After a game, Qin Ran looked up and saw the small glass bottle on the big screen.

She froze.

The auctioneers voice echoed through the microphone throughout the auction house.

8 million, once! Ok, room 11, 8.5 million!

Room 6, 9 million!

13.5 million!

In less than a minute, it soared to ten million.

A luxury sports car

Was this thing so expensive?

Qin Rans lazy posture disappeared and she put her hand on her forehead, pondering to herself:Whats going on? Why are there so many bids?

27 million

As she was still musing, beside her, Cheng Wenru hesitated for a moment and was about to press the red button.

Qin Ran quickly stopped her.

27 million, thrice!

The moment Qin Ran stopped her, the auction was successful.

Before Cheng Wenru had time to ask her, there was a knock on the door. Secretary Li opened the door before he could react to the situation.

Outside was a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat rigid.

She bent down slightly. Chairman Cheng, our lady knows who the buyer of the Daylily is. If necessary, you can go to room 7.

Then, she turned and left.

Cheng Wenru narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to look at Secretary Li. Room 7?

Secretary Li shook his head and took out his phone. Ill ask Cheng Jin.

In the beginning, Cheng Jin and Cheng Mu had accompanied Cheng Wenru, but they had been replaced by Secretary Li later on. Secretary Li mainly focused on Cheng Wenrus company and wasnt knowledgeable about other matters.

After a while, he received Cheng Jins answer.

He glanced at Cheng Wenru and coughed. Its Miss Ouyang. When he said this, he glanced at Qin Ran out of the corner of his eye.

2

Ouyang Wei? Cheng Wenru repeated thoughtfully. But she didnt have time to think too much, so she turned to Qin Ran and asked, Ran Ran, why didnt you let me continue to bid?

Qin Ran leaned on the chair with her phone expressionlessly. She tapped the phone lazily with her fingers and tilted her head when she heard this question. Its too expensive. Some people were obviously raising the price with you.

1

I know, but I really need that bottle. Cheng Wenru was naturally aware. But its alright, I can just go to Ouyang

Qin Ran stood up with her arms crossed and said indifferently, I have that thing.

**

Twenty minutes later in Ting Lan.

Cheng Wenru came back with Qin Ran and the others.

Miss Qin. Cheng Mu was playing a game with Lu Zhaoying when he saw them. He stood up quickly. Why are you back so early?

The auction was supposed to last until at least midnight, but it wasnt even ten now.

Something happened. Qin Ran squinted slightly.

Cheng Wenru followed Qin Ran upstairs with an incomprehensible expression.

Qin Rans room was next to Cheng Juans. It was decorated in a very homely bucolic style. It was already evening, so Cheng Mu had placed the potted plant from yesterday on the table in her room.

The room was vacant but not spacious, but Cheng Wenru didnt have time to pay attention to her room now. Her eyes followed Qin Ran closely.

Qin Ran opened the drawer of the dressing table.

She looked down and rummaged around before asking Cheng Wenru, How many do you want?

Cheng Wenru was taken aback. How many did she want?

1

She walked two steps forward and looked down, somewhat confused

She realized that Qin Rans drawer was full of bottles of the Daylily!

Qin Ran didnt know how many Cheng Wenru wanted. Seeing that she was silent, she simply took two new bottles and handed them to her.

Lin Siran had given her two bottles when she returned to China. Later, Lin Siran had asked for a few more bottles from Father Lin when she injured her hand. After that, Lin Siran had given her one bottle as a present, and during the meal a few days ago, Father Lin had given her several more bottles

3

All in all, she had more than a dozen of them.

In the past, even at auctions, Cheng Wenru had never seen more than a dozen bottles of the Daylily put together.

She was bewildered.

But she was good at self-regulation and reacted quickly, speedily putting the bottles in her bag.

In the car downstairs.

Secretary Li glanced at the bottles of Daylilies that Cheng Wenru took out and carefully observed them. He frowned. Theres no serial code

Taking it back, Cheng Wenru didnt answer his question and just told him to drive to the research institute.

The results of the two leaves she had placed there three days ago should be out.

At 10:30 in the evening, the people of the research institute had yet to leave. The research institute required a card or an internal staffs accompaniment to enter, so Cheng Wenru stood by the gate and made a call.

Not long after, a person wearing a white research uniform came out and handed her a piece of paper. This is the result of the report. The two leaves are of the same plant. The only difference is that No.1s leaves are better than No.2s leaves.

2

No.1s leaf was from Qin Rans potted plant. It was as she had expected.

1

Taking a deep breath, Cheng Wenru took the report. Thank you.

It was too late, so she didnt return to the courtyard. She planned to go back tomorrow after getting off work.

In fact

She also needed to digest this information.

She returned to the car.

She couldnt help but send a message to Cheng Juan

[What does that kid do?]

1

Of course, she wouldnt think that Cheng Juan had given these to Qin Ran.

The next day at the Violin Association.

Qin Yu took her card and entered the teaching building.

She had met many relatives because of the college entrance examinations and only arrived in Beijing yesterday afternoon.

Concerned about the Violin Associations examination and the name list for August this year, she had rushed back early in the morning.

After nearly ten months, most of the people in the Violin Association knew her. She might not be pervertedly talented, but her perseverance was truly amazing.

She had reached the fifth grade at the end of last year.

Even the teachers of the Violin Association had no doubts about her passing the sixth grade in August this year.

Look, thats Qin Yu A few people whispered from time to time at the sight of her.

Standing at the elevators entrance, Qin Yu swiped her card and entered. Listening to their comments, her expression was largely unchanged.

After going to Continent M, she knew very well that the Beijing Violin Association was not her final stage. She was intent on joining the upper-class society in Beijing, to obtain the opportunity of studying at the Continent Ms academy this year.

The elevator door closed and the voices discussing her not far away became louder.

I have news of Youth No. 1 Qin Yu, shell be in the sixth grade next month

Qin Ran, Tian Xiaoxiao, and Wang Zifeng entered the elevator together.

The three had just arrived downstairs.

Qin Yu? Qin Ran narrowed her eyes when she heard the name.

Among them, Wang Zifeng understood the Violin Association the best. He thought Qin Ran was asking who Qin Yu was and explained, Shes Teacher Dais apprentice and is a very powerful person. Everyone in the Violin Association knows that shes very ferocious. I think her violin must have reached the sixth grade already. Her surname is also Qin, the same family name as yours.

Sixth grade so soon? Tian Xiaoxiao couldnt help but smack her lips. Her violin was already pretty good. But, put in the Violin Association, she was really a slag. But Ran Ran, why hasnt any teacher accepted you as a disciple yet? I think Dai Ran would definitely want you.

Yeah. Wang Zifeng also glanced at her. Teacher Dai hasnt contacted you yet? Impossible.

1

Dai Ran recruited apprentices widely, bent on suppressing Master Wei in this matter to obtain authority in the association.

The elevator door opened and Qin Ran went in. Hearing that, she glanced at them silently.

**

On the second floor, Qin Yu went directly to the first practice room on the fourth level on the left. Two people were already in the practice room, both of whom had been assigned to Qin Yus group.

They greeted her when she entered.

Qin Yu, is Teacher Dai accepting a new disciple?

News of a student in the fifth grade had already spread in the association. The new students discussed Qin Yu, while the old students feared Qin Ran.

These veteran students were no newcomers and had an understanding of the associations classification system. They knew how terrifying it was to reach the fifth grade without receiving training from the association

Many people came to the third grade and studied for three years without reaching the fifth grade.

Accept disciples? Qin Yu took out a notebook from the bookshelf. Tian Yiyun? Shes in the fourth grade, right? Hell probably accept her.

No, not her. A boy beside shook his head. Its that new student in the fifth grade

A fifth-grade student? Qin Yu was stunned. A freshman in the fifth grade? Hows that possible? Whose apprentice is she?

She was also aware of the system for the fifth graders. Other than an apprentice of a teacher in the association, it was impossible to reach the fifth grade by oneself

She took the notebook and walked over to the computer.

She opened the students information directly.
