Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Chapter 104: Mr. Cheng Wants to See You

The people in the dressing room had yet to react to Cheng Juan.

Qin Ran returned to her senses and put on her peak cap again. She cleared her throat and then said, “As long as it existed before, I can find it.”

Cheng Juan glanced at her and nodded.

Then, he turned and let her sit down. “Watch your hand.”

“I know.” Qin Ran sat down on a stool and began to restore the data.

Qin Yu finally reacted. “Qin Ran, are you going to destroy the evidence completely?!”

She took a step forward, but before she could even touch Qin Ran, a cold comb blocked her.

Looking up, she saw a lazy face.

Cheng Juan glanced at her lazily and said calmly, “Miss, please don’t disturb her.”

Qin Yu glanced at him and opened her mouth, but no words came out. Cheng Juan turned over and threw the comb on the table without even looking at her.

The people in the dressing room had yet to react so fast.

But when Qin Ran opened the programmer and started to input a series of characters smoothly, they were all attracted by her hands.

When Qin Ran did programming, it was a feast for the eyes.

Data popped up one after another and she didn’t even look at the keyboard.

Her hands flew quickly.

Ning Qing didn’t know what Qin Ran was doing at first, but when Qin Ran’s hand touched the keyboard and her lazy posture suddenly turned serious, Ning Qing froze subconsciously.

Other than Qiao Sheng, Xu Yaoguang, and the others who didn’t understand the database in the least bit, even Ning Qing and the babyface who didn’t know anything forgot to respond. They just stared blankly at Qin Ran as she pressed the characters one by one.

Within twenty minutes, Qin Ran recovered the surveillance videos.

She turned the computer to one side and raised an eyebrow at Cheng Juan. “It’s recovered.”

Cheng Juan had already seen her extraordinary talent before, so he wasn’t surprised. He handed the computer to Director Ding and said, “Take a look.”

The people in the room were still in a trance.

They had yet to react.

Director Ding also froze for a while before taking over the computer.

Especially Qin Yu. In her eyes, Qin Ran was talentless and her grades were basically at the bottom. She didn’t believe that Qin Ran knew how to program at all.

Director Ding didn’t speak and just opened the video that Qin Ran had recovered.

The video turned on—it was a gray surveillance video.

After zooming in, everyone in the room could see the clear figure on the computer monitor. A girl with a utility knife in her hand cut Qin Yu’s violin strings very carefully.

In less than a minute, the girl turned her head.

Her profile was seen very clearly on the computer screen.

Qiao Sheng said in shock, “Wu Yan?! How could it be her?!”

The other people in the room didn’t know Wu Yan, but they could see that the person wasn’t Qin Ran.

Hence, they needn’t speak further about the truth.

“So it really wasn’t Student Qin Ran,” Director Ding found his voice and said dryly.

Nobody responded.

Qiao Sheng and Ning Qing looked over from the computer to Qin Ran. Ning Qing was especially shocked as she had never imagined that Qin Ran could recover the data.

She looked at Qin Ran, her pupils contracting slightly. Finally, she was dazed and shocked.

It was as if she had seen a ghost.

Qiao Sheng closed his mouth and raised his hand mechanically without saying anything.

Qin Yu felt the gaze of others looking at Qin Ran. She didn’t expect that the person who had cut the strings wasn’t Qin Ran, nor did she expect her to restore the data. She actually hid such a hand!

The atmosphere was dull and stuffy. Qin Ran was silent for a while before she almost exploded.

She touched the cap and pinched Cheng Juan’s sleeves before whispering, “Let’s go.”

Cheng Juan lowered his head and looked at the two thin white fingers clutching his sleeves.

From this angle, he could only see her dark brim cap and her slightly pursed lips.

Cheng Juan had lectured Qin Ran’s mother before.

Qin Ran’s eyes had been red when he came. He didn’t need to imagine what kind of scene Qin Ran had faced before he came.

Cheng Juan didn’t leave.

His eyes swept across the people in the dressing room and he said very politely, “So, don’t you need to apologize? There are so many people here and yet you slandered the girl casually without a single piece of evidence. Aren’t you impressive?”

He said this sentence lightly.

But Director Ding and Xu Yaoguang were terrified.

The two of them immediately apologized to Qin Ran.

It was only right that they apologized. By bringing a little girl to the dressing room without second words, it did seem like they had been a bit of a bully.

Xu Yaoguang apologized and couldn’t help but glance at Qin Ran.

He didn’t expect Cheng Juan to know Qin Ran, and for them to be so close. It was fine that they knew each other, but he was even protecting her?

Qin Yu hadn’t reacted yet and she didn’t even expect it was Wu Yan who had cut her strings.

Cheng Juan took Qin Ran away. Before he left, he glanced sideways at Qin Yu.

**

Lu Zhaoying didn’t say much to Pan Mingyue.

It was mainly Lu Zhaoying talking, and Pan Mingyue didn’t say a word from beginning to end.

The car stopped at the intersection.

Cheng Juan stopped on the side and didn’t go in. He lifted his chin in the direction of the car and motioned for Qin Ran to go in.

Qin Ran moved slowly towards the car.

When she got into the car, Cheng Juan took out his phone and called someone.

The phone rang once and was picked up.

Cheng Juan put his hand in his pocket and looked at the crowd in the distance before saying casually, “Principal Xu, I need you to help me find someone…”

As he spoke, inconspicuous anger flickered across his lazy eyes.

After he made the call, he put his phone back.

Then, he walked towards the car calmly.

Lu Zhaoying put his hand on the back of his seat and tilted his head to smile at Qin Ran with a raised eyebrow. “Qin Ran, what did you do? Why did you come late?”

Cheng Juan opened the door on the right and heard Lu Zhaoying saying this. He looked up and said in a dull voice, “Lu Zhaoying.”

“Yeah?” Lu Zhaoying responded.

“Don’t talk too much, let me rest,” Cheng Juan sat down firmly, closed his eyes, and said lazily.

Lu Zhaoying: “…”

The car drove slowly outside.

The place Qian Dui had chosen wasn’t a club or a private restaurant but at the familiar En Yu Hotel.

Cheng Juan was very controlling of Qin Ran’s diet.

But today, he broke the rule and ordered a boiled meat dish that Qian Dui had ordered only for him to remove last time.

Qin Ran sat beside Cheng Juan, and Qian Dui was on her other side.

She held her chopsticks in her hand and lowered her head. She inadvertently poked her plate with her chopsticks, and her black hair slid across her brow bone, her eyes as cold as usual.

Qin Ran looked dispirited and didn’t sit up until the waiter brought the boiled meat dish over to her.

Lu Zhaoying and the others sat down to eat. After so many days, they were pretty close.

“Qian Dui, how did you know Qin Ran?” Lu Zhaoying wasn’t interested in the dishes. He held his chopsticks and looked at Qian Dui without eating.

Both Cheng Mu and Hao Dui listened intently.

Qian Dui looked at Lu Zhaoying, thought for a while, and then said, “I knew her from a case.”

Lu Zhaoying’s eyes lit up. “What case?”

Qian Dui didn’t speak and just lowered his head to eat. Damn it, he turned into that cold Qian Dui again.

“Fine, then let’s talk about Poison Wolf.” Lu Zhaoying leaned back in his chair, a little bored. “Hao Dui, have you found his hideout?”

Hao Dui shook his head. “No. We went to three locations, but they moved away in advance.”

They chatted amongst themselves.

Cheng Mu didn’t dare to speak and sent a WeChat message to Hao Dui: [Did you find that Qian Dui seems to respect Ms. Qin very much?]

Hao Dui: [A little.]

Cheng Mu sent another message: [Don’t you find it strange? Qian Dui has first-class merit and his ability is obvious to all. The superiors even wanted to transfer him to Beijing several times. Although Ms. Qin’s computing skills are impressive, does it really render him like this?]

Hao Dui: [That’s why Young Master Lu asked, but Qian Dui’s lips are sealed.]

After dinner, it was almost eight o’clock.

Qin Ran returned to class for self-study. Cheng Juan picked up a phone call and didn’t return to the school clinic.

Cheng Mu saw Cheng Juan’s cold eyes and couldn’t help but shiver.

**

The Lin family’s house.

Qin Yu embarrassed herself today and came back in a depressed mood. She didn’t dare to tell Lin Jinxuan and Lin Qi.

She was afraid that they would be disappointed and afraid that they would find out Qin Ran had restored the surveillance video.

God knew how shocked she had been when she saw Qin Ran restoring the surveillance video.

“Yu’er, are you okay?” Lin Qi and Lin Jinxuan were discussing the Yun Cheng Development Zone when they saw Qin Yu.

She was holding her mobile phone silently, as if in a daze.

Qin Yu returned to her senses and said quickly, “I was just thinking about finding Teacher Wei.”

Lin Qi smiled gently and comforted her. “It’s alright, there are still a few days left. There’s no need to be nervous.”

At this time, Aunt Zhang came in and said, “Master, there’s a gentleman called Mr. Cheng outside who wants to see you.”
