Whenever Bai Lian was mentioned, Ren Wanxuan’s smile faded, her expression indifferent.

Ji Heng might have a special fondness for Bai Lian, which was fine since she was indifferent towards Ji Hengs attitude.

But why did Ren Qian, who had only met Bai Lian twice, also care so much about her?

The Ren Family had tried so long to set up a dinner with Dr. Gao, presenting many gifts before securing the arrangement, yet Ren Qian casually decided to include Bai Lian with just a few words.

“Grandpa, do you not know? Bai Lian scored 85 in the comprehensive science,” Ren Wanxuan said emotionlessly, “Dr. Gao is an elite; do you think she can understand what he says? We’ve finally managed to invite Dr. Gao. What if she offends him with an inadvertent comment? Who would we turn to then?”

Her words left the driver and the passenger in the front seat barely daring to breathe loudly.

Chen Zhu, seated beside her, didn’t speak up for Bai Lian either.

To him, what Ren Wanxuan said was the truth and there was nothing to argue about.

Moreover, even if he took a step back, he wouldn’t choose to speak for Bai Lian at this time.

Ren Qian did appreciate Bai Lian a bit; he had indeed looked down upon the Ji Family.

Seeing Ren Qian silent, Ren Wanxuan couldn’t hold back, “Are you planning to send the Ji Family a lot of things? Stop the car—stop the car!”

She banged hard on the window.

Ren Wanxuan was always pampered at home and had become willful; the driver dared not ignore her, stopping the car by the roadside. Ren Wanxuan got out of the car and walked along the street alone.

She had always done as she pleased at home.

Chen Zhu glanced at her, took his phone, and prepared to follow her out of the car. Ren Qian let out a sigh, “I’m embarrassed. Chen Zhu, please keep an eye on her.’

Chen Zhu nodded, “l understand.’

As the car stood still and watched the two of them disappear into the night, the secretary- general in the front passenger seat finally asked, “Sir, shall we still inform Miss Bai?”

“Forget it,” Ren Qian said.

“The young lady isn’t wrong,” the secretary- general instructed the driver to start driving, looking back at the fading figures in the night, “Miss Bai would not be very useful if she went, at most she’d get a glimpse of the world.”

Although Ren Wanxuan’s words were colored with her own emotions, she didn’t speak without reason.

Whether Bai Lian could understand the speech of these knowledgeable individuals was still a question.

If something like today’s embarrassment where “evaluating Liang Zewen’s apprentice” happened, then the purpose of ingratiating with the Gao Family would not be achieved; instead, it would be an embarrassment.

“If only she were as worry-free as Bai Lian, first set a time with Dr. Gao,” Ren Qian rubbed his forehead, “The selection for the Jingjiang Preparatory Camp by Xiangcheng No. 1 High School is about to start.”

He saw the rebelliousness in Bai Lian, but she always listened to Ji Heng.

The secretary- general was taken aback by Ren Qian’s perception of Bai Lian.

The next day.

Monday, Bai Lian returned home late but still rose before six o’clock.

She was waiting for the bus at the Purest Street intersection before seven.

There was a seat at the bus stop, but Bai Lian preferred to stand, leaning on the platform and watching the traffic and passersby.

The elderly grandparents who got up early to buy groceries had grown accustomed to this young girl often staring at the streets and crowds, with one aunt even insisting on giving Bai Lian an egg.

Unable to refuse, Bai Lian held the egg in her hand.

Once the aunt’s bus arrived, Bai Lian saw them off before continuing to watch the street.

Across the street, an old lady with a bag was picking up trash along the sidewalk. She looked very old with gray hair and moved in an unhurried manner.

Despite her age, she held her back straight.

She wore an oversized camouflage shirt, with simple floral patterns embroidered on the cuffs.

The last few days had been drizzly, causing some moss to grow near the trash can. Bai Lian, with her good eyesight, spotted the moss under the old ladys feet.

Before she could warn her, the old lady slipped.

“Are you okay?” Bai Lian ran over to help her up.

The old lady lifted her head, her face creased deeply, her eyes cloudy but her spirit good, looking very gentle, “Young girl, thank you.”

Bai Lian helped her sit down by the roadside.

Across the street, the number 12 bus arrived.

The old lady recognized her school uniform and looked worried, “Your bus is here.’

But Bai Lian was in no hurry. She squeezed the old ladys ankle and looked up. The rising sun shone on her jet-black hair, full of vitality, “You’ve twisted your ankle.”

As she spoke, she applied force with her hand and realigned the old lady’s twisted ankle.

“You’re quite skilled, have you studied medicine?” The number 12 bus had already left, and the old lady stared at her for a moment, surprised at how quickly Bai Lian fixed her twisted ankle before asking, “Do you live around here? I don’t think I’ve seen you before..”
