Chapter 543: Studying On Her Own
Seeing this, Yang Jie turned to Si Yuehan and asked, “Si Yue, what about you? What are your plans?”
Si Yuehan only looked at Jian Ai silently and answered in a low voice, “Then I’ll study hidden weapons with Senior Sister.”
Through their interactions and understanding over the past few days, Yang Jie could tell that Si Yue would accompany Xiao Ai no matter what.
Therefore, Yang Jie was not surprised that he made this decision.
“Alright, since you have this plan, I won’t force you to learn the type of martial arts that you’re not interested in. However, remember to prioritize your safety and not hurt yourself,” Yang Jie said.
Jian Ai and Si Yuehan nodded obediently.
When they came out of the main hall, the others who were waiting outside curiously surrounded them.
Qi Wei asked first, “Junior Sister, what did Master say to you?”
“Are you going to choose a type of martial arts to master?” Ning Zexuan guessed excitedly.
Jian Ai smiled and nodded. Then, she raised the book in her hand. “Si Yue and I both plan to learn hidden weapons.”
When everyone heard this, they exclaimed in unison, “Hidden weapons?”
Li Mobai frowned and thought for a moment before saying with uncertainty, “No one in Longxing seems to know how to use hidden weapons, right?”
Lin Yi took the book from Jian Ai’s hand and looked at the words on the cover. He muttered, “Sect’s hidden weapons?”
Jian Ai raised her eyebrows. “Master indeed doesn’t know how to use hidden weapons, but he gave me this book to study.”
Yu Yue widened his eyes in shock. “You mean you have to learn this yourself?”
The others also widened their eyes at the same time. Not everyone could master something without a teacher. Moreover, something like hidden weapons was usually seen on television. It didn’t sound like it was easy to master.
Jian Ai didn’t say it too confidently. She only said casually, “Anyway, I’m quite interested. I want to try it out. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll learn something else in the future.”
No one objected, but Jian Ai’s strange idea shocked them.
Although this matter did not look simple, no one poured cold water on her. Instead, they encouraged her.
At noon, Jian Ai didn’t stay at the martial arts school for lunch. Instead, she changed into a clean set of clothes and took a taxi to Baiyun Square in Haicheng District.
When Jian Ai arrived at an exquisitely renovated western restaurant, the person she had arranged to meet had already arrived.
“Uncle Chen, I’m sorry. I’m late.”
As soon as they met, Jian Ai said apologetically to Chen Lei.
Chen Lei was dressed in a black suit, and he looked even more energetic than the last time he saw her. He stood up and smiled at Jian Ai. “You’re not late. I was afraid that I would be late, so I came a little early.”
The two of them could be considered acquaintances. Not only had they established a cooperative relations.h.i.+p between the companies, but Jian Ai had even been invited to Chen Lei’s house for dinner, so she said nothing else and sat down.
After ordering, Chen Lei looked at Jian Ai and said gently, “If you have anything, you can look for me at the company. You don’t have to go through so much trouble and ask me out to a restaurant.”
If it were anyone else, Chen Lei would not say that they had gone through a lot of trouble to do this. It was because he felt like he was friends with Jian Ai and they treated each other as one of their own, so he was less worried and calmer when they chatted.
He said whatever he thought.
