Jian Ai couldn’t help but laugh. She looked at Lin Yi and said, “I’m fine. After I’m done, I’ll report back to the martial arts school. Tell the Master not to worry about me.”
Hearing Jian Ai’s words, Lin Yi could only nod.
Not wanting them to focus on her, Jian Ai couldn’t help but look at Guan Tao and Gao Yang. She asked teasingly, “Gao Yang, how does it feel to work?”
“Pretty good,” Gao Yang said bluntly.
Yan Tian pretended to be mushy and shook his body. Then, he looked at Gao Yang and said, “Gao Yang, you’ve let Qinghuan down. What did Qinghuan say about you back then?”
!!
When Gao Yang heard this, he looked at Yan Tian in confusion. “She said so much. How can I remember what she said?”
Lin Yi added in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Qinghuan said that you’re a cold and restrained male G.o.d. When you grow up, you’ll be a domineering and expressionless CEO!”
“In the end, who would have thought that you were so romantic?!” Yan Tian clicked his tongue in wonder. “To think that you could think of working at a fast-food restaurant for Tao Zi.”
Lin Yi smiled. “This is called being cold on the outside but hot on the inside?”
Yan Tian shook his head and hit the nail on the head. “It’s called being pa.s.sionate!”
“Pfft…” Jian Ai couldn’t help but laugh. “This word is quite appropriate. It’s suitable for Gao Yang in love.”
However, Gao Yang was unmoved by their echoing voices. On the other hand, Guan Tao couldn’t help but blush.
“Don’t say that. He just wants to experience it. He means nothing else,” Guan Tao said anxiously.
It was fine if she didn’t say it, but once she did, Yan Tian became energetic again. “Oh, look at how much Tao Zi’s heart aches for you. Now, we can’t even joke about Gao Yang. Alright, alright. We’ll stop talking.”
Lin Yi and Jian Ai were smiling happily at the side. Si Yue looked at everyone inexplicably.
Yan Tian embarra.s.sed Guan Tao, but Gao Yang calmly held Guan Tao’s hand and mumbled, “Ignore him.”
At this moment, Jian Ai’s phone rang. Jian Ai smiled and listened to them as she picked up the phone.
It was her mother.
“Xiao Ai, come home for dinner after school today,” w.a.n.g Yunmei said.
Although it was her usual words, Jian Ai could hear something different in w.a.n.g Yunmei’s tone. She couldn’t help but ask, “Mom, what’s the matter?”
w.a.n.g Yunmei didn’t expect her daughter to be so sharp. She said nothing, but she heard it.
“There is something. Let’s talk when you’re back tonight,” w.a.n.g Yunmei calmed herself down and tried her best to speak calmly.
Jian Ai knew her mother and knew that she had something important to tell her. Although she still had to go to the company at night, she still had time to go home for a meal.
“Alright, I’ll go back after school,” Jian Ai said.
w.a.n.g Yunmei hung up and leaned against the sofa as if she had been sucked dry.
w.a.n.g Yunzhi, who was resting at home, couldn’t help but look at her worriedly. “Sister, are you okay?”
w.a.n.g Yunmei sighed and shook her head. “I’m fine. It’s just that my heart thumped when I thought about telling Xiao Ai about this.”
In the end, she was still nervous and afraid.
w.a.n.g Yunzhi stood up and sat down. She sighed as well. “Xiao Yu already knows. We can’t hide this from Xiao Ai for long. Xiao Yu is right. Taking the initiative to tell Xiao Ai is different from waiting for her to know. Since you have such a plan, why don’t you be calm and not give yourself so much pressure?”
w.a.n.g Yunmei understood the logic, but she couldn’t control her body’s reaction.
Moreover, her daughter knew Jian Changsheng. If she knew they were father and daughter, she was afraid that it would be a blow to her daughter.
“Zhi, how do you think Xiao Ai will react?” w.a.n.g Yunmei looked at her sister uneasily and asked.
Seeing her state, w.a.n.g Yunzhi knew she was too nervous.
She couldn’t help but pat her hand and try her best to comfort her. “Don’t you know your daughter? Xiao Ai is so sensible, so she naturally understands you! Besides, you did nothing wrong. What are you nervous about? The consequences of this matter are at most another person who hates Jian Changsheng.”
“Don’t worry. We’re all here tonight. Take this opportunity to tell Xiao Ai everything she should know. She’s not a child anymore, so she does have the right to know these things. Otherwise, think about it. Jian Changsheng and Xiao Ai are both real estate developers, so they will inevitably meet often. You don’t want Jian Ai to know nothing about Jian Changsheng, right?” w.a.n.g Yunzhi added.
w.a.n.g Yunmei nodded. “You’re right. Xiao Ai needs to know what kind of person Jian Changsheng is.”
After school in the afternoon, Jian Ai took a taxi home.
As soon as she entered, she smelled the familiar fragrance of food. Jian Ai couldn’t help but call out, “Mom, I’m back. It smells so good!”
“Xiao Ai is back.” w.a.n.g Yunzhi came out to welcome her. She went forward and took the bag from Jian Ai’s hand. “Your mother is in the kitchen. Rest for a while. Your brother will be back soon.”
“Everyone’s here today,” Jian Ai said with a smile. Seeing that w.a.n.g Yunmei didn’t come out of the kitchen, she couldn’t help but pull her aunt over and ask in a low voice, “Aunt, did something happen?”
w.a.n.g Yunzhi was stunned for a moment before smiling. “You’re such a smart child. There’s something. Let’s talk about it during dinner later.”
w.a.n.g Yunzhi tried her best to lighten the atmosphere and lay the groundwork for what w.a.n.g Yunmei would say later.
As expected, seeing that her aunt was happy, Jian Ai felt it shouldn’t be a bad thing.
She changed her shoes and went straight into the kitchen. w.a.n.g Yunmei was stewing chicken. Jian Ai hadn’t seen her mother for a while. She couldn’t help but hug her from behind intimately and smile. “Mom’s chicken is delicious.”
“Eat more later. If I didn’t call you, you wouldn’t have come back for a meal and seen us,” w.a.n.g Yunmei pretended to be angry to hide the mess in her heart.
Jian Ai didn’t notice and only answered coquettishly, “There have been a lot of things going on in the company recently. Aunt should have told you, right? I’m really busy. After dinner, I still have to go to the company to work overtime.”
When w.a.n.g Yunmei heard this, her heart couldn’t help but ache. She couldn’t help but turn her head to look at her daughter’s face on her shoulder. She instructed with concern, “Don’t be too tired. Look at your dark circles. No matter how much work you have, it’s not as important as your health.”
“I know, Mom. It’s a special period. Manager Bai isn’t around, so I’ll take over temporarily. I didn’t have to worry about these things in the past,” Jian Ai quickly explained.
w.a.n.g Yunmei knew that a big company like Jian Ai’s wouldn’t have an easy time, so she said nothing. She nodded and chased Jian Ai out. “Alright, don’t delay my cooking. Go out and wait.”
