The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress - Chapter 501

Chapter 501: 199 Alian’s calligraphy_2
 

Director: “…”

“We have to firmly hold onto Yan Lu’s coattails,” he coughed softly, then set down his water glass and shifted the conversation, looking at the others in the office, “Everyone, work hard and see what other comments there are online. Also, make a dedicated video clip for Xingyi Martial Arts School.”

The director knew that Yan Lu’s achievements in the future would not be low.

“Come Here Friend” reached a new peak in popularity.

In this period, even students in closed schools had heard of “Come Here Friend,” “Jingjiang Preparatory Camp,” and “Chi Yundai” to some extent.

Both Yan Lu and the show had become explosively popular.

Previously, Yan Lu had entered the public eye because of her songs, but what everyone was familiar with were the songs, not her as a person. The fans of Dean Jian and Bai Jian were even more numerous than hers.

But after the show aired, Yan Lu became popular with unimaginable heat.

The crew of “Great Yong” also took the opportunity to release a trailer.

Zhao Jingzhou’s law office.

He swiped his screen and then found Yan Lu’s Weibo to follow.

“Zhao Lu,” his assistant said in surprise, “how is Professor Chi so familiar with this celebrity?”

Logically, Chi Yundai shouldn’t know these people.

Zhao Jingzhou put down his phone, recalling the scene he saw in Xiangcheng, and said calmly, “He shouldn’t be familiar with Yan Lu.”

Chi Yundai was very respectful to that man and to one of his students.

Wednesday.

In the evening, Xiang Mountain Avenue.

Xu He dragged his suitcase out of the taxi.

“You’ve arrived?” his mother’s call came through.

Xu He just responded with a “Hmm.”

“I heard the Third Young Master is back, leaving you alone in Xiangcheng?” Xu’s mother paused a bit, wanting to ask if her son could ever return to Jiangjing, but fearing to hurt him, she didn’t ask, “Ahe, don’t worry, maybe the situation is not as bad as we imagine.”

Not so bad?

Xu He looked at the buildings around him, indeed not as dilapidated as he had imagined, the roads were also newly paved.

“I know, the Great Lady values this place,” he forced a smile to comfort his mother, “perhaps Miss Bai is also very good.”

His mother did not speak again; in fact, both of them knew very well that Miss Bai was from Xiangcheng, and even if Xiangcheng was good, how much better could it be?

There wasn’t even a sixth-rank martial artist to hold up the facade.

Coming here was tantamount to being exiled, and Xu He’s place of exile was not even the Xu Family, but an unknown martial arts school, from where returning to Jiangjing would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.

Xu He didn’t continue speaking.

He quickly found Xingyi Martial Arts School following the directions on his navigation app.

This place was at the entrance to a scenic area; the lighting was not very bright. Compared to the splendid Xu Family training base, Xingyi Martial Arts School was not large, with many tourists at the entrance.

Those passing by were all ordinary people.

He had anticipated this before coming, so Xu He knocked on the door without much expectation.

The door was opened from inside by a middle-aged man wearing a white practice uniform, his forehead covered with sweat, and his eyes as cold as stars: “Teacher Xu He?”

Xu He was startled by the man’s imposing manner, and he composed himself: “Yes, it’s me.”

“Just in time, Miss Bai has been waiting for you for a long time,” Jin Kai smiled, opened the door for Xu He to enter, “I am the Hall Master here, and we are very grateful for your help this time.”

Xu He followed Jin Kai with surprise, and upon entering, he saw the people training on the left side.

There were not many people training at this time; one person was swinging long fists, and it seemed like you could see dust being lifted by the force of the punches, moves that he had never seen before.

Xu He secretly wondered as he could tell these martial artists were not untrained.

He followed Jin Kai down a corridor to the backyard.

In front of the stone table in the backyard, a girl was lounging on a bench next to it, dressed in a blue and white school uniform, her top loose, her legs slightly crossed, and one hand tapping on her phone on the table.

She was casually accepting an orange from a middle-aged woman, and the dim light in the yard cast a golden glow on her.

“Miss Bai,” Jin Kai took a step forward and reported to her, “He’s here.”

Bai Lian slowly peeled the orange, looking at Xu He, and arched an eyebrow: “Sixth Rank?”

Even though the girl in front of him looked young and delicate, Xu He felt an inexplicable pressure, and he tensed inwardly: “Yes, Miss Bai.”

Although he had suffered internal injuries, he was indeed of the sixth rank.

Bai Lian had already heard from Jin Kai that Xu He was there as a substitute. She broke off a segment of the orange, tossed it into her mouth, leaned on the table with her elbow and after a moment’s thought said, “Have a go with Hall Master Jin.”

Facing a fight right away, Xu He hesitated for a moment, but then he set his luggage aside, and with an apologetic look toward Jin Kai, said, “I apologize in advance, as in sparring punches and kicks can slip.”
