She originally had some affection for the man in front of her, but it was completely destroyed by him chatting her up like this.
The crows in the world are indeed as black as they are. When I see a beautiful woman, I can't help but strike up a conversation with her.
Her face immediately fell. At this moment, she found that his hand was still on her waist, and she quickly shook him off.
The voice also became unfriendly, "You don't need to know."
Qin Mingze was obviously choked. It was so spicy. He couldn't help but touch his cheek. His appearance had declined? Was he rejected for chatting up? It was so shameless!
Qiao Ran turned around, not wanting to get into more trouble with the person in front of him.
She noticed that the person who had been following her had quietly left due to the appearance of the man in front of her, so she was safe now.
"Wait, miss. At least tell me your name. I saved you just now. You can't burn bridges by crossing the river." Qin Mingze said dissatisfied. He had never been treated with such contempt by a woman.
He reached out to grab her arm and stop her from leaving.
Qiao Ran had already taken precautions and easily avoided it, leaving him with a chance.
Qin Mingze looked at her with wide eyes, "Have you ever practiced karate? Once or twice. It seems that I was worried about you just now. You can obviously get rid of the people who are following you."
Qiao Ran's eyes tightened and his expression became dangerous, "How do you know someone is following me? Could it be related to you?"
"Hey, don't slander me. It's absolutely not true! I obviously saved you, so don't retaliate." Qin Mingze immediately retorted.
"It's too stingy for you to talk about a little kindness all the time." Qiao Ran felt speechless. He just helped her, and if he didn't help her, she would fall down at most. It's such a big deal, it's worth talking about all the time.
On the lips?
"Hey, I have a clear sense of grudges. How can I be stingy?" Qin Mingze smiled, "I just want to know who you are. This is not too much to ask for?"
Qiao Ran opened his bag and took out several hundred-dollar bills in front of him.
In his shocked expression, he stuffed it into his chest and the collar of his suit.
"Since the grudges are clear, let's settle the account. Thank you for helping me with this money just now. Can you count it, is it enough?" Qiao Ran gave him a cold look, "If it's not enough, I still have it here."
After she finished speaking, she didn't want to get too entangled.
Turn around and leave directly.
Only Qin Mingze was left messy in the wind.
On his chest, the collar of his suit, which was not a pocket after all, the hundred-dollar bills slipped out of his suit one by one and fell to the ground. They flew forward with the cold winter wind.
So unique! Simply awesome!
He was sent away with money by a woman!
He has never met a woman with such personality, and he must know who she is.
Qiao Ran finally got rid of the trouble. She hurried downstairs to make sure no one was following her.
She drove away quickly.
On the way, she received a call from Zuo Chenye.
"Hey, did you get something? Is everything okay?" Zuo Chenye asked with concern.
"Well, I just got it. It's okay, everything went well." Qiao Ran skipped the intermediate process, "I'll come over now, it will take about half an hour."
"Well. I've been here for a while. Please be safe on the road."
"Okay." Qiao Ran hung up the phone and concentrated on driving.
She drove very fast, and when she arrived at the Qin family base, it only took half an hour.
The Qin family base is located in a mountain col, with an above-ground entrance that is very hidden. The rest is underground.
This was not the first time Qiao Ran had seen this kind of secret base. The land project she took over in the capital city, the land shared by the Xia family and Zuo Chenye, also had a secret base on it, which was deep underground. It was the same as the Qin family base.
Somewhat similar, even deeper than here, she once prepared a complete security design plan.
Entering from the entrance, there is a staircase going down, which is very deep and long.
When you reach the bottom, there is a circular open space with a fire door in front of you.
As if it knew she had arrived, the fire door opened automatically when she landed.
Qiao Ran looked both ways and walked in.
The space inside was much larger than she had imagined. When she looked around, it was several hundred square meters. It was very cleanly decorated. The floors and walls were covered with diatom fire-retardant paint. The bathrooms were all integrated. The furniture was all gray and white.
The most important thing is that there is a huge sand table model of the terrain of the capital, placed in the center.
Qin Nianzhen was already waiting for Qiao Ran. After seeing her, he said, "Qiao Ran, I just heard what happened from Chen Ye. I can probably guess what is going on with Yu Chengxian."
"Mom. What on earth does he want to do?"
"Li Nanyuan actually does not have a good relationship with the Xia family. That is why the Xia family has not handed over military power for a long time. It is because they want to wait for the next democratically elected president to succeed before handing over military power. The current president Li Nanyuan is too ambitious. I
I guess he may have reached some kind of agreement with Yu Chengxian so that he could be re-elected," Qin Niazhen said.
Qiao Ran frowned, "In exchange, what can Yu Chengxian get?"
"Recognizing his current legal status should be what Yu Chengxian wants. He must have known about An Yunxi's arrest, so he made plans in advance. Or, he had prepared this move earlier."
"We have recognized Yu Chengxian's military power, what should we do?" Qiao Ran didn't quite understand the relationship.
"Divide and conquer." Qin Nianzhen's eyes flashed, "I recall my close associates and the old members of the Xia family, and you will be the commander. From now on, the warlords will be divided into two and they will live together in peace."
"Of course, it's just a peaceful coexistence on the surface. Everyone can appear in public and do their own thing. In fact, sooner or later, there will still be a merger. One party must win before this matter can end." Qin Ninzhen added.
"Me? I am the commander? I..." Qiao Ran wanted to say that she had never been exposed to warlord affairs, how could she be the commander?
Zuo Chenye came over and said, "You are the legitimate heir of the Xia family. According to the Xia family's traditional inheritance system, only you can be the commander-in-chief to convince everyone. If you don't come forward, it won't work as long as our mother is here."
Zuo Chenye called Qin Nianzhen "Mom" smoothly.
Qiao Ran opened his lips and was speechless for a moment.
Our mother... Zuo Chenye's scream was so smooth and affectionate that she had no way to refute.
At this time, the door to the base opened again.
Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.
"Auntie, I'm back. I've bought everything you asked for."
Qiao Ran frowned, why was this voice so familiar? It seemed like he had heard it somewhere before, and it happened just now.
