Chapter 250 - Pinnacle of Life, Big Boss Covering for You

“Yes, please bear with it,” the person who just asked Mason to curry favor alongside him said immediately.

Several others also nodded.

Mason couldn’t bear their hypocrisy and said directly, “Then I’ll be the only one to follow Miss Qin.”

“You still said you weren’t trying to curry favor with her?”

“Mason, you’re going overboard!”

“Mason, give the extremely painful job of following Miss Qin to me!” Someone covered his heart and said.

“I think I can reluctantly do it instead...”

“...”

Huo’er was a capable military commander who guarded the aircraft parking ground. People like Mason were both capable and intelligent.

However, Huo’er was rather dense. He hadn’t thought much about it after hearing their conversation and really believed that these men couldn’t bear Miss Qin. This was why he had said such things.

But he finally understood their intentions now.

What the hell, if they want to follow Miss Qin, can’t they just be straightforward about it? Why do they have to beat about the bush?!

Are they all Movie Kings?!

“Enough, Mason will do.” Huo’er didn’t have time to talk around corners with them and directly appointed Mason. “You’ll be in charge of Miss Qin for the four months that she’s here. Just find another two men from the technical department.”

Then, he went to the restaurant to find Cheng Juan and Qin Ran.

Mason glanced faintly at the others and reached out to pat his sleeves. “Everyone, thank you for yielding.”

The others were speechless.

After the group of people came back with Qin Ran last time, they had already started spreading rumors about the barbecue incident.

Especially Cheng Shui...

Although he hadn’t come along, he had sent the videos taken by Cheng Mu and Leader Du to them.

Hence, everyone knew very well that, no matter what, following Qin Ran would do them good...

They had all been on guard on the surface, but who knew that Mason would get the nod instead...

At the same time, in Continent M’s manor.

After dealing with his business, Cheng Shui called Shi Liming over.

“Mr. Cheng Shui.” After his limelight in the year-end assessment, Shi Liming had already been successfully promoted to the law enforcement hall. He was now leading a team with Luo Dui.

He wore a captain’s uniform and also held the same communicator as Cheng Mu that had triggered other people’s jealousy.

When Cheng Shui saw him approaching, he put down the pen in his hand and squinted slightly. “Shi Liming, you should know that Miss Qin just left the manor today.”

“Yes, Miss Qin went to send Mr. Gu off,” Shi Liming bowed slightly and replied respectfully.

Hearing this, Cheng Shui shook his head. “Miss Qin will be staying at the aircraft parking ground for a few months to settle some things. She will then return to China.”

Shi Liming was completely stunned.

“You have been following Miss Qin this whole month.” Cheng Shui pondered for a moment and then said solemnly, “If you’re willing, I can directly remove your traces on the manor. Starting today, you can follow Miss Qin. Are you will—”

“Mr. Cheng Shui, of course I’m willing!” Shi Liming interrupted excitedly without hesitation.

Following Qin Ran was akin to following Cheng Juan. Most importantly, Miss Qin would cover for him!

Other than Cheng Mu, nobody else in the manor, not even Cheng Shui, could reach such a pinnacle!

Cheng Shui was speechless. He wanted to take his words back now.

After a long pause, Shi Liming couldn’t help but look up apprehensively. “Mr. Cheng Shui, I... can I still go?”

Cheng Shui threw his documents to him expressionlessly and swore for the first time. “Get lost.”

Qin Ran’s room was the first one at the bottom of the corridor, while the second room belonged to Cheng Juan.

Cheng Mu now stayed in the third room.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Cheng Mu waited at Qin Ran’s door.

She came out of her room, yawning. Then, she passed a flower pot to him.

Cheng Mu took it and hugged it in his arms.

After more than a month, the flowers had withered long ago, and there were no more seeds. These days, even the leaves seemed a little withered.

Cheng Mu carried it to the greenhouse on the fourth floor. Outside was a layer of glass that would change color with the sun at any time. It was now midwinter in the twelfth lunar month, so the glass was currently transparent.

He put the flowers on a shelf and sent a picture to Lin Siran to ask her what to do with it.

Since it was the holidays, Lin Siran spent her days playing games with Qiao Sheng, Qin Ran, and the others.

She was still sleeping at this time and naturally didn’t reply.

Cheng Mu waited for a long time and still didn’t receive a reply. Hence, he took out the gardening tools from his backpack and routinely took care of the flowers before going out to find Qin Ran and the others.

Downstairs, Mason was deciding who from the technical department to appoint.

There were many talents in the technical department. He had thought long and hard about it last night and had decided on two candidates.

Huo’er stood patiently beside Mason and listened to him giving instructions. “Are you sure about these two people?”

“They are the two most powerful IT technicians in the department,” Mason replied respectfully. “They can be used by Miss Qin.”

In order to avoid any collisions, Huo’er had already notified everyone that she would be staying here for a few months.

Hearing this, he nodded. “Let’s go upstairs, Boss and Miss Qin are still waiting for us in the restaurant.”

The two young technicians followed Mason, exchanging glances.

The young man opened his mouth and whispered to Mason, “Department Head, the internal procedures of our building haven’t been completed yet. The procedures on the fourth floor have already been withdrawn. Why are we going there now?”

Only a few senior managers knew that Qin Ran wanted to do IT stuff on the fourth floor.

Mason explained the situation to them in a low voice.

“Miss Qin wants to do IT?” The young man scratched his head. “But shouldn’t she call more people for this kind of thing? Two of us aren’t enough... Furthermore, what can we even do there?” There were usually at least ten people in a team...

Mason’s words weren’t convincing at all.

“We might have to teach Miss Qin some stuff later on...” Mason carefully ordered.

The group of four people was already on the elevator. Huo’er pressed the fourth-floor button directly.

The fourth floor needed a separate elevator and didn’t stop in the middle, so it arrived there very fast.

Huo’er got off the elevator first, while Mason and the two young men followed closely behind him. “We’ll soon see Boss and Miss Qin. Pay close attention.”

The two young men nodded frantically, indicating that they would perform well.

Cheng Mu had just arrived in the restaurant. He bit on a piece of bread while checking his phone for Lin Siran’s reply.

Qin Ran had finished her meal and was leaning on her chair while drinking milk from a straw.

Cheng Juan sat beside her, talking seriously to her.

Huo’er and Mason stopped five steps away from the table and bowed very respectfully. “Boss, Miss Qin. Mason and the technicians have arrived.”

They had already seen Mason yesterday but didn’t know the two technicians.

The two young men introduced themselves.

Glancing at them, Cheng Juan nodded and then turned to Qin Ran. “Will these two do?”

Shi Liming would reach today, but neither he nor Cheng Mu knew anything about IT.

That was why Cheng Juan wanted to find two professionals for her.

Putting down her glass of milk, Qin Ran glanced at them with a finger on her chin and nodded. “Two is enough.”

Mason finally sighed in relief after receiving Qin Ran’s approval. “Miss Qin, are the computers on the fourth floor alright?”

Qin Ran shook her head. “The drive isn’t enough, and the calculation speed isn’t up to my requirements either.”

Actually, the computer model in the aircraft parking ground was already the world’s leading computer. After all, they had to calculate huge amounts of data every day.

The two young technicians exchanged glances and began to worry. Did Miss Qin understand computers?

If these computers couldn’t match up to her requirements, what computer would she take a fancy to?

Mason said in a timely manner, “Miss Qin, there’s an S5 computer in the office downstairs. We already prepared it last night. If you need it, you can come anytime.”

The S5 computer’s database was huge, and its calculation speed was the fastest amongst the computers in the existing field.

Qin Ran shook her head. “There’s no need.”

Mason froze. “Then what can I do?” The other computers couldn’t meet her requirements.

She was about to say something when her phone rang. She picked up directly. “It’s me. You’re here? Okay, I’ll go downstairs.”

Cheng Juan stood up and glanced at her. “They’re here?”

“Yeah.” Qin Ran reached out to grab her coat and put it on herself.

Cheng Juan waited for her before walking over to the elevator. “Let’s go downstairs, then.”

Cheng Mu immediately followed behind them with a piece of bread.

Huo’er, Mason, and the two young technicians couldn’t understand this swift movement. They exchanged glances and followed them downstairs.

Five minutes later, they followed them to the gate.

The two young men couldn’t help but lower their voices and ask in confusion, “Department Head, why are Boss and Miss Qin here?”

As soon as they finished speaking, a minivan stopped in front of them.
