Lu Zhixin looked at Qin Ran, and they remained silent.
Cheng Mu remembered Lu Zhixin. He remained calm and greeted him. “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Lu. It turns out that Miss Qin was waiting for you.”
Lu Zhixin nodded.
Qin Hanqiu, Tang Jun, and the others noticed something wrong between Qin Ran and Lu Zhixin. Tang Jun turned to ask, “Ran Ran, do you two… know each other?”
“Yes.” Lu Zhixin’s mind was all over the place, and his eyes drifted slightly.
He knew Qin Ran since she was about 9 years old. She was young but extremely intelligent. Lu Zhixin was exceptionally warm towards her, and they had a close teacher-student relations.h.i.+p. Hence, Qin Ran naturally called him “Uncle Lu.”
Lu Zhixin never expected Qin Ran to be his biological niece.
His mind was blank, and he did not return to his senses.
Qin Hanqiu saw Lu Zhixin’s frustration. He turned to ask Qin Ran, “How do you two know each other?”
Lu Zhixin moved beside Chen Shulan back then. Qin Hanqiu and Ning Qing had divorced, so he rarely headed back. Lu Zhixin was also low-key, so it was natural that the two had never met.
Qin Ran looked up at the sky and said coldly, “He was my neighbor.”
“Neighbor?” Lu Zhixin first greeted Qin Hanqiu, then looked at her.
Qin Ran removed her scarf as she noticed Qin Xiuchen’s manager, Butler Qin, and Elder Li’s gazes turn to her.
“Let’s talk when we’re inside.” She looked at the entrance. There must be a reason why Lu Zhixin approached her, and it was likely due to the Yunguang Consortium.
Lu Zhixin nodded as his expressions warmed up. He greeted Tang Jun and the others before walking off with her. “Do you want to go back and take a look?”
“No.” Qin Ran rejected swiftly.
“Is this still something to do with physics?” Lu Zhixin was disappointed.
“This is a job.”
Lu Zhixin was speechless.
The two walked further and seemed very familiar as they chatted. The others could tell that they had known each other for a long time.
It was the opposite of what Elder Li said previously. Lu Zhixin was actually quite warm and enthusiastic.
Behind them, Butler Qin and the manager exchanged glances. The manager asked, “Butler Qin, little niece is…”
They both knew that the Tang family wasn’t simple, especially when they mentioned that the Tang family’s daughter joined the Hacker Alliance. From Tang Jun’s words, Lu Zhixin had a high status in the Tang family, and even the Tang family’s lady couldn’t match up to. But, seeing Qin Ran and Lu Zhixin…
Not to mention Butler Qin and the manager, even Elder Li was shocked as he looked in Lu Zhixin’s direction.
Only Cheng Mu was calm. He held the suitcase with one hand and said to Qin Hanqiu and Qin Ling, “Mr. Qin, I have to go. Mr. Lu and Miss Qin can take a long time when they start talking.”
Qin Hanqiu nodded. “What about Xiao Cheng…”
Cheng Juan hadn’t arrived yet.
Cheng Mu shook his head and said, “Don’t worry about him.”
Cheng Juan would likely walk through the internal pa.s.sage.
He had nothing to worry about. He left after Qin Hanqiu, Tang Jun and the others said their farewells.
Behind, Elder Li and the chief steward had not come to their senses.
Especially the chief steward.
Elder Li looked at Tang Jun and asked, “Old Master, Miss Qin was the friend Second Young Master was talking about, right?”
Yesterday, Lu Zhixin said that he had a friend waiting for him at the airport. Lu Zhixin only considered a few people to be his friend.
They were mostly from the Yunguang Consortium.
Tang Jun continued to look in Lu Zhixin’s direction. He squinted as he recalled something.
Lu Zhixin’s description of Qin Ran…
After a long while, he finally regained his senses. “It must be her.”
The Tang family members stood at the airport for a while before leaving.
The chief steward couldn’t resist and asked Elder Li, “It seemed like Miss Qin and Second Young Master were very close.”
Second Young Master had never talked to Old Master in that manner…
Most importantly, how could Lu Zhixin’s friends be ordinary?
…
10:11 am. Everyone had boarded the plane.
Qin Ran and Lu Zhixin sat on the right side, and Cheng Juan calmly rushed in. Seeing Lu Zhixin and Qin Ran, he stopped by the door.
Cheng Mu sat on a seat beside the door. He hadn’t slept well these few days and was already wearing an eye mask. Sensing Cheng Juan, he pulled down his eye mask.
“Master Juan.” He lifted his head to look at Cheng Juan and explained, “Mr. Lu is Miss Qin’s Uncle.”
He thought about it again and said, “Biological uncle.”
Cheng Juan stopped. He knew about the Tang family, but since Qin Ran didn’t pay attention to that, he didn’t further investigate the Qin family out of respect.
Lu Zhixin was Qin Ran’s uncle, and Cheng Juan realized that he had the same aura as her…
He looked at Lu Zhixin and took a seat behind Cheng Mu in the same row as Qin Ran.
The plane landed at Beijing Airport at 11 pm.
Tang Jun, who was in Continent M, called Lu Zhixin when he turned on his phone.
“Zhixin.” Tang Jun stood by the window of the living room looking at the lights outside the manor. “Ran Ran must be the Yunguang Consortium’s Poppy, right?”
