Book 1: Maam You Have Been Uncovered

Chapter 106

 It was because she had never mentioned it before, and if she had learned it well, she would have said something.

“Then why didn’t you promise him?” Qiao Sheng laid his hands on the table, took the English book, and covered the side of his face with it. “Actually, what Uncle Lin said does make a lot of sense. It’s much better than you finding a job elsewhere. Uncle Lin has already made some concessions so that you can repair your relationship with the Lin family.”

After a pause, Qiao Sheng continued to say, “Furthermore, what will you do in the future if you reject him? The Lin family is pretty big in Yun Cheng. Don’t you think Uncle Lin will think that you don’t know what’s good for your own good if you do this?”

Qiao Sheng’s concerns and doubts also made sense.

 Qin Ran was now Lin Qi’s stepdaughter, but in reality, she simply couldn’t compare to Qin Yu. Qin Yu had grown up in the Lin family and they were naturally biased towards her.

 With the Lin family’s guidance in Yun Cheng, it was clear that their life would be good, especially people like Qin Ran who had no background.

 Lin Qi’s two proposals had been made from the perspective of Qin Ran, and Qiao Sheng didn’t see any harm in it.

 Qin Ran didn’t know that Qiao Sheng had thought so much. She just reached out to turn her book, glance at Qiao Sheng, and smiled slowly. “Who told you that I would stay in Yun Cheng and rely on the Lin family?”

 Qiao Sheng froze and his heart jumped. He seemed to have noticed something and asked, “Wait, what did you say?”

Qin Ran shook her head and continued reading. “Nothing.”

Qiao Sheng: “… Don’t act like your IQ is higher than mine.”

 Your exam score is less than one-third of mine.

 But of course, he didn’t dare to say this sentence out loud.

 The following day after class.

 Qin Ran and Lin Siran went to the bookstore in the city after school.

 Li Airong had arranged a new exercise book and it would be discussed tomorrow.

 “We have to transfer another bus,” Qin Ran held her phone to her ear and said to Cheng Juan while getting off the bus. “Wait for me for another twenty minutes.”

The two of them had to turn a corner to reach another bus stop.

 While walking in front, Lin Siran suddenly stopped.

 Qin Ran hung up the phone and raised an eyebrow. There was a group of seven or eight strong men in front.

 It was nearly November and wasn’t so hot anymore, so people basically wore coats.

 But these men only wore vests and had large tattoos on their exposed arms and shoulders, making them look very sinister and scary.

They were even holding steel knives and sticks in their hands and looked like gangsters at first glance.

 Lin Siran paused and took a step back involuntarily.

 She felt slightly uneasy as she turned to look at Qin Ran.

 “Our young master wants to see you.” The man in front bit his cigarette and stared at Qin Ran casually. “This chick is even from First Middle School, what a good student.”
