The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 850 - 330 incident occurred, Qinglong Bar!_3

The very top only held a single ancestral tablet, from their Chen Family’s forebear—

Chen Ye.

To the right above Chen Ye was a faded portrait, a woman in white holding a long spear, her clothing billowing, emanating a sense of free-spirited elegance.

If there were any students from Jiang University here, they would surely recognize that the pose of the woman in white with the spear was almost identical to the statue of a famous figure at their university.

Chen Beixuan’s mind gradually overlapped Bai Lian with the portrait.

"I think it’s her," the elder Chen said reverently as he paid his respects to these ancestors.

Chen Beixuan understood what the elder meant.

On June 7, Zhang Shize had his college entrance exam.

The hair dryer that the Wen Family collaborated on with the Aerospace Bureau went on sale network-wide.

The stock prices grew exponentially, and the seawater purification project that the Mu Family was involved in was put on the daily agenda. This month, three of the Mu Family’s abandoned research institutes had applied for research funding, and recruitment for construction was underway.

Many professors and researchers participated in the uranium extraction from seawater, including Ning Xiao.

Mu Zhendong never brought up Ren Wanxuan to Mu Yining and Ji Heng again after reconnecting with the Dong Family.

Meanwhile, Ren Qian had called Ren Jiawei midway through, only to be outright rejected by her.

After completing the exams, Zhang Shize followed Chi Yundai to various lectures and entered several courthouses.

On June 24, the exam results were announced.

Zhang Shize scored tenth nationally; not as sensational as Ning Xiao, but still enough to make the students from the affiliated high school of Jiang University question their lives, especially since this kid was the last in his class when he joined the school the previous year.

As soon as the results were out, Zhang’s mother’s phone was bombarded with calls from various admissions offices.

This wasn’t just the top ten in the school, but the top ten in the nation, and even Jiang University was calling nonstop.

Zhang’s father wasn’t at home either.

In early July, Zhang Shize’s grandparents arrived in Jiangjing, and the Zhang Family joyfully prepared a celebration banquet for him at a hotel.

Bai Lian, Ning Xiao, Tang Ming, and Chi Yundai all sat at the main table.

The Zhang Family was well aware that without these few people, Zhang Shize might still be working on a sewing machine or could have already been sentenced to death, let alone achieve a national tenth place in the exams.

The group feasted merrily.

Zhang’s mother sat with Shen Qing, looking at the group of young people, and whispered to Shen Qing, "It’s just a shame, his father and Mr. Jiang are missing."

The Zhang Family wouldn’t dare to call Jiang Fulai "Xiaojiang" as boldly as the Ji Family did.

"Yes," Shen Qing felt uneasy not having seen Jiang Fulai for so long; she glanced toward Bai Lian, who was pulling the tab off a beer can with one hand, and sighed, "I wonder how much longer Xiaojiang will be gone."

Most wanted to know the answer to this question.

But no one dared to ask Bai Lian.

Ji Heng sat opposite Bai Lian with Director Chen, holding a small glass and drinking baijiu with a few others, idle, leaning back in his chair with a beer, not talking much.

Amidst his thoughts,

his phone buzzed in his pocket, Bai Lian lowered his lashes.

It was a call from Academician Ma.

In the private room, Tang Ming and others were playing drinking games with Zhang Shize, making a lot of noise, Bai Lian stepped outside to take the call, "Academician Ma."

On the other end of the call, Academician Ma didn’t speak right away.

Through the electric current, there was only his heavy breathing to be heard.

Bai Lian listened quietly, and after a moment, her expression changed, "Academician Ma, where are you?!"

Ma’s side continued with difficult breaths, the signal was poor, intermittent.

"EVB..." Academician Ma uttered a string of numbers and then said, "And, that problem I left with you last time."

He didn’t say where he was.

Before he left, he had given Bai Lian a probability combination problem; she had a good memory, so even if Academician Ma only mentioned it once, she would remember the numbers he said to her.

After he finished,

Bai Lian wanted to ask more, but the line went dead.

She looked down, her fingers pressing the numbers on the screen, tried calling Academician Ma back, but couldn’t get through.

Her fingers, slightly unsteady, went back to her contacts, pressing the number to dial out again.

This time it was Jiang Fulai, and it didn’t go through either.

Bai Lian held her phone, standing in the hallway for quite some time, not returning to the private room, instead, she sent a message to Zhang Shize and went straight downstairs.

She also couldn’t reach Ming Dongheng on his phone.

The hotel elevator was busy; Bai Lian didn’t take it, she went straight down the stairs.

Downstairs, Chen Beixuan had just arrived.

After Ming left, she essentially took over Xiaoming’s role,

protecting Bai Lian and Jiang He on a daily basis.

But Bai Lian rarely called her, mostly sending her to pick up Jiang He, and now with the summer vacation, Chen Beixuan had some free time. Today, she even brought a gift for Zhang Shize’s promotion.

"Miss Bai?" Chen Beixuan got out of the car, noting Bai Lian’s complexion, "Where are you going?"

Clearly, she hadn’t received the news yet.

Bai Lian opened the back door of the car, her face growing cold, "Qinglong Bar."
