Xu Haozhe grinned as he walked over.
Meeting eyes with him, Yun Jian replied with an equally polite smile, “Mn, I’m here to look for my brother.”
There was a beat of pause before she asked, “Where’s my brother?”
Yun Jian was a firm believer that Yun Yi was definitely together with Xu Haozhe.
“Yi went to the washroom. I’m waiting for him here. The competition’s about to start later,” Xu Haozhe told Yun Jian briefly.
“Mn.” Yun Jian nodded.
Xu Haozhe was Xu Zetian’s son and the latter was currently managing Falcon Hall on behalf of Yun Jian. Previously, Xu Zetian passed Falcon Hall to Duan Lei’s attention after he had gotten seriously injured.
Thinking about that, Yun Jian asked Xu Haozhe again, “How’s the recovery of your father’s injury?”
The fact that Yun Yi’s younger sister knew about his father’s severe gunshot wound surprised Xu Haozhe. He was Xu Zetian’s biological son and knew that his father’s Dragon Head Gang was already taken over by a woman named Slaying Luo and was renamed to Falcon Hall, but he had never heard Xu Zetian mentioning who the current boss of Falcon Hall was.
It was further impossible that Xu Haozhe would know that Yun Jian was Falcon Hall’s current boss since Xu Zetian did not reveal anything to his son.
Hence, when he heard Yun Jian asking about his father’s condition, he was stunned for a long moment. Despite that, he nodded blearily. “Mn, dad is doing much better. He’s almost recovering fully now…”
Given how stunned Xu Haozhe was, Ning Lanlan and others were even more so. Which teenage girl would ask about the condition of a familiar friend’s father when she met said friend? It went without saying that Yun Jian’s action was basically raising eyebrows.
Nonetheless, the girl did not care about it. Instead, she pointed at Ning Lanlan to introduce her to Xu Haozhe. “She’s my friend, Ning Lanlan.”
Then, the group of teenagers got to know each other—even though the fact that Yun Jian asked about the injury of Xu Haozhe’s father remained in the mind of Ning Lanlan and even Xiao Zhiming and Shan Zihao.
Shan Zihao nearly asked about it aloud. Why would Yun Jian be asking about someone’s father in concern? He held it back ultimately. His first impression of Yun Jian was great but he could not help being skeptical at what he heard just now. Did Yun Jian have an affair with Xu Haozhe’s father?
That was all Shan Zihao could think about when a voice Yun Jian was familiar with rang. “Xiao Jian?”
When they realized it, Yun Yi was already walking over from the washroom.
“Ge.” Yun Jian beamed and introduced him to Ning Lanlan and others.
It was after the group got acquainted with each other that they strolled to the center of the competition venue.
Yun Jian could not help whispering to Yun Yi when she saw him, that Qing You was coming back soon. Once the latter heard that, there was a sparkle flashing in his deep eyes. He was ecstatic.
Qing You had been home spending time with her family all this while, so Yun Yi was thrilled since it was rare that she was making her way back.
“Yi, my parents are coming to cheer for me.” Xu Haozhe who went away to answer a call walked back in excitement.
To someone who was about to enter a competition, there was no doubt that the company of their family would be the greatest joy to have.
Shan Zihao’s eyes darted to Yun Jian once he heard that Xu Haozhe’s parents were coming. He had thought that Yun Jian might have an affair with the guy’s father since it did not sound quite reasonable for a young lady to be asking if someone’s father was doing fine.
However, Yun Jian looked nonchalant at the news, so that confused Shan Zihao as he could not figure her out.
