Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School

1359 The Last Time I Say These Things

Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile and nod. “Yes, I just came back today.”

Without waiting for Jian Ai to ask, Jian Yichen said, “My father is looking for you.”

Jian Ai was stunned for a moment. When she reacted, her expression changed.

Jian Yichen saw this but said nothing. He only said, “He’s standing opposite the road.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Yichen turned around and left.

Jian Ai looked up in Jian Yichen’s direction and across the road. Across the busy street, a tall and slender figure was standing under the streetlamp. Beside him was a black Rolls-Royce car.

Without looking, Jian Ai recognized the other party as Jian Changsheng.

The others around her were stunned. Everyone knew that Jian Yichen was Jian Yiyi’s brother and that he had a good relationship with Jian Ai.

But today, Jian Yichen’s father was looking for Jian Ai and even came to school? How did Jian Ai know the CEO of the Jian Group?

“Xiao Ai…” Xia Qinghuan pursed her lips. She wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say.

Jian Ai’s expression was dark, and she frowned. Jian Changsheng’s action of finding her at the school gate made her unhappy.

This person was too arrogant!

“Do you want to go over? We can wait for you,” Lin Yi said softly.

Jian Ai thought for a moment and exhaled deeply. “Wait for me here. I’ll be right back.”

Tightening her down jacket, Jian Ai walked across the road.

Jian Yichen sat in the car. He knew his father had something to say to Jian Ai alone. Although he was curious, he was not a busybody.

Jian Ai stood in front of Jian Changsheng and looked up at him with no emotions or warmth in her eyes.

Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but feel nervous. Ever since he knew that Jian Ai was his daughter, he didn’t have a chance to see her. Looking at his daughter in front of him, Jian Changsheng had mixed emotions.

Jian Changsheng’s lips moved slightly. He wanted to call her Xiao Ai, but he couldn’t when he saw Jian Ai’s cold eyes.

“What’s the matter?” Jian Ai spoke first. Her indifferent tone was even colder than the cold sky.

Jian Changsheng’s heart stopped. A bitter taste surged in his throat.

The Jian Group’s CEO’s rationality and calmness had long disintegrated when facing his biological daughter. All that was left was helplessness and disappointment.

“Xiao… Xiao Ai,” Jian Changsheng said with difficulty. He had a goal on this trip. No matter what, he had to say it.

Jian Ai looked at him. She already knew the reason Jian Changsheng was looking for her, but she didn’t say or ask. She waited for him to say it himself.

After a while, Jian Changsheng continued, “I came to look for you for no other reason than to invite your East Sea Real Estate to join South City’s reconstruction project. I know you hate me, but I also know that you’re different from ordinary children. You’re calm and rational when something happens, and you know how to analyze the pros and cons. Therefore, I hope you can distinguish between public and private matters. I think you know very well how important this opportunity is to a company. It’s a huge loss to miss it.”

Jian Changsheng’s voice was gentle and slow. He didn’t have the dignified aura of an elder. Instead, he sounded like he was pleading.

“Separate public and private matters?” Jian Ai was unmoved. Her expression did not change. She looked at Jian Changsheng and asked, “What do you mean by separating public and private matters? What private matters do I have with CEO Jian? How can my small East Sea Real Estate company receive the Jian Group’s favor? Is CEO Jian separating public and private matters now?”

Jian Ai’s voice was cold but aggressive. Every word stabbed into Jian Changsheng’s heart like an ice blade.

Without waiting for Jian Changsheng to speak, Jian Ai continued, “Jian Changsheng, stop thinking too highly of yourself. Who do you think you are? Do you think you can erase your past sins by doing this? Stop feeling touched! The more you’re like this, the more disgusted I feel!”

“This is the last time I’ll say these words. Listen carefully! I have nothing to do with you. What happens to my company, my mother, my brother, and me has nothing to do with you! The only relationship I have with you is with you’re my competitor in the real estate world!”

“Don’t come to me on your own in the future, especially on such an occasion! Yichen is not a child anymore. I believe he already has doubts in his heart. If Jian Yiyi sees this again, aren’t you afraid of being exposed? Are you not afraid of ruining your current happy life?”

Jian Changsheng was speechless. He moved his mouth and said, “Xiao Ai… I…”

Jian Ai looked away and interrupted him. “Put away your pity. My mother raised me and my brother without you all these years. Now that we’re rich and have nothing to worry about, you don’t have to worry!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai turned around and glanced at the rearview mirror of the car. She met Jian Yichen’s gaze in the mirror.

Jian Ai’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly put away the hidden anger on her face and instinctively smiled at Jian Yichen.

Then, she crossed the road without looking back.

Under the street lamp, Jian Changsheng looked at Jian Ai’s back with a defeated expression. His heart was riddled with holes, but he felt he had no right to feel pain.

He deserved all of this. Xiao Ai should hate him, and so should Xiao Yu.

After returning to the car, Jian Yichen sat in the front passenger seat and looked up at Jian Changsheng, who was sitting in the backseat. He said calmly, “Dad… are you okay?”

Jian Changsheng instinctively looked at Jian Yichen.

He didn’t ask why he was looking for Jian Ai or what was wrong. Instead, he asked if he was okay.

It seemed to be a word of concern, but Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but feel afraid.

“Dad is fine. It’s too cold. My face is stiff from the wind.” Jian Changsheng returned to normal and smiled.

Jian Yichen didn’t ask further. He just looked at the school gate and said, “My sister is out.”

Jian Changsheng’s appearance did not affect Jian Ai’s mood to go to the gathering with her friends. They sat in Lin Yi’s nanny van and went to the beef hotpot restaurant Yan Tian mentioned.

“Come, cover your face. Go in and go straight to the private room.” Yan Tian covered Qinghuan’s face with his scarf, afraid that someone would recognize her.

Qinghuan let Yan Tian fiddle with her, but she said, “Brother Jin sent me a message this afternoon saying that the company assigned me a bodyguard…”

“Bodyguard?” Yan Tian paused for a moment when he heard that. Then, he said, “Is it the kind of person who stops fans around celebrities in the news?”

Qinghuan nodded. Guan Tao couldn’t help but think of what had happened last night. She quickly said, “Yesterday, a passerby recognized Qinghuan and rushed up excitedly. It was terrifying!”

“Qinghuan’s company is quite reliable. I think those celebrities usually have bodyguards protecting them. Qinghuan should have one too,” Lin Yi added.

Jian Ai knew that Xiang Nanfeng had gone to Rose Entertainment for an interview according to her wishes and was relieved.
