Chapter 561: 222 Mysterious Bar, bringing Dean Jian to meet Alian_5

But Gao Yan felt that none had the aura of the person in front of her now.

As she was thinking, Bai Lian entered the room with Jiang Fulai carrying two books behind her. He was dressed in a soft, casual outfit, yet his usually stern expression hung like frost.

“Auntie,” Jiang Fulai lifted his head, taking the rare initiative to greet someone.

He placed the two books on the table, and the unsociable chill about him dissipated.

Gao Yan snapped back to reality, she glanced inadvertently at Jiang Fulai, then turned her gaze to Bai Lian, wanting to reach out and pull her hand, but was held back by Xu Nanjing, who emotionlessly urged her to be reserved.

Gao Yan shot Xu Nanjing a glance and had to settle for greeting Bai Lian, “You’re Lianlian, right?”

“Auntie, hello,” Bai Lian looked up and greeted her sincerely.

Pretty, and well-behaved.

This was straight out of a dream, Gao Yan covered her chest.

Uncle Lin stepped forward to attend to them.

Jiang Fulai then placed the books on the table and pulled out a chair on one side, indicating for Bai Lian to sit down.

Uncle Lin, who was about to serve, paused for a long moment upon seeing Jiang Fulai’s hand resting on the teapot, then stepped back to become invisible.

Xu Nanjing sat next to Jiang Fulai, unsurprised by this behavior.

In a muted demeanor, Gao Yan watched Jiang Fulai serve tea, then saw him pass the tea to Bai Lian, and couldn’t help but think, “So you have these days too?”

She took out her phone and sent a message to Gao Shu, her attention briefly on the books Jiang Fulai had set aside.

They were two music theory books.

Everyone knew that Young Master Jiang hadn’t studied music but had once taken up Chinese painting for a while, almost scaring a well-known teacher to death.

Those books must belong to Bai Lian then.

She genuinely liked the guzheng, Gao Yan sighed with relief, resting the black folding fan in the crook of her hand, very familiarly said, “Lianlian, I’m going down to bring someone up, wait for me for a few minutes.”

With Bai Lian present, Jiang Fulai and Xu Nanjing were made invisible by Gao Yan.

Xu Nanjing watched Gao Yan and Uncle Lin walk away, utterly impressed.

Downstairs.

Gao Yan was coming down to receive President Jian.

President Jian was a cultural heritage expert and the president of Jiangyin Academy. He barely intersected with the Jiangjing circle, with his only connection being Old Master Chen.

Gao Yan knew that she was able to invite him only because he respected Old Master Chen.

“I don’t know if he would be willing to take on a student,” Gao Yan said to Uncle Lin, “Look at Leng Shuhe, doing so well in the circles now. If he accepts Lianlian…”

Bai Lian was from Xiangcheng, appeared so well-mannered and had no significant background.

Even Gao Si couldn’t escape the clutches of the Jiang Family, which devoured without a trace.

Gao Yan began to worry about her, so if President Jian was willing to take Bai Lian…

Seeing the delight on Gao Yan’s face, Uncle Lin realized that Miss Bai must have a special place in her heart, at least, Xu Jinyi stood no chance, “President Jian doesn’t lack students.”

That was true, sighed Gao Yan.

Her gaze caught the elderly man just arriving in the lobby, and she quickly approached him with utmost respect, “President Jian, thank you for making the trip.”

Gao Yan knew that President Jian was not only a leading figure in the guzheng but also a distinguished guest of Old Master Chen. The two were very close, and even the old master of the Xu Family would show deference to President Jian.

Uncle Lin also bowed respectfully.

Meeting Gao Yan for the first time, President Jian greeted her without any sign of inferiority or arrogance, “Madam.”

Gao Yan led him straight to the private room. Facing such a master of the arts world, Gao Yan felt a little pressure, “It’s a junior from my family who really likes the guzheng.”

She explained to President Jian as she opened the door.

President Jian nodded, following Gao Yan inside.

Bamboo Room.

President Jian stepped in and immediately saw the person seated at the table, facing away from him, who claimed to be “studying hard” at the library according to himself.

Very good.

President Jian thought calmly.
