Ye Zhiwei lost her chance to test Jiang Jianian.

She could only accompany Ji Shuli to watch their fencing match.

This kind of match, where there's no chance of winning or losing and no suspense whatsoever, is simply not interesting. Ye Zhiwei could imagine just how miserable her two rich cousins, those two idiots, would be next.

Jiang Jianian was just quiet and didn't seem to want to talk to Curly and Little Jin much.

It seemed that the two of them had said something that offended Jiang Jianian, and Ye Zhiwei could vaguely sense that Jiang Jianian's aura was lower than usual.

Even if she wasn't interested, she still had to go and watch. She didn't want the male protagonist, whom she had carefully accompanied and guided towards the right path, to do something she couldn't even imagine because of these people.

Upon arriving at the entertainment club, before entering, Ye Zhiwei deliberately slowed her pace, creating some distance between herself and the people in front of her, before pulling her cousin to her side. "Cousin, what trick are you up to now?"

"You can do your own thing, why are you dragging me and Jiang Jianian into it! Honestly, don't you know we're in our final year of high school? We should be studying, not playing fencing with you!"

Ji Shuli coaxed, "It's not like you're playing during class. School's over now, what's wrong with relaxing and having some sports activities? Your cousin is doing this for your own good."

Ye Zhiwei: ...

"Besides, I invited Jiang Jianian to come and play together, but you, little girl, insisted on coming along," Ji Shuli added.

Ye Zhiwei snorted coldly, "Do I really want to come along? I'm just afraid..."

"Afraid I'll bully your little darling, my sweetheart? Be careful of the powerful ones!"

Ye Zhiwei wanted to stuff a clove of garlic into Ji Shuli's mouth.

If she weren't afraid that Ji Shuli would offend Jiang Jianian, she wouldn't have bothered to come along.

Ye Zhiwei felt resentful that she hadn't been able to get the questions she wanted to ask, and now Ji Shuli had brought two of his cronies along. She had a feeling that her own children were going astray.

In the end, all she could do was tell Ji Shuli to tell his two friends to be careful and not to cause any trouble, otherwise she would never speak to him again!

When his cousin spoke, Ji Shuli dared not disobey and immediately accepted the order to tell the two to take it easy.

Although Ji Shuli knew that Jiang Jianian was formidable, his two friends were famous for fighting and were far more skilled than him. They had even participated in fencing competitions before and achieved very high rankings.

Even though he praised Jiang Jianian's abilities, he didn't really expect Jiang Jianian to do anything to the two of them.

Upon arriving at the fencing hall, the group went to the changing room.

Each locker room has its own private cubicle. Ji Shuli has several private locker rooms, but this time he specially reserved one of his locker rooms for Jiang Jianian.

Ye Zhiwei stayed outside to wait for them to change into their fencing uniforms. Less than five minutes later, her cousin called, saying that the fencing vest was outside and asking Ye Zhiwei to take it.

While complaining about Ji Shuli's carelessness, Ye Zhiwei took her vest and went straight into the men's changing area. Based on her memory, she found the changing room that Ji Shuli usually used and knocked on the door.

When the door opened, Ye Zhiwei realized that Jiang Jianian was actually in the dressing room.

Despite Jiang Jianian's neat attire, Ye Zhiwei was still startled.

She immediately wanted to apologize and run away, but after taking only two steps, she heard her cousin's two cronies talking again. Ye Zhiwei instinctively pushed Jiang Jianian inside and followed him in.

A snap.

She locked the locker room.

Jiang Jianian looked at Ye Zhiwei, who had pushed him against the wall, tightened his grip, his gaze deep, and asked with restraint, "What are you doing here?"

"My cousin asked me to get his clothes, but I went into the wrong changing room! It seems like two of his friends just came by, and I'm afraid of being misunderstood!" Ye Zhiwei immediately let go of his hand and explained, her face flushed.

"They should be out now, I'm leaving right now! Immediately!"

Ye Zhiwei reached for the door with trembling hands, but before she could even open the dressing room door, Jiang Jianian grabbed her hand and pressed her against the door.

“Jiang Jianian…”

Jiang Jianian approached Ye Zhiwei, lowered his head slightly, and whispered in Ye Zhiwei's ear, "Shh, they haven't left yet."
