Chapter 733: 290 spears pierce through the wind and waves, holding a pen to test the sharpness_2
But today, she heard sothing shocking in Dong Xiaobai’s tone.
“I didn’t hear Shaojun and the others ntion it,” Dong Xiaobai’s reaction ant that Bai Lian hadn’t made any mistakes this ti, which allowed Mu Yining to breathe a sigh of relief, “Then Minister Cai…”
She narrowed her eyes slightly.
The Mu family was keeping a low profile these days, not actively provoking anyone, but not afraid of trouble either. Minister Cai could refuse, but that might prompt Mu Yining to approach soone else.
However, after agreeing and then creating obstacles when the program was truly underway, Mu Yining wouldn’t let it go just like that.
Beside them, Dong Chuan was also very surprised. After having dinner at the Mu family’s ho last ti, he had heard Dong Xiaobai ntioning Bai Lian.
At that ti, he knew that Bai Lian was an outstanding student at Jiang University.
However, it was only today that he found out she was also skilled in calligraphy.
Before he could react, a mber of the Calligraphy Association ca over, “Mr. Dong, the president is looking for you!”
“The president?” Dong Xiaobai gathered his thoughts, “He’s looking for at this ti?”
Despite his confusion, Dong Xiaobai told Mu Yining to take Dong Chuan and Ren Wanxuan out for a stroll while he went to the back lounge to et the president.

The lounge.
When Dong Xiaobai arrived, the president of the Calligraphy Association was standing respectfully on one side, with Minister Cai and others present.
The atmosphere was very quiet.
Only an elderly man was sitting in the chair at the center.
As soon as Dong Xiaobai entered the lounge, he felt the solemn atmosphere and quickly bowed respectfully, greeting, “Elder Chen.”
Elder Chen lifted his eyes to ask for his na and his position in the Calligraphy Association.
After a few questions, he finally said, “Is Bai Lian soone your Dong family recomnded?”
“She is also my niece,” Dong Xiaobai said.
“Niece, ah, good, very good. At such a young age to have such strength, to have such” Elder Chen looked at him, his gaze much more amiable, “You all have done an excellent job this ti.”
The president of the Calligraphy Association then smiled and spoke up, “Not only that, she herself has brought a lot of attention. It’s been less than an hour since the event, and the internet is full of her short video clips. We’ve decided to fra her calligraphy and set up a separate booth for her in the center to attract more young visitors to the exhibition.”
In the room, everyone realized that the organizers greatly appreciated Bai Lian.
Of course, among the younger mbers of the Calligraphy Association, no one else could compare to her.
A group of people were discussing enthusiastically.
The president of the Calligraphy Association rembered Minister Cai and laughed, “Little Cai, you did well this ti too, getting the shots of Bai Lian just right!”
Minister Cai was smiling, but his entire deanor was rigid.
He had a conflict of interest with the Dong family. With Elder Chen from the Chen family present at this four-nation exchange eting, if Bai Lian showed even the slightest mistake, or if her writing was just a little poor, causing Elder Chen and the organizers to be slightly dissatisfied, the industry would reassess the Dong family.
He had high hopes and had Cai Xin repeatedly inquire.
Bai Lian hadn’t gone to any rehearsals from the beginning, especially since Dong Xiaobai and Mu Yining personally brought gifts to persuade him to reduce Bai Lian’s on-screen presence.
He believed it to be true, unaware that Bai Lian’s calligraphy was not sothing to hide; rather, it was of the highest quality!
Having more cara shots of Bai Lian made her even more popular.
Now the dia were promoting this year’s “Ink Sea Bai Lian.” Who would know there was also Cai Xin, who shared the stage with her, whose writing was not bad either?
He previously waited for a comparison with Bai Lian, hoping to build a reputation for Cai Xin.
If he had known it would turn out this way, he would never have given Bai Lian an extra shot.
Now, not only had he not gained anything, but Mu Yining was not soone to be trifled with. If Bai Lian’s performance on stage hadn’t been ideal, the Dong family would have been too busy to deal with their own issues, leaving Mu Yining with little ti to cause trouble for them.
But now, not only did she have ti, but the Dong family had likely made a good impression on the Chen family as well.
Minister Cai was no longer relaxed; he started looking for soone to contact Mu Yining.

The conference ended.
Qiu Xuezheng got busy with Xiangcheng’s small exhibition booth; the Calligraphy Association said they would add another booth for Xiangcheng.
Jian Zhe and Dean Jian walked outside.
He had exams in a few days, and since Qiu Xuezheng didn’t assign him any tasks, he needed to familiarize himself with the examination venue at Jiang University.
Dean Jian couldn’t find Bai Lian. She didn’t reply to his ssages, and he asked Jian Zhe where she had gone.
“Bai Lian? Well,” Jian Zhe recalled for a mont, “she has to go to the laboratory with Ning Xiao this afternoon.”
Ning Xiao still had a class in the morning and would go to Academician Ma’s laboratory with Bai Lian in the afternoon.
“Is she in such a hurry?” Dean Jian nodded. No wonder she hadn’t been responding; she didn’t bring her phone into the lab.
