Chapter 256: Return Trip
Beside him was Jian Yichen, whom Jian Ai had seen twice in a day.
Jian Changsheng naturally saw Jian Ai.
Even though Jian Ai was wearing a lady’s suit today, Jian Changsheng recognized her at a glance. She was the girl from the land auction.
A look of shock flashed across his face. When he saw Bai Zhou beside Jian Ai, he understood.
The two of them brushed shoulders and missed each other without looking at each other. Since they had no interaction, they naturally did not stop to chat. On the other hand, Jian Yichen did not forget to turn around and look at Jian Ai after they passed each other by.
Jian Ai smiled at him. Her beautiful face shone under the sun.
“The world is so small.” Bai Zhou naturally saw Jian Changsheng as well. He couldn’t help but smile and sigh.
As the CEO of the Jian Group, he actually celebrates the First of May holiday and comes to Macau like them and even stays in the same hotel.
“It seems that we didn’t leave a friendly impression on him,” Jian Ai said slowly.
The moment Jian Changsheng saw them, it was obvious he had recognized them. However, he didn’t greet them.
Bai Zhou naturally understood what Jian Ai meant. He couldn’t help but purse his lips. “East Sea Real Estate is a small company with a registered capital of only a million yuan. Why wouldn’t it catch the eyes of the CEO of the Jian Group? Moreover, during our first encounter with them, we snatched two pieces of land the Jian Group wanted. Our company already made enemies before its foundation was stabilized. The enemy is the Jian Group, which is the most powerful in the real estate industry in Baiyun City.”
Jian Ai only chuckled. “Even so, I’m afraid the other party doesn’t take us seriously.”
The Jian Group was the unshakeable leader of the real estate industry in Baiyun City, so Jian Ai’s company naturally would not cause any substantial impact on them just because of two pieces of land.
Just as Jian Ai had said, in Jian Changsheng’s heart, although this East Sea Real Estate that suddenly appeared from nowhere seems to amaze everyone, it was still nothing to the deeply-rooted Jian Group, let alone be feared.
…
Because she knew nothing about casinos before, Jian Ai planned to keep a low profile. She would win some every day and go to a few different casinos. When she leaves Macau and heads home, she will probably be able to achieve her goal.
However, she did not expect that in less than three hours on the first day, she had already completed her ‘mission.’ If she wanted to continue to win, she could naturally do it. However, Jian Ai had no intention of stepping into a casino again.
In the next few days, Jian Ai brought Jiachi around Macau. Three days later, they ended their First of May holiday early and took a plane back to China.
When she reached home, the house was empty. Jian Ai simply unpacked her luggage and went out to the hospital.
After arriving at the hospital, Jian Ai was not in a hurry to see Wang Yunmei. Instead, she went to Xiao Zhen’s office.
“Sect Master, have some water.”
In the room, Xiao Zhen was wearing a white coat. If not for the poker face on his face that never changed, he would have looked like a white-robed angel.
“Thank you,” Jian Ai said softly. Then, she looked at Xiao Zhen and asked, “How long will it take for my mother to recover?”
“The shortest will be three to five months. The longest will be a year. We still have to see how she absorbs the medicine,” Xiao Zhen said truthfully.
Jian Ai nodded and asked, “Does she have to stay in the hospital during this period of time?”
“There’s no need for that. If the Sect Master wants her mother discharged so they could go home, I can arrange it,” said Xiao Zhen indifferently.
Jian Ai said, “Will it affect the treatment?”
Xiao Zhen shook his head gently. “I’ll be the one prescribing the medicine for the later stages of the treatment. I can still do it even if I’m not in the hospital. However, the soonest will be at least half a month before she can be discharged.”
“Okay!” Jian Ai took a deep breath and smiled at Xiao Zhen. “I don’t want my mother to stay in the hospital for a long time. If it’s not necessary, let her go home when she can be discharged!”
