Xu’s assistant had already calmed down.

He explained the whole situation to the two of them.

Ji Mulan found the setup hard to accept, “Are you saying that the guy who goes fishing with my dad every day, that’s the same Mr. Chen?”

She recollected how Chen Yongkun looked, with a fish basket hanging on his waist, treating Ji Shaojun like a brother, very casual, nothing like the important figure “Mr. Chen” described by He Wen and the others.

“Yes,” Xu’s assistant explained to Xu Wenyao, “Mr. Chen has already taken over the investigation. Don’t worry.”

Ji Mulan sat to one side, drank a glass of cold water, but still couldn’t settle her feelings.

Her own father had become fishing buddies with Mr. Chen?

That is—

The same person she often saw in Ji Heng’s courtyard?

Xu Wenyao didn’t expect it either, only having heard from Xu’s assistant about the Ji Family right before they came. He seized the key point, “Didn’t you say the Ji Family was just an ordinary family from Xiangcheng?”

How could they be in contact with foreign labs….

And Mr. Chen as well?

Is this really just a Xiangcheng family?

“I only just found out myself that Mr. Chen and Ji Heng are close fishing friends. But it’s true that the Ji Family has always lived on Purest Street, Ji Shaojun is a teacher, and they even have a son who has entered the Ren Family,” Xu’s assistant reflected on Bai Lian’s carefree demeanor, truly an astonishing stroke of luck.

Everything seemed so ordinary, except Mr. Chen’s presence was quite illogical.

Xu’s assistant thought for a moment and then lowered his voice, murmuring, “Young Master, there’s going to be a change in the winds in Xiangcheng.”

And Bai Lian wants to apply to Jiangjing University, it seems she’ll be heading to Jiangjing in the future.

That is—

It’s going to be a bit difficult for her to get into Jiangjing University.

Remembering this, Xu’s assistant asked, “How many days can you stay, and when will you start tutoring Miss Bai?”

Physics is Xu Wenyao’s strongest subject, and that’s also his current research field.

He had been admitted to Jiangjing University as one of the top ten in his major during the entrance exams.

Xu’s assistant felt that tutoring Bai Lian would be a challenge even for Xu Wenyao.

Monday.

Chemistry class.

Although the chemistry teacher was aloof, her hair was always sticking up.

It was because of Bai Lian’s chemistry test paper – from scoring 100 points, she had dropped to 40.

Although this test was simple, looking solely at Bai Lian’s score, it was still at the bottom of her grade, but—

It had been less than two weeks since the last joint exam, and she had scored zero then.

After school, Pu Xiaohan and her friends chattered about Bai Lian’s 40 points. Weng Qi, with the loudest voice, announced, “Alian, you have to treat us!”

Bai Lian listened to them calmly as she casually scrolled through her phone.

A new friend request popped up on her mobile—

[Hello, this is He Wen]

This was the person Jiang Fulai had mentioned to her at noon.

She accepted the request.

He Wen replied quickly: [[Screenshot]]

It was a mathematical model.

He Wen: [Thank you]

Bai Lian: [1]

Jiang Fulai had not told He Wen specifically who Bai Lian was, so He Wen thought she was just another ordinary math genius he had found.

Not far away, Director Chen, who overheard the students’ conversation: “…”

Should you treat them to a meal for scoring forty points? How dare you treat Miss Bai this way?!

“Uncle Chen.” Pu Xiaohan, Ning Xiao, and others greeted Director Chen.

Because of the Zhang Shize incident, the students from Class 15 were very familiar with Director Chen, “Uncle Chen, you’re off work so early!”

“It’s alright, it’s alright,” Director Chen said with a smile as he waved to the students.

Then he walked with Bai Lian and the others towards the Zhang Family’s place.

Ning Xiao and the others went to move the flowers first, and Director Chen, trailing a step behind Bai Lian, updated her about the investigation, “We’ve discovered a lead and are currently gathering evidence. It’s unclear how they’ve been trading.”

After contemplating for a moment, Director Chen found the connection with He Wen very odd, hard to trace.

“I understand,” Bai Lian nodded slightly, without expressing any further opinion.

Director Chen had always found it difficult to fathom what Bai Lian was thinking or trying to do; her thoughts were more inscrutable than Jiang Fulai’s.

He helped the Zhang Family move a couple of pots of flowers, then suddenly got a call about new developments in the case, which prompted Director Chen to leave.

“Are you heading to the martial arts hall?” Having moved the flowers, Pu Xiaohan took a camera out of her backpack.

Bai Lian, head down, was carefully pruning a bunch of iris flowers, “Mm.”

She was going to sign a contract with Jin Kai.

“I’ll come with you, let’s take an overall shot of the courtyard first, and then we can film another one after the renovations,” Pu Xiaohan estimated the timing – such renovation videos were popular,

This was Pu Xiaohan’s new idea, to film all the shops and artisans on that street.

Once the tourist route was established, the number of visitors for check-ins would likely increase as well.

Xiangcheng Culture and Tourism had contacted Pu Xiaohan, hoping she could help with the promotional activities for Xiangcheng Culture and Tourism. Upon finding out that Pu Xiaohan was a high school senior, the bureau quietly set aside the plan for the time being.
