Ting Lan.

Cheng Wenru came early before settling her company affairs.

Cheng Juan was sitting on the sofa downstairs with his legs slightly draped and his computer on his knees.

Cheng Mu was squatting in a small corner, very seriously holding a small shovel and a series of tools. He was muttering to himself, complaining about how his brother hadn’t taken good care of the flowers.

Cheng Wenru looked around upstairs but couldn’t find Qin Ran, so she came down and sat across from Cheng Juan. “Ran Ran is still in school?

“Wait a little longer.” Cheng Juan tapped on the keyboard casually without even looking up.

“I’ll wait a little longer.” Sighing regretfully, she sat upright, tapped her fingertips on her knees, and slightly squinted. “Have you heard that the institute is going to accept a new member outside of the four major families?”

The institute specialized in engineering research on weapons and automated machinery.

Cheng Juan was never concerned about these things and merely replied, “Really?”

“Why don’t you have any emotional changes?” Cheng Wenru crossed her arms and lifted her chin towards him. “Don’t tell me you’re already fighting with Big Brother?”

“Why would I want to fight with him?” Cheng Juan smirked and faintly glanced at her, his fingers pausing for a moment.

“It has spread all over the house.” Cheng Wenru leaned forward. “The Second Hall Master’s incident shook Big Brother’s position in the Cheng family. I’m so impressed by you, you made a blockbuster without a single sound.”

“It was an accident.” Cheng Juan couldn’t help but grin when he heard this. An elegant charm flowed between his eyebrows, and he simply said, “I won’t fight him.”

Leaning back, Cheng Wenru frowned. “Why not? You have to know that Big Brother won’t give you a way out in the end.”

The Cheng family was considered good under Old Master Cheng’s management.

The Qin family was killing one another and couldn’t even squeeze into the four major families now.

The most important thing in a family was the leader. He must be meritocratic, broad-minded, and elegant. Otherwise, it would be hard to become generous and broad-minded.

When Old Master Cheng had given him the name Cheng Raohan, he had hoped he would have a broad mind and a generous heart.

Who knew that he would follow his mother in the end. Over the years, Old Master Cheng became more and more disappointed with Cheng Raohan, but Cheng Juan was still indifferent about the family, and Cheng Wenru focused on her company. Thus, Cheng Raohan had dominated the Cheng family.

“A fight will ensue.” Cheng Juan’s calm voice was a little more casual. “But I won’t be the one fighting.”

He put the computer onto the table and then turned to look at Cheng Wenru. “It will be you,” he said without any haste.

“Me?” Cheng Wenru paused and then shook her head. “How could it be me?” She laughed.

“It can only be you.” Cheng Juan stood up and hooked the car key on the table with his fingertips. He walked to the door and paused before slowly saying, “The Cheng family still needs to be inherited by the Cheng family.”

He gently closed the door.

Sitting on the sofa, Cheng Wenru narrowed her sharp eyes.

“Miss, tea.” After washing his hands, Cheng Mu went to the kitchen to pour her a cup of tea.

She reached out for it and held it in her hands.

Slightly frowning, she tapped the teacup with her fingertips absent-mindedly. This wasn’t the first time she had discussed this with Cheng Juan.

But in the past, he had always carelessly responded to her. He would still do what he should afterward and took over half of the Cheng family’s affairs at most. He brought it back on track and then handed it back to the Cheng family.

This had been the case for the base in the beginning. After half a year of special training, he had climbed to the person-in-charge of the base. But after teaching a group of people, he left and went to learn photography. The Old Master had been hopping mad, but he still didn’t bear to scold him in the end.

Similar things had happened often. It was rumored that he had a wide range of hobbies and acted too arrogantly, so it was difficult for him to be successful.

Cheng Wenru had also thought so at the beginning, until later…

When the Old Master was seriously ill, Cheng Jin had taken her to the auction house to see the “Daylily,” a flower that seemed like an alien species.

Since then, the Old Master’s condition had stabilized, and Cheng Jin had instructed her not to spread a word of this.

Later, Cheng Juan had taken her to start a company.

There were rumors that her methods were extraordinary, but in fact, her methods were worlds apart from Cheng Juan’s. Even half of her methods to obtain unwavering support for herself she had learned from Cheng Juan.

She knew that she had changed a lot, and several elders that Cheng Juan found had taught her something new from time to time…

She knew better than anyone that if Cheng Juan wanted to succeed the Cheng family, as long as he wanted to, nothing was impossible.

In the past few years, she had discussed this issue with Cheng Juan more than once, but he had only perfunctorily replied to her every time. Only this time…

The Cheng family still needed the Cheng family to inherit… What did this mean?

Taking a sip of water, she recalled that when Cheng Juan had been picked up by Old Master Cheng to the Cheng family’s home for the first time, she had still been underaged. She remembered how good that year had been, and the biggest meteor shower in a century had even appeared.

Beijing’s layout had changed drastically, and the heads of several big families had developed internationally.

When Old Master Cheng returned, he brought back a three-year-old boy who looked like a jade and snow sculpture. He had been in a coma and only woke three days later.

Old Master Cheng just explained to her and Cheng Raohan that he was his youngest son.

Cheng Wenru’s mother had passed during birth, and for many years, Old Master Cheng hadn’t had a new lover. His sudden hundredfold devotion towards this extra son was unacceptable to Cheng Raohan but acceptable to Cheng Wenru.

She had brought Cheng Juan up for a period of time, so their relationship was even deeper than with Cheng Raohan.

After drinking a cup of tea, Cheng Wenru’s mind was filled with thoughts.

Her thoughts were jumbled up, and she didn’t know where to begin.

Putting down her teacup, she turned to Cheng Mu and folded her legs. “Mu Mu, how did you get picked up by my Third Bro?”

She didn’t know what Cheng Jin did, but judging from his words and demeanor, she realized that he was much more powerful than the elders in her company.

“Picked up?” Cheng Mu immediately shook his head. He paused and then muttered something hesitantly.

“What? Speak louder.” Cheng Wenru raised an eyebrow.

“I said I was forced by my brother to fraud Master Juan with a car accident!” Cheng Mu exclaimed while blushing.

This really piqued Cheng Wenru’s interest. She put her chin on her hand and wanted to ask him how he performed this fraud.

Cheng Mu remained silent, lowered his head, and continued trimming the flowers.

November’s weather was very cold.

It wasn’t a holiday today. Cheng Juan parked his car at the intersection and walked for two minutes to the school gate.

He checked the time on his watch and casually looked up at the school gate, expecting to wait another minute.

No matter what time it was, Beijing University’s school gate was crowded.

He waited for a minute before seeing the person in the crowd wearing a hoodie. Her half-lowered head seemed impatient, and her black earphone cord could be seen sliding down her white sweater.

Winter came early in Beijing.

The lowest November temperature dropped to four degrees, and many people were wrapped in cotton clothes.

When she approached him, he pulled her over and pulled off her hoodie. “Are you cold? Where’s your coat?”

He had gone to deal with some matters last night. When he came back in the morning, she had already gone to school for self-study. Cheng Mu had also gone to find Lin Siran’s father in the morning.

He lowered his head and pulled off his coat before wrapping Qin Ran up. Then, he tilted his head at her, pondering for a moment, thinking of how Cheng Shui had taken good care of her last winter…

During this period of time, he felt that Chen Shulan’s worries weren’t unfounded. Qin Ran could really torture herself to death.

“It’s a little cold. It wasn’t so cold in the morning,” she casually replied, reaching out to casually tug at the coat, revealing her head. The school had a heater, so she had worn thinner layers.

Glancing silently at her, Cheng Juan just let go, took out the key, and lowered his voice. “Sister Ran, have you considered it?”

Gathering the coat around her, Qin Ran kept her head down, and vaguely muttered, “No.”

Cheng Juan chuckled. “Okay.”

He drove the car back to Ting Lan, where Cheng Wenru was still sitting on the sofa as if thinking about life.

When she saw Qin Ran, her eyes lit up, and she gave up thinking about life. “Ran Ran, I’ll take you to a private restaurant. The boiled meat and ribs there are absolutely delicious!”

Qin Ran casually put down her books on the table.

At the top were two upside-down A4 papers.

Walking over to take a look, Cheng Mu vaguely saw the word “Agreement” on the paper.

Qin Ran thought about it and apologetically said to Cheng Wenru, “I have an appointment with my teacher today.”

“Teacher?” Cheng Wenru thought of Master Wei subconsciously. “Then… can I invite you and Master Wei to dinner?”

Taking off her coat, Qin Ran turned to head upstairs to change her clothes. Upon hearing this, she thought for a while and looked up. “It’s not Master Wei.”
