Here!_1 Ultimately, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t even eat his meal; he hastily left the Song Residence before noon and was personally driven to the high-speed rail station by Wei Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, he was going to take the one o’clock train and would arrive at Zhongjing at seven in the evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after sending Bai Xiaosheng off, Master Song Kai furrowed his brow, “No, something’s not right!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The notice that Sheng mentioned, why is it so sudden, so urgent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just an examination; is there a need for such hastiness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Song Kai blinked, suddenly realizing the underlying issue, and he gritted his teeth with resentment, “Oh, I get it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiahou Qi, old Xia!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng is from your group!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Song Kai huffed into his study, slammed the door shut, and went straight online to blast Xiahou Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you cursing me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is an internal affair of my group, what’s it to you?” Xiahou Qi replied with a cold smirk emoji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, Old Song, you went too far this time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, it’s their internal affair, are you going to meddle in that too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m with Old Xia!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past couple of days, Master Song Kai had indeed been too complacent, and now his old companions rose to challenge him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Bai Xiaosheng was oblivious to their commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, sitting on the train back to Zhongjing, Bai Xiaosheng let out a long sigh of relief, a smile spread across his face, and he started to move his slightly stiff wrist from the past few days’ activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The timing of this second stage examination notice is quite timely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, I’d be writing until I vomited!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng even felt somewhat grateful for the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he left, that sense of urgency, the flurry of hastiness, was partly for show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m about to return to Zhongjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s been several days; I wonder whether Lin Ke, the little girl, has visited the company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of which, I still owe her five meals!” Bai Xiaosheng also remembered Lin Ke’s words, “See you in Zhongjing,” and he touched his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t drag out paying this debt; otherwise, who knows what she might do!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That girl, there’s nothing she dares not to do, nothing she can’t pull off!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng was indeed somewhat wary of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The return trip to Zhongjing was unlike the journey there, rather uneventful, and without much to speak about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way, although Bai Xiaosheng had left in a rush, just before leaving, Master Song Kai had packed for him an ample supply of snacks and fruits, preventing any chance of hunger on the trip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Master Song Kai stated that he would mail over some local specialties to share with his friends and family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, this old man isn’t so bad!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reflection, Bai Xiaosheng also felt the warmth of Master Song Kai’s care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At seven in the evening, Bai Xiaosheng arrived at Zhongjing, descended from the high-speed rail, and Feng was already waiting outside to take him to his lodgings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way, Bai Xiaosheng called Song Yiming to first inquire about the past couple of days, learning that everything was normal and there were no issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then asked whether any young girl had been looking for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yiming’s answer was no.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile, musing to himself, “Never mind, let’s wait until Lin Ke decides to come by then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No need for me to rush to ‘repay the debt’.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he returned to his residence in Zhongjing, Bai Xiaosheng washed up and went to bed early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, tomorrow was the important moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Bai Xiaosheng got up early, washed and dressed, and Feng came to pick him up, bringing breakfast—a pancake and sweet soymilk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng hastily ate breakfast in the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he arrived at Zhongjing University and entered the classroom, he still had time to spare, with a quarter of an hour left until eight o’clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the classroom, there were already a dozen or so people, including Zhao Qianze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the people arrived one after another within five minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The examiner this time is really strict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being late by fifteen minutes is treated the same as not coming at all, with only one punishment—considered as a withdrawal, disqualification!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, it’s so tough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s got me all tied up in knots!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m so nervous right now; it’s been many years since I’ve felt this way!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Affairs Officer must be very strict; we need to be extra careful!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People around were chattering about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tense atmosphere began to spread, and even Bai Xiaosheng’s face unconsciously grew more solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Qianze was also a bit nervous and asked Bai, “Brother Bai, what do you think?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many stages will this examination have, and what kind of format might it take?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng heard the words and offered a wry smile as he shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Feng Li were assessing, he still would not have guessed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Affairs Officers, none were ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng looked around the classroom, where only twenty people remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the second stage, ten more would be eliminated—a nearly fifty percent elimination rate awaited them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just watch, it’ll be soon, we’ll get to see the true face of this examiner any moment now!” Bai Xiaosheng said, glancing at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words resonated with everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All were clutching their phones, incessantly checking the time and looking toward the door, enduring each second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, it was eight o’clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the door to the lecture hall remained quietly closed, with no one coming in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The candidates exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically, the second phase should have an Affairs Officer to act as the examiner, and one of the tenets of Affairs Officers is “strict with oneself,” harsh towards one’s own conduct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being late or missing an appointment, such things simply had nothing to do with Affairs Officers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng, along with everyone else, believed this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, another half hour passed, ticking by second by second, and the door remained firmly shut, with no sign of movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the room exploded into a buzz.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The notice I received said it was eight in the morning, what about you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Same here, at eight sharp, and now it’s half past eight!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Affairs Officer is actually late?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And half an hour late at that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The notice stated that being fifteen minutes late was equivalent to giving up, so what does being half an hour late count as?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, this is a complete disregard for punctuality!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shush, keep it down, you can’t spout nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the examiner hears what you’re saying when they come in, do you think you still stand a chance?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a heated discussion, all eyes turned eagerly towards the door, and another half hour passed like this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many were literally seeing stars, and they kept rubbing their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still not here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, still not here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“An hour late compared to the notice!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think we need to lodge a protest with the Office of Affairs!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With such disregard for the rules, how can we see them in the right light!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The candidates grew increasingly angry, and the classroom with twenty people somehow gave the impression of uproar from thirty or fifty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Qinghong and Mu Beichen also had their brows tightly furrowed, a look of dissatisfaction on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng and Zhao Qianze exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until nine o’clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the hour hand and the minute hand overlapped, the door to the lecture hall finally opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sound silenced everyone in an instant, and all eyes fixated collectively on the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Into the room stepped a figure, walking with brisk strides straight to the lectern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they looked at the figure, everyone was stunned, exchanging puzzled looks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the examiner for the second stage of the examination?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You must be joking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among all, Bai Xiaosheng was the most astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>",1368,"2026-06-05T17:42:43.221Z",1,"novelbin.me","5dea6a55e74ad2bc5347047fca0c0bd5ab343f85159efed76091f53ab611fdeb","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-745","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-743",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
