Zhou Shan knew that today was the last experimental a.s.sessment.
At noon, he was already waiting without receiving notice from the laboratory.
It made him feel a little uneasy.
Upon seeing Dean Jiang’s call at this moment, he directly answered it. “Qin Ran should have pa.s.sed the C-level experiment, right?”
“She did.” Dean Jiang’s voice was almost floating on the other end of the phone. “I have something else to tell you.”
Breathing a sigh of relief, Zhou Shan’s tone eased. “Go on.”
Dean Jiang paused. “Princ.i.p.al Zhou, are you standing or sitting?”
“Standing, what’s the matter?” Zhou Shan chuckled, his voice thick and low.
“Find a place to sit down, please,” Dean Jiang continued.
Without asking to find out the reason, Zhou Shan just happily sat down on the chair beside him, and then said with a smile, “I’m sitting down. What happened?”
“Oh, it’s nothing much.” Dean Jiang also came to his senses and calmly said, “I just wanted to tell you that our Beijing University’s score this year surpa.s.sed University A’s. We can have our funds and experimental equipment doubled.”

“The results of the a.s.sessment have come out, and the laboratory will arrange an experimental team for you.” Dean Jiang convened a group of people who had been admitted to the laboratory this year. “You have all been randomly a.s.signed. The possibility of being grouped together is small. A series of files have to be transferred and some personnel to be recorded before you finally enter the laboratory.”
He looked in Qin Ran’s direction after speaking.
His lips were curled up unbearably in a smile.
These two days had been a series of surprises.
With a big wave of his hand, he invited everyone to dinner.
Pulling her scarf, Qin Ran pointed in Cheng Wenru and Cheng Juan’s direction, declining President Jiang’s request for a treat.
Dean Jiang looked over and locked eyes with Cheng Juan’s clear and cold gaze immediately. He quickly retracted his gaze, and after bidding farewell to Qin Ran, led the other students out for dinner.
After the experiment cards were scored, they could be brought home as a medal instead of returning them to the laboratory.
Holding 6 cards, Qin Ran walked to Cheng Juan’s side.
Speechless, Cheng Wenru stared at her for a long time before uttering, “Ran Ran, you’re really…”
She didn’t even know what adjective to describe her with.
“Let’s go back and eat first.” Cheng Juan stood up with lazy eyes.
Cheng Wenru came back to her senses, staring at the cards in Qin Ran’s hands, her eyes s.h.i.+ning. “Ran Ran, let me touch your S card. I’ve never seen one before!”
Qin Ran casually handed her the S card.
Fiddling with it in her hand, Cheng Wenru suddenly thought of Qin Ran’s matter and chuckled. “No wonder I haven’t seen you around in a month. You’ve been busy with the a.s.sessment.”
She couldn’t help but sigh at the mention of this.
Why did Qin Ran succeed in the a.s.sessment so casually and even obtained the 1st place after completing 6 experiments…
Qin Ran followed behind them, and the phone in her pocket rang.
She took it out to see it was a call from Qin Hanqiu.
“Ran Ran, I bought you a gift. Where are you now? Let me pa.s.s it to you.” Qin Hanqiu’s voice on the other end of the phone was loud and excited.
Pulling her scarf, Qin Ran thought for a while and didn’t disappoint him.
They met on the pedestrian street of Beijing University.

The news that Qin Ran was successfully admitted to the Physics laboratory spread on the Beijing University forum.
At the same time.
In Qin Yu’s bedroom.
She was lying on the bed, scrolling through Beijing University’s forum. Today, the forum was full of Qin Ran.
She had been admitted to the Physics laboratory…
Her news was everywhere in the post.
Qin Yu was from the Arts Department and hadn’t known about the four big majors at first. After spending a long time in school, she learned the difference between the four departments and the ordinary departments…
She closed the forum, barely suppressing the gus.h.i.+ng jealousy and faint regret in her heart.
She pressed her phone to her chest.
After a long while.
Suddenly thinking of something, she pursed her lips, found Shen Yumin’s WeChat, and stared at her chat messages with her for a long time. Finally, she couldn’t help but reach out and type a message—
[You mentioned previously that the violin song I played sounded like Yan Xi’s song, do you still remember?]
Shen Yumin was an intense fangirl.
She was a maverick in the Shen family and never cared about Qin Yu and Ning Qing’s affairs. She only cared about her idol and was never concerned with the big violin incident.
Qin Yu had noticed it when she talked about Yan Xi before but had only found a few dark style tracks from Yan Xi.
It was only a style of music, but there had been no overlap in the arrangement.
If people like Shen Yumin, who wasn’t very well-versed in music, could remember it so clearly, there must be at least a few overlapping points.
Shen Yumin still didn’t reply after a long while.
Pursing her lips, Qin Yu clicked on the group in the school and found them talking about Qin Ran.
She got up irritably from her bed.
She took her backpack and walked on the streets.
On Sunday, not many people were on the streets. Qin Yu’s phone rang and she glanced at it. Shen Yumin had finally replied to her. She didn’t say anything and simply sent a link.
She wasn’t familiar with her in the first place, so she didn’t feel bad about Shen Yumin’s indifference, and even thanked her.
After replying to her, she took out her earphones, put them in her ears, and clicked on the link.
She casually looked in front.
A familiar figure appeared at the intersection ahead.
She paused, fixing her gaze at the figure that looked very strange when wearing a suit and leather shoes in front of her…
He was tall and had bronze-colored skin. Although handsome, he lacked temperament.
No matter how great the change was, Qin Yu could still recognize him.
It was Qin Hanqiu, whom she had b.u.mped into at the beginning of school before.
She hadn’t taken the meet to heart back then and originally thought that he had returned to the small town long ago. Who knew he was still in Beijing?
She turned her gaze to the shopping bags in his hand, recognizing it as a big jewelry brand. Even during her glory days in the Lin family, this wasn’t something she could casually purchase.
How could Qin Hanqiu have this in his hands?
She was about to choke out “Dad,” but before she could speak, she saw Qin Hanqiu smiling brightly, handing the thing in his hand to a woman.
The woman had a scarf wrapped around her neck, carelessly holding the shopping bag, revealing only half of her delicate face.
Qin Yu’s heart trembled as she stared at her—
Qin Ran!
She couldn’t help but feel mad. Why did Qin Hanqiu have such expensive jewelry? And he even gave it to Qin Ran?
As for Qin Ran, every piece of her clothing was high-end.
What was going on with these two people?
Before she had time to think, a black car stopped, and a middle-aged man got out of the driver’s seat. He opened the rear door and respectfully invited Qin Hanqiu in…
The car slowly drove into the crowd.
“Ran Ran… what are you looking at?” Cheng Wenru came over from the other side and handed her a cup of hot milk tea.
Retracting her gaze and taking the cup from Cheng Wenru, Qin Ran smirked absent-mindedly. “Nothing. I saw wrongly.”
The two walked towards Ting Lan and returned for dinner.
There were many people during the holiday.
Cheng Juan’s car was parked at the school and didn’t drive out. After parking in a spot, he told Cheng Mu to drive it back when there were fewer people.

Over here, Qin Yu returned to her and Ning Qing’s small apartment in a panic.
“Yu’er, are you okay?” These past 6 months, Ning Qing’s life hadn’t been as smooth as in Yun Cheng. Her heart ached every time at the thought of Qin Ran.
Some wrinkles had been added to her face, which was missing the grace of a year ago.
Her beauty was past her prime, but her features were still pretty.
Glancing at her, Qin Yu pursed her lips. “I saw Dad today…”
“Isn’t your Dad in Yun Cheng?” Ning Qing put down the cup in her hand and hesitantly spoke. There was no need for Lin Qi to hide it from them if he came to Beijing.
“The other Dad.” Qin Yu lowered her voice and looked down, covering the expression in her eyes.
It was Qin Hanqiu.
Realizing that it was him, Ning Qing was rather nonchalant. “What’s the big deal? Beijing is such a big place.”
Seeing her expression, Qin Yu squeezed her phone tightly and directly said, “Mom, I saw that a chauffeur picked him up and was very respectful to him. He was also carrying expensive jewelry, which I saw him give to my sister. Where did he get so much money from?”
