Chapter 595: Even the Big Boss Has to Be Polite to Him
There weren't many good people on Continent F's side.
Giant Crocodile couldn't wait any longer. Given Qin Ran's character, she wouldn't have the patience to chat with them.
Even five minutes was too much if she was talking to someone she wasn't close to.
Giant Crocodile got up and opened the door.
Chang Ning was a straightforward man as well.
Seeing that Giant Crocodile was getting out, he followed and made a call. "Get the guys over here."
After the call, Chang Ning instructed, "Don't get rash. We'll see how the big boss of Continent F handles it first. It's best if all goes well."
"Alright." Giant Crocodile nodded coldly.
He knew where the private room was.
They were already making their way to the fifth private room while talking.
They seemed rather menacing. Cheng Mu, who was squatting outside the private room, sent a message to Cheng Jin and the rest.
He saw Chang Ning first, who was in the lead.
Cheng Mu didn't recognize him, but he did recognize Giant Crocodile. "M-Mr. Giant Crocodile, you..."
"Why didn't you follow your Miss in?" Giant Crocodile knew Cheng Mu as well and asked him about it. He was about to push open the door to the private room.
But before he even made a move, the door was opened from the inside.
It was Cheng Juan who opened the door, and Qin Ran was standing behind him.
Giant Crocodile and Chang Ning didn't manage to react in time.
"Boom, boom—"
Footsteps stormed the hallway.
Soon, they heard Cheng Huo's anxious voice. "Boss, Lone Wolf lied to you. We saw some 129 members downstairs..."
Cheng Huo and the brothers rushed forward.
They looked at Qin Ran, and then at Giant Crocodile and Chang Ning.
Everyone went quiet.
They all had only one thought in mind.
Wasn't Lone Wolf (Boss) here to meet the Continent F's Big boss (Lone Wolf)?
The silence was filled with shock.
Cheng Juan smiled at Giant Crocodile first and said politely, "Mr. Lou, we meet again."
Cheng Juan then turned to Chang Ning and said, "This must be Mr. Chang, then."
Lastly, he bowed and said very courteously, "Thank you all for taking good care of her."
"Ah?" Slag Dragon, who had been thanked for reasons he wasn't sure of, simply said, "It's alright, it's alright..."
Qin Ran cleared her throat. "Boss Chang Ning, let's all talk inside."
Chang Ning nodded and then made a call to inform his subordinates. "You guys don't have to come up anymore."
Giant Crocodile always had a serious look on his face no matter how messy he felt on the inside.
Meanwhile, Slag Dragon kept quiet and just followed them inside.
The few big bosses entered the private room.
Only Cheng Huo, Cheng Jin, and the brothers were left outside.
"Cheng Shui, what did I just see?" Cheng Huo asked expressionlessly.
Cheng Shui didn't say anything. He simply turned to Cheng Mu silently.
Cheng Mu had long figured out what was going on. He got up from his squatting position and looked at them. "Mm, it's exactly what you're seeing."
...
Inside.
Slag Dragon was confused. "No, wait. Great Master... what's going on?"
Besides Slag Dragon, even Chang Ning was a little out of sorts. He downed a cup of tea to calm himself. Then, he turned to look at Qin Ran as calmly as possible. "In that case, I won't have to get involved in the matters in Beijing. Has the Xu family settled the things for tomorrow yet?"
"Mm." Qin Ran nodded.
"That's good, then." Chang Ning had no idea what else he could say. He asked Cheng Juan, "Third Young Master Cheng, the conflict between you and Giant Crocodile..."
"It's all a misunderstanding." Cheng Juan raised a cup to Giant Crocodile.
Giant Crocodile took a sip of his tea with a blank expression.
They talked about the following day's matters and then left as soon as they figured out that Cheng Juan and Qin Ran would still have matters to discuss.
In the car.
"After tomorrow, Beijing will be alright again." Chang Ning smiled easily in the back seat.
How could he not? 129's son-in-law was the big boss in Continent F.
With Qin Ran around, even the big boss of Continent F would have to be polite to him.
Chang Ning raised his chin.
...
The next day.
In the evening.
The Xu family set off together.
Cheng Juan stood at the villa with a stern look on his face. "Bring the men along first, but don't reveal your positions. If you encounter Giant Crocodile's men, don't take action without thinking."
Cheng Tu already knew that Giant Crocodile was a friend, not a foe.
Upon hearing that, they responded, "Yes!"
He took his leave immediately.
"Third Bro, both of you..." Cheng Wenru had been busy with the Cheng family matters, but she knew what was going on in Beijing. Seeing Cheng Juan's attitude now, she furrowed her brows and asked, "I feel like there must be a trick somewhere. Perhaps the Xu family... have something in store for us."
"Sister Cheng, don't worry." Qin Ran comforted her.
She and Cheng Juan didn't stay long.
They went off to meet the Xu family very soon.
Xu Yaoguang looked at Cheng Juan and greeted him as "Master Juan", then kept quiet.
Cheng Juan had lost his position as the Crown Prince of the Cheng family. Few people still addressed him as "Master Juan".
Upon hearing Xu Yaoguang's voice, Cheng Juan raised a brow at him but didn't speak.
This was the first huge transaction between the Xu family and Continent M. There couldn't be any mistakes at all. Otherwise, the Xu family might end up in ruins like the Qin family. That said, the Qin family was starting to find their way now.
The Xu family members were all serious and excited about this.
Only Second Uncle Xu was looking at Qin Ran oddly.
