The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 517

Chapter 517: 207 Bai Family Clan! Return to Beicheng (second watch)_1

As they were talking, Xu En glanced at his phone, which lay in his hands.

On the screen was the WeChat interface; he had sent several messages to Bai Lian, asking about her gaokao and when she would be coming to Jiangjing.

But she hadn’t replied the whole time.

Listening to Xu Wenyao and Xu Zhiyue’s conversation, he opened Bai Lian’s profile picture and then sent another message—

Xu En: “Even Zhiyue and others say this gaokao was tough, don’t dwell on it if you’ve passed, no one from the affiliated school did well”

Xu En: “#@!%…”

He sent a long string of comforting words.

“Nothing much is going on at our school,” Xu Zhiyue put down her pencil case, speaking slowly and softly, “The students in our class are all discussing this, many didn’t do well.”

“That’s strange indeed,” Xu Wenyao narrowed his eyes slightly, “How come the questions were so far beyond the norm this year?”

If the difficulty of the questions was beyond the norm, the gaokao organizers must have consulted experts, so—

Why did the expert panel go to such lengths?

At first, when Xu Zhiyue mentioned the difficulty of the questions, Old Mrs. Xu felt a “thump” in her heart.

Later, when she heard that everyone else also found it difficult, the old lady was relieved, “Don’t worry about whether the questions were beyond the norm, Zhiyue just has to perform as usual.”

To perform as usual meant ranking in at least the top three.

In Xiangcheng, at a hot pot restaurant.

Bai Lian saw Xu En’s messages just as Pu Xiaohan was ordering food.

Ning Xiao and Tang Ming had just been discussing the last math problem with her, so she hadn’t had time to check her phone.

Now that she looked, there were a stack of messages on her phone; she scrolled from top to bottom through Xu En’s texts.

Bai Lian: “Tough?”

Bai Lian: “.”

Bai Lian: “I’ll go to Jiangjing in July”

She replied to Xu En one message at a time.

“Bai, stop looking at your phone all the time,” Weng Qi, sitting opposite Bai Lian, tossed a bottle of liquor to her, “Come on, drink up.”

Bai Lian, holding her phone, didn’t even lift her head, and caught the beer with precision.

Weng Qi, who often brought mineral water to Bai Lian, Pu Xiaohan, Ning Xiao, and the others during breaks, had become quite close with them.

“Nothing,” Lu Lingxi said with a smile and a shake of her head. The gaokao was over, and she really shouldn’t be putting pressure on the students, but she still couldn’t help but ask, “How did you do in the Chinese exam?” freewebnøvel.com
