The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress

Chapter 430: 169 She can’t turn things upside down in the Jiangjing circle? Guessing Rank_1

“`

Xu Nanjing said, and Bai Lian just nodded in agreement.

Although she didn’t react much, she still responded.

“You’re in your senior year of high school, almost there,” Xu Nanjing said with a smile, then turned to Bai Lian, “But I really envy you guys.”

“Envy?” Bai Lian picked up a piece of Lego casually and handed it to Jiang He, expressing surprise at Xu Nanjing’s remark.

“Yes, even though this year’s college entrance exam might be harder than last year’s, it’s still much better than our year.” Xu Nanjing didn’t pay much attention to the college entrance exam, but had heard a bit about it because of Liang Wuyu.

“Nanjing’s year was like a battle of the Gods,” Xiao Bingwen added on the side, “That year was dubbed the toughest college entrance exam, producing a bunch of well-known figures.”

Xu Nanjing laughed, “I almost didn’t make it into Jiangjing University.”

Is that so?

Bai Lian nodded.

Next to her, Jiang He looked up at Xu Nanjing.

Xu Nanjing was somewhat baffled and raised an eyebrow, “What are you doing?”

Jiang He lowered his head again and resumed piecing together his Lego slowly.

Upstairs, Jiang Fulai brought down a stack of printed papers.

He had them bound and placed them on the bar.

Ma Institute had given Bai Lian some introductory papers, some he had read before, and others were recent hot topics.

There wasn’t much for a senior high school student to get involved with, mainly to lay a foundation for the future.

In the hall, the dishes had already been arranged on the dining table.

Xiao Bingwen came today to meet Xu Nanjing, who had slept until mealtime. Jiang Fulai didn’t let him leave and invited him to stay and eat.

He dared not sit close to others and took a seat next to Xu Nanjing.

“Are your school’s test questions sufficient?” Jiang Fulai knew about the tension between Xiangcheng and Beicheng, but his reach wasn’t that far, and in the end, Xiangcheng No. 1 High School had to develop on its own.

The Chen Family had been a great help to Xiangcheng No. 1 High School in recent years, but still, it didn’t rise up.

Like the Chen Family, Jiang Fulai could only offer them some resources. freёweɓnovel.com

As he spoke, he noticed there were no drinks next to Bai Lian, so he got up, fetched a can of cola, casually opened it, and placed it beside her.

This scene didn’t surprise Xu Nanjing sitting nearby, but Xiao Bingwen was exceptionally astonished, thinking he had to be even more courteous to Bai Lian in the future.

After all, even Jiang He didn’t receive such treatment now.

Taking her time, Bai Lian picked up the cola and took a sip, thinking about the school’s issues: “For now, yes, most of the students have poor fundamentals and can’t handle the more difficult comprehensive questions.”

It wasn’t just the senior students affected, but also the freshmen and sophomores.

Listening calmly to her, Jiang Fulai’s left hand casually rested on the table, “After the college entrance exam, based on the exam quality, we’ll reassess and aim for provincial key status without too much worry.”

It was the first time Bai Lian had heard of the provincial key assessment, and she asked some details. Teacher qualifications, school environment, and student performance were all part of the assessment, with student performance being the most critical.

Apart from high scores, the school’s bachelor’s degree qualification rate was also important.

Both Xu Nanjing and Xiao Bingwen were listening and were quite surprised—doesn’t Xiangcheng have a provincial key high school?

The two of them were discussing studies.

Xiao Bingwen looked at Jiang Fulai, who sat beside Bai Lian, always slightly bowing his head, quietly listening to Bai Lian speak. Although he still seemed enveloped in a chill, this gentle and jade-like demeanor was very different from what Xiao Bingwen had imagined.

He felt that Jiang Fulai was just a bit cold, nowhere near as terrifying as the rumors said.

“Did you get the news about the supplier?” Xu Nanjing asked casually with chopsticks in hand, starting a conversation about business with Xiao Bingwen.

Xiao Bingwen nodded with a smile on his face, “Chael, he’s involved with the Dawson Family. I had a friend check it out locally, it’s confirmed.”

Unable to find a collaboration with Wang Youfeng, they had to find a workaround. The two had been hanging out in bars the past few days, and with Xu Nanjing’s generous spending, they had gathered quite a bit of information and, through mutual interests, met a contact.

Xu Nanjing narrowed his eyes slightly, “Get him more drinks tonight and probe some more; we want to secure this person. Also, how are the preparations for the Panshan Highway coming along?”

“Almost done.”

“Then let’s check it out this afternoon. We have to be ready before the reporters come,” Xu Nanjing, hearing the news about Chael, was in a good mood. Turning to Bai Lian, he said, “Would little sister Bai Lian like to come have a look? There will be people doing bends this afternoon.”

After finishing her bite of food, Bai Lian looked up at Xu Nanjing, her eyes bright, “I haven’t read today.”

Xu Nanjing: “…Right.”

That’s true, little sister Bai Lian, the studious good student, probably didn’t even understand that his mention of “doing bends” referred to motorcycle racing.

After lunch, Jiang He went for a nap. Xu Nanjing took Xiao Bingwen to check out the Panshan Highway and went to the small bar to pick up the keys.
