227 Bai Family

Although Yun Yiheng’s words sounded very rude, what he said was the truth.

Western musical instruments used the five-line staff. And as Anonymous, Shen Ruojing would definitely know how to read it. On the other hand, many eastern musical instruments used numbered musical notation, so anyone who had some musical background would be able to understand it as well.

Most of the music scores for the zither today use numbered musical notation.

However, the score for this piece…was from a sole copy of a book. People who didn’t study zither extensively wouldn’t be able to understand it. Moreover, the tablature notation used in this zither score was passed down from the Tang dynasty.

It used some strange symbols and characters, differentiated between the right and left hand, and looked extremely complicated. Ordinary people would probably be unable to understand it.

Yun Yiheng’s major was in zither and he specially studied these.

This ancient book had a very long history, and its papers were so frail that they seemed as if they would scatter when blown by the wind. Therefore, the original copy was sent to professionals to fix it and was stored in the museum.

So, the few pieces of paper that Yun Yiheng was looking at were photocopies.

And there was a part of the original copy that had been damaged, thus it was hard to see it clearly. One could only try to fill in the missing part to connect the former and latter segments, but to date, no one had succeeded.

Yun Yiheng had asked his teacher for help, but his teacher was helpless as well.

In his opinion, if people who studied the zither couldn’t figure this out, how could Anonymous, who only specialized in western musical instruments, be able to understand it?

However, Shen Ruojing understood it.

She was the one who had brought this ancient book from overseas and sent it to the museum anonymously.

At this moment, her lips twitched.

When she sent it over, she had considered filling in the missing part. However, at the thought that it was left behind by the people from back then, and that flaws could be interpreted as a type of beauty, she didn’t try to do anything excessive…

She was planning to say something when Chu Yu suddenly came over. He looked up and asked, his eyes opening wide. “Mommy, are you free?”

“Yes!”

Like magic, Chu Yu somehow took out a book on Mathematics Olympiad questions, and he looked at her. “There are a few questions I don’t know. Can you teach me?”

Shen Ruojing. “?”

She had miscalculated!

When they left Sea City, it was as if they were fleeing for their lives, so how could Chu Yu have remembered to bring along his Mathematics Olympiad book?!

Her countenance instantly changed. “What did you just say?”

“There are a few mathematical questions I don’t understand. Can you teach me?”

“Not this. The previous line.”

Chu Yu was perplexed. “Mommy, are you free?”

“No. I suddenly remembered that someone asked me out to go fishing.” Shen Ruojing went downstairs in a panic.

She then heard a sneer as Yun Yiheng said in disdain, “What kind of mother are you? You don’t qualify at being one at all!”

Chu Yu couldn’t stand others saying bad things about Shen Ruojing and quickly explained, “My mommy doesn’t know how…”

“If she doesn’t know, then she should learn it! After she’s done learning it, she’ll then teach you!” Yun Yiheng looked at Chu Yu matter-of-factly and waved his hand. “Come, Uncle will help you take a look!”

Chu Yu. “… Are you sure that you know how?”

“Heh, although Uncle majors in music, my school is a national university of great importance. Back then, I got into the school with the best result!”

Yun Yiheng snatched the book that Chu Yu was holding and took a look at it. “These are so simple, but she doesn’t know how to do them?”

This was clearly addition and subtraction within 100! What was that about Mathematics Olympiad questions?

Chu Yu’s countenance turned a little colder. “Oh, I brought the wrong book. This isn’t the right one.”

He turned and went to his room, then after some time, took out a set of Mathematics Olympiad questions to hand them to Yun Yiheng. “Uncle, it’s this one.”

Yun Yiheng took a look and saw a bunch of messy unique symbols that he had seen before in his university mathematics book. He instantly recalled the horror of the risk of failing his subject!

He immediately looked at Chu Yu. “I don’t…”

Before he could finish his sentence with “know”, Chu Yu said, “Even if Uncle doesn’t know how, you’ll learn it and then teach me, right? After all, you’re a qualified uncle.”

“…”

Yun Yiheng wanted to take back his words!

–

After Shen Ruojing went downstairs, she walked in the Yun Family’s garden, feeling bored.

After a while, she suddenly heard the sounds of a conversation. She then turned and saw Qian Nanyin, who had left with Madam Qian earlier. He came back again.

At this moment, he was talking with Yun Wei. “Little Wei, introduce me to Mr. Chu.”

Yun Wei lowered her head. “My maternal cousin isn’t around.”

“How can he not be around? You just don’t want to do the introduction, right?”

Yun Wei pursed her lips. “He’s really not around.”

At this moment, Qian Nanyin’s expression turned sinister from anger. “So what if Chu Cichen is your cousin? Let me tell you, Yuyi promised to introduce me to the Bai Family! That’s one of the four major families in the capital! They are many times more amazing than the Chu Family! Why are you acting so smug?”

However, Yun Wei didn’t say a word in reply.

Seeing this, Qian Nanyin stomped his feet in anger. “Let me tell you, I won’t agree to this marriage. Even if both our parents set a wedding date, I won’t appear at the wedding! It’s so unlucky to see you in this half-dead state!”

After saying this, he turned around and left.

Yun Wei stood on the spot and clenched her fists tightly.

Just as Shen Ruojing was hesitating if she should go over and comfort her, she saw Yun Wei throwing two punches in the direction he had left and scolding, “Even if I have to go through the wedding rites with a rooster, I wouldn’t want you to appear at the wedding!”

Shen Ruojing. “…”

She suddenly saw this unknown side of her cousin!

Shen Ruojing was about to leave quietly when Yun Wei suddenly turned around. The moment Yun Wei saw her, she immediately retracted her fist and placed it in front of her, returning to her serious appearance.

“…” Shen Ruojing was silent for a moment before saying, “Cousin, my condolences?”

Yun Wei. “?”

Shen Ruojing coughed and was about to leave when Yun Wei suddenly asked, “Cousin, do you want to get a drink?”

“…”

Half an hour later.

Yun Wei drove and brought Shen Ruojing to a private restaurant in Ford City.

Neither of them said anything on the way, but their relationship seemed to have gotten closer for some reason.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Yun Wei said, “This is the most authentic restaurant in Ford City. Only the locals in Ford City know about it. When outsiders come to travel, they won’t be able to find their way to this place…”

As Yun Wei introduced the restaurant, the two of them walked toward the reserved private room.

However, after taking two steps, she suddenly heard a cry from a private room. “Grandfather? Grandfather! Hurry up and call for an ambulance!”

Shen Ruojing’s professional instincts made her walk over and push open the private room’s door. She then saw an old man lying on the ground with a pale countenance.

Beside him, there was a young man in a white suit shouting anxiously.

Moreover, a few bodyguards in black, who didn’t look like simple characters, were surrounding them. Someone was calling the doctor.

Shen Ruojing only took a glance at the old man on the ground and knew that he had a tension pneumothorax.

This was an acute illness from an accumulation of fluid in the chest, so CPR was useless. By the time the ambulance arrived, it would probably be too late to save him.

This required immediate chest drainage surgery!

Shen Ruojing immediately went up but was stopped by the bodyguards. She then said in a deep voice, “I’m a doctor.”

However, the bodyguards didn’t let her through. Instead, they looked at the young man in white.

The young man frowned. Seeing how young Shen Ruojing was, he clearly didn’t trust her that much. “No need. Our doctor will be arriving shortly.”

He felt very regretful about why he hadn’t brought along the family doctor when he brought his grandfather out for a meal!

“I’m sorry. There’s not enough time.”

Shen Ruojing only said this and then turned to say to Yun Wei, “Help me hold them back.”

After saying that, she waved her fists and kicked out the bodyguards who were stopping her. She then quickly went over to the dining table, picked up a knife, and disinfected it with the alcohol on the table.

The next moment, she lifted the old man’s clothes, pressed down on the middle line between his second rib, and pushed the knife down without hesitation!

Pffft!

Blood splattered out.

“What are you doing?”

The young man bellowed angrily and shouted, “If anything were to happen to my grandfather, our Bai Family will not let this slide!”
