Jiang Baili went to Xishan Sanatorium with Xie Yunqiu early that morning.

As she was leaving, she was quite pleased with herself. Xie Li had gone to curry favor with Old Master Xie yesterday, and today he actually asked Ding Huizhu to let him attend that socialite training class instead of striking while the iron was hot.

It's utterly nonsensical and a waste of time.

The mother and daughter spent the whole day keeping Grandpa Xie company, serving him attentively and thoughtfully.

Both of them knew Grandpa Xie's temperament well, and knew that he preferred quiet and especially liked children with ambition.

Jiang Baili even brought an encyclopedia to read, and she was reading it very attentively.

During lunch, Grandpa Xie even took the initiative to ask what book I was reading.

Jiang Baili revealed at the opportune moment that she was going to challenge the No. 1 Middle School Encyclopedia King, and then said with a smile, "If Ziyuan can achieve such good results, I can't fall behind."

After listening, Old Master Xie remained indifferent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

On the contrary, Wang Zhian happened to be there as well. He pushed up his glasses and said, "Speaking of which, the difficulty of the No. 1 Middle School Encyclopedia King Challenge is S-level, which is also within the scope of bonus points for the Xie family's heir selection assessment."

Jiang Baili revealed her ambition at the opportune moment: "Then I must prove myself even more and not fall too far behind Ziyuan."

We can't really let Xie Ziyuan, an adopted daughter, dominate and beat the Xie family's biological granddaughters and nieces, can we?

Xie Yunqiu said with a smile, "Dad, Xie Li also signed up. It seems she's working hard. She even went to some socialite training class today."

Two elders from the Xie family were also present. They had been invited by Old Master Xie to discuss the matter of recording Xie Li's name in the family genealogy.

Originally, the two elders valued blood relations, and Xie Ziyuan had performed very well in the past, which they liked very much. However, now that Xie Li, the rightful owner, had returned, she had to step aside.

I fully support including Xie Li's name in the family genealogy.

However, upon hearing that Xie Li had signed up for the No. 1 Middle School Encyclopedia Challenge but wasted time attending some socialite training class, she immediately became somewhat dissatisfied.

Isn't that person a bit too clueless?

Don't you know your own level? If you can study hard and prepare well, then you have the drive.

With time so tight, instead of putting in extra time to study, she's acting so clueless and unable to grasp the key points. It's incredibly irresponsible of her.

Besides, the Xie family's daughter doesn't need to attend any socialite training programs in order to get married easily!

Old Master Xie's face was cold and his expression displeased: "Just eat, why all the nonsense!"

After finishing his meal, Grandpa Xie claimed he needed to rest and sent everyone out of the ward.

Grandpa Xie slowly sat down, supporting himself on the bed; his complexion was not good.

To be honest, although I know Xie Li is a prodigy, I can't help but worry about her when I think about her past environment.

After all, their previous environment was too poor and their foundation too shallow. How could they compare to Jiang Baili and Xie Ziyuan, who were rich young ladies who received all kinds of elite education from a young age?

The "King of Encyclopedias" challenge is less than a week away. Who can read extensively in just a few weeks and make up for the knowledge they've missed over the past ten years?

If Xie Li had just a little more time, even just two or three more years, perhaps everything would have been different.

Grandpa Xie sighed, fumbled for his phone, and made a call to an old friend.

"Hey, Zhencai, this is Buyun," said Grandpa Xie. "I have something I'd like to ask you, it's about Xie Li's education..."
