Both of them subconsciously stopped talking.

Qin Xiuchen was only thinking of Qin Ran and the Fourth Master. He collected his thoughts the moment he saw Qin Ran.

Although he hadn’t specifically asked her about it, and he knew she had her own secrets, he was indeed shocked by her after his return to Beijing.

Be it Hao Dui or the Research Inst.i.tute…

Various thoughts flashed by in his mind.

Qin Ran didn’t think as much and hadn’t seen Qin Ling’s current condition yet. She directly pa.s.sed the information from Hao Dui to Qin Xiuchen and pressed her eyebrows. “This is the case from Hao Dui.”

Putting away the unlit cigarette, Qin Xiuchen took the doc.u.ment. He wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words.

He just silently looked down at the information.

After talking to them, she went inside to see Qin Ling without asking what they were discussing.

Butler Qin glanced at the closed door and looked up. “They found these so quickly? They only went out to investigate at noon, and it has been less than four hours…”

“The Criminal Investigation team isn’t just for display.” Qin Xiuchen turned over the information and quickly saw Qin Zhao, the key figure. His eyes turned chilly. “Qin Zhao’s methods are fundamentally nothing in Hao Dui’s eyes.”

He wasn’t in the least bit surprised.

Butler Qin nodded and stayed beside him to read the information. “It turned out to be Qin Zhao… they discovered it so clearly?”

Even though the timing wasn’t suitable, Butler Qin still had an unspeakable feeling in his heart…

He had heard Qin Xiuchen mention a few things about the Criminal Investigation team previously, but only rumors. Only now did he realize that their reputation was indeed well-deserved.

In such a short period of time, he was afraid other sub-bureaus wouldn’t even find Qin Zhao.

Hao Dui not only found Qin Zhao but also listed all the evidence…

Qin Xiuchen remained speechless after reading the information and just opened the door to go in.

Inside the ward, Qin Ran was standing by Qin Ling’s bedside looking at his report.

The manager was sitting on the sofa, half-squinting. He hadn’t slept all day and night and was now very drowsy.

Qin Hanqiu stood beside her.

He was talking to her.

“That Hao Dui… Ran Ran, how do you know them? How did you ask them to help you?” Qin Hanqiu’s expression was solemn, and he spoke with a lowered voice. He had heard about Gu Xichi from Qin Ling and knew it was the person he met at the hotel last time.

But the others…

No matter how stupid he was, he knew they weren’t ordinary people.

Especially Hao Dui, who had an imposing aura, unlike ordinary criminal investigation team members.

He was a little worried.

Upon hearing his question, all the other people p.r.i.c.ked their ears, especially the half-asleep manager.

Flipping through the records and checking that Qin Ling’s vital signs were all normal, she returned the case and said casually, “They’re not my friends.”

Hao Dui and Cheng Mu were Cheng Juan’s men, so it was accurate for her to say so.

Qin Hanqiu nodded. He felt like he could understand her explanation and was slightly relieved. “They’re Xiao Cheng’s friends?”

Qin Ran just nodded and suddenly looked outside the door.

The others couldn’t understand her movement and only watched as she suddenly walked over to yank the door open.

Standing outside the door was a fat girl about nine years old. Seeing the door open, she raised her head and pursed her lips. Her eyes were dark and clear, and her blue and white plaid down jacket was dusty and b.l.o.o.d.y. “This is his stone.”

She reached out and pressed the stone in her palm to Qin Ran.

Then, she turned and walked towards the end of the corridor without saying a word.

Qin Ran raised an eyebrow.

“Isn’t this the stone I gave to Brother Xiao Ling?” At the end of the corridor, Gu Xichi slowly walked over and pa.s.sed by the girl. He glanced at her and then walked over to Qin Ran.

“Yes, Xiao Ling must have dropped it during the car accident. She must have found it.” Qin Ran withdrew her gaze.

Nodding, Gu Xichi turned to look at the little girl’s back and frowned. “There must be a problem with that little girl’s medicine…”

They exchanged a few words before Gu Xichi entered the ward with Qin Ran.

He wore a white sweater, beige slacks, and looked extremely young and handsome. He also held a white plastic bag in his hands.

After entering the ward, he greeted Qin Xiuchen and Qin Hanqiu one by one and introduced himself to them.

Hearing that he was Mr. Gu, they quickly stood up and thanked him.

Gu Xichi didn’t dare let them bow to him and directly avoided it. “I didn’t do anything. This time, the chief doctor is my senior, it has nothing to do with me.”

While talking, he walked to the instrument next to Qin Ling’s bed and checked the data before putting down the bag onto the white low table. “Xiao Ran, these experimental drugs have their usages written on top. Wait for Xiao Ling to wake up before getting him to take them after every three meals…”

Butler Qin took his words very seriously on the side.

After Gu Xichi checked a series of data and wanted to return to the Research Inst.i.tute, Qin Xiuchen and the others sent him to the elevator.

The directors, a group of doctors, and the Dean also came by in the afternoon…

Qin Xiuchen was also shocked at first, but now, he slowly calmed down and walked to the ward after sending Gu Xichi off.

These people valued Qin Ran. However, no matter how polite they were, Qin Xiuchen and the others didn’t dare to neglect them in the slightest bit.

“Sixth Master, I heard the nurse say that Mr. Gu is from Continent M’s medical organization…” Butler Qin lowered his voice.

Not in the circle, Qin Xiuchen’s manager had never heard of Gu Xichi. Hearing this, he looked up and asked in a surprised tone, “Continent M’s medical organization?”

He didn’t know what kind of organization that was.

But as long as it was a force that could gain a foothold in Continent M, it mustn’t be simple.

For example, Continent M’s a.s.sociation…

With a license plate number, they could freely enter and exit Continent M, and wouldn’t be targeted by messy people.

The manager had obtained the most direct experience from his two trips to Continent M.

Glancing at the manager, Butler Qin nodded stiffly. “Yes. After he returned to China, he stayed in the Beijing Research Inst.i.tute.”

They felt like they had overcome a calamity after hearing the doctors say that Qin Ling was alright.

Butler Qin relaxed and talked about other things.

The manager asked, “Did the little niece go to Continent M before?”

He had regretted Qin Ran’s failure to go to Continent M’s a.s.sociation after seeing w.a.n.g Zifeng.

But now… he felt like his own thinking was wrong.

Of course, he never expected that Qin Ran had been to Continent M before and was even quite familiar with the few big bosses there.

After a long while, he relaxed and turned to Qin Xiuchen. “Film Emperor Qin, we have the little niece now. You don’t have to shoulder the burden of Butler Qin’s trouble by yourself. It’s time for you to rest.”

If something like this happened in the past, Qin Xiuchen would have traveled back without finis.h.i.+ng his movie. He wouldn’t have slept for at least a week and would be guarded against the Fourth Master every second…

Qin Xiuchen turned and glanced at him.

The manager took back what he just said and shook his head. “Okay, I know you don’t want to involve her in this matter. She has no sense of belonging to the Qin family. But she cares about Xiao Ling, right? Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, the little niece definitely doesn’t worry as much as you do. I’m going home first.”

He patted Qin Xiuchen on the shoulder.

He also felt very lethargic and finally went home to clean himself up after Qin Ling’s condition had stabilized.

He also took out his phone to share the good news with the people in Film Emperor Qin’s studio.

“I’ll go back too.” Qin Xiuchen looked down at Qin Zhao’s information.

Inside.

Qin Hanqiu poured another gla.s.s of water for Qin Ran. “Where’s Xiao Cheng? Is he very busy?”

His expression improved a lot at the mention of Cheng Juan.

He took out his phone to call Cheng Juan. “Xiao Cheng probably hasn’t taken a break yet, right? Will I be disturbing him…”

He pressed the number but didn’t dial immediately for fear of disturbing Cheng Juan’s rest.

He looked inquisitively at Qin Ran.

“No need, he’ll come to see Xiao Ling’s condition later.” Qin Ran looked down at her phone and found He Chen’s number before continuing, “I’ll go out to make a call first.”

She went out with her phone.

Butler Qin turned to Qin Hanqiu.

Qin Hanqiu was stunned. “What?”

“That Xiao Cheng… who is he?” Butler Qin asked cautiously.

Qin Hanqiu had mentioned Xiao Cheng more than once before, but his description of him was too vague. He wasn’t a doctor and had a double major.

Qin Xiuchen and Butler Qin hadn’t thought more into it.

But today…

Upon hearing the doctors, how Gu Xichi addressed him as “Brother,” and how Hao Dui had come for “Xiao Cheng”…
