Chapter 520: Special Treatment 208: Bai Qiming Collides with Bai Lian_2
“`
Those who pay attention to the college entrance exams generally have children or relatives participating. Most adults already in the workforce only briefly notice when some related videos pop up.
Xu Nanjing timed her call to wish Bai Lian good luck with the exams and also reached out to her after the exams to see how she did.
But no matter how she tried to ask indirectly, she couldn’t get anything out of Bai Lian, who always seemed nonchalant with a rather restrained emotion.
“Right,” Bai Lian casually wiped her hair a few times before grabbing a remote and turning on the TV.
Hearing the sound of the television, Xu Nanjing figured Bai Lian must have done okay and laughed, “So when are you coming to Jiangjing?”
Recently, everyone who contacted Bai Lian asked her this question. Bai Lian switched channels: “In July, not sure exactly when.”
The hotel’s TV seemed different from the one at home, requiring membership for everything.
Bai Lian flipped through several channels to find the same situation.
She threw the remote aside.
“July?” Xu Nanjing calculated the time. The old man’s birthday was in July, and if Bai Lian came early enough, she should be able to make it, “Okay, then I’ll wait for you in Jiangjing.”
After hanging up the phone, Bai Lian opened WeChat to message Jiang Fulai.

She was now adept at typing with the 26-key input method but still preferred to be concise.

On the other side of the phone.
Today was the Dragon Boat Festival, and half the research team had gone home. Jiang Fulai was still occupied, and when he saw the message, ten minutes had already passed.
He cradled a record book in his left hand while writing lines of text with his right.
The handwriting flowed like moving clouds and flowing water.
As he walked to the office, the arc of his anti-radiation coat fluttered.
Reaching his desk, he casually placed the record book on the table. With a detached demeanor, he didn’t bother to look at the middle-aged man following him, simply picking up his phone to say, “No quota.”
The Jiang family’s eldest son couldn’t be bothered to appease anyone, whether in the lab or at home with the Jiangs.
He held the power of decision, and trying to sneak any additional people onto his team was nearly impossible.
Even the Gao family had to back down.
