Thinking back to the fact that Grandpa Xie had gone to the capital alone half a year ago and only developed these symptoms after returning, her suspicions deepened.
——
Before we knew it, it was time for the start of the new school term.
During this time, Xie Yunqiu kept saying that he wanted to hold a grand graduation banquet for Jiang Baili, but for some reason, it didn't happen.
On the contrary, Ding Huizhu had not returned for some time, and finally showed up on the day before school started.
Ding Huizhu looked tired; she didn't want to come back, after all, her beloved daughter was still in the capital.
Unfortunately, Xie Ziyuan was always well-behaved and sensible. When she learned that Xie Li had been admitted to Linjiang No. 1 Middle School, she was very happy and repeatedly urged Ding Huizhu to come back and accompany her.
More importantly, Xie Zi'an is also starting school.
Ding Huizhu had mixed feelings. She left in a hurry that day, thinking that Xie Li would definitely embarrass her, but unexpectedly, she actually passed the exam.
The score isn't low.
Although she knew that all of this was thanks to Jiang Baili, she was still somewhat happy.
If Xie Li is truly hopeless, no matter how much Jiang Baili tries to tutor him, it will probably be useless. In the end, it's still because of the Ding family's good genes.
The complicated thing is that Xie Yunqiu became increasingly sarcastic and unpredictable in front of her, yet she could only suppress her gratitude and even specially asked Butler Wu to send Jiang Baili a generous gift.
Ding Huizhu checked the time and couldn't help but turn to ask Butler Wu, "Why hasn't the person come down yet?"
Butler Wu said tactfully, "The second young lady has been getting up rather late these days."
Upon hearing this, Ding Huizhu's face immediately darkened.
Beside her, Jiang Baili had already finished breakfast. Dressed in a proper dress, she sat calmly with her knees together in the reception area, waiting.
A short while later, Xie Zian also finished his breakfast. The young man was full of arrogance, and he said impatiently, hooking his backpack around his arm, "Can we go now?"
Jiang Baili put down her coffee and said gently, "Zi'an, wait for Xie Li."
"After all, we all study at the same school, and she's unfamiliar with the place, so let's help her out on the first day."
Xie Zian scoffed lightly, "If you're so kind, go take her with you, don't drag me into it."
With that, he walked straight out.
The Xie family had plenty of cars, and since it was such an important day as the start of the school year, Butler Wu specially prepared two cars. Xie Zi'an went straight out, got into one of them, and had someone drive it away.
They showed no intention of waiting for anyone.
Jiang Baili put down her cup, her gaze darkening slightly. She truly hadn't expected Xie Zi'an to show her absolutely no respect...
But since she herself made that statement, she can't leave now even if she wants to.
For no apparent reason, a sense of unease rose within me, and my composure from just moments before vanished.
Ding Huizhu got up and went upstairs. On such an important day, Xie Li was actually being so slow, which clearly showed his lazy and undisciplined personality...
She couldn't help but wonder if Xie Li really scored 601 points on his own test.
The girl surnamed Ming really didn't do anything to help her, like leaking exam questions or anything like that...
The more Ding Huizhu thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed.
As I walked to the door on the third floor, I raised my hand, ready to knock, when the door was opened.
"Madam?" Zhang Ma's voice was full of surprise. "Why did you come up here? By the way, do you think Miss is dressed like this?"
As Zhang Ma spoke, she stepped aside to make way for Xie Li, intending to push him forward.
Ding Huizhu was too lazy to look anymore and turned to leave, saying, "Time is running out, hurry up, don't be late."
Ding Huizhu went downstairs and found that Xie Yunqiu had already come down. She then arranged for Jiang Baili to leave by car first.
After a moment's hesitation, Butler Wu walked over to Ding Huizhu and reported, "There's another car at home, the one I retired earlier..."
