The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress

No matter how much time she was given, there was only one answer for Lu Lingxi.

After all, if she had wanted to stay in Beicheng High School, she would never have returned to Xiangcheng.

**

Jiangjing was much smaller than Beicheng, but it also had more than a dozen districts.

Xingjiang District was at the center of the city, while Yunxiao District and Chang’an District were the places bustling with university life and economic development; the Xu Family lived in Mingfeng District, closer to the outskirts.

The old residence of the Xu Family.

Madam Xu, dressed in a black cotton-padded jacket with her gray hair coiled up at the back of her head, stood by the warm pond in the backyard of the old villa feeding fish, companied by a woman in a black coat who looked efficient and capable.

The butler appeared quietly.

“Where are they?” Madam Xu asked. She held a shiny black cane in one hand and grabbed a handful of fish feed from a jar beside her, casually scattering it into the slightly steaming pond where a group of koi fish leaped out of the water to snatch up the feed.

Ever since she knew of Ji Mulan, Madam Xu had no intention of letting her pass through these gates.

But because of Bai Lian, Madam Xu had consented this time to Xu En bringing Bai Lian back to the old house.

Meanwhile, the woman in the coat looked surprised as she turned her head.

This was Xu Shujie, Xu En’s sister.

“Old lady, Bai Lian didn’t come,” the butler reported in a soft voice.

“Who is Bai Lian?” Xu Shujie asked.

The butler explained to Xu Shujie, “Ji Mulan’s daughter.”

Xu Shujie was surprised; she wasn’t very familiar with Ji Mulan, but she had taken the time to come back for Xu En’s remarriage. Now looking at Madam Xu, she said, “What kind of person is her daughter, to have aroused your personal attention?”

Quite curious.

Madam Xu spoke indifferently, “A person from the border town, nothing special about her. Just good-looking.”

She had Bai Lian’s information.

It was said that she barely made it into college.

That so, Xu Shujie immediately lost interest, “Why haven’t I seen her come here?”

“It’s her first time in Jiangjing,” the butler recalled Shen Qing’s performance and Bai Lian’s words and actions, “You can tell she really wants to fit in. Right now, she’s probably out having fun. Young people love to go sightseeing and post on their social circles.”

Never having been on a plane before, and if she had traveled in economy class, she wouldn’t have said that first class felt too small.

The butler judged that Bai Lian was probably out enjoying herself in Jiangjing University at this moment.

Going to check in at the entrance of Jiangjing University, perhaps Xu Wenyao even took her inside the campus.

“After all, she is…” After all, she came from a humble background, Madam Xu looked up, “But that’s also good, easy to handle.”

She had seen all sorts of people. People like Bai Lian and Shen Qing, as long as they were provided with sufficiently superior conditions, would not be willing to leave.**

Jiangjing Airport.

Mrs. Song and her party finally waited for Song Min.

Song Min carried only a backpack, quietly walking out of the VIP exit.

“What’s wrong?” Bai Shaoqi immediately sensed that Song Min was in a bad mood.

The others couldn’t help but look over, as Song Min was respected for his status and academic achievements in Beicheng, and he was also learning finance with the Song Family, always appearing refined and aloof.

Even in front of Bai Shaoke, he was in no way inferior.

The young man had a strong sense of pride.

This kind of subdued mood was rare.

“Weren’t you waiting for your results?” Mrs. Song smiled as she looked at Song Min, “Could it be that there was a mistake in math again?”

Everyone present knew that Song Min had scored second in math last time, which is why he had put a lot of effort into math in the last two months.

Mrs. Song guessed that Song Min might not have achieved his desired result in math again.

“It’s nothing,” Bai Shaoqi also guessed this, and after asking about the results, Song Min hadn’t replied to her messages, “A temporary slip-up is no big deal. Don’t put so much pressure on yourself. You’re always first, why compete with yourself?”

Mrs. Song and Bai Qiming both nodded in agreement.

Song Min had dominated the entire high school scene in Beicheng for more than two years, never failing to come first in every major or minor exam.

Therefore, no one present thought Song Min would fall to another rank.

The ever-silent Song Min finally looked up, “I’m not the first this time.”

“Ah? Then which place did you get?” Mrs. Song stopped, incredulous, “If not you, then who else could it be?”

Bai Qiming looked at Song Min, a thought crossing his mind—

Could it be Shaoqi?

Song Min: “I don’t know, I’m also waiting for a message from our class teacher.”

It was at that moment when the class teacher sent over the results for the first place.
