Chapter 195: Chapter 195 Christmas Date (6)
"Then just follow me." Seeing Qin Jiran’s troubled expression, Su Yanyi no longer troubled him and thought of a nice place to go; it might be fun to take Jiran there.
"Okay!" Qin Jiran became happy, and the pace of his eating sped up considerably.
After the meal, Qin Jiran drove while Su Yanyi gave directions. About half an hour later, they arrived at the place Su Yanyi had specified—Wind Shadow Shooting Club. From the outside, dozens of luxury cars were parked in the lot. It was not too crowded but still opulent enough to reveal that it was of not a low grade.
Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi both got out of the car, and immediately, a valet approached to serve them. They followed the valet into the lobby, where a staff member came up to greet them. But just as the staff member was about to say something, Su Yanyi said, "My last name is Su, have your Manager Su come over."
If these two sentences were taken out separately, they wouldn’t be given too much attention, but said together, their meaning deepened.
The Wind Shadow Shooting Club was a property under the Su’s name, and its general manager also happened to be surnamed Su—a distant relative of the Su family. Now, Su Yanyi also claimed the Su surname, and piecing that together, the staff member immediately contacted their manager.
Su Yanyi took Qin Jiran to sit down in the club’s spacious lobby. There were very few people—mostly just staff—and rarely a hint of customers, which naturally made it seem quiet. No one paid much attention to them. However, the staff members would occasionally steal glances at them, unsure whether they recognized the two.
By now, Qin Jiran was guessing as well, and he asked, "Is this a Su family business?"
"Yes, and it’s not just a business." Since Su Yanyi had brought Qin Jiran here, she had no intention of hiding anything. In reality, this membership-based shooting club wasn’t just one of Su family’s businesses but also one of their bases in City A. Over the years, it had nurtured many talents for the Su family. Even Old Master Su often came here to act as an instructor, but Su Yanyi had not visited since her marriage, which is why even the front desk staff were unfamiliar with her now.
The Manager Su that Su Yanyi was looking for arrived quickly. He was a man in his forties, seemingly simple and honest, but he was also very capable. On the surface, he was a distant relative of the Su family, but in reality, he was an orphan adopted by the Su’s, a covert power of the family, so to speak, akin to a retainer.
"Miss, you’re here. Why didn’t you give us a heads-up? And this must be your husband. Hello, I am Su Zexing," Su Zexing greeted them with a very simple and honest smile. Although it was clear that he wasn’t as simple as he appeared, it still made a good impression, especially how respectfully he treated Qin Jiran.
"Hello, I am Qin Jiran." Qin Jiran shook hands with Su Zexing. The handshake wasn’t warm, but it wasn’t cold either.
For Su Zexing, Qin Jiran’s reaction was of no concern. In fact, this wasn’t his first time meeting the Su family’s in-laws; it’s just that Qin Jiran wasn’t aware. And Su Zexing was very well-informed about this son-in-law, so he understood his character well.
One of the most important aspects of the Su family’s business is intelligence gathering, and Su Zexing also happens to be the head of City A’s intelligence network. He knew a lot, naturally. However, regardless of how much one knows, there are always oversights, such as missed cues on Qin Jiran’s identity, which led to penalties and extra training for those responsible for that oversight, which was indeed a tough ordeal for them.
"Miss, and son-in-law, Old Master Su is also inside training the youngsters. Would you two like to have a look, or would you like to try something else?" Su Zexing’s words weren’t very clear, because he wasn’t sure how much the son-in-law knew about this base. It wouldn’t be appropriate for him to reveal too much, so he kept his words somewhat veiled. Nevertheless, Su Yanyi understood what he meant.
Training the youngsters meant training those affiliated with the Su family. This was one of the Su family’s secrets that outsiders should not be privy to. Su Zexing’s inquiry was also a way to gauge Qin Jiran’s status within the Su family and whether he had been made privy to their various secrets.
"Let’s go see Grandfather then." Since Su Yanyi had brought Qin Jiran here, she intended to reveal the workings of this place—there was no reason to hide anything.
For Su Yanyi and the Su family members, Qin Jiran was already a part of the family, and the Su’s various secrets were gradually being revealed to him.
