Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered - Chapter 495
Chapter 495: Return to Continent M
“Okay.” Qin Ran nodded slightly.
No one knew the strength of Giant Crocodile and Chang Ning better than her.
It was actually understandable how fearful people in Beijing were of them.
Elder Xu and the others took Qin Ran around the room.
He was taking her to toast with important people to lay down the basic connections for her.
The banquet lasted a long time.
From 10 am to 2 pm, the party finished eating, drinking, and communicating.
Today, the Xu family and Qin Ran had caused a big hoo-hah.
Everyone in Beijing needed time to digest this at home.
Especially since… no one knew what Elder Xu and Elder Cheng were planning.
Principal Zhou and Zhou Ying walked out of the Xu family’s gate together, stopping by their cars. Principal Zhou glanced up at the sky. “Beijing… I’m afraid it’s going to witness some big changes.”
He wondered if the structure of the four major families was going to be broken. The Xu family had put in so much effort to break into Continent M’s market. Would Beijing’s Research Institute… embark on Continent M again.

In the hall, Qin Ran and Cheng Juan were still there.
Only after sending the other elders off did Principal Xu take Xu Yaoguang and Second Uncle Xu to Qin Ran.
Second Uncle Xu was still in a daze as he stared at her.
He finally understood what Xu Yaoguang meant by “sufficient ability”.
Principal Xu rested his eyes on Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan politely greeted him. “Teacher Xu.”
But he didn’t consciously avoid him.
“Ran Ran.” Principal Xu ignored him and pondered over his words before solemnly turning to her. “Our Xu family has broken into Continent M’s market. Three days later, the Xu family is going there. I hope you can join us.”
“Me?” Qin Ran paused.
She thought about the laboratory and hesitated slightly.
If she made a trip to and fro Continent M in the most difficult period of time, it was certainly a waste of time.
“Go.” Seeing her hesitation, Cheng Juan pursed his lips, coughed slightly, and whispered to her.
He had to handle some business there too.
Qin Ran glanced at him. Continent M was a little dangerous, and she could remain like a shadow there. But in the future, both the Xu family and the Research Institute had to do business with Continent M.
She thought about it and agreed.
Principal Xu heaved a sigh of relief.
After sending them away, Second Uncle Xu, standing beside him, asked, “Are you sure you want Miss Qin to follow them to Continent M?”
Since she had been there before and had the pass, he wasn’t worried about her entrance.
“Yes.” Principal Xu looked away. “Call all those in charge and those above for a meeting.”
The butler beside him nodded and went to inform the Xu family members.
Half an hour later.
At the Xu family meeting.
Everyone above the management level in the Xu family glanced at Principal Xu silently.
Before today, some had planned to join hands to defy Elder Xu’s heirs, but after today…
Even if the heir wasn’t protected by the Cheng family, they couldn’t use ability as a reason to object.
A 21-year-old had won first place in the ICNE in a group with an average age of less than 21. What else was she besides a genius? The only thing that could be found was her qualifications.
Elder Xu was already trying his best to make it up for her.
The Xu family really couldn’t find any loopholes. Most people admired her before that and had wanted to win her over.
But after this incident, winning her over became full of apprehension.
There was no way. Qin Ran was already connected to the Cheng family.
What would happen to the Research Institute after this?
If she really held authority, would the Research Institute belong to the Xu or the Cheng family?
“Today’s meeting is mainly to discuss our second transfer to Continent M. Yaoguang will lead the team. Most of the personnel have already been selected, and they will set off with Mr. Carlo in three days. Qin Ran will be coming along,” Principal Xu sat on the main seat and said in a calm tone.
But he threw a bomb on everyone else.
“Her? No! Absolutely not!” A consul directly stood up and objected. “Elder Xu, I know you value Qin Ran, but why does she have to do this?”
“To gain insights.” Glancing lightly at the speaker, Principal Xu continued, “She’s also Master Wei’s apprentice and has connections with the Mas family.”
“But she has never experienced this before. It’s easy for her to mess up and accidentally anger the Mas family…” Some people were worried.
Elder Xu’s remarks had aroused strong opposition amongst some.
But Principal Xu turned a deaf ear to them.
When he left, the people sitting at the conference table turned to Xu Yaoguang on the left, looking concerned. “Young Master Xu, why don’t you persuade Elder Xu? Forget that he found an outsider to take over the Research Institute, he’s even letting her get in touch with our core transactions. We’re not going to Continent M for leisure travel, nor to participate in competitions. We have to fight at every turn. He…”
First, it was the heir, and now it was the core transactions.
The Xu family really doubted whether Principal Xu had downgraded.
Xu Yaoguang had also thought of these things. After pondering for a while, he stood up. “In these two days, I’ll add another team of guards with passes.”
The Xu family’s atmosphere wasn’t good.
**
At Elder Xu.
He had returned to change his clothes.
Butler Xu stood beside him, hesitant to speak.
“Are you doubting Ran Ran?” Elder Xu glanced at him.
Butler Xu hesitated and nodded. “Yes, Miss Qin…”
She was indeed excellent, but Elder Xu was too concerned and had just handed over the Research Institute to her as well as Continent M’s affairs. This showed his blatant trust in her…
But the human heart wasn’t so simple.
Buttoning his coat, Elder Xu glanced at Butler Xu and lightly said, “Because she’s Ning’er’s granddaughter.”
40 years ago, Ning’er had been forced to withdraw from Continent M.
She had to withdraw to Beijing.
As well as from the Research Institute.
40 years later, her heir had returned to Beijing.
To the Research Institute.
They were once again connected to Continent M.
