Jian Ai thought for a while and nodded.
Since she already knew, there was no need to hide. Furthermore, three of the twelve guards had already seen her, so she did not want to treat Yun Buyao differently.
However…
Jian Ai said, “I’m about to take my final examination. If we want to meet, arrange for us to meet during the summer break.”
Yun Buyao was still filming in Baiyun City, so there was no hurry.
When Bai Zhou heard this, he quickly nodded in agreement and in delight. “Alright, Sect Master. She will be thrilled upon knowing this.”
Jian Ai smiled but couldn’t.
Yun Buyao, that superstar who was doted on by millions, was actually from the ancient sect.
…
The next morning, Jian Ai ate breakfast and went out as usual. However, she saw Si Yuehan carrying his school bag and leaning against the tree outside the yard, waiting for her.
“Have you eaten breakfast?” Jian Ai asked as she walked forward.
Si Yuehan’s expression was still cold, even when facing the Sect Master—Jian Ai. He only kept his respect for her in the bottom of his heart but did not show it on his face.
Compared to Xiao Zhen, Si Yuehan’s had a more eccentric personality.
He nodded and said, “Yes.”
The two of them walked towards the bus stop side by side. Jian Ai suddenly felt that this feeling was good. Guan Tao’s family had already moved to Zhonglou District, so she had been going to school alone during this period. It was also good to have someone accompanying her.
“Aren’t your parents worried you came to Baiyun City like this?”
The two of them were walking when Jian Ai suddenly asked.
When Si Yuehan heard this, he only answered softly, “I’m an orphan.”
Jian Ai was stunned and couldn’t help but turn to look at Si Yuehan. She saw that his expression was indifferent and with no fluctuation, as if he was talking about something that didn’t concern him.
Knowing that he was a man of few words, Jian Ai thought he wouldn’t say anything else. Unexpectedly, Si Yuehan suddenly said, “I started wandering since I was six years old. At ten years old, the power of darkness awakened. After that, Brother Bai Zhou found me. According to the ranking list of the twelve guards, I learned I was ranked sixth, ‘The Shadow Asura.'”
“Have you been living with Bai Zhou ever since?” Jian Ai asked.
Si Yuehan answered, “I followed him to Qiusi and lived there for four years.”
So that was how it was. Jian Ai didn’t know what to feel. He started wandering around when he was six years old. Society was vicious. As a boy, he could live alone for four years.
When they reached school, the two of them entered Erzhong.
“Xiao Ai!”
Xia Qinghuan’s voice called to her from behind.
When she got closer, Xia Qinghuan’s smile froze on her face because an expressionless Si Yuehan was standing beside Jian Ai.
“Hi…” Xia Qinghuan greeted awkwardly.
However, there was no response.
Jian Ai smiled and said to Si Yuehan, “Go back to the classroom first.”
Si Yuehan nodded and turned to leave.
Xia Qinghuan saw this and was so shocked that her eyeballs were about to fly out. “Damn, what’s going on, Jian Ai? Don’t tell me you subdued Si Yuehan in just a day?”
Jian Ai sweated and pretended to be angry as she glared at Xia Qinghuan. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
“No… Then what’s going on? Tell me quickly, or I won’t be friends with you anymore!” Xia Qinghuan looked agitated.
What a joke. This was Si Yuehan. When he transferred here, he didn’t say a word to anyone. Now, he appeared with Jian Ai and looked very obedient!
