From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 687: 354 Astonishing the World (Twelve More)

Zhao Qin frowned, the voice sounded so familiar.

As everyone was still stunned, a group of well-trained men in black rushed in. They were divided into two teams, entering one after another from the left and right, with eight people on each side. After entering, they stood in their designated positions and turned simultaneously.

Each of them stood up straight with a fierce expression on their faces, scaring the timid ones to make a sound.

Someone finally noticed the symbol on their left arms and screamed, “Qinglong Association?”

“Tap, tap, tap,” the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor echoed clearly in everyone’s ears.

The atmosphere at the scene was suffocating.

Everyone’s hearts were raised by the sound of the slow footsteps.

Jiang Chunlan’s eyes suddenly darkened as she turned to look at the entrance.

When Bo Yuxun heard the three words “Qinglong Association,” her pupils shrank suddenly, and she too turned to look at the entrance.

Qu Feitai clenched his fists, eyes locked on the entrance.

Everyone turned their attention to the entrance at the same time.

Accompanied by the approaching footsteps, a man in a suit walked in slowly.

His figure was tall and straight, like polished jade and sleek bamboo; much like the ancient aristocratic young masters, his every movement was gentle and graceful.

With handsome brows and eyes, his demeanor was like jade.

His peach blossom eyes seemed to smile yet not, indulging in both thin and deep sentiment.

Everyone was astonished, feeling a chill in their hearts subconsciously.

Wasn’t this the famous Master Xiao?

Zhu Xiangxiang stared blankly at the approaching man, “Master Xiao…?”

Zhu Shaodan was very surprised. Why would Master Xiao come here? The Zhus had not even sent him an invitation.

Zhao Qin stepped forward and asked, “Cousin, why are you here?”

Her cousin had never attended such events, and no one dared to send him invitations.

Because if you couldn’t afford to offend him, it was better to avoid him.

Ran Tengxiao did not respond to Zhao Qin, surveying the entire room with his eyes. Wherever his gaze landed, it sent shivers up everyone’s spines.

“Who just said my Ran family’s young miss is a bastard? Come out.” He finally spoke.

Ran family’s young miss?

Everyone looked at Zhao Qin, wasn’t she the young miss of the Ran family? Although she had the last name Zhao, everyone knew that when it came to the young miss of the Ran family, she was undoubtedly the one.

Moreover, Zhu Xiangxiang had just ridiculed Ming Jing as a bastard, what did it have to do with Zhao Qin?

Could it be that Master Xiao had heard it wrong and thought people were bullying his cousin?

Zhao Qin furrowed her brows, feeling that something was not quite right. She stepped out and said, “Cousin, no one scolded me, you’ve got it wrong.”

Ran Tengxiao hooked his lips, a cold smile on his face: “You’re surnamed Zhao, are you a member of the Ran family?”

His words were like a slap in her face, leaving Zhao Qin’s cheeks burning with humiliation.

“Cousin… what do you mean by that?” She asked hesitantly.

Suddenly, she realized something and turned to look at Ming Jing incredulously.

“Are you referring to Ming Jing?” Zhao Qin’s voice trembled.

Zhao Qin’s words were like a bomb, the room exploded with shock.

Zhu Xiangxiang doubted her own ears, “That’s impossible.”

How could Ming Jing be the young miss of the Ran family?

Could it be that she was the illegitimate daughter of Ran Tengxiao’s father, who had been lost outside the family?

Upon this realization, Zhu Xiangxiang felt like vomiting blood.

Tang Wan spoke in a low voice, “What a coincidence. If she’s really the young miss of the Ran family, we are done for!”

Tang Wan’s legs trembled. This was the Ran family after all, and the famous Master Xiao could kill a person as easily as killing an ant.

She now regretted following Zhu Xiangxiang and getting involved in this mess. Not only did she not get any benefits, but she also offended the Rans.

No, she wasn’t even worthy of offending the Rans.

Jiang Chunlan squinted her eyes slightly, “Mr. Ran, what do you mean? Ming Jing is your family’s young miss? Are you mistaken?”

Her heart sank as she gritted her teeth and understood everything.

So the lowly bastard Ran Bowen left behind was Ming Jing.

Jiang Chunlan took a deep breath to suppress the anger in her chest and glanced at Ming Jing.

Even now, she still appeared calm.

It turned out that tonight’s drama was not to clear Ming Xin’s name, but to pave the way for Ming Jing’s return to the Ran family.

Even at such a young age, she had such deep and intricate plans, and Jiang Chunlan hadn’t detected any of it.

Well, well, well.

Ran Bowen, you indeed have a capable daughter.

Ming Xin subconsciously grabbed Ming Jing’s hand, even though she didn’t know what was going on. However, she would always unconditionally believe in Ming Jing.

Ming Jing gently patted her hand and then stroked the heads of Ming Chen and Ming Ti, “Don’t be scared, your second sister will never leave you.”

Qu Feitai frowned, ‘Was Ming Jing a member of the Ran family? Was she Ran Tengxiao’s sister?’

Almost everyone had the same thoughts.

Jiang Jinchen suddenly had a bad premonition. He looked at Jiang Chunlan, and as if sensing his gaze, she turned to look at him.
