Qin Ran didn’t speak much and wasn’t bothered by everyone’s attention on her. She went straight to the second floor with her card.

Tian Xiaoxiao had originally just found Qin Ran pleasing to the eye.

She had always been unlucky. Otherwise, after entering the entertainment industry for so many years, why would she still be an unpopular celebrity?

But now…

Tian Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but reach out for her mobile phone and silently sent a text message to her manager—

[I seemed to have ridden on one’s coattails.]

The manager quickly replied—

[Please wake up, you non-monsieur. (smile)]

Tian Xiaoxiao: […]

She followed Qin Ran, and after a pause, she found that w.a.n.g Zifeng was standing next to her.

They exchanged glances calmly, and then followed Qin Ran very tacitly.

Everyone knew that given Qin Ran’s age and grade, several teachers in the a.s.sociation would be vying to obtain her as a disciple. At that time, the teachers would definitely give her preferential treatment…

Both of them could reach the pinnacle of life.

Qin Ran went directly into the elevator, swiped her card, and then pressed the second floor.

The second-floor layout was no different from the first floor.

Room 201 was where teachers usually publicly taught on the second floor. The rest were training rooms.

On the left was the training room for the fourth-grade students, and on the right was for the fifth-grade students. Qin Ran walked directly to the right.

The training room also had a credit card system. A light on the door meant that someone was using it, while a lack of light meant that n.o.body was inside.

Qin Ran found an empty room and swiped her card.

The training room was extremely s.p.a.cious, and there were four computers, all of which taught Continent M’s contents. On top of two rows of bookshelves were rows of senior’s notes, as well as international violin essentials translated by the a.s.sociation.

These were the most important resources of the a.s.sociation and couldn’t be copied or taken out.

The openness of the resources on each floor wasn’t determined.

In the practice room on the first floor that Teacher Xu had introduced, there was no bookshelf, nor any seniors’ notes on their experience in the a.s.sociation.

There were certainly not as many books open on the fourth floor as there were on the fifth floor.

w.a.n.g Zifeng walked to the bookshelf excitedly and picked up a translated international violin essential. He sat down on the ground and began to flip through it.

Qin Ran took out a list of books from her pocket.

The books had been recommended by Master Wei, and she could find them on the shelf.

After finding the books she wanted, she walked to an empty desk, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

When Tian Xiaoxiao and w.a.n.g Zifeng glanced over, she was reading a book while wearing black headphones. They reached a tacit understanding not to disturb her.

w.a.n.g Zifeng stayed on the ground and flipped through the book eagerly, while Tian Xiaoxiao took the violin to the window to practice the repertoire.

**

On the first day, Qin Ran and the three people didn’t leave the training room except for lunch. w.a.n.g Zifeng kept reading the cla.s.sic violin books that weren’t available outside.

After flipping through the book, Qin Ran jotted down something in her notebook, and then took her violin to try playing it.

Tian Xiaoxiao was still playing the violin at first, and after listening to Qin Ran play for the first time, she silently put down her violin.

On the first day, the three of them weren’t familiar. They were especially not close to Qin Ran and basically didn’t talk much to her.

The next day, Tian Xiaoxiao and w.a.n.g Zifeng were a little closer, but they still couldn’t see through Qin Ran, the big boss. However, they succeeded in adding her WeChat account.

On the third day, the two asked Qin Ran a few questions and found that she was pretty approachable and amiable.

It was 5:30 in the evening.

The three of them went out on time.

“You two only finished the college entrance examination this year?” There was an age requirement of 15-22 to become a student of the a.s.sociation. w.a.n.g Zifeng was very excited when he heard that Qin Ran and Tian Xiaoxiao had also just taken the college entrance examination. “You two also took the national exam?”

At present, the papers in all provinces and cities were almost uniform.

At the mention of the college entrance examination, the quiet w.a.n.g Zifeng became more talkative. “Are you from the liberal arts or sciences stream? This year’s science papers are absolutely perverted. The top two in the national college entrance examination this year is even more perverted.”

Tian Xiaoxiao took out her phone to contact her manager and replied disinterestedly, “I’m from the arts stream.”

Looking in front, Qin Ran put her hands in her pocket and said concisely, “Science.”

w.a.n.g Zifeng walked beside Qin Ran and talked to her about the science papers.

Cheng Juan came to pick her up on time.

He parked the car on the other side of the road so as not to disturb Qin Ran. He rarely got out of the car and waited for her in the driver’s seat.

Because his license plate number was a little imperious.

Today, he sat on the driver’s seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and his mobile phone in the other. He was on the phone with Cheng Wenru. “I see, I’ll go back later.”

After a moment, he raised an eyebrow. “No, I’m not bringing her back. The Cheng family’s house is too crowded.”

While talking, he glanced outside the window and saw Qin Ran’s group of three at first glance.

w.a.n.g Zifeng leaned close to Qin Ran and happily said something to her. At first glance, they looked to be of the same age and even seemed quite loquacious.

Qin Ran put one hand behind her head, still in the state of a social bad girl. Although the boy next to her was very noisy, she didn’t seem impatient.

“I’m hanging up.” Cheng Juan narrowed his eyes and hung up the phone.

His tone was quite indifferent.

On the other end of the phone, Cheng Wenru couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows when the phone was cut off.

Cheng Juan opened the door, got out of the car, and walked two steps forward.

After five o’clock, the sun hadn’t set yet, and the sunlight extended his figure and made it look especially tall and slender. With his back facing the light, his facial features were a lot clear when he approached.

Although Tian Xiaoxiao and w.a.n.g Zifeng were already accustomed to Qin Ran’s outstanding beauty in the past two days, they were still awed by the looks and temperament of the man in front of them.

“You’re a few minutes late today.” Cheng Juan reached out and pulled her hand very naturally. Holding her hand in his palm, he turned to look at w.a.n.g Zifeng and Tian Xiaoxiao and asked politely, “Where are you two going? Do you need me to send you off?”

Tian Xiaoxiao had been in the entertainment industry since young and was very quick-witted. She took off her sungla.s.ses and smiled. “No, we have people picking us up.”

Both parties bid farewell politely.

Tian Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief after the black car drove away.

w.a.n.g Zifeng was a little distracted and seemed to remember something. “Oh, this year’s first place for the national science paper is also called Qin Ran! They have the same name! What a coincidence!”

Although the reputation of the top scorer of the national examinations this year was resounding, no media dared to release her photos, and not one interview had been accepted.

Only a few interviews about her family had been accepted, but they were only narratives and the media didn’t dare to publish any photos.

No further information could be found on the Internet about her, except that she was a girl from Yun Cheng.

This year’s college entrance examination top scorer was too perverted. Everyone wanted to dig for her, but later, news came out that this college entrance examination top scorer was a big boss whose personal information couldn’t be leaked.

Netizens only then realized that she seemed to be a real big boss, so they stopped trying to dig her up.

But an extra group of people now wors.h.i.+ped Big Boss Qin during their final exam.

“It’s probably the same name.” Tian Xiaoxiao wasn’t bothered, since she was an art student like most of the violin students.

The manager’s car also drove over. Tian Xiaoxiao waved to w.a.n.g Zifeng and got into the car.

w.a.n.g Zifeng stood there thinking for a while and muttered, “What a coincidence.”

The name was identical.

Inside Cheng Juan’s car.

“I’ll go back to the old villa to eat at night.” He sat in the driver’s seat and waited for Qin Ran to fasten her seatbelt before starting the car. “I’ll send you back first.”

“Ok.” Qin Ran rested her chin in her hand and chatted with Lin Siran distractedly.

Lin Siran had also applied for Beijing University. Her score was enough to enter Beijing University, and she was prepared to come to Beijing with her family tomorrow. She wanted to find Qin Ran and also attend her apprentices.h.i.+p banquet.

Cheng Juan drove the car back to Ting Lan and then to the Cheng family’s house in Beijing.

There was a traffic jam at this time.

After more than an hour, he finally reached the Cheng family’s house at nearly eight o’clock.

Inside the house.

Cheng Wenru was talking to Secretary Li. She stood in front of the corridor with her arms around her chest and her eyes knitted together as she stared at the rock garden. “Are you sure?”

“There’s only one bottle of Daylily in the auction house.” Secretary Li frowned. “I haven’t received any news about the seller. But… I think the Young Master has found Ouyang Wei.”

“Let him find her.” Cheng Wenru waved her hand dismissively. “It’s fine as long as I can find the Daylily and solve my Dad’s affairs.”

Secretary Li nodded.

While they were talking, a slender figure walked over from the rock garden unhurriedly. Along the way, many people addressed him as “Third Young Master”.

It was Cheng Juan.

Cheng Wenru stopped talking and lifted her chin. “If you don’t come back again, Eldest Brother will nag Dad about it for another year.”

Cheng Juan was unbothered and looked a little lazy. “Let him nag.”

“So, that little girl doesn’t have the intention to meet me?” Cheng Wenru followed him to the main villa and said in an amused voice, “I’ve already prepared her present.”

Although she was in her thirties, she was well-maintained, and almost no fine lines could be seen around her eyes.

“She has been in a good mood lately.” Cheng Juan put his hands behind his head and smiled lazily. “Her friend will come the day after tomorrow. It’s an opportunity.”
