Jiang Xu silently swallowed, asking tentatively, "So, what time then?"
"We start at eight thirty, shall we go at eight o'clock?"
There was anticipation in An Nuonuo's charming peach blossom eyes.
Jiang Xu: "..."
God, are you playing with me like this?
"Is it inconvenient?" An Nuonuo, seeing Jiang Xu's difficulty, whispered, "It's okay, you can go another time."
"Of course not." Jiang Xu smiled, "I'll come to find you in the evening then."
"Oh, okay."
The girl's mood suddenly brightened.
After class, Jiang Xu sneaked out and sent a message to Jiang Xiaoyan.
Changed the movie time to midnight.
She quickly replied with a question mark.
Jiang Xu: This movie is more interesting to watch in the deep night, and many young men and women watch movies late into the night and then...hehehe, you know.
Not long after he sent it, Jiang Xiaoyan replied, saying that they would go at midnight, with a shy emoji.
Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems, I need to learn how to manage my time.
It's just a pity there's no way.
If only I could meet Master Luo.
In this regard, he is a master.
This small scene would be easily handled by him.
That evening, back home.
Jiang Xiaoyan was still there.
This little girl seems to be sticking around now.
The advantage is there's no need for me to cook dinner.
Little rich girl buys all sorts of delicious meals every day.
300-500 yuan for a meal is normal.
For the sake of food, I'll tolerate it for now.
After bathing, Jiang Xu planned to sneak out.
However, he was still discovered by Jiang Xiaoyan.
She leaned against the door, coldly asking, "Who's the siren you're going to see?"
Jiang Xu kept a straight face, "Just visiting my teacher's house, I'll be back soon...Wait, you're not my girlfriend, why are you concerning yourself?"
Jiang Xu felt the need to establish dominance.
He couldn't let this woman get the better of him.
"Oh, then you go," Jiang Xiaoyan smirked.
But the next second, her expression switched.
Like a cold-blooded Shura.
In her hands, a fruit knife appeared, brandished in front of him.
"If you dare to fool around outside, I'll castrate you."
Jiang Xu could not help but shudder.
This woman was ruthless.
But this kind of behavior was too dangerous. It must be corrected.
Looking at the time, there was still time to spare.
So, he walked toward Jiang Xiaoyan.
Snatched the fruit knife from her hand and tossed it to the ground.
"This is the first, and the last time, you're not allowed to wield a knife in front of me, did you hear?!"
His tone was severe.
The next moment, Jiang Xiaoyan lost it.
"Who do you think you are, you have no right to control me!"
"Slap!"
Jiang Xu struck, slapping her.
The sound was resounding.
Of course, he didn't hit her face...
Jiang Xiaoyan got angry: "You dare to hit me?!"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
As he said this, he hit her with another series of slaps.
If he didn't discipline her for three days, the house rebelled.
He had to let her know where his limit was.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to control this woman in the future.
She was strong.
But compared to Jiang Xu, she was nothing.
At first, she struggled hard, resisting.
But after Jiang Xu had hit her with twenty or thirty slaps, she had no power to fight back.
Jiang Xu raised his hand: "Did you remember what I just said?"
"I remember, I won't do it again."
Oh, her attitude had changed.
Indeed, there was nothing a good thrashing couldn't solve.
If there was, then you'd just need a second round.
This was a profound enlightenment Jiang Xu had realized from his own parents.
Jiang Xu nodded in satisfaction, "Teachable, good, then you just stay here, I'll be back soon."
"Wait," Jiang Xiaoyan stopped Jiang Xu.
Under his puzzled gaze, she shyly said, "Hit me a few more times."
"You're crazy!"
After cursing at her, Jiang Xu turned around and left.
We could hear Jiang Xiaoyan's giggle from behind.
Got to the front door of Nuonuo's house.
Saw a truck parked over there.
There were workers coming in and out, moving things.
Nuonuo and Li Yuanjuan were both at the door.
"Auntie, Nuonuo, what's going on?"
"It's Xiao Xu!." Upon seeing Jiang Xu, Li Yuanjuan's face split into a grin, "We're moving house, to Cuiyuan Residence.
Your Uncle An bought a three-story villa with a basement over there."
Jiang Xu immediately offered his congratulations.
The houses in that area were not cheap, they cost more than 10,000 yuan per square meter.
A three-story villa, even if it only had a hundred square meter footprint.
Including front and back yard, it would cost at least five million.
Even with An Feng's earning prowess, it would have been impossible to gather five million so quickly.
It was definitely a donation from him.
Naturally, Li Yuanjuan was thrilled about moving to a new house.
She laughed, "Do come to our housewarming party in a couple of days."
"Yes, I'll be there." Jiang Xu nodded, then changed the topic, "So, what do you plan to do with this house?"
"Your Uncle An thinks of selling it."
Jiang Xu suggested, "Auntie, I have a small suggestion.
You might not get much for it if you sell it, plus this place is where Nuonuo grew up.
Why not keep it for memories? "
According to the timeline, this area wasn't far from being demolished.
Selling it now would be a total loss.
"That makes sense. We won't sell then."
After a brief chat, Li Yuanjuan sent Nuonuo and Jiang Xu out.
She didn't need her help here.
On the way, Jiang Xu intentionally let out a deep sigh.
"What's the matter?" Nuonuo asked.
"Now that your family is rich, will you look down upon this poor desk-mate of yours?"
"No." Nuonuo's voice was quiet, but her tone was resolute.
By that, Jiang Xu felt relieved.
A poor man who suddenly becomes rich can easily develop a problematic mentality.
Such as looking down on their old friends.
They tend to spend money lavishly, have high expectations, and dislike manual labor.
However, at a glance, Nuonuo remained the same as always.
Even though she had become the most popular school beauty in Jiang City High School's history.
She was still low-key and timid.
Only when she was with Jiang Xu did she seem a bit bolder.
Well, she even dared to bite him sometimes.
When they arrived at the park, it was kind of late.
But they still managed to see the lanterns.
It was now 8:45 PM.
There was still time.
There were a lot of people in the park, mostly old people, couples, and children, so it was very lively.
With a mask on, Nuonuo looked like a white fairy, flitting around in front of Jiang Xu.
Occasionally, she burst out with a clear, delightful laugh.
The lantern-viewing would end at ten o'clock.
But for some reason, the little girl seemed quite excited today.
She didn't want to go home right away, instead she pulled Jiang Xu to buy snacks and milk tea.
By the time they had browsed and eaten a bit, it was eleven o'clock.
Jiang Xu was starting to feel anxious.
He was about to suggest going back.
Just then, suddenly a heavy rain poured down.
Jiang Xu looked up at the sky, "Are you kidding me?"
