“You’re kidding, how could Ran Ran possibly fail?!” Nan Huiyao glared at him. “She even got full marks for the perverted Mathematics paper in the college entrance examination.”
Xing Kai immediately unscrewed his drink and handed it to her, smiling. “Sister Nan, you’re right, you’re right.”
Qin Ran was the top scorer of the college entrance examination, after all.
“The seniors said that last year’s papers were difficult enough, and a lot of people failed.” Ignoring him, Nan Huiyao turned to look at Qin Ran, poking her chopsticks into the bowl. “It’ll be even more difficult this year. Our year really has it hard. Forget it if our college entrance examination was so hard, but now, even the college exam is still so difficult…”
Even the Automation Department’s seniors were keeping their fingers crossed for them.
Qin Ran slowly ate while listening to them silently.
Only at the end did she suddenly look up. “What course did you guys study last semester?”
Xing Kai paused with a bottle in his hand and blankly glanced at her.
The chopsticks in Nan Huiyao’s hand also paused, and she looked up in a daze.
After a long while, Xing Kai stiffly said, “We did all the basic courses. Advanced mathematics, computer basics, college English, and matter.”
Beijing University’s progress was considerably fast. Qin Ran counted and realized they hadn’t learned engineering drawing and digital electronics.
After finis.h.i.+ng her meal, she put down her chopsticks and put away her tableware.
Opposite, Nan Huiyao and Xing Kai held their chopsticks and stared motionless at her.
Qin Ran stood up with her tableware and tossed her phone into her pocket. Seeing their still figures, she bent down slightly to knock on the table, her eyebrow raised. “I’m going to the library.”
They finally reacted and quickly nodded.
Only when Qin Ran disappeared in the light and shadow did they return to their senses.
They exchanged glances.
“Sister Nan, what did Sister Ran just ask us?” Xing Kai suddenly said.
Nan Huiyao knocked her head on the table. “She asked what course we were studying.”
“Cough, cough…” Finally returning to his senses, he put down his chopsticks and glanced at her. “I always thought she was studying Automation courses in the library.”
Since Qin Ran had a high IQ, he always thought it wouldn’t be a big problem for her to study two majors.
After all, she was a fighter among geniuses.
“Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered that all the books on her desk were about nuclear engineering. She already studied the next semester’s topics and did a bunch of weird nuclear engineering exercises,” Nan Huiyao blankly replied.
She had all kinds of abnormal nuclear engineering exercises, but none on automation.
Xing Kai was speechless.
What kind of operation was this…
Why hadn’t she taken a single look at automation since the start of the semester?!

This Wednesday, Qin Ran’s schedule was packed in the afternoon, but she didn’t have lessons in the evening.
Before she arrived in cla.s.s, Qin Ling called her.
Tossing the backpack onto her back with one hand, she held her phone in the other and put on her headphones.
On the other end, Qin Ling squatted on the side of the road. Instead of eavesdropping, Qin Xiuchen stood by the car, waiting for him. Qin Ling glanced behind, then put a hand beside his mouth and whispered, “Sister, can we have dinner with Uncle tonight?”
“Dinner?” Qin Ran glanced at the library. Since she was still on the phone, she didn’t go in and pulled on her sweater.
“I’m going to City C with Uncle tomorrow. I’ll only be back a month later.” Qin Ling’s voice was low, and he glanced at Qin Xiuchen, tilting his head.
City C was the ancient capital of Shan Cheng.
Leaning against the wall with clear eyes, Qin Ran didn’t reject the invitation. “Give me the address.”
Qin Ling gestured an “OK” sign to Qin Xiuchen and replied in an excited voice, “Do you have a cla.s.s in the afternoon? Should Uncle and I come to pick you up?”
“Up to you.” Qin Ran played with the headphones cable in one hand and replied nonchalantly, “Call me when you reach.”
She said a few more words and then hung up.
Then, she clicked on Cheng Juan’s profile and told him not to come tonight.
Right after that, a message from Yan Xi popped up—
[Great G.o.d, we chose three locations for the MV. Which one do you think is better?]

He sent three photos consecutively, all of which were introductions.
Qin Ran just casually glanced at them and saw that the second picture was in City C, the same address as Qin Ling’s reality show.
City C was an ancient capital and had many cultural monuments there. She casually glanced at it and randomly chose an address.
On the other end, Yan Xi stared at his phone and got his answer after three seconds.
Tilting his head, he glanced at Boss w.a.n.g and put down the stick in his hand. “The Great G.o.d chose City C.”
“City C?” Boss w.a.n.g nodded. “Then, I’ll let the partner contact City C. We might have to wait a few days.”
He went out to contact the partner.
The little a.s.sistant next to him asked, “Why did she choose City C? It isn’t part of our best plan, right? Brother Yan, haven’t you already struck it out because it’s too far?”
Among the three locations, two of them already had strategies, and the partners were already in touch.
Only City C hadn’t faced negotiation due to Yan Xi’s personal preferences, despite the partner’s interest.
“What do you know?” Boss w.a.n.g took the phone and sneered. “This is Big Boss’s chosen address.”
Father chose it, so how could Yan Xi refuse?

At 4:30 pm, Qin Xiuchen went to the elementary school to complete the leave procedures for Qin Ling. After taking a set of exercises and papers, he took Qin Ling to the car and brought him to find Qin Ran.
He was still riding in the studio’s private car today.
Both of them sat in the back seats, while the manager drove. He drove to the sidewalk and headed directly towards the university town.
He remembered Qin Ling saying that Qin Ran was studying there.
But he didn’t know which school she was in. Glancing at the rearview mirror, he asked, “Xiao Ling, which school is your sister in?”
Qin Xiuchen also glanced over and tilted his head with a curious smile on his lips.
He knew nothing about Qin Ran.
Qin Ling always kept it a secret.
As for Qin Hanqiu… He seemed very afraid of his daughter and only occasionally said a few things, like how she liked playing games too.
Qin Ling sat upright and placed his hands on his knees, looking like a stern old man. “Beijing University,” he slowly said.
She was also at Beijing University?
The manager glanced at the rearview mirror curiously. “Is she also in the Arts Department?”
He remembered that Qin Yu was studying in the Arts Department at Beijing University.
Entering Beijing University already proved her extraordinariness.
“No, she’s in the Physics Department.” Qin Ling didn’t know whether his sister wanted to learn automation or nuclear engineering.
Having been with Qin Xiuchen for a while, the manager naturally knew the affairs of the several universities and also knew Beijing University’s four major departments.
Upon hearing Qin Ling slowly reveal that she was in the Physics Department, his eyes widened in shock, completely surprised by this answer. “Your sister is in one of the four major departments?”
Beijing University’s four major departments weren’t comparable, and students had to enter without bonus points or policies.
Those who could enter the four major departments weren’t ordinary people.
Looking serious and indifferent, Qin Ling just raised his head and calmly replied, “Yeah.”
“How come I’ve never heard her say so?” The manager thought of how she had only said Beijing back when he had asked her.
She hadn’t mentioned Beijing University, much less the four major departments.
Qin Ling looked away, seemingly puzzled. “Why does she have to tell you?”
The manager was speechless.
Feeling very complicated, he drove to Beijing University’s gate and waited for Qin Ran.
They arrived at 5:30 pm when Qin Ran was about to end cla.s.s.
Carrying his backpack, Qin Ling got out of the car with his phone. With deliberately suppressed excitement in his eyes, he stared at the gate intensely for a long while.
Qin Xiuchen put on a mask, then put on a huge and ugly long windbreaker that hid his figure. He b.u.t.toned the hat of the windbreaker too.
Then, he stood behind Qin Ling.
The manager glanced at his windbreaker, baffled.
This windbreaker was from a very ordinary street stall. It had the same width from top to bottom and had no cutting, so it looked uglier than a sack.
Even if Qin Xiuchen was a natural clothes rack, with his face hidden, he looked like a 1.8m bucket from the back. Much less his fans, even his own mother wouldn’t recognize him.
Parking the car and walking over, the manager glanced at the glorious historical gate of Beijing University and whispered, “Film Emperor Qin, your niece is a student of the four major departments. I wonder if she’ll have a chance of entering the research inst.i.tute in the future. How long has the Qin family been isolated from there?”
Everyone kept track of the Qin family’s decline. After the Old Master’s death, the direct line of descent was practically wiped out. Hence, the ensuing collateral civil war. In the end, the Qin family lost control of the research inst.i.tute and was replaced by the Ouyang family. Years later, after the disappearance of the Qin family’s direct line, no one from the collateral relatives had been selected.
