Chapter 659: 261 Sending Flowers, Can She Still Play After the Opening? (Second Update)_2
“`
He went to open the door of the study.
Bai Lian still lazily leaned against the window, squinting at the outside.
The munity lights were on. On Friday, most of the alumni renting rooms were at home, and the street lamps on Zior Avenue were as bright as daylight, now reflecting in her dark eyes.
The fair hand loosely held a bright red rose, like looking down at the city’s ramparts, gazing back at the sea of lights.
Jiang Fulai’s hand rested on the doorknob, silently watching her.
...
Mountains and rivers vast, human world full of stars.
“Just one,” Jiang Fulai turned sideways, closing the study’s door, looking at the rose in her hand, suddenly smiled, “Luckily, it’s not crushed.”
Bai Lian turned to look at him, “No vase.”
Jiang Fulai walked beside her, his tone light and breezy, “Ask Ming Dongheng to buy one.”

Sunday.
At Jiang University’s grand auditorium, when Ye Jingxian arrived, a crowd had already gathered.
The Finance Department had gone to great lengths to promote the event. Journalists from Jiangjing media would be there to capture the freshman night, and the dean of the Physics Department would also attend. Therefore, both departments took the freshman party very seriously.
Ye Jingxian had arranged with Bai Lian to rehearse at 5:30. She saw a bunch of staff on the stage and asked Kong Wei what was going on.
“Bai Shaoqi has borrowed the sound system from Jiangyin,” Kong Wei explained to Ye Jingxian, “They are testing it now, and later Bai Shaoqi will also test the sound of her guzheng.”
As he spoke, Kong Wei pointed to the guzheng on the stage, watched by many, “I heard her guzheng cost 39 w.”
Hearing the price of the guzheng, Ye Jingxian also took a look.
But the guzheng wasn’t important right now. She looked down at the time—it was 5:10 PM.
“Minister Yan,” Ye Jingxian crossed through the crowd to find Yan Zhiming from the Finance Department to discuss Bai Lian’s rehearsal, “I have an arrangement with her at 5:30.”
Bai Lian was from Tongfeng class, and the grand auditorium wasn’t always available for rehearsal.
“Can Bain Lian switch to another time?” Yan Zhiming exchanged a glance with the president of the Finance Department, “Minister Ye, as you know, the stage sound effects are also very important. Bai Shaoqi has managed to get professional sound technicians from Jiangyin for testing.”
In their eyes, Bai Lian could rehearse anytime, but the sound technicians from Jiangyin weren’t so easily available.
Seeing Ye Jingxian’s hesitation, Yan Zhiming quickly said, “Minister Ye, you know how many people are ing to see Bai Shaoqi, and many will be livestreaming our colleges’ evening gala.”
pared to others, the sound quality for Bai Shaoqi’s performance was more critical.
As the technicians from Jiangyin were setting up, Ye Jingxian could only use her phone to call Bai Lian.
To tell her about this.
Not far away, Song Min emerged from backstage and noticed a group of people gathered together, walking over, “Minister, have the people from the Physics Department arrived?”
“It’s fine,” Yan Zhiming looked at him, “They wanted to rehearse, but I asked them to change the time.”

Zior Avenue.
Bai Lian stood under a tree, taking Ye Jingxian’s call, her single hand slightly gathering the phone, her tone casual, “It’s alright, senior, I don’t need to rehearse.”
Ye Jingxian, feeling helpless, “I also wanted you to try the props today. Shall we set another time?”
“No need.”
It was after five. The sun over Jiangjing hadn’t fully set; slivers of light filtered through tree leaves, casting a splintered glow.
Dazzling.
Bai Lian walked towards the bus stop across the street. Since she didn’t have to go rehearse, she decided to take the bus directly to Yunxiao District.
Yunxiao District, Azure Dragon Bar.
At the bar.
Xun Chun was dressed in a silver camisole, her lazy hair trailing behind her head, exuding a futuristic vibe, handing Bai Lian a cocktail with a blue gradation, “Why didn’t you let me know in advance that you were ing? Mr. Xiaoqi has stepped out.”
Bai Lian sat on the stool, her gaze contained as she looked at the message from Wen Zhixia, her leg casually propped up, “I had plans with a friend here.”
Her fingertips danced on the glass, and beneath the lights, the liquid in the glass shimmered.
When Wen Zhixia wearing a baseball cap arrived, she saw Bai Lian seated at the bar. Today, Bai Lian wore a retro cheongsam top with silk fabric, beautifully embroidered, a matching long skirt below, and a White Jade Hairpin in her hair.
Ignoring the backdrop of the bar behind her, at first glance, she resembled a classic lady from the Jiangnan Water Town leaning against a stone railing.
“Why are you sitting here?” Wen Zhixia led Bai Lian to the reserved booth, summoned the server to bring a bunch of drinks.
And ordered a few servers to e over to keep them pany.
Bai Lian held her drink while sitting next to Wen Zhixia.
Wen Zhixia seemed to be in a bad mood, just drinking one glass after another. Seeing her drink more and more, Bai Lian stopped her, “Shall we go out for a walk?”
