The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417: Miss Bai, who has no particular background, 163 (Second Update)_2

**

The next day, Sunday.

Xin’an Community.

Shen Qing’s hair had grown a few centimeters, and she was squeezing in beside Ji Shaojun.

“Who exactly are those two people?” Shen Qing didn’t dare to stay outside, especially the old man, who always looked at people with scrutiny.

Ji Shaojun looked at her and repeated the same phrase, “It’s nothing.”

Shen Qing took a pile of fruit outside.

Ji Heng and the butler sat on the sofa, occasionally talking about something, while Xiaojie stood next to them, majestically.

“Take a seat,” Shen Qing said to Xiaojie, giving an awkward smile.

Xiaojie shook his head at her without speaking.

He was even cooler than Xiaoming.

Shen Qing didn’t say anything else; she placed the fruit on the table.

The butler watched Shen Qing do this, and then glanced at Ji Shaojun cooking in the kitchen, sighing once again; he had not stepped into the kitchen for so many years…

These two people.

They had a long way to go.

He whispered to Ji Heng, “I want to take them to Jiangjing first.”

Xiangcheng was too backward, and the butler didn’t have much time to stay here. He just hoped to take Ji Shaojun back to Jiangjing and teach him some things, at least let him manage Ji Heng’s inheritance well.

As he was speaking, the doorbell rang outside. Shen Qing’s eyes brightened, and she scrambled to open the door: “Alian is here.”

“Alian?” The butler didn’t recall the name.

Ji Heng, holding his tobacco pipe, sounded rather pleased with himself: “My granddaughter.”

Granddaughter? The butler recalled what Xiaojie had mentioned about the two girls.

Outside the door.

Bai Lian had just returned from the library, holding her cell phone in one hand and her backpack in the other, talking with Jiang Fulai.

Jiang Fulai invited her to come over in the afternoon and, by the way, take a look at the laboratory.

Bai Lian hadn’t visited his small laboratory in a long while, so she didn’t refuse, “Okay.”

She pressed the doorbell with the hand carrying her backpack.

Jiang Fulai continued speaking leisurely on the other end of the phone, “Then you’ll have to call me after you’ve eaten.”

He specifically urged her, otherwise Bai Lian would just send him a “1”.

“Sure, I’ll call.”

As Bai Lian was speaking, Shen Qing had just opened the door in time to hear what Bai Lian said, and she was taken aback.

“Call what?” Remembering Bai Lian’s previous fearless attitude, Shen Qing was shocked and lowered her voice: “Alian, don’t go getting into fights like that Boss Lu.”

Bai Lian: “…”

She hung up the phone emphatically and looked up at Shen Qing obediently, “Okay.”

Inside the living room, Xiaojie, naturally, had heard Shen Qing’s words. He glanced at Shen Qing but didn’t say anything, his gaze curiously turning to Bai Lian.

She was dressed in a white sweatshirt, its collar a brown crossneck embroidered with faux frog closures, a lazy black cat stitched on the left chest, and auspicious patterns on both sleeves.

Her jet-black hair was entirely coiled up, held by two wooden hairpins slantingly inserted at the back of her head.

“Grandpa,” Bai Lian lowered her eyes and greeted Ji Heng respectfully.

Ji Heng nodded with his tobacco pipe in hand, not introducing the butler to her; if Ji Heng didn’t say anything, Bai Lian also wouldn’t ask.

Seeing Bai Lian’s arrival, the butler swallowed the words he was about to say and started chatting idly with Ji Heng.

Bai Lian found a spot on the carpet to sit and placed her backpack on the coffee table. She lazily pulled out a chemistry practice book from the unzipped bag and began working on it.

Xiaojie and the butler cast a glance after hearing Shen Qing’s voice, their eyes catching the title of Bai Lian’s book – a basic chemistry textbook.

The butler asked Shen Qing a few questions on the side.

The butler just smiled. _{freёwebnovel.com}
