    Yunguang Consortium was low-key.


    Many groups were under Yunguang Consortium, but none of them could be dubbed as thepany.


    Yun Ding Hotel was one of them.


    Everyone in the circle understood Yunguang Consortium’s regtions. No matter who you were, as long as you entered any clubhouse under Yunguang Consortium, everyone was safe and all information was kept confidential.


    This was one of the reasons why the Yunguang Consortium joined the five giants behind the scenes.


    Thus, it was too difficult to request for the monitoring videos of Yun Ding Hotel, and they could only wait to file a case to the police.


    These things were considered unspoken rules.


    This was why the short-haired woman had spoken mockingly after hearing Qin Ran mention the monitoring video.


    Aunt Zhang had already called Lin Qi and concisely exined the situation to him.


    The woman wearing the sunsses was obviously someone of high status, so it was useless to call Ning Qing.


    After hanging up the phone, Aunt Zhang looked impatiently at Qin Hanqiu and the others. “Don’t think that this ce is the same as the other ces. Do you think you can see the surveince video as and when you like? The police areing soon, we’ll just wait until then.”


    Then, she went to negotiate with the short-haired woman.


    Qin Hanqiu lowered his head. He didn’t know why the surveince here could not be seen, but the way Aunt Zhang and the short-haired woman stared at him made him very ufortable.


    “Ran Ran, don’t worry about this matter. Xiao Ling definitely did not take it,” Qin Hanqiu lowered his head and whispered. “He’s not such a child.”


    “Ok,” Qin Ran replied simply and sent a message on her phone.


    “I’ll go upstairs to find a friend first.” Qin Ran tucked her phone into her pocket and was about to go upstairs to find Gu Xichi.


    Qin Hanqiu desperately wanted her to leave, so he nodded quickly.


    Qin Ran turned and went upstairs.


    Qin Ling looked up carefully but turned around immediately when Qin Ran tilted her head over.


    “Wait for me downstairs.” Qin Ran took two steps, turned back, and pointed her finger at Qin Ling. “There are too many people here, I’ll bring him up first.”


    The short-haired woman was focused on Qin Hanqiu and did not stop Qin Ran from taking Qin Ling away.


    The hotel only had one gate, so he would not be able to slip away.


    **


    In Gu Xichi’s room.


    He hung a “Do not disturb” sign outside the door, but Qin Ran simply ignored it.


    She knocked three times, anxious and dry.


    Gu Xichi got up from a pile of papers and opened the door. He didn’t expect to see Qin Ran and a dwarf beside her, so he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Who is this?”


    “My father’s son.” Qin Ran went in directly and squatted among the pile of papers. She reached out and turned over two papers—it was still filled with a bunch of medical terms.


    Gu Xichi nodded and didn’t ask any more questions. Qin Ran knew her limits, so if she had brought someone here, it must be someone trustworthy.


    “Did you discover anything?” Qin Ran asked Qin Ling to sit on the sofa and then picked up Gu Xichi’sputer.


    Gu Xichi was staying in a suite with an exquisitely-decorated living room. There was a floor-to-ceiling window at the side and the overall style of the room was very European.


    Gu Xichi rummaged inside a drawer and handed a rock about the size of a thumb to Qin Ling. “Little brother, y with this.”


    Qin Ling took it and yed with it under the light shining through the floor-to-ceiling window. His eyes were lowered and he didn’t make a single sound.


    “A little.” Gu Xichi opened a bottle of water and leaned against theputer desk. “I don’t know a few things, though. You probably know that your grandma has radiation, right? The important thing is what caused it, but I can’t find it.”


    Gu Xichi pointed to a row of numbers on theputer. “I thought about it, and I want to apologize to you. This matter had nothing to do with your neighbor who repairsputers.”


    He had misunderstood her neighbor.


    Qin Ran leaned on the back of the chair and was toozy to reply.


    She flipped through her phone and pressed on the report that Cheng Juan had sent her.


    “Look at this.” She handed the report to Gu Xichi.


    Gu Xichi closed the file on theputer with one hand and took the phone from Qin Ran’s hand with the other.


    He originally just looked at it casually, but after reading the document, he suddenly sobered.


    “Uranium... Americium...” Gu Xichi held the phone tightly in his hand. “Who gave this to you?”


    “Cheng Juan.”


    Gu Xichi nodded, then took two steps forward and flipped through the machine among the pile of mess. “It should be fine if it was him. I think I’m close to finding out.”


    He took out Chen Shn’s report fromst time and analyzed it again.


    Finally, he looked up at Qin Ran. “There’s noboratory here, so it’s too inconvenient for me. I need to back to Beijing.”


    Gu Xichi had a hot temperament.


    Qin Ran stood up. “When?”


    “Now. I have a flight at seven o’clock.” Gu Xichi nced at his watch and frowned. “That dog is still looking for me, and he even has a picture of me on his phone...”


    “He doesn’t have a picture of you anymore,” Qin Ran said lightly. “Don’t worry, just leave.”


    The phone in her pocket rang at this time—it was Qin Hanqiu.


    He asked Qin Ling to go down.


    Qin Ran thought the police had arrived, so she sent Qin Ling to Qin Hanqiu. “Wait for me, I still have something to do. I’lle down after I’m done.”


    She helped Gu Xichi hide the information.


    Then, she received a call from Qian Dui just as she entered Gu Xichi’s room.


    “You called just in time. Come over and help me deal with someone.” Qin Ran closed the door while talking on the phone and watched as Gu Xichi packed his bags.


    They wanted to catch someone in her hands?


    Impossible.

    Downstairs at the lobby.


    The police were still on the way.


    Lin Qi and Ning Qing arrived first.


    “Bring the rest into their rooms first, or they can stay in the lounge for now too.” Lin Qi pressed his temple and turned to instruct Ning Qing. “How could they all stand around here?”


    He didn’t even look at Qin Hanqiu’s rtives.


    Instead, he negotiated with the shirt-haired woman.


    Everyone in the circle knew that the Lin family were entertaining guests today, so they would really lose their face if the police were toe.


    “I’m Li Qiu, Miss Li Shuangning’s manager.” The short-haired woman saw Lin Qi and finally introduced herself. “Miss Li Shuangning’s ne is the Dream Heart given by a sponsor. Because its mary value is simply toorge, we have no choice but to detain them.”


    The Dream Heart was a new diamond ne.


    It was endorsed by Li Shuangning.


    Lin Qi’s expression turned graver. “I will definitely give Miss Li an ount.”


    “I hope it will be as soon as possible,” the short-haired woman said lightly. “Shuangning was going to wear this ne in Yan Xi’s new music video tomorrow. If you cannot find it, I will have to report it to the police.”


    Lin Qi’s expression turned darker.


    Yan Xi’s reputation was too broad in recent years. People from the age of eighty to the kindergarteners all knew him.


    When he debuted, he did not participate in any variety show and did not hype himself up. Instead, he focused only on his own music peacefully and was still inexplicably able to make himself famous.


    Li Shuangning and her manager waited in the lobby.


    Lin Qi turned back to Ning Qing’s rtives.


    Yun Ding Hotel was a low-key luxurious hotel, so the rtives were all anxious at being in such a ce for the first time.


    “What the hell are you doing?” Ning Qing walked over to Qin Hanqiu with a dark expression. If it were not for Qin Yu personally handling the guest list, Ning Qing simply did not want to see her ex-husband.


    Qin Hanqiu’s dark face flushed red. “I already said it cannot be Xiao Ling!”


    “Who else could it be?” One of Ning Qing’s rtives, who had always been mean, said disdainfully, “This Qin Ling is just like your eldest daughter, skipping sses every day. He’s a little bandit who dares to fight with his schoolmates at such a young age. I heard from our Zhong Zhong that this time he’s been ordered by his teacher to go home and reflect?”


    Ning Qing’s face was tight.


    Qin Ling looked up and nced at the rtive. “Do you dare to say this in front of her?”


    The rtive froze and suddenly flushed with agitation.


    Say this in front of Qin Ran? How could she dare to say this in front of a lunatic?


    “Qin Hanqiu, look at your son’s attitude.” She immediately turned to Qin Hanqiu andined. “How could you still insist that he didn’t do it?”


    **


    Ning Qing’s rtives were noisy and had no limits to their rudeness.


    Lin Qi had never dealt with this kind of person before, so he pressed his aching head and then turned to the lounge to wait for Qin Yu and Old Master Lin.


    It wasn’t convenient for him toe forward regarding Qin Hanqiu’s son.


    Today’s banquet had been specially arranged ording to Qin Yu’s wishes.


    Qin Yu’s situation in Beijing had already stabilized.


    She was going back to First Middle School today to settle the formalities.


    Thus, the Lin family had arranged for the Ning family’s rtives toe to Yun Cheng today.


    Old Master Lin now ced great importance on Qin Yu and had gone to pick her up personally.


    Lin Qi didn’t wait long before Qin Yu arrived. Old Master Lin waited outside in the car and didn’te inside.


    The two of them had heard about this incident on the road.


    Regardless of the truth behind it, this matter still had a great impact on Qin Yu’s banquet.


    “Miss, I already told you not to invite these messy and inappropriate rtives. They bring along a foul atmosphere, just look at the trouble now.” Aunt Zhang stood outside and was toozy to deal with the rtives.


    This might even be a joke.


    Qin Yu pursed her lips and felt like her pride had been torn apart. Such a mess had happened even before the start of the banquet.


    Everything was going against her.


    Dai Ran’s students had also returned with her, so she was afraid that they mightugh at her because of this!


    Qin Yu’s chest undted and her anger raged inside.


    These rtives were really so troublesome!


    “Mom, what did Qin Ling say?” Qin Yu turned directly to Ning Qing.


    Ning Qing shook her head. “He said he didn’t take it.”


    Aunt Zhang nced at Qin Yu and immediately said, “I saw Miss Qin just now too.”


    “Really? Isn’t she in ss now?” Qin Yu narrowed her eyes.


    Lin Qi was also stunned. He didn’t remember telling Qin Ran about this.


    Moreover, with Qin Ran’s character, she wouldn’te even if he had told her.


    Aunt Zhang shook her head, paused for a moment, and then continued in a mocking voice, “It’s not surprising to see her at this time.”


    In the Lin family, Aunt Zhang had often heard about Qin Ran’s truancy and bad grades.


    Qin Yu nodded and stopped talking about Qin Ran. She didn’t want to worry about her now.


    Ning Qing’s expression froze. She felt veryplicated when she heard that Qin Ran had yed truancy toe here.


    At this time.


    The door of the lounge opened.


    “Look, is this the diamond that the celebrity lost!” The cousin’s mother came out with a diamond about the size of a thumb and showed it to Ning Qing and Qin Yu. “I took it from the little bandit, Qin Ling, and he almost bit my hand!”


    She had little knowledge, but this stone did indeed look beautiful.


    Qin Yu and Ning Qing had spent many years in a prestigious family and could recognize diamonds.


    Thus, they recognized the diamond at first nce.


    Qin Yu’s expression turned solemn and she went in to find Qin Ling.


    Ning Qing and Lin Qi also went in.


    “Why did you steal someone’s belonging at this time? Did you think my life was going too smoothly?” Qin Yu held the diamond and simply wanted to smash it into Qin Ling’s eyes that looked just like Qin Ran’s.


    Qin Ling was silent. His eyes were red and he just pounced towards the thing in Qin Yu’s hand like a beast.


    Qin Hanqiu did not expect Qin Ling to have that diamond in his hand. He froze for a moment and then looked down at him. “Xiao Ling! Where did you get that?”


    Qin Yu was toozy to exin and just handed the diamond to Aunt Zhang. “Bring this to Li Shuangning. I’ll go overter to apologize directly.”


    “Big brother gave this to me!” Qin Ling broke away from Qin Hanqiu with sudden strength and directly snatched the diamond away from her with red eyes.


    The cousin’s mother sneered loudly. “What big brother? Why did I not know that you had a big brother?”


    “Big brother is Sister’s friend!” Qin Ling put the diamond in his pocket and squeezed it tightly. He stared at the people around him alertly like a cheetah.


    Qin Yu froze for a moment and then pursed her lips. “You mean Qin Ran?”


    Qin Ling stared at her coldly and did not reply.


    Qin Yu nodded.


    Then, she turned to Ning Qing and said mockingly, “Mom, you heard that. She skipped ss to instigate the child to do this kind of thing in order to destroy my banquet. She simply detests me.”


    Ning Qing’s mouth opened.


    Qin Yu turned towards Aunt Zhang and said mockingly, “Call the police.”


    Ning Qing’s expression changed. “Yu’er!”


    Lin Qi also spoke, “Let it go since it has been found. Let’s settle this privately. Ran Ran wouldn’t do this...”


    Qin Yu didn’t expect these people to stand on Qin Ran’s side, so she sneered. “She wouldn’t? Then what’s with Li Shuangning’s diamond? Could it possibly be Qin Ran’s or her rogue friends’?!”
