Qin Ran walked towards the room slowly.
It was nearly November and the sun was still strong, but it wasnât hot.
The oversized school uniform outlined her extremely thin figure and exuded an inexplicable sense of coldness.
âWhy are you looking at me?â Qin Ran pushed the door open and came in. She raised her eyebrow when she saw Hao Dui and Cheng Mu staring at her.
âNothing.â Cheng Mu looked away and pretended to be casual.
It was quite strange.
Qin Ran ignored him, pushed open the glass door inside, and walked in.
âMs. Qin, donât you have class?â Cheng Mu thought about it, looked up at her, and asked softly.
âNo, I took leave,â Qin Ranâs hand was still on the door as she said emotionlessly.
Cheng Mu lowered his head and said, âOhâ, then he stopped looking at Qin Ran and pondered over something.
His movements were slow and distracted. He was so deep in thought that he didnât pour tea for Qin Ran.
Qin Ran didnât notice him.
The school doctorâs office was divided into two.
Lu Zhaoyingâs consultation office was outside.
Inside was a sofa and a desk. There was a chair in the corner and a soundproof glass door that separated the room from outside.
Qin Ran dragged a chair and sat down opposite Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan was looking at a picture of the human body structure and raised his eyes. âWhy did you come here at this time?â
He looked at his phone and it was 10:40 am.
âWell, something happened.â Qin Ran put her hand on the table and laid down on it.
Her eyebrows were drooping.
Her eyes were droopy and she looked sleepy.
âSo you came here to sleep?â Cheng Juan threw the figure of the human body onto his desk and leaned back. âAre you not attending class, little girl?â
âWhy does a little girl need to go to class?â Qin Ran slowly adjusted her posture and said in a lazy voice, âChildren are the same whether they attend class or not.â
Cheng Mu pushed the glass door open and heard Qin Ran.
His face was stiff and he thought to himself that Ms. Qin was rather self-aware to know that she would be the same regardless of whether she attended class.
Qin Ran was lying on the table with her eyes squinted sleepily.
Cheng Juan glanced at her, then turned to Cheng Mu and said in a low voice, âWhatâs the matter?â
Cheng Mu didnât speak and just glanced subconsciously at Qin Ran.
He had come regarding Qin Ran.
âGo out first, Iâll come out later.â Cheng Juan lowered his voice.
Cheng Mu responded and closed the door behind him.
Cheng Juan then turned sideways to look at Qin Ran, who was lying on the table. Her eyes were drooping lazily and she didnât seem as casual as before.
Something was wrong.
âDonât sleep here.â Cheng Juan walked to the sofa, picked up his little blanket, and handed it to Qin Ran. Then, he pointed to the sofa and said, âGo there.â
Qin Ran nodded and slowly got up to pick up the blanket in Cheng Juanâs hands.
The weather in November was slightly cool, and Qin Ranâs fingertips felt a little cold when it brushed Cheng Juanâs palm.
Cheng Juan frowned slightly.
Qin Ran had just talked about it casually, but she really fell asleep soon after pulling the small blanket over her body.
**
Cheng Juan gently opened the door and went out.
Even with the soundproof glass door, Cheng Juan still subconsciously lowered his voice and said with deep eyes, âCheck on the Feng family, I wonât be able to go for now.â
He said this lightly.
But the chill in his eyes made Cheng Mu and Hao Dui shiver.
Cheng Mu picked up the file on the side. âOkay.â
But Hao Dui looked up carefully and glanced at Cheng Juan, secretly horrified. So he had intended to go personally in the beginning?
Both of them went out.
âWhatâs wrong, why are you standing outside?â Lu Zhaoying came in from outside with a few bottles of water. He had yet to take off his white coat but had unbuttoned it.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qin Ran from across the glass door.
She was lying on the sofa, the black blanket covering her whole body tightly and leaving only a few strands of hair outside.
Cheng Mu grabbed the document and subconsciously lowered his voice. âMaster Juan, Iâll go out first.â
Cheng Juan nodded.
Once he and Hao Dui left, Lu Zhaoying hung up his white coat and sat down on his office chair. âMaster Juan, how⊠is the situation now?â
He lifted his chin to gesture inside.
It wasnât hot at noon, and Cheng Juan leaned against the table as he took out his cigarette and his lighter. He squinted before lighting his cigarette slowly. âWhat?â
âDonât pretend to be confused.â Lu Zhaoying smiled and lifted his chin towards the sofa inside. âQin Ran.â
âOh.â Cheng Juan bit his cigarette and squinted slightly. âSheâs still in high school.â
âDonât tell me you donât know that she retained for a year and is an adult already.â Lu Zhaoying chuckled sullenly. He laughed for a moment before correcting his expression. âBut the Cheng family might not like it.â
How could Lu Zhaoying not remember how repulsive Qin Ran had been to Cheng Mu when he first came.
Hearing this, Cheng Juan chuckled lowly, bit his cigarette, and said, âYouâre thinking too much.â

At the same time.
At the Lin Corporation.
Lin Qi had been worrying about the Feng family and his companyâs affairs had been stacked up. All kinds of documents were waiting for approval and were giving him a headache.
âChairman Lin, there is a phone call from the Feng Corporation.â The secretaryâs desk was on the side and she looked up from her desk. âItâs about the contract.â
Lin Qi was stunned and he looked up in surprise. âThe contract?â
Even without the situation with Qian Jinyu, it wasnât easy to cooperate with the Feng family.
Before Lin Qi had figured anything out, someone knocked on the officeâs door. âChairman Lin, Old Master Lin is here.â
âDad?â Lin Qi put down his pen and stood up. âWhy are you here?â
âI want to talk to you about Qin Ran.â Old Master Lin sat down on a chair, picked up the tea that the secretary had poured for him, and narrowed his eyes. âAre her computer skills good?â
âShe knows a little.â Lin Qi also sat down.
He had heard everything he knew from Ning Qing. As for restoring the surveillance footage, it might seem extremely fascinating to normal people, but in front of people who knew how to do it, it was actually very average.
Old Master Lin raised his head. âFeng Loulan wants her to enter Feng Corporation. I just donât think sheâs such a polite person.â
âChairman Feng wants her to enter the Feng Corporation?â Lin Qi was a little shocked and even paused. âThen, did she agree?â
Feng Loulanâs personal invitation held great importance.
In the long run, there were good developments and rare opportunities given, so most people wouldnât reject it.
âI donât know, Chairman Feng didnât mention it to her.â Old Master Lin was silent for a moment. âSo I want you to pay attention to this matter, but I donât think sheâll reject it.â
The two of them talked for a while before Old Master Lin stood up. âOh yes, give me a copy of her details.â
Lin Qi had obtained details of Qin Ranâs background when she had entered the Lin family.
While Old Master Lin waited for the documents in the lounge, he even asked Lin Qi for Ning Qingâs phone number and called her.
**
At this moment, Ning Qing was sitting on the sofa with a stunned expression.
âMom, what did Grandpa say?â Qin Yu poured a cup of tea and asked when she saw Ning Qingâs stunned expression.
Ning Qing was still holding the phone and only returned to her senses after a while. âHe asked me about Ran Ran.â
Old Master Lin hadnât mentioned it, but Ning Qing had caught the main point.
He was especially concerned about Qin Ranâs decision to join the Feng Corporation.
âAbout⊠Feng Corporation?â Qin Yu pursed her lips and spoke unintentionally.
âYes.â Ning Qing was absent-minded, but her heart was beating fast. âChairman Feng wanted to hire your sister, so grandpa told me to tell her about it.â
Qin Yu turned sideways and held the cup tightly in her hands. âThen, what did she say?â
âI donât know, Iâll ask her tomorrow at the hospital.â Ning Qing put away her phone.
She was smart and knew that Qin Ran wouldnât pick up even if she called her.
âOh.â Qin Yu pursed her lips distractedly.
But she felt very irritable. What if Qin Ran really agreedâŠ
**
Cheng Mu and Hao Dui had already set off.
âIs this the ward?â Hao Dui looked up and confirmed the information, then looked up and asked Cheng Mu.
Cheng Muâs face was stiff as he nodded sullenly.
âI already told you that Qin Ran would come to find Master Juan.â Hao Dui chuckled.
Cheng Mu didnât speak and just lowered his eyebrows. There was a suppressed atmosphere around him as he raised his hand to knock on the door.
Although he didnât say it, Cheng Mu was still disappointed with Qin Ran and was in low spirits.
âDonât be disappointed.â Hao Dui raised his hand and patted Cheng Muâs shoulder, comforting him. âNot everyone is like your goddess. Weâre just accustomed to your goddess. However, Qin Ran is still better than ordinary women, so donât expect too much from her.â
The two of them were talking.
The door of the ward opened.
A woman of about 40 years old with short hair came out on high heels with her eyebrow raised sharply. âYes?â
âMs. Feng, hello. Weâre here regarding your sonâs fight.â
Cheng Mu just opened his mouth when he saw the womanâs expression change. She said politely, âOh, so youâre Ms. Qinâs friend. We intend to bring that stupid boy over to apologize to Ms. Qin tomorrow. We just donât know if she has the timeâŠâ
Cheng Mu exchanged glances with Hao Dui and they both fell into an inexplicable silence.
