Qin Ran didn’t know what happened.

She just glanced at Butler Qin.

With such disheartening things happening in the Cheng family, Butler Qin originally didn’t want Qin Ran to be involved. Now that she asked, he just breezed past the details and explained to her.

Qin Ran glanced at Leng Peishan and nodded slightly after hearing him.

Sitting opposite them, Fourth Master Qin’s expression changed.

Even though Cheng Juan was now shot down, Fourth Master Qin was still afraid of Qin Ran. He was still afraid of the Xu family despite Ouyang Wei’s support. Furthermore, an outsider had even climbed to the position of the Research Inst.i.tute’s heir.

How could Fourth Master Qin possibly underestimate Qin Ran?

Ouyang Wei’s words rang in his ears. “To win or die trying.” Fourth Master Qin bit the bullet and repeated himself. “Have you thought about it?”

Qin Hanqiu took a pen and didn’t reply to him immediately.

Instead, Qin Ran knocked on the table. She placed her hand at her mouth and whispered, “Agree to withdraw from this joint venture case.”

Qin Hanqiu nodded. He thought so too.

Finding a bank loan was also a way out, but there would always be the problem of the 18% equity.

Qin Hanqiu thought for a moment while looking at Fourth Master Qin. “Okay, our contract ends here.”

The two parties canceled the contract very neatly.

Qin Hanqiu’s simple and neat response to the problem with Qin Ran’s partic.i.p.ation made Fourth Master Qin doubtful.

Fourth Master Qin took the contract and squinted at Qin Hanqiu.

He stared at him for a long time before turning to Leng Peishan.

“Miss Leng.” Fourth Master Qin always felt like Qin Ran was the biggest uncertainty in this. He hesitated for a moment. “Qin Hanqiu is so calm. Something must be wrong…”

Leng Peishan shook her head and let out a long sigh of relief. “She’s probably not short of money. But with so much liquidity, even the bank would need time to mobilize it. The most important thing now is that their team needs hardware and software engineers. It’s not something that can be resolved with money in a short time. Let’s do our project first.”

Having said this, Leng Peishan thought for a moment and turned to Fourth Master Qin. “We also lack personnel like that. Go and tell the people in the Qin Corporation that no matter which technician it is, you’ll accept them as long as they’re willing to come over.”

This method was indeed ruthless.

He was pulling the carpets from under them.

Many people would definitely want to come. After all, they all wanted to climb further up the ladders.

Furthermore, news of Qin Hanqiu and his team’s shortage of funds would soon spread…

Fourth Master Qin glanced at Leng Peishan and then set about letting the others handle the matter.

**

On the other side.

Qin Ran was still sitting in the office, turning over the plan while Qin Hanqiu continued discussing follow-up matters with the head of the Qin Corporation’s Engineering Department.

The plan was very thick and included field investigations, funds, and personnel transfer…

There were more than forty pages.

Reading ten lines at a glance, Qin Ran finished reading it by the time Qin Hanqiu and the others were done.

She understood Qin Hanqiu’s most pressing problem now.

Knowledge was the best charity. Qin Ran knew she could easily give them the funds, but it was of little use in the long run.

She tapped her fingers on the table, thinking of countermeasures.

“Ran Ran, let’s go back first.” Qin Hanqiu reached out and patted her shoulder, frowning. “I don’t know if Ah Wen took care of my soup.”

He looked rather anxious as he picked up his jacket and returned to Yunjin Community.

Qin Hanqiu and the others left.

Everyone else in the office exchanged glances…

Qin Hanqiu…

He was really a little out of touch.

They packed their things and left. Unexpectedly, the door opened again.

It was Fourth Master Qin’s confidant. He politely nodded at the others in the office and then conveyed Leng Peishan’s meaning to them. “Miss Leng said that she hopes everyone will reconsider. We’ll welcome you to join our team.”

He nodded at them again before leaving.

The staff members took a long time to return to their senses. He glanced at Minister Qin and paused. “Minister Qin, this…”

Minister Qin left without saying anything.

The others lowered their heads and carefully thought over what Fourth Master Qin’s confidant just said.

…

On the other side.

Qin Hanqiu went back and whipped up a few more dishes. Although the Qin Corporation was in trouble now, he still appeared very calm.

The Qin family had a happy meal.

“Xiao Cheng likes to eat my pork ribs and soup. He didn’t come today, so you can bring some back for him.” Qin Hanqiu had long kept the dishes. “It tastes even better than last time. You have to let him try it.”

Qin Ran personally took the container and looked down at it. “Okay, I’ll tell him.”

“I’m afraid I’ve been a little busy lately.” Qin Hanqiu wiped his head with a towel and frowned. “I won’t have time to see you. You two must take good care of yourselves.”

Qin Ran just quietly listened.

She whispered a few words to Qin Ling and then returned with Cheng Mu.

After a round trip from the Qin Corporation, it was already 10 pm when they arrived at Ting Lan.

Cheng Mu didn’t accompany Qin Ran upstairs at this time.

He got off the elevator directly on the next floor. When Qin Ran returned, the lights in the hall were still on.

Cheng Juan was waiting for her on the sofa, mindlessly flipping through shows on the muted television.

He looked up upon hearing her.

“I brought back ribs and soup from my Dad.” Putting down the container, Qin Ran took out a bowl and a pair of chopsticks. “Come and eat.”

Cheng Juan hadn’t had much of an appet.i.te lately.

She went upstairs to retrieve her computer.

Sitting across from him, she reached out and opened the doc.u.ment. She directly added a poppy flower logo to the lower-right corner of each page of the doc.u.ment.
