Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was the beginning of June, and it was around 5 pm. The light was rather strong in the afternoon.
Qin Ran couldn’t help but lower her cap and glance at Mu Nan.
“It’s okay, sister.” Mu Nan retracted his gaze. His expression was distant and cold as he stared at her. “Let’s go.”
There were many people here, and Cheng Mu’s car was parked on the next street. The two of them walked over directly.
After they left, the men in black looked at one another and said to the old man, “Butler… This…”
The old man looked at their back views and pondered for a moment. “Follow them and tell the Eldest Master the truth.”
Two men in black hurriedly followed them.
The old man went back into the car. Just as he got in the car, the men in black following Mu Nan came back.
After hearing their reason, the old man paused and raised his head. “You lost them?”
The men in black lowered their heads shamefully and also felt that it was strange.
This Young Master Mu Nan… Why was he so different from Miss Mu Ying…
…
At the same time.
Cheng Mu drove the car onto the main road. He looked at the rearview mirror. “Young Master Mu Nan, who were those people just now?”
“They aren’t important.” Mu Nan looked at the practice book on his phone.
Cheng Mu didn’t ask any other questions. He said to Qin Ran, “I’ll take you to the cafe first, then I will go to Uncle Lin’s house. Master Juan will pick you up later.”
“Ok.” Qin Ran leaned against the car window with a rather sad expression.
In two days, Mu Nan would take the college entrance examination. It wasn’t a problem for Mu Nan since he was already accepted by Beijing University a long time ago.
Mu Nan won the national and international gold medal in the physics compet.i.tion last year.
There was only one such honor every year.
The previous winner was Song Luting.
They all knew one another, and Song Luting didn’t have an apprentice yet. After listening to Song Luting’s story about Mu Nan, he immediately set his eyes on Qin Ran’s little cousin.
As for Qin Ran…
Scholar Liao didn’t have the guts or confidence to ask her to be his apprentice.
The dinner was also proposed by Scholar Liao and Qin Ran.
Last year, due to the major changes in several research inst.i.tutes, Beijing University and University A joined forces to attract more talents. This year’s national exam papers, especially physics, would be more difficult than last year’s.
Not many people in the industry knew about Mu Nan, but after this college entrance examination, Mu Nan was in the limelight, similar to what Qin Ran experienced.
Scholar Liao thought about it and decided to secure Mu Nan before the college entrance examination.
After a long time.
There were many people at the dinner gathering, including Brother Ye and Nan Huiyao, who had been busy with their experiments.
“In the future, we will be in the same laboratory.” Xing Kai greeted Mu Nan warmly. “Cousin, come and sit down.”
The seats were fixed in advance.
Qin Ran sat beside Song Luting. Someone had already poured her a cup of tea.
Qin Ran looked at the dishes on the table while holding her teacup.
The closest dish to her was boiled meat.
She glanced at it but didn’t move her chopsticks and only took two sips of tea.
Scholar Liao and the others were talking to Mu Nan.
Song Luting noticed her strangeness and put down his chopsticks. “Why aren’t you eating?”
“I’m not hungry.” Qin Ran held her cup with one hand and supported her chin with the other. She responded casually, and it seemed that she was in a bad mood.
Song Luting couldn’t help but raise his eyebrow.
But he didn’t say anything more.
Although the Beijing laboratory had developed an enzyme to target the Y3 virus and Qin Ran told him that she was fine, Qin Ran didn’t like reporting bad news. He was anxious.
The meal lasted for about half an hour.
Song Luting proposed to leave early.
He asked Xing Kai to send Mu Nan back in his car, and he accompanied Qin Ran at the door as she waited for Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan was at the medical laboratory. After dealing with follow-up questions, he arrived very quickly.
It was past 7 pm after they finished eating, and the sky was slowly turning dark. The street lamps lit up. Cheng Juan got out of the driver’s seat with elegant eyes.
Song Luting stood at the door with one hand in his pocket. After Qin Ran got into the car, he glanced at Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan closed the door of the pa.s.senger’s seat and walked towards him.
“Does Y3 have any sequelae?” Song Luting retracted his gaze from the car and frowned slightly. “She didn’t eat dinner.”
After some thought, he added, “Boiled meat.”
Hearing this, Cheng Juan paused for a moment. He looked up, making his sharp eyebrows look gentler under the hotel lights. He and Gu Xichi observed many patients recently.
There weren’t many sequelae. Qin Ran’s immune system was fine, and she took many experimental drugs before.
After hearing what Song Luting said, he nodded slightly. “I see. Thank you.”
…
They returned to the villa.
Qin Ran went straight upstairs to the study and started busying herself with data.
Cheng Juan walked into the kitchen and said a few words to the chef. The chef was stunned for a moment before turning around.
Cheng Juan went to the study. Qin Ran was sitting at his desk and rigorously a.n.a.lyzing today’s laboratory data.
He didn’t bother her and closed the door gently. When she was done, he reached out and hugged her from behind.
Qin Ran turned her head slightly after she finished calculating. “What’s the matter?”
“Sister Ran, shall we take leave tomorrow?” Cheng Juan didn’t let go and rested his chin on her shoulder. “For a re-examination.”
Y3 re-examination?
Qin Ran acknowledged him. “Do you have time? I can only take half-day leave as the laboratory has been busy recently.”
Both of their research inst.i.tutes were in a chaotic situation, so they were quite busy.
Plan B had almost ended and she was worried.
Cheng Juan smiled lightly. “Up to you.”
Qin Ran didn’t eat at 9 pm and was also too lazy to eat. When she went downstairs, she found that the chef had only cooked porridge and two side dishes, so she ate a bowl of it.
The cook was holding a book and standing beside her seriously.
He glanced at her from time to time.
Cheng Juan sat beside her only watching her eat.
After a long while, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Gu Xichi.
After some time.
Gu Xichi immediately called him.
“Brother, did you say that you will take Xiao Ran back to the laboratory?” On the other end, Gu Xichi was about to collapse.
Cheng Juan looked upstairs and lazily said, “No. Please work hard in the laboratory with our teacher. I won’t go often in the short term.”
He listed a few more precautions and then ended the call.
…
The next day.
Several doctors prepared the examination room early in the morning.
When Cheng Juan said that Qin Ran would have a re-examination, Director Cheng Weiping and the others became very serious like they were facing a major enemy.
Cheng Juan waited outside with Qin Ran, then the same results came out.
Cheng Weiping was on the front-lines, so he was the first to receive the results that the nurse gave him. Seeing the nurse’s strange expression, he asked, “What’s wrong? Is Miss Qin okay?”
Cheng Juan also looked at the nurse.
“Huh?” The nurse was a little nervous with the two big bosses stared at her, but she quickly composed herself. She handed a report to Cheng Weiping and said softly, “These two… may be in the wrong department.”
Cheng Weiping took the report immediately.
When he saw what was written on it, he paused for a moment.
There was no error in the inspection equipment.
“Third Young Master, take a look.” Cheng Weiping suppressed the surprise in his heart and pretended to be calm as he handed the report to Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan took the report and looked at it.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Ran walked over.
Cheng Juan stuffed the report into his pocket and reached out to pull her over. After some time, he said, “Sister Ran, let’s go to the other side first.”
This time, Cheng Weiping didn’t follow them.
When the two got on the elevator, he quickly took out his phone to call Cheng Wenru and exclaimed, “Eldest Lady, I have celebratory news!”
Cheng Wenru was currently finis.h.i.+ng a doc.u.ment and almost threw her phone aside after hearing Cheng Weiping’s loud voice.
She didn’t even get the chance to ask him what happened.
Cheng Weiping immediately said, “We’re about to have a new addition to the family!”
Bam! Cheng Wenru immediately hung up and rushed to the villa.
Cheng Weiping also hung up and smiled cheerfully.
Beside him, the nurse glanced at him. “Director, those two…”
The nurse only heard Cheng Weiping call the man Third Young Master and guessed their relations.h.i.+p.
“Third Young Master.” Cheng Weiping kept his phone, smiled, and sighed. “There’s going to be someone more powerful than Third Young Master in Beijing soon.”
…
The news spread like wildfire in the capital.
Too many things had happened this year. This news was the second happiest thing that happened to the Qin, Cheng, and Xu families after their marriage.
Not to mention Qin Xiuchen, who was filming, and the others.
Even the five confidants rushed back.
Cheng Huo and the rest stood at the entrance with his hands behind his back and said, “Their child will definitely inherit the computer skills of Madam. She’ll definitely be too impatient to teach the child, and I will teach him in the future.”
“Should I teach their child how to sell clothes?” Cheng Jin thought about it. “Master Juan will definitely not care much.”
“I can only teach him how to fight, then…” Cheng Mu said softly. He couldn’t possibly teach him how to be a gardener.
Cheng Shui was speechless.
With Gu Xichi, Tang Jun, Giant Crocodile, and Chang Ning around… would it ever be your turn?
Thinking of this, Cheng Shui couldn’t help but worry about Miss Qin’s child’s future.
A child who would grab the attention of big bosses before he was even born.
