Ma'am You Have Been Uncovered Chapter 288

Accustomed to it, Tian Xiaoxiao simply put on her sunglasses and waved goodbye to Qin Ran and Wang Zifeng. “See you tomorrow.”

Her manager had only scolded her out of anxiety.

But after realizing that Qin Ran and Wang Zifeng were there, she saved Tian Xiaoxiao's face and didn't continue.

“You're Xiaoxiao's friend, right?” She glanced at Qin Ran and immediately relaxed her tone. “Do you have intentions of joining the entertainment industry?”

“No.” Turning, Qin Ran looked out the window and immediately saw Cheng Juan parking his car opposite. She put on her peaked cap and said, “I'm leaving now.”

Waving at them perfunctorily without even turning her head, she walked slowly towards the door.

The manager stared at her back regretfully. Since the girl didn't want it and had rejected her so directly, it was obvious she didn't have the slightest intention of joining the entertainment industry.

Once she left, Wang Zifeng didn't stay either and bid farewell to Tian Xiaoxiao before going home.

Tian Xiaoxiao and her manager got into the van.

“I'm serious, don't provoke Bai Tiantian and the others out of the blue,” Tian Xiaoxiao's manager sat in the back seat and said seriously. “She has already signed with the Jiang Corporation. With one word, she can destroy your life as a newbie.”

Tian Xiaoxiao folded her arms and swiped on her Weibo. She still had 1.02 million fans, most of which were zombie fans bought by her manager.

She nodded and sounded quite depressed. “Okay, Sister Wen.”

Everyone in the entertainment industry wanted to be famous. But after more than ten years since her debut, she was still playing as an unimportant female character. Hence, she had also calmed down after such a long time.

Her former manager had taken a fancy to her appearance and potential, but after meeting Bai Tiantian, he terminated their contract and she was then sent to Sister Wen by the company…

Sister Wen had originally been Bai Tiantian's manager, but she was also quite unlucky. The most promising artist under her, Bai Tiantian, was spotted by Tian Xiaoxiao's former manager and was then replaced by the non-monsieur, Tian Xiaoxiao.

In terms of luck, these two were indeed unparalleled in the entertainment industry.

Qin Ran got into the co-pilot seat.

She held onto a cup of milk tea.

“You were released earlier today?” asked Cheng Juan as he glanced at her.

“Monday, it's tradition.” Qin Ran took a sip of milk tea while biting the straw and glancing at him sideways.

Nodding, Cheng Juan started the car.

His phone rang.

While resting one hand on the steering wheel, he reached out for his phone with the other.

But before he got it, Qin Ran pinched it away with two fingers.

Biting onto her straw, she glanced at him and said slowly, “What are you looking at?”

Cheng Juan retracted his gaze and thought about it. His eyebrows relaxed and he said gently, “I'm driving with two hands. I didn't forget.”

“Jiang Dongye.” Qin Ran turned the phone and saw the name displayed on the screen. She directly picked it up.

She also remembered that Jiang Dongye and Gu Xichi were in Beijing.

After Gu Xichi arrived in Beijing, she rarely heard anything from him.

She only knew that he had been in the medical laboratory in Beijing for the past six months, but she didn't know what he was studying.

“Master Juan, do you know the big movements of the Yunguang Consortium?” Jiang Dongye put down the pen in his hand and asked.

“No, I don't.” Qin Ran leaned back on the seat, her face blank.

Jiang Dongye: “… Miss Qin?”

Qin Ran muttered “Yeah”, and then turned on the speaker. “Talk.”

Jiang Dongye was simply talking about the Yunguang Consortium's EA robots and intelligence systems. They had just held the press conference yesterday and were already on Weibo's hot search today.

The Yunguang Consortium's headquarters was located in Beijing's Financial Center as if it already had plans to settle in Beijing.

Numerous forces had sent people to investigate the details of the Yunguang Consortium. After all, this was the second of Asia's top five giants. However, to this day, no force had managed to sneak into the core of the Yunguang Consortium.

Jiang Dongye didn't dare ask his Father and had hence turned to Cheng Juan.

Driving in concentration, Cheng Juan muttered casually, which made Jiang Dongye feel very hurt.

When he was about to hang up, Qin Ran put down her milk tea and placed a hand on her chin. She asked, “You have an entertainment company?”

She vaguely remembered him talking about it in Yun Cheng.

She had noticed it when Tian Xiaoxiao's manager was talking about the Jiang Corporation.

“Yes, Miss Qin, do you have any instructions?” Jiang Dongye stood up. “Are you entering the entertainment industry? I'll give you top resources and the best managers…”

“No, not me, I've never thought of it.” Qin Ran sat upright.

Jiang Dongye's voice was full of regret. “Okay.”

As the car turned a corner, Qin Ran continued supporting her chin with one hand. “Does your company have an artist named Bai Tiantian?”

“Bai Tiantian?” Jiang Dongye was lost, then he exclaimed, “I don't know.”

After hanging up the phone, he tapped his finger on the table for a while before dialing for his assistant.

“Chairman Jiang?” The assistant glanced at him and immediately asked, “Does Brother Gu need something again?”

Jiang Dongye's entertainment company's staff all knew that Brother Gu was very impressive.

“No.” Jiang Dongye put away the files. “Does our company have an artist named Bai Tiantian?”

“Not in my impression. Let me check.” The assistant looked away.

Ting Lan.

When Qin Ran returned with Cheng Juan, Cheng Wenru was sitting on the sofa.

She was holding onto a signature pen in one hand and a folder was placed on her lap casually. While she signed the documents rigorously and solemnly, Secretary Li stood beside her with a stack of documents.

“Why are you here again?” Cheng Juan threw the key onto the sofa and frowned at her.

When Cheng Wenru heard him, she closed the folder in her hand and replied calmly, “I want to talk serious business with you.”

“I don't want to listen at all.” Cheng Juan interrupted her politely.

“Then you're just wandering like this?” Handing the folder to Secretary Li, Cheng Wenru folded her arms and leaned against the sofa. “Wandering around with the reputation of the Cheng family's crown prince?”

Cheng Mu held a pot of flowers expressionlessly and walked in front of her.

Then, he picked up a cup of tea and walked in front of her expressionlessly.

Cheng Wenru rubbed her forehead. “Cheng Mu, sit down!”

Cheng Mu sat at the coffee table, holding his teacup in silence.

In the kitchen, the Cheng family's chef finished preparing dinner. He stood by the kitchen door, waiting for them to dine.

Cheng Juan glanced at Qin Ran. “Go eat.”

She nodded. She would practice the violin later.

They just sat down at the dining table when the doorbell rang. Cheng Mu immediately put down the teacup and ran over to open the door.

Two people stood at the door.

Cheng Mu recognized one of them and immediately greeted in a respectful tone, “Principal Zhou?”

He had been at Beijing University previously as well, but not from his own abilities. They had included the spot for him when they accepted Cheng Juan…

“Yes.” Principal Zhou nodded and said warmly, “Is Classmate Qin Ran home?”

“Yes, Miss Qin is here.” Cheng Mu turned around and let Principal Zhou enter.

Since they were all in the same circle, Cheng Wenru also recognized Zhou Shan even though she had studied at University A back then. She immediately stood up. “Principal Zhou.”

Then, she glanced at Cheng Juan and whispered, “Do you know the Zhou family?”

Wasn't Cheng Juan always the arrogant “I'm No. 1 in the world”, and other than a few negligible families, other families didn't pay attention to him?

When did he have a friendship with the Zhou family?

“We're not close, he's probably not looking for me.” Cheng Juan also stood up and put down his teacup lazily.

Cheng Wenru squinted. She didn't want to ask further.

Zhou Shan swept his eyes across the room and saw Qin Ran sitting at the dining table. He first greeted Cheng Wenru and Cheng Juan before looking at her and introducing the person beside him. “This is the Dean of our school's Mathematics Department. I brought him here to find you…”

Even before Qin Ran had selected Beijing University, Zhou Shan had taken the initiative to transfer her files over.

The archive center had her picture, and especially her face… it was easier to recognize than that of a celebrity.

Zhou Shan recognized her at a glance.

Several Deans of the Beijing University had also noticed that the nation's top scorer had entered Beijing University, and for a while, they were all looking forward to which major she would choose…

Until this afternoon, they couldn't sit still after the major she chose was publicized.

The Dean of the Department of Mathematics didn't wait for Zhou Shan to finish. He interrupted him and looked at Qin Ran. “Classmate Qin Ran, the mathematics paper was so difficult this year, but you still managed to score full marks. You're the only one in the nation. But now, instead of majoring in Mathematics, why did you choose Automation?”

This year's paper had been difficult, very difficult.

The Comprehensive Science papers had also been difficult, but not as much as Mathematics. After all, the Mathematics paper had been a headache even for the group of IMO candidates.

Qin Ran had chosen the Department of Automation, much to everyone's surprise.

Putting down her chopsticks, she stood up, looked at the Dean of the Mathematics Department, and said politely, “Because I want to.”

They originally thought she would give several reasons and didn't expect her to be so willful. The Dean of the Mathematics Department was hot-headed and said directly, “What's so good about automation? They are a group of bald graduate students!”
