Chapter 402 - Master Wei’s Registered Disciple

Ah Hai turned on his computer at the table and looked sideways at him.

Qin Ling put down the book, paused for two seconds, and lowered his eyes. “My sister gave it to me.”

Miss Qin?

Ah Hai raised an eyebrow and nodded. He was too anxious to talk to him about the procedure and didn’t really care about the book.

Opening a software on the computer, he warmly looked at Qin Ling and said in a much gentler voice, “The Sixth Master told me that you’re willing to take over the Qin family’s mess. He’ll set off to Continent M in a few days to find you a new teacher. The program isn’t the same as your control code intrusion and requires various data, algorithms, and certain functions… I’ll give you the basic knowledge in two days.”

In the past two days, Ah Hai had realized an important shortcoming of Qin Ling. His computer technology was on the offensive side, so all the programs he wrote were to overcome vulnerabilities in various systems.

He wasn’t much like a programmer…

More like a hacker…

Hackers weren’t the same as programmers.

A programmer was responsible for the development and design, building system-programs, and developing software.

While a hacker…

They weren’t subject to rules at all. He could crack a complete program, add various loopholes, do various cracking programs, and overcome all aspects of the system.

Qin Ling sat across him and listened carefully.

In the evening, Butler Qin returned from the company to watch Qin Ling’s progress with Ah Hai, his eyes full of worry.

“Is there something wrong with the project?” Ah Hai put away the computer and looked at Butler Qin.

This project had been snatched from the Fourth Master’s hands. Although the content had already been completely cracked, Butler Qin only had three programmers, including Ah Hai, and it was too difficult to complete the project in a short period.

“He definitely won’t give up on this project.” Butler Qin shook his head and walked out with sharp eyes. “I’m just worried that he might discover something here…”

During this period, Ah Hai frequently came over to Qin Hanqiu’s side, and it was impossible for the Fourth Master not to harbor doubts.

Ah Hai’s expression changed, and he pursed his lips. “I won’t come tomorrow.”

Butler Qin nodded and sighed. It could only come to this.

He took out his phone to call Qin Xiuchen, hoping that he could speed up the progress.

Qin Xiuchen went to the dressing room to change into his normal clothes after taking the promotional pictures.

“Film Emperor Qin, you have a call.” The assistant waiting for him outside immediately handed him his phone. “It’s from Butler Qin.”

Qin Xiuchen answered the phone while putting on his coat.

Butler Qin asked him about Qin Ling’s teacher.

“What time’s the air ticket for the day after tomorrow?” Qin Xiuchen sat in the back seat, pulling off the scarf around his neck, and massaging his eyebrows.

The manager was looking down at his phone and scanning the hot searches. “10:40 am.”

Qin Xiuchen had accepted a movie offer in Continent M last month.

It wasn’t a simple feat for domestic actors to receive an offer from Continent M, a place where people from all over the world gathered. Qin Xiuchen was considered a top actor in China, with good acting skills and a wide range of dramas, even accepting Continent M’s movie.

It was difficult to enter Continent M, and the movement inside was restricted as well. Especially when crossing the border, they had to work with the crew for a special guide and stamp document.

Qin Xiuchen only knew a few people in Continent M. If he wanted to find a teacher for Qin Ling in such a short time…

It was difficult.

“Why is the news on Tian Xiaoxiao in the Beijing Association so slow today?” The manager sat in his seat and scrolled through Weibo for a long time.

But after reading the comments, he seemed to find many had been deleted…

He could understand that Qin Ran had deleted her posts. After all… she could delete it herself…

But was Tian Xiaoxiao’s posts necessary too?

He clicked on another Weibo.

Dreamlike Life: “I realized that as long as you don’t mention a certain ‘someone,’ the post won’t be deleted. So, I won’t say much about this new actress Tian Xiaoxiao. Everyone, just look at the pictures (Picture) (Picture)”

“Continent M’s movie…” Shocked, the manager clicked on the picture and asked Qin Xiuchen, “Why would you suddenly want to go to Continent M to shoot a movie? Aren’t you afraid that in the time you’re gone, the Fourth Master might deal with Xiao Ling and Butler Qin?”

Qin Xiuchen’s work was usually in the country, and he could guard against the Fourth Master.

“I’m going to find a teacher for Xiao Ling.” Qin Xiuchen put on his blindfold with cold, white fingertips.

The manager nodded slightly. He was probably finding a programming teacher for Qin Ling.

“But it’s also difficult.” The manager turned to the next screenshot, lowered his head, and continued reading the gossip. “We have no acquaintances in Continent M, and it’s difficult to make connections.”

Continent M’s market steadily gathered forces from all over the world and dominated all forces.

It was indeed better to find a teacher over there rather than in China. At least the Fourth Master’s reach didn’t extend there.

“Wait…” The manager stared at the picture and looked up at Qin Xiuchen. “Film Emperor Qin, we might have a connection!”

Film Emperor Qin was originally sleepy.

But he sat upright upon hearing this.

He reached out to remove his blindfold, revealing his dark eyes. “Do you remember what I told you about the Beijing Association at noon?”

Film Emperor Qin threw the blindfold aside.

He nodded.

“Beijing Association’s Master Wei comes in and out of Continent M’s Association all year round and spends almost half of his time there. He’s even a special lecturer of the Continent M’s Association. I think… he must be well-connected there,” the manager took his phone and said rigorously.

“Of course he has connections. Otherwise, even the Xu family wouldn’t have gotten connections in the Continent M market. Maybe his connections… aren’t small either,” Qin Xiuchen lightly said.

He was witty, and even the Fourth Master had to guard against him playing policy schemes.

He wouldn’t have been able to escape the Fourth Master’s plot at a young age and also preserve Butler Qin’s bloodline if it weren’t for his brains.

He hadn’t paid attention to such things as the Beijing Association previously and had only thought of competing with the Fourth Master. But now that his manager mentioned the connection to the Beijing Association, he quickly figured out the key.

The manager smiled. “So, we might have some connections.”

“You mean Master Wei?” Qin Xiuchen leaned back and smiled. “I don’t even know him… And…”

Qin Xiuchen shook his head.

Even if you find Master Wei, why should he help you after meeting you once?

In this age of complicated humans, how could it be so simple?

If the Qin family was still at its peak, Master Wei might do it to give them face, but now…

Qin Xiuchen looked out the window and sighed.

“We don’t, but someone does.” The manager looked at Qin Xiuchen and showed him a picture. “That Tian Xiaoxiao is a registered disciple of Master Wei.”

Qin Xiuchen was stunned.

The manager continued smiling. “Remember that she’s your fan.”

“I’ll think about it.” Qin Xiuchen leaned back in his chair, pursing his lips.

He indeed knew Tian Xiaoxiao, but to ask her about her teacher…

Ting Lan.

Qin Ran sat on the sofa with a computer on her lap.

She was compiling the data records of her experiments in the Physics Department building for the past half a month.

Cheng Juan had helped her organize these records previously and had even calculated a few magnetic field current data for her.

Principal Xu had asked her to write SCI papers. Although she hadn’t agreed, she still kept it in mind. After all, SCI papers were a resource exchange for global staff and held an extremely important position in the academic world.

The graduation evaluation of masters and doctorate degrees had to be based on the impact factor of the published SCI content.

The position evaluation and resource allocation requirements of the Research Institute were also based on these SCI papers.

Thus, the SCI papers had a decisive influence in the research field.

Principal Xu’s project wasn’t clear yet, so she just picked up the SCI paper first. The material was the reactor experiment from last time. She had written down the data and process during the experiment and could sort it out in a week.

Cheng Juan brought in a cup of tea and turned to the back of the sofa instead of sitting down beside her. Seeing that she was writing her paper, he half-leaned on the sofa and slowly said, “My sister said you’re coming to my house next week?”

He was talking about the time Cheng Wenru mentioned Old Master Cheng’s birthday to her.

Without looking back, Qin Ran’s hands paused, and she simply replied, “Yeah.”

Cheng Juan continued drinking tea casually.

Seeing her expression, he put down the teacup, then laid down on the back of the sofa, and approached her ear. He lowered his eyes and sounded quite surprised. “You really agreed?”

Qin Ran turned her face away and ignored him.

But Cheng Juan was reluctant to give up and pestered her until she reluctantly let out a “Yeah”.

Only then did he stand up, continue sitting on the back of the sofa, and take out his phone. He clicked on Cheng Wenru’s phone number and transferred her a sum of money.

Cheng Wenru received the notification.

She sent a “Thank you God of Wealth.JPG” and then sent a question mark.

Cheng Juan never replied to her.

At the same time.

Tian Xiaoxiao just finished her shoot.

Sister Wen handed her a thermos cup and asked her to take a sip of hot water before following her to the lounge room.

The phone in her bag rang a few times, and she reached for it while saying, “It must be the director from the previous crew coming to find you after you bl… Film Emperor Qin??”
