From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 525
Chapter 525: Jian Yujie’s Magic Show
His fate had changed. He hadn’t died at the age of nineteen.
Furthermore, he also managed to follow his dreams! He became a real magician!
In the evening, Zhai Yunsheng just came home from work. Jian Yiling immediately rushed over to him and shoved a ticket into his hands.
“Let’s go together!”
Zhai Yunsheng’s heart skipped a beat. Was he dreaming?
Did this little girl actually take the initiative to ask him out?
Zhai Yunsheng never thought that such a scene would happen.
Zhai Yunsheng’s gaze fell on Jian Yiling. A smiling expression was on Jian Yiling’s face. Although the smile was not that obvious, Zhai Yunsheng still caught onto the subtle difference.
It seemed as though she was looking forward to this.
“Are you asking me out on a date?” Zhai Yunsheng asked.
“Huh?” Jian Yiling said as some confusion appeared in her eyes.
“You gave me the tickets because you want to watch the show with me right?”
“Mhmm.”
The smile on Zhai Yunsheng’s face intensified and his gaze burned: “Do you know that if two people go to watch something together, it’s considered as a date?”
Jian Yiling looked at Zhai Yunsheng for a moment. Then, she said: “But, Yu Xi is also going… It’s not the two of us.”
Yu Xi?
He was going as well?
“Did you ask him to go?”
Jian Yiling shook her head: “Brother Yujie invited him.”
Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng finally noticed that something was wrong. He looked down at the ticket in his hand.
Then, he realized that it was a ticket for a magic show.
Ahh, so Jian Yujie had given them the tickets…
It seemed as though Jian Yujie had also given tickets to Yu Xi.
Upon this realization, Zhai Yunsheng’s brain snapped back to reality. He had thought too much into it… She hadn’t taken the initiative to ask him out.
Although Zhai Yunsheng knew that he was overthinking, he still couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
###
On the day of the magic show, Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling headed to the venue together.
When they arrived, they immediately saw Yu Xi. Yu Xi had arrived before them.
He also bought drinks for Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.
Zhai Yunsheng glanced at the seat number on his ticket.
Then, he glanced at Yu Xi’s seat number.
Yu Xi’s seat was Row 1, Seat 7.
However, Zhai Yunsheng’s seat was Row 1, Seat 6. On the other hand, Jian Yiling’s seat was Row 1, Seat 8.
“Get up,” Zhai Yunsheng said to Yu Xi.
Yu Xi paused before he looked at Zhai Yunsheng with a confused expression on his face. “Huh? Why?”
“I told you to get up.”
And thus, Yu Xi stood up in a daze.
Then, Zhai Yunsheng sat down on Yu Xi’s seat.
Following this, Zhai Yunsheng gave Yu Xi his ticket.
Yu Xi took Zhai Yunsheng’s ticket and sat down in Seat 6.
Yu Xi muttered to himself that Zhai Yunsheng was stealing his spot. His previous spot was closer to the middle of the stage!
Not after long, the performance began. Jian Yujie appeared on the stage.
He was confident and dazzling.
Three years had passed. Jian Yujie had lost the immature look that he had at the age of 17.
He began to look more masculine. In fact, he grew a little taller as well.
Jian Yujie’s performance today involved cutting up a human body, making a human appear out of thin air, and also a few other tricks that he had designed by himself.
And thus, there was one performance after another.
From time to time, thunderous applause came from the audience.
At the end of the entire performance, Jian Yujie gave his speech of thanks.
Other than thanking the audience for being there and thanking his master, Jian Yujie also gave a special thanks to Jian Yiling:
“I want to thank one person in particular. That person is my sister. If it wasn’t for her, I would not have had the opportunity to become a magician. In addition, I might have even lost hope for the future. She was the one who gave me light and warmth. She was the one who gave me the courage to walk forward. Finally, she was the one who gave me so much support on this path.”
As he spoke, Jian Yujie’s gaze fell on Jian Yiling who was seated in the first row.
His gaze was soft and warm.
