Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School Novel - Chapter 453

Chapter 453: Not Funding, But Lending!

Jian Ai stared at Yang Jie’s eyes and observed his every move.

His eyes flickered a few times before calming down.

Seeing this, Jian Ai knew her words did not provoke him, let alone convince him.

As expected, Yang Jie revealed a relieved smile and said faintly, “I can feel your sincerity, but I’m not even willing to accept the funding of my disciples. How can I accept yours?”

Jian Ai smiled. “It’s not funding, but lending!”

Her words finally cause Yang Jie to have an obvious reaction on his face.

Jian Ai knew that most martial arts practitioners were noble. A blatant funding would cause a rebound in the other party’s self-esteem. However, lending money had another meaning.

Although his status would be lowered as well, it was much easier to accept than taking the money directly.

Jian Ai continued, “We’ll pay the rent for the next year. Master Yang only needs to care about management and teaching. If the martial arts school business doesn’t improve in a year, Master Yang will have to return the rent to me within three years.”

“If we include interest, this means we don’t have to pay our school fees.”

To put it bluntly, this was Jian Ai’s temporary solution. Her idea then was very simple, and it was not as noble as helping Longxing Martial Arts School revive. She only wanted to practice martial arts here and help her break through her cultivation bottleneck as soon as possible. After all, in the entire Baiyun City, this was the only traditional Chinese martial arts school.

That was all.

She could not possibly go to a Taekwondo school to practice martial arts. Although she could strengthen her body, the core of her cultivation was different from her mental cultivation techniques. It was useless.

A hundred thousand yuan rent was just a small sum to Jian Ai.

Yang Jie’s heart thumped, as if he was weighing Jian Ai’s words.

She had lent him a hundred thousand yuan for rental, but it also indirectly gave him a chance to work hard for a year. If they could revive the martial arts school, his efforts would not be in vain.

However, if the martial arts school did not improve, he would return the money borrowed to her in three years. In the end, he owed this girl a favor for giving him timely help, but he did not take advantage of her.

With this thought in mind, Yang Jie felt much better.

“Then let’s make a written statement,” Yang Jie said.

Li Mobai, who was worried, immediately smiled in relief. He was afraid that his master would refuse again and destroy the martial arts school’s last chance.

Jian Ai nodded.

In the guest room in the main hall, there were pure wooden sofas and tables. Jian Ai and the rest sat in a row. Li Mobai brewed a pot of fragrant tea and served it.

“My name is Li Mobai. From now on, when you enter the martial arts school, we will be fellow disciples. You can call me Second Senior Brother,” Li Mobai said softly, having already let down his guard against them.

Jian Ai smiled at Li Mobai and nodded. “Thank you, Second Senior Brother.”

At this moment, Yang Jie came out of the room after writing the statement. Jian Ai took it and saw that Yang Jie’s seal was printed on it. This style was indeed from the previous era.

Picking up the fountain pen, Jian Ai jotted down her name. This ‘IOU’ was effective.

“The school’s final examinations are taking place soon, so the other disciples won’t be coming before the summer break. You’re the same. You can come after the examination.”

Yang Jie looked at Jian Ai and Si Yuehan.

Jian Ai nodded and looked at Yang Jie’s leg.
