Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Among the younger generation, there are hardly many who are stronger than her.

“Hmm…” After listening to Jiang Xu’s words, Jiang Xiaoyan pondered for a moment and said, “It’s really hard to distinguish between the true and the false.

Otherwise, let’s do this, we’ll split up.

I’ll look into that agency’s information to see if I can make any discoveries.

What you need to do is two things.

The first is to keep a close watch on Xiao Jibo, always keeping tabs on his movements.

The second is to investigate the major business moguls in the country.

See if they’ve recently encountered anything similar to what you’re dealing with.

If that’s the case…”

Jiang Xiaoyan paused in her tone, her voice suddenly turning cold, “damn it, I’ll transform into a Super Saiyan and turn them all into red bean paste!”

Jiang Xu was amused by her.

But as they say, the onlooker sees better than the player.

Indeed, after letting Jiang Xiaoyan, an onlooker, analyze it like this, the entire situation’s context became clear.

“Alright, I’ll do as you say,” Jiang Xu nodded and then instructed, “Remember to pay extra attention to your safety too.”

“I know, I’m very clever,” Jiang Xiaoyan said indifferently. “By the way, can you promise me something?”

Jiang Xu said somewhat cautiously, “What is it, tell me first.”

This woman often came up with all kinds of strange requests, and Jiang Xu had long been wary of them.

“It’s nothing much,” Jiang Xiaoyan laughed mischievously, “just whether you can hang a photo of me right above the nightstand in your bedroom.”

Jiang Xu: “???”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “That way, when you’re communicating with An Nuonuo, I can see it too.”

Jiang Xu: “Wait until the next time I see you, you’ll know what’s coming to you.”

Having said that, Jiang Xu hung up the phone.

He followed the advice given by Jiang Xiaoyan and took a two-pronged approach.

First, get to the bottom of it before saying anything else.

If this really was a trap designed by those top-tier financial conglomerates abroad, aimed at harvesting the assets of domestic businessmen,

then Mr. Jiang wasn’t afraid.

After all, his wings were already fully grown.

Compared to confronting them head-on, of course, it was the enemy’s sneaky moves behind the scenes that were more difficult to guard against.

The next day, the public opinion about Chu Youwei’s incident had already passed.

However, for the sake of caution, Mr. Jiang still told Chu Youwei not to come to the company nor to live stream for the next few days.

Mr. Jiang spent the entire day at the company, handling various matters.

Regardless of whether Xiao Jibo’s words were true or not, he had to be prepared.

The most important thing, naturally, was to ensure there was enough cash flow.

The group’s cash flow wasn’t particularly high recently due to investments in chips and screens.

Normally, it would definitely suffice, but now it was time to be prepared for a rainy day.

Mr. Jiang had dinner in the company cafeteria.

When he returned home, An Nuonuo was not there.

Today, she went to the Hundred Flowers Club with Bai Xiaoya.

Speaking of which, this business club wasn’t as good as imagined.

Back when Bai Xiaoya was down and out, ousted by her family, left with nothing, the Hundred Flowers Club didn’t kick her out,

but none of its members offered her the slightest help.

After all, this was a club that made choices based on the strength of others.

People would help you if you were capable and could bring benefits to everyone.

But despite this, Mr. Jiang didn’t let An Nuonuo and Bai Xiaoya withdraw from the club.

After all, this was still a network and a huge channel.

Some things were better understood without being explicitly stated. There was no need to point them out.

Mr. Jiang took a shower and came out wearing a bathrobe.

“Hmm, cousin?”

Chu Youwei somehow appeared at his home, sitting properly in the living room.

“Ah, Mr. Jiang.”

Upon seeing Jiang Xu, Chu Youwei quickly stood up.

The sight of Jiang Xu in a bathrobe involuntarily brought back the memory of the morning she walked in on him and An Nuonuo.

Her pretty face turned beet red in an instant.

Jiang Xu was somewhat taken aback.

Why did her face suddenly turn red?

But to be fair, Chu Youwei, with her cheeks blushing at this moment, looked particularly similar to An Nuonuo.

If a skillful makeup artist were to apply makeup according to specifications, she would look at least ninety percent like her.

Jiang Xu had a moment of daze, before he smiled and said, “Nuonuo went out. Do you need something, cousin?”

“Oh, I just called her earlier,” Chu Youwei said embarrassingly: “Thinking she was at home, I didn’t ask her beforehand.

It’s nothing important, I just made a cake at home and brought a piece over for you guys.”

It was then that Jiang Xu noticed the exquisite cake on the table.

“Great, thanks cousin.”

“Stop calling me cousin,” Chu Youwei responded with still flushed cheeks: “Just call me Youwei.”

“Sure,” Jiang Xu nodded: “Then you don’t have to call me Mr. Jiang, just my name will do.”

“Okay, then I’ll be leaving now.”

Watching Chu Youwei leave in a somewhat awkward manner, Jiang Xu chuckled and shook his head.

How could he not see Chu Youwei’s affection for him?

Isn’t it like sitting in front of a fire and not feeling the warmth?

But such matters were certainly not to be spoken aloud.

Moreover, Chu Youwei had always been very discreet, never doing anything out of line.

Well, then let this secret rot in everyone’s heart.

At half-past ten, An Nuonuo returned.

Her cheeks slightly flushed.

Jiang Xu leaned close to smell, but there was no scent of alcohol.

Perplexed, he asked, “You didn’t drink, so why are your cheeks so red?”

“Brother Xu, at the gathering today, I heard a very explosive piece of gossip. Wait for me, I’ll go brush my teeth and then tell you about it.”

With that, An Nuonuo dashed to the bathroom.

Jiang Xu paused for a second, then couldn’t help but chuckle wryly.

Indeed, all girls love gossip.

Even An Nuonuo was no exception.

Jiang Xu lay down on the bed first, and after a while, An Nuonuo crawled in as well, resting her head on Jiang Xu’s chest.

Chattering, she said, “So, today one of the sisters said that there’s this rich businessman in his seventies who married a woman in her twenties.

Then that wife secretly got together with the businessman’s butler and even had a son.

And later, that son inherited the businessman’s fortune.”

This kind of thing was very common, and Jiang Xu was no longer surprised by it.

But he still showed a look of amazement: ‘My god, there really are such thrilling stories.’

“That’s not all,” An Nuonuo continued: “Do you know who inherited the rich businessman’s estate?”

Jiang Xu shook his head: “I don’t know.”

An Nuonuo said, “It’s Xiao Jibo’s father.”

Jiang Xu’s eyes narrowed.

Isn’t that a coincidence.

It seems that this entire family, from top to bottom, doesn’t play by the book.

Beyond that piece of gossip, An Nuonuo chattered on about several others.

She rarely hears these sort of things on a normal day.

Upon suddenly hearing them, the shock was immense.

Thus, as soon as she got home, she couldn’t wait to share it with Jiang Xu.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xu had lost interest in listening further; his hands were beginning to wander.
