Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Panda Novel

Jerry was stunned.

Then, he took a step back. He was good at cursing out others, but he was also good at being respectful. “Miss Qin.”

Other than Cheng Juan, Qin Ran’s prestige had been established amongst these people just based on the attitudes of the leaders and the terrifying Cheng Shui and Cheng Huo.

Tang Qing turned and stared at Qin Ran.

Qin Ran pulled down her hat and exquisitely raised her eyebrows. “There’s no need to be so polite. I’m not the protagonist today.”

Behind her, Shi Liming wore a hat and a mask, and only a few people could forcibly recognize him from just his figure alone.

Qin Ran and the others had obviously come for them, so Jerry pursed his lips and asked, “Miss Qin, is there a problem?”

Everyone in the manor knew that Qin Ran liked to play.

1Was she here to look around the training ground?

Shi Liming took a step forward but didn’t answer.

Not far away, a young man hurried over.

He rushed directly to Tang Qing excitedly. “Miss Tang, Mr. Cheng Huo asked me to find you. Progress has been made on Xiao Hei’s code!”

After reporting this, the young man saw Qin Ran. He immediately took a step back and politely greeted her. “Miss Qin.”

Qin Ran’s hand was still in her pocket. When she heard him, she frowned slightly and glanced at the young man. “Are you studying the code on Xiao Hei?”

The young man nodded and was about to say something.

However, while standing coolly, Tang Qing, who had yet to speak, finally said, “Go back to Brother Cheng Huo first. We haven’t cracked the code yet.”

She directly interrupted the young man and simply said lightly without looking at anyone, “You can’t explain how far we’re at now.”

This was naturally directed to the young man.

The technicians belonged to the information hall in the manor, so normal people really couldn’t understand the talks of the code or how to solve it.

The young man scratched his head and opened his mouth, not knowing where to begin explaining to Qin Ran.

Qin Ran might not understand if he explained from the beginning, and he wanted to rush back to see Cheng Huo’s simulation results.

Standing on the side, Tang Qing watched the young man coolly and smirked. She remained silent and turned to the direction of the information hall, her blond hair swaying slightly in an arc.

“Okay, you can go.” Qin Ran looked away.

The young man followed behind Tang Qing busily. “Miss Qin, I’ll go back to the information hall first, then.”

“This person…” Cheng Mu was originally thinking of the challenge, but he frowned when he heard their conversation.

Qin Ran looked down and smiled lightly. “It’s okay, they won’t be able to solve it.”

“That’s good.” Cheng Mu felt more at ease now since he knew how good Qin Ran’s computer skills were.

However, Shi Liming didn’t know. He stepped forward and asked in a low voice, “Why can’t they solve it? Mr. Cheng Huo is very powerful. I heard that Miss Tang is very capable as well and is second only to him…”

Qin Ran didn’t speak and just surveyed her surroundings. There was a bar a few steps away. She put her hands behind her head and slowly walked over. “Because they’re rookies.”

1Qin Ran sat on the bar and looked up at Cheng Mu.

Cheng Mu clenched his hands into fists, his dark eyes full of perseverance. He took a step forward and stared at Jerry. “I want to challenge you today.”

Seeing that Qin Ran wasn’t speaking to him, Jerry had gone to the weapon rack to take his weapon.

But he was stunned for a moment after hearing this and felt like he had heard wrongly. “What did you say?”

“I want to challenge you.” Cheng Mu’s face was blank and his words were concise.

The people around Jerry exchanged glances and lowered their voices. “Is this Cheng Mu looking for torture? He actually dares to challenge you?”

Besides the fact that Cheng Mu hadn’t been to the training ground this month, even if he had, he was far from being Jerry’s opponent.

Jerry also narrowed his eyes. He didn’t think of this but looked at Qin Ran with deep eyes.

Cheng Mu had challenged him, but why was Qin Ran here?

Did she want him to show mercy?

1Jerry’s expression turned dark.

Qin Ran sat on the bar with her hands by her side. Her legs swayed slightly, and her brows looked casual in the sunlight, reflecting her willfulness.

She seemed to have guessed Jerry’s thoughts, as she slightly raised her eyes and laughed. “Give it your all, don’t worry about me. I don’t care about these kinds of things.”

Jerry asked carefully, “Miss Qin, are… are you sure?”

“Of course, I just came here to watch the show.” Qin Ran laughed lazily and really didn’t seem affected.

She really didn’t mean to support Cheng Mu. Jerry sighed in relief. He changed out of his coat and into his training gear in the back lounge.

<span>1Shi Liming stood calmly on the other side, watching the show with the others.

Some people from the procurement hall were also here. Seeing Shi Liming, they couldn’t help but inquire. “Why is Cheng Mu suddenly challenging Jerry? It’s not wise to do this.”

It wasn’t just Jerry who had exchanged fists with Cheng Mu before, but he had indeed been the most ruthless and disdainful of them all. The people from the information hall had such a temperament.

Now, Cheng Mu had come to challenge Jerry again under everyone’s watchful eyes. With Qin Ran’s reassurance, given Jerry’s personality, he was likely to be even more ruthless and intense.

After all, it was Cheng Mu who had picked the fight.

“And you, you haven’t been here to train for half a month,” The people from the procurement hall couldn’t see Shi Liming’s face, so they lowered their heads and whispered to him. “Leader Zhou has already started training a different successor.”

Although Shi Liming couldn’t enter the law enforcement hall, he was considered capable in the procurement hall. Previously, Leader Zhou had been cultivating him as a seeded player, but because of his burnout, he decided to change targets.

“I haven’t stopped training.” Shi Liming smiled. Recently, although he hadn’t participated in any training sessions for more than ten days, he had really learned a lot through watching Qin Ran fight with Cheng Mu every day. During his free time, Qin Ran would even talk about some uses of force and combat skills. “In fact, we have been training with Miss Qin.”

He lowered his voice and said ostentatiously.

Shi Liming’s tone was so dedicated and triumphant that the people around him couldn’t help but smirk. “The way you said it, I thought you were training with the Boss? Cheng Mu dared to challenge Jerry because of this?”

**

No gossip could be concealed nowadays, and Shi Liming’s remarks only took a few minutes to spread.

1It reached Jerry’s ears after he changed his clothes.

Wearing a black practice uniform, he came out and bumped into Cheng Mu. He frowned and said, “Cheng Mu, it’s not shameful to lose to me. Don’t think you can defeat me after learning some random tricks from Miss Qin. We have fought in the ring before. Before we start, you can take the chance to negotiate with us. Let me tell you first, I won’t go easy on you. By that time, you’ll not only lose your own face but Miss Qin’s face as well.”

Everyone in the manor now respected Qin Ran, but once this news spread, they might not really respect her inside even if they pretended to.

Cheng Mu glanced at him and said in a cold voice, “No need.”

When the two of them came out, Qin Ran was still sitting on the crossbar, supporting herself with one hand while holding her phone and playing a game with the other.

After seeing the two of them, she quickly ended her game and raised an eyebrow.

Her beautiful and delicate face was a little lazy and seemed to have not much offensive power. The others really didn’t think she could teach Cheng Mu anything.

They gave way to open space.

Jerry took out his long weapon stick.

Cheng Mu didn’t take anything and just stood there waiting for Jerry. At this time, many people rushed over to watch the show and couldn’t help but laugh at this scene. “Why didn’t he take a weapon?”

“Maybe he’s too powerful and can defeat him casually with any weapon! Just like Mr. Cheng Shui!” In the manor, Cheng Shui never used weapons when fighting.

Cheng Shui was powerful and didn’t need any weapons as an aid.

This man appeared to be speaking up for Cheng Mu, but in fact, he was being sarcastic. Most people here looked down on Cheng Mu. He obviously didn’t have strength, yet he still occupied such an important position and lived in the old castle.

Cheng Mu had trained in the training ground before, so most of them knew he was too weak.

“It might not be the case. What if Miss Qin has really taught him well?”

“What can she teach in half a month?”

“Let’s bet how long he can endure under Jerry’s attacks? Two minutes?”

“He was knocked down within one minute last time. I think barely a minute and a half…”

Hearing their words, Cheng Mu stayed still and glanced at Jerry. “Are you ready?”

The referee was a member of the law enforcement hall. Before he announced the start of the competition, he gave Cheng Mu a glance and lowered his voice so only the two of them could hear. “Mr. Cheng Mu, there’s no shortcut in strength. Jerry has been training since a young age and has even fought in the ring before. Even if Miss Qin has taught you, you can just admit defeat and end the competition. Just say that Jerry has taught you a lesson…”

Cheng Mu glanced at the man and remained silent. When he announced the start, he directly pounced forward with his fists.

His punch was sharp and wasn’t at all like his previous style.

Jerry had originally been a little relaxed, but after seeing this, his expression changed instantly and he quickly took a step back.

However, Cheng Mu’s movements were much faster than he thought!

“Boom—”

Before Jerry could even wave his stick, Cheng Mu found his flaw and threw him to the ground.

Jerry injured his back but still got up quickly in less than a second. This move was also ruthless!

1All the people who had been laughing fell silent now.

They could all tell that Jerry hadn’t gone easy on him at all!

However…

“Boom—”

With a subtle “scratch” sound, Jerry was slammed backward. Several of his ribs broke and blood burst out of the corners of his mouth.

<span>1He staggered a few steps and couldn’t stand firmly. Kneeling on the spot, he couldn’t even support himself up with his wooden stick.

It had happened in less than a minute.

At this moment, the onlookers were dumbfounded and speechless.
