Chapter 223 Who is Bai Zian?

 Dean Jian paused at the door.

Gao Yan observed this, and just as she was about to ask, Dean Jian walked inside as if nothing had happened.

 The bamboo-shaped box is large, and there is a place to display music, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as board games for fun.

Xu Nanjing observed them coming in from the corner of her eye, put down her tea cup, stood up directly and whispered to Bai Zian, "Sister A Zian, my mother will introduce you to an old gentleman. He has arrived."

Bai Zian tilted his head and politely stood up with Xu Nanjing.

Gao Yan led Dean Jian through the screen and walked in. She was wearing a well-tailored cheongsam, showing her unique temperament, and the black jade folding fan was placed elegantly in her palm.

Uncle Lin followed Dean Jian and pulled out the chair for him.

Gao Yan only leaned forward slightly to introduce Bai Qian to Dean Jian, "Mr. Jian, this is the junior I'm telling you about."

After she finished speaking, she found that Dean Jian was just standing there quietly, looking at Bai Qian indifferently, his face expressionless and motionless.

Gao Yan paused for a moment, then turned to Bai Xian, "Xian Xian, this is Dean Jian."

 Bai Zian is also very silent.

this…

 Having a bad aura?

Gao Yan clenched her folding fan and looked at Xu Nanjing subconsciously. Xu Nanjing didn't know why.

Jiang Fuli just sat quietly next to Bai Qian, pouring himself a cup of tea unhurriedly, elegant and leisurely.

 The entire box was quiet except for the sound of him pouring tea.

 The atmosphere cooled down.

Gao Yan looked at Dean Jian's expressionless face and began to think that she was too reckless and seemed to have messed up a bit.

 Bai Qian must have never heard of Dean Jian.

She put down the folding fan, and Uncle Lin beside her quickly came over to pour tea for Dean Jian to lighten the atmosphere, "Miss Bai, this is Mr. Jian, who is also a guzheng master."

Then he said to Dean Jian, "Mr. Jian, this is Miss Bai, Bai Xian, a distinguished guest of the Xu family."

After Uncle Lin finished speaking, Dean Jian sat on the chair coldly and glanced over: "She is Bai Zian? Who is that person who studies hard in the library?"

Jiang Fuli paused slightly as he picked up the teacup and drank tea.

 “Come out and buy books.” Bai Qian nodded slightly to Gao Yan, then pointed at the modern music theory placed next to Jiang Fuli with her fingertips.

Dean Jian put his hands on the armrest and glanced over, "Don't fool me."

“I’ve finished reading the performance you sent me, and they didn’t control the strength of their touch on the strings well,” Bai Qian said calmly, “There’s no tension in the tone in the second measure.”

When talking about his major, Dean Jian immediately sat up straight, "You feel the same way, right? Their fingers are so weak that they don't show any momentum at all..."

 When he spoke, his face was not as deep as before, and his fingertips tapped the armrest rhythmically, in a very relaxed state.

He has a kind brow and a pair of cloudy eyes that shine brightly when he gets interested in the conversation.

 The two have begun to communicate.

Gao Yan next to her was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was doing and looked at Xu Nanjing.

 These two people obviously know each other. Not only do they know each other, but they are also very familiar with each other?

Xu Nanjing was also quite confused. He watched the two of them finish talking about the same topic, and finally asked Bai Zian, "Sister A'zian, do you know Dean Jian?"

 Dean Jian, even Gao Yan wanted to borrow Mr. Chen’s face when she wanted to invite him.

 Is that something you can recognize if you want to?

 “Yes.” Bai Zian nodded slightly towards him.

　　Very light and calm.

 How did she manage to be so indifferent?

Didn’t you see that Dean Jian’s other two apprentices, Li Jiu and Liu Shuhe, had taken advantage of Dean Jian’s east wind to rise to great heights?

 Xu Nanjing: “…”

Gao Yan glanced at him, implying that he was useless.

 She and Xu Nanjing sat down again without disturbing the chat between Bai Zian and Bai Zian.

The layman couldn't understand when the two talked about fingering. Gao Yan just looked at Bai Qian.

Bai Qian is sitting on the chair, her back is very straight, her left hand is slightly resting on the table, her sitting posture is very graceful, but extremely relaxed. This kind of posture may not be possessed even by the children of Jiangjing's aristocratic family who have received special etiquette training.

Listening to Bai Qian's words again, she can pick up on whatever Dean Jian says, and her cultural heritage can be heard in just a few sentences.

 Permeated in her conversation and temperament.

If the scene were changed and she didn't know Bai Zian, she would definitely think that Bai Zian was a child of some aristocratic family.

only…

Gao Yan exhaled. She remembered that Xu Nanjing said that Bai Zian was from Xiangcheng, and the economy had never developed there, and it had only undergone huge changes in the past year.

   **

 Finish a meal.

Bai Qian and Dean Jian were still walking together, chatting here and there.

“When will you come to Jiangjing to pay homage to the ancestor?” Dean Jian was talking to Bai Qian, and the ancestor he was talking about was naturally Mr. Qin Jiu.

The attitude of these two people chatting is more like the kind of friendship that lasts forever.

 The group of people said goodbye at the door.

Gao Yan looked at Bai Zian and handed her the meeting gift, "At first, I thought you and Dean Jian didn't have the right aura."

How did you know that Bai Zian is so familiar with Dean Jian?

Dean Jian knew who Gao Yan and Xu Nanjing were, and also knew that they were very friendly and close to Bai Jian.

He opened his mouth to explain, "I have been looking for her for several days, and she kept saying that she was very busy and wanted to read. In the afternoon, she also said that she was studying hard in the library. I saw her at Mrs. Gao in the evening. I would like to thank Mrs. Gao this time. Otherwise, she might have to read until school starts."

 Speaking of this, Dean Jian glanced at Bai Xian.

What do you want to say? Seeing Jiang's long -body Yu Li from his side, his pale gaze swept over, and Dean Jian got on the Xu family to pick up his car with depression.

 Farewell to them.

Jiang Fuli also took the car keys and left with Bai Qian.

After everyone else has left.

Uncle Lin looked at Gao Yan in confusion: "Madam, Mr. Jian just seemed to say...how many days has he been looking for Miss Bai?"

Bai Qian is still perfunctory with him?

Dean Jian was very distant when talking to Gao Yan. He was different from their aristocratic families. Dean Jian represented the traditional music school and also acted as the face of domestic traditional music internationally.

People like Mr. Chen have great respect for him. Not to mention the students of Dean Jian, they all support Dean Jian when they are mentioned outside.

As for Dean Jian’s attitude towards Shang Baiqian, no one would dare to believe it.

This is really unpredictable. The capital has never heard of Bai Zian.

 Who is Bai Zian? She is so familiar with Dean Jian that people in Jiangyin can be frightened.

Gao Yan was also confused, "You also said that Dean Jian has no shortage of students."

 Uncle Lin: “…”

 The communication between Dean Jian and Bai Zian was completely that of equals.

Gao Yan lowered her head and looked at her small folding fan. She remembered that Bai Yan had looked at her folding fan several times and told Uncle Lin: "You can customize a folding fan with white jade bones."

Her folding fan bone is made of black jade, but she feels that white jade is suitable for the flawless white jade.

“Mom,” Xu Nanjing stood on the side of the road with one hand in her pocket, not thinking clearly, “Sister A’zi plays the guzheng very well? But I’ve never heard of her name.”

Gao Yan glanced at him irritably, a little disgusted: "What's the use of you?"

She got into the car, closed the back door, and then told the driver to drive.

Xu Nanjing was left where he was, looking at Uncle Lin with his mouth open.

Uncle Lin also frowned and looked at him, "Master, you don't seem to care about Miss Bai."

This "Young Master" is said with dissatisfaction.

 Xu Nanjing: “…”

Okay, okay, he was the clown during the whole meal, right?

   **

 This way.

At the door of Jiangyin, Mrs. Song and Mr. Yin were standing next to Bai Shaoqi, who was talking to a middle-aged man.

This is the performance teacher introduced to Bai Shaoqi by Principal Luo, Teacher Ning.

Mr. Yin also took the time to come and chat with Mr. Ning.

As the group of people were talking, a car stopped at the door. It had a black body and a red flag on the left side.

Mr. Yin looked at the license plate, a black license plate in Xingjiang District. He quickly stood up straight and looked straight over.

This license plate is not common in Chang'an District, and many people at the school gate subconsciously looked at it.

 The driver got out of the driver's seat and opened the rear door.

 Following this is Dean Jian.

Seeing that it was Dean Jian, Teacher Ning quickly took a few steps forward and greeted Dean Jian, "Dean Jian, you are back."

“Yeah.” Dean Jian seemed to be in a good mood and nodded slightly to Teacher Ning.

Then I thanked the driver and walked back to the school.

After everyone left, Teacher Ning withdrew his gaze. He looked at Bai Shaoqi, "It's great to win so many awards at such a young age. You can come to the training room tomorrow and study with other students."

 “Thank you, teacher.” Bai Shaoqi looked away and thanked her.

After Teacher Ning finished speaking to Bai Shaoqi, she said hello and walked into the school, speeding up her pace to catch up with Dean Jian.

Bai Shaoqi looked at Dean Jian's retreating back, and then looked at Jiang Yin's gatehouse.

Thinking of the car just now, she felt that Mr. Yin and Teacher Ning were in awe of the car: "Uncle Yin, the car that just sent Dean Jian back seems to be very unusual."

"Of course," Mr. Yin looked at the direction the car was leaving, "On the left and right are just those big names, Dean Jian..."

Which ones are they?

Bai Shaoqi's heart moved. She knew last year that the Yin family only lived in the fringe areas of Jiangjing and was a marginalized company. Looking up again, Mr. Yin stopped talking.

 Obviously, he doesn't know much about these forces either.

bar.

At the bar, Xuechun held the cocktail shaker with her left hand and poured the red liquid inside into a transparent wine glass filled with ice cubes. The scattered light illuminated her entire face very hazily.

 Many people glanced at her.

 She pushed the red wine glass in front of Xu Wenyao, "Master Xu, please leave immediately after drinking. This place is not suitable for you."

Xu Wenyao is wearing a white shirt and black pants, and his eyebrows are gentle but very distant.

 Very elite style. From the time he sat here, many women came to chat with him, and he was reading the texts on his mobile phone.

Xue Chun glanced at it and didn't understand it. It was a very complicated number.

It's a bit similar to Bai Zian's style. After all, not many people come to the bar to study.

"You haven't paid off your debt yet?" Xu Wenyao put his fingertips on the bar. He always felt that Xuechun was a very isolated person. She seemed to be at home in the bar, but through her frivolous appearance, he always felt that another her was standing alone. In the corner of the iceberg.

Because of Bai Qian's relationship, the two of them were familiar with each other. Xu Wenyao asked her why she was always in the bar, and she said that she had to pay off her debt.

 A regular customer next to him smiled and handed Xuechun a few bills.

"You believe this nonsense after drinking?" Xuechun reached out and took out one, folded it twice casually, then leaned forward and slowly stuck the folded banknote between the first and second buttons of Xu Wenyao's shirt. , "I just like money."

 After saying that, she stood up straight and turned around to leave the bar.

Xu Wenyao looked at her back.

A familiar boss passed by and handed her a cigarette. Xuechun bit the cigarette in her mouth. The boss quickly reached out and lit it for her. He asked teasingly: "Miss Xuechun, when are you coming to our private room to bartend?"

Xue Chun exhaled the smoke lightly and slowly glanced at him, "I will rest tomorrow."

She came to the lounge, and Xiao Wu just came back. "I'm so exhausted. I'll go see what Miss Bai still needs tomorrow."

"I'll go too," Xuechun flicked the cigarette ashes with her fingertips and suddenly remembered, "How much money do I still owe Mao Shao?"

Mao Kun redeemed her from the foreman. From then on, she followed Mao Kun and the others, bartending and watching the show, and occasionally helping Xiao Qi with some interesting work.

If someone misbehaves in the bar, Xiao Wu and Mao Kun will teach him a lesson openly.

Now everyone in the bar knows who she is, and no one dares to misbehave with her. The manager is very polite when he sees her.

“I don’t know, sister,” Xiao Wu touched the back of his head and said cutely, “I haven’t even paid off what I owe Miss Bai.”

 He didn't even think about what he owed Mao Kun.

   **

 The next day.

Bai Zian still goes to the school library to read.

At about six o'clock in the evening, I left school with Xu Wenyao and Chen Hong. Today Xu Zhiyue came back. Xu Wenyao was going back to Xu's house and invited Chen Hong to have dinner.

Bai Zian took Xu Wenyao's car back to the apartment.

Xu Wenyao was sitting in the driver's seat. He looked at the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you really not coming today?"

"No," Bai Qian put his hand on the car window, looking at his phone while talking to Xu Wenyao, and said slowly, "I have friends coming."

 Xu Wenyao nodded.

 Co-pilot, Chen Hong was very sorry to hear that Bai Zian was not with them.

 The car just turned from Jiangjing Avenue to Siyang Road.

Siyang Road is a small road. Except for those who come specifically to Shanhai Apartment, there are usually no people there.

 Chen Hong saw someone fighting a hundred meters away at a glance, "Old Xu, do we want to retaliate..."

As soon as he spoke, Xu Wenyao suddenly stopped.

In the back seat, Bai Zian also raised his head and saw Xiao Wu and Xuechun not far away.

 She got out of the car.

 Xiao Wu has red hair and is trampling a big man in black under his feet.

Xue Chun was wearing black hot pants, a white vest, and a plaid short shirt. She was standing under a tree three steps away with her hands folded, watching them fight.

This was the first time Chen Hong saw someone fighting. When he saw Bai Qian passing by, he quickly unbuckled his seat belt and followed, "Senior sister, be careful!"

 The two men approached.

 Xiao Wu had runny nose and burst into tears. He looked up at Bai Qian and said while crying: "Sister, they beat me."

Chen Hong looked down at the three grown men who had been beaten to the ground by Xiao Wu, and then looked up at Xiao Wu with tears streaming down his face...

 Suffering from deep self-doubt.

When Xuechun saw Bai Zian, she quickly stood up straight and reported the situation to Bai Zian, "Miss Bai, they are looking for me, thanks to Mr. Xiao Wu."

 Speak concisely and concisely.

Bai Zian held a stack of books in his right hand, glanced at the man in the middle, and slowly squatted down.

He casually pulled out a book, and then used the tip to gently lift away a man's hand that was covering his face.

She lowered her eyes, moving slowly and with a slightly casual attitude.

The man covered his face with all his strength, but the book that fell on his hand was like a jack, and it easily pushed his hand away, revealing his somewhat swollen face and shocked eyes.

 Chen Hong does not know Xuechun.

Bai Zian glanced at the man lightly, then stood up, lowered his head and blew lightly on the book that had touched the man.

 Then he turned his head slightly and looked towards Xu Wenyao, his black eyes were like ink stained, and his voice was unhurried: "Who is he?"

Xue Chun and Xiao Wu both looked at Xu Wenyao in surprise.

Xu Wenyao's face was condensed. He looked down at the man and quickly identified him, "Du Qingyu, Qi Shuyun's cousin."

Bai Zian knows who Qi Shuyun is.

Hearing Xu Wenyao's words, she first glanced at Xuechun and Xu Wenyao.

Then he lowered his head and glanced at Du Qingyu. Xiao Wu and the others were there, Xuechun was not injured. Bai Qian put the book back and said casually: "Okay, I won't care about it for now, you can handle it."

 Xu Wenyao looked at Du Qingyu who was looking down with an ugly expression. He knew that Bai Qian was giving him face, "Don't worry."

Bai Qian takes Xuechun and Xiao Wu away.

 After Xu Wenyao said sorry to Chen Hong, he drove back to Xu's house alone.

   **

 Mingfeng District, Xu family.

Xu Zhiyue only came back from the hotel next to Jiangjing University in the afternoon. Mrs. Xu only invited the Qi family to dinner.

 Both families have the intention of repairing things.

At this time, the hall was very serious.

Xu Wenyao looked at Mr. Qi with neither humility nor arrogance, "Du Qingyu followed them first, and the police found that they had tracking records."

Old Mrs. Xu quickly stood up with a cane and interrupted Xu Wenyao, "Wenyao, what are you talking about? We are all a family, and misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."

As she spoke, she gestured to Xu Wenyao with her eyes.

 Xu Wenyaoque. unmoved

Mr. Qi put down his mobile phone. He wore glasses and looked down upon the Xu family. When he looked at the Xu family, he always had a sense of contempt, "In this case, old madam, I don't think there is any need for our two families to communicate."

Behind him, Qi Shuyun also pursed his lips and looked at Xu Wenyao, his eyes full of disappointment, "My mother just wanted to ask the bar girl to talk. We didn't even think about the fact that they beat Qingyu. Xu Wenyao, you have really changed." ”

 Xu Wenyao raised his head calmly and said, "You broke the law first."

 He really showed no mercy this time.

Qi Shuyun pursed his lips and said, "Okay, okay, Xu Wenyao, don't regret it."

 She turned around, this time decisively.

Mr. Qi watched his daughter leave and glanced at Xu Wenyao for the last time, "Is that bartender a friend of Bai Zian? Are you going to break up with our Qi family because of them?"

Hearing Bai Zian's name, Ji Mulan, who had always been marginalized, his face darkened and he raised his head uneasily. Bai Zian did have a lot of friends. In the past, they were all cuckold friends in Beicheng.

 Xu Wenyao frowned, "You are a scholar, and Aji's friend is not a wine girl."

Mr. Qi looked at him coldly, said nothing this time, and left directly.

 “Mr. Qi, Shuyun!” The old lady reacted and caught up to explain.

 But the Qi family did not listen to the old lady's words this time and drove away directly.

Mrs. Xu came back, as if she had aged more than ten years. She looked at Xu Wenyao, "Do you know that Shuyun is Dr. Zuo's student? Also, she went to Miss Liu's office yesterday. You don't know why?" A woman from somewhere..."

 “That’s friend Aji.” Xu Wenyao looked at Old Mrs. Xu.

"What kind of friends has she made?" The top scorer in the college entrance examination is just a title. For Mrs. Xu, it is not as important as Mr. Xu and Miss Liu. "What opportunities have our Xu family missed because of your decision?" Really? Kneel down behind me and come with me to the Qi family tomorrow!"

No matter how smart Bai Qian is, she is only the top scorer in the college entrance examination and has not become famous. Bureau Chen still doesn’t know when she will return to Jiangjing. She may be strangled at any time.

 Speaking, Mrs. Xu glanced at Ji Mulan.

Xu En stood up and looked at Xu Wenyao, "Go upstairs and see Zhiyue."

After Xu Wenyao left, Xu Encai lowered his head and said to the old lady, "Mom, please stay at home for the next two days and don't leave."

In the past half year or so, Xu En’s voice in the Xu family has far surpassed that of the old lady.

 Even the old lady couldn't influence his decision.

 After saying that, he took Ji Mulan and left.

Assistant Xu fell a step behind Xu En. He was the person who had followed Bai Qian to Heishui Street. Seeing Mrs. Xu like this, he paused and said, "Old lady."

 Old lady Xu held the prayer beads and raised her head coldly.

"You should be lucky," Assistant Xu glanced at her and said softly: "The young master is handling this matter today. If it were Miss Bai instead..."

 When he said this, he lowered his eyes, politely said goodbye to Old Mrs. Xu, and did not continue.

 Then go out and follow Xu En.

Old Mrs. Xu was stunned. Assistant Xu is a smart person. Xu En reuses him. He will not say this for no reason, "Steward Xu, Assistant Xu, what do you mean?"
