” Qin Ran placed the teacup back on the table.

Cheng Juan had a good memory. He remembered this Brother Ye to be an ordinary man who wasn’t especially impressive. He asked Cheng Shui, “Is dinner ready?”

Cheng Shui replied, “It’s been ready since earlier on.”

He got up and got the kitchen crew to get it ready.

As everyone eased into the situation, Cheng Huo continued the previous topic. “What should we do about Matthew? A small group of people from the law enforcement hall have been arrested by Matthew’s men. Honestly, he has a hacker behind him that I dare not provoke...”

Cheng Mu was serving the dishes from the kitchen. Upon hearing that, he looked up at him. “Didn’t you say you were amazing? But you dare not provoke this person, and you need Miss Qin’s help with another?”

Cheng Huo said, “... What do you know? Ask the Hacker Alliance, Matthew’s hacker has even captured offenders in the Hacker Alliance itself. And I’m not even at that level yet!”

At the same time.

It was only 1 pm locally.

At Beijing’s airport.

Three people got off the plane together and headed for a black car. historical

Madam Lu and Mr. Lu were standing by the car. As the passenger approached, they bowed and greeted, “Great Uncle.”

The old man in the lead took his glasses off and nodded. He then asked, “Have you contacted my sister’s descendants? What did they say? Will they meet me?”

He sounded slightly nervous.

“We’re still contacting Mr. Qin.” Madam Lu was a little stunned. “The DNA report is out. Mr. Qin is indeed your sister’s biological son.”

“I knew it.” The elderly shook his head. “I’ve seen the photographs you sent. His eyes are just like my sister’s.”

“I’m getting people to get in touch with him. But there hasn’t been a reply yet.” Madam Lu took them to a villa.

The elderly got off and received a call.

It was the person he’d sent to look for his sister’s family.

“Chairman, it’s strange...” The person on the other line sounded hesitant already. “Among the names you sent, the information of one of them is strange...”
