In front of a large crowd, An Nuonuo naturally couldn't agree to Jiang Xu's request.
After giving Jiang Xu a white-eyed look that was highly lethal and quite capable of teasing one's heart.
She rode away on her bicycle first.
Jiang Xu grinned and followed her.
When he got home, Jiang Xu received a phone call from problem girl Jiang Xiaoyan.
It was that same contrived, sweet and greasy twee voice again.
Jiang Xu got goosebumps all over.
"Gaigai, have you had dinner, do you miss me, what are you doing?
Jiang Xu replied, "Haven't eaten yet, no, I'm on the phone with a little...something."
"Humph." Jiang Xiaoyan pouted, "So mean, always bullying me."
Jiang Xu: "..."
He was beginning to falter.
Luckily she wasn't around.
Otherwise, he would certainly have beaten her up.
Jiang Xu became speechless, "Did you call just to make me sick? If you have nothing to do, hang up."
Jiang Xiaoyan: "Oh, why are you so heartless?
Shouldn't you at least be happy when someone takes the initiative to contact you? Stinky man.
I have some good news for you. I've gotten my hands on those two residential buildings.
I plan on keeping them for collecting rent,
Which amounts to about two to three million a year.
Start praising me. I'll support you in the future, you know."
Jiang Xu chuckled coldly.
What's so great about this?
I am about to own a residential building myself.
So there's absolutely no need for envy.
Jiang Xiaoyan continued, "I'll be back in a couple of days.
If you want any gifts, let me know and I'll buy them for you."
Jiang Xu: "Give me a ton of gold, thank you."
Jiang Xiaoyan: "Hello, the signal here is bad, oh, I'll hang up first."
The sound of beeping filled his ear.
Jiang Xu smirked.
After finishing his meal and taking a bath, Jiang Xu continued writing.
Actually, with the current storage of novels on the Nuomi Website,
Going online is doable.
But if the foundation isn't solid enough, there could be many problems later on.
Like what is often noted in fantasy novels,
If the basics are lacking, forcefully breaking through can make it difficult to strive for higher realms in the future.
After some thought, he decided against this plan.
After waking up the next morning, Jiang Xu made up his mind.
In order to fend off any potential issues, he decided to use the few houses his family owned as collateral.
It should be enough.
And, his parents were currently vacationing, so it was the perfect opportunity.
After freshening up, Jiang Xu didn't even bother eating breakfast.
He just put on casual clothes,
Packed up his three property deeds, bank cards, ID, and household registration,
And went to his family restaurant.
The restaurant hadn't opened yet at this time.
An Nuonuo unlocked the door, went upstairs to his parent's bedroom.
After rummaging around,
She found two property deeds and two hundred thousand in cash.
To ensure it was sufficient, he took the cash as well.
At the same time, Jiang Shan and Chen Yue, who were watching the sunrise by the beach, simultaneously sneezed.
The couple glanced at each other, saying in unison, "Weird, why do we have a bad feeling all of a sudden?"
Jiang Xu called his class teacher again to ask for half-day leave.
The class teacher didn't agree easily this time.
"Jiang Xu, you're one of the best students in our class.
Focus your energy on studies."
He was worried about Jiang Xu getting off track.
Jiang Xu laughed, "I understand, Teacher. It's just that I've been staying up late studying recently.
Because I want to strive for top score in the entire province's college entrance examination."
He wasn't lying to the class teacher when he said this,
Jiang Xu really intended to do so,
This was what he came up with after giving it a lot of thought.
It was the most effective, and also something he had a high chance of achieving at the moment.
If he could become the province's top scorer in the college entrance examination,
it would be equivalent to granting himself a powerful protection.
At that time,
Zhang Xiaohui would need to consider the cost if she wanted to deal with him.
Upon hearing these words, the class teacher immediately agreed without saying another word.
If Jiang Xu truly succeeded,
he, as the class teacher, would inevitably get a promotion and a raise, marry a rich and beautiful woman, and reach the peak of his life.
Looking at the time, it was seven o'clock, so he randomly found a breakfast shop.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Xu's gaze sharpened.
He saw Fu Yanjie.
However, Fu Yanjie didn't notice Jiang Xu at this moment.
He was busy showering attentions on a trendy-looking girl wearing jeans and black stockings.
The girl, with wavy long hair, looked a few years older than Fu Yanjie.
She had heavy makeup on her face and spoke in a coquettish voice.
"Sister Jingjing, thank you for treating me to breakfast."
The girl, addressed as Jingjing, cooed, "What are you thanking me for?
You have treated me to meals and given me gifts. It's what I should do."
Fu Yanjie laughed foolishly, feeling warm inside.
"I've finished eating." Jingjing covered her mouth and got up to pay.
Then, she sighed.
Fu Yanjie quickly asked, "Sister Jingjing, what's wrong?"
Jingjing hesitated to speak.
Then she shook her head, "Never mind, it's nothing, even if I tell you, you can't help me."
"Sister Jingjing, you underestimate me!" Fu Yanjie patted his chest:
"I am known as the small overlord of Jiang City, there's nothing I can't do!"
Jiang Xu felt embarrassed for him after hearing this.
He was bragging in such a stiff and awkward manner.
However, Jingjing just giggled.
Admiration filled her face: "You're so amazing! It's my honor to know you."
Fu Yanjie was overjoyed.
Jiang Xu shook his head slightly, realizing that Fu Yanjie had been tricked.
This woman's tactics were not particularly clever in his view.
But they were more than enough to deal with an innocent young man like Fu Yanjie.
After persistent questioning from Fu Yanjie, Jingjing eventually revealed her 'troubles'.
"Ah, as you know, I haven't been to university.
I want to enroll in a nail art course recently.
But the tuition fee is quite high, I'm still short of 25000.
It seems I'll have to live frugally for a long time before I can save enough money."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yanjie immediately said, "I thought it was a big problem.
So, it's just about money. I'll give it to you."
Jingjing 'seemed surprised'.
She hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, no, it's my own matter.
How can I take your money? I will feel guilty."
Fu Yanjie became anxious: "Don't you consider me as a friend?
Friends are supposed to help each other, aren't they?"
"Indeed, but..." Jingjing hesitated.
"Stop hesitating, let's settle it like this." Fu Yanjie spoke confidently:
"Sister Jingjing, come on, let's go and draw out the money."
Jingjing was deeply touched: "Thank you, I will definitely repay this money."
Fu Yanjie: "Sister Jingjing, that's like looking down on me.
A mere twenty thousand or so, if I let you return it, how am I supposed to get by in this area?"
Then came Jingjing's laughter, which sounded like silver bells.
Jiang Xu couldn't help rubbing his forehead.
This silly boy, he didn't even realize he was being tricked.
Forget it, just let him be for now.
After finishing his breakfast, Jiang Xu went to the bank.
