Jian Ai nodded. “That’s right.”
Jian Yu was very surprised. Even though he could tell from what he felt alone that Ji Haoxue gave off that she had a good family background, Jian Yu had never thought that she would be the daughter of the Ji Group.
“Why did she call you?” Jian Yu asked curiously.
Jian Ai returned to the sofa and sat down. She looked up at Jian Yu and said, “She said she wanted to invite me to the Ji residence as a guest. I promised her before.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai looked at Jian Yu and asked, “She wants you to come along, Are you going?”
“Forget it.” Jian Yu shook his head and refused without thinking. A top-notch noble family like this would have many rules. No matter how friendly the other party was, he would still feel uncomfortable.
Jian Ai smiled. She knew this would be the result, so she didn’t insist.
In the evening, Jian Changsheng especially ended the company’s work early and returned home. However, he saw Qiao Shuyi lying on the sofa, looking helpless.
“What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?” Jian Changsheng quickly walked to the sofa and sat beside Qiao Shuyi.
He reached out with the back of his hand to touch Qiao Shuyi’s forehead, but found that she did not have a fever.
Qiao Shuyi sighed and took Jian Changsheng’s hand off. Then, she said, “It’s Yiyi. She insisted on signing with an entertainment company. She wouldn’t listen, no matter what I say.”
“Huh?” Jian Changsheng was shocked. “Sign with an entertainment company? When did this happen?”
Qiao Shuyi sat up straight and looked at Jian Changsheng. “I thought little of it before, so I didn’t tell you. After we came back from the capital, didn’t I take Yiyi and Yichen shopping?”
Jian Changsheng thought for a moment and nodded. He had an impression of this.
Seeing this, Qiao Shuyi continued, “That day, a scout from an entertainment company suddenly appeared. He said that he liked Yiyi and Yichen’s appearance and wanted to take photos of them. Yichen rejected him, but Yiyi let them take a few photos. Then, that person exchanged contact details with Yiyi
and left.”
“Tt was initially a small interlude, so I didn’t take it to heart. Who knew that the other party’s company called today to say that they took a liking to Yiyi’s image and wanted to sign a contract with her? I didn’t ask about the details.”
‘As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Shuyi couldn’t help but sigh. She leaned on the arm of the sofa and held her forehead with one hand. “You know your daughter, too. I can’t win against her when she’s willful. She’ll be taking the college entrance examination in two years. Why would she sign with an
entertainment company at this time? This will affect her studies!”
Qiao Shuyi had always been gentle and rarely insisted on anything, From her tone, it was obvious that she disapproved of Jian Yiyi being a celebrity at this age.
Moreover, who could say that one would become a celebrity after signing with a company? By then, they would gain nothing and delay their studies. That would not be worth it.
Jian Changsheng understood what she meant. Seeing Qiao Shuyi’s worried expression, he couldn’t help but pat the back of her hand and comfort her. “Alright, don’t get angry. I’ll talk to her.”
Qiao Shuyi couldn’t help but look at Jian Changsheng. “Husband, we can’t agree to this no matter what. This isn’t a game. Yiyi should focus on her studies now.”
“Yes, I know. Don’t worry!” Jian Changsheng stood up. “Tl go up and talk to her. Ask Nanny Xu to prepare dinner. I haven’t eaten since noon.”
