Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School Novel - Chapter 1309

1309 The Lively Jian Family

Yang Jie was not exaggerating. Chinese martial arts differed from Taekwondo, karate, and so on. Because of its long history, there were many things to pay attention to.

For someone like Lin Yi and Gao Yang, who had learned for half a year, Yang Jie felt they had yet to learn the basics, let alone the students from the other martial arts schools who had suddenly started learning a month or two ago.

At that time, they would probably make a fool of themselves at the competition. With such an uneven martial arts foundation, outsiders would probably laugh at them.

“Master, have the candidates been decided?” Li Mobai asked curiously.

!!
Coincidentally, only Jian Ai, the other new disciples, and Li Mobai were present. These people were also the ones Jian Ai suggested to represent the martial arts school in the competition. After all, Yu Yue, Qi Wei, and the rest were going to take the college entrance examination next year. It was not good to be distracted.

Yang Jie nodded. “The number of people in the martial arts school is limited. If we want to sign up for the competition, you’re the only ones we can choose. Fortunately, Mobai is leading the team, and Si Yue has a foundation. Xiao Ai has also improved a lot these days. On the other hand, Lin Yi and Gao Yang, I heard from your Eldest Senior Brother that you recently underwent Si Yue’s training and made a huge breakthrough? I went to the capital a while ago and haven’t seen it yet. When the New Year’s holiday ends, show me a thing or two and let me see the results.”

“Yes, Master!” Lin Yi and Gao Yang agreed.

After chatting with Yang Jie for a while, Jian Ai and the rest left the martial arts school.

“Senior Brother Mobai, you’ve practiced martial arts for so many years. Have you taken part in any martial arts competition?” Jian Ai looked at Li Mobai and asked on the way.

Li Mobai smiled and nodded when he heard that. “Of course I’ve participated, but this is the first time I’ve seen a competition like this organized by the country. Many years ago, Chinese martial arts had not fallen to such a state. There were quite a few competitions. At that time, if the martial arts school wanted to make a name for itself, there were only two paths: challenges or competitions. After all, there was no news in the past.”

Jian Ai and the rest nodded in understanding. At this moment, Li Mobai looked at his junior brothers and sister and said, “Don’t be nervous. There’s no need to feel pressured. People who learn Chinese martial arts have complexes. I made many friends because I took part in competitions before.”

“This competition should be the most authoritative and professional in the country. When the time comes, the television will broadcast the entire process. It has always been extremely fair. Everyone, just do your best. The most important thing is to take part.”

“Got it, Senior Brother!” Everyone said.

…

At the Jian family.

This morning, Jian Changsheng was still working in the study on New Year’s Day. Qiao Shuyi came to the study after putting on her makeup. Seeing that the door was ajar, she gently knocked and poked her head in. “Changsheng, pack up. We’re about to set off.”

Jian Changsheng looked up at Qiao Shuyi and nodded with a smile. “I understand. Is Yiyi up?”

“I’ll call her now. Prepare yourself first. Don’t forget what you bought for Dad and Mom. Take it to the car first,” Qiao Shuyi said.

Jian Changsheng: “Alright, I understand.”

Jian Changsheng’s family naturally had to go to the Jian residence for New Year’s Day. Although there was some estrangement between Jian Changsheng and Old Master Jian because of the company this year, they were still father and son. The old lady and Qiao Shuyi were stuck in the middle. Although that matter was unpleasant, everyone tacitly stopped mentioning it.

Especially after Jian Yichen moved to the Jian residence, with his grandson around, he could more or less take away a lot of the old man’s energy.

After Jian Yiyi wrapped up filming, she immediately relaxed. Life in the production team was day and night, and sleeping soundly was an extravagant hope. Now that the filming was finally over, she lay on the bed most of the day.

Qiao Shuyi’s heart ached for her daughter. Even when she had to go to school, she would let Jian Yiyi sleep until the last moment before waking her up.

She knocked on the door and thought that her daughter was not awake. Unexpectedly, the door was pulled open. Jian Yiyi called out sleepily, “Mom.”

“You’re awake, Yiyi. I was about to call you,” Qiao Shuyi said.

Jian Yiyi: “They were setting off fireworks outside just now and woke me up. Are we leaving?”

Qiao Shuyi nodded. “Yes, quickly wash up and change your clothes. Dad and Mom will wait for you downstairs.”

Jian Yiyi made an OK gesture and turned around to close the door.

An hour later, the family arrived at the Jian residence.

Not only was Jian Changsheng’s family coming back on New Year’s Day, but Jian Changsheng’s brother, Jian Changyuan’s family, was also there.

Old Master Jian had two sons and a daughter. His daughter was the eldest. She still had to return to her in-laws’ house with her husband on such an important holiday.

“Brother and Sister-in-law are here!”

The person who opened the door was Jian Changyuan. When he saw Jian Changsheng’s family, he smiled.

“Uncle!” Jian Yiyi called out.

Jian Changyuan only had one son and doted on Jian Yiyi since she was young. The smile on his face deepened. “Yiyi is prettier again. I heard from your grandfather that you filmed a movie?”

Jian Yiyi was smug and smiled calmly. “I just did that for fun. Uncle, remember to watch it when the time comes.”

“Of course!” Jian Changyuan said.

When they were changing their shoes, Jian Changsheng looked at Jian Changyuan and asked, “How’s Dad’s mood today?”

“Don’t worry, he’s quite good. With Yichen and Tongtong around, how can he not be happy?” Jian Changyuan said.

Jian Changyuan was only a year younger than Jian Changsheng. The two of them didn’t look alike. One wouldn’t be able to tell that they were biological brothers.

Jian Changsheng looked like the old man when he was young, so the old man valued him since he was young. Jian Changyuan looked more like the old lady.

The two brothers had a grudge in the past. When the old man gave the company to Jian Changsheng, Jian Changyuan naturally couldn’t accept it.

Because they were both sons, Jian Changyuan knew he was not bad, but he knew that the old man had favored his brother since he was young.

Fortunately, Jian Changsheng took out a lot of money for Jian Changyuan to start a business. Jian Changyuan was also hardworking. In just a few years, he had achieved a lot. Now, it is the brother company of the Jian Group. The two companies worked together for many years and formed a win-win model.

It was also because of this that the brothers’ relationship became better.

Jian Changsheng nodded. Ever since that incident, Jian Changsheng had come back less often. He was afraid that his father would be unhappy to see him. After all, he had been too harsh with his words.

When they entered the house, the others were sitting in the living room. The house immediately became lively.

After greeting each other, the old man didn’t react. Instead, he was the first to call Jian Yiyi, “Yiyi, come to Grandpa and let Grandpa see if you’ve lost weight recently.”

Jian Yiyi obediently leaned over and held the old man’s arm intimately. “Grandpa, take a good look and see if I’ve lost weight?”

The old man was like a child. He widened his eyes and sized her up from top to bottom. Then, he laughed. “You don’t look like you’ve lost weight. Tell Grandpa, is the production team hard?”
