Chapter 207 Urgent Matter
Upon hearing this, Qin Wenzhou was not as disappointed as usual. He always felt that the child was just being arrogant, but he had no proof.
Ji Ran thought for a moment, then reminded him:
"That woman said I was a vixen,"
Chi Tao often mentioned this nickname when she was complaining about TV dramas in the office, so Ji Ran probably knew it wasn't a nice thing to say.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wenzhou was furious, but not at all surprised.
Having known Fu Luanyin for so many years, he knew very well what kind of person that woman was, and how sharp-tongued and mean she was.
He will never let her get away with bullying his own child.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Ran, I won't let her ruin your reputation."
"I'll have Yin Li issue a public announcement right now. I want the whole world to know that you are my daughter, Qin Wenzhou's daughter!"
As Qin Wenzhou spoke, he picked up his phone again, ready to operate it.
Ji Ran was speechless. She stepped forward and snatched his phone away.
"Are you crazy?"
Qin Wenzhou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that the child might not want to acknowledge him, and that his decision was very selfish.
"But……"
He knew that, given Fu Luanyin's nature, she would definitely use this incident to attack Ji Ran, which would inevitably have a negative impact on the child's reputation and career.
"Your top priority is to resolve the divorce, find a way to get leverage over the Fu family, and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Ji Ran pointed out the key point:
"Otherwise, even if you explain now, it won't make any difference, and it might even..."
As he spoke, Ji Ran's gaze turned back to his mother on the bed.
"To put her in a position of injustice."
Thinking about this, Ji Ran couldn't help but feel a bit annoyed.
Fu Luanyin's evil deeds, and Qin Wenzhou's unreliability and stupidity.
In the end, however, she and her mother bore the brunt of the consequences.
The mother and daughter were both in worse situations than each other.
Who wouldn't complain if this happened to them?
Qi Mu understood the deep grievances she felt, and even more so, she understood how desperately she was suppressing them.
Feeling sorry for her, he tightened his grip on her even more.
Qin Wenzhou understood the resentment in her words and knew that he could not and would not refuse, so he could only lower his head in guilt.
"Well...I see."
In any case, the child is right; reuniting with the mother and daughter now would do more harm than good.
He must first deal with the Fu family before welcoming them back with a clean slate.
He welcomed the two most important people in his life.
Seeing this, Ji Ran knew it was time to leave, and her gaze towards her mother held a touch more longing.
"Alright, we'll be going now. Take good care of her."
As he spoke, Ji Ran pulled Qi Mu along.
"Hey? It's so late, why don't you stay here?" Qin Wenzhou blurted out without thinking, trying to persuade him to stay.
"No," Ji Ran refused, glancing reluctantly at her mother, "We can't help her here, and we'll only upset her..."
Qi Mu knew that telling her about Qin Wenzhou's suicide by jumping into the river today had shifted her opinion of Qin Wenzhou even further.
So she just wanted to leave some space for the two people who had been reunited after a long time.
"How could that be..." Qin Wenzhou was afraid that the child would have a negative reaction to Lingyue's stress response, but he didn't know how to persuade her, so he simply said:
“Let’s go to Yaoxian Hospital together tomorrow. It’ll be more convenient for you to stay here.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Ran fell into thought.
“...It is indeed inconvenient. After what happened tonight, Fu Luanyin will most likely send people to keep an eye on you and me. There is always a risk in you going out with her.”
As she spoke, Ji Ran turned to look at Qi Mu, wanting to confirm something, only to see him nod slightly at her.
Then she turned back to Qin Wenzhou and said:
"Tomorrow, you wait at home, and I'll go out with you. She... will be handed over to Qi Mu."
Qin Wenzhou was stunned. Ji Ran didn't bother to wait for him to say anything more, so she directly pulled Qi Mu away.
Qin Wenzhou wasn't doubting her plan; he was just feeling a little happy that he had persuaded her to stay today, but it turned out the child had no intention of doing so at all.
He stepped forward, wanting to try again:
"Why don't you stay here tonight? It's so late, it's not safe for you to ride your bike."
Ji Ran gave Qin Wenzhou a look that screamed "meddlesome."
The next second, the two disappeared from the room.
Qin Wenzhou, who was not prepared, was startled.
He always forgot that Commander Qi was a ghost.
He could only sigh, turn to look at the sleeping woman on the bed, and gently take her hand.
the next morning.
A discreet Alphard drove out of the Qin family villa.
Yin Li sat upright in the passenger seat, occasionally stealing glances at the two people in the back.
President Qin's brows remained furrowed, clearly indicating that something was on his mind.
Although Professor Ji looked at the scenery outside the window with a blank expression, his overall aura was clearly quite heavy.
That's really strange.
Early in the morning, President Qin said he would take Professor Ji to the company.
We just found Miss Qiu, and she's not in a good state... How could President Qin just leave Miss Qiu, whom he just found again, alone at home? It doesn't seem right at all.
However, it is barely reasonable for a father to bring his daughter to the company.
What's even stranger is that President Qin actually ordered that no one was allowed to go in and disturb Miss Qiu. In her condition, how could she manage without anyone taking care of her?
"By the way, Xiao Ran, Meng Hui is out of danger for now."
Qin Wenzhou suddenly spoke up:
"But we don't know when he'll wake up."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ran visibly breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned again.
What's wrong with this guy? Is he addicted to calling her Xiao Ran?
But she didn't refute anything; she just secretly kept an eye on the two cars that had been following them not far away.
Yin Li swallowed hard. Only in front of Professor Ji could she see her boss being so eager to please.
Oh, and now there's Miss Qiu too.
Soon, the car arrived at the Qin Group building. Ji Ran followed Qin Wenzhou into the building. It was rush hour, and the car attracted the amazement of many people along the way.
Everyone respectfully greeted "Good morning, President Qin," while also unable to resist peeking at the stunning young woman beside President Qin.
For a time, everyone was speculating about the girl's identity, and none of the speculations were positive.
But no one told them the answer.
Ji Ran had already locked onto several particularly hostile gazes and casually memorized their faces.
Upon arriving at Qin Wenzhou's top-floor office, Yin Li was instructed to prepare a meal.
Ji Ran walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with a superb view, admiring the panoramic city view, and said softly:
"You have several Fu family informants in your company."
Qin Wenzhou paused in his action of pulling out the drawer, his eyes wide with shock.
She didn't expect that she would notice all this just by going upstairs.
"Yeah, indeed."
He was naturally aware of this and had already taken precautions.
The reason he hasn't taken action against these people yet is because he wants to see just how far the Fu family is willing to go in their suicidal schemes.
However, the time for reckoning is fast approaching.
He didn't continue the conversation, but instead opened the drawer, took out the documents inside, and walked towards Ji Ran.
“Xiao Ran…”
Ji Ran rolled her eyes impatiently, turned around, and saw him hand her a document.
