Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School Novel - Chapter 1360
1360 Unexpected Agitation
The group of them entered the hotpot restaurant. Steam lingered in the room, and the fragrance of beef floated. The lobby on the first floor was almost full. Just as Yan Tian had said, business was booming.
They followed the waiter into the private room on the second floor. After closing the door, Qinghuan took off her scarf. However, she couldn’t help but complain, “You’re like a thief every day. When you come out for a meal, you look like a special agent.”
Everyone couldn’t help but laugh when they heard that. Guan Tao said, “I just want you to familiarize yourself with it in advance. Although you’re famous now, in my opinion, the highlight has to wait until your movie is released.”
“That’s right.” Jian Ai also said, “You’re the supporting actress for the new drama. Although many viewers like you because the character setting is likable, you’re the female lead in the movie. You’re also the national IP. It’ll be a huge hit. When the time comes, I’m afraid people will recognize you even if you wrap yourself up like a mummy.”
!!
Qinghuan couldn’t help but purse her lips when she heard this. However, she knew in her heart that even if she didn’t like this, she couldn’t control others.
“Are you all staying in Baiyun City during the winter break?” Lin Yi suddenly asked. Although he was talking to everyone, his gaze was on Jian Ai.
Without waiting for Jian Ai to speak, Yan Tian said, “I’m going to Grandpa and Grandma’s place in Hailin with Dad and Mom for the new year. I’ll probably be back after the fifteenth.”
“I have an advertisement to film during the winter break. Didn’t I tell you before? However, I should be in Baiyun most of the time,” Qinghuan said.
“I’m not leaving either. I think I’ll stay at home for the entire winter break,” Gao Yang said.
Guan Tao nodded as well. “Me too.”
Everyone looked at Jian Ai after saying that. Jian Ai smiled and said, “I’ll be leaving for a while after the new year.”
This ambiguous sentence was not a lie, but it was not the truth either.
Because Jian Ai was not sure how long she will be gone for, she could not explain to them why she was leaving.
Hearing that Jian Ai was leaving again, they were stunned for a moment before nodding. They seemed to be used to Jian Ai leaving often.
As her friends, everyone present more or less understood that Jian Ai seemed to have an unknown side and was doing something they did not know.
This was also what these people had in common. If Jian Ai didn’t say it, no one would ask.
The atmosphere froze a little, but at this moment, Jian Ai suddenly felt something strange in her body. Almost defenseless, Jian Ai felt an inexplicable uneasiness.
Jian Ai frowned and lowered her head. Before she could capture that abnormality, a fiery restlessness suddenly rose from her body and rushed into Jian Ai’s brain.
It was as if something had struck her brain hard. It suddenly hurt. Vaguely, Jian Ai seemed to feel an evil thought in the agitation, trying to devour her rationality.
It was the power of blood!
She thought to herself, ‘Oh no. The first two awakenings of the power of blood were because of the stimulation from the outside world that I lost control. However, this time, it suddenly became agitated without warning and stimulation.’
Jian Ai knew she could not control the power of blood, but she could not suppress the abnormality in her body.
Sensing that something was wrong with Jian Ai, they quickly asked with concern, “Jian Ai, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”
“I’m not feeling well. I’m going to the bathroom!”
Jian Ai lowered her head and said this. She quickly stood up and fled the private room.
She rushed all the way to the bathroom. Fortunately, there was no one else inside. Jian Ai locked the door after entering.
At this moment, the mania in her body became stronger, and her body heated up. Jian Ai rushed to the mirror and looked up. She was shocked by her reflection in the mirror.
It was a pair of scarlet eyes that had no warmth or fluctuation. Those bright pupils looked like they were about to bleed.
“Xiao Ai, are you inside?”
“Xiao Ai, are you okay? Open the door!”
Xia Qinghuan and Guan Tao’s voices came from outside the bathroom. The feeling of losing control and the call of her friends pulled back and forth in Jian Ai’s head. One wanted to drag her into endless darkness, and the other wanted to pull her back to reality.
However, Jian Ai knew that once she lost consciousness, she could not control what would happen next.
She could not hurt anyone, let alone kill someone by mistake.
Therefore, while she was still a little sober, Jian Ai looked at the marble sink in front of her and gritted her teeth. Jian Ai closed her eyes and bumped into it.
Bang! A clear sound came from inside. Xia Qinghuan and Guan Tao, who were outside the bathroom, were stunned for a moment before coming back to their senses and pounding on the door.
“Xiao Ai! Xiao Ai!”
“Xiao Ai, what’s wrong? Don’t scare us!”
Guan Tao was so anxious that she was about to cry. At this moment, Lin Yi and the rest chased after her. They were stunned when they saw the situation.
Lin Yi was the first to come back to his senses. He quickly said to Yan Tian, “Quickly find the waiter. Something might have happened to Jian Ai inside.”
When Yan Tian heard that, he nodded and quickly turned around to look for someone.
Not long after, the manager and the two female waiters rushed over with spare keys. They quickly opened the bathroom door and saw Jian Ai lying motionless on the ground in front of the sink.
“Xiao Ai!”
Guan Tao exclaimed and rushed up with Xia Qinghuan. The two of them picked Jian Ai up but realized that her entire body was burning. A huge blood bump rose on her forehead, and it was bruised.
Lin Yi and the boys didn’t enter the female bathroom. Instead, they called 120.
Without eating, they followed the ambulance to the hospital.
On the way, Gao Yang said, “Which one of you can contact Jian Ai’s family? It’s better to inform them now.”
They looked at each other. Although they were on good terms with Jian Ai, they did not have her family’s contact details, especially since their family had moved out of South City. The courtyard in South City was already empty, and they could not find anyone.
Guan Tao was the most familiar with Jian Ai’s family, but she didn’t have a phone.
At this moment, Xia Qinghuan reacted and said, “I’ll call Brother Jin. He knows Xiao Ai’s brother. He should be able to contact him.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qinghuan took out her phone and dialed Chen Jin’s number.
When they reached the hospital, they pushed the unconscious Jian Ai into the emergency room. The others waited in the hospital corridor. No one left.
Guan Tao trembled in fear. She thought of Jian Ai lying there motionless and couldn’t help but cry.
Gao Yang walked forward and hugged her. He patted her head and said gently, “Don’t be afraid. Jian Ai will be fine.”
“Why did such a thing suddenly happen? Didn’t it look like there was nothing abnormal before?” Yan Tian frowned and whispered.
Xia Qinghuan shook her head. “I don’t know either. This has never happened before.”
Only Lin Yi leaned against the wall and kept staring at the white door of the emergency room.
