From Sidekick to Bigshot

However, Jian Yiling didn’t ask Cheng Yi to escort her home. She acted as if nothing had happened and waited until Grandma Jian’s car arrived at the gates of Shenghua High School. When the car arrived, she quietly boarded the car.

At this time, all the flowers, balloons, and banners had been cleaned up under Luo Xiuen’s orders.

Everything appeared to be as usual.

Jian Yiling didn’t want Grandma Jian to learn about the events that had just occurred.

As a result, Grandma Jian didn’t sense anything fishy about Jian Yiling.

When the car arrived at the gate of the Old Jian Residence, Jian Yujie was already there.

He panted and gasped for breath. It appeared as though he was in a rush.

Hurriedly, Grandma Jian asked the chauffeur to stop the car. She opened the door and got off the car before asking:

“Yujie, what’s wrong? Why did you come over all of a sudden?”

Today was Tuesday. Jian Yujie should be at school.

“I asked the chauffeur to bring me over,” Jian Yujie replied. Whilst he answered Grandma Jian’s question, his eyes were focused on Jian Yiling.

Jian Yujie had heard about what had just happened at Shenghua High School from Yu Xi. Yu Xi had sent him a message.

Originally, Yu Xi had thought that Yiling had been targeted by a delinquent. He thought that he needed to let Jian Yujie know about the situation.

If he had kept quiet about it, he was afraid that he’d lose credibility in front of Jian Yujie.

However, Yu Xi didn’t expect that immediately after he had finished texting the message to Jian Yujie, Zhai Yunsheng had gotten up and walked out of the room. He hadn’t expected Master Sheng to personally deal with the matter.

As soon as Jian Yujie received the message from Yu Xi, he wanted to rush over right away.

However, at the time, his classes weren’t over yet.

In the last half an hour of class, Jian Yujie sat restlessly in his seat. It felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles. Every second he waited made him feel incredibly uncomfortable.

He felt furious whenever he thought about a shady guy confessing to his dear cousin!

How old was Yiling?! It was not time for her to be in a relationship!

And even when she reached the age to be in a relationship, she wouldn’t be dating a delinquent!

From one look, he could tell that the delinquent was not an honorable and proper person! People like that had to keep their distance from Yiling!

The moment the bell rang, Jian Yujie bolted out of the classroom.

After he got into the car, Jian Yujie begged the chauffeur to immediately drive him to the Old Jian Residence.

Initially, he wanted to go to Shenghua High School. However, on the way there, he had heard about the situation from Yu Xi. Yu Xi had told him that the matter had been resolved already.

“Is there an important matter?” Grandma Jian asked. She felt that Jian Yujie was in a rush to deal with an urgent issue.

“It’s okay. I’m just giving Jian Yiling something,” Jian Yujie replied. As he spoke, he dragged a large bag out of the car trunk and passed it to Jian Yiling.

Everything in the bag was self-defense items. Jian Yujie had bought them two days ago.

Initially, he had planned to give it to Jian Yiling on the weekend. However, now that an emergency had happened, Jian Yujie decided to give it to her immediately.

When he passed the bag to Jian Yiling, he whispered into her ear, “Most of these are portable items. If you encounter someone shady and dubious, you can teach them a lesson!”

After he finished delivering the items, Jian Yujie quickly waved goodbye to Grandma Jian and Jian Yiling.

He had to hurry home. The Old Jian Residence wasn’t on the way home. He hadn’t gotten his mother’s permission to come and visit either. If his mother found out, she would definitely be upset.

After Jian Yujie left, Jian Yiling opened the ‘self-defense kit’.

Grandma Jian moved closer to get a look as well. She was curious about what her grandson had given her darling.

When she saw a bunch of alarms, self-defense products, and pepper sprays, Grandma Jian couldn’t help but laugh.

“Oh my, what is that kid even thinking about every day?”

Most of these weren’t needed.

Every day, Jian Yiling was picked up and dropped off at school by Grandma Jian. Where would she meet a bad guy?
