Chapter 428: Unusually talented individual_3 takes the 168th preliminary exam
“It’s about the company consultant issue,” Xiao Bingwen said straightforwardly to Xu Nanjing without any intention of avoiding Bai Lian, “I’m thinking of looking for Professor Huang…”
Bai Lian had no interest in listening, she waved her hand at Xu Nanjing, “Thank you.”
Then she turned and walked in the direction of the Zhang family’s place.
After Bai Lian left, Xu Nanjing finally sat on her motorcycle, looked up at Xiao Bingwen, and folded her arms across her chest, “Then it’s no use looking for me, although I am from Jiangjing University, I later switched to economics. You should look for Brother Jiang.”
Xiao Yilei, who was with Xiao Bingwen: “…”
Who would dare to?

The street with the Tube Building.
Yang Lin’s mother quickly received a call from her current husband, who said with more than a hint of sarcasm, “Did you give her money? Don’t forget that your son is going to get married someday.”
They moved back only after hearing that Xiangcheng was becoming prosperous, and when real estate prices there rose, they simply bought an 80sqm apartment near the Tube Building. Ever since Yang Lin’s mother returned, her husband had been very bothered about Yang family’s business.
Yang Lin’s mother felt an inherent sense of guilt about leaving Yang Lin behind, after all these years.
Chastised by her husband like this, she hesitated, “She’s about to take the college entrance exams…”
“So what?” the current husband became alert, “Anyway, don’t bring her back here, and don’t give her a penny. The daughter of a gambler, Tianbao is going to apply for Beicheng University in the future, don’t let her lead him astray!”
After so many years away, Yang Lin’s mother felt nothing for Yang Lin except guilt.
Realizing this after her husband’s words, she remembered that her future old age would depend on Tianbao’s support, she weighed her options and concluded, “I understand.”

Several students from Class 15 were in the backyard of the Zhang family’s house, moving flower pots and merchandise.
Mr. Zhang was not at home today; he had probably gone on a business trip after the New Year.
Mrs. Zhang brought out a bunch of snacks and Coke for the group of students, “I’ve told you, there’s not much merchandise today, you didn’t have to come…”
When Bai Lian arrived, most of the heavy lifting was already done.
She moved the last box of flowers from the truck and placed it into the backyard.
Just in time, Xu En called her, his voice cheerful, “Alian, recently, those people have stopped prying into your grandfather’s information, maybe we were mistaken.”
“Thank you,” Bai Lian replied while holding a pair of scissors, slicing open the tape on the box to reveal a bunch of fresh flowers.
She only raised an eyebrow, of course, no one was inquiring anymore because the person had been found.
“Is there anything you or your grandfather are lacking lately?” Xu En asked, then seemed to remember something, “Also, what has your uncle been up to? I’ve called him twice and he hasn’t answered.”
“It’s nothing, he’s just been a bit busy lately,” Bai Lian replied nonchalantly.
With that, Xu En no longer dwelt on the issue with Ji Shaojun.
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Zhang passed her a can of Coke.
“Auntie,” Bai Lian opened the Coke with one hand and took a sip, “Zhang Er… Zhang Shize has earned a commendation in prison, decreasing his sentence by a month and a half.”
She and Jiang Fulai had been tutoring Zhang Shize every week.
But Mrs. Zhang only got to visit him once every half month, so she hadn’t heard this news.
“Really?” Mrs. Zhang instinctively looked up upon hearing news about Zhang Shize, “How did he earn a commendation?”
During the New Year, there was a disturbance in the prison, Zhang Shize had knocked down the ringleader, quelling the unrest, and it was said he gained quite a few minions inside.
However, Bai Lian did not go into detail with Mrs. Zhang about this.
“He helped the prison warden catch someone,” Bai Lian downplayed the incident.
She knew full well how clumsy Zhang Shize was and that he must have suffered a lot in there; Bai Lian was not concerned, but she knew Mrs. Zhang could not bear to hear it.
“Good, good…” Mrs. Zhang wiped her eyes, “I’ll go and tell Yan Lu the good news!”
A reduction of a month and a half in the sentence meant he would be out even sooner.

This weekend, the entire Xiangcheng No. 1 High School had scheduled a beginning-of-term examination.
All three grades would take it together.
The internal exams at Xiangcheng No. 1 High School were not as rigidly structured as the college entrance examinations.
Saturday’s exams were Chinese, mathematics, and English, with the final exam on Sunday morning still being the comprehensive science subject.
Bai Lian only brought two pens, as usual.
She was ranked first in the final exams, and all the senior year teachers knew her by name and face. Seating for the exams was done by rank, so she was at the first table in the first examination room.
Almost as soon as the comprehensive science exam started, an invigilating teacher stopped next to her.
Looking down at her exam paper.
Bai Lian’s papers were always favored by the teachers for their neatness. Now, even Lu Lingxi and Lian Ningxiao’s papers were starting to be scrutinized, not to mention the others, especially Weng Qi and a few who liked to show off with extravagant writing styles.
