Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Professor Qi never expected this turn of events.

He knew who Fang Zhenbo was, and the inexplicable force behind him.

Back then, Ning’er and the big Qin family couldn’t do anything to Fang Zhenbo, let alone Qin Ran now?

The current situation was a little beyond Professor Qi’s expectations.

“At the moment, there are only five scholars in the Research Institute. Including me, three of us are now on Ran Ran’s side. As for Deputy Wei Feng, he has always been clear-cut and doesn’t participate in such matters.” Scholar Liao also returned to his senses and looked solemn, but there was a slight smile on his face. “As long as Elder Wei doesn’t stand on Fang Zhenbo’s side, we don’t have anything to worry about.”

Wei Feng was the oldest scholar with the deepest qualifications in the Research Institute. He had students all over the world, and if you grabbed any management-level person out of the domestic physics community, chances were that this person had done things under him before or had been taught by him.

He was highly respected as the deputy, but he didn’t like to involve himself in such politics and dedicated his life to the laboratory instead.

At this moment, most of the people in the Research Institute had started falling in line. He had gone abroad to do his own research.

But this was also good news. At least he wasn’t standing on Fang Zhenbo’s side.

If Wei Feng really supported Fang Zhenbo, their road would be extremely tough in front.

“I’m afraid Fang Zhenbo made a secret move.” Professor Qi recovered. “We mustn’t take him lightly.”

“I know.” Scholar Liao nodded.

…

Qin Ran rushed from Yun Cheng to Beijing in one day and also dealt with a lot of things.

It was almost 1 am when she returned to the manor.

The place was very quiet, but the headlights on the first floor were still turned on.

Cheng Mu went out and opened the door directly after hearing her. Ning Wei and Mu Nan were downstairs waiting for her instead of resting.

Ning Wei didn’t know what was going on. Mu Nan was still translating original text on the computer.

Putting her jacket onto the shelf on the left, Qin Ran glanced at Ning Wei. “Little Aunt, why aren’t you sleeping?”

“I’m going now.” Ever since her arrival in Beijing, Ning Wei had been a little dazed, and even her movements seemed a little restrained.

She was naturally uneasy that Qin Ran was out so late.

Now that Qin Ran had come back safely, she stood up from the sofa, lowered her head, and pursed her lips. “Ran Ran, you should rest early.”

She nagged her a little more and then went upstairs.

Qin Ran watched as she went upstairs.

Then, she sat down opposite Mu Nan.

“I already saw the house.” Mu Nan looked up, his fingers still typing on the keyboard. His eyes were dark and deep. “It’s next to the attached school.”

Qin Ran nodded slightly. “Okay, just tell me if you need help.”

“It’s okay.” Mu Nan typed the last letter and checked that there was no mistake before handing the translated documents to his employer. “I’ll complete the procedures tomorrow and then visit Big Brother Song.”

“Big Brother Song?” Qin Ran took the glass of milk that Cheng Mu handed to her and took a sip. “Big Brother Song and his teacher went to the laboratory in Country H to communicate with them. He’ll take two more days before coming back.”

People at the management-level of the Research Institute were awfully busy fighting.

But most ordinary researchers were still immersed in experiments and cases.

“Okay.” Mu Nan sent the email, checked that there was no omission, and turned off the computer.

He reached out to slowly close the computer.

His eyelashes hung down for a long moment before he stood up and looked at Qin Ran. Digging out something from his pocket, he handed it directly to her. “This is what grandma left for me.”

Looking down, Qin Ran saw a black sign of translucent material with a faint “Ning” word on it.

It was Grandpa’s.

Instead of taking it, she raised an eyebrow and closed Mu Nan’s hand. “It’s for you. Take it.”

Then, she held her milk in one hand and her phone in the other and seemed to be sending a message.

Downstairs, Mu Nan looked at her thin back and pursed his thin lips. “Mu Ying was kicked out by my mother. She gave her 30,000 yuan to last until she becomes an adult.”

“I see.” Qin Ran waved back casually at him.

Had Mu Nan not mentioned her out of the blue, she would have forgotten this person.

“Brother Mu Nan.” Cheng Mu yawned sleepily. “Tomorrow, Cheng Jin will take you to the attached school. The entrance examination is rather strict, so be prepared for it.”

“Thank you.” Mu Nan nodded at him.

Waving his hands, Cheng Mu suddenly thought of something else. “Your father’s transfer procedures have also been completed. He’ll be transferred to the First Hospital tomorrow.”

Mu Nan nodded.

He silently calculated the costs in his heart and felt even more determined.

He bid farewell to Cheng Mu and Cheng Shui before heading upstairs.

Behind him, Cheng Shui looked at Mu Nan’s back and couldn’t help but bite on his cigarette. “This Mu Nan is a man of high aspirations and has a promising future.”

“Miss Qin’s family members are all a little eccentric.” Cheng Mu wasn’t too surprised. “Is he as impressive as Miss Qin?”

“No, he falls short.” Cheng Shui thought of the black wooden sign he just saw and laughed. “This family is pretty impressive.”

He had naturally checked Ning Wei’s family’s information when he arranged their housing.

He knew that Mu Nan’s father was in a vegetative state.

“Mu Nan is like Miss Qin…” Cheng Mu thought for a moment. “He’s not like his Dad at all.”

“Don’t be like Boss and focus too much attention on other people’s looks.” Cheng Shui glanced at him.

Cheng Mu looked back expressionlessly and stopped talking to him.

…

Upstairs, in Qin Ran’s room.

She came out of the shower at 1 am.

While wiping her hair, she walked to the window and opened it.

After March, Beijing wasn’t as cold anymore.

She stood by the window for a long while, still wiping her hair.

She looked calmly at the quiet manor.

After a long time.

Reaching out, she took out her phone and activated the secondary card. There were only three contacts on this secondary card. She directly clicked on the number 1—

[Ah Jiu, I’m still alive.]
