“Ah? Really?” Jian Yiyi couldn’t help but look surprised. She couldn’t help but rub her arms and have goosebumps all over.
Li Yunmei nodded seriously. “Of course. Everyone knows about this.”
The other girls quickly nodded in agreement. “Yes, Yiyi. We all know.”
“Almost all the Year One students know that Jian Ai’s mother works in a nightclub.”
“I think it’s at Yaochi. It’s a famous nightclub.”
Jian Yiyi blinked in disbelief and muttered, “But based on Jian Ai’s age, her mother should be in her thirties. Can she be in that industry in a nightclub at this age?”
“Hah, Yiyi, you are too naive.” Li Yunmei looked at Jian Yiyi as if she was experienced.” I have been to those nightclubs a few times. There are all kinds of ladies there. There are even some in their forties, let alone their thirties.”
Li Yunmei did not deliberately guide Jian Yiyi with her words. In her heart, Jian Ai’s mother was such a person. Jian Ai’s family was poor and dirty. Such a thought had long been branded in Li Yunmei’s mind.
“Oh my, I didn’t expect it to be like this.” Jian Yiyi seemed to have received incredible information. She looked shocked and muttered, “Jian Ai looks fair and clean. She is so good at studying and even has the same surname as me. I wanted to be friends with her.”
“How can you only look at the surface? Now you know why I don’t like her, right? You have to stay away from her,” Li Yunmei reminded Jian Yiyi.
Jian Yiyi nodded dumbly as if she were frightened.
Throughout the afternoon, Jian Yiyi was a little distracted by this matter. She instinctively sat close to the edge during class, as if Jian Ai had an illness.
Jian Ai didn’t care. She didn’t have any other thoughts about Jian Yiyi. Instead, she was thinking about the company the entire afternoon.
Bai Zhou was efficient and had many connections. They would probably be able to recruit people to fill up the company’s internal structure soon, so Jian Ai was thinking about where to start the first project.
After school in the afternoon, various luxury cars were parked outside Erzhong as usual. They were all here to pick up the students from school.
After Jian Yiyi had said goodbye to Li Yunmei, she got into a Mercedes-Benz by the side of the road. A middle-aged man was sitting in the backseat. The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was also fair-skinned. The stubble on his face was shaved clean. His half-length hair was smeared with oil and combed neatly. He was dressed upright and looked handsome. His figure under the well-tailored black suit was not out of shape at all. There was no trace of a middle-aged man.
“Dad!” Jian Yiyi threw herself into the man’s arms as soon as she got into the car and called out to him.
This person was none other than Jian Changsheng, the CEO of the Jian Group, one of the top corporations in Baiyun City!
Jian Changsheng’s expression softened when he saw his daughter. He raised his hand and patted Jian Yiyi’s shoulder. “How was it, Yiyi? Are you used to your first day of school?”
Jian Yiyi raised her head from Jian Changsheng’s arms. She nodded and then shook her head.
Jian Changsheng frowned and raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong? Did something upset you?”
“Not really…” Jian Yiyi pouted and sighed. “I want to change seats.”
Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but chuckle. His eyes were filled with love. “I thought something made my precious daughter unhappy. It turns out that she didn’t get along well with her new tablemate.”
