16: I'll Go On Stage

I'll Go On Stage

Jian Yu blushed and stammered. He didn't admit nor deny it.0

Jian Ai became more certain, but she was also curious about what kind of girl her brother liked.

"Xiao Ai, get the bowl and chopsticks."

Wang Yunmei's voice came from the kitchen. Jian Yu took advantage of the situation and wanted to go to the kitchen, but Jian Ai pulled him back. Jian Ai stuffed the five hundred yuan into Jian Yu's pocket and said, "Now that you have a girlfriend, you need even more money with you. I can't let my brother spend a girl's money!"

Jian Yu didn't know what to do. After all, this was his first time dating. He didn't expect his sister to expose him the moment he got home. He didn't know what to say as he held the five hundred yuan in his hand. By the time he reacted, Jian Ai had already entered the kitchen.

During dinner, the family of three chatted as they ate.

Wang Yunmei placed a piece of pork ribs into Jian Ai's bowl and asked, "Xiao Ai, is the monthly examination coming up?"

Jian Ai nodded. The form teacher reminded the students that the monthly examination would be held on the following Monday so they could revise during the weekend.

"Mom, don't worry. I can score well," Jian Ai said calmly.

Seeing how confident her daughter was, Wang Yunmei couldn't help but nod. "It's good that you're confident."

It could be said that Wang Yunmei had placed all her hopes on Jian Ai, and her daughter had never disappointed her. Since she was young, her grades had always been outstanding.

Jian Ai also knew that her mother did not have too many expectations for her. She only hoped that she could get into a good university and have a promising future. In her previous life, she had fulfilled her mother's expectations but left behind many regrets.

After dinner, Wang Yunmei put on her makeup and changed into a new set of clothes. The thirty-five-year-old woman changed her looks in an instant. In Jian Ai's eyes, this made her feel even worse.

Her mother had sacrificed too much for her and her brother that alcohol had consumed her entire youth. With this, she could not wait any longer. She had to think of a way to earn money as soon as possible.

The next day, Jian Ai and Guan Tao felt a strange atmosphere as soon as they entered the school.

Everyone was looking at the two of them, and there was no lack of whispers among them. The topic was none other than the fight yesterday evening.

Jian Ai was already mentally prepared. After all, the incident had happened at the school gate. Since they couldn't stop the gossip, they could go and talk it out.

When they returned to the classroom, the students looked at them as if they were looking at a monster. Jian Ai acted as if she did not see them and went straight to her seat.

At this moment, Xu Jiaojiao, who was sitting in front of her, turned around with a gossipy expression. Her attitude was more excited than yesterday. "Jian Ai, I heard that you beat up Li Yunmei after school yesterday?"

Jian Ai raised her eyes to look at Xu Jiaojiao, who was waiting for her to nod and admit it.

Sneering in her heart, Jian Ai said expressionlessly, "Does it have anything to do with you?"

Xu Jiaojiao's expression stiffened as if she didn't expect Jian Ai to have such an attitude. However, when she saw Jian Ai's icy cold gaze, Xu Jiaojiao swallowed her words and resentfully turned around.

Jian Ai could not help but roll her eyes, but she sighed helplessly in her heart.

Although she did not want to live as a nobody as she did in her previous life, she did not want to be watched like a monkey every day like she was now. It could be said that she appeared on stage repeatedly, putting on an act one after another.
