Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered - Chapter 494

Chapter 494: Heir, 129 Gods Exist

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Having been successfully promoted as an intermediate member of 129, Ouyang Wei had taken root in the Ouyang family.

She made good ties with dozens of forces large and small in Beijing.

Nobody would dare to go against her.

Unfortunately, the Ouyang family’s background was insufficient. Even with Ouyang Wei, they could only temporarily squeeze out the Qin family. Otherwise, the Ouyang family would have moved further up the rungs.

Cheng Juan didn’t speak much, and no one dared to provoke him.

Most people were now talking to Ouyang Wei, and Qin Ran was now no longer the center of attention.

At 9:58 am, Elder Xu walked to the stage with his hands behind his back.

The host first gave a speech to welcome everyone, then talked about the main event today. “Today is the ceremony for Elder Xu’s heir. It’s also the first public appearance of the new heir…”

He talked endlessly.

At her seat, Qin Ran’s face was expressionless. “Did he misunderstand what I meant by simple?”

He even invited a well-known host to liven up the atmosphere?

Not bothered by the other people at the dining table, Cheng Juan poured her a cup of tea. “Don’t be angry. Principal Xu might… really be doing this on purpose.”

Qin Ran glanced at him and took a sip of warm water.

She didn’t reply to him.

Cheng Juan couldn’t help but snigger.

The host handed the microphone to Elder Xu.

Taking the microphone and pushing up his glasses, Elder Xu said in a calm voice, “Please welcome my heir to the stage.”

Everyone at the scene perked up.

Especially the Xu family. Without telling them anything, Elder Xu had chosen the heir directly. Who knew if this heir was actually worthy?

Could the new heir maintain the glory of the Research Institute?

If this matter wasn’t handled well today, and the heir found by Elder Xu wasn’t good enough, it would greatly reduce the prestige of the Xu family’s direct line in the Research Institute.

The Xu family was extremely nervous.

On the stage, Elder Xu’s eyes directly fell on Qin Ran’s table.

Seeing her lowered head and sluggish movements, Elder Xu knew in his heart that just like her grandfather, she was feeling annoyed by the complicated traditions.

But he didn’t feel like he had done anything wrong. If he hadn’t held a big banquet today, nobody would know how serious he was about this new heir.

“Student Qin Ran.” He looked up and calmly added.

Some people had made guesses when they saw Elder Xu looking in Qin Ran’s direction, but they hadn’t believed it. After all… this was the heir of Elder Xu’s Research Institute.

The atmosphere was a little strange now that Elder Xu had directly named his heir.

Everyone’s eyes were fixated on the table.

Cheng Raohan stiffly turned to look at Qin Ran.

As for Second Uncle Xu, he was still worried about whether Elder Xu had found a reliable heir. But in the next second, he was completely frozen in place.

Under countless stares.

Qin Ran stood up and blankly took the stage to accept the prosperous and complicated handover ceremony.

Elder Xu solemnly handed a copy of the seal to her and said in a solemn voice, “The future of the Research Institute rests in your hands now.”

Qin Ran raised her hand slowly.

She initially promised to take over the Research Institute just to investigate her grandfather.

But after experiencing so much, she realized that despite some scheming people in the Research Institute, most of them actually worked hard. Although the national flag of Continent M had beaten the domestic physics community, Qin Ran had felt the persistence of these physicists in just a few days.

This secondary seal wasn’t just a seal, it symbolized responsibility and faith.

Taking a deep breath, she reached out to accept the seal.

“Don’t worry.” Elder Xu solemnly patted her shoulder, his muddy eyes slightly lit up. After a long time, he slowly said, “If the Cheng family and I can’t protect you, then our families don’t have the right to stay in Beijing.”

“Let’s go, I’ll introduce you to some people.”

Qin Ran couldn’t feel his complicated mood and just followed behind him, Xu Yaoguang, and two other persons-in-charge of the Xu family.

They started the toast from the main seat.

“You should be familiar with Old Master Cheng and Principal Zhou, so there’s no need for an introduction. This is the ambassador of our Xu family in Continent M, Mr. Carlo…” Principal Xu solemnly introduced Carlo to Qin Ran.

Mr. Carlo didn’t know much Mandarin and just raised a toast to her.

“Mr. Carlo is a member of the Mas family in Continent M. Master Wei surely knows him. Just remember him first, these forces in Continent M will be important when the Research Institute connects with them,” Principal Xu briefly explained.

They had reached the second seat.

Principal Xu didn’t seem to want to look at Cheng Juan and just politely introduced Ouyang Wei to her. “Ran Ran, this is Miss Ouyang. She’s the next generation heir to the Ouyang family and the backbone of 129. You two are of similar ages and are both extraordinary geniuses. I hope you can get along well in the future.”

Having recovered from the initial shock, Ouyang Wei turned to Principal Xu and only faintly nodded.

She glanced at Qin Ran indifferently.

Her face was emotionless.

Walking away, Principal Xu solemnly whispered to Qin Ran, “Ran Ran, you must be curious why I placed such emphasis on Ouyang Wei.”

She nodded, indeed curious.

She had heard about Ouyang Wei more than a hundred times over and over again. There were so many intermediate members of 129, so why did Jiang Dongye and Cheng Wenru admire her so much?

“Actually, Ouyang Wei herself isn’t very important. The important thing is the people behind her. We fear the 129 people. I’ll explain to you slowly after the banquet.” Principal Xu remained calm.

4

In front of Ouyang Wei, even the elder of the four big families must give her face.

Who with power here didn’t know Chang Ning, the terrorist boss who was in the international trade center?

And Giant Crocodile?

He had even ransacked the Continent M history museum collection that year, and the Interpol had yet to catch him.

He Chen and Slag Dragon were needless to say as well. No one had dug out their current situation.

2

As for Lone Wolf… he had a God-like existence in 129, and others didn’t dare say much.

Any of them had power equal to the four big families in Beijing.

In so many years, Ouyang Wei was the only one who had successfully joined 129 and reached the intermediate level.
