Chapter 541: The Truth Emerges

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Second Uncle Xu didn’t know, but Butler Xu was very clear.

Xu Shiying wanted Qin Ran to return to the Research Institute not only because of her talent but because she was Ning’er’s child.

Since Qin Ran came back from Continent M, Butler Xu already knew about Xu Shiying’s plan.

“Miss Qin is like both her grandfathers.” Butler Xu shook his head. “You can tell when she gave the Continent M shares to the Xu family. Furthermore, can’t you tell that Ouyang Wei is trying to attack her?”

Since Xu Shiying protected Qin Ran, the Qin family would protect Qin Ran as well.

Now, the Xu family had some presence in Continent M. The previous time it went to Continent M, it required elite protection, but now, the Xu family did not have any worries.

“But...” Second Uncle Xu looked at Butler Xu, and his voice quivered. He naturally felt that Ouyang Wei was going against Qin Ran.

No one knew who was backing the Ouyang family in Beijing.

However, as long Ouyang Wei had control over 129, Second Uncle Xu did not dare slacken.

Judging from Qin Ran’s performance in Continent M, Second Uncle Xu knew that Qin Ran was not simple, that was why he thought of asking for her opinion.

However, after listening to Butler Xu’s words, he couldn’t refute.

“Recently, the capital hasn’t been peaceful. I’m afraid the four major families in Beijing will really...” Butler Xu’s heartbeat surged. “Has the Young Master set off?”

Second Uncle Xu’s eyes were red. “He’s already on the plane!”

“Ok.” Butler Xu nodded and placed his hands behind him. “Elder Xu has already contacted the Research Institute in Continent M and Master Wei. Tomorrow, I will find an opportunity for Miss Qin to go to Continent M. With the Research Institute and the Mas family, even those backing Ouyang Wei won’t dare to touch Miss Qin. Unfortunately...”

The road Principal Xu paved for Qin Ran was difficult now after it was revealed that Cheng Juan wasn’t a descendant of the Cheng family.

...

At this time, Qin Ran was heading back with Cheng Shui.

She didn’t stay long at the Xu family’s house, so Cheng Tu hadn’t arrived when she got back.

Qin Ran took out the research from her backpack and handed it to Cheng Juan.

“What?” Cheng Juan put down the ancient text in his hands and took the research from her.

“The information that links my grandfather to the Research Institute.” Qin Ran took a cup of tea from Cheng Mu and squinted. “It has been giving me a strange feeling.”

The areas of research were all recorded on the cover page.

Cheng Juan heard Qin Ran mention her grandfather before. In reality, when Chen Shulan died in Yun Cheng and Fang Zhenbo was found in Yun Cheng, Cheng Juan already guessed Chen Shulan’s identity.

At this time, he wasn’t that curious.

He opened the Research Institute’s chronicle and read it page by page.

His reading speed wasn’t slower than Qin Ran’s.

He easily sped through it.

The chronicle mainly recorded the news of Ning’er, the founder of the Research Institute.

It was stated very clearly.

The discovery of a crater in the country immediately aroused the curiosity of people from all over the world. The records were also written by bystanders. No one knew how the crater was discovered, but Ning’er managed to extract materials from it.

At that time, Ning’er was a top-tier researcher at Beijing University, and the reactor he produced surpassed the world’s standards at that time.

His research wasn’t only useful for weapons but also various advanced equipment.

When Cheng Juan saw the last bolded sentence, he couldn’t help but pause and sit up straight.

“What’s wrong?” Qin Ran took a sip of tea and noticed that he was in a daze.

“Your grandfather...” Cheng Juan pursed his lips and pointed at the last sentence. He asked her, “Three-dimensional pupil verification was made by your grandfather?”

Choke—

Cheng Shui successfully choked himself.

He also raised his head and looked at Qin Ran in shock.

Qin Ran did not speak immediately. After a long while, she smiled gently with unspeakable pride. “Yes.”

At that time when she went to the aircraft parking ground with Cheng Juan in Continent M and saw the black mechanical door, Qin Ran already recognized that it was her grandfather’s work.

Gu Xichi also had a similar door in his base.

After hearing that, Cheng Juan nodded. He wasn’t too surprised.

After some time, he sighed and closed the research. Finally, he said, “There are some clues. Your grandfather was probably forced to research heavy-duty weapons. Considering his ability at that time, if he wasn’t forced, he wouldn’t...”

He wouldn’t have died so unexpectedly.

Qin Ran’s grandfather’s achievements in the physics industry at least allowed him to leave something behind in the physical world.

“The strange thing is...” Cheng Juan tapped his fingers on the table. “It’s stated that Old Master Qin looked for your grandfather.”

“The Qin family?” Qin Ran frantically looked up at him.

The confusion in her mind was finally starting to clear up.

Chen Juan also found it strange at the start. Why was Qin Hanqiu coincidentally at Ninghai Town and was Chen Shulan’s son-in-law?

“The decline of the Qin family back then wasn’t simple. It’s probably related to your grandparents.” Cheng Juan finally thought about this key point with extremely cold eyes.

There was one point that he didn’t mention. The bombing in Ninghai Town a few years ago was certainly not simple.

Qin Ran held her cup and sat silently.

She wasn’t surprised at Chen Juan’s speculation at all. When Chen Shulan allowed Ning Qing to marry Qin Hanqiu, she didn’t seem to mind that Qin Hanqiu moved bricks in a construction site. She felt that this was strange.

Although Chen Shulan was dead, Cheng Juan managed to piece the truth together, clearing things for Qin Ran.

Old Master Qin protected her grandfather...

Chen Shulan also protected Qin Hanqiu...

She also agreed to Ning Qing and Qin Hanqiu’s divorce in order to prevent Qin Hanqiu from getting involved.

Thinking about this, Qin Ran subconsciously thought about Principal Xu.

Why did Principal Xu wait for her in Yun Cheng for 3 years, then?
