Chapter 565 - I’m Not Trying to Scare You, But It Might Be Matthew

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qin Ran had many friends in the capital.

Currently, they were discussing the Research Institute. Initially, Cheng Juan was talking about the Research Institute with Cheng Wenru, but after hearing the servant’s words, he thought about it and felt that this person was likely to be from the Xu family.

“Butler Xu?” Cheng Juan looked at the door and also stood up.

The people in the manor were all Cheng Juan’s confidants and were naturally familiar with the people from powerful families.

Hearing this, he shook his head. “No. It seems to be a foreigner.”

“Foreigner?” Cheng Juan paused. He thought about Qin Ran’s affairs and sighed slightly.

In addition to thinking about Qin Ran’s handover ceremony tomorrow, Cheng Wenru was also thinking about Cheng Tu’s problems in Continent F.

She wanted to ask what exactly Cheng Tu was doing, but it didn’t seem like a good time to ask this question, and she only looked at the door. “If it’s not Butler Xu and the others, who else will look for us at this time?”

“I don’t know.” Cheng Juan picked up his teacup and said to the servant, “Ask him to come in.”

Cheng Juan was also unsure of who it was.

The servant nodded and quickly went out.

Cheng Mu stood behind Cheng Tu. When he heard what the servant told Cheng Juan, he was taken aback.

He was deep in thought.

Cheng Shui, who was beside him, glanced at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I was thinking... Could that be the person from the barbecue? Besides, Cheng Tu just looked for him recently.” Cheng Mu made a brave statement. “I’m not trying to scare you, but could it be Matthew?”

Cheng Mu had never seen any normal person look for Qin Ran.

Cheng Shui had obviously heard of Qin Ran’s influence, but after hearing what Cheng Mu said, he didn’t respond immediately and thought about that possibility.

After all, in Continent M, Matthew captured those people and respectfully sent her back.

If it was really Matthew, it would be terrifying.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Cheng Tu glanced at them from the sofa. “Cheng Mu, what’s going on? Calculate the probability of the two of them returning to Beijing in these two days. Why are they looking for Miss Qin?”

Cheng Mu glanced at him. He didn’t respond and just said, “I will ask Miss Qin to come down.”

Cheng Wenru lowered her head, took a sip of her tea, and listened to the few of them talk about Matthew casually. She recognized Matthew’s name and couldn’t help but ask, “The one at the barbecue was...”

“The boss of a mercenary group who robbed your goods. In the past, he helped Miss Qin roast meat at a barbecue once,” Cheng Shui calmly explained. “Actually, Cheng Tu could contact him so quickly this time because Miss Qin knew his contact details.”

Cheng Wenru was speechless.

Once Cheng Shui said that she couldn’t help but put Qin Ran on a pedestal, and she even felt that Cheng Mu’s conjecture was right.

Could it really be that legendary boss of the mercenary group...

Thinking about it, Cheng Wenru put down her teacup and looked at the door.

“I will get a glass of water.” Cheng Tu couldn’t be bothered to talk to the two of them. The mercenary leader was handling big business in Continent F, he couldn’t be here now. He took his glass and went to the kitchen to get some water.

At the same time, outside.

The servant brought a large and tall man inside.

The man had an exotic appearance. His eyes were slightly blue, and his facial features were extremely distinct.

His eyebrows were thick and unique. Most people wouldn’t forget his looks.

He held a delicate black box with gold rims in his hand.

His face was nonchalant, but his eyes were rather intimidating.

“Hello, I’m looking for Qin Ran. Is she here?” Giant Crocodile glanced around but didn’t see Qin Ran.

Cheng Juan looked at Giant Crocodile and paused for a while before saying, “She’s still upstairs. She’ll be down soon.”

After hearing Cheng Mu said that someone was looking for her, Qin Ran was a little surprised.

She didn’t think that anyone would look for her at this time.

Could it be Old Master Yang?

Qin Ran put on her jacket, turned off her computer, and went downstairs with him.

Cheng Mu quickly followed behind her.

Downstairs, Qin Ran immediately saw that Giant Crocodile was about to climb up the stairs.

She was speechless.

“Why did you come over?” Qin Ran pressed her temple.

“To ask about some things and to congratulate you,” Giant Crocodile said coldly and concisely.

Qin Ran looked around and introduced him to Cheng Juan and the others. “This is Lou Yue, my internet friend.”

Cheng Wenru looked at Giant Crocodile and remembered that she had met him for a brief moment at the bad coffee shop in Continent M. Her memory was good, and she immediately remembered who he was because of his uniqueness. She smiled gently. “So, you’re Ran Ran’s friend!”

Giant Crocodile didn’t remember Cheng Wenru, but since she addressed Qin Ran informally, he politely nodded at her.

Cheng Juan stretched his hand out to Giant Crocodile, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said slowly, “I’ve heard much about you, Mr. Lou.”

Giant Crocodile glanced at him. “Same here.”

There seemed to be some tension.

Qin Ran had a slight headache as she looked at Giant Crocodile. Since he looked for her, it was definitely not about serious business. “I’ll take him upstairs to talk.”

Cheng Juan nodded. “Go ahead.”

The two of them went upstairs together.

Cheng Mu, who came downstairs with Qin Ran, glanced at Giant Crocodile several times.

He didn’t seem like the mercenary boss he was familiar with, nor was he Matthew who sent them back to the capital.

Cheng Mu was slightly disappointed.

It turned out to be different from what he expected.

He really looked like her internet friend.

He sighed slightly.

At the same time, Cheng Tu walked out of the kitchen with a glass of water in his hand. He only saw a figure on the stairs that seemed familiar.

However, he didn’t think too much about it and only glanced at Cheng Mu with a slight smile. “So, is it the mercenary boss? Or is it Matthew?”
