Chapter 146
Up until today, she still remembered how her fingers got thick calluses from rubbing against the ground, totally different from how soft her hands were now.
Jaylene nodded, “There was a piano at school, maybe we could borrow it from the school to practice.”
Alarieka smiled, “You were really thoughtful.”
She turned her head and just saw the bus she was on pass by a bookstore.
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and the idea that had come to her before flashed through her mind.
Alarieka immediately grabbed Jaylene’s hand: “We’ll get off at the next stop.”
Jaylene was confused: “Why? There’s still half an hour before we get home. Do you need something?”
Alarieka said mysteriously, “Anyway, you just get off the car with me.
In the bookstore, Alarieka leaned against the wall, eyes on the book, but didn’t really read it.
She was thinking about how to let Jaylene naturally notice the programming books placed to the side.
Wouldn’t it have been a bit too obvious if I just put the book right in front of Jaylene and let her read it?

In front of her, Jaylene looked at the books on the shelf, bored out of her mind. She was basically not interested. If something did catch her eye, she just picked it up, glanced at it, and put it back quickly.
Alarieka couldn’t just sit there and wait to die.
She pretended to stand up naturally, like she just happened to walk by, casually picked up a programming book, and casually took a look.
She said eh at just the right time.
Jaylene looked over: “What’s up?”
Alarieka pointed at the basic programming in the book and laughed, “I want to study computer science later. What do you think?”
She really wanted to study computer science.
The time between when she died before and this life was about seven or eight years.
Others didn’t know, but she did.
In the future, computers, the internet, and AI became the main industries in society, leading to lots of new internet businesses. Those bosses who caught the trend and started companies made a ton of
money.
She was reborn once, so of course she wanted a piece of the pie.
Alarieka thought Jaylene would be interested in the book, but she just glanced at it and then pouted, “So boring, it’s all numbers and letters, just looking at it gives me a headache.”
Alarieka’s face froze for a second, then she smiled, “Really?”

softly, “If you want to read, just read. I won’t read anymore after this.”
Actually, Alaricka wasn’t surprised when she said this to Jaylene.
Lorelai got really sick. She didn’t have any savings for treatment. Plus, Jaylene’s grades were bad and she couldn’t even get into college. Anyone who saw this might have thought Jaylene wouldn’t have a future.
Jaylene thought so too, otherwise she wouldn’t have decided to set up a street stall.
I’m afraid Jaylene had already decided to set up a street stall from then
Alarieka didn’t force it. After shoving the book back on the shelf, she grabbed Jaylene’s wrist and headed out.
“Go back, check on Lorelai first.”
Jaylene still had a lot on her mind, so she really couldn’t think about anything else.
Alarieka understood, but she wasn’t going to just let Jaylene keep drifting like that.
It wasn’t for Jaylene’s talent, it was because back when she was broke, only Jaylene helped her.
Even if Alarieka tried to stay away from Kieran and Roschelle, she still couldn’t avoid coincidences.
During this time, Alarjeka signed up at a piano practice room. After class or whenever she had time, she would come here to practice piano. The rest of the time, if she was free, she would go with Jaylene to set up a stall and sell barbecue.
