Chapter 523: 209, it’s your turn, Bai Jian! (Second update)_2
After his last trip to Xiangcheng, he let go of an assistant, leaving only his confidant, Lao Hu.
But even Lao Hu didn’t know whom Dean Jian was on the phone with, judging by the Dean’s tone, it must be someone out of the ordinary.
Jiahao Hotel.
By the time Dean Jian had checked in, it was already six o’clock.
His room was on the 56th floor, but he didn’t go there first, instead, he headed straight to the 11th floor to find Bai Lian.
“Why are you staying on a lower floor?” Dean Jian asked casually after he walked in.
The lower the floor, the worse the view.
Bai Lian commented, “I’m a bit afraid of heights.”
Lao Hu followed Dean Jian into the room and saw Bai Lian’s stunning look, even more beautiful than the celebrity Yan Lu who went to the school to record songs. Could this be another star?

Lao Hu thought to himself.
Dean Jian was here for her compositions. He sat down at the table in the lobby, urging Bai Lian, “Show me your composition.”
Bai Lian casually tossed her backpack to Dean Jian.
The content of the backpack was simple, Lao Hu looked on as Dean Jian pulled out a bunch of English documents. He had learned English, but didn’t understand what they were; he felt a little puzzled.
Dean Jian only found two sheets of music written in Jianpu notation at the very bottom of the pile.
Bai Lian poured tea for the two of them, and Lao Hu quickly said thank you, his eyes drawn to the Jianpu notation in Dean Jian’s hands. As his confidant, Lao Hu was familiar with it, as Dean Jian had been studying Jianpu notation for the last six months.
He recognized it as a melody at first glance.
Putting together the fact that Dean Jian went straight to Bai Lian without even going to his room, Lao Hu suddenly remembered something and looked at Bai Lian—
Dean Jian, who had spent a lot of time in Jiangjing, was unassuming.
He used to like playing “The White Robed Journey” and later became obsessed only with the compositions of a very famous online composer named Bai Jian.
Bai Jian’s compositions could stand up to scrutiny.
The first piece, “Gambling with Liquor,” had the style of “The White Robed Journey,” and the latest piece even surpassed “Gambling with Liquor” in how well it melded with the guzheng, even more so than “The White Robed Journey.”
Yan Lu’s songs had been arranged for various instruments at the Jiangjing Music Academy; the guzheng, bamboo flute, pipa, harp…
Many speculated about Bai Jian’s identity, most believing it was one of the few musical giants who were on a par with Dean Jian.
Lao Hu had also speculated this before.
But now, as he looked at Bai Lian, a preposterous idea surged in his mind.
Dean Jian took note of the Jianpu notation and, having grasped Bai Lian’s current style, he began to rush her to continue writing, “Hurry up and write.”
Bai Lian sat across from Dean Jian and leisurely poured herself a cup of tea, “It takes time.””Oh,” when Dean Jian arrived, he saw high school graduates taking group photos downstairs and thought of Bai Lian, “How did the exams go for you?”
What he really wanted to ask was—
Can you really make it to Jiang University?
Bai Lian’s eyes drifted toward the window, and she just smiled, “Not bad.”
She replied.
