Chapter 165: Ning Qing Thinks This World Is a Fantasy!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In Ning Qing’s eyes, Chen Shulan had always been an ordinary old woman.

This was the first time she saw her exuding such an attitude and aura.

Ning Qing froze for a moment before reacting to what she just said.

She almost lost her composure and stared at Chen Shulan. “How could it be? Mom, are you crazy? Don’t make such a joke with me! How could Qin Ran possibly write that?! She hadn’t even passed a single exam!”

“Aren’t you aware of what level Qin Yu is at?” Chen Shulan glanced at Ning Qing and sat up, sighing softly. “With her pattern, could she write such a tune?”

Her expression was light and almost no emotion could be seen.

From the beginning when Qin Yu asked her questions about Qin Ran’s music scores to when Master Wei personally called her, Chen Shulan had expected this in her heart.

Thus, she had asked Ning Qing for Qin Yu’s performance video.

Like Master Wei, she wasn’t particularly impressed by Qin Ran’s other tracks, but the track she had played at her birthday party had been extremely memorable.

Although Qin Yu had changed it a little and it wasn’t as good as Qin Ran’s original song, it still left a deep impression.

It was obvious how deep of an impression the original track gave people to be able to let Dai Ran ignore Qin Yu’s skills and make an exception to choose her as an apprentice.

“Mom, I know you don’t like Yu’er, but you can’t be so biased. How do you know Yu’er can’t write it?!” Ning Qing stood up, clenched her fists, and pursed her lips.

“Mom, I didn’t come back to quarrel with you.” Ning Qing was also vexed. She felt very confused because she clearly remembered what Master Wei had said before.

But she didn’t dare and didn’t want to think deeper.

Instead of arguing further with Chen Shulan, she went directly to the doctor to ask about Chen Shulan’s latest situation.

After getting the results, she returned to the Lin family’s house.

She didn’t see Chen Shulan’s disappointed expression as she turned around.

With a click, the door closed.

Chen Shulan reached out and picked up her phone to call Master Wei.

She looked at the call page, her turbid eyes extremely deep.

When she first came to Yun Cheng, she only wanted Qin Ran to stay at the Lin family’s house. She didn’t want Qin Ran to be alone after she died.

But despite not seeing her for so long, Ning Qing was still unreliable.

Her call got through after two rings.

“Master Wei.” Chen Shulan stood up with her hand on the bed and walked to the window of the ward to look downstairs. “Although it’s a little presumptuous, I would still like for you to come to Yun Cheng. Because of some issues, I can’t enter Beijing, so I want to see Ran Ran worship you as a teacher personally.”

Chen Shulan already knew Qin Ran’s decision from when she returned last time.

She also knew that if it weren’t for her, Qin Ran would already have gone to Beijing.

And she wouldn’t be confined to a small town like Ninghai like herself.

Three years ago, Master Wei had heard about the Xu family. For Qin Ran, he had stayed for half a year in Ninghai Town.

If it wasn’t because he had matters to attend to in Beijing, he might really have continued staying there.

After more than ten years, Chen Shulan had enough knowledge of Master Wei’s character.

In Beijing, Master Wei froze after receiving Chen Shulan’s call.

“Master Wei?” Someone called him beside him.

Master Wei came back to his senses and got up from his chair. He turned and directly instructed the person beside him. “Go buy me a ticket to Yun Cheng, the soonest one.”

He already knew Chen Shulan was sick.

But today, Chen Shulan’s words gave him an ominous hunch.

He felt like... Chen Shulan was entrusting her granddaughter to him.

Master Wei squeezed the phone in his hand and instructed while walking out. “Pack my luggage and set off as soon as possible.”

The Lin family’s house.

When Ning Qing came back, she realized many of the Lin family members were there.

Lin Qi, Old Master Lin, and the other Lin family members.

Once inside, everyone stood up and Old Master Lin also welcomed her warmly. “Are you used to staying in Beijing? How is Yu’er getting along with Teacher Dai?”

The Lin family’s attitude towards Ning Qing had changed the moment Lin Wan wanted to bring Qin Yu to Beijing.

Now that Qin Yu was successful in paying apprenticeship, and to Dai Ran also, her status had jumped up, and Ning Qing was also considered part of the Beijing circle.

Her status in the Lin family shot up within a month.

The Lin family had initially looked down on her previous identity as a second wife of a rural background, and Ning Qing had basically been a transparent person in their family.

But now, even Old Master Lin was smiling at her.

After spending 12 years in the Lin family, Ning Qing finally felt like she could hold her own ground.

“Everything is fine.” Ning Qing smiled.

Old Master Lin nodded, paused, then said again,” As for your eldest daughter... she might have animosity with our family because of Xinran.”

Old Master Lin wasn’t prepared to talk to Ning Qing about this matter before.

Because he felt it wasn’t necessary.

But now, it was different.

Ning Qing nodded. She could tell ever since the recent attitude of the Lin family that they had made a choice between Qin Ran and Qin Yu.

“She only worshiped Teacher Dai, it would have been nice to worship Master Wei,” Ning Qing suddenly said as she ate halfway.

Qin Yu was right. Beijing was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, and the Shen family had only just touched one side of the Beijing circle.

Even the Meng family, whom she had always been in awe of, was just a nobody in Beijing.

But the Dai family was different. Dai Ran was of a prestigious family, and his ancestor had also been a court musician. He was well-known in the capital, and the Shen family had told her about their status in Beijing.

Beijing was divided into three, six, and nine.

Ordinary people were nine.

The Shen and Meng families were barely counted as six.

But the real Beijing circle was three.

To divide this into three pyramids, the Dai family could be on the bottom of the top pyramid.

However, the Wei family was able to go to the second tier of the top pyramid. Furthermore, Master Wei’s connections could reach the top tier of the first pyramid.

Old Master Shen hadn’t mentioned who was above the Wei family, but Ning Qing understood from Old Master Shen’s sigh that the Wei family was amongst the top tier of the first pyramid in Beijing.

Qin Yu had become Dai Ran’s apprentice and had already managed to change things dramatically.

Even Ning Qing’s position in the Lin family had changed.

Ning Qing didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if Qin Yu had been accepted by Master Wei...

**

In a hotel in Yun Cheng.

Qin Ran sat on the hotel sofa. She didn’t have class today, so she only brought her bag and was writing musical scores while laying down on a table by the window.

Gu Xichi fiddled with an instrument and compared the test results from time to time.

“It would be nice if we were in my laboratory.” Gu Xichi was sitting cross-legged on the floor and holding the newly printed data in his hand. “The small instrument I brought is too slow.”

Qin Ran lowered her head and wrote her music score calmly.

She wrote two notes and then erased them again.

She did this repeatedly before finally entering the right state.

Her low-hanging eyebrows were cold and dry and she suddenly turned around after remembering something. “How much should I pay Cheng Juan?”

She was talking about Cheng Juan’s operation on Ning Wei.

“According to the rules...” Gu Xichi put his hand on the ground and glanced sideways at Qin Ran while touching his chin. “Two million yuan.”

Cheng Juan’s hands of God weren’t a joke.

“Okay.” Qin Ran nodded and continued to write her musical notes.

The communicator that Gu Xichi had put aside in the medicine box rang and he directly picked up without avoiding Qin Ran. “Sir Matthew.”

He was still looking at the results page on the machine.

Matthew said a few words and Gu Xichi’s eyebrows flicked as if he had heard something unbelievable. “Is Jiang Dongye crazy?!”

He raised his hand and threw the communicator to the side.

Hearing Jiang Dongye, Qin Ran looked up. “What’s wrong?”

“That dog Jiang Dongye forcibly blocked the major gates of Yun Cheng and even found the hacker alliance to get hold of me. Five million yuan, am I so valuable?!” Gu Xichi cursed with his delicate face.

Qin Ran thought something had happened and looked away after hearing this.

She continued writing and said in a calm voice, “Relax, even if there’s 500 hacker alliances, it’s still useless.”

“You say this as if you’re Q,” Gu Xichi said his catchphrase and sat back down on the floor. The machine finished printing a checklist.

Gu Xichi pulled it out.

He glanced casually at the test results on top and suddenly paused.

Making sure he was discrete, he mixed this piece of paper in another pile.

Qin Ran finally perfected the details of Yan Xi’s musical score.

She took another picture and sent it to him.

It was already five o’clock.

She put the pen and book in her backpack and reached out to throw the waste papers into the trash.

Then, she walked over to Gu Xichi, squatted down, and asked, “No results yet?”

“Ask this thing.” Gu Xichi leaned back on the table behind him and kicked the instrument with his leg before saying vaguely, “I will have to change it sooner or later.”

Qin Ran flipped through the pile of paper.

Most of the results here were quite professional, so she didn’t read it and just went to the hospital.

Ning Wei and Chen Shulan were in the hospital, so she was worried that Mu Nan was there by himself.

Gu Xichi took the peaked hat and sent Qin Ran to the elevator before returning to his room.

He sat on the ground and pulled out the piece of paper from just now.

Then, he laid down on his bed and muttered, “What the hell... what caused such big radiation?”

Was it an ore?

A chemical element?

A microorganism?

Finally, Gu Xichi covered his face with the piece of paper and sighed weakly after a long while.

**

In the hospital, Qin Ran went to see Ning Wei first.

She didn’t enter and just watched through the window as Mu Nan served her a meal.

Ning Wei’s mental state was okay, and because of Gu Xichi’s assurance, Qin Ran wasn’t too worried about her.

After a few minutes, Qin Ran left and went upstairs to see Chen Shulan.

Ning Qing had also come over after dinner.

“Why are you here now?” Ning Qing had also just arrived and was serving Chen Shulan soup.

She saw Qin Ran and couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you know the situation with your grandma?”

Qin Ran dragged a chair and sat down, then looked at Chen Shulan with her arm resting on the armrest. She was irritable, but she still responded indifferently, “Oh.”

This made Ning Qing speechless.

Chen Shulan had always said that Qin Ran was sensible and wouldn’t cause trouble to her. Ning Qing simply wanted to laugh at this. Since young, how much trouble had Qin Ran caused? It wasn’t that she matured earlier than others, it was just that her personality was flawed!

She was still indifferent even though Chen Shulan was in this state.

Ning Qing thought profoundly that Qin Ran had been different from Qin Yu since young. Qin Yu was very affectionate, but Qin Ran wasn’t. When she divorced Qin Hanqiu, Qin Yu had cried terribly, but Qin Ran had just stood coldly and silently at the side.

Thus, Qin Hanqiu had competed with her over Qin Yu’s custody.

And the most important point was that Qin Ran was too narrow-minded. She had failed to grasp so many opportunities that had been given to her.

In the beginning, Ning Qing would still remind Qin Ran, nag her, and think about her.

But since she didn’t appreciate it, her passion disappeared completely and she now focused on Qin Yu.

Chen Shulan said she was biased, but why couldn’t she see that this was all her own fault?

Ning Qing pursed her lips and made a decision in her heart.

Chen Shulan fell asleep and Qin Ran watched her with a pair of dark, clear, and shallow eyes.

Ning Qing picked up her bag and lowered her voice. “Come out with me.”

Qin Ran felt like she and Ning Qing didn’t have anything to say, but in order not to wake Chen Shulan, she frowned and followed her.

**

In the corridor at the elevator entrance.

“I’ll be going back to Beijing two days later to look after your sister.” Ning Qing looked at Qin Ran and took out a card. “There’s 100,000 yuan inside, it’s enough to last you from high school to university. If you lack money in the future, I will transfer it to this card. This is considered fulfilling my duty.”

She did this to set aside her relationship and also because Chen Shulan had mentioned the music score.

Qin Ran looked down at the bank card and laughed loudly.

“What are you laughing at?”

Qin Ran leaned back, didn’t take the card, and said with cold eyes, “No need, Ms. Ning. I won’t find you in the future. I hope you won’t find me either. Goodbye.”

She nodded slightly at Ning Qing.

Her eyes were so terribly calm and rid of any emotion.

She turned and walked into Chen Shulan’s ward.

Ning Qing was stunned, not expect this reaction from Qin Ran.

Ding—

The elevator door opened.

An old and majestic face was revealed.

Ning Qing subconsciously looked back and saw Master Wei’s face. She couldn’t help but feel like she was in a fantasy world. Master Wei was in Yun Cheng?!

“Wei... Wei...”

Master Wei didn’t notice her and just stepped out of the elevator. Seeing Qin Ran’s back, he immediately raised his hand and called out naturally, “Ran Ran.”
