Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered - Chapter 183
Chapter 183: God Qin! Over Here!
This game was different from other games and had the Rookie, Master, Guru, and Supreme levels.
It was not difficult for five-player or two-player teams to reach the Supreme level with skills and cooperation.
However, it was difficult for a solo-player to reach the Supreme level because the teammate’s cooperation was unpredictable. Unless the solo-player could hard-carry the team, it was difficult to reach the Supreme level.
Even as a professional team, very few could really hard-carry the team.
Only Yi Jiming and Yang Fei could do it in OST. But Yi Jiming was unstable, and only Yang Fei was relatively stable.
OST’s signature Sun God was not undeserving of his reputation; he had enough ability to be recognized as the great God.
Therefore, solo-players who could attain nine stars in the Supreme level were truly regarded as great Gods.
Qin Ran nodded and looked down silently. She really felt that nine stars in the Supreme level… was not that many…
“But although she can operate as the great God, she doesn’t cooperate well with me.” Lu Zhaoying touched his head and looked at Qin Ran with a smile. “You have good consciousness, accurate throwing skills, and good predictability. No wonder Sun God came to find you. But if only your hand speed was a little stronger and you could cause an explosion, then you can directly use the attack cards.”
Lu Zhaoying felt like it was such a big pity.
When Qin Ran played with him, she always used the three basic cards that were meant to be auxiliary. She didn’t need much hand speed and had a good operation.
In the beginning, her teammates thought Qin Ran was a b*tch who relied on others, and they would even curse and scold her.
But generally, in the middle of the game, they would come crying to Qin Ran to ask for milk!
After playing a game, some people would even shamelessly invite her to another game, but Lu Zhaoying would reject them ruthlessly.
Lu Zhaoying somewhat understood why Sun God would find Qin Ran to play with. Having her around indeed made it stable, and she was a teammate worth supporting.
Now, the game was famous for players who focused on attack, so the auxiliary players could not break out and still had to carry the blame.
Furthermore, auxiliary players had one of the biggest shortcomings. If the matched attack teammate was not good, the game was basically over.
After all… the auxiliary cards did not have attack and could not hard-carry.
“But if the three of us play together, we will definitely be invincible.” Lu Zhaoying finally patted Qin Ran’s shoulder and raised an eyebrow.
Qin Ran glanced sideways at him and smiled lazily without replying.

In the ward, Chen Shulan was very happy to see several young people.
Her spirit had improved a lot and her mental state had been very good recently too.
“Are you going to Devil City?” Chen Shulan was surprised and asked subconsciously, “When are you coming back?”
Qin Ran calculated the time. “Probably two to three days later? Maybe longer, I’m not sure.”
Qin Ran was not sure how long Gu Xichi would take.
“Ok.” Chen Shulan nodded and carefully told her with a smile, “Come back early.”
Chen Shulan rarely said such things.
It seemed to carry a deep meaning.
Qin Ran was generally unwilling to listen.
She couldn’t help but feel irritable after hearing it. Turning her head to the side, she pursed her lips and did not reply.
Chen Shulan shook her head and smiled.
“Probably Tuesday.” Cheng Juan glanced at Qin Ran, laughed, and said in a gentle voice to Chen Shulan.
Cheng Juan and Gu Xichi had basically joined hands in regards to the report.
Although he was not dedicated to virology, he could still estimate the time.
He also knew that Qin Ran was going to Devil City for Gu Xichi instead of Yang Fei.
Cheng Juan coughed and glanced at Qin Ran after speaking.
Qin Ran thought for a while and then said slowly to Chen Shulan, “Yes, I’ll come back on Tuesday.”
“Ok.” Chen Shulan froze for a long while before reacting. She stared at the two of them thoughtfully.
At five o’clock, Qin Ran and the rest of them went to catch their plane.
Before they left, Chen Shulan said she wanted to have a good chat with Cheng Juan.
Qin Ran pressed her temple. “No, grandma, what do you want to talk about?”
Chen Shulan looked calmly at her, then reached out to pick up the glass and said in a soft voice, “I find this handsome man very pleasant to look at, is that ok?”
Fine.
Qin Ran nodded, put her hand in her pocket, and slowly went out with Cheng Mu and Lu Zhaoying.
She waited until the door was closed.
Chen Shulan put down the cup and looked at Cheng Juan, her slightly muddy eyes vigorous and inquiring. “Did you know Ran Ran before?”
“I don’t think so?” Cheng Juan put his fingers on the armrest and thought for a moment.
“Really?” Chen Shulan squinted slightly and then nodded again. “Forget it. Then I will ask you this, what do you think about our Ran Ran?”
There was a stunned expression on Cheng Juan’s usually calm face.
“I’m almost there,” Chen Shulan did not wait for him to answer and said in a calm voice. “I have been waiting for this day since a few months ago, but Ran Ran has been dragging my life with various methods. I thought to myself, what would she do if I were to die? Would she be alone forever? Hence, I dragged on my old life.
“Ran Ran is stubborn and tenacious. Perhaps she knew I would not be able to live long, so she took the initiative to contact her mother, and then came to Yun Cheng with me.” Chen Shulan’s voice sounded far away. “Her mother and her aunt are here.
“She gave up studying in Beijing for me and contained her temper to make me happy and comfortable until the end.” At this point, Chen Shulan closed her eyes and clenched her fingers. She almost choked and found it difficult to open her mouth. “I’m just a burden to her.
“I kept anticipating my passing before, but I was afraid that she would be alone. With her temperament, without me, she will end up ruining herself like her grandpa…”
“No.” Cheng Juan picked up Chen Shulan’s cup, poured more warm water, and lowered his eyebrows. “You taught her very well.”
Cheng Juan saw this from the last time she suffered a hand injury; she was a messy person who lived a messy life.
Cheng Juan was somewhat glad that Chen Shulan had been in charge of Qin Ran. If it had been Ning Qing or any other people, nobody knew what would happen.
A genius and a madman were of opposite poles, but it only took an instant to become one from the other.
If the line was crossed, one would be a madman; if it was not, one would be a genius.
“I think Xiao Gu is very good.” Chen Shulan smiled. She glanced at Cheng Juan and lowered her head to take a sip of water. “Do you know Xiao Gu? He’s a very good friend of Ran Ran’s. She even let him stay in our house before. I plan to ask him to take care of Ran Ran in the future, what do you think?”
Chen Shulan paused and looked up at Cheng Juan. Cheng Juan’s eyes were drooping down as if he was seriously thinking about this possibility.
He couldn’t help but take out a cigarette and clear his throat before replying, “I know him. Gu Xichi, right? There are a lot of people chasing after him, so he cannot even take care of himself.”
Cheng Juan paused again. “She’s going to Beijing to study in the future?”
Chen Shulan looked up quietly. “Of course, Master Wei is in Beijing.”
Cheng Juan smiled and said calmly, “My family in Beijing sounds more possible.”

Outside, Qin Ran, Lu Zhaoying, and the others waited in the corridor for twenty minutes.
Only then did Cheng Juan open the door.
Qin Ran glanced at him, but he was looking down expressionlessly.
Lu Zhaoying couldn’t help but ask, “What secrets did Qin Ran’s grandma tell you? Why was she so mysterious?”
The most important thing was: why did it take so long?
Cheng Juan looked up and glanced at Lu Zhaoying before saying lightly, “She just said a few words. Let’s go.”
“Fine.” Lu Zhaoying knew that Qin Ran’s grandma was biased to good-looking people.
He was a little convinced and did not speak further.
Qin Ran looked at him sideways and frowned slightly, not convinced by Cheng Juan’s perfunctory remark. “Why would my grandma talk to you casually for twenty minutes?”
This would not be the case even if she favored good-looking people.
“It was not all that pure. She told me to look after you and stop you from making trouble in Devil City.” Cheng Juan put his hand in his pocket, lowered his voice, and chuckled. “If you don’t believe, you can ask your grandma.”
He was so fearless.
Qin Ran actually thought that it might really be possible.
They went to the airport.
The plane was at seven o’clock. If they were not late, they could even catch OST’s first game at 10:30 PM.
When they reached the airport, it was already six o’clock.
Jiang Dongye wore a scarf and was already waiting for them. He saw them approaching and quickly waved his hand. “Master Juan, Miss Qin, over here!”
Cheng Mu was speechless.
He had wondered why he had not seen Jiang Dongye all day; it turned out he had already been waiting here like a good dog!
“Miss Qin, Master Juan, where are your ID cards? I’ll help you get your boarding pass.” Jiang Dongye took off his scarf and hung it around his neck casually. He smiled warmly and asked, “Miss Qin, is your backpack heavy? I will carry it for you.”
He reached out and tried to help Qin Ran with her backpack.
But Qin Ran turned sideways and avoided him.
There was something in her backpack, so she glanced at Jiang Dongye and rejected him very coldly. “It’s not heavy.”
Her expression was clear.
“How could it not be heavy…” Jiang Dongye started.
Cheng Juan, who had not spoken yet, glanced at him, causing Jiang Dongye to almost bite his own tongue. He looked at Qin Ran’s small black backpack regretfully. “Okay, it seems pretty light.”
He took Qin Ran’s and Cheng Juan’s ID cards and went to get their boarding passes.
There were many people in the queue, so Cheng Juan gave their boarding passes to Jiang Dongye very generously.
Jiang Dongye excitedly took their ID cards and queued to get their boarding passes.
Lu Zhaoying was speechless at not receiving this treatment.
Cheng Mu wanted this god-level treatment and was also speechless.
The two very miserably went to line up with their ID cards.
Cheng Juan watched as they walked away before lowering his head. “Actually, you can talk to Gu Xichi about Jiang Dongye. They cannot go on like this forever.”
He was tired in their place.
Qin Ran wore her sweater hat and was looking down at her phone. She did not raise her head and asked simply, “Do they have other grudges?”
“A little bit,” Cheng Juan squinted and said casually. “If you explain clearly to Gu Xichi, he might be willing to meet Jiang Dongye. After all, it was also very miserable to be chased by him in the Middle East, and he cannot possibly be on the edge all the time, right? You also know how stubborn Jiang Dongye is.”
Qin Ran nodded and thought he sounded reasonable.
Cheng Juan saw that she was relaxed and then looked up to glance at Jiang Dongye in satisfaction.
This person was really annoying.
**
The plane was on time and they arrived at Devil City at 9 PM.
Outside the airport, there was a limousine waiting for them. It brought them directly to the sports center to watch the game.
At this time, they could still catch OST’s first game.
The ticket was given directly to Qin Ran by Yang Fei. She had four tickets and Jiang Dongye was left out.
Cheng Mu actually wanted to watch the game. He also played the game and was even more powerful than Jiang Dongye, but after glancing at him, he chose to give in and let Jiang Dongye go.
“Good brother.” Jiang Dongye patted Cheng Mu on the shoulder and smiled, thinking that he was very initiative. “I’ll ask your goddess out for a meal once we get back.”
Cheng Mu was suddenly energized. “Thank you, Young Master Jiang!”
The four of them arrived at the sports center.
Yang Fei had left the first row for Qin Ran, and it was even on the far left.
Most of the people there were fans of OST. There were both male and female fans, and their popularity was even comparable to the concert scenes of some singers.
This showed Yang Fei’s popularity.
It was not difficult to understand. Yang Fei was a good player and he was also the first person to play with three God cards. He was the only player in the domestic team to go abroad.
He had fans abroad and domestically.
“This is the first time I sat in the first row!” Lu Zhaoying first said a few words to Qin Ran in excitement and then controlled himself to focus on the game.
The winter game was eight points against four. OST’s score was high and they only had to play against two teams. Today, they were fighting against a domestic team.
They would fight with the team from Country H at 7 PM on Sunday evening.
OST was very low-key tonight and only took out the Nuwa card once. One of OST’s main attackers, Yan Yan, made a midfield mistake.
However, it was not difficult for Yang Fei and Yi Jiming to use their skills to recover their team’s losses.
The two of them were extremely amped-up.
The domestic team did not lose badly, and there was still one card alive at the end.
“Yan is in a bad state today.” Yan was a new member of OST. Much of the limelight was on him and it almost surpassed that of Yi Jiming. Lu Zhaoying frowned.
“He’s acting.” Cheng Juan watched the game lightly and glanced at Lu Zhaoying.
Acting, the deliberate use of all means in the game to lose to someone from the same team.
Most people would not be able to identify an actor with high means.
Lu Zhaoying touched his ear studs and was very determined. “Impossible.”
After the game, Qin Ran also stood up slowly. She heard their conversation and squinted silently.
Jiang Dongye watched the whole game groggily.
He waited until the show was over before standing up.
“Miss Qin, let’s go later. There are too many people here, you should not squeeze with them.” Jiang Dongye very considerately helped them block the people.
However, they were closest to the stage, so it was unnecessary to block them.
Qin Ran put her hat on and followed slowly behind Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan did not care if Jiang Dongye opened a path for him. He lazily leaned against a row of chairs, and when most of the people had left, he walked away slowly.
Jiang Dongye, who had tried so hard to express himself, was speechless.
The four of them had yet to eat. Jiang Dongye had already booked a restaurant, but Lu Zhaoying was reluctant to go and murmured, “Do you think we can still meet Sun God? They must have gone for supper as well.”
The other three ignored him and exited the venue.
A black van was parked across the road.
Yi Jiming took off the team’s hat from the top of his blond hair and shouted radiantly when he saw Qin Ran and the others coming out, “Over here! God Qin! Over here!”
