Chapter 317: 122 Call for Pickup God, Break Out of the Encirclement (Second Update)_1



the car had a Jiangjing license plate.

It came to a steady stop in front of the two, and the passenger-side window rolled down.

Xu Wenyao finally got a clear view of the person in the driver’s seat. The person was wearing a Bluetooth headset, seemingly in the middle of a conversation just a second ago. The black shirt at the wrist was casually rolled up, and slender fingertips rested on the steering wheel, only glancing at Xu Wenyao briefly.

It was an aloofness that seemed to emanate from the bones.

Just one glance was enough to feel the chilling disdain.

“Goodbye.” Bai Lian opened the car door, nodded slightly at Xu Wenyao, her demeanor neither cold nor warm, measuring the distance perfectly.

By the time Xu Wenyao came back to his senses, the window had closed, and the blue car had already driven away.

“Wenyao,” Ji Mulan called out from inside the courtyard as she saw Xu Wenyao standing still at the entrance, “Why are you still standing outside?”

“Ah,” Xu Wenyao snapped back to reality, hiding his inner doubts, “It’s nothing.”

As he walked towards the house, he glanced back in the direction the car had gone.

He felt that he had seen that person somewhere before.

In the car.

Bai Lian, as usual, pulled out an English book and listened to the English original.

“That one just now,” came Jiang Fulai’s casual voice from the driver’s seat, “is the guy who’s good at physics?”

He emphasized the words “good at physics” very heavily.

“His name is Xu Wenyao, and he’s also from Jiangjing University.” Bai Lian looked up at Jiang Fulai.

Jiang Fulai: “Huh, never heard of him.”

Bai Lian was surprised, “The Xu Family said he’s very impressive.”

Jiang Fulai spared her a glance, “You ‘heard’?”

“Then you’ve heard a lot. What else did you hear?” he asked politely.

That topic was going nowhere, so Bai Lian decided to change the subject, asking about the special training camp instead.

Bai Lian had little expectation for Xu En’s and Ji Mulan’s wedding, but with Ji Heng, Ji Shaojun, and Shen Qing going to Jiangjing, Bai Lian wasn’t too at ease.

“January 19th?” Jiang Fulai mused upon hearing the date, looking at Bai Lian, “That’s close to the Lunar New Year, the special training camp will be on break. Are you going to Jiangjing?”

“I probably will,” Bai Lian said lazily, leaning back in her seat and pressing the play button on her English listening device, “My grandparents are going.”

“Oh.”

Beicheng.

The Song Family.

Madam Song received the wedding invitation from Ji Mulan.

Ji Mulan was quite well-known at Beicheng University back in the day, and Madam Song, who hadn’t made it into Jiangjing University, also attended a university in Beicheng and was Ji Mulan’s roommate.

When Ji Mulan married into the Bai Family, and she into the Song Family, the two of them could be considered close friends.

Later, when Bai Qiming had an illegitimate child, Ji Mulan left Beicheng in disgrace, becoming the butt of many jokes.

Now Ji Mulan was remarrying, and to someone from Jiangjing again.

Of course, Madam Song would not be omitted from the invitation list.

“The Xu Family?” Madam Song was also quite surprised by the invitation, “Her luck…”

It was remarkable that she could remarry so well.

She had married down to the Song Family from Jiangjing, while Ji Mulan, after leaving the Bai Family, turned right around and got married in Jiangjing. Looking at the gilt-edged opulence of the wedding arrangements, it was still a renowned hotel in Jiangjing.

It indicated that the Xu Family regarded Ji Mulan with no small measure of esteem.

Mr. Song, not being from Jiangjing, didn’t know much about the Xu Family, “So, was our last annulment too hasty?”

Hearing this, Madam Song glanced toward Song Min and Bai Shaoqi, who were sitting not far away on the sofa.

“Not really hasty,” Madam Song weighed the pros and cons, “To the Xu Family, she’s still a stepdaughter. Whether or not they’ll allow her into the family shrine is another matter. Moreover, Bai Shaoke has reportedly been successful in entering a lab, and Shaoqi has caught the eye of Dean Jian. After the final exams, she’s going to Jiangjing Music Academy for early studies…”

Being part of the Xu Family alone was not enough.

Bai Lian had fundamental issues. If she couldn’t secure her position in the Bai Family, how could she stand firm in the Xu Family?

Listening to Madam Song’s analysis, Mr. Song also felt that she was making sense, looking at Song Min and Bai Shaoqi.

Bai Shaoqi had ambitions to follow Bai Shaoke’s steps and get admitted to Jiangjing University. They were both very capable on their own; Bai Lian’s troubles didn’t quite compare.

On the sofa.

Song Min and Bai Shaoqi were discussing a math problem from an app.

They had stopped doing the problems from Beicheng High School and now focused on app problems, consulting Bai Shaoke on anything they didn’t understand. Their math scores had improved a lot in the past two months.

“Why hasn’t God Shan done this problem yet?” Bai Shaoqi was staring at the final math question on the app.

On the phone screen, a bunch of people were wailing.

[Liang God says he can’t do it either!]

[Who came up with this problem? It’s so twisted]

[Calling on God Shan…]

[God Shan hasn’t shown up in eight hundred years; what on earth is the big god up to lately?]
