Chapter 128 - Lu Zhaoying About to Go Crazy, Butler Cheng

Cheng Juan looked up when he heard his voice and asked in an undulated voice, “Do you know him?”

The rain and mist were very heavy and seemed to form a veil around Qin Ran.

Lu Zhaoying nodded, then shook his head again. He opened the door and felt like his brain was going to explode. “I don’t know, but he looks very similar to Yang Fei.”

Lu Zhaoying got out of the car and trotted to the gate.

Yang Fei?

Cheng Juan had never heard of this name before, so he just turned towards them. He put his hand on the window and knocked on it distractedly, his whole body leaning on the door and wrinkling his black shirt.

It wasn’t until the tall figure left that Cheng Juan looked away expressionlessly.

At the hospital gate.

When Lu Zhaoying trotted all the way to Qin Ran’s side, the tall boy with the cap beside Qin Ran had already walked into the rain.

Once closer, the face under the cap became clearer.

Yang Fei’s appearance was very unique, and he was also a popular star in the entertainment industry.

Lu Zhaoying was sure that the person wearing the peaked cap was the Sun God.

Instantly, images of the Sun God’s famous battles flashed across his mind. He had emerged from Team OST three years ago.

Over the past three years, OST had dominated various seasons that made the world crazy. His personal ability and powerful talent had saved the entire team several times.

It could be said that countless professional-level players and competitors all believed in Sun God.

It was worth staying in the arena for a lifetime to play a battle against Sun God.

“Qin Ran, do you know Yang Fei?!” Lu Zhaoying couldn’t catch up with him and stared at Qin Ran, stunned and about to go crazy.

Qin Ran seemed to be deep in thought and only reacted at this moment. She turned her head slowly and asked, “Who?”

She was frowning and seemed quite surprised.

“Yang Fei, the Sun God! The one in Team OST!” Lu Zhaoying said anxiously. If Cheng Juan wasn’t sitting in the car not far away, he would have started shaking Qin Ran’s shoulders. “Don’t you even know Yang Fei?!”

Qin Ran responded, then raised her head again, pointed in the direction of Yang Fei, and asked in a calm voice, “The guy who just asked the way? He’s the Sun God you’re talking about?”

Fine.

Lu Zhaoying stared at Qin Ran in amazement. Her clothes were a little wet and her eyebrows were raised. Her expression was as lazy as usual and even a little unbridled.

Her eyes were dark and expressionless.

Lu Zhaoying completely admitted defeat.

He was only now beginning to feel like Qin Ran really wasn’t a fan of Yang Fei nor of Team OST, and that she didn’t even know Yang Fei.

Otherwise, how could she be so calm?

“Ask the way? You’re so lucky, why didn’t he come and ask me?” Lu Zhaoying murmured, then turned back and stared at Yang Fei’s back for a long while before he turned to Qin Ran again. “Let’s go, Master Juan is also in the car.”

Qin Ran didn’t bring an umbrella and had wanted to call a cab, so Lu Zhaoying had come at the right timing.

**

The two of them trotted into the car, wet.

Lu Zhaoying turned the temperature up higher.

Cheng Juan took out a dark blanket from the back, handed it to Qin Ran, and asked, “How’s your grandma?”

Qin Ran put on the blanket and the precious fur was soaked with water.

It was useless now.

In the rearview mirror, Lu Zhaoying saw this and looked away expressionlessly.

One dared to give it, and the other dared to use it.

“She’s neither good nor bad, but I don’t know how long she can hold on for.” Qin Ran leaned back, but the chill on her body seemed to be drilling into her bones, so she leaned her head and looked out the window.

The car drove directly.

Halfway through, Qin Ran realized that the car wasn’t driving in the direction of the school.

Twenty minutes later.

The car parked in front of a villa.

The terrain was very good and it was in the center of Yun Cheng. Perhaps it was because of the rain, but the surroundings were quiet, and a small garden also came with the villa.

As soon as the car stopped, the electronic gate of the villa opened on its own.

An old man in a gray robe came out holding two black silk umbrellas.

He handed the black silk umbrella that wasn’t opened to Lu Zhaoying and then held the umbrella for Cheng Juan as he got off the rear door.

But before he moved, Lu Zhaoying handed the black umbrella in his hand to Cheng Juan.

Cheng Juan reached out and walked to the other side of the door. His eyebrows drooped and the rain around him fluctuated into a fog as he stopped by the car.

Soon, the door on the other side was opened and a girl wrapped in a dark blanket came out.

Because she had her back turned to the old man, her features weren’t clear and he could only see her extraordinary and cold profile as she bowed her head and exited the rear door.

The old man held the umbrella and raised his eyebrow slightly.

“Butler Cheng, let’s go in first.” Lu Zhaoying touched his arm. “It’s so cold, I have to take a hot bath first.”

Cheng Juan and Qin Ran had already walked forward.

“Take a shower first, or it’s easy to catch a cold.” Cheng Juan took her directly to a room upstairs. “Butler Cheng should have prepared a bathrobe and the other stuff. They are all new, and I’ll bring up a new change of clothes later.”

Qin Ran nodded and glanced at the furnishings of the room. The color scheme was mainly white and was in the bucolic style.

It had been raining so much that her clothes were soaked. She threw the blanket on the shelf and walked into the bathroom.

The phone in her pocket rang again. It was Qian Dui.

Qin Ran still wore her clothes, so she picked up directly. She turned on the hands-free function, put the phone on the dressing table, adjusted the water temperature, and asked casually, “Qian Dui?”

“Miss Qin, there are some things here that may require your confirmation.” Qian Dui’s car stopped in front of the gate at First Middle School and he leaned on the driver’s seat. “I’m outside First Middle School.”

“I’m not at First Middle School.” Qin Ran tied her hair up. “I’m at a villa in the city.”

When Qian Dui had visited Lu Zhaoying to discuss some matters, he had been to Cheng Juan’s house before, so he knew where Qin Ran was referring to. “Okay, I’ll go over.”

**

Downstairs.

“Butler Cheng, is there something coming from Beijing?” Cheng Juan came down the stairs at a slow pace.

Butler Cheng came out of the kitchen and nodded slightly. “There was a bag of clothes in the warehouse in the morning. I’ll go get it.”

“No need.” Cheng Juan turned upstairs.

He was frowning slightly.

Butler Cheng was stunned.

“Butler, don’t be alarmed.” Lu Zhaoying finished his shower quickly and came out in five minutes. He put on a bathrobe carelessly and said, “Your Master Cheng is very lenient towards our Qin Ran.”

Butler Cheng smiled and asked, “This Miss Qin is your relative?”

“No, she’s a high school student in Yun Cheng. She only recently transferred to First Middle School.” Lu Zhaoying poured himself a glass of water. “That’s the town that Jiang Dongye was sent to before.”

Butler Cheng had naturally heard of the Jiang family being sent away, so he was silent for a moment. “That’s so far.”

“It’s not just that,” Lu Zhaoying said slowly. He thought about it and then complained, “You know, she doesn’t even know who Sun God is. Just how difficult has her life been?”

“You want to bring her to Beijing next time?” Butler Cheng asked softly.

Lu Zhaoying chuckled. “If not?”

Butler Cheng told the chef the menu for tonight before looking down and pondering for a moment.

It was troublesome.

This girl had no background and he would have to spend the effort to get her there. She was already in high school, so he had to take the opportunity to teach her something before going to Beijing.

There were many people in Beijing, and if she said or did something wrong, there would be a particularly great impact.

It was a place packed with wolves, especially if she stood with the Cheng family.

After thinking for a while, Butler Cheng lowered his head, took out a small book in his pocket, and began to record something down.

**

Upstairs.

Cheng Juan took a box and knocked on Qin Ran’s door again, his voice low and slow. “Are you done? I’ll put your clothes outside...”

There were no female maids nor people of a similar age in his house, so he had brought the clothes over personally.

Cheng Juan had wanted to put the clothes outside for her to retrieve later.

But when he was about to put it down.

The door opened from the inside.

Qin Ran had a bathrobe wrapped loosely around her, and the straps were also loose, making her appear even thinner.

The bathrobe was probably a man’s, as it was a little bigger on her body. Her silk-like neckline was revealed and was strikingly white.

She took a towel and wiped her hair.

Her movement showed a gorgeous tattoo on her shoulder faintly.

Cheng Juan put down the box and politely took a step back. “The clothes are inside.”

“Okay, thank you.” Qin Ran put down her towel and picked the box up.

Cheng Juan looked away quietly.

Qin Ran closed the door before opening the box.

There were many clothes inside from this season and were all her size.

She randomly took a black sweater out and put it on.

**

Outside, Lu Zhaoying wore a bathrobe and held a cup of tea as he walked upstairs slowly. When he saw the scene in the room from afar, he leaned against the railing of the flower-shaped staircase and laughed. “Master Juan, you can’t do this.”

Lu Zhaoying snorted at how he had retreated almost sentimentally and courteously. “Master Cheng, do you want me to teach you a few tricks?”

Cheng Juan remained expressionless and took a few steps forward.

He suddenly thought of something, paused, frowned, and seemed quite displeased. “Go into your room and change your clothes.”

Change clothes, what kind?

Lu Zhaoying looked down at his bathrobe. This was what he usually wore in the villa.

“He really pays particular attention.” Lu Zhaoying pulled up his bathrobe, thought about it, and went to his room to change into something else.

**

Qin Ran changed her clothes and looked at her phone.

Qian Dui’s message showed that he was arriving soon.

After she finished drying her hair, she walked to the lobby on the first floor. Only then did Butler Cheng see the girl’s appearance.

He had seen a lot of famous ladies from rich families, and they had all been excellent in terms of appearance and temperament.

But even so, Butler Cheng was amazed when he saw Qin Ran.

She was different from all the ladies he had seen.

Her eyebrows were lowered and her exquisiteness was still obvious. She looked so unbridled that he didn’t dare to look her straight in the eye, and her brow bone held a kind of casualness that young people had and couldn’t be hidden. This was a young lady who couldn’t be ignored in any situation.

Butler Cheng thought it was normal to be attracted to such a girl.

“Miss Qin, is there anything you want to drink?” Butler Cheng’s voice was gentle, but his attitude was cautious and serious.

Qin Ran was sitting on the sofa and waiting for Qian Dui’s arrival. “No need, thank you.”

Butler Cheng poured her a cup of tea that Cheng Juan often drank and asked, “Who else is there in your family?”

“My grandma.” Qin Ran looked at her phone. Chang Ning just sent her a message asking if she had considered it well.

Butler Cheng asked her a few questions in succession.

His image of Qin Ran was built up in the process.

They didn’t talk for long before Qian Dui and Cheng Mu entered.

“Butler Cheng.” Cheng Mu greeted him respectfully.

Butler Cheng nodded and stood up, his attitude still respectful. “Mr. Qian, I’ll find Young Master Lu, please wait a moment.”

Qian Dui had been here before, so Butler Cheng knew that he was the captain of the criminal investigation team. Hao Dui, Lu Zhaoying, and Cheng Mu all respected Qian Dui.

Butler Cheng went upstairs to find Lu Zhaoying.

Qian Dui didn’t pay attention and brought a computer over to Qin Ran directly. “Look at this.”

Qin Ran turned on the computer and saw an image stuck on the screen.

Cheng Mu and Hao Dui came over.

Butler Cheng brought Lu Zhaoying downstairs. When he saw a group of people around Qin Ran, he asked, “What are they doing?”

“They’re asking Qin Ran to help analyze some data. I guess it’s quite tricky this time around.” Lu Zhaoying frowned.

“Isn’t Miss Qin still a student?” Butler Cheng froze.

“Yeah, but I heard that her grandfather used to do this, so she taught herself computer programming.” Lu Zhaoying kept walking downstairs.

Butler Cheng paused and his pitch rose slightly in surprise. “Self-taught? Why didn’t you let Cheng Huo come to Yun Cheng instead? What if a high school student messes with this matter and does something wrong?”
