Jian Yiyi’s goal was to be in the top ten in the city. She was initially quite happy, but when she looked up, she saw Jian Ai was ranked first.
Jian Yiyi: “…”
The smile froze and gradually disappeared.
Jian Ai had always been in first place during the school examination, while she had always been in second place. It did not look like there was such an obvious difference.
However, now that there were five more people in the rankings between them, their difference became obvious.
It was not that Jian Yiyi could not lose. She just didn’t want to lose to Jian Ai.
Moreover, was she a monster? Why was she ranked first in the entire city? Was she going to take first place every time?
Li Yunmei also saw Jian Ai’s name above Jian Yiyi’s and sensibly shut her mouth.
Previously, Jian Yiyi always lost, and she even encouraged Jian Yiyi to work harder next time. However, after trying a few times and failing, she didn’t dare to say anything.
When they returned to class, the students surrounded them excitedly.
“Jian Ai, you’re too amazing. You’re the top in the city!”
“That’s right. I really don’t know how you did it!”
“If you can maintain this result, all the universities will fight to have you during the college entrance examination.”
The most obvious benefit from the autumn trip was that Jian Ai and Guan Tao were more familiar with the other students in the class, so it was not surprising that everyone suddenly surrounded her to congratulate her.
Jian Ai smiled and chatted with them, but Lin Yi, who was sitting in the corner, was alone with a dark cloud over his head.
He always remembered Jian Ai saying that she wanted to enter Capital University.
He also had to accompany Jian Ai to Capital University.
However, the results of the preliminary examination this time were very uncertain. Although he was only in Year Two and the preliminary examination was not considered much, Lin Yi told himself that he had to feel threatened and work hard.
Jian Ai had already reached the peak and would not be stronger. He was the one who needed to work hard. In two years, he had to chase up to Jian Ai even if he had to risk his life.
During the morning self-study, Jian Ai’s phone vibrated in her pocket.
She picked it up and saw that it was Bai Zhou.
Jian Ai couldn’t help but slap her forehead in frustration. When she woke up this morning, she said that she wanted to call him back but forgot.
The teacher didn’t come. Jian Ai bent down and picked it up. “Hello!”
“Boss, are you back?” Bai Zhou’s voice on the other end of the phone was not as lively as before, and it revealed a rare sense of seriousness.
Jian Ai said, “I’m back. I was too tired yesterday. I fell asleep and didn’t hear my phone ring. Did something happen?”
“Something happened,” Bai Zhou said.
“About the company?” Jian Ai asked.
“Yes,” Bai Zhou answered and asked, “When do you have time to come over?”
Jian Ai wanted to say after school in the afternoon, but she thought about it and said, “I’ll go over after school at noon. What happened? Why does it sound serious?”
“It’s not serious. I can’t explain it over the phone. Let’s talk when you come over at noon. There’s no hurry,” Bai Zhou said.
When the bell rang for the fourth lesson in the afternoon, Jian Ai said to Qinghuan, “I have something on at noon, so I won’t be eating with you. If I’m not back for class in the afternoon, help me apply for leave from The Great Sage Sun.”
She had at least gotten first in the city, so she could still ask for leave.
Xia Qinghuan nodded in agreement.
Jian Ai left the school and hailed a taxi, heading straight for East Sea Real Estate.
“What’s going on?”
In the office, Jian Ai asked anxiously.
