Bai Lian was studying earnestly, caring little about what she might lose.

But their glance happened to fall on the book that Tang Ming was flipping through casually.

The previous evening, it was Bai Lian who had explained the problems, and when Tang Ming didn’t understand, he asked her. He quickly grasped it and found time to look at Jiangjing University’s Physics materials, half of which consisted of a comprehensive analysis of theorems in optics, electromagnetism, and kinematics.

The other half was about the principles and results of experiments conducted in the laboratory.

Tang Ming didn’t seem as relaxed as Ning Xiao; after flipping through a few pages, he returned the book to Ning Xiao with a frown, “I won’t look at it now, I’ll check your notes later.”

Ning Xiao took it back.

Ren Wanxuan’s group, watching the two pass the book back and forth so casually, couldn’t help but feel envious.

“They treat that book so carelessly,” the group gave up talking about what Bai Lian was missing, their minds a swirl of sentiments, “If it were mine, I would look through it every day.”

They would definitely not treat it with such indifference as Bai Lian and the others did.

Ren Wanxuan and Chen Zhu left the room.

“Do they have any idea how important the experiments in the back are…” another voice whispered softly.

“A waste on the undeserving,” Ren Wanxuan pursed her lips.

What was Bai Lian thinking?

She clearly didn’t look at it and gave it away casually, yet she was unwilling to sell it to the Ren Family?

Eight o’clock.

The trio of Bai Lian still left together as always.

It wasn’t until they were gone that the others in the room turned to look at Bai Lian’s side.

They too knew what Bai Lian had, but obviously, Ren Wanxuan had animosity towards Bai Lian, and with the Crown Class being so renowned at school, even if they wanted to befriend Bai Lian, they wouldn’t dare to do so openly.

Especially since…

Initially, they also harbored animosity towards Bai Lian, who didn’t seem approachable.

They had their reasons, but Zhu Jiaren was obviously in the same group as Bai Lian, “Jiaren, what’s going on? Aren’t you in the same group?”

Zhu Jiaren’s smile was stiff.

She had no idea Bai Lian would have that book.

If she had known earlier, even if she knew it would only help Bai Lian during the class group discussion, she would not have refused.

Perhaps it was for that reason Bai Lian didn’t let her join.

Milk Tea Shop.

Chief Chen, from behind the glass, was shocked to see Jiang He flipping through a very thick dictionary, “Mr. Ming, how come you are here?”

“Jiang Shao will be here later,” Ming Dongheng responded coolly, not planning to elaborate.

Chief Chen didn’t even dare to meddle in Jiang Fulai’s affairs.

Ming Dongheng was always so cool; his reaction wasn’t a bit surprising.

He was waiting for Jiang Fulai to return today, but had found the estate empty.

It was only after contacting Ming Dongheng that he found out they were here.

Looking at the Milk Tea Shop’s simple decor and cramped space, Chief Chen thought that it didn’t seem to match Jiang Fulai’s status at all.

“They have given up searching for your master, Chen Jingyu has found Tongpa,” Chief Chen suddenly remembered something and spoke to Ming Dongheng with a serious expression.

Ming Dongheng frowned, “I know, I’m trying to contact my master now.”

As they were talking, three figures in Xiangcheng No. 1 High School uniforms approached from the direction of the school gate.

Chief Chen casually glanced over and was slightly taken aback upon seeing the lazy-looking girl walking alongside them.

The girl in the No. 1 High School uniform carelessly slung her backpack over one shoulder, holding a vocabulary book in the other hand, with a lock of hair softly resting on her brow ridge, she marched straight towards the Milk Tea Shop.

Without turning a corner.

“Miss Bai,” Chief Chen promptly greeted her politely as she approached.

Ning Xiao and Tang Ming didn’t recognize Chief Chen, but they sensed his imposing presence.

They entered the Milk Tea Shop first. Bai Lian, one step behind them, idly pressed on her vocabulary book with her fair fingertips and nodded to him, “Hello.”

Her eyes and brows were always calm, and she handled everything unruffled.

It was as if it didn’t matter to her whether she was facing a beggar or a king; they might not even be as important as the Word Slash App on her phone.

It wasn’t until Bai Lian sat down next to Jiang He that Chief Chen realized something was amiss.

The Milk Tea Shop was not open for business at this time.

What were these three doing here?

While he was still surprised, a black car slowly pulled up by the roadside.

Jiang Fulai got out from the back, a slim black laptop resting on his wrist.

“Young Master Jiang,” Chief Chen gathered his thoughts, his hands hanging by his side, and spoke respectfully.

Jiang Fulai stopped.

In his light grey coat, he always seemed exceptionally cool; his gaze calmly landed on Chief Chen, “What are we still missing?”

Chief Chen reported the matter at hand, “Wang Youfeng was spotted on Backter Street today; he had been shot before, so he’s only emerged now. We can now be fairly certain he has the MT-035 mineral in his possession. That old fox is probably waiting for a few companies to enter a bidding war.”

As a world-famous mineral merchant, meeting Wang Youfeng was not easy.
