News of Qin Ran had always been hidden.

Not only was she young at that time, but she was also impatient and had a bad temper. Anxious and hot-tempered, she only had the patience for the development of source codes.

She simply didn’t reveal her face.

She basically acted as a shopkeeper for them.

In the end, she became the most mysterious person in the center of the Yunguang Consortium, whom even the Yunguang Consortium didn’t have information on.

During New Year’s, most of them were very busy, but there were also many foreigners in the Yunguang Consortium who didn’t commemorate it, like Ku Ke.

People who didn’t commemorate the New Year always went to the forum. As long as one person knew of Poppy’s account, it meant everyone in the entire engineering community did too.

The news spread, and even some computer students knew that this person was regarded as a G.o.d by the major professors of the computing department.

Most students clicked on the link to take a look.

The Yunguang Consortium didn’t usually have so many page views, and only employees or insiders visited the website.

But not only was the number of views overloaded tonight, so was the number of downloads.

Qin Ran made public all the 30-odd game software links she had.

Everyone knew that Poppy’s products were exquisite.

They clicked to download it.

This was the specific reason why the forum collapsed.

After listening to Qin Ran’s explanation, Lu Zhixin couldn’t help but look up in silence. “Okay, I understand.”

He had no other choice. No one in the company could lecture Qin Ran, not even Yang Shuyan.

Firstly, she was the chief engineer specially invited by the company.

Secondly, she never got paid.

Even Lu Zhixin didn’t know why she wanted to come to this company.

But he couldn’t get a reply from her, either. She would just say that she was solving the source code, not modeling it.

After hanging up, he continued working overtime to maintain the forum, so as not to disturb other employees’ New Year celebrations.

Because of this, Poppy, who had gradually faded out of everyone’s field of vision after the summer vacation, suddenly returned to everyone’s vision.

Her forum fans rose from 0 to 8,900, sweeping everyone else in an invincible manner.

Of course, these fans weren’t comparable to her fans on Weibo.

Cheng Juan and Qin Hanqiu were still drinking. Halfway through, Qin Hanqiu took out his phone to video call Qin Xiuchen, who had just ended work and was celebrating New Year’s Eve with the crew.

After Qin Ran and Qin Ling greeted him, Qin Hanqiu regretfully said, “I wanted to fly to Continent M originally, but Ah Wen said no ticket was available…”

They talked for about 20 minutes before hanging up for dinner.

At the side, Cheng Juan looked up after they hung up and turned to him. “Uncle, when are you going to Continent M? We’re also heading there.”

“Are you going to that compet.i.tion too?” Qin Hanqiu was a little drunk but was still in a good mood. “Xiao Ling and I are going in a few days, but it’s difficult to buy the tickets.”

Cheng Juan glanced at Qin Ran, who was sitting side by side with Butler Qin watching TV on the sofa. He shook his gla.s.s of wine, leaned back, and lazily said, “It just so happens that their school team is leaving on the 17th. I’ll buy tickets for us together.”

“But there are no tickets…” Qin Hanqiu was taken aback.

Cheng Juan lowered his eyes and took another sip of wine. “There are.”

**

On February 17th.

It was the sixth day of the first lunar month.

The Beijing University International team departed.

There was a time difference between Beijing and Continent M, and it would take a day to get there.

After introducing the venue to them and getting to know the other teams, it would take a day to adjust to their best condition.

Beijing University’s team set off rather late because it was the New Year’s. University A’s team had already left for Continent M half a month ago.

Beijing University’s team didn’t have many people, and the leaders were Dean Jiang and Dr. Zhou.

The ICNE International compet.i.tion was very important to Beijing University.

University rankings were based on various scientific research results and academic reports, among which SCI papers and influential compet.i.tions were of utmost importance.

They were Beijing University’s only team qualified for an international compet.i.tion in recent years.

Beijing University, especially the Physics Department, was extremely important.

Qin Ran, Nan Huiyao, Chu Heng, Xing Kai, and Brother Ye gathered.

After three months, Nan Huiyao and Xing Kai underwent huge changes.

The five of them stood together and discussed the project in low voices.

Brother Ye and Chu Heng each held a doc.u.ment in their hands.

They all stayed behind with the school teams. Instead of sitting with Qin Ran and the others, Cheng Juan got onto the plane first with Qin Hanqiu and the others at the VIP entrance.

Once they had entered, Ah Wen turned to Ah Hai and hesitantly asked, “Weren’t the tickets sold out?”

Ah Hai shook his head, looked away from Cheng Juan, and then turned to Qin Ran again in a slightly solemn att.i.tude. “I don’t know.”

The plane set off at 9:30 am.

It arrived at Continent M’s landing strip at 4 pm.

Standing on the tarmac, Cheng Juan glanced at the Beijing University team and paused. He turned to Qin Hanqiu. “Uncle, someone is really coming to pick you up?”

“Go with Ran Ran first.” Qin Hanqiu was worried about her and let Cheng Juan hurry off. “Xiao Ling’s uncle will come to pick us up.”

Cheng Juan nodded slightly. “Okay.”

The landing strip was his own territory. He had already informed Huo’er to keep an eye on Qin Hanqiu and the others.

To ensure that nothing happened to them.

Cheng Juan was rest a.s.sured and greeted them before directly walking to the exit.

Glancing around, Qin Hanqiu informed Tang Jun of their location.

He didn’t contact Qin Xiuchen. With Tang Jun around, Qin Hanqiu was a.s.sured of his and Qin Ling’s safety. He didn’t want to affect Qin Xiuchen’s filming and also wanted to give him a surprise.

Tang Jun arrived very quickly.

Cheng Juan only left 20 minutes before he arrived.

Qin Hanqiu gave his New Year’s greetings and beamed widely. “Xiao Ling, this is your Uncle.”

Following behind, Butler Qin also respectfully called, “Great Uncle.”

Having already seen Qin Ling in videos before, Tang Jun was even happier to see him in person. His smile spread widely across his face and couldn’t be hidden.

“I thought you would arrive a little later.” Tang Jun led them out of the landing strip with a cheerful expression. “Come and stay with us for a while.”

Holding Qin Ling with one hand, Qin Hanqiu thought of something and directly said, “We came in time to watch Ran Ran’s compet.i.tion as well. Uncle, do you want to come along? It’s that compet.i.tion with tickets that are difficult to get, but Ran Ran is sure to have more tickets with her.”

As he talked, Elder Li glanced at him, his lips twitching…

There were tickets in Continent M that the President couldn’t get?

These two had high vision and didn’t take such ordinary compet.i.tions to heart.

Tang Jun didn’t think much of it and simply asked, “What kind of compet.i.tion is it? Can I go?”

“I think it’s some physics compet.i.tion.” Qin Hanqiu took out his phone to message Qin Ran. “I’ll ask Ran Ran for a ticket. If she doesn’t have it, I’m sure Xiao Cheng will.”

Tang Jun smiled and nodded. With his myriad of experiences, such an ordinary event in Continent M was considered nothing to him.

He was only excited to see his strange grandniece.
