Nan Chen wanted the remaining scenes to be filmed elsewhere, but Ning Ran insisted to head to Livingsfill to film the remaining scenes before returning to Flower City one week later.

After Ding Fei provided the photo of the woman, Qiao Zhan worked diligently to track her down. As soon as Ning Ran returned to Flower City, Qiao Zhan wasted no time in bringing her to meet the woman.

Ning Ran was anxious on the way there as she had no idea whether the woman knew about the USB.

If the woman had no idea about the USB, then the clue would be of no use.

Judging from the current situation, her mother's belongings could very well be connected to her background and her past.

“Chief Qiao, can you tell me about that person?” Ning Ran turned around to ask Qiao Zhan.

Qiao Zhan flashed a shy smile. “Please, don't call me 'Chief Qiao,' Madam. My title is only used to intimidate others, so calling me that makes me feel self-conscious. Instead, you can just call me by my name as it feels more casual. But when we're around Jiang Zhe, please call me 'Chief Qiao', I can't let him outrank me.”

Ning Ran laughed. “Sure, I'll call you 'Ah Qiao' from now on. And please, don't call me 'Madam', just use my name.”

“I can't do that. You can call me 'Qiao Zhan', but I can't call you 'Ning Ran'.” Qiao Zhan waved his hands hastily.

“Why not? Didn't you just call my name?”

“Oh, I was just following your words. I wasn't calling you 'Ning Ran' for real—”

“Look, you repeated my name again,” Ning Ran cut in cheerfully.

Qiao Zhan shook his head shyly. “If you don't like me calling you 'Madam,' I shall address you as 'Ms. Ning'.”

“Whatever you like. Tell me about that person.”
