The woman in black was momentarily startled, seemingly pausing before speaking, “From Xiangcheng.”
“l knew it, thank you,” Bai Lian put out her cigarette, casually tossing it into the trash can, and then said to Mao Kun, “ I’m going to do homework.”
Mao Kun hurriedly responded, “Sister, go do your homework. If it’s too noisy, have someone take you to a private room.”
After she left.
It was only then that Mao Kun grabbed the man by the collar, “Are you blind? You want to mess with my sister?!”
He threw the man in his hand to his subordinates and said coldly, “Take care of him.”
Only now did the woman next to them snap back to reality, surprised, “Young
Master Mao.”
Mao Kun recognized the glamorous woman as the resident singer of the bar, lit a cigarette for himself, and before leaving, he spoke, “Xun Chun? Remember my number, if there’s any issue, come find me directly. You’ve done a great service today by keeping the streets free of bloodshed.”
His understanding of Bai Lian’s thoughts could be said to be exceedingly profound.
It was around ten at night when Backter Street was the busiest.
The Ren Family car waited in line before it slowly left the underground parking lot.
In the van, Ji Heng and Ren Qian sat up front.
Ji Heng, with a pipe in hand, silently watched out the window. In the corner of his eye, he thought he saw a shadow and blurted out, “Stop the car.”
The driver stopped.
Ren Qian looked at Ji Heng in surprise, “What’s
“Nothing,” Ji Heng observed the crowd and shook his head, “l might have seen wrong.”
He fell into silence again. The car left Backter Street amidst the rush of traffic and people, and finally stopped at the entrance of an alley on Purest Street.
After Ji Heng got out and entered the alley, the car slowly continued on to the Ren Family.
After Ji Heng left, Ren Qian turned to the secretary in the passenger seat, “Has Dr. Gaffs teaching assistant gotten back to you?”
The secretary nodded solemnly, “We’re still renewing the reservation for the private room in Wanhe Building, and 1 am trying to schedule the earliest possible time with Dr. Gaffs teaching assistant.”
Chen Zhu and Ren Wanxuan sat in the back of the van.
He had been holding back his confusion all the way, but when they brought it up again, he turned to Ren Wanxuan, “The Dr. Gao you mentioned…
Only then did Ren Wanxuan speak up, “You should know there’s a major project in Xiangcheng. Many people from Jiangjing have come. This Dr. Gao is a doctorate who has just returned to the country from Jiangjing University.” “What? Jiangjing University?” Chen Zhu almost exclaimed out loud.
He had only heard his parents discuss the major project in Xiangcheng because the matter involved level-two confidentiality, and he didn’t understand the specifics.
But a doctor from Jiangjing University…
That at the very least was the status equivalent to national top scorers of each class. How did the Ren Family manage to get in touch with one?
“Correct,” Ren Wanxuan knew the importance of the issue, which was why she hadn’t allowed the secretary to mention it in front of Bai Lian, to prevent Ji Heng and Bai Lian from hearing, “If Dr. Gao is willing to tutor us, or recommend us to Jiangjing University…”
Xiangcheng Middle School hadn’t produced a student who got into Jiangjing University for many years.
This time, they had with great difficulty obtained a spot for the “Jingjiang Preparatory Camp”. Even if Dr. Gao couldn’t apply for the camp, they had nearly twenty people competing for one spot in their training course. Every one of them was a competitor, and every post-lesson exercise was counted towards their ongoing assessment.
These exercises were difficult for them, but for Dr. Gao, they would surely be extremely simple.
With Dr. Gaffs help, their chances of success would reach 80%.
The Chen Family managed to invite Chief Chen as a guest, and Ren Wanxuan knew the Chen Family’s significance. She was aware of the gap between her, Chen Zhu, and Ning Xiao, so she did not keep Dr. Gaffs matters concealed from Chen Zhu any longer.
Chen Zhu also snapped out of his daze, his heart “thumping” wildly, almost as if it was about to burst from his chest.
“Thank you.” He looked steadily at Ren Wanxuan and took a deep breath.
“We’re in the same group, of course, we move forward or fall back together,”
Ren Wanxuan said with a smile, not seeming to care much.
Chen Zhu nodded.
When the teacher had discussed grouping with him on Friday, he had felt a bit of regret.
Because Ning Xiao seemed to want to be grouped with Bai Lian, which wasn’t surprising as they were in the same class.
But now, he felt extremely fortunate.
Fortunate that he had politely refused the class teacher that night and hadn’t rejected Ren Wanxuan when she asked him the next day.
Up ahead, Ren Qian suddenly thought of something and mentioned casually, “l remember Bai Lian is also in your senior year. If we’re inviting Dr. Gao to dinner, include her as well.’
Ren Wanxuan looked up, “Include her? What for, she can understand what Dr.. Gao says?”
