Chapter 101: This Was Fate
In the cafeteria at noon.
A few of them gathered around and were talking about what had happened in the Mathematics class that morning.
“Jian Ai, how did you learn all the knowledge in Year Three? You’re too shameless,” Xia Qinghuan said to Jian Ai as she took two mouthfuls of Coke.
Jian Ai looked at her with amusement. “You can learn it too.”
Xia Qinghuan: “I don’t want to. You’re the only one who likes to show off.”
Guan Tao secretly looked at Jian Yiyi not far away and said in a low voice, “That Jian Yiyi is pretty smart. I couldn’t solve the question today.”
“I couldn’t solve it either.” Xia Qinghuan pursed her lips. Then, she looked at Jian Ai and raised her eyebrows. “Jian Ai, how’s your new tablemate? She seems to be from a good family and is quite nice.”
Jian Ai stopped eating and shook her head. “I didn’t have much contact with her.”
“She seems to be on very good terms with Li Yunmei, but she looks like she’s easier to get along with compared to Li Yunmei,” Guan Tao said.
At the mention of Li Yunmei, Xia Qinghuan thought of the fountain pen incident that morning. She looked at Jian Ai with lingering fear and said, “If you stabbed the fountain pen incorrectly today, we probably won’t be able to see you now.”
Guan Tao nodded. “That scared me. You’re too bold, Xiao Ai.”
Jian Ai nibbled on her mantou and gave them a comforting look. “I know my limits.”
On the other side.
Yan Tian was viciously stabbing his chopsticks into his bowl of rice, but his gaze was fixed on Jian Ai in the distance.
“Hey! Hey! Yan Tian!” Lin Yi knocked on his plate with his chopsticks and frowned. “Do you have a feud with this bowl of rice? What are you stabbing at?”
“He’s just angry that Jian Ai stole his girlfriend and is using rice to vent his anger,” Gao Yang took a sip of fruit juice and said indifferently.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile. “Boring. You’re even jealous of girls. It’s not easy for Qinghuan to meet a girl she likes as a friend. You should be happy for her.”
“I’m not happy! Why should I be!” Yan Tian pulled his handsome face and said with a glare, “She’s not even eating with us anymore.”
Lin Yi and Gao Yang smiled at Yan Tian’s angry expression and shook their heads. “Childish.”
At that moment, Li Yunmei was pulling Jian Yiyi to a small group so that she could introduce her.
“She is Jian Yiyi, my best friend who grew up with me.” Li Yunmei introduced her to the girls who usually surrounded her.
Those girls gave her face and were surprised to see Jian Yiyi. “Yiyi, you’re so beautiful!”
“Your skin is good too. What brand of skincare products do you use?”
“This is custom-made, right? It suits you…”
Jian Yiyi smiled and talked to them like a lady. Li Yunmei said, “Do you know who Yiyi’s father is?”
The girls were stunned and shook their heads to indicate that they didn’t know.
Li Yunmei smiled and said, “You all know about the Jian Group, right?”
“Xiao Mei, are you talking about the Jian Group who is the leader of our city’s real estate industry?” One of the girls asked in surprise.
Li Yunmei gave her a knowing look. “That’s right! The Jian Group who is the leader in Baiyun City’s real estate industry. The chairman, Jian Changsheng, is Yiyi’s father. Uncle Jian and my father are childhood friends, which is why Yiyi and I have such a good relationship. This is fate. Some people have the same surname, Jian, but were born in that godforsaken place, South City.”
