Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 753: Chapter 753 You demon!_1

Bai Xiaosheng was the first to leave the classroom, and for a moment, the remaining fourteen people were silent, then suddenly abuzz.

”What is our little examiner trying to ask us?”

”It was agreed that once the examination rules were set, they wouldn’t change, but they couldn’t resist adding new things to it!”

”If Feng Li, the examiner, is full of tricks, how could this one be any easier to deal with!”

”My heart is suddenly all aflutter!”

...

Zheng Qinghong glanced at the door and couldn’t help but let out a sneer, ”Name of Bai is rather eager this time!”

”Isn’t he always like that, always loving to grab the limelight, being a young man after all!” a voice came from beside Zheng Qinghong.

Zheng Qinghong looked over to find Mu Beichen.

”Grab the limelight? Rushing for the limelight can lead to a bloody mess!” Zheng Qinghong sneered.

”Exactly why he’s smart. If he can’t pass, he can’t pass; better see the result earlier and get busy with other things.” Mu Beichen laughed.

”That’s called ’the earlier you die, the sooner you’re reincarnated!’” Zheng Qinghong said.

The two of them sang in harmony, their ”cooperation” in sync.

Zhao Qianze couldn’t help turning his head, frowning as he glanced at the two, then got up from his seat and headed for a spot by the door, ready to take over from Bai Xiaosheng when the time came.

Zheng Qinghong watched Zhao Qianze leave and could not help but follow with his eyes.

”Bai Xiaosheng not getting eliminated this time means he’ll probably be out next time. He’s certainly not my rival, but you, Mr. Zheng, are!” Mu Beichen looked at Zheng Qinghong with a smile yet a murderous aura, ”I particularly enjoy competing with talented people because the joy and sense of accomplishment in victory are unparalleled! What do you think, Mr. Zheng?”

Zheng Qinghong’s gaze landed on Mu Beichen’s face, his eyes flickering uncertainly, but eventually, he smiled.

”President Mu considering me a rival is a good thing,” Zheng Qinghong said with an air of pride, ”However, you are not my opponent!”

Mu Beichen’s expression darkened.

”My only opponent is myself!” Zheng Qinghong said arrogantly, then got up and left.

Mu Beichen watched him leave and scoffed, ”Arrogant and narcissistic, do you really think with that kind of support you can despise everyone else and come out on top? You may not know me well, but I have you figured out!”

Moving away, Zheng Qinghong’s eyes also showed a cold gleam, ”Is Mu Beichen showing his fangs to me! Hmph, you think I’m too arrogant, but what you don’t realize is that you’re only seeing the Zheng Qinghong I allow you to see! Next, we’ll see what you and those behind you are capable of!”

At a time when everyone believed Bai Xiaosheng had ”no doubt of defeat,” these two were showing their fangs in succession!

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaosheng was sitting opposite Lin Ke, both amused and bemused, he asked, ”This is what you called us over to ask?”

”’Name the five people who left the strongest impression on you, excluding yourself.’ What, do you think this question is stupid?” Lin Ke looked at Bai Xiaosheng with dissatisfaction.

”Not really.” Bai Xiaosheng laughed, ”Shall I start then?”

Lin Ke raised his hand to stop him.

”No need for you to answer. This question is for them. You, cunning as you are, asking you is no different from not asking at all,” Lin said.

”Is this how you see me?” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.

Seeing him like this, Lin Ke chuckled.

”I have other things to tell you,” Lin Ke said, counting on his fingers, ”Three things. First, I’ve helped you a lot quietly, including today, I didn’t reveal the fact that ’you are number one, way ahead of Mu Beichen who is second’. You should thank me! Second, I’ve found you a powerful backer, but of course, I can’t tell you right now. Third, I’m planning to come to your house for a meal today or tomorrow, so have the food ready. Also, write me some calligraphy; I need it for a gift.”

Bai Xiaosheng listened and laughed through the one, two, three, particularly curious about the last point.

”You’re not planning to give a gift to Master Song Kai, are you? Before I left, I wrote him quite a few.”

”Not to Master Song Kai, to someone else... to who? Humph, is it any of your business!” Lin Ke snorted coldly.

”Is there anything else? If not, can I go?” Bai Xiaosheng shrugged his shoulders and asked with a smile.

”Go, go!” Lin Ke waved her hand, ”Remember what I told you, I want something delicious, I want your calligraphy work, go prepare when you get back!”

Bai Xiaosheng smiled, stood up, and left.

As he pulled open the door, he saw Zhao Qianze about to come in.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at her.

”How did it go, any questions for me? Was it difficult?” Zhao Qianze asked somewhat nervously, lowering her voice.

”It’s very simple, don’t worry,” Bai Xiaosheng reassured her.

Zhao Qianze relaxed her expression, giving Bai Xiaosheng a sweet smile.

Bai Xiaosheng watched Zhao Qianze enter, then he departed.

That evening, Lin Ke made her way to Bai Xiaosheng’s place. And for this beauty, Bai Xiaosheng had prepared a sumptuous dinner, including the long-awaited meat swallows as well as several other exquisite dishes, all perfect in flavor, aroma, and appearance.

Lin Ke ate heartily, praising Bai Xiaosheng’s culinary skills endlessly, and once again suggested ”she could marry down.”

Bai Xiaosheng ignored this.

At the end of the meal, Lin Ke held in her hands a large snow pear, from which the flesh had been hollowed out and turned into a white fungus snow pear soup. After letting it cool a bit, she used the pear shell as a bowl to serve it, quite ingenious.

She ate slowly, nodding frequently.

”The simplest things are often the hardest to perfect: making something stand out takes real culinary skill.”

Afterward, Lin Ke remarked, ”Speaking of which, today’s conversation was quite interesting. Guess who everyone agreed was the most memorable person.”

”It’s not me, is it?” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

”It’s you!”

Lin Ke pointed at Bai Xiaosheng with a soup spoon, ”You, the troublemaker, what you did in the first phase got brought up by eight out of ten people. Your reviews aren’t good, comrade!”

Bai Xiaosheng shook his head, smiling.

”But there are some who spoke well of you, like that Zhao Qianze. Ah, that woman seems to be quite interested in you. Humph, old woman, still wanting to snag a younger man,” Lin Ke muttered.

Old woman? Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

In terms of age, Lin Ke was only a few years younger than her.

Probably envious because the other lady developed nicely...

”Your talk this time, on the surface, was to find the five people who left the deepest impression, it seems like you’re assessing these people. That’s what most would think, and they’d inevitably involve those they care about; it’s too low-level to slander, and praising others too much has its advantages, at the very least one could owe them a favor later,” Bai Xiaosheng said to Lin Ke without reservation, ”But in reality, what you’re observing is the person speaking, themselves! It’s about their magnanimity and what they pay attention to in others, those are the qualities needed in future leaders. Right?”

Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking.

Lin Ke tilted her head, spoon still in her mouth, and looked at him seriously.

”Did I say something wrong?” Bai Xiaosheng said with an indifferent smile.

”You, you’re really something else, extraordinarily perceptive!” Lin Ke sighed heavily, speaking earnestly, ”Looks like I was right, asking you is the same as not asking; you saw right through it. What a monstrous genius, Bai Xiaosheng—”

”You’re really not human!”
