Chapter 421: Incident Escalated, My Idol Is in Yunguang Consortium
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Yu realized a few months ago that the previously viral video of Qin Ran’s performance had been deliberately deleted by someone afterward.
At that time, she had fallen into a state of despair and failure from being kicked out of the Violin a.s.sociation.
Who knew that in retrospect, everything seemed strange…
How old was Qin Ran four years ago?
Whenever Ning Qing called the teacher, he said she would skip cla.s.s at will, and skipped a whole week of cla.s.s at most. Chen Shulan never stopped her, and Qin Ran also said she didn’t want to learn the violin for many years from Teacher Xu. Qin Yu simply didn’t believe that under such lack of practice and guidance, she could write such a tune…
She stared at her Weibo post that had reached almost 1 million reviews.
n.o.body realized it when it was deleted previously, but now that her video had been published, some of Yan Xi’s fans certainly heard the similarity between his song and Qin Ran’s tune.
Only the composer knew the disgust of being plagiarized, especially since Qin Ran and Yan Xi knew each other. The repercussions of finding out your friend had plagiarized you were much more severe, and even Film Emperor Qin would feel disgusted by Qin Ran…
Qin Yu knew that the production shows had scripts. Unlike the netizens who believed that Qin Ran had invited Yan Xi, she believed that Qin Xiuchen and the production crew had invited him.
Naturally, based on this point, Yan Xi and Qin Ran were already interlinked. If it was exposed that she had plagiarized her friend’s song…
Staring at the Weibo post, she waited a long while before closing the page.

At the same time.
In Yunjin District.
Butler Qin and Ah Hai came in with grave expressions.
“Butler Qin.” Qin Hanqiu heard them come in and came out from the kitchen, carrying an iron pot. “Can I ask you about the Fourth Master… what kind of person is he?”
“The Fourth Master?” Hearing this name, Butler Qin instantly regained his senses. He turned to Qin Hanqiu with a stern expression. “Has his men found you?”
Qin Hanqiu shook his head and hesitated slightly. “No, just… he has found my second daughter. Is it dangerous?”
Upon hearing this, Butler Qin also heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the sofa. Having checked Qin Yu’s information, he wasn’t very concerned about her. “The Fourth Master is vicious and unrelenting. Second Master, tell your second daughter to keep her distance from him. It won’t do her any good.” He frowned.
Holding his iron pot, Qin Hanqiu seemed deep in thought.
While they were talking, Qin Ling came back with a man in spectacles.
The man had a pair of brown eyes and looked about 27-28 years old. His brown hair was slightly long, and he wore a pair of golden gla.s.ses on the bridge of his nose, his expression rather bright.
“Teacher Ku Ke.” Butler Qin stood up and very respectfully greeted him.
Ku Ke immediately waved his hands. “Please don’t be so courteous. I’m indebted to Mr. Qin.”
They sat down and Butler Qin turned to Teacher Ku Ke. “I heard from the Sixth Master that you’re back to enter the Yunguang Consortium’s headquarters as well.”
“Yes, because my idol is in the Yunguang Consortium,” said Ku Ke as he sat down on the sofa. As a Westerner, he wasn’t reserved at all, and his eyes lit up at the mention of this. “I hope I can enter the Yunguang Consortium’s headquarter’s technical department and partic.i.p.ate in the core activities.”
Qin Hanqiu returned to the kitchen. Everyone present, including Qin Hanqiu and Ah Hai, were well-versed in this profession, especially Ah Hai.
He knew that this Mr. Ku Ke was rather impressive and was even from Continent M. At this time, he had even come to the Yunguang Consortium for someone…
Ah Hai didn’t know much about the Yunguang Consortium’s insiders, but he had heard of the person with the most famous reputation…
“By the way,” said Qin Hanqiu as he poked his head out while holding the pot. “My daughter is coming back this Sat.u.r.day. Teacher Ku Ke, do you have time to eat with us on Sat.u.r.day afternoon?”
“Of course, it’ll be an honor.” Teacher Ku Ke laughed.
Upon hearing this, Qin Hanqiu was even more encouraged.
After the meal.
After was.h.i.+ng the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen, Qin Hanqiu took his phone to his room and closed the door.
He stared at Ning Qing’s phone number for a long while, before finally unblocking it and calling her.
On the other end, Ning Qing was eating with Qin Yu. “Why did you call me?” She pursed her lips.
Qin Yu looked up at her.
Ning Qing mouthed, “It’s your Dad”.
“Yu’er came to find me today.” Qin Hanqiu sounded fuzzy because he had drunk, and his voice was rather loud. “She’s my daughter as well. Although we have no mutual affection, I don’t want to see her jump into the fire pit. Tell her not to cling to the Qin family’s Fourth Master. He’s not a good person.”
Holding the phone, Ning Qing turned to Qin Yu. “Yu’er, who’s the Qin family’s Fourth Master? Your Dad’s telling you not to…”
Qin Yu had already heard what Qin Hanqiu said. Her hands tightened around her chopsticks, and she directly reached out to s.n.a.t.c.h Ning Qing’s phone away. “Why can’t I cling to him? The Fourth Master is my Fourth Uncle, why can’t I return to the Qin family? I’m part of the Qin family as well! You let Qin Ran and Qin Ling return, so why can’t I?! You don’t want me to go back, and you’re even stopping the Fourth Master from doing so?”
Without waiting for Qin Hanqiu’s response, she directly hung up.
Ning Qing stared at her in shock. “Yu’er, how could you speak to him like that?”
Both of them were smart and had relied on both Qin Ran and Qin Hanqiu’s reputation to survive these few months, but Ning Qing never expected Qin Yu to harbor such resentment towards her father.
Slamming the phone down, Qin Yu picked up her chopsticks, paused for a while, and then looked at Ning Qing lightly. “You and Little Aunt have been deceived by him. The Fourth Master is the true person with authority in the Qin family. As for Qin Ling and the others, they’re only struggling without any real power. Otherwise, why do you think they’re still staying in that little community? Because the Fourth Master refuses to acknowledge them, so they can’t stay in the old courtyard. You’re still dreaming of being brought to a prestigious family by them? Mom, dream on!”
Ning Qing was unaware and stared at Qin Yu in shock. “You… You’re speaking the truth?”
“Of course. Fourth Uncle invited us to the old courtyard to eat tomorrow, you’ll know when you see it.” Qin Yu took a deep breath and regained her composure.
She looked away and sneered. “Furthermore, the Fourth Uncle and my Dad are on opposite sides. Based on my observations, Fourth Uncle is about to make his move. Mom, I advise you to stop doing things while relying on their reputation. My sister’s glory is about to come to an end. Dad thinks he’s hiding well in the little community, but he has no idea everything is under Fourth Uncle’s control.”
“What do you mean?” Ning Qing silently looked at her.
Putting down her chopsticks, Qin Yu glanced at her. “Do you know why I’m standing on Fourth Uncle’s side? Because he has long linked hands with the Ouyang family, who probably have an intelligence network. Dad’s side is only arrogant but isn’t useful.”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare make a move on Qin Ran either.
Qin Xiuchen, Qin Hanqiu, and the others would have their own skin to save…
They would be in a predicament.

At 9 pm.
When Qin Ran returned from the laboratory, Cheng Mu and Cheng Jin were sitting at the dining table, waiting for her and Cheng Juan to dig in.
Sitting on her seat, Qin Ran scrolled through her phone while eating and saw a message from Lin Siran—
[Ran Ran, you’re on the hot search again!]
Qin Ran slowly sent a question mark. [?]
Lin Siran replied to her very quickly. [The video of your violin performance. It seems a fan just posted it, and it’s going viral. I didn’t expect your violin to be so impressive!! (Impressed)]
Lin Siran sent a screenshot of the hot search.
“Film Emperor Qin’s niece’s violin”
“Original song”
She sent a whole bunch of news.
Qin Ran didn’t say much after seeing these and only told her to study well.
She finished eating and returned to her room to prepare for the compet.i.tion.
Her heart was fixated on the experiment, so she naturally didn’t know that on Weibo, her hot search post had slowly risen from the top 10 to top 1.
Her violin performance at the Violin a.s.sociation had reached the seventh-grade standard and very easily attracted people’s resonance.
Because of “24-hours Idol,” she had attracted a lot of fans, so it was normal to reach 1st on the hot search.
“What the f*ck!! I already said her violin was sure to be good! I’m crying, she actually didn’t play the violin on 8-hours Idol!”
“Original! Song! It’s actually an original song! I learn music, but I’m also crying~~ o(>_
“Ahhhhhhh, I’m a violin profession. I want to say I know this video. Back then, it went viral for a few days in the violin world but then disappeared without a trace. I can finally see it resurface! I’m a fan of this little sister!”
“…”
It stayed on the hot search for a whole day.
In the next morning, a Weibo message appeared on “qr”‘s profile—
“Am I the only one who thinks her original song sounds a little familiar?”
