Chapter 21: I’m Not Crazy

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was Aunt Zhang who had spoken.

She had been behind Qin Yu and had raised her eyebrows to look at Qin Ran. She walked a few steps towards her, her voice so sharp that everyone looked over.

Ning Wei knew Qin Ran wanted to get her a chair.

But Aunt Zhang’s gaze was strange. It seemed to send daggers into her, making her feel extremely uncomfortable. Ning Wei pursed her lips and tried to ignore her.

There were sounds of inhalation around them.

The other relatives were envious and surprised.

No one found this unreasonable.

Everyone thought it seemed only obvious.

“My goodness, 580,000? You can pay for the down payment for a house in Yun Cheng with that money!”

“It can probably buy two houses in our town, right?”

“...”

Ning Wei clenched her hands tightly. She took a few steps forward and whispered a little urgently, “Ran Ran, I’m fine...”

Qin Ran looked up.

Then, she laughed and smirked in a cold and bad manner. “580,000? That’s such a large amount of money.”

She looked sideways at Aunt Zhang, Ning Qing, and Qin Yu.

The light in the box was dim and it hit her face, making her eyes seem even redder. It was narrowed slightly, dauntless and arrogant as if she was about to break through the horizon.

Her expression was proud, her smile mocking, and her eyes evil.

“Qin Ran, you...” Ning Qing opened her mouth.

She had called her Ran Ran before, but now, she called her Qin Ran.

“What?” Qin Ran paused before slowly reaching out to take the violin. She weighed it in her hands before casually putting it on a table.

She turned, a little irritable and astringent, and kicked the chair to Ning Wei.

“Aunt, you can sit,” she said.

The whole room was very quiet. It was weirdly quiet and everyone’s eyes were on this side.

Ning Wei’s body stiffened, feeling a little uneasy. “That violin...”

Aunt Zhang reacted at this time. “That’s Miss’ violin!”

“Who cares about the violin? She’s here to eat, why did she bring a violin?” Qin Ran licked her lips and smiled. Her eyes seemed redder and, under the not-too-bright light, her eyebrows were drenched in evil spirits. “You’re so annoying. I’ll pay you a hundred violins if it breaks!”

3Qin Ran thought that she had been quite repressed.

It was this Ning Qing and the Qin’s family nanny that was too petty.

Standing at the tip of the pyramid every day to watch people, were they not tired?

No one spoke in the box.

The group of relatives remained silent.

Qin Ran raised her chin and her eyes narrowed slightly. When she saw the waiter passing by the door, she leaned on the table, raised her chin, and snapped her fingers sharply. “Come, serve!”

After dinner, Qin Ran took Ning Wei and Chen Shulan and left first while Ning Qing was still dealing with the relatives.

The relatives had originally come for Ning Qing. They weren’t here to see Chen Shulan, so it was to their favor.

In the room, after Qin Ran left, the atmosphere became active.

Qin Yu smiled, raised her glass, and was extremely elegant. “I apologize for my sister.”

This group of relatives was also a group of elites. They were also clear about Ning Qing not wanting Qin Ran back then.

“Your sister is just like that.” Her aunt immediately waved her hand in disregard and pursed her lips. “At the age of sixteen, she dared to hit someone’s head! I heard that he was sent to the emergency room and the police had to come quickly.”

Qin Ran fought very well and her fights were a common occurrence. Last time, they often saw Qin Ran being injured.

She didn’t do that anymore, but she was still fierce and vicious, which was why this group of relatives were a little afraid of her.

Speaking of this, Ning Qing’s face turned black.

Nobody told her about the police.

“Big niece, this Aunt Zhang...” The aunt saw her expression and immediately turned to the topic while smiling charmingly.

“This is Aunt Zhang. She’s in charge of the Lin family’s daily life.” Ning Qing took a piece of tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth.

The expressions of the group of relatives watching Ning Qing and Qin Yu changed. “You see just how good this family is. They event have servants...”

Qin Yu went out to the bathroom and Aunt Zhang immediately followed her.

Her tone was mocking as she said, “Miss, don’t show your violin to Ms. Qin in the future. When she eventually breaks it, you will be the one distressed. She even said she would give you a hundred more. Can she even afford one?”

Qin Yu bowed her head and washed her hands. She smiled when she heard it.

“Mom, Aunt and Qin Yu are still...” Mu Ying glanced back at the box, hesitant about leaving.

Ning Wei shook her head. Qin Yu and Ning Qing obviously didn’t want to have a relationship with them, but the child still didn’t understand. “Don’t think about it, let’s go home.”

She walked slowly, her footsteps sluggish.

Qin Ran followed behind them with her hands around her chest.

They first took Chen Shulan to the hospital and spoke with her for a while.

Mu Ying kept looking at the facilities of the ward.

After leaving the ward, Qin Ran looked back.

“Ran Ran, tonight...” Ning Wei opened her mouth.

“What was wrong with me tonight? Is Ning Qing a fool?” Under the lantern, the girl’s gaze was fierce and cold. She sneered. “Does she even know that you injured your leg when you dropped out of school to earn money for her school fees?!”

5Ning Wei was silent.

Qin Ran rubbed her temple and her voice softened. “Aunt, I’m sorry. I’m not angry at you.”

“I’m not angry, I know you’re doing it for me. But Ran Ran, your mother isn’t wrong. Your uncle’s hospitalization matters were all handled by her. Ran Ran, your mother doesn’t owe me.” Ning Wei smiled. She reached out and touched Qin Ran’s head, her eyes softening. “Also, I don’t want you to have a bad relationship with your mother. After all, you are mother and daughter.”

1Under the light, Qin Ran’s eyebrows were cold.

Her mother now wanted so badly to sever ties with this group of relatives, and she didn’t even want her daughter anymore. She was afraid that the group of relatives would go to the Lin family to make trouble.

She didn’t want to tell Aunt about these.

“Mu Ying and Mu Nan are coming to First Middle School, right?” Qin Ran took out two thousand yuan from her pocket and handed them to Ning Wei. “You hold it first. When Mu Ying and Mu Nan go to high school, they can’t just learn casually. Don’t let Mu Nan work. This is the money I earned myself, not from my mother.”

“I don’t want the money, you keep it, or I’ll buy you two sets of clothes.” Ning Wei’s eyes fell on Qin Ran’s clothes.

Qin Ran rubbed her teeth. This Aunt was really capable of doing that.

She had transferred 100,000 to her aunt’s account back then.

Now her aunt’s account was almost 110,000.

Not a dime had been spent.

Aunt must be keeping it to use as her dowry.

Qin Ran said nothing and put the money back in her pocket. Two days later when it was the holidays, she would go to her aunt’s rental house to take a look. She could use the money to install an air conditioner, which Ning Wei definitely wouldn’t bear to.

“Right, aunt, are you finished with the medicine?” Qin Ran remembered another thing.

She felt around in her pants pocket.

Then, she took out the white pill bottle that Gu Xichi had given her and passed it to Ning Wei.

At this time, Ning Qing hurried over. The driver of the Lin family had probably sent Qin Yu back since it was Lin Jinxuan who accompanied Ning Qing over.

“Is Mom asleep? What are you talking about?” Ning Qing took a breath and asked.

Mu Ying immediately rushed to speak, “Auntie, grandma is asleep. Cousin is giving my mother medicine.”

Ning Qing frowned. Everything that had happened at night had made her lose her face. In front of her stepson, she deliberately put up with her temper.

But Qin Ran frowned, tilted her head and sneered. It was disdainful, mocking, and arrogant.

Ning Qing seemed to have been triggered, like a balloon that had been pierced and exploded.

Her volume was high. “Qin Ran, are you still like your grandfather, doing drugs every day? Your grandfather already killed himself. Forget about it if you crazy people want to harm yourself, but now you want to harm your aunt?”

Mu Ying and Lin Jinxuan had never heard of these things. They were stunned.

“That’s the medicine that the country has put into experiments,” Qin Ran looked up and said word for word. “I am not crazy.”

At this moment, even Ning Qing looked up a little hesitantly and stared at Qin Ran.
