The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 867: She’s coming with her ultimate move_2

The crowd was chaotic, so they specially dispatched a team of security guards to maintain order at the scene.

The HR from the Gao Family noticed among the students there were also a few old scholars dressed meticulously. It was one thing for the students to seek out the Mu Family, but what was the situation with these teachers?

Especially since, the young people at the Gao Family’s booth seemed to have received some kind of message.

Hurriedly, they took their resumes and ran over.

Not one was left behind.

Clearly, something was off.

The Gao Family’s HR, with a darkened expression, sent someone to inquire about what exactly was going on.

This matter was no secret, simply asking a student would reveal everything, and their subordinate quickly found a student and got the details.

"Bai Jian?" Upon hearing the news, the Gao Family’s HR’s expression changed, "The Mu Family found him? Impossible!"

He was the planner of this event and naturally knew that the Gao Family had been trying to find Bai Jian for the past few months.

Insiders all knew that he might be someone as remarkable as Jiang Fulai.

Such talents come perhaps once in centuries, and when they do appear, two come at once.

Nobody doubted his popularity at the Jiangjing Preparatory Camp.

But Gao Yi had always been unable to find him, even checking overseas laboratories to no avail.

And now he shows up with the Mu Family?

The Gao Family’s HR thought this was some kind of joke. Although he didn’t want to believe it, he still shakily took out his mobile phone and called Gao Yi.

The situation had become uncontrollable.

Nearly nobody was at the Mu Family’s three research institutes, and they were in desperate need of new blood. This year at Jiang University, they would recruit as many as they desired.

They originally thought that without the Jiang Family, they, the Gao Family, would definitely have a major advantage in this year’s campus recruitment. But now, without the Jiang Family, the Mu Family had surfaced.

The Mu Family was far more terrifying than that He Wen.

In the past, they could still get a piece of the pie. This year, they feared they would get nothing at all.

The news from the Mu Family quickly reached Mu Yining as well.

She first called Ji Shaojun to inquire who exactly Bai Jian was.

Ji Shaojun answered with just a few casual sentences.

Then he hung up and continued with his work.

It wasn’t until he finished work in the evening that he accompanied Mu Yining to Shanhai Apartment.

Shanhai Apartment.

Chen Beixuan had indeed been living on the fourth floor these past few days, in Xu Nanjing’s room, and right now was playing chess with Pu Xiaohan in room 103. However, it was clear that Chen Beixuan was in a sour mood and couldn’t sit still.

Pu Xiaohan sat across from Chen Beixuan.

She’d look up at Chen Beixuan’s expression before making her move, letting her lose without looking too bad.

Preserving her dignity.

Pu Xiaohan had never played such a vexing game before.

When Mu Yining arrived at room 303, Bai Lian was revising a thesis for Tang Ming.

In her hand, she held a black fountain pen.

Looking down, she methodically left a line of notes on the side.

Mu Yining took a look. It wasn’t her usual delicate handwriting, but a forceful clerical script.

From a distance, sharp and willful energy flowed forth,

interspersed with impatience.

"Uncle, Aunt Mu," Tang Ming stood up, leaving the study to them.

Bai Lian put down her pen, flipping the thesis face down.

Her expression was indifferent, without a greeting.

Ji Shaojun had heard from Ji Heng that she had been in a bad mood lately, but he wasn’t sure why.

"The campus recruitment was very successful," Mu Yining reported the good news, "Manager Mu said they have already received a hundred resumes, and some professors specifically sought him out."

As she spoke, Mu Yining cast a curious glance at Bai Lian.

Bai Lian... Bai Jian.

She had some speculations but since Bai Lian and the others didn’t say anything, Mu Yining didn’t pry further.

"Mm, and the Gao Family?" Bai Lian’s gaze fell to the corner of the desk, where the last rose had become dry and lost its last bit of color.

At the mention of the Gao Family, Mu Yining paused slightly, "We have many people to recruit; it won’t be easy to get past the Gao Family."

Bai Lian stood and reached for a book on the shelf, her tone as casual as ever, "then it’s settled, the location for the marine engineering project has been chosen. When are you starting construction?"

She seemed to have been waiting for this answer.

The Gao Family was also in competition with the Mu Family. Gao Yi marrying Mu Youjun was never with good intentions.

But back then, Mu Yining from the Mu Family stepped forward, and Gao Yi failed to infiltrate the Gao Family inner circle.

Now, with the Mu Family suddenly presenting a batch of precious metals for a national key project, the Gao Family stopped holding back and directly dealt a blow to the Mu Family, acting on the list given by Mu Zhendong.

And now, the front that the Mu Family had put up was causing the Gao Family’s months of efforts and high salaries to woo away professors like Yin to be all in vain.

Mu Yining looked at Bai Lian’s side profile.

The book in her hand was a foreign text, seemingly a translation relating to quantum mechanics.

Mu Yining couldn’t understand these things; she withdrew her gaze, watching Bai Lian look down and slowly flip through the book.

"After this campus recruitment," Mu Yining spoke to Bai Lian, "I will send you the list of resumes; they are all people we have preliminarily selected. Take a look."

"Okay," Bai Lian took the book and returned to her seat, flipping to page 327. The problem given to her by Academician Ma originated from here, "Also, Professor Zhou said that some professors from Jiang University want to get in touch with you."

Bai Lian glanced up briefly, "I’ll have Tang Ming give you their contact information later, remember to send someone to liaise with them."

Professors? And using "some" to describe them?

Mu Yining nodded.

She waited a bit, and seeing that Bai Lian had nothing else to say,

saw that Bai Lian was busy, Mu Yining went out with Ji Shaojun to find Tang Ming.

As they left, Mu Yining gently closed the study room door behind them. Bai Lian re-opened her laptop, seemingly composing a message to someone, exuding a calm demeanor yet with an unmistakable pride.

At the moment of closing the door, Mu Yining finally convinced herself that this "Bai Jian" must be Bai Lian’s doing.

Bai Lian was declaring clearly to the Gao Family—

You previously set traps for the Mu Family, shamelessly poaching professors who were about to sign contracts with us. Now, we have come back with a team of professors as our big move.

Can you handle it?
