It was succinct.
Lu Zhaoying stared at the screen for a while but decided that it was rude to invade soone elses privacy. When Qin Ran ca out, he curiously asked, Qin Ran, your friend?
Having known Qin Ran for so long, Lu Zhaoying knew her pretty well. It wasnt easy to be considered her friend.
Qin Ran casually took over the cell phone and glanced at it. Her expression didnt change much. You can say so.
She went outside to receive the call.
Seeing how calm she looked, Lu Zhaoying did not ask more. That person probably wasnt anyone important.
Lu Zhaoying went back to his seat and went through the group chat.

[Jiang Dongye]: @Cheng Juan say sothing
Lu Zhaoying knew right away that Jiang Dongye had t with so obstacles yet again while looking for Gu Xichi.
He chuckled. Master Juan, Young Master Jiang is looking for you.
Cheng Juan was fiddling with the anatomy model when he heard this. He didnt even look up as he asked, Gu Xichi?
Bingo!
Cheng Juan put the scalpel aside and coughed softly. Theres no point in looking for . Im just a doctor, what can I help him with.
Lu Zhaoying was speechless.
Cheng Juan was quietly observing the anatomy model, ignoring Lu Zhaoying.
His cell phone rang and he picked it up.
Dad.
Old Jiangs birthday party is at the end of the month. Will you be coming back?
Cheng Juan leaned against the edge of the table. Ill see how when the ti cos.
Old Master Cheng never really had much expectations or demands of his youngest son. Alright.
Capital.
He hung up the call.
The few middle-aged n in the room couldnt help but say to Old Master Cheng, Dad, arent you too indulgent towards Third Brother? Its been so many years, look at his guts now. He doesnt stay in the military team, he left the research institute after just two weeks, and the money we gave him to start his business wouldve shut if not for Second Siss managent.
Young people are fickle like this, its normal. Old Master Cheng was standing before the bookshelf.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth and turned towards Old Master Cheng.
This old man had been strict for the greater part of his life. But when it ca to this son of his, he was completely indulgent.
Who in the capital didnt know Young Master Juan? He was soone that nobody wanted to offend.
He was more prominent than anyone in the Cheng Family.

At the sa ti.
The Lin familys house.
Xinran, hows it like in your new environnt with new classmates? Lin Qi asked.
ng Xinran took a bite of her food and casually said, Its alright, just that the students of Heng Chuan First Middle School like to kick a fuss out of nothing.
They asked her about OST internal news or about the Yunguang Consortium as if theyd never been exposed to the outside world.
Youre a little celebrity, isnt it normal that theyre asking you things like these? Lin Qi smiled. How could that small place be compared to the capital?
The greatest leader theyd ever seen was but Feng Loucheng on the news.
Ning Qing sat on the other side for this al. She wanted to know why ng Xinran was considered a little celebrity but did not ask.
Youre in Ninth Class, right? I rember Ran Rans there too, have you t? Lin Jinxuan was holding his chopsticks as he asked.
Whos Ran Ran? ng Xinran looked up.
Qin Ran is Yuers sister. Shes in the Ninth Class. Lin Qi explained.
ng Xinran had heard of Qin Yu, but no one in the Lin family had ntioned Qin Ran before.
Only now that Lin Qi had explained did she know that Qin Ran was associated with the Lins.
Qin Ran left a rather deep impression on her, but she couldnt see how Ning Qing and Qin Ran were associated at all.
Ive heard of her, but weve never talked, ng Xinran said.
After dinner.
Housekeeper Zhang went upstairs to hand ng Xinran so milk. She was polite and careful.
Aunt Zhang, why havent I seen Qin Ran in the Lin family before? Isnt she Qin Yus sister? ng Xinran received the milk and asked.
She doesnt live here. Housekeeper Zhang furrowed her brows, evidently unwilling to say much about this.
She was wondering who that cool and distant girl was, but as it turned out, she was just Qin Yus sister, a girl who was barely the stepdaughter of the Lin family.
ng Xinran nodded in understanding and did not ask more when she saw Housekeeper Zhangs attitude.
Housekeeper Zhang went downstairs.
She saw Ning Qing, who was in a daze with her cell phone in her hand.
Aunt Zhang. Ning Qing kept her cell phone.
Ms. Biao is a mber of Team OST and a professional gar in Kyushu Tour with more than a million fans on Weibo. Shes very famous online, Housekeeper Zhang said slowly.
Ning Qing did not know what Team OST was, but when she heard about her being a gar, she didnt think much about it.
And yet, the fact that she had more than a million fans caught her attention. Ning Qing widened her eyes. More than a million?
That many?
Housekeeper Zhang looked at Ning Qings expression and knew right away that she despised gars.
She smiled. Madam, you may not know this, but Team OST belongs to the Yunguang Consortium. Every mber is a part of them.
Ning Qing simply smiled when she heard her ntion the Yunguang Consortium again.
She did not know what else to say.
But she knew that no matter how well she did in the industry, she would only reach the tip of the iceberg.
She took her cell phone out and gave Qin Yu a call.

Friday.
Qin Ran arrived early and rested her head on her desk.
A group of people was huddled around ng Xinrans desk again.
Ive seen ng Xinrans Weibo account, shes got more than a million fans. The boy sitting in front of Qin Ran showed two other classmates his cell phone screen.
He turned around to see a head.
It was Qin Ran on the desk.
Her uniform was under her arms and she seed to be sleeping.
Although she was all slumped over her desk, it still wasnt a good idea to provoke her.
Lin Siran looked at the boy and whispered, Dont disturb her.
This ng Xinran is rich. Just her watch costs about a million yuan, another boy whispered to Lin Siran and the few of them. I finally got through a round under her guidance. Shes good at gaming, shes pretty, her family is rich, shes a winner at life.
The other classmates enjoyed watching ng Xinran play. She was fast and accurate and extrely good at giving instructions.
She was helping people play on their accounts, and they often recorded the screen as she played.
The second lesson of the morning ended.
20 minutes break.
Qiao Sheng walked over to Qin Ran as he saw her get up. He placed his chin on her desk and said, Sister Ran, ng Xinran has tickets, do you want to go and watch the exhibition match with us tomorrow?
Qin Ran took out a book, flipped a page, and said, No, Im not going.
He Wen suddenly yelled from behind Qiao Sheng and it sounded like he was playing a ga. Ahhh! Im dead, Im dying! I cant lose this round!
How noisy.
Qin Ran rembered him. When Li Airong rejected her entry at the door the last ti, he was the first one to leave the classroom with Qiao Sheng.
Hand it over. Qin Ran leaned on the wall and asked He Wen for the cell phone.
Sister Ran, what are you doing? He Wen glanced up at Qin Ran when he had the ti.
Qin Ran looked at his cell phone screen. Helping you pass the level.
No, Sister Ran, dont kid with . I think Ill go to Ms. ng. He Wen hurriedly said, Sister Ran dont disturb , please. Its a crucial mont now. One more attack and Im gone!
He Wen turned away to look for ng Xinran.
Qin Ran rubbed her nose and went on to read her book.
***
In the afternoon after lunch, the self-revision period.
Qin Ran usually didnt go to the classroom during afternoon self-revision periods. The Ninth Class knew that.
When ng Xinran got back after lunch, she reached for her bag to get the entrance tickets.
A group of them huddled around her again. Classmate ng, let have a ticket too!
ng Xinran unzipped her bag and reached inside.
She couldnt feel any tickets.
ng Xinrans calm expression changed as she unloaded her bags contents onto the table.
There were a lot of expensive lipsticks, but not a single entrance ticket could be seen.
Everyone just exchanged glances.
ng Xinran clenched her fist as her expression stiffened. Who was the first to reach the classroom after lunch?
They werent sure how to react.
Classmate ng
ng Xinran had lost the tickets.
A student committee mber and I ca up first. None of us touched it.
ng Xinran suddenly thought of sothing.
She strode towards Qin Rans desk.
Having been in this class for so long, she knew that Qin Ran was always the last to leave.
Her expression went cold as she pushed Qin Rans desk to aside.
Bam
The textbooks, novels, and other materials were sprawled all over the ground.
Everyone in the class went quiet.
Xia Fei hurriedly said, Dont touch Sister Rans things, she wouldnt
ng Xinran didnt say anything. She couldnt even be bothered to use her hands as she kicked the stack of things.
It was a light kick
But an entrance ticket fell out of a novel.
