CHAPTER 727: CHAPTER 661: I LIKE YOU, FROM THE FIRST SIGHT 2
Jian Dan was very mysterious to her classmates.
Initially, when Jian Dan became their classmate, her basic knowledge was very weak, and she could hardly keep up with the class pace.
Many classmates laughed at her, saying she must have donated a building to the school, which was why she was able to be there with them.
In the face of these doubts, Jian Dan did not admit defeat but clenched her teeth and caught up. Others studied for two hours; she studied for six. She believed that by exerting twice the effort of others, she could indeed stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
From the initial inferiority complex to the confidence she found after breaking out.
The classmates watched this little girl change little by little; the students in the school were young and had the purest goodwill towards others.
Even though Jian Dan was not outstanding at first, her endurance was absolutely admirable.
Finally, one year later, Jian Dan finished as the top student in her class.
Although Jian Dan was somewhat aloof, she did make good friends, who were curious about where she had lived before and why she had transferred schools.
The atmosphere and standards of the school were well-known; frankly, with Jian Dan’s initial grades, she couldn’t have been admitted at all.
Unless she really had donated a building.
As a special admission.
Jian Dan did not interact much with people at first and was aloof, but after studying helped her regain confidence, she started to mingle with her classmates.
It was the third time her friend asked when she finally answered, "My uncle supports my schooling; my parents have passed away, and he is the only family I have left in this world."
Wuxin mentioned Jian Dan’s sorrow, and her friends felt sorry; they all walked out of the school together, where the avenue outside was crowded with various luxury cars, there to pick up children from school.
After parting from her classmates, Jian Dan quickly found the car arranged by Bo Qin and hurried into it. "Uncle Bo, thank you for your trouble."
Uncle Bo had been an old servant of the Bo Family, brought in by Bo Qin to personally drive Jian Dan to and from school. Everything for her was meticulously arranged by Bo Qin; the only downside was that she rarely had the chance to see him.
Perhaps because Bo Qin was so good to her, she felt an unexpected closeness to him.
"Miss Jian, please do not say such things."
"Uncle Bo, don’t call me Miss Jian, I’m not any miss. Just call me Little Jian Dan, that’s what my dad used to call me."
Knowing her good nature, Uncle Bo didn’t deny it. "Alright, from now on I’ll call you Little Jian Dan. You don’t need to be so formal with me, driving you to and from school is my job; no need for thanks."
"Who says so? Driving me to and from school is quite hard, Uncle Bo, don’t belittle yourself."
Uncle Bo laughed, repeatedly saying "Alright, alright, alright."
Jian Dan didn’t know that a few people saw her getting into the car, and at that moment, those classmates were huddled together. "Hey, what do you think about this transfer student? She hardly talks, but she’s picked up by luxury cars every day. Whose daughter could she be?"
"I haven’t heard of any, do we have any prominent families with the surname Jian in our city? I can’t think of any."
"It seems there aren’t any who are called Jian. Maybe she’s being kept by someone?"
"That’s a filthy thought! She’s so young. I suspect she might be someone’s illegitimate daughter on the side, not very plausible, but I think it’s highly likely."
"Hmm, makes sense."
Of course, Jian Dan didn’t know she was being talked about like this. She felt uneasy in the car, embarrassed and uneasy about the question she was about to ask, "Uncle Bo, has Uncle Qin gone on a business trip?"
If Jian Dan hadn’t mentioned it, Uncle Bo would have completely forgotten. He slapped his forehead, "Oh, look at my memory. The Eldest Young Master went on a business trip yesterday; he particularly instructed me to stay close and take care of you, Little Jian Dan."
Jian Dan looked down, "Uncle Bo, when will Uncle Qin be back?"
"Not sure about the time; lately, he’s been extremely busy, spinning like a top, non-stop. I worry that it’s too much for his health, but he’s not the type to be easily swayed by others.
Little Jian Dan, let me tell you, if Uncle Qin still listens to you, then you should really advise him not to keep himself so busy. He’s so busy that he has no time to eat, and it’s running him down."
Jian Dan just nodded, not knowing what else to say.
After dropping her off at home, Uncle Bo left under the care of a nanny, his responsibilities generally being to chauffeur her and pass on messages.
