Chapter 686: Meet at 273, out of the mountain _1
Just one table by itself?
The butler looked at Ji Heng, hesitating a bit. After all, Ji Heng was an elder, and it didn’t seem right for him to sit with a bunch of kids.
“It’s fine,” Ji Heng had never been particular about these things. If not for Bai Lian and the others, he wouldn’t have come back to Jiangjing. Seeing the butler’s hesitation, he lowered his head and took a drag of his cigarette, “You arrange it like that.”
“I’ll go back and discuss it with the young lady.”
Outside the courtyard gate, Lance and Jiang He were still squatting under the sun umbrella, looking at the newly sown seeds.
The wind outside was actually a bit chilly. He told Jiang He to come in and put on a jacket.
...
“And Miss Mu Lan,” the butler remembered this matter, “made an appointment for next Wednesday to transfer her household registration.”
The ordeal of Ji Mulan’s household registration went through several twists and turns.
After countless obstacles, the Ji family’s children ultimately returned to the Mu Family, and now only Bai Lian remained on Ji Heng’s household registration book.
Smoke wafted through the air.
Ji Heng lowered his eyelids.
The butler, having conveyed his message, did not stay to disturb Ji Heng any further. After speaking with Ji Heng, he left with the crab roe buns that Ji Heng had given him.
Lance came in with Jiang He, and seeing the crab lying in the box in the hallway, he was startled, then said, “There are still some left? I don’t feel like eating today!”

At six o’clock in the evening, Kangyu Tower.
Gao Shu was somewhat nervous. She had come an hour early and was on the phone with Gao Yan, inquiring about Bai Lian’s personality.
“You’re asking about Lian? Don’t be nervous,” on the other end of the phone, Gao Yan set down the fan in her hand, walked out to the porch to look at the koi under the bridge, “She’s very well-behaved and polite…”
Gao Yan leaned on the bridge railing, her figure illuminated by the light in front, uttering a string of praises for Bai Lian.
These things had already been discussed between her and Gao Shu over WeChat.
It was the same old story.
Gao Shu briefly met Bai Lian once before and could tell just from her appearance that Bai Lian was a person of cultivation and grace, no doubt nurtured in culture and the arts from a young age.
Speaking of which, Gao Shu, like Gao Yan, found it strange. Where had Bai Lian encountered such traditional cultural influence?
