    Nobody thought this incident would be so blown-up.


    Ning Qing wanted to say something, but after ncing at Qin Yu, she couldn’t figure her out and decided to keep quiet.


    Lin Qi paused.


    This matter was not Qin Ran’s style. With her personality, she wouldn’t do such a shameless thing even if she wanted to take revenge. Instead, she woulde forward directly like how she did with Xu Shen previously.


    “What’s the situation?” Old Master Lin was downstairs with two students who hade back with Qin Yu.


    He waited for a while and was afraid that something had gone wrong, so he went up.


    Lin Qi sinctly exined to Old Master Lin about the diamond in Qin Ling’s hands.


    Old Master Lin frowned.


    “Yu’er...” Lin Qi ignored Old Master Lin’s intentions and started to say something.


    But Old Master Lin interrupted him directly.


    “Don’t get involved in this matter.” Old Master Lin had long seen through the war of the two sisters in the Qin family, and it did not matter if Qin Yu continued to stir up matters. “It probably has nothing to do with Qin Ran. But these people cannot escape from this either, so we can clear her name as well when the policee. You shouldn’te forward. What will Yu’er think if you stand on Qin Ran’s side?”


    “So you don’t think it was her?” Lin Qi pursed his lips.


    Old Master Lin said lightly, “That’s not important.”


    Old Master Lin didn’t let Lin Qi have a say in this matter.


    Old Master Lin said briefly, “I will go to Miss Li.”


    The Ning family’s rtives were all around.


    Old Master Lin didn’t want to stay long.


    “Aunt Zhang, follow Grandpa and ask Miss Li Shuangning over.” Qin Yu nodded and turned to Aunt Zhang.


    Then, she nced at Qin Hanqiu. Since Lin Qi was present, she didn’t greet him as “Father” and instead, said with a stony expression, “Call her down yourself.”


    She was referring to Qin Ran.


    Qin Hanqiu frowned and took a deep breath. “Ran Ran only came after the diamond had been lost, so what does this have to do with her?”


    “Ask her, how would I know if she instructed Qin Ling to do this ahead of time?” Qin Yu closed her eyes and said mockingly. Then, she simply ignored Qin Hanqiu.


    She didn’t know when Qin Hanqiu started protecting Qin Ran so much.


    Ning Qing took out her phone, thought about it for a moment, and still approached Qin Hanqiu. “Tell her toe down first. She will not answer my call.”


    Not only did she refuse to answer the call, but ever sincest time, Qin Ran’s phone had been on a call with someone else for some reason.


    She didn’t seem to have been cklisted, but she still couldn’t get through to Qin Ran.


    “She will still have toe down when the policee,” Ning Qing whispered.

    At this time, Gu Xichi’s stuff had just been installed.


    “There’s a car with the license te 1111. It’s Qian Dui’s special car and it’s parked at the back door.” Qin Ran closed the door and went out through the staff entrance with Gu Xichi.


    Gu Xichi put on a ck scarf and said in an unclear voice, “Isn’t this staff entrance locked?”


    Last time when Jiang Dongye had taken a picture of him on the square, he had wanted to take the staff entrance, but it had been locked.


    It was not that Gu Xichi didn’t have the means to unlock it.


    But there were too many surveince cameras in the lobby, and Yun Ding Hotel’s security guards would arrive before he could open it.


    As soon as he spoke, Qin Ran pushed slightly and the door opened.


    “It’s opened today?” Gu Xichi pulled his scarf and raised an eyebrow in surprise.


    The staff ess to the Yun Ding Hotel was different from the public ess. The back door was very small and only fit a few people.


    Qin Ran watched him get on the elevator and did not go down with him.


    Instead, she closed the staff entrance and went back to the hotel with his room card.


    She didn’t expect to bump into Uncle Hai in the elevator.


    “Uncle Hai? Where are you going?” Qin Ran paused.


    Uncle Hai looked at Qin Ran with an unpredictable expression and said very respectfully in a lowered voice, “I’m going down to start the car. Old Master has a banquet today.”


    Not many people could invite Master Wei to dinner given his status.


    Qin Ran nodded and didn’t ask further.


    She got off the elevator on Gu Xichi’s floor.


    When she got off, she received a phone call from an unknown number.


    Oh, it was her cousin’s mother.


    **


    A police car was parked outside Yun Ding Hotel.


    Three minutester, Qin Ran appeared in the lounge on the first floor.


    The cousin’s mother was still taunting Qin Ling. When she saw Qin Ran, she suddenly quietened.


    Qin Hanqiu didn’t call her and was surprised to see Qin Ran. “Ran Ran, why are you here...”


    “What’s the situation?” Qin Ran nodded and watched as Qin Ling clutched something in his pocket. His head was lowered and his eyes were red.


    Two people were taking notes next to them.


    Qin Ran lowered her eyebrows and asked Qin Ling.


    “Your brother stole someone else’s diamond...” Her cousin’s mother said quietly.


    Other rtives also whispered, “They have really brought shame to our Ning family...”


    Qin Ran reached out.


    With a loud bang, she closed the door of the lounge.


    It resulted in a deafening sound.


    She turned to look at the rtives and licked her lips. “Are you all Qin Ling?”


    These rtives did not expect Qin Ran to behave like this in front of the policeman, so they were instantly scared and fell silent.


    Qin Ran turned to Qin Ling. “Tell me.”


    Qin Ling looked up and said in a rather calm voice, “They said that I stole this, but big brother gave it to me.”


    Qin Yu couldn’t take it anymore. “Qin Ran, does the thing in Qin Ling’s hand have anything to do with you?”


    “It belongs to my friend, you can think of it as a gift from me.” Qin Ran smiled.


    Qin Yu nodded and turned directly to Lin Qi. She said mockingly, “Dad, did you hear that?”


    This diamond did not look like something Qin Ran or her friend would have.


    The group of rtives heard this and also spoke immediately.


    “It has nothing to do with us...”


    They couldn’t wait to be one hundred meters away from Qin Ran.


    They had heard from Qin Yu that this diamond ne was worth nearly ten million yuan.


    The crime was to be punished with three years of prison.

    Old Master Lin and Aunt Zhang had already brought Li Shuangning’s manager over.


    “You can just give us the diamonds back.” Li Qiu knew about the Lin family and was rather polite to Old Master Lin. She pushed open the door of the lounge and came in. “Shuangning will not being forward. She’s a public figure and it’s not convenient for her to appear, as the sponsor will be unhappy if they hear about this.”


    She paused and looked at Old Master Lin before saying lightly, “I just did not expect the Lin family to have such rtives.”


    Old Master Lin looked embarrassed and awkward.


    The two of them reached the lounge.


    Li Qiu directly ignored Qin Ran and Qin Hanqiu and looked directly at Qin Yu and Lin Qi. “Where’s our Shuangning’s ne?”


    “Are you still not taking it out?” Qin Yu looked at Qin Ling sarcastically. “Aren’t you afraid of throwing your face?”


    Qin Hanqiu opened his mouth.


    Qin Ran folded her arms and said very calmly to Lin Qi, “This is your attitude?”


    Old Master Lin was afraid Lin Qi would say something, so he said quickly, “Ran Ran, let us just talk about the facts.”


    The so-called facts were that Qin Ling had taken it.


    Old Master Lin had no other choice. Qin Yu would be alienated from the Lin family if he so much as showed suspicion towards her. Facing off against Qin Ran, it was simply too easy to choose Qin Yu.


    Lin Qi pursed his lips and his heart sank. He had tried to improve his rtionship with Qin Ran privately before, but they were still rather distant.


    Now that this happened, it was no longer a problem with Qin Ran. The two families would not rest until they caused trouble and broke off all connections.


    However, Qin Ranughed and lifted her chin at Qin Ling. She said casually, “Give it to her.”


    Qin Ling thought about it and took out the stone slowly.


    The cousin’s mother grabbed it directly and handed it to Li Qiu. “Look.”


    Qin Yu did not want to watch on and simply turned to the policeman beside her. “Please deal with it however you want to.”


    Li Qiu took the ne and was surprised. “No, this is not our Shuangning’s ne!”


    Li Shuangning’s Dream Heart was a new product of the L Company and was finely polished. The diamond was set on a delicate tinum ne, but it was obvious that this stone had not been finely polished before.


    Qin Yu’s expression was mocking. “... Then where is Li Shuangning’s ne?”


    Qin Ran was not surprised.


    At this time, the manager of the hotel rushed in, sweating profusely.


    “Manager Wang.” Li Qiu and Old Master Lin both knew the hotel’s manager and immediately greeted him politely.


    Yun Ding Hotel belonged to Yunguang Consortium and was part of the internal circle, so nobody knew what kind of connections the manager had to the senior executives.


    Even if it did not matter, these two did not dare to treat him at will.


    Manager Wang nodded arbitrarily without speaking.


    He walked forward quickly, panting and gasping for breath, perhaps because of his weight. He turned to Qin Ran andined in a low voice. “Miss Qin, why did youe down again? No wonder I couldn’t find you when I went to the room upstairs.” After a pause, he said again, “This is the monitoring video you wanted.”


    He reached out and passed her a tablet.
