Jian Ai looked up and saw a youth in a school uniform who had changed into slippers walking in.
The young man was about 1.75 meters tall and had short hair. His skin was bronze, and he was slightly muscular. One could tell that he liked to exercise.
However, Jian Ai was stunned when she saw the school uniform on him. He was from Erzhong!
Chen Qidong saw Jian Ai immediately and was shocked. For a moment, he thought he had entered the wrong door.
When he saw Jian Ai’s face, the shock in his eyes intensified. He opened his mouth. “Aren’t you… Aren’t you…”
The name reached his mouth, but he couldn’t remember it!
Jian Ai was helpless. Since the other party was from Erzhong, it was not surprising that he knew her. She immediately stood up and greeted, “Hello, my name is Jian Ai!”
“Yes, yes! Jian Ai!” Chen Qidong looked enlightened. He couldn’t help but ask Jian Ai, “You… Why are you at my house?”
Jian Ai had never seen Chen Qidong before, but that did not mean Chen Qidong did not know her. After all, everyone knew about her matter over the past two days. Probably everyone in Erzhong knew her now.
Jian Ai was about to say something when she heard footsteps from upstairs. Then, Chen Lei’s voice sounded. “Qidong is back!”
Chen Lei took off his suit and changed into dark gray home clothes. He lost some of his business dignity and looked more approachable.
Seeing Jian Ai, he couldn’t help but smile. “Xiao Ai is here too!”
Jian Ai smiled and greeted, “Uncle Chen!”
Looking at their interaction, Chen Qidong was even more surprised. Besides, what did his father call her just now?
Xiao Ai?
It was too intimate!
He couldn’t help but throw his bag on the sofa and quickly walk to Chen Lei. “Dad, why… why is she at our house?”
Chen Lei was stunned. Suspicion flashed across his face. “You two know each other?”
“No!” Chen Qidong said, “But she’s from our school!”
When Chen Lei heard this, he couldn’t help but look at Jian Ai. “Xiao Ai is from Erzhong, too?”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile bitterly and nod. “Uncle Chen, I was wearing my school uniform yesterday!”
Yesterday, Jian Ai went straight to Century Group to look for Chen Lei after school. She was wearing Erzhong’s school uniform.
Chen Lei held his forehead in frustration. “Uncle was careless. I didn’t notice!”
He couldn’t help but pat Chen Qidong’s shoulder and explain, “Xiao Ai is my friend’s daughter. Her parents weren’t at home today, so Dad invited her to our house for dinner!”
Chen Lei had promised to keep Xiao Ai’s identity a secret, so he even hid it from his son!
When Chen Qidong heard this, he looked at his father skeptically and then at Jian Ai’s harmless smile.
Why didn’t he remember that one of his father’s friends had such a daughter?
At this moment, Liu Lin came out of the kitchen with freshly squeezed fruit juice. She heard what was going on outside and couldn’t help but look at them with a smile. “What a coincidence. I didn’t expect Xiao Ai and Qidong to be from the same school.”
The rumors in school were not friendly to Jian Ai. Chen Qidong only knew Jian Ai because of those rumors, so he had a bad impression of her.
He pursed his lips and glanced at Jian Ai. “I’m a year older than her!”
Jian Ai didn’t care. The other party didn’t know her, so it was normal for him to be affected by the rumors!
