“Hello, I’m Ren Wanxuan’s grandfather.”

Ren Qian was the first to speak, standing not far away, squinting slightly as he sized up Bai Lian, his aura as a person in a position of power feeling quite oppressive.

“Bai Lian.” Bai Lian nodded at him, her tone lacking any discernible emotion.

Ren Qian watched her quietly, noting her school uniform was just like the other students’, and even the hairpin on her head was handmade.

From head to toe.

Even her shoes were nothing out of the ordinary.

Everything about her resonated with the rundown, impoverished Purest Street.

Yet standing in the night, backed by a long staircase and a street lamp that wasn’t even very bright, the quiet look she returned was like a mandrake growing on the cliffs of the night.

“Wanxuan has been spoiled by us, I apologize for what happened today,” Ren Qian regained his composure, full of regret, “she hadn’t anticipated that you would also have an invitation to the White Tiger Auction House. I’ve arranged a banquet tonight and hope you can forgive my granddaughter.” fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

“There’s no need,” Bai Lian smiled, a hint of indifference in her lazy demeanor under the light, “l got the invitation by helping someone by accident, and I’ve already sold it this afternoon.”

That made sense, since Purest Street was close to two boundaries.

It wasn’t strange to run into some people there.

The secretary general pondered internally and then deliberately mentioned the Wanhe Building, “Miss Bai, our gentleman has made a reservation for a meal at the Wanhe Building…”

Wanhe Building, the most famous members-only restaurant in Xiangcheng. A random dish there would start at four digits and required a reservation.

An ordinary person couldn’t even get through the door.

“l have other plans,” Bai Lian interrupted, “I’ll take my leave first.” The secretary general stood dumbfounded, watching Bai Lian walk away.

“Sir, does she not watch the news?” the secretary general turned to ask Ren Qian, unable to hide his confusion.

Just a glance more at the news and she would know who Ren Qian was, wouldn’t she?

“This girl has an unusual air about her,” Ren Qian mused, then instructed, “Send a gift to the Ji Family tomorrow.”

Was this an indication of seeking good relations?

The secretary general was surprised but gained a measure of respect for the Ji Family. Although Bai Lian’s invitation had been acquired unintentionally, what if she formed a relationship with that person in the future?

Ren Qian returned to his car.

The girl seated in the back was still looking down at her phone, not bothering to look up.

It was another solution to last time’s problem!

The rest of the tutorial class had already left, only Ning Xiao and Chen Zhu were still seated in their original spots.

Chen Zhu reluctantly put away the alternate solution and then got up to find the teacher for the eighth class.

The eighth class teacher put down his thermos, surprised by Chen Zhu’s approach, “What’s up?”

“This solution,” Chen Zhu spread out the paper he was holding for the eighth class teacher to see, “where did you get it from?”

The eighth class teacher looked at Chen Zhu without answering immediately. Instead, he asked, “What do you think of the new student?”

If Chen Zhu had spoken up timely today about the incident involving Ren Wanxuan, perhaps the dispute wouldn’t have escalated as it did.

Chen Zhu was the only one in the school who could stand up to Ren Wanxuan.

When Bai Lian was mentioned, Chen Zhu paused; he recalled the reason she came to the tutorial class and that “85” score. It was precisely because of this understanding that he had kept quiet at noon today.

Clearly, his understanding was still limited.

“I don’t know her well enough to comment,” he said.

“I’m planning to establish a study group tomorrow. Will you lead the new student?” the eighth class teacher asked..
