    From Butler Cheng’s perspective, Qin Ran was still a high school student.


    Qian Dui and Cheng Mu were now dealing with big cases, so it seemed a little too much for a high school student to participate in it.


    Lu Zhaoying raised an eyebrow and chuckled. “That’s not the case. Qin Ran is very impressive, you don’t have to worry.”


    He had asked Qian Dui several times, but he still didn’t reveal Qin Ran’s identity and had only said a few words.


    He went downstairs.


    Butler Cheng followed Lu Zhaoying in concern.


    He was still unconvinced and felt like Lu Zhaoying was too indulgent to Qin Ran.


    She was just a high school student, how impressive could she be?


    “It’s almost done.” Qin Ran pressed the enter button and tilted her head slightly while talking to Qian Dui. “I’ll talk to the technician in your teamter...”


    Butler Cheng followed behind Lu Zhaoying and heard Qin Ran’s voice, as well as a few technical words.


    Qian Dui and Cheng Mu listened very carefully.


    Cheng Mu saw that Qin Ran had put down theputer, so he stepped aside and brewed her another cup of tea.


    He then put it in front of her in a very respectful and polite attitude.


    Qin Ran typed on the keyboard with one hand and then took a sip of tea with the other. She thought for a moment, tilted her head, and said in a soft voice, “Cheng Mu, go to the guest room upstairs and bring me the cell phone on the table.”


    Cheng Mu nodded and didn’t hesitate at all. “Okay.”


    Then, he turned and asked Butler Cheng where the guest room was before heading upstairs, respectful and courteous.


    Butler Cheng was still a little surprised.


    He also knew Cheng Mu. He was apetent man whom Cheng Juan brought around with him. He had been with Cheng Juan since young and basically only listened to him.


    The other members of the Cheng family couldn’t even order the people around Cheng Juan, not even Old Master Cheng.


    But Cheng Mu listened to Miss Qin’s orders?


    Once Qian Dui had left with Hao Dui, Butler Cheng suddenly realized that they hade not for Lu Zhaoying, but for Qin Ran specifically?


    Butler Cheng had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he couldn’t figure anything out. He kept it inside, but his impatience was wing at his heart like a cat’s paw.

    Cheng Mu didn’t go out with Qian Dui after finishing his work.


    Lu Zhaoying picked up theputer and yed a game. He thought of Yang Fei andined to Cheng Mu about how Qin Ran didn’t even know Yang Fei.


    “Qin Ran, join the game. I’ll carry you.” Lu Zhaoying logged onto his ount.


    Qin Ran leaned on the sofa, looked at his phone, and didn’t raise her head. “I don’t have a Guru ount.”


    Cheng Juan just came downstairs. The air conditioning was turned on in the hall and it wasn’t very cold, so he had taken off his windbreaker and was wearing a ck shirt.


    The cuffs were rolled up to reveal his thin wrist.


    “I remembered.” Lu Zhaoying nced at Cheng Juan and touched his chin. “That guy does.”


    He pointed to Cheng Juan and smiled.


    Then, he lowered his head and said to Qin Ran, “That ount used to be Master Cheng’s wife. It has a bunch of the best cards and even the rare internal cards. Even if he doesn’t y now, nobody can borrow his ount. But if you want to, he’ll definitely lend you.”


    Qin Ran felt strange and slightly tilted her head. “Cheng Juan ys games too?”


    He didn’t look like it.


    “Of course. Kyushu Tour was even more popr three years ago. He was the one who spent the most time on the game, and Team OST even invited him before. If it weren’t for—” Lu Zhaoying paused at this. “Master Juan, what’s your ount?”


    Cheng Juan was sitting on the sofa opposite. He picked up a cup of tea and looked at Qin Ran with dark eyes. “You want to y?”


    “Yeah.” Qin Ran originally didn’t want to y, but she was now curious because of what Lu Zhaoying said. “How high is your rank?”


    In Kyushu Tour, there was a hidden point. If Cheng Juan had reached the Guru ss or a ss above that, he could still y a match with Lu Zhaoying even if he dropped.


    “Supreme? I forgot. You can take a look.” Cheng Juan yawned and didn’t seem to be in high spirits.


    He slowly reported a string of English letters and a password.


    Butler Cheng took out a piece of paper to help Qin Ran remember and went over to give it to her.


    But he found that Qin Ran’s memory was very good and she had memorized it already.


    She clicked enter—


    Qin Ran saw that the words spelled out in English formed a few words—


    lonely—hawk001.


    Qin Ran’s absent-minded hands paused.


    She didn’t y much this time and just used her left hand slowly to control the card and follow behind Lu Zhaoying.


    Every time Lu Zhaoying was about to die, Qin Ran revived him with a bloody move or a life-saving move.


    “Qin Ran, your ability is quite good, and your response is quick too.” If it had been done only once or twice, he would have attributed it to luck. But after several times, Lu Zhaoying found that something wasn’t right and turned to stare at Qin Ran, his voice regrettable. “But your hand speed is low. It would be nice if you could reach half of Meng Xinran’s hand speed.”


    Qin Ran nced at him and said nothing.

    Monday.


    The long-awaited new student had finally arrived.


    Qiao Sheng and the others looked through the window and saw Meng Xinran following Gao Yang. She wasn’t wearing a school uniform and looked beautiful, unique, and slightly arrogant.


    Her pride was different from Xu Yaoguang’s innate pride.


    It was also different from Qin Ran’s unwillingness to participate in the world.


    It was aggressive and domineering.


    It made people slightly ufortable.


    “Meng Xinran, you can sit with Xia Fei.” Gao Yang then asked Xia Fei to move her table back.


    Xia Fei was honest and had good rtionships with people.


    Director Ding had told him that Meng Xinran was from a big background, so Gao Yang was still worried.


    Qiao Sheng, Xu Yaoguang, and Qin Ran were already enough, but now that there was another Meng Xinran, ss 3.9 was even moreplicated.


    Xia Fei only felt like Meng Xinran’s clothes were too exquisite. She was careful not to touch her and greeted Meng Xinran.


    Meng Xinran nodded and didn’t speak.


    After ss, the students from the other sses came over to see the new student.


    There were many such people by ss 3.9’s door.


    “I heard that it’s Meng Xinran? The one in Team OST?”


    “Yeah, it’s really her. I recognized her face from the matchst time!”


    But it wasn’t easy to get close to Meng Xinran.


    She was arrogant and cold.


    Qiao Sheng sat at the back and touched his chin with his hand. He stared at Meng Xinran and felt a strange illusion.


    He kept feeling like Meng Xinran was particrly simr to Qin Ran in one aspect.


    They were both especially hard to get close to.


    However, Qin Ran and Meng Xinran’s difference was like the difference between something genuine and pirated.


    Qin Ran’s “don’t bother me” aura waspletely different from Meng Xinran’s “don’t get close to me” aura.


    He had been looking forward to her arrival the most, but now that she was here, he didn’t want to get close to her.


    Thinking of this, Qiao Sheng nced at Qin Ran. She was lying on the table with a coat over her head. Her isted figure also looked very difficult to mess with.

    “ssmate Meng, how’s Sun God like in real life?” The boy in front turned around and asked Meng Xinran excitedly. “Is Yunguang Consortium very good, have you been to the big building?”


    Meng Xinran lowered her head and flipped through a book. “It’s so so.”


    “Then do you have tickets for Sun God’s game?” The boy scratched his head.


    Meng Xinran didn’t refuse directly and just smiled lightly. “I’ll ask Yang Fei at night if there any tickets left.”


    “Oh my God, she can contact Sun God directly! I’m so jealous!”


    The boys in the ss eximed and the girls also made a big fuss.


    Meng Xinran wasn’t surprised at this situation.


    The ssmates hade to greet her as she expected.


    A ssmate who was almost a celebrity hade, so there was sure to be an uproar in school.


    But there were three people in the ss who were quite different.


    Meng Xinran had noticed them.


    One of them was a girl whom she had never seen before. She had her head hidden behind a book and had covered her head with her school uniform. The teacher didn’t bother her even when she slept in ss.


    Meng Xinran frowned and thought that her grades were probably so bad that the teacher had given up on her.


    The other two people were Qiao Sheng and Xu Yaoguang.


    She didn’t notice Qiao Sheng, but Xu Yaoguang... Meng Xinran felt like this name was a little familiar.


    After school at night.


    Meng Xinran kept her books and left.


    A boy stopped at the door of the ssroom, holding a pen and a piece of paper in his hand. He was prancing about and blushing.


    Meng Xinran smiled subconsciously and asked, “You want my signature? Do you want me to write some blessings?”


    The boy was stunned for a moment, then he blushed even redder, looked across from her, and stuttered, “No, no, I’m looking for Senior Qin Ran.”


    Meng Xinran was about to pick up the pen, but she paused quickly.


    She almost spurted. “You don’t know me?”


    But she held back.


    “Sister Ran, school has ended. A junior fan is here to ask for your signature.” Qiao Sheng walked over to Qin Ran’s table and kicked her chair.


    But his movement wasn’t rude.


    Qin Ran slowly got up from her table and took a sip of water from the thermos. She cleared her throat, then went over to sign the boy’s name very perfunctorily.


    Very, very perfunctorily.


    Meng Xinran didn’t see Qin Ran’s face and only saw her back. But with her attitude... she had fans too?


    The boy showed his thanks gratefully. “Thank you, Senior Qin!”


    He held the piece of paper like it was a baby.


    Meng Xinran frowned. Who was this girl?


    **


    The next day, Qiao Sheng and Xu Yaoguang came into ss.


    But by the time they reached, ss 3.9 was in chaos.


    “What’s the matter, why is it so noisy?” Qiao Sheng sat on a stool and saw Qin Ran lying on the table. She seemed quite annoyed, so he raised his voice.


    The noise in the ss instantly halved.


    It was obvious that his prestige in ss 3.9 was particrly high.


    “Qiao Sheng,” He Wen lowered his voice and said, full of excitement and agitation, “Meng Xinran has three tickets with her!”


    Qiao Sheng paused and stood upright. “Three?”


    “I saw it with my own eyes.”


    It wasn’t surprising that she had three tickets since she was an insider.


    Qiao Sheng didn’t doubt it and went to his seat absentmindedly.


    If there had been no tickets left, he would have given up and asked his father to pretend to be a staff member so he could go inside.


    But since there were still tickets left, Qiao Sheng couldn’t suppress it.


    He thought about it, pulled out a nk piece of paper, and wrote a line on it to Meng Xinran.


    But Meng Xinran didn’t write back.


    He Wen found an opportunity to speak to Qiao Sheng. “Meng Xinran is very cold and doesn’t look at the notes. There are too many people writing notes to her every day.”


    Other than Qin Ran, Qiao Sheng had never seen any girl behave like this to him.


    He leaned back in his chair and chuckled. “Fine.”


    At noon during lunch, Qiao Sheng pulled Xu Yaoguang along and went to find Meng Xinran. He smiled and asked, “Student Meng, do you know where the cafeteria is? Shall I bring you there?”


    Meng Xinran nced at him but didn’t refuse. She even thanked him lightly.


    **


    For three days in a row, Qiao Sheng called Meng Xinran along for lunch.


    “Don’t you have another friend too? Why don’t you ask her?” Meng Xinran nced at Xu Yaoguang and asked.


    Qiao Sheng waved his hand. “You don’t have to bother about her, she won’te with us.”


    Meng Xinran nodded thoughtfully and didn’t speak.


    After the midterm exam, Qin Ran didn’t go to the cafeteria to eat and Qiao Sheng knew that she went to the school doctor’s office.


    The school’s medical office.


    Qin Ran slowly walked inside with her phone.


    Lu Zhaoying was sitting outside and he frowned. “Qin Ran, are you okay?”


    It seemed like Qin Ran had been like this ever since she left the vi, low in spirits.


    Qin Ran wasn’t bothered. She just leaned back on the chair and took out her phone easily. “I’m okay.”


    “Are you going to OST’s game the day after tomorrow?” Lu Zhaoying spun a pen in his hands and smiled.


    Qin Ran murmured, “I’m still thinking about it.”


    “What?” Lu Zhaoying didn’t understand.


    “Nothing.” Qin Ran opened a game and casually said, “Have you found the ticket for the meeting?”


    Qin Ran remembered this matter.


    Lu Zhaoying sighed. “Do you think it’s so easy to get the Yunguang Consortium’s ticket? Oh, you’ve probably never heard of the Yunguang Consortium.”


    Qin Ran nced at him.


    Cheng Juan called her from inside.


    Qin Ran handed her phone to Lu Zhaoying. “Help me y one round.”


    Lu Zhaoying quickly took her phone and took over the game.


    It was the mobile version of Kyushu Tour.


    After ying, Lu Zhaoying nced at the game page and realized that Qin Ran’s ount was of one district?


    It was an insider ount like Master Juan’s?


    Lu Zhaoying was a little surprised. He was still thinking about it when Qin Ran’s phone suddenly rang.


    It was a WeChat video call.


    “Qin Ran, you have a video call!” Lu Zhaoying yelled. He looked down and saw the one word on the screen—


    Yang.
