Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered-Chapter 327: Qin Xiuchen

Chapter 327: Qin Xiuchen

Butler Qin knew that it was definitely not Qin Hanqiu, hence the inquiry.

Sitting on the co-pilot seat, Qin Hanqiu raised his head, feeling a little confused at the sudden question. He immediately sat up straight. “Is there something wrong with the USB flash drive?”

“No, don’t worry, Second Master.” Butler Qin glanced at Ah Hai. “Ah Hai, explain it to him.”

1

Ah Hai nodded. “The one that Butler Qin gave you was actually the half-completed project of the Qin family’s headquarters. There’s a string of smart codes inside that is very difficult to comprehend, and the headquarters personnel could only solve 80%… Only your USB flash drive managed to solve it.”

Qin Hanqiu didn’t understand the talks of the code programming and just asked weakly, “Is solving the code… that impressive?”

Ah Hai paused at his question.

… Very impressive?

The Yunguang Consortium’s Poppy was a person who could attract countless programmers to the Yunguang Consortium just by name, was it not considered impressive?

Qin Hanqiu understood his meaning when he glanced at Ah Hai’s expression through the rearview mirror.

He laughed sheepishly.

“That’s why we asked you who touched your computer. Has anyone come to you in the past two days?” Butler Qin asked again.

“I don’t know, Uncle Qiu. The USB flash drive has always been at my house.” Qin Hanqiu felt even more confused. Other than Qin Ran and Cheng Juan, no one else had come that day.

Cheng Juan either drank with him or helped out in the kitchen and had never even seen the computer. As for Qin Ran, she had played games with Qin Ling.

1

The confused expression on Qin Hanqiu’s face didn’t seem fake.

Butler Qin and the others exchanged glances.

“Who is the Xiao Cheng who went to your house that day?” Butler Qin thought for a long time and could only think of the person who taught Qin Hanqiu.

At the mention of Cheng Juan, Qin Hanqiu’s expression turned proud. “Oh, Xiao Cheng still likes to be a doctor. I’ll introduce you to him next time when I have a chance.”

Nothing could be obtained from Qin Hanqiu’s mouth.

Once they arrived at Yunjin Community, they got out of the car.

Butler Qin walked one step behind and instructed Ah Wen in a low voice, “Go to the property and obtain the elevator’s CCTV monitoring videos of these two days.”

Ah Hai went upstairs with them.

Qin Hanqiu went to the bedroom to show his computer to Butler Qin and Ah Hai. “This is my computer, take a look.”

Pulling out a chair, Ah Hai sat down and turned on the computer, looking for any traces.

Twenty minutes later.

“That’s strange…” Ah Hai muttered thoughtfully. “I can’t find the slightest trace.”

Both he and Butler Qin believed that the change had happened on Qin Hanqiu’s side, but there was simply no trace here.

His computer was incredibly clean.

Butler Qin swept his eyes across the room and finally focused on Qin Hanqiu. “Are there any other computers?”

Qin Hanqiu hesitated. “Xiao Ling has one, but he’s still in school.”

Without Qin Ling’s permission, Qin Hanqiu wouldn’t casually touch his things.

1

Xiao Ling? Ah Hai glanced at Butler Qin questioningly.

“He’s Second Master’s youngest son. He’s in elementary school,” Butler Qin explained.

As a programmer, Ah Hai didn’t know much about the Qin family’s grievances, but he had also heard of the previous generation’s death and disappearance. Now, only the Fourth Master and Qin Xiuchen remained in the direct line of descent.

3

Second Master had just been retrieved by Butler Qin.

After hearing Butler Qin’s explanation, Ah Hai knew who Xiao Ling was.

But his intuition told him that he wouldn’t find anything even if Qin Ling came back.

1

Butler Qin sat on the stool, waiting for Qin Ling’s return. The phone in his pocket rang a few times, and when he took it out, his eyes lit up. He immediately stood up and picked up the call—

“Sixth Master, you’re back?”

Old Master Qin’s youngest son, Qin Xiuchen, was 32 years old this year. He was the Film Emperor Qin, a household name in the entertainment industry, a rare talent who had both looks and strength.

1

Qin Xiuchen had been making a major project abroad. During this period, the communication wasn’t good, and he rarely contacted Butler Qin.

1

On the other side of the call, Qin Xiuchen was dressed in casual clothes. He wore a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and a black mask over his mouth. “I just got off the plane. I heard that Second Bro was found?”

“Your movie is wrapping up. I haven’t contacted you all this while, so I didn’t notify you,” Butler Qin explained.

After exchanging a few more words, Butler Qin hung up the phone and stood up. “Second Master, Sixth Master is back. I’ll take you to meet him first.”

He couldn’t wait for Qin Ling’s return. Butler Qin drove the car directly to the school and brought Qin Ling along to meet Qin Xiuchen.

On the other side.

Qin Ran and Cheng Wenru strolled for an afternoon and were now eating in a retro restaurant.

“This place runs on a membership system. I heard that their ancestor was the royal chef of the Imperial household’s diet.” Cheng Wenru handed the bamboo scroll to her. “Order whatever you like.”

The interior was of an ancient city and was surrounded by a city wall outside as well as a rockery fountain underground. It only received 30 tables of guests every day and was extremely quiet.

Those who knew this place were families of rich heritage and history in Beijing.

They sat on the second floor, facing the window, overlooking the ancient building far away past the city wall.

Qin Ran casually ordered two dishes and returned the bamboo scroll to Cheng Wenru, who added a few more signature dishes.

On the top floor of the restaurant.

Cheng Raohan was holding the bamboo scroll while his subordinate whispered to him.

“My Second Sis is here?” He narrowed his eyes. “Who is she with?”

As a royal restaurant, people who weren’t particularly important were generally not brought here.

“I think it should be that Miss Qin.” The subordinate paused and sounded a little puzzled. “Those two… seem to have strolled around the ancient city the whole day.”

“Strolled for a whole day?” Cheng Raohan put down his wine glass and frowned upon hearing this. “What the hell is going on with Cheng Wenru these days?”

Why was she always entangled with Cheng Juan and that “Miss Qin”?

1

And they even strolled around the ancient city? The company’s funds were almost out of operation.

It was as if she had been possessed.

“Let’s go, we’ll meet my Second Sis downstairs.” Feeling strange that the person they were waiting for hadn’t arrived yet, Cheng Raohan put down the bamboo scroll and stood up to find Cheng Wenru.

The subordinates immediately went outside, and as soon as they opened the door, a woman wearing a purple cheongsam entered.

“Mr. Cheng, my apologies for the long wait,” the woman said apologetically to him. “I happened to receive an order.”

Smiling, Cheng Raohan turned and walked back. “I haven’t waited for a long time. Weiwei, you’re already giving me face by taking time out of your busy schedule.”

1

This woman was Ouyang Wei.

Cheng Raohan had wanted to go downstairs to take a look at that “Miss Qin” before Ouyang Wei’s arrival, but now that she was here, he naturally didn’t entertain such an idea.

Pitted against each other, it was obvious who was more important.

3

Downstairs.

Qin Ran and Cheng Wenru had just finished their meal. When the dessert came up, Cheng Wenru didn’t continue eating and directly packed it for Qin Ran to bring back.

“The desserts here are delicious and aren’t for sale outside,” Cheng Wenru said as she went downstairs. “It’ll be a pity not to eat it.”

When they went downstairs, Cheng Mu’s car was already parked there.

Qin Ran immediately recognized it. She bid Cheng Wenru farewell and got into the car.

Standing behind Cheng Wenru, Secretary Li wondered, “Miss, why were you eating in such a hurry?”

It wasn’t weird to eat for two hours in this kind of restaurant, but how long had they taken?

Just over half an hour.

Cheng Wenru folded her arms and sneered. “If we don’t release her, we won’t receive any money next month.”

2

If Cheng Juan said so, they would really suddenly go broke.

2

Thus, even Cheng Raohan knew of Cheng Wenru’s company’s recent deficit.

Secretary Li was speechless.

**

At the Violin Association.

Since the plagiarism incident, Qin Yu hadn’t come for more than half a month.

She was afraid of being looked at with contempt.

And Dai Ran hadn’t contacted her, either. For more than half a month, Qin Yu didn’t dare to go to the Shen family’s house and only stayed in a community that the Lin family had bought for her.

It wasn’t until the Mid-Autumn festival ended and the Internet popularity faded that she dared to come to the Violin Association wearing a mask.

2

At around five o’clock in the afternoon, most of the students of the Violin Association had already left.

Qin Yu lowered her head and hid her face all the way to the teaching building.

In the elevator on the first floor, only one person occasionally came down. Wearing a mask and covering her face with her hair, almost nobody recognized her.

She walked to the edge of the elevator.

The elevator door opened, and when it closed again, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, she took out her student card and swiped it inside.

The elevator remained motionless.
