Several of Cheng Huo’s codes and positioning were all completed, and she mainly had to check a few positioning and the background information behind it. After entering the address, an area was immediately locked in.

This area..

Wasn’t it at the border?

It looked a little familiar.

Qin Ran had an exceptional talent in digital coding. Despite the huge database system, she could see similarities at a glance.

Her hands paused on the keyboard, but she still continued checking.

She quickly finished typing a bunch of codes and glanced at the engine. Then, she reached out with her right index finger and pressed the “enter” key.

The system data changed complicatedly, and a series of “0” and “1” jumped rapidly, rolling brightly on the screen.

The green progress bar page was still 20%.

With three minutes left, Qin Ran got up and went to pour herself a glass of water leisurely. Instead of sitting back down on the chair, she leaned against it, drinking slowly while looking at the computer page.

Three minutes later, the complicated code disappeared, and the progress bar reached 100%. After several beats, rows of data appeared, covering the black background with white words. However, an IP address in the middle looked very conspicuous—

It began with a familiar number, 192.

It was a familiar domain name.

Qin Ran coughed and placed the glass of water on the table slowly before restarting the engine.

Three minutes later.

It was the same familiar domain name.

Looking up slightly, she put her hand on her forehead and was finally convinced after a while. “Damn.”

**

In Continent M.

Cheng Huo sat next to the computer with his legs opened wide as he lit the cigarette in his hand arrogantly. “Cheng Tu, let me tell you, within half an hour, my sister-in-law will definitely be able to solve it!”

Glancing at him, Cheng Tu reached out to take the document handed over to him. He took a moment to glance at Cheng Huo. “Are you very confident in Miss Qin?”

Out of the Cheng brothers, he was the only one who had never met Qin Ran. When the four of them were discussing her, he could only secretly read through the screen.

Although he had just criticized Cheng Huo, Cheng Tu knew how strong his hacking skills were. After all, when he didn’t get good grades in history in middle school, he had hacked into the teaching system and changed his own grades.

As a member of the Hacker Alliance who was even familiar with the President, Cheng Huo’s computer technology was naturally not weak, so Cheng Tu had come to find him from a thousand miles away.

“Of course. I’ve already told you, her computer skills are as good as our President’s.” Cheng Huo puffed out a smoke ring, confident and assertive.

He was a no-nonsense person.

Cheng Tu also relaxed slightly.

Half an hour passed.

Despite what Cheng Huo said, Qin Ran had yet to send news.

Cheng Tu glanced at him, and he coughed awkwardly. “Something must have happened. Let’s wait for another ten minutes.”

Nothing happened after ten minutes.

Cheng Tu handed the document to his subordinate, staring at Cheng Huo with his amber eyes.

Cheng Huo hadn’t expected this. He sat upright immediately, took out his mobile phone, and dialed an international call to Qin Ran.

When the phone was picked up, Cheng Huo anxiously asked, “Big- Miss Qin, have you found out?”

Qin Ran had already turned off the computer and placed it in her backpack. She said nonchalantly, “No.”

“Huh?” Stunned, Cheng Huo scratched his head in disbelief. “How could it be? You two have similar skills, how could you not find out..”

“No.” Zipping up her backpack, she interrupted him directly and raised her voice slightly. “I said I couldn’t find it.”

“Oh, I see. Then, it’s okay,” Cheng Huo felt startled and immediately responded. “Please return to your work.”

Qin Ran hung up the phone with a “pop.”

She was anxious and impatient.

Staring at the words “The call has ended,” Cheng Huo was simply stupefied. “That’s impossible. She couldn’t find out..”

Cheng Tu also sat upright, frowning slightly. He bit on his cigarette and thought for a while before asking, “Are you sure she’s capable of finding out?”

“Nonsense, she infiltrated the manor system under my nose.” Cheng Huo glanced at him sullenly. He pondered for a while more, then hesitantly said, “.. Could it be that they’re equally skilled?”

Cheng Tu stood up, still frowning. Things had become very difficult. “Who on earth is Giant Crocodile looking for?”

Beijing, Ting Lan Apartment.

Cheng Jin came in with a document. When he saw Cheng Mu holding the shovel, he silently averted his eyes. “Where’s Master Juan?”

“Upstairs in the study room.” Cheng Mu didn’t look at him.

Nodding, Cheng Jin went upstairs with the document to find Cheng Juan.

Cheng Juan’s door was unlocked and half-opened. Faint smoke wafted out, and the closed curtains dimmed the room. Cheng Jin pushed the door open expressionlessly.

“What’s the matter?” Cheng Juan took the remote control and turned off the TV. He walked to the table and snuffed out his cigarette before drawing the curtains. The room instantly became bright.

While talking, he walked to the TV and took out a videotape from the machine.

Cheng Jin glanced at it but couldn’t tell what it was. Hearing Cheng Juan’s question, he frowned. “Take a look.”

He had nothing much to say and just turned on his phone to show him a Weibo page.

It was Qin Yu’s Weibo—

[It took me a month to write this.]

The comments below were basically verbally abusing Qin Ran and comforting Qin Yu.

The top comment was from Dai Ran, expressing that he wouldn’t fear authority and would insist on finding justice for his apprentice. The following comments were all about feeling sorry for and supporting them.

“Pity my little sister! The plagiarizer can die!”

“Why didn’t the Violin Association say anything? It’s already on the hot search? Why are they still protecting the so-called ‘new star’?!”

Of course, there were also comments singing a different tune—

“Actually, after listening to their violin music, am I the only one who thinks that the other person’s emotional expression is better than Qin Yu’s? It’s more explosive and fiery, and there’s also a sense of inexplicable oppression. People who study music would definitely agree!”

However, this comment only had 6,000 likes, which was almost negligible compared to Dai Ran’s 120,000 likes. Furthermore, there were more than 7,000 replies under the comment, all of which were insulting the commenter.

“I won’t listen to it. Beat me to death, and I still won’t listen to plagiarized music!”

“The plagiarized version is better than Qin Yu’s? Are you deaf or blind? Have you ever asked Miss Qin Yu’s 15 million fans?”

“..”

Cheng Jin stared at him in fear and trepidation. He originally thought that Cheng Juan would blow his top after reading it, but no. Instead, his expression just hardened, and his aura became a little more oppressive..

“Should I ask them to bribe the marketing accounts from the blogger’s Weibo?” Cheng Jin asked.

He was Cheng Juan’s trusted aide and extremely good at scheming. If this matter was left to him for development, he could naturally turn the market upside down. But it required some time.

If there was no real evidence, the popularity would naturally disappear after two months.

“No need.” Cheng Juan took the videotape, laptop, and a USB flash drive. He lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice, “Go to the Violin Association.”

Glancing at the videotape in his hand, Cheng Jin picked up the car key thoughtfully and went to the Violin Association with Cheng Juan.

At the same time.

At the Shen family’s house.

Ning Qing was still packing her luggage. Since Qin Yu was living on campus, the Lin family had bought a small apartment near the university town so that Ning Qing could take care of her. The Lin family had spent a lot because of Qin Yu.

But in the process of packing up, Ning Qing occasionally thought of Qin Ran and Qin Hanqiu, who had randomly appeared in Beijing.

Of course, she would never think that Qin Hanqiu had come to Beijing to seek shelter with Qin Ran..

She was her biological daughter, nonetheless, so she understood her as well. Qin Hanqiu’s attitude towards Qin Ran had been more or less the same as hers.. Even if their relationship had eased, it wouldn’t be much better off..

Even if he took 10,000 steps back and Qin Ran forgave him, Qin Hanqiu wouldn’t have the face to stay with her.

Qin Hanqiu wouldn’t have come to Beijing to develop either. No one knew better than Ning Qing how weak and incompetent he was.

Thinking of this, she frowned slightly, unable to figure this out. She opened the closet and took out her clothes to start folding them.

The door was knocked twice, and Lin Wan came in. She looked around the room and asked, “Sister-in-law, have you packed up?”

Still unaccustomed to her attitude, Ning Qing paused and replied, “Almost.”

Lin Wan smiled. She was much more natural than Ning Qing, and she stood in the room, staring at her for a long while before holding out her phone. “Do you know what happened on Weibo?”

“What?” Ning Qing had been busy with Qin Yu’s school affairs these past two days and hadn’t had time to care about other things.

“Rumors of your two daughters’ plagiarism.” Lin Wan scrutinized her expression and dragged her tone. “People are saying that Qin Ran’s original violin music a few days ago was a copy of Yu’er’s.”

“Bam—”
