Qin Ran looked at Cheng Juan in surprise.

She didnt expect Cheng Juan to hand her the laptop right away.

Qian Dui was a serious and cold person. Even after Hao Dui said so many words to him, he didnt utter a reply.

Hao Dui learned of how cold the people in this team were in the past few days.

Qian Dui didnt even care about him despite his persistence in the past few days. He finally appeared today, perhaps because Master Juan was here.

Hao Dui was about to ask the technical personnel some questions. However, he saw Cheng Juan handing over the laptop to Qin Ran and frowned. Master Juan, why are you giving the laptop to her? Dont hold up the programmers work.

He then looked unhappily at Qin Ran.

As if asking, why wasnt she leaving yet?

Lu Zhaoying didnt react in time. He tilted his head and seemed to also be deep in thought about Cheng Juans intentions.

Qin Ran looked at the laptop in Cheng Juans hands and took it from him. Before she turned around, the technical personnel hurriedly stood up and made way for her.

Qin Ran sat down and started to concentrate on her work.

She pursed her lips as her slender fingers tapped away on the keyboard. Lines and lines of code that only programmers understood appeared on the screen.

Locate it, Qin Ran said nonchalantly.

The atmosphere around her changed once she started concentrating.

The technical staff who was very cold to Hao Dui heard her and took out a cell phone from his pocket. He flipped it open and clicked on a switch on the left side. It then immediately turned into a mini-computer.

Locating. The technical staff sat by her side and opened up the map.

Following Qin Rans instruction, he found an address in the north part of the city.

Everyone saw how the technical personnel went through a ton of code and information during his testing.

And still ended up with nothing.

Not even 10 minutes had passed?

And she got the location?

What the heck? Who was she?!

Hao Duis jaw dropped. He went from puzzled to surprised to numb. He thought he was hallucinating.

Qian Dui brought a cup of tea and placed it beside Qin Rans right hand. This is green tea. I only used seven tea leaves, its not too strong.

He then turned towards Hao Dui. Ive sent people to the abandoned factory in the North.

Hao Dui was completely speechless now.

Lu Zhaoying recovered from the initial surprise. However, he couldnt stop himself from looking at Qin Ran again and again.

Master Juan, you knew this all along? Lu Zhaoying finally found his voice again.

Clenching his fist and placing it by his lips, Cheng Juan coughed lightly. I had prior suspicion but only came to a conclusion now.

Cheng Juan felt there was something wrong when traces of Qin Ran were found in 712. He then found out more from the morse codes.

He confirmed his suspicions when Qian Dui suddenly appeared.

Qian Dui shouldnt have heard of me before. From what you guys have told me, he didnt appear even after Hao Dui visited him so many times. That meant that he didnt want to be involved.

Lu Zhaoying was puzzled. But thats just a guess?

After Qian Dui came, his eyes kept shifting to her. This was his subconscious at play. From his microexpressions, he holds her in high regard.

712? Lu Zhaoying was more puzzled. That was three years ago, how old was she?

Cheng Juan didnt reply.

Heck You guys are all crazy good at this

After a long while, Lu Zhaoying finally snapped back to his senses. He wiped his face and said emotionlessly.

Both the technical personnel and Qian Dui, who were very cold to Hao Dui, centered around Qin Ran.

Lu Zhaoying didnt want to interrupt but didnt dare to talk to Cheng Juan as well. He could only pat Hao Dui on the shoulder. Actually, Qian Dui isnt so cold. Look at how enthusiastic he is to Qin Ran. Bringing tea and water, treating her like his dad!

Hao Dui was speechless.

Say something! Lu Zhaoying shook his shoulders.

He was choking in the silence. He would explode if no one talked to him.

Hao Dui still remained silent.

What the heck was there to say?!

**

Cheng Mus address was out. Hao Dui looked at Qin Ran deeply and proceeded with Lu Zhaoying to save Cheng Mu.

Qin Ran was surrounded by the people in the station.

Cheng Juan stood at one side and saw how the technical personnel was looking at Qin Ran with admiration. The crowd around her was asking all sorts of questions, trapping her in.

Lu Zhaoying and Hao Dui had left.

Cheng Juan tapped on his phone with his fingers and squinted at them.

Those surrounding Qin Ran heard a soft voice, Dont you have exam papers to finish?

Qin Ran felt a slight headache from the noise surrounding her.

She couldnt think clearly.

Cheng Juans soft voice felt gentle to her ears.

She identified it easily.

Qin Rans mind seemed to have found an answer as she rushed out from the crowd around her.

She then said towards the crowd behind her, Thats right, I still have exam papers to finish. The teacher is waiting to check it.

Qin Ran heaved a sigh of relief and said softly, Lets go back.

Cheng Juan looked down at her. Seeing her relaxed expression, he chuckled lightly.

Alright, lets go back.

Acting as if nothing had happened, he turned around and exited the doors nonchalantly. However, he intentionally slowed down.

**

By the time Cheng Mu was rescued by Hao Dui and the others, it was already two hours later at 5 pm.

As Hao Dui and Lu Zhaoying had to proceed for handover, Cheng Mu didnt return with Lu Zhaoying. Instead, he took Qian Duis car back to the school doctors office.

After arriving at the school doctors office, he saw Hao Dui and Lu Zhaoying coming after recording the data.

I thought I wouldnt see yall for a couple more days, Cheng Mu said emotionally after seeing them. How did Qian Dui agree to help? And how did yall find me? I asked Qian Dui, but he didnt reply at all. Hes such a cold person

Cheng Mu wanted to continue.

But then, from the corner of his eyes, he saw Qin Ran getting a cup of water from the kitchen. He stopped and didnt continue in front of her.

Qin Ran took a sip of water and glared at him. She wasnt bothered as she sat back on her chair and continued doing her practice papers casually, with one hand supporting her chin.

Cheng Mu glared at her and frowned. Looking at Hao Dui and Lu Zhaoying, he said softly, Lets talk outside

Before he could finish, Hao Dui cut him off emotionlessly. Theres no need for that.

What?

We dont have to talk outside or avoid her, Hao Dui said while staring at Qin Ran. She saved your life.
