Chapter 589: Even your family’s old man stepping in was useless_3
“Fine,” Xu Nanjing stood up and fished out a cigarette from his pocket, biting down on it, “I’ll take her back first, there are people waiting for her at home.”
“Can I leave now?” Bai Lian looked up.
Le Shaoming almost had a myocardial infarction from her single remark, “Of course, Miss Bai, you can leave whenever you wish.”
Not detaining the parties involved in the brawl and forcefully detaining others was unreasonable to begin with.
He truly feared that if Bai Lian said one more word, his position might be at risk.
Fortunately, Bai Lian didn’t say more, only standing up, “I still have two books.”
“Books,” Le Shaoming hurriedly opened the door of the office, glancing at Sun Fei standing outside, “Where are Miss Bai’s books?”
His “Miss Bai” was very polite.
Sun Fei was startled too, and hurriedly said, “In the meeting room, I’ll fetch them.”
She quickly brought over Bai Lian’s two books.
They were both stained with blood, which had dried.
Le Shaoming saw the bright red blood and knew the fight had been intense. Associating it with Bai Lian’s clean and neat white clothes, he couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
But he dared not ponder more and went in to give Bai Lian her books.
Xu Nanjing also saw the bloodstains on the book covers and his brows twitched a few times, feeling that something was not right.
But he didn’t think it through.
Le Shaoming respectfully escorted them to the door, “Third Young Master, rest assured, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and will not bend the law for personal gain.”

Xu Nanjing’s car was parked right at the entrance.
He opened the passenger door, just about to let Bai Lian get in.
A black four-seater car pulled up beside his.
It had Chang’an District plates, and in comparison to Xu Nanjing’s jaguar plates, the car’s body and plates were both extremely low-profile.
Xu Nanjing felt the license plate looked familiar.
Before he could think further, he saw the back door open and an elderly man clad in a dark robe step out.
The moment he saw that face, Xu Nanjing’s mouth fell open.
Shun Yu maintained a clear conscience and did not get involved with their several families. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
The way he said “Xu Nanjing,” the three words were obviously much more perfunctory.
And not nearly as amiable.
Xu Nanjing wasn’t surprised by Shun Yu’s attitude, after all, Shun Yu still remembered his name, unlike Academician Ma who would say, “If you invest in the new equipment today, you are Xu Nanjing, the third young master. Without investment—
Friend, who are you?”]
What Xu Nanjing found surprising was that Shun Yu and Bai Lian knew each other, and not only that, but why was Shun Yu speaking to her so kindly?
Xu Nanjing didn’t think it was because of Jiang Fulai’s relationship. Shun Yu was not only Jiang Fulai’s good friend but also the third young master of the Xu Family, yet look how perfunctorily Principal Shi treated him?
As for Bai Lian knowing Xu Nanjing, Shun Yu casually observed them, then noticed Xu Nanjing standing half a step behind Bai Lian.
It suddenly dawned on him that Bai Lian came from Xiangcheng.
Previously, the fact that Bai Lian was from Xiangcheng merely made him feel contemplative, but seeing Xu Nanjing today…
Shun Yu paused.
He remembered someone was in Xiangcheng and had recently returned to Jiangjing, stirring excitement in the academic circles.
“Glad you’re fine,” Shun Yu thought while he spoke with Bai Lian, “No rush with Dean Shu, he isn’t busy in the next few days. Just let me know when you have time.”
