When the documents and funds were dispatched to the Culture and Tourism Bureau, even the director was taken aback.

Even with Bai Lian’s involvement, this was unreasonably fast.

Not even a rocket could be this fast!

The news of Xiangcheng’s intention to establish a Calligraphy Association certainly did not escape Ren Qian’s attention. Around seven in the evening, Ren Qian, Qiu Xuezheng, and the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau were seated in the bureau’s conference room.

Because they were there to meet Qiu Xuezheng.

Ren Qian had specifically brought Ren Wanxuan, hoping to find time to have Qiu Xuezheng recommend her for next year’s membership quota.

This time Qiu Xuezheng did not refuse.

“I never imagined,” Ren Qian, more excited than the other two after reading the printed notice and documents, said, “that Xiangcheng would really establish a Calligraphy Association. Have the two of you chosen a location yet?”

Setting up the Calligraphy Association was an affirmation of Xiangcheng’s culture.

The Traditional Calligraphers Association would also allocate part of its members to join the local association, which was certainly great news for Xiangcheng.

Ren Qian knew it was probably because Qiu Boqing had won a third-class prize, but as Ren Wanxuan had been sulking lately over membership recommendations, no one in the Ren Family dared to mention the Orchid Pavilion Award.

So Ren Qian pretended not to know about Qiu Boqing’s participation in the competition.

“This is Minister Xu, who was just promoted today to help us establish the association. I don’t know if they will dispatch some prestigious teachers here,” the bureau director passed the documents to Minister Xu, “It would be great if some teachers from Jiangjing could come…”

Qiu Xuezheng nodded slightly to Minister Xu before pondering over the director’s question.

“You’re thinking too far ahead,” Qiu Xuezheng, familiar with the workings of the association, said, “Anyone from other places who comes to Xiangcheng would be considered demoted, and most would avoid such a demotion. So we really need to be careful with our choice of initial staff…”

People in Xiangcheng were all eager to leave.

A distinguished teacher would hardly want to come here.

“Wanxuan,” Qiu Xuezheng turned to Ren Wanxuan with a serious look, “I will list you and your senior brother as part of the first group to initiate the Xiangcheng Calligraphy Association.”

Entering the Traditional Calligraphers Association or the Beicheng Writers’ Association required a threshold.

But since the Xiangcheng Calligraphy Association was just starting, it was bound not to have many members initially.

To contribute to the Xiangcheng Calligraphy Association, Qiu Xuezheng had already submitted a transfer report to the Beicheng Writers’ Association at noon, and if all went smoothly, he could transfer before the Xiangcheng Calligraphy Association’s opening.

“Teacher, I understand,” Ren Wanxuan paused, then nodded.

The three elders continued to discuss the association’s affairs.

Ren Wanxuan had to go back for her tutorial classes and left along with Minister Xu, who was going to survey sites.

“Minister Xu,” Ren Wanxuan entered the elevator with him and looked at the documents in his hands, “may I take a look at the list of initial staff?”

She was somewhat curious as to how many people were on the list of initial staff.

Ren Qian’s only granddaughter, Qiu Xuezheng’s student, and one of the seed candidates for Jiangjing University, Minister Xu had thoroughly researched the Ren Family before his promotion.

He never expected Ren Wanxuan to initiate conversation with him.

Minister Xu quickly handed the documents to Ren Wanxuan: “Miss Ren, please feel free to look.”

Ren Wanxuan took the documents, the front listed several potential locations for the association, the middle section was the detailed planning, and she glanced over it briefly before flipping to the last page.

It was the list of initial staff.

As she expected, there were fewer than ten people, and aside from Qiu Boqing, she hardly recognized any of them.

Just as she was returning the documents to Minister Xu, something caught her eye, and suddenly, she snatched them back!

Minister Xu was startled by her action, instinctively looking at Ren Wanxuan.

Ren Wanxuan had her eyes downcast, her eyelashes concealing the coldness, and under the light, she appeared extremely cool as she flipped the file back to the last page.

At the bottom row of the initial staff list, she saw a name—

Bai Lian.

“Who decided on this quota?” Ren Wanxuan pointed to the name, looking at Minister Xu.

Minister Xu was only responsible for the initiation plan of the association, and assuming Ren Wanxuan was dissatisfied with the small number of people, he couldn’t help but sigh, “There’s no helping it, these few people were all pieced together by our director.”

Ren Wanxuan had anticipated such a situation.

She nodded slightly and moved her index finger to the last name on the list, “Remove her.”
