Chapter 449: Behind-the-scenes mastermind, the teacher found for Alian_2
The two of them exchanged glances, then bowed their heads to pull out their mobile phones and check the answer—
Two-fifths times the square root of three.
Weng Qi: “…”
Xiaohan: “…”
What goes around comes around, the pair lifted their heads, pretending nothing had happened, not daring to discuss the problem in Jiang He’s presence.

“I heard he’s going to take the bar exam?” Yan Lu came back today and visited Zhang Shize with Mother Zhang, wearing a black mask and asking in a low voice, “Can he become a lawyer?”
After all, it was a criminal offense.
Bai Lian didn’t understand these things either.
Jiang Fulai lowered his brow slightly, the temperature in the private room was cold, and he was holding a jacket in his hand, uttering only one sentence: “Don’t challenge Chi Lu’s professionalism.”
Yan Lu was worried and anxious, which of course, Chi Yundai had already considered.
She escorted Bai Lian to the door where Xiaotian and the male assistant waited outside for Yan Lu.
“This is Xiaotian, you’ve met him,” Yan Lu didn’t dare to speak much to Jiang Fulai but introduced the two new assistants to Bai Lian, “This one is Ahuang, a new assistant. Sometimes, when there are too many trolls, it’s Ahuang who handles them.”
Even the most famous celebrities have trolls, let alone Yan Lu.
Ahuang was very curious about Bai Lian but did not dare to ask more.
After Bai Lian and Jiang Fulai left, Ahuang asked Xiaotian in a low voice, “They’re actually friends with Sister Lu? Who is this Miss Bai? How come Sister Xin hasn’t signed her?”
With that aura and appearance, wouldn’t she become a star if she entered the entertainment industry?
“Miss Bai is not interested in the entertainment industry,” Xiaotian replied. Otherwise, she would have been snapped up long ago, wouldn’t she?
Yan Lu looked at the two of them, “You can also take a couple of days off.”

It wasn’t late after dinner.
Jiang Fulai drove Bai Lian home, whereas Xiaohan was going to Ji Heng’s place to shoot new material, so she went with Bai Lian.
Tomorrow would be March, and Ji Heng had already finalized the designs for the males and females and began cutting and making clothes. Nearly forty pieces of clothing needed to be rushed out by May, which was a bit of a tight schedule for two months.
When the four people arrived at Ji Heng’s courtyard, there were three people in the courtyard of Ji Heng.
Seeing Xiaohan, Ji Heng introduced these ladies, “These are embroideresses from around here, because there are too many clothes, and I was afraid we wouldn’t make it in time for your graduation photos, so I asked them for help.”
Handcrafted clothes have a long production time.
“This is great,” Xiaohan said excitedly to the three new embroideresses, “Can you appear in the shot?”
Aunt Shen, having been briefed by Ji Heng, nodded to Xiaohan with some reservation, “We can.”
Xiaohan immediately took out her camera from her bag and began filming details under the courtyard’s lights.
She planned to edit a video from the start of Ji Heng making the clothes until the whole class was dressed and had their graduation photos taken, which would be very meaningful as a keepsake.
For this time’s labor costs, Xiaohan contributed most of the funds and only a small portion came from the class fund.
It’s probably because Class 15’s class fund was never depleted. Although Class 15 didn’t have as substantial a background as Class 8, Xiaohan’s video views were quite impressive, making her a little rich girl in Class 15.
Ji Heng moved the embroidery frames to the side, and Jiang Fulai placed his coat on the stone table, helping to set things up.
Ji Heng put down his smoking pipe, glanced at Jiang Fulai, and didn’t say anything else. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Xiaohan finished filming a segment and stopped next to Bai Lian, “Lian Sister, Bird Brother is eight years old, right?”
“Right,” Bai Lian glanced down at Jiang He, who was sitting on the stone bench nibbling on an apple, and hooked her lip slightly, “Why?”
“Ah… never mind,” Xiaohan muttered and walked away with heavy steps.
After everyone left, Bai Lian leaned over slightly and flicked Jiang He’s forehead with her hand, “What have you done?”
That evening when they parted ways, she had noticed Class 15 looked as though they had taken a hit.
The Little Bird Brother refused to answer.

“Rewriting the Past” topped the new song chart overnight.
Besides the composition and arrangement, the lyrics of the song also trended on the hot search.
“The sun never sets.” Xiao Bingwen looked at the last line of the lyrics and found it interesting as well.

Next to him, Director Chen, who was speaking respectfully to Xu Nanjing, heard the words and laughed, not quite understanding music, but this phrase he caught on to, “Haha, stealing the idea, I love it, I’ll go have a listen.”
Director Chen didn’t usually listen to songs. He just tuned into the radio when driving.
He didn’t pay attention to Yan Lu’s new song. Now, however, he started searching for this new song on his phone.
Beside him, Xiao Bingwen watched Director Chen, thinking that such an idea was really like something a Chen Family member would have, a bandit-like idea, but the lyricist… probably didn’t mean it that way, right?
Jiangjing.
Xu Family.
The evening still featured a family dinner.
Ever since the Guo Huai incident, all the people Xu Jueming had planted next to Xu Nanjing had been removed, which Xu Jueming had anticipated. He would not have resorted to this if Xu Nanjing hadn’t made such a big move this time.
With no one left inside, it became difficult for him to keep tabs on Xu Nanjing.
Although no one said anything out loud, Xu Jueming knew that the Jiang Family must have had a hand in the purge of Xu Nanjing’s inner circle, “He really has some good luck.”
Xu Jueming gritted his teeth inwardly.
He’d paid a heavy price and still hadn’t gotten close to Jiang Xijue.
At the dinner table, some were praising Xu Jueming’s son, Xu Jin, who had just discussed cooperation with the official research and development department.
The elder Mr. Xu glanced at Xu Jin and nodded in approval, offering a few words of praise, “Not bad.”
His appetite was poor, and he didn’t eat much, only looking up to ask Xu Jueling, “How is Nanjing doing lately?”
Gao Yan sat next to Xu Jueling, her eyes downcast and silent.
Xu Jueling was modest.
“Big brother, don’t be modest,” Xu Jueming said to Xu Jueling with a smile, “You must be negotiating a big deal but keeping it from dad, is it supposed to be a surprise for him?”
There indeed was a surprise.
Xu Jueming bowed his head, hiding the cold sneer at the corner of his mouth.
He had really set Xu Nanjing up for a fall in the Xu Family from early on. Not to mention the elder Mr. Xu, even other members of the Xu Family all knew that Xu Nanjing was up to something big.
Having been away from home for more than half a month, Xu Nanjing had also been somewhat neglectful of the Xu Family affairs.
Plus, with Xu Jin recently chalking up one accomplishment after another, it inevitably led the elder Mr. Xu to some contemplation when comparing them.
“No big deal,” Xu Jueling said with a smile, turning to his father, “This matter was supposed to wait for Nanjing to come back and tell you himself, but since you asked, I’ll tell you now. Nanjing has negotiated a rare metal supply partnership with a foreign company. They will ensure a supply for the coming year, and the contract was just signed the day before yesterday.”
The moment these words were out, the laughter and chatter around the dinner table instantly vanished.
A look of surprise and joy spread across Elder Mr. Xu’s face, “He sealed the deal? Good, good, truly worthy of being a member of the Xu Family!”
He was so pleased that he asked someone to fetch his prized ‘daughter red’ wine to uncork.
“Are you sure it’s the Dawson Family?” Xu Jueming’s fingers, hanging by his side, clenched slightly, his smile freezing for a brief moment before instantly returning to normal.
“Younger brother, would you like to see the contract?” Xu Jueling asked with a smile, “We’re going to deliver next month. You’ll know then when you see it.”
“Alright,” Xu Jueming struggled to form a smile at the corner of his mouth. Aside from saying “alright,” he had no other words to offer.
The Dawson Family, the largest supplier in the world, almost monopolized the entire market.
If Xu Nanjing had indeed secured a deal with them, his standing in the Xu Family would only skyrocket.
He had taken a great risk by having Guo Huai come back. Why was Xu Nanjing still able to close such a deal, especially…
So quickly?
Xu Jueming found it utterly incomprehensible.

“We really owe it to that girl. What are you planning to do?” After dinner, Xu Jueling walked slowly back with Gao Yan, “But try to ride the motorbike less. It’s not safe.”
Xu Nanjing was home, and Xu Jueling was strict with him too.
“What can I do?” sighed Gao Yan, hugging her military coat closer, “I wanted to make her my goddaughter but she didn’t want to.”
Xu Jueling turned his head, a look of surprise in his handsome eyes, “The one you mentioned last time is her?”
“Yeah,” Gao Yan pondered and then pulled out her phone from her large pocket, calling Xu Nanjing.
Xu Nanjing answered quickly.
Gao Yan gave Xu Jueling a signal to be quiet before asking, “Didn’t you ask me to find a teacher last time? I asked Principal Liang for recommendations and confirmed with several of them, or else…”
She rolled her eyes, as if mentioning it casually: “Shall I send them to Xiangcheng?”
