    After Cheng Jin finished speaking, Cheng Juan said nothing and still looked in the direction outside the door.

    After a long while, he turned to Cheng Jin and said softly, “He wants to see me.”

    The study was very quiet, and there was no sound outside the door. Cheng Juan’s words seemed a bit sarcastic.

    “Tomorrow, the group headquarters.” Cheng Jin lowered his eyes.

    Cheng Juan smiled and glanced at Cheng Jin, his eyes quite indifferent. In the end, he didn’t say anything and just said casually, “I know.”

    After saying that, he opened the door and walked towards Qin Ran.

    Cheng Jin was still standing there, looking at Cheng Juan’s back, and couldn’t help but pursed his lips.

    Cheng Mu’s collection room.

    Qin Ran was still studying the rusty lock.

    This was what Chen Shulan left for her. She didn’t want to use brute force to break it open, but Chen Shulan didn’t leave a key for her either.

    Just when she was wondering whether to find a lockpicking expert, Cheng Juan knelt down next to her and said, “I want to pick the lock.”

    “Well,” Qin Ran squatted on the spot and fiddled with it a little. The lock was quite retro and she didn’t know why there was so much rust. “I don’t know if it can still be opened.”

    Just as she was thinking about it, Cheng Juan reached out and took the box out of her hand. He looked at it and said, “The spring beads are in place and can be opened.”

    He said and asked Cheng Mu to bring over the toolbox.

    Then he took the wooden box outside, put the wooden box on the table, and pulled out a chair to sit down.

    Qin Ran followed him and sat across from him, supporting her chin with her hand casually, looking at him curiously, “You can open this too.”

    She feels that she has learned enough and messy things. What Cheng Juan has learned is all messy stuff.

    Who can connect the doctor with the locksmith?

    I seem to have heard Qin Hanqiu say that his economics is not bad.

    “It’s not bad, I’ve been studying it for a while.” Cheng Juan glanced at her and spoke slowly.

    Cheng Mu took out the tool box, and Cheng Juan reached out and rummaged through it, finding two paper clips. He pinched them with his slender fingers, straightened them easily, and then bent the ends into a slight arc.

    Then he took out a wrench and inserted one end into the lock cylinder.

    Qin Ran has never studied the structure of these locks. In her eyes, there is no lock that cannot be broken.

    At this time, I didn’t see how he actually operated.

    A pair of eyes just looked at Cheng Juan. He usually did things lazily. He seemed to be able to predict most things and didn’t take it to heart.

    At this time, his eyes were lowered, his chiseled profile was a little pale, and he exuded confidence.

    “哢卡”

    The lock is opened.

    Cheng Juan casually threw the paper clip and wrench into the toolbox, then raised his chin towards Qinran and tapped the blue box with his fingertips, “Take it.”

    Qin Ran opened the lid of the box without any precautions against Cheng Juan.

    There was a document inside, like a research report, and a piece of dark black metal that had been there for who knows how many years, but it didn’t show any rust.

    When Cheng Mu saw this, he didn’t see anything.

    When Chen Shulan and Ning Wei were in Yuncheng, Cheng Mu could tell that they didn’t look like ordinary people, but he didn’t guess what was wrong.

    Of course, he couldn’t see it at this time. He just lowered his head and glanced at the wooden box, then withdrew his gaze.

    Go back to the room and look at the pile of books Qin Ran gave him.

    Qin Ran looked at the research document and pursed her lips, knowing that it should be the last thing left by her grandfather.

    She turned around behind her back, took the document and the piece of metal, and found a slightly yellowed letter at the bottom of the box.

    Just as he took out the letter to read, Cheng Juan suddenly pressed Qin Ran’s right hand.

    Qin Ran raised her head, looked at Cheng Juan, and raised her eyebrows.

    “Take it back to the room and look at it.” Cheng Juan didn’t look at her. He just stared at the piece of metal in the box. After a long while, he raised his head and said, “Your grandpa is really…”

    He didn’t know how to describe it in words, but his dark eyes clearly showed respect.

    “Okay.” Qin Ran didn’t ask anything.

    She closed the box with a snap.

    The two of them went upstairs together.

    After Cheng Juan went out, Cheng Jin walked to Cheng Mu’s collection room, looked at Cheng Mu who was sitting cross-legged on the floor reading comics, and asked with a calm face, “Has Ouyang Wei contacted you recently?”

    “No,” Cheng Mu looked up and glanced at Cheng Jin in surprise, “You all didn’t let me contact her.”

    He still hasn’t figured out why.

    Cheng Jin said “hmm” thoughtfully, “Yes, you did the right thing.”

    “Ah, by the way, brother, wait a minute, I’ll transfer some money to you.” Cheng Mu remembered something, took out his phone and transferred 20 million to Cheng Jin.

    Cheng Mu had to go through a lot of procedures to transfer money, and it wasn’t as fast as Cheng Jin. For 20 million, it would probably take several hours for verification to arrive.

    But when Cheng Jin saw the 100 million in Cheng Mu’s account, he paused and was surprised, “Where did you get so much money?”

    “Miss Qin taught me this.” Cheng Mu raised his chin, looking quite proud from his brows.

    Seeing Cheng Mu like this, Cheng Jin simply didn’t say anything.

    He stood up and walked out of the room directly.

    “I’m going to the study to take care of something.” Back upstairs, Cheng Juan glanced at Qin Ran and reached out to touch her cheek, “Don’t think too much, just do whatever you want.”

    After thinking for a while, he lowered his head and said, “It’s best to follow me closely these days.”

    Qin Ran looked at him. Mr. Xu had said this to her before.

    She nodded, originally wanting to ask Cheng Juan if he knew what was in the box.

    But looking at Cheng Juan’s reaction, she could probably guess it, and he definitely knew.

    She turned around and walked thoughtfully to the room.

    “Forget it,” Cheng Juan looked at her back, thought for a moment, then reached out and pulled her back, “Let’s go to the study together to study.”

    What Chen Shulan left behind was indeed Ning Er’s research data.

    Qin Ran sat on the table in the study room and looked at the information on it.

    It is indeed as Mr. Xu said, another list.

    Chen Shulan has always been Ning Er’s assistant. When Fang Zhenbo called Chen Shulan Professor Chen at Chen Shulan’s funeral, he obviously recognized her.

    Cheng Juan turned on the computer and pulled a video from Cheng Shui.

    After the meeting, he went out again to answer a phone call.

    Qin Ran sat on the chair, looked at Cheng Juan’s back, tapped the list left by Chen Shulan with one hand, and thought for a while.

    Before I could think of anything, the phone on my hand rang.
