“How is your sister-in-law feeling?” Director Chen hadn’t visited Shen Qing today; he only dropped Ji Heng off here. “I see Brother Ji has been in good spirits these past two days.”

“Not bad,” Ji Heng replied, looking down and taking a drag from his cigarette. It was only when he saw Bai Lian get out of the car that he said, “She’s here now; you don’t have to wait with me anymore.”

“Miss Bai,” Director Chen straightened up as he saw Bai Lian.

He called Ji Heng ‘Uncle’ and Ji Shaojun ‘Brother’.

And he still called Bai Lian ‘Miss Bai.’

After all, everyone addressed each other in their own way.

Standing two steps away, Bai Lian looked through the glass and saw the elegantly dressed Madame Song. As Ji Heng walked over, she listened to an English recording and asked, “What do you want to see her for?”

“Don’t ask,” Ji Heng exhaled a cloud of smoke, his voice unclear.

He stubbed out his cigarette before entering the coffee shop.

Sitting by the window inside the coffee shop, Madame Song was sitting upright. She had been holding her coffee and had noticed Ji Heng and Director Chen at the door for some time.

Ji Heng was wearing the kind of traditional Chinese attire he made himself, the very picture of a common man from Xiangcheng.

Madame Song hadn’t paid much attention until Bai Lian walked in with Ji Heng.

Only then did she realize that this man was likely Bai Lian’s grandfather, Ji Mulan’s father.

“Mr. Ji, hello,” Madame Song greeted Ji Heng very politely, inviting both to sit across from her and ordering coffee for them, “Bai Ao will drink, right?”

“No need,” Bai Lian said, sitting next to Ji Heng, tapping her fingertips on the table, “Just speak directly to me if you have something to say.”

“Song Min hasn’t arrived yet,” said Madame Song, somewhat embarrassed. She had called Song Min, speaking in a low voice, “Alian and her grandfather are here; where are you?”

At the other end of the phone, Song Min hesitated before replying, “I was discussing a topic with Shaoqi and forgot. Give me ten minutes.”

Madame Song had long been aware that Song Min wasn’t very concerned about matters regarding Bai Lian.

She looked up, helplessly explaining to Ji Heng and Bai Lian.

Ji Heng had always been a man of few words. He set his pipe on the table, grunted in acknowledgement, and said no more.

Bai Lian glanced at Ji Heng, and seeing that he was still waiting, she closed her reading app and sent a message back to Lance on WeChat. Only then did she open an app, took a pen and a neatly folded piece of paper from the hidden pocket of her long skirt, and began to work on a question.

A newly released question on optical physics.

Not overly difficult, she glanced at it, quickly sketched the refraction angles on the paper, and began writing down the solution at a measured pace.

Ji Heng watched from the side; she never used a ruler when she drew.

By the time Song Min arrived, Bai Lian had just finished writing. She was taking a photo of the analysis she had completed.

“He’s here,” Madame Song stood, allowing Song Min to come over, then turned to introduce him to Ji Heng, “This is my son.”

Ji Heng looked up, turning his attention to Song Min.

He had heard from Ji Mulan the previous night that Bai Lian was quite fond of this young man.

Today, he was here to see for himself.

Song Min, tall and long-legged, sat next to Madame Song, making the space feel a bit cramped. His demeanor was cold, and he only spared Ji Heng a glance, “Hello.”

As for Bai Lian, he didn’t even look at her.

He just casually took out his phone and lowered his head to open a question bank.

Outside.

Director Chen hadn’t left yet.

He was waiting here, ready to take Bai Lian and Ji Heng back later.

When he looked up, he saw Song Min sitting opposite Bai Lian, and his expression changed drastically. He quickly took a photo and sent it to Jiang Fulai—

[Not good, Young Master Jiang, Miss Bai is on a blind date!]

“Song Min is using the Jiangjing University app; he prefers to solve problems online and is even ranked in the top fifty for this month,” said Madame Song to Ji Heng, smiling as she spoke.

Song Min had always been someone to be proud of.

However, the two people across from her had no reaction.

Madame Song paused, then shook her head, Ji Heng probably didn’t know what that was, and as for Bai Lian… She previously tried to cheat her way to getting that spot but didn’t succeed, so she likely didn’t understand what the ranking meant.

“This is the situation, Mr. Ji,” Madame Song decided to be direct, “The children were previously engaged, and we gave Alian a Jade Pendant. Now that the engagement has been called off, do you think the Jade Pendant should be returned? I know it was the Song Family’s fault for breaking off the engagement, and this is our compensation.”

She pushed forward a bank card.

Now that Bai Lian had left the Bai Family, seeing her with her grandfather, they must need money.

Ji Heng didn’t say a word, nor did he look at the bank card, simply turning his head to gaze at Bai Lian.

Bai Lian was busy uploading her answer to the app.

On hearing this, she slightly raised her head; the light came through the window and fell upon her face, lending her marble-like complexion an extra hint of rosy allure. However, her dark eyes were clearly puzzled

Jade Pendant?

She searched her mind for this detail, trying to recall the Jade Pendant.

Bai Lian remained silent, and no sound came from the coffee table.

Madame Song put down her coffee cup and quietly watched Bai Lian, knowing that today it would be difficult to get the Jade Pendant back.

Song Min finally looked up, directly at Bai Lian for the first time, “What exactly do you want this time to give up the Jade Pendant? Another million in compensation? Or perhaps, I could try my best to talk to the school authorities and help you apply for a spot on the Jiangjing University app. How about that? Would you hand over the Jade Pendant then?”
