Chapter 394: 153 Dean Jian, Jian Zhe’s Cheating Friend (Second Update)_1
Bai Lian’s voice was speaking.
Jiang He, who couldn’t understand Go and sat in a chair, half-asleep, was suddenly alert. He jumped up to open the door.
But Director Chen was faster. Holding his chopsticks, he came out, walked to the gate, and opened it, “Miss Bai.”
After he spoke, he saw the silver suitcase in Bai Lian’s hands.
Director Chen reached out to take it.
Bai Lian waved her hand, not giving it to him, and then turned her head, “We’ve arrived.”
It was then that Director Chen noticed the elderly man beside Bai Lian. The Chen family didn’t deal in the arts—the senior Chen had once fought against thieves, Chen Beixuan was trained in sniping, and Director Chen himself had come out of the military…
Jiangjing was so vast; he didn’t recognize Dean Jian, only finding him vaguely familiar.
If it had been the president of Jiangjing University or Jiangjing National Defense, Director Chen would have definitely known him.
Dean Jian hadn’t seen Director Chen either. Bai Lian put the suitcase aside and introduced Dean Jian to the family.
Dean Jian stood beside her and quietly tried to lift the suitcase with one hand.
He couldn’t budge it.
“…”
He stared at the suitcase, puzzled and silent for a long time before he came to his senses and introduced himself to people like Ji Heng, “Bai Lian and I are friends; just here for a visit to Xiangcheng.”
Having struggled with his mother since his childhood, what hardship hadn’t he endured? Here, he had none of the airs of a dean.
Shen Qing’s eyes lit up; she greatly admired teachers who practiced the arts, “Quick, please, have a seat.”
It was Jiang Fulai, though, upon hearing he was a Jian, who gave him a longer look.
That look was chilling.
Jian Zhongyou was quite confused at the dinner table, thinking he hadn’t offended the young man, right? Why did he seem so fierce, to the point that even Jian Zhongyou felt somewhat daunted?
Of course, he wasn’t aware that the screenshot Bai Lian had taken before contained the words “Dean Jian.”
In a few words, Jiang Fulai guessed Dean Jian’s identity.
Everyone at the table was very talkative, except for Bai Lian, Jiang Fulai, and Jiang He, who spoke little and ate politely, obviously having received specialized training in etiquette.
Whenever someone asked her something, Bai Lian would always swallow her food before speaking.
“We’re going fishing tomorrow,” Ji Heng, knowing this was Bai Lian’s friend, was very polite to Dean Jian, “Do you have any plans? You can join us for fishing and also take a look at the Xiangcheng River; it’s quite spectacular.”
He knew Bai Lian was on a tight schedule, with her senior year being very busy, using every bit of time for homework.
Dean Jian thanked him, “Thank you.”
