Chapter 546: 219 has returned to her rightful place_3

He lowered his head and didn’t dare to speak at all.

Jiang He slumped on Bai Lian’s sofa, hugging her little bok choy cushion on the couch, his eyes shining bright.

Jiang Fulai was in the study, slowly and methodically arranging the bookshelf with his hand.

Most of the books Bai Lian brought were introduced to her by Senior Ma, along with a stack of thick printed documents. The bookshelf was placed to the left of the entrance, and on the right was a small desk.

Jiang Fulai organized the books, his pale phoenix eyes glancing at the apartments on both sides, his slender fingertips tapping the black book cover.

He seemed thoughtful.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Jiang Xijue in no hurry.

Sijing Club.

It was still a gathering organized by Xiao Bingwen.

Inside the private room, Xiao Bingwen looked at Qi Shuyun next to Leng Shuhe, “Your sister ranked third in the college entrance exam this year?”

Qi Shuyun unconsciously toned down her movements. Their Qi Family could at best be considered a scholarly family, and even Xu En’s family was just wealthy, very different from this circle of power elites, “Yes, Mr. Xiao.”

Xiao Bingwen was surprised, “Then she is quite impressive; this year’s college entrance exam was quite brutal.”

Even Liang Wuyu was surpassed, which drew a lot of attention.

Xiao Bingwen participated in the betting pool and knew about this, but strangely, he could not find any specific information about this person.

Xu Nanjing sat next to Xiao Bingwen, idly swirling his glass with his head bowed.

The dim light shone on his face. He nonchalantly browsed his phone, soon stumbling upon a friend circle post sent by Bai Lian’s friend—

One Big Bowl Ate: [[Image]]

The screenshot of her chat with Bai Lian, one in Xiangcheng, the other in Jiangjing.

Xu Nanjing paused, and he commented, “Sister Bowl, is Alian in Jiangjing now?”

He had only added two of Bai Lian’s classmates, Ning Xiao and Pu Xiaohan. Sister Bowl was a nickname Weng Qi gave to Pu Xiaohan, although Xu Nanjing did not understand why someone named Pu Xiaohan would have the nickname “Sister Bowl”.

One minute later, One Big Bowl Ate replied: [1]

They had all learned the “1” character method.

Xu Nanjing stood up. He picked up the keys set aside and without looking back said to Xiao Bingwen, “It seems like Alian has come to Jiangjing. I’m going to find her.”

“She’s arrived this early?” Xiao Bingwen exclaimed in surprise, standing up to see Xu Nanjing off.

Everyone sitting down stood up as well.

“Shuhe, who is the person the Third Young Master mentioned?” someone asked Leng Shuhe, who was acquainted with Xiao Bingwen. They hadn’t heard the name clearly, but from Xu Nanjing’s attitude, they knew she was no ordinary person.

“I don’t know,” Leng Shuhe pondered after watching the attitudes of Xiao Bingwen and Xu Nanjing, “but the Third Young Master… seems to not even treat Miss Two with such an attitude.”

“Miss Two?” Qi Shuyun didn’t quite understand their circle.

The only one she knew of was Yu Hongyi.

Leng Shuhe glanced at her, then explained in a low voice, “In our circle, the only one who can be called Miss Two is Miss Jinyi from the Xu Family. Just don’t offend her, and you’ll be fine.”

With the Xu Family riding the current tide, their status soared. Although Xu Jinyi was Xu Jueming’s daughter, everyone knew that Xu Jueling’s wife, Gao Yan, had no daughters and treated Xu Jinyi as her own.

And Gao Yan…

She used to be the best friend of the young matron of the Jiang Family, her status within the Jiang Family incomparable to others.

As a result, Xu Jinyi held a lot of sway among the sons and daughters of Jiangjing’s elite.

Everyone addressed her respectfully as “Miss Two.”

Upon mention of the Xu Family, Qi Shuyun roughly understood which “Xu” they were talking about.

Qi Shuyun watched in the direction Xu Nanjing left, finally certain that this man was the target of her grandmother and the Jiangjing Xu Family.

Shanhai Apartment.

By the time the old Mrs. Xu and Xu En arrived, Bai Lian was just coming downstairs.

The old lady was turning her Buddha Beads, inspecting the neighborhood and complaining to Xu En, “The environment here is so poor, how could you let her live here?”

The old lady hadn’t been able to sit still knowing Bai Lian was coming, insisting that Xu En take her to see her.

Ji Mulan followed behind Xu En, looking towards Bai Lian, somewhat dazed.

Bai Lian was dressed in simple clothes, her dark hair lightly coiled, a strand sticking to her snowy face under the streetlight, her complexion as clear as ice, almost nothing like the girl from her memories.

“Alian has her own ideas,” Xu En glanced at the old lady, then said to Bai Lian, “You’ve made arrangements with Wenyao to visit Jiangjing University, right?”

Bai Lian nodded. She greeted Xu En but did not look at Ji Mulan. As for leaving Jiang Fulai behind to clean up the room…

The old Mrs. Xu took a look at Bai Lian. Going to see Jiangjing University?

That makes sense; people visiting Jiangjing usually liked to see the university first.
