Cheng Juan casually lowered his head and saw the notification.
It was an official message from 129 that succinctly stated that Lone Wolf agreed to meet with him. It would be at a secret location, and he was to go alone.
Cheng Juan was a little surprised when he saw the notification.
He had been curious about Lone Wolf for a long time.
At that time, he hadn’t amassed enough power, but Lone Wolf, Giant Crocodile, and Slag Dragon from 129 helped him with a small situation.
Those against Giant Crocodile were coincidentally Cheng Juan’s enemies.
It was a pity that after that time, the other party rarely appeared and irregularly accepted jobs.
After that, he returned back to Yun Cheng to recuperate.
At that time, he paid fifty times the usual price for Lone Wolf to gather information about the disappearance of Hao Dui in Ninghai Town.
If Lone Wolf was willing, he would definitely not be short of money.
Surprisingly, it had been more than a year since Lone Wolf’s disappearance. He also decided to spend money like it was nothing in hopes of contacting him. Who knew…
The other party actually accepted his order.
At that time, he was really interested in Lone Wolf and wanted to investigate him.
After all, he might be truly alone in real life.
It was just that… Qin Ran’s appearance disrupted his plan. He probably knew that she wanted to look for something in his school doctor’s office. He didn’t say anything and personally stayed behind because he wanted to know which force was trying to approach him.
Maybe this girl was interested in him.
He simply stayed at the school doctor’s office.
But who knew…
After staying for some more time, he became interested in her.
After that, he started to lose interest in Lone Wolf.
He spent more time with her instead of looking for Lone Wolf.
This time when Cheng Tu suggested contacting 129’s Lone Wolf, Cheng Juan took it with a grain of salt. If Beijing really ended up in a mess, he would just take Qin Ran and the others back to their base camp at Continent F.
Unexpectedly, this Lone Wolf who was always elusive decided to appear.
Regardless of the reason, Cheng Juan was determined to meet him.
“Boss?” Cheng Shui asked again. Seeing that Cheng Juan was silent, he couldn’t help but call him again.
Cheng Juan acknowledged him and came back to reality. “I have something to do.”
He threw his phone casually on the table.
Seeing his expression, Cheng Shui, Cheng Jin, and the others stood up and looked at him seriously. “Boss, tell us about it.”
“Lone Wolf wants to meet me at 9 am tomorrow for a detailed discussion.” Cheng Juan lazily put his legs together and raised his eyebrow.
Cheng Shui paused while pushing up his glasses. He raised his head and said, “Boss, can you say that again?”
“Master Juan explained that he will meet Lone Wolf tomorrow at 9 am…” Cheng Mu’s voice trailed off, and he slowly turned to look at Cheng Juan.
…
Cheng Juan walked out of the study at 9 pm.
He stopped at Qin Ran’s door with a cigarette in his hand. After he heard nothing from her room for 10 minutes, he guessed that she was asleep.
He didn’t knock on the door as well.
Just as he was about to leave, the door was opened.
He paused and looked inside. Qin Ran was wearing pajamas. Her face looked energetic, and she looked like she didn’t sleep as her eyes were bloodshot.
“Can’t sleep?” Cheng Juan glanced at her and asked.
Qin Ran scratched her hair. “Annoying.”
Cheng Juan thought that she was annoyed at the situation involving the Xu family and the Yunguang Consortium. He lowered his head and leaned over. His clear breath on her body became more obvious as he whispered in her ear, “It’s okay, I will solve it.”
Qin Ran only felt that it was an endless loop.
Unless she really disappeared, it would be difficult to solve.
After hearing what he said, she suddenly calmed down and reached out to hug him. She rested her head on his shoulder and said in a muffled voice, “You said it.”
“Of course.” Cheng Juan smiled and hugged her. He stared at the starlight through the window and said calmly, “I really want to see who doesn’t dare to take action.”
Qin Ran didn’t dare to respond.
She feared that if she listed her enemies, Cheng Shui and the others would collapse.
She was more afraid that Cheng Juan would find out about her past.
She thought about it for a while before muttering, “I will tell you something tomorrow night.”
Cheng Juan also wanted to ask her about her visit to the school doctor’s office at the start and didn’t ask her much about it. He only smiled and said, “Ok.”
…
The next day.
Qin Ran got up very early.
When she woke up, Cheng Juan was already up.
Not only was Cheng Juan awake, everyone else was at the dining table.
These people were either not back home, sleeping till late, or were busy like Cheng Jin.
Everyone had a time that they usually woke up at, and the chef took notes.
Today resembled a ritual as everyone got up at the same time and sat together at the dining table.
Cheng Mu picked up some bread from the kitchen expressionlessly and turned to look at the exquisite breakfast on Cheng Shui’s plate. He couldn’t help but ask the chef, “I’m only getting bread today?”
“Mr. Cheng Mu, your breakfast has been taken by Mr. Cheng Jin,” the chef replied indifferently.
What comes around goes around.
Cheng Mu silently returned to his seat. Qin Ran also sat at the dining table.
“You’re up so early?” Cheng Juan handed Qin Ran her breakfast, surprised that she was awake so early.
Qin Ran yawned lazily. She drank some milk before acknowledging him. “I’m going out later to meet someone.”
“What a coincidence. Boss is going to meet someone later too.” Cheng Shui smiled.
