Chapter 418: It’s Only Been a Few Days, but He Has Been Exposed!
However, it was not difficult for Jian Ai to guess Bai Zhou’s intentions. She had once told him that the time was not ripe yet, and that she was still adapting to the new ident.i.ty of the sect master, so he should not inform the other ancient sect members for the time being.
Bai Zhou had always obeyed her orders. He was not willing to go against her words, but he wanted someone to protect her by her side. Hence, he had this idea to let Si Yuehan disguise as her cla.s.smate to protect her.
In the end, Bai Zhou acted on his own. After all, he hid this matter from Jian Ai.
However, Jian Ai understood Bai Zhou’s thoughts, so she did not blame him. Moreover, she had been in constant trouble recently, and it was Si Yuehan who had helped her settle it.
Sighing softly, Jian Ai looked at Si Yuehan’s ice-stony face and thought to herself, ‘It has been hard on him.’
As soon as he reached school, he became a popular person in school because of his cold image. His personality was also strange, so it was difficult for her not to notice him.
“You’re living at Bai Zhou’s now?” Jian Ai asked softly.
Si Yuehan pursed his lips and nodded. “Yes.”
Jian Ai raised her eyebrows in understanding. From the moment Si Yuehan appeared in South City, she could tell that he was not from South City.
She initially planned to go to her aunt’s house for dinner today, but she didn’t expect such a thing to happen. Now that she had exposed Si Yuehan, it wouldn’t be right for her not to look for Bai Zhou.
Jian Ai said, “I’ll go back with you.”
When Si Yuehan heard this, a rare trace of hesitation appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile. “So you have an expression too!”
As if knowing what Si Yuehan was worried about, Jian Ai said faintly, “Don’t worry, I will not denounce you. I miss Chi Yang’s cooking. I’m going to have a meal!”
Si Yuehan remained silent, but he relaxed slightly.
In the apartment, Bai Zhou was flipping through the business reports in Baiyun City. He was drinking the coffee that Chi Yang had just brewed.
At this moment, Chi Yang poked his head out of the kitchen in a rainbow-colored ap.r.o.n and said to Bai Zhou on the sofa, “Master, how do you want to eat the ba.s.s today?”
Bai Zhou answered without looking up, “Steam it. Si Yuexi likes his food light.”
When Chi Yang heard this, he couldn’t help but remind him, “Master, Lord Si doesn’t like to eat fish. I bought this fish especially for you.”
Bai Zhou realized and said calmly, “Sweet and sour.”
Chi Yang: “Alright.”
When Chi Yang retreated into the kitchen, someone opened the door of the apartment from the outside.
Bai Zhou was holding a newspaper in his hand. When he heard that, he casually said, “You’re back.”
Although he didn’t look up, he knew who had returned. After all, only he, Chi Yang, and Si Yuehan had the key to this apartment.
Jian Ai followed Si Yuehan into the apartment. Seeing that Bai Zhou was reading the newspaper without looking up, she couldn’t help but say, “What are you looking at? You’re so engrossed.”
Bai Zhou bounced up from the sofa in shock.
He looked up and saw Si Yuehan’s cold face. Jian Ai was standing at the side, looking at him with a faint smile.
“Sect… Sect Master!”
As Bai Zhou spoke, his heart thumped. He thought to himself, ‘Oh no, he was exposed so quickly?’
He glanced at Si Yuehan nervously and saw Si Yuehan nod dejectedly.
Bai Zhou: “…”
It had only been a few days, but he had already been exposed!
However, this was not the most important thing now. As one of the twelve guards, letting Si Yuehan, who was also one of the twelve guards, appear in front of Jian Ai without her permission—it was already a huge crime!
