Chapter 558: 222 Mysterious Bar, bringing Dean Jian to meet Alian_2

Senior students had already left the campus, and the library was not as crowded as before, so there was no need to wake up early to save a spot.

At noon, Xu Wenyao still sent Bai Lian a message, asking her to go to the third cafeteria.

Jiangjing University’s cafeterias only accepted campus cards, and knowing that she was in the library, Xu Wenyao had invited her to join them for meals.

During the summer vacation, the school had closed three cafeterias, but the third cafeteria was still open and it wasn’t far from the library. By the time Bai Lian arrived, Xu Wenyao and Chen Hong had already ordered food.

“She really did meet Dean Huang,” Chen Hong, who was also from the physics department and quite familiar with Qi Shuyun and others, said, “It’s good to have connections.”

Qi Shuyun’s family knew Dr. Zuo, and Dr. Zuo was one of Dean Huang’s PhD students.

While saying this, Chen Hong also asked Xu Wenyao with a puzzled expression, “How come you haven’t confirmed your advisor yet?”

Usually, students would decide on their advisors before the graduate entrance exams, confirm it via email. Qi Shuyun had early on confirmed Dr. Zuo, and those who knew her were envious of her joining such a powerful faction.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wenyao lowered his gaze, “I’m waiting for the results of this summer camp first.”

Chen Hong knew about the issues between him, Qi Shuyun and the others, and didn’t ask further.

Seeing Bai Lian, Chen Hong enthusiastically stood up to greet her, “Sophomore Bai.”

Today, Bai Lian wore a very loose, white long T-shirt, made of a soft fabric, embroidered with ink bamboo. Her black hair was completely swept up using two hairpins, with a white backpack casually slung over her shoulder. The lazy cat lying on top was quite eye-catching.

Chen Hong, looking at the lifelike embroidered cat, suddenly remembered, “I just recalled, sophomore, did you come to our school’s main gate last year?!”

Bai Lian sat down opposite him and looked up.

“How did you know?” Xu Wenyao was surprised; that time Bai Lian had come to deliver tickets to him.

“Damn, I knew you looked familiar when I saw you yesterday,” Chen Hong excitedly turned to Bai Lian, “The forum, the school’s forum had a sticky post with over 9999 replies, and she was the featured photo.”

Every school has its gossips, and Jiang University was no different.

Even these academic overachievers had their moments of fanboying, and Chen Hong was one of them. The Jiangjing University forum was frequented by not only Jiangjing University students but also students from other schools.

“When the new semester starts, you’re definitely going to be famous,” Chen Hong pulled out his phone to show the post to Xu Wenyao.

He wanted to show it to Bai Lian as well, but she only glanced at it casually.

Chen Hong came from an ordinary family background; people like Xu Wenyao, Qi Shuyun, and Qi Jun were the targets he strived to reach.

If he could ever cause such a sensation on the forum, he would definitely tag his friends and family to see it, but Bai Lian seemed indifferent to it.

Xu Wenyao and Chen Hong started discussing mathematical modeling, while Bai Lian sat aside, taking a photo with her phone to send to Jiang Fulai.

Then she ate her meal leisurely.

“Would it be boring for you, sophomore?” Chen Hong, caught up in excitement, noticed Bai Lian looking at her phone and quickly stopped, “Nevermind Wenyao, let’s talk about something else.”

Chen Hong feared the third-year mathematical modeling topics might be too complex for Bai Lian to understand.

“It’s okay,” Bai Lian slowly looked up, indicating she was not bored, “Just the two of you guys?”

She thought the mathematical modeling would be quite difficult with just the two of them.

Chen Hong and Xu Wenyao were sensitive to numbers, but lacked somewhat in model design.

Chen Hong put down his chopsticks, growing more curious about Bai Lian, and wondered how she guessed there was a third person: “Three people, there’s another academic genius, Qi Jun, but he’s too lazy to eat with us.”

Bai Lian nodded and asked no further questions; she had to leave in the afternoon and didn’t stay on campus any longer.

After the meal, she went across the street from the cafeteria to wait for the bus.

New entrants would soon be added to the Jingjiang Preparatory Camp app, and the rankings of Bai Lian and her peers were also about to be included in the overall ranking.

She opened up the challenge question bank and uploaded the question she had just solved in the library.

Three minutes later.

The scores for correctly solving questions in the challenge question bank would be multiplied.

In the lower left corner, her ranking changed from NO1.68587 to NO1.137174.

The bus arrived, and she got on to leave.

At the bus stop, Chen Hong and Xu Wenyao were heading to the study room. Chen Hong, looking down at his phone, stumbled upon something, “Holy shit, Wenyao, someone surging in Shen Yue points has surpassed a hundred thousand.”

Hearing this, Xu Wenyao knew Chen Hong was talking about someone specific and also took a quick look at his phone.

“This has to be someone from a lab, right? Definitely one of those people from the national team before,” Chen Hong lifted his head, muttering in disbelief, “This crazy, they’ll probably enter the overall points top ten like He Wen, right?”

Nobody believed it could be a high school graduate from this year.

In the afternoon.

Bai Lian closed her apartment door behind her and left, while doors 301 and 302 next to her were both open.
