Xu Wenyao paused at the mention of the Chen Family.

Then he bid farewell to Xu Shujie and went upstairs. Xu Shujie got into her car and instructed the driver to head to the intersection ahead.

A black Hongqi car passed them by, with every vehicle around it seemingly willing to keep a two-meter distance.

In the back seat, Xu Shujie was also shocked to see that car. “How could that license plate be in Yunxiao District?”

Yunxiao Hotel.

As the car pulled to a stop,

the valet quickly went up and, before Bai Lian even realized, opened the door for her.

Bai Lian casually unbuckled her seatbelt, pondering that Young Master Jiang’s presence was becoming increasingly powerful, forcing other cars to keep their distance even through the vehicle’s barriers.

She was completely unaware of the significance of the car’s body and license plate, “Thank you.”

She expressed her gratitude to the young man.

The valet, seeing her beautiful face, thought it was rare for someone so attractive and polite to be in such a car, and hurriedly shook his head.

Young Master Jiang silently watched her leave; he had no choice but to return to Boyuan Base to give a lecture to those two who he couldn’t quite understand.

Upstairs, in the private room.

Ji Mulan saw how busy Xu Wenyao was and felt discontent that Bai Lian, who was yet to arrive, had kept them waiting.

Especially since Ji Heng and Xu En had been there since four o’clock.

When Bai Lian finally arrived, Ji Mulan couldn’t help but go to the door, her voice low, “Where have you been? Why make them wait so long? Any other day would do to see the sights of Jiangjing.”

“Just to see if you’d call the police,” Bai Lian glanced at her.

Then she bypassed Ji Mulan and walked inside.

Ji Mulan: “…”

Standing by the French window, Ji Heng and Xu En turned around and took their seats at the dining table upon hearing of Bai Lian’s arrival.

The two had no complaints about waiting for Bai Lian; they both knew she was dedicated to her studies, especially Xu En, who thought she must have been at the library.

“How come Shuyun didn’t come?” Xu En asked Xu Wenyao.

Qi Shuyun had been introduced to Xu Wenyao by the old lady as his girlfriend quite early on. They had been in the same class since junior high, and the old lady liked her very much.

“She didn’t have time,” answered Xu Wenyao, looking up.

Xu En nodded and refrained from asking further.

The butler, who was just attending to their drinks, overheard and cast his gaze downward, knowing the old lady would never have let Miss Qi meet with these people.

They talked among themselves, while Bai Lian did not join in.

She was busy eating and looking at her phone, which displayed a message from He Wen—

He Wan: [Boss! Thank you!!]

Bai Lian: [1]

He Wen: [Why don’t you want to be the first author?]

This was about He Wen’s paper; he was good at physics, and his math was also excellent, but there were few in the lab who could match him.

His paper delved a bit into quantum mechanics, which Ma Institute’s Director saw from the beginning.

Further examples needed a particle wave model and the Boltzmann equation…

Strong mathematical groundwork was necessary, so Jiang Fulai recommended Bai Lian to He Wen.

After working together on the model, He Wen realized that Jiang Fulai’s recommendation wasn’t just any genius; she solved a long-standing issue for him, and he wanted to put Bai Lian as the first author.

Bai Lian had asked Jiang Fulai the significance of being the first author and didn’t feel she deserved much credit in He Wen’s paper.

So she let him list her as the second author.

But He Wen didn’t understand.

Bai Lian: [Shut up]

She was blunt.

He Wen: [Okay.]

After He Wen’s reply, the small group chat between her, Tang Ming, and Ning Xiao buzzed.

Tang Ming: [Jiang bro is so moody today]

Tang Ming: [Sis, when are you coming back?]

Tang Ming: [(Crying) (Crying) (Crying)]

Bai Lian: [… Just be smart about it.]

At the side, while others were chatting casually, the butler glanced at Bai Lian, who was still engrossed in her phone.

Ji Mulan noticed it too. She really wanted to say “Don’t play with your phone while eating.”

But she feared Bai Lian might retort with a forthright “I will play” in front of everyone.

She dared not utter the words.

“Do you want to visit Jiangjing University?” Xu Wenyao was seated next to Bai Lian and struck up a conversation, “I’m heading back to school in a bit, I can take you there.”

Upon hearing this, the butler cast a glance at Bai Lian.

He had anticipated this and was not surprised, though his brow furrowed slightly. He and Xu Shujie thought alike, feeling Xu Wenyao was wasting too much time on this family.
