Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xu Yaoguang’s voice was quite light, but his hands pressed tightly on the table.
Qiao Sheng threw the basketball on the ground, looked at Xu Yaoguang, and then at Qin Ran. He didn’t know what these two people ant.
Q?
Who was this?
There was no change in Qin Ran’s expression. She just looked sideways, cold and dry. “No.”
Then, she stood up with her head slightly lowered, and the hair on her forehead slipped across her brow bone. “Make way, you’re so troubleso.”
Xu Yaoguang wanted to say sothing.
But the phone in his pocket rang at this ti.
He took it out and looked at it. It was Qin Yu.
Qin Ran had already passed by him while he was distracted.
Xu Yaoguang squeezed his phone and thought for a while before answering Qin Yu’s call first.
“Young Master Xu, have you taken your leave?” Qin Yu’s voice on the other end of the phone was very sweet. “When are you coming to Beijing? I’ll co to the airport to pick you up and let my aunt book a hotel for you.”
“I’ve taken my leave, but Qiao Sheng might not go.” Xu Yaoguang stared at Qin Ran’s back and said lightly, “I don’t need you to pick up.”
“No need?” After hearing that Qiao Sheng wasn’t coming, Qin Yu paused and didn’t say anything else.
Xu Yaoguang said a few things perfunctorily and then hung up.
He chased after Qin Ran, but she had already gone downstairs.
Qiao Sheng also ca out with his phone and looked down from the corridor. “Young Master Xu, what’s the matter with Q?”
“She used to be a mber of OST. One week before the winter ga three years ago, she took a phone call and left without saying anything. After that, nobody could contact her again.” Xu Yaoguang also looked downstairs and saw that Qin Ran was already there.
She was pulling on her cap and calling soone.
Qiao Sheng nodded and then whispered, “So you know that she created the three God cards?”
“You indeed know,” Xu Yaoguang turned sideways and said lightly.
Qiao Sheng touched his head. “I only knew because I happened to see Sun God looking for Sister Ran that night. So Sister Ran is Q? Why haven’t I heard of that before?”
Xu Yaoguang went downstairs unhurriedly and said after a while, “Have you seen Qin Ran’s arena win rate?”
“I don’t know.” Qiao Sheng bounced his basketball with his other hand.
He had only seen Qin Ran’s account last night.
“The data at that ti was 100%. Every player in China and abroad knew of the solo madman Q, who had countless fans.” Xu Yaoguang looked down and then said lightly, “If you have ti, you can ask the mbers of OST about their team’s hand speed ranking.
“It’s not that you haven’t heard of it, it’s because she’s from the first district. Let ask you, have you seen an account from the first district? The mbers of the first district are all mixed internationally.” Xu Yaoguang glanced at Qiao Sheng again. “In the entire OST team, only Yang Fei is in the first district. He probably has 17 stars. Qin Ran should be in the first district too, but I didn’t see clearly yesterday.”
“Fans of eSports shouldn’t say that they have never heard of the solo madman Q. She’s a lone wolf-type character. Just search for her on the Internet and you’ll know how popular she is.” Xu Yaoguang was rarely so talkative.
Kyushu Tour was very popular now, and the first district had already closed three years ago. There weren’t many people online, but there were many secluded masters in the region.
Qiao Sheng only reacted now.
He understood what Xu Yaoguang had ant by writing Q and 700 .
So that was Sister Ran’s hand speed?
Yang Fei’s hand speed was 600 , and he was already so popular that his fans could line up in a circle around the Earth.
When it had been rumored on Weibo that ng Xinran’s hand speed was faster than Yang Fei’s, she had soared to 3 million fans and had exploded in popularity. If the fans of OST knew that Qin Ran was not only the creator of the three God cards but also had a hand speed that exceeded Yang Fei’s, chaos would probably ensue?

After school at night, Qin Ran didn’t go to the school doctor’s office nor to class.
She went directly to her bedroom and turned on the computer on the table.
The computer page was still a very clean desert color and there was no icon on it.
She poured herself a glass of water, then sat in a chair and hit a few keys. After the editor ca out, she reached out and started typing.
She finished typing after less than twenty minutes.
Qin Ran then turned on her video and connected to Chang Ning.
“I’ve settled the question, I’ll send it to your email now.” Qin Ran leaned on the back of the chair, picked up the glass of water, and took a sip casually.
She didn’t turn on her cara and only used the speaker.
Chang Ning was obviously smiling and couldn’t suppress the joy in his tone. “You’re really fast. Send it to quickly.”
Qin Ran drank water with one hand and held the mouse in the other, her movents slow. “Let warn you, my questions are a little perverted. You should consider it carefully and then decide if you want to use it.”
“It’s okay.” Chang Ning wasn’t bothered.
“Aren’t you afraid of not recruiting anyone?” Qin Ran put down the glass of water and began to send the docunts to Chang Ning.
“Not recruiting anyone? You seem to think too lowly of yourself?” Chang Ning was silent for a while and then seed to laugh. “With the release of your reputation as the Lone Wolf, there are countless people vying for the spot. You’re still afraid that nobody will be recruited?”
Qin Ran clicked send. “Fine, as long as you’re not afraid.”
She heard Lin Siran and Xia Fei’s voices outside the door, so she leaned over and turned off the speaker. “Look at it slowly, my roommate is back.”
She didn’t wait for Chang Ning to answer.
As soon as the computer screen was dark, Lin Siran pushed the door open and handed her a lollipop. “I saw Pan Mingyue on the way, and she asked to bring this to you.”
Qin Ran nodded, peeled the wrapper off, and put it into her mouth.

Saturday morning.
Qin Ran went to the school doctor’s office to say goodbye.
“I’m going out.” Qin Ran slowly ate her porridge and estimated the ti. “I’m leaving this afternoon, and I’ll be back next Thursday.”
Cheng Juan handed the finished specin to Qin Ran, picked up the coat hanging on the chair, and threw it on the sofa. “Where?”
“I’m visiting an elder.” Qin Ran put down her chopsticks. “He’s a little persistent, so I’m going to persuade him to stop.”
Cheng Juan raised an eyebrow and glanced at her. Then, he pursed his lips and chuckled. “We’re leaving tonight as well. We will be back next week.”
“Do you want to send you back?” Lu Zhaoying glanced at Qin Ran with a hand on his chin.
He probably thought she was returning to Ninghai Village.
Qin Ran shook her head.
There was another grass hanging around her neck.
Cheng Mu paused when he handed a cup of tea to Qin Ran.
“Miss Qin, on your neck...” Cheng Mu pointed to the grass. “Is it a new one?”
“Yeah, my deskmate gave another one.” Qin Ran reached out and turned the green grass around on her neck, then asked casually, “Do you want one too?”
Cheng Mu shook his head and stared at the grass. It looked too realistic.
It was so realistic that he didn’t believe it was fake.
“My deskmate said that she has a vegetable plot in her house, and even if she doesn’t use it, her kitten would secretly eat it.” Qin Ran propped her legs up and leaned back. “If you want it, I can ask her to bring you one.”
A vegetable plot?
Cheng Mu imdiately shook his head. “There’s no need.” He was a person with ideals and wouldn’t use high imitation goods even if he was poor.
“Oh.” Since he didn’t want it, Qin Ran didn’t force him.
After saying goodbye, Qin Ran went back to her bedroom to clean up.
She didn’t pack much, just stuffed a few clothes, a book, and a bottle of transparent water into her bag.
Instead of leaving imdiately, she went to the hospital.

It was Saturday, so Ning Qing and Ning Wei were both there when Qin Ran went over.
“Yu’er originally wanted to bring Mu Nan and Mu Ying to Beijing, but there aren’t many concert tickets, so I’ll bring them next ti.” Ning Qing was talking to Ning Wei.
Mu Ying heard this and her mood fell into the abyss before she had a chance to feel happy...
Qin Yu had sent two tickets, so shouldn’t Ning Qing have another one in her hands?
Who was she bringing?
Ning Wei just smiled. “Why would you bring them there? They would only embarrass you.”
“Mom.” Mu Ying frowned.
“I’m going to the airport to fly to Beijing later, so I ca earlier today.” Ning Qing finished speaking, turned her head, and glanced at her. “Are you coming with ?”
Mu Ying was talking to Chen Shulan when she heard this and involuntarily looked up at Qin Ran.
She pursed her lips.
Qin Ran leaned against the table and stood lazily. “No.”
“You...” Ning Qing was speechless. She walked to Qin Ran’s side, took out a ticket form her pocket, and handed it to her. “This ticket is for you, it’s your choice whether you want to go.”
Qin Ran raised an eyebrow.
Before she could speak, Chen Shulan leaned on the pillow and coughed twice. “Ran Ran, go to the doctor and get two pills.”
Qin Ran didn’t want to argue with Ning Qing in front of her grandmother. She took her mobile phone and went directly to Chen Shulan’s attending doctor.
Chen Shulan deliberately directed Qin Ran away to prevent them from quarreling.
Qin Ran was getting impatient with Ning Qing now.
After Qin Ran left, Ning Qing stared at Chen Shulan disapprovingly. “Mom, you’re letting her be again. When will she progress like this? She even said that she would go to Beijing University in her aunt’s house. She’s fastidious but incompetent, and doesn’t she think small? Many people are waiting to mock her.”
The Lin family as well as the ng family...
After hearing Ning Qing, Mu Ying clenched her hands and looked up at Ning Qing in shock. So cousin didn’t tell her aunt about her midterm test results?
She didn’t understand what Qin Ran was thinking.
Chen Shulan lowered her head to drink water and paused.
She looked up, her eyes bright. “Ran Ran... Ran Ran wants to enter Beijing... cough, cough...”
Without saying a word, Chen Shulan coughed violently.
She almost coughed up her lungs.
Her pale face showed abnormal redness.
After a long while, she stopped coughing and gripped Ning Qing’s wrist with hands that were full of gorges. “Ran Ran said she wants to enter Beijing University?”
“Mom, don’t get excited.” Ning Qing patted her back nervously. “She just heard that Yu’er wants to enter Beijing University, so she also said the sa thing. Forget about her grade history, given her current attitude and how she doesn’t want to be an Art student, do you think she can enter Beijing University?”
Chen Shulan coughed again and leaned on the pillow. She glanced out the door with her turbid eyes. “Regardless, Ran Ran is so smart, she can definitely enter Beijing University.”
Ning Qing didn’t know what to say.
The old lady had been biased towards Qin Ran since young and always believed in whatever she said.
“Just talk about it amongst yourselves, don’t bring it up in front of outsiders.” Ning Qing looked at the ti and picked up her bag. “Lest outsiders mock us.”
Then, she instructed Ning Wei to take good care of Chen Shulan and hurriedly left.
**
When Ning Qing left, Chen Shulan rembered sothing.
She took a dilapidated box from under the pillow and handed it to Mu Ying. “Put this into your cousin’s bag.”
Then, she laid back and closed her eyes. She was extrely tired from coughing for so long.
Mu Ying took a look at it. It was very heavy and she didn’t know what was inside.
But she wasn’t too interested.
Qin Ran’s bag was placed on the edge of the table. Mu Ying opened the zipper and a book fell out of the bag.
Mu Ying put the wooden box in the black bag and bent down to pick up the book. It was a brand new book in a foreign language, and she couldn’t tell what language it was in.
When she picked it up and turned the pages, two tickets fell out.
Mu Ying glanced at the two tickets and saw that it was VIP tickets to a concert—
Obviously, this wasn’t sothing that Qin Ran could obtain, so Qin Yu had probably sent them to her.
Her hand tightened on the tickets and Mu Ying pursed her lips. Qin Ran had obviously said that she wasn’t going to Beijing and didn’t want to watch the concert, so what was with these two tickets?
“Mu Ying, why are you taking such a long ti to pick up the book?” Mu Nan had been sitting in a chair by the window, morizing phrases with his head lowered.
Mu Ying didn’t speak and just clutched the ticket in her hand.
Qin Ran held two pills in her hand as she thought of what the doctor had said and looked up. She stayed in the corridor for a long while before pushing the door of Chen Shulan’s ward open.
Once inside, she saw Mu Ying holding her book while standing beside the table.
Qin Ran wasn’t bothered and handed the pills to Ning Wei in a rather bad mood. She let her put the pills in water for Chen Shulan to drink.
“Cousin, why didn’t you give the opportunity if you didn’t want to attend the concert?” Mu Ying bit her lip and said resentfully, “You obviously heard aunt saying that she wanted to bring and Mu Nan along, so why didn’t you give us these two tickets?”
Mu Nan stood up and took the book in Mu Ying’s hand coldly. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
“It’s not nonsense.” Mu Ying walked over to Qin Ran and threw the two tickets in front of her face. “These are VIP tickets for the concert. Where else could she have gotten it from other than Cousin Yu’er?”
