"Bai Shaoke," Dr. Zuo placed a pen in his notebook, returning to his senses and inquired of Bai Shaoke, "You said that those new students all come from Xiangcheng?"
"Yes, that Bai Lian is my younger half-sister from the same father."
Dr. Zuo didn't say anything further; he knew that Bai Shaoke's information was incorrect.
This year's freshmen only Bai Lian and Ning Xiao were well-known, even overshadowing Liang Wuyu's prominence.
Last month, before President Huang had asked him, Dr. Zuo had already received news about Bai Lian and her group from Bai Shaoke. They were from Xiangcheng with no significant background, so he initially rejected Bai Lian and the group of new students so decisively.
The students nearby were still discussing whether Zhou Wenqing was about to be promoted.
Going from a professor to a vice dean, and to the vice dean of Jiang University's School of Physics, at that, would grant him several times more power than he currently had.
