Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

1882 I Estimate That Young Miss Will Rank Between 70th to 83rd

He didn’t just think that Qiao Nian wouldn’t pass the assessment.

He still felt that she would lose face this time.

For someone like Qiao Nian, who went to participate in the assessment on impulse, she might end up at the bottom.

The Nan family was participating in the assessment after 20 years. The focus of everyone’s attention would definitely be on Qiao Nian. When the results came out, it would be embarrassing…

He Lin still did not understand if the Nan family had gone crazy. Why would they let a person who had no systematic learning record in this aspect represent them in this assessment?

Qiao Nian would be slapped in the face.

The Nan family she represented would probably lose face in the Independent Continent as well.

Therefore, He Lin’s mood was actually very complicated. On the one hand, he did not approve of Qiao Nian representing another family in the assessment as a direct descendant of the Ji family. On the other hand, he was very glad that she was representing the Nan family and not the Ji family. Otherwise, they would be the ones to lose face.

“83 people are participating in the assessment this time. Young Miss’s final results are estimated to be between 70th and 83rd place.”

He Lin was already very polite.

He actually wanted to say between 80th and 83rd place.

However, as Qiao Nian was a direct descendant of the Ji family who had wandered outside and had a noble status, he considerately raised the upper limit of her ranking by 10.

In fact, he estimated that Qiao Nian would place between 80th and 83rd.

“Heh.” Ji Lingfeng only smiled. His voice was low, slow, and deep, and no emotions could be detected.

He Lin’s face turned pale. He did not dare to speak nonsense and lowered his head.

Ji Lingfeng glanced at him from the corner of his eye with a meaningful gaze, then picked up the inkstone and brushed his fingertips across it. His eyelids drooped. “Alright, contact her again.”

He Lin looked up and hesitated.

He had already been blocked twice, but the young lady did not reply to him at all.

However, he did not dare to provoke Ji Lingfeng and agreed respectfully. “Yes, Patriarch.”

Ji Lingfeng then said calmly, “You can leave.”

He Lin stole a glance at him and then went out silently, closing the door on his way out.

After coming out, He Lin walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out a photo frame. He looked at the smiling person in the photo and gently brushed it. “…Look, it’s only been 20 years, but no one remembers you anymore.”

If anyone who knew Qiao Nian was here, they would definitely realize that the person in the photo looked a little similar to her.

However, the facial features of the person in the photo were brighter and gentler.

She was not as cold and roguish as Qiao Nian, who appeared arrogant. She looked gentle and calm.

Ji Lingfeng put the photo frame back and locked the drawer. His expression was sharp and deep as if his previous emotions were just an illusion.

Qiao Nian still did not know that someone had already claimed the last three places for her. After parting ways with Zhou Zhou, she ate outside with Ye Wangchuan and the others before returning to her residence.

After returning, because she wanted to see the notes Xie Tingyun had given her, she told the rest she was going upstairs first.

Gu San made her a cup of tea and sent it up.

Qin Si and Bo Jingxing sat on the sofa in the living room. They were fine.

Qin Si pulled Bo Jingxing to play games. Bo Jingxing did not want to play, so he played by himself. He even turned on the voice chat and pulled Zhang Yang and a few people from the small circle in Beijing.

Zhang Yang asked if Miss Qiao was coming.

Qin Si said that Qiao Nian had something on and was not playing for now.

Zhang Yang was very perceptive and did not ask further. They started a game and had a friendly battle in the living room.
