Chapter 1397 - 1397 You're Back

1397 You’re Back

Guan Tao thought she saw things because she was so nervous. She blinked hard to confirm that the person who turned up at the entrance of her examination venue was Jian Ai.

For a moment, Guan Tao couldn’t control her excitement. She bounced up from her seat. Unexpectedly, the invigilator who suddenly appeared behind Jian Ai made Guan Tao swallow the words she wanted to say.

Jian Ai naturally saw Guan Tao as well. She immediately smiled at her, as if telling her—Tao Zi, I’m back.

Guan Tao’s eyes were red. She nodded at Jian Ai as if saying, “Xiao Ai, you’re finally back.”

They saved the joy of reuniting after a long time for later. The two of them communicated through their eyes and the air as a tacit understanding of greeting each other. When the bell rang, the two of them were ready to attack and answer the questions punctually!

Jian Ai especially returned during the college entrance examination because she did not want to miss this historical moment.

She initially thought that because of her cultivation progress, she would not have the chance to take the college entrance examination this year. Unexpectedly, a huge disaster suddenly happened in the country, directly affecting the day of the college entrance examination.

Otherwise, she planned to repeat her studies for a year and take the college entrance examination next year.

As soon as the examination ended, Jian Ai and Guan Tao walked out of the hall and hugged each other excitedly.

Guan Tao was so excited that tears streamed down her face. It had been two years since they last met, but she had never stopped thinking about Jian Ai.

“Xiao Ai, you’re finally back. I missed you so much!” Guan Tao cried.

Jian Ai held back her tears and hugged Guan Tao. “I miss you too. I miss Qinghuan…”

The surrounding examinees looked at them strangely. Some of them even shook their heads regretfully, thinking that the two of them were crying because they failed the examination.

After crying enough, Guan Tao let go of Jian Ai and asked with a red nose, “Then… are you still leaving?”

Jian Ai smiled and shook her head. “No, I’m not leaving this time!”

“Boohoo…” Guan Tao cried again.

After leaving the examination venue, Guan Tao’s parents saw Guan Tao coming out with red eyes. Their hearts immediately sank. “What’s wrong, Tao Zi? Did you not do well?”

Seeing this, Guan Tao quickly wiped her tears and smiled. “Dad, Mom, I did very well. Don’t worry.”

“Then why are you still crying?” Guan Tao’s father asked with heartache.

Guan Tao smiled and said, “Xiao Ai is back. She suddenly appeared in the examination hall. I was too excited.”

The two adults were enlightened and couldn’t help but smile at each other. So Xiao Ai was back. No wonder.

On the other side, Bai Zhou and Si Yue had been waiting outside the examination hall for a long time. When they saw Jian Ai come out, they quickly surrounded her. “How did you do?”

After all, Jian Ai had little time to revise in the past two years. Bai Zhou had arranged for her to return for the college entrance examination at the last minute.

Jian Ai made an OK gesture with a relaxed expression and said, “It shouldn’t be a big problem.”

After all, even if she did not revise and did not learn the content of Year Three, she had learned it in her previous life. With the bonus points in the file, as long as she performed steadily in the following subjects, it should not be a problem for her to enter Capital University.

“You’re the same. You came back in a hurry just to take the college entrance examination. Your luggage was still in the car when you just got off the plane,” Bai Zhou couldn’t help but complain.

Jian Ai said, “I was almost late. Besides, the college entrance examination is a big deal in my life. I naturally can’t miss it!”

“Sect Master, do you think there’s a need for you to go to university?” Bai Zhou chuckled.

With Jian Ai’s current net worth and the ancient sect members around her, it was more than enough to serve her until her death. Moreover, she could do whatever she wanted in this life and live as she pleased.

When Bai Zhou opened his mouth, Jian Ai knew what he was thinking.

She rolled her eyes at him mercilessly and snorted. “How vulgar!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai turned around and left, leaving Bai Zhou staring at her.

Bai Zhou came back to his senses and couldn’t help but look at Si Yue. Unexpectedly, Si Yue parrot imitated Jian Ai and said, “How vulgar!”

Hey!

Bai Zhou blinked. How was he vulgar? He was very patient!

Jian Ai’s return was sudden. Although it was to catch up to the college entrance examination, it was also because after half a year of integration; she had completely absorbed the phoenix blood with Ye Liushang’s help.

The power of blood became easier to cultivate under the effect of the phoenix blood.

Although there were still more than half of the advanced mental cultivation techniques left, Jian Ai no longer needed anyone to take care of her. She could complete her cultivation in the following period.

The first thing she did when she returned to China was to complete the college entrance examination in peace. In her previous letter, she also told Ji Haoyu that she would return to China soon, but she did not tell him the exact time.

In order not to affect others, Guan Tao did not inform the other members of the small team about Jian Ai’s return. It had to be said that she had been holding it in.

After all, she could not help but inform everyone of this good news immediately.

Therefore, when everyone learned that Jian Ai had returned to China and taken the college entrance examination, it was three days later!

Xia Qinghuan, Lin Yi, Gao Yang, and Yan Tian all sent congratulatory messages.

Xia Qinghuan: “You wretched girl, you still know how to come back. Do you know how I survived while you were not around?!”

Lin Yi: “Are you still going to Capital University? I filled that in as my first choice.”

Gao Yang: “Guan Tao called me while crying. She couldn’t say it clearly. After you’re done with what you’re doing, we should get together.”

Yan Tian: “After you left, life was too boring. I finally got you back.”

Everyone’s tone was the same as before, making Jian Ai have the illusion that she had never left.

Jian Ai missed her friends, but she had to postpone their gathering for a few days because there were more important things and people she missed.

At the Ji Group, Ji Haoyu was holding a shareholders’ meeting in the conference room when his phone rang.

Two words that he had not seen for a long time appeared on the screen. Ji Haoyu was stunned for a moment before joy filled his face. Ignoring the dozens of people sitting in the conference room, he picked up the call. “Xiao Ai, you’re back!”

In the past two years, there had never been a call. Therefore, when the caller ID showed Xiao Ai, Ji Haoyu knew she was back.

She was finally willing to come back.

Jian Ai’s heart stopped when she heard the voice from the phone. Her throat felt dry, and she inexplicably wanted to cry.

“Ji Haoyu, I’m back,” Jian Ai said slowly.

A huge joy bloomed on Ji Haoyu’s face and wrapped around his entire body. Everyone in the conference room looked at each other, not knowing what was wrong with the CEO.

“Are you at the airport? I’ll pick you up immediately!” Ji Haoyu couldn’t wait. He stood up, picked up his coat, and walked out. He wanted to see Jian Ai immediately.

“I’m downstairs at your company,” Jian Ai said.
