Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Panda Novel

Even in its heyday, the Qin family couldn’t compare with the Cheng family.

Butler Qin would surely have been shocked to hear this any other day…

But he had experienced too many things today.

Be it the doctors, Hao Dui, Gu Xichi, or the Research Institute, he had already become numb from all the waves of shock. At this time, even Cheng Juan’s identity sounded reasonable.

After all, in Beijing, even Old Master Cheng couldn’t seal off the roads.

In the whole capital, only Cheng Juan would dare to be so arrogant.

But even so, Butler Qin and Qin Xiuchen remained silent for a long time.

“Miss Qin…” After a long while, Butler Qin glanced at the dim lights outside and slowly trailed off.

He originally thought Qin Ran was just a Beijing University student…

Qin Xiuchen picked his jacket and said, “Go and find the Fourth Master tomorrow.”

“I know.” Butler Qin withdrew his thoughts about Qin Ran and looked down.

With Qin Ling’s current condition, he wouldn’t be able to participate in the heirs’ competition next week.

After they hung up, he made another call.

Qin Ling’s incident was fine, but the Qin family had another round of war to fight.

**

At the same time.

In the Lu family’s house.

Mother Lu sat on the sofa holding a photo album.

When Lu Zhaoying returned, she looked up, uncrossed her legs, and asked him about the situation.

“Xiao Ling met with a car accident.” Lu Zhaoying plopped onto the sofa and burrowed his head into the pillow after briefly explaining the incident.

Mother Lu stood up violently. “Is he alright?!”

“Master Juan is there, what could happen?” Lu Zhaoying looked up and frowned. “But he’s rather injured and hasn’t woken up yet.

“Also.” He turned to look at her. “Qin Ran changed the meeting time to noon tomorrow. Mom, why do you have to meet her?”

Closing the photo album, she sat back down onto the sofa and pursed her lips. “… to confirm something.”

**

The next day.

In the affiliated hospital.

Cheng Juan parked the car and they got out of it to see Qin Ling. Within 20 minutes, he left the ward and headed towards the museum.

The elevator was a little busy at this time and was still on the 28th floor.

Cheng Juan pressed the button and looked down. “It seems like Xiao Ling has the heir selection competition to attend next week.”

He sounded rather casual.

He figured there must have been a reason why the Fourth Master made a move at this time and had asked Hao Dui to check on it.

The fact that the Qin family’s bloodline was found and would attend the heir competition couldn’t be hidden from them.

Qin Ran glanced at him and thoughtfully nodded. “I know.”

Cheng Juan entered the elevator and pressed the first-floor button.

Watching the elevator go down, Qin Ran turned and went back to the ward.

She had made an appointment again with Lu Zhaoying and had no intention of returning home now. She sat on the sofa and took out her laptop.

Boarding her social account, she saw that Brother Ye sent her a pile of messages yesterday, and someone added her as well.

It was Scholar Liao. She directly accepted his request.

Qin Ling still didn’t wake up.

Qin Xiuchen went back for a shower last night and only went back after spending the whole night in the ward.

Now, Qin Hanqiu and Butler Qin were keeping watch.

At 9 am.

Standing up from the stool, Butler Qin checked the time, whispered something to Qin Hanqiu, and left the ward.

He felt a shadow behind him as soon as he left.

He turned around and saw Qin Ran. “Miss Qin, what’s wrong?” he asked, shocked.

“Nothing much. Where are you going? I’ll send you off.” She shook the phone in her hand.

Butler Qin immediately waved his hand. “No need, how could I ask you to? Ah Wen will send me.”

He just finished speaking when his phone rang.

It was Ah Wen.

The car parked downstairs had suddenly broken down.

1

Tucking her phone into her pocket and slightly raising her chin, Qin Ran calmly said, “I said I’ll send you.”

1

She was so imposing that Butler Qin didn’t dare to refuse.

He just followed her downstairs.

Downstairs, Cheng Mu’s car stopped steadily in front.

Qin Ran opened the co-pilot seat for Butler Qin.

In the driver’s seat, Cheng Mu tilted his head and politely introduced himself to Butler Qin. “I’m Cheng Mu.”

In a daze, Butler Qin sat down. “H- Hello.”

**

At the Qin family’s headquarters.

The Fourth Master stood at the desk, holding a fountain pen, and practicing calligraphy.

His subordinate respectfully knocked three times on the door.

Without looking up, the Fourth Master calmly wrote the word “Qin.” He seemed to be in a good mood and wrote very elegantly. “Qin Xiuchen has made a move?”

“Young Master Qin Zhao was caught yesterday and brought to the police station for questioning,” the subordinate said solemnly.

Although he expected Qin Xiuchen to make a move, he didn’t expect it to be so fast.

He paused and made a smear on the “Qin” word.

Putting aside his pen, he narrowed his sharp eyes. “Caught? No matter how bad Qin Zhao is, he won’t show his tracks so quickly.”

He lowered his eyes. Qin Xiuchen definitely wouldn’t let Qin Zhao go, but it didn’t mean he could find him so quickly.

Where on earth did he go wrong?

He pursed his lips. Or was it that Qin Xiuchen’s current power… had expanded a lot?

If it was the latter…

As he was thinking, the phone on the desk rang. It was the secretary. “Chairman Qin, Butler Qin is here with the shareholders.”

Smiling, he hung up, reached out to adjust his coat, and smirked.

It didn’t matter how much Qin Xiuchen’s power had expanded, because his goal had been achieved.

Taking a piece of tissue, he wiped away the ink that accidentally stained his finger.

1

He directly left for the meeting room.

Inside.

The Qin family’s shareholders and Butler Qin had all arrived.

Glancing across the table, the Fourth Master settled his gaze on Qin Ran and said affectionately, “My niece is also here.”

2

Qin Ran sat beside Butler Qin and looked down at her phone, ignoring him.

Her lowered eyebrows were covered with frost.

On the way here, she had clearly understood the situation. Coupled with Butler Qin and the others’ fear of the Fourth Master, Qin Ling’s incident was or more less connected to him.

Butler Qin stood up and scanned the entire conference room.

“I called everyone here today to discuss the delay of the heir selection.” He slightly bent over. “Young Master has been in a car accident, and it’s not convenient for him to participate in the selection now. We have discussed with the doctor and have to wait three months for his recovery period…”

As soon as he spoke, the quiet conference room was filled with slight discussion.

Most of the shareholders didn’t speak and only glanced at the Fourth Master.

Sitting at the forefront, he calmly picked up his teacup, blew the tea foam, and then looked up with a lukewarm expression. “That’s unfortunate. Just as we’re selecting heirs, the little nephew got injured. Are you guys deliberately delaying the time? In the recovery period of three months, who knows if you’ll privately find someone to crack our selection procedure…”

As soon as his words fell, the major shareholders nodded. “I’ve already vacated my schedule for Friday.”

The Qin family’s headquarters had been bought over by the Fourth Master, and with the top leaders’ priority being their interests, they supported him because it was profitable.

It didn’t matter who the Patriarch of the Qin family was as long as it was beneficial for them.

Obviously, most of them supported the Fourth Master.

“How could it be deliberate? Young Master is now in the affiliated hospital. You can go and see it for yourselves. He can’t participate in the selection in this state at all.” Butler Qin’s chest undulated and he widened his eyes in anger.

He didn’t believe that the Fourth Master wasn’t involved in Qin Ling’s car accident. He came today to fight for more time.

“Well, that’s your problem.” The Fourth Master took a sip of tea and gently smiled at him. “Butler Qin, doing business is like being on the battlefield. If such trivial matters can’t be solved, how are you going to lead the shareholders?”

Sitting next to Butler Qin, Qin Ran finally raised her eyes upon hearing this.

She put away her phone and looked up at the people in the conference room. After meeting the Fourth Master’s deep gaze, she smirked, looked away, and faintly said, “Butler Qin, they’re right. If they said so, then we’ll do it next week.”

After speaking, she stood up and left with her phone.

The Fourth Master was first taken aback before chuckling. “Sure enough, my niece knows the current affairs.”

Butler Qin stood up with his hands on the table.

He had already anticipated that this battle today was almost impossible to win.

He knew that according to the Fourth Master’s style, they would never have a chance to take a breather. But he still wanted to see the shareholders…

Pursing his lips and closing his eyes, he unwillingly followed Qin Ran.

“We’re too useless,” he said regretfully behind her. “We can’t participate in the selection ceremony next week. The Young Master has missed out on this opportunity. The Fourth Master will never give him another chance…”

Qin Ran stopped in front of the elevator and pressed the button. Upon hearing this, she kept her indifference, and her delicate face was slowly covered with frost.

Reaching out to pull her scarf, she turned to Butler Qin and calmly said, “Who said we’re not participating?”
