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

Chapter 50: Adoptive Father, please accept my bow!

Fu Yanjie managed to free himself from the mentality of admiring his impressive friend, wondering how he could kowtow to him in the future.

He looked at Jiang Xu and blinked dazedly, "You must be mistaken. When did I ever say anything like that?"

Jiang Xu shrugged, "Fine, I was originally planning to help you make some money..."

"Oh great benefactor, please accept my gratitude!"

Jiang Xu pulled An Nuonuo into one of the vans.

He had An Nuonuo sit by the window, while Fu Yanjie sat next to Jiang Xu.

Numerous male classmates all rushed into the van.

They were all fawning over Jiang Xu.

"Brother Jiang Xu, you're so awesome."

"Dear uncle, allow me to safeguard Nuonuo from now on."

"Oppa Jiang Xu, please approve of my marriage to Nuonuo."

Jiang Xu raised his middle finger at them, "Screw off! Whoever so much as thinks about my sister will get all three of his legs broken."

Of course.

Only the cheekier and more lively classmates joked like this.

The majority of male classmates.

Upon seeing such a stunning girl as An Nuonuo, they dare not take even an extra glance.

Zhou Qingyue and Li Honghong, both disoriented, headed for another van.

Their emotions were a whirlwind.

So this was what they called a complete backfire...

By the time they arrived at the KTV, An Nuonuo was no longer nervous.

But her face still had a slight blush.

It looked as if she'd applied a natural blush to her cheeks.

Natural yet enchanting.

Everyone got out of the van.

An Nuonuo naturally became the center of attention.

The radiance she emitted from inside out could not be obstructed by anything.

Zhou Qingyue's face turned pale.

She'd lost.

And it was the kind of defeat where she crashed and burned.

Now, she finally understood why Jiang Xu had chosen to let her go.

The class teacher had booked a large private room.

Upon entering, many were eager to find out what song An Nuonuo wanted to sing.

This had never happened before.

An Nuonuo found the attention overwhelming and kept shaking her head, saying she wasn't in a rush to sing.

Jiang Xu pulled An Nuonuo to sit at the side, "You guys have fun."

This group of kids, it was almost like they had 'I have ill intentions' written all over their faces.

An Nuonuo leaned against the wall, with Jiang Xu by her side, which brought her great comfort.

Those who were more active in class had already started their wild antics.

Fu Yanjie leaned over, "Bro, what was that money-making plan you mentioned earlier?"

Jiang Xu told him about the boxed meal selling idea.

"In the future, Nuonuo and I will prepare them, and you'll sell them. For every box sold, we'll give you fifty cents, what do you think?"

This was how Jiang Xu had initially planned it.

First, he'd open the sales channels, and then he'd mainly hand the work over to Fu Yanjie.

He also needed to find time to establish a studio.

Then, he hoped to earn enough money to buy a place for the office over the summer break.

Jiang Xu didn't really like renting houses or office spaces.

Using others' property always lacked a sense of security.

It was far better to buy one's own, which could even appreciate in value in the future.

But to earn enough money, selling boxed meals wouldn't be enough.

The main relying point still had to be writing novels.

He could finish the second book in a few days.

Then, Jiang Xu needed to start on the third book.

"Dude, you're amazing. To think of this, let alone implement it." Fu Yanjie gave Jiang Xu a thumbs-up.

Then he said, "Add twenty cents to each boxed meal for me, and I'll take care of the cost."

Jiang Xu's eyes lit up, "You have a connection?"

"Naturally." Fu Yanjie declared proudly, "That stall in South Market, belongs to my family.

If you want to buy cheap and fresh ingredients, it's just a matter of saying."

Jiang Xu was curious, "Then why didn't you go to help your dad during the summer vacation? Wouldn't you earn more that way?"

Fu Yanjie frowned, visibly displeased, "My dad said that if I worked under him, he would take ninety percent of my salary. It's so fucking unjust..."

Jiang Xu: "..."

Jiang Xu shook his head, "Alright then, since this is the case, we can hire more people and expand the business..."

Originally, Jiang Xu just wanted to have an extra way to make money during the summer break.

But since Fu Yanjie had connections, they should naturally seize this opportunity.

Seeing the two of them engaged in lively discussion, An Nuonuo couldn't help but join in.

All three of them didn't notice Zhou Qingyue getting closer.

She originally intended to invite Jiang Xu to sing and try to mend their relationship.

Then, she overheard them discussing how to make money.

She looked at Jiang Xu's profile and was lost in thought.

Jiang Xu seemed increasingly strange to her.

And he seemed increasingly mysterious.

While everyone else was only interested in having fun, he was already planning on how to make money.

And he even authored a best-selling novel.

This boy, whom she once despised, was getting further and further away from her.

She seemed to have no chance of catching up anymore.

In future, their paths would cross less and less.

The moment she thought of this, Zhou Qingyue's heart ached, and her face turned even more pale.

She gave up on the idea of asking Jiang Xu to sing with her, and returned to her seat dispiritedly.

Not once did Jiang Xu or the others notice Zhou Qingyue.

After finalizing their detailed strategy, they divided the tasks. Fu Yanjie took the outsourcing tasks while Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo handled the internal tasks.

Fu Yanjie grinned, "I hope to surpass my dad in wealth soon.

Then it'll be my turn to throw money in his face and say confidently, 'Old man, take this and spend it!'"

Jiang Xu gave him a thumbs up: "You are truly your father's good son."

"I wish to be the angel you love in the fairy tale..."

The beautiful voice was Zhou Qingyue singing.

She does have a nice voice.

She invested her emotions into the song, which gathered applause from everyone.

After the song ended, she bowed to everyone, "Sorry, there's something at home. I need to leave first, goodbye."

After saying this, she put down the microphone and left.

As she turned around, a tear slipped down her cheek.

Because the room was rather dim, no one noticed.

"Hey, wait for me."

Li Honghong followed her out.

Jiang Xu quickly grabbed two microphones.

Handed one to An Nuonuo, "Let's sing a duet. What do you want to sing?"

The girl shyly said, "I don't want to sing..."

Jiang Xu, "No, you want to, let's sing Mermaid then."

An Nuonuo, "..."

Jiang Xu selected the song then started singing, "I draw a circle on the beach, a world of peace that belongs to both of us..."

Then he gave An Nuonuo an encouraging look.

An Nuonuo took a deep breath, also stood up and followed along singing, "A world of peace that belongs to both of us..."

The room instantly quieted down as everyone listened to their duet.

Except for Jiang Xu, it was everyone's first time hearing An Nuonuo sing.

Her voice was empty yet melodious.

Like a trickle of water, it unintentionally flows into people's hearts.

After the song finished.

Everyone was quiet for a moment, then they all started clapping.

Fu Yanjie even instigated, "Kiss each other, kiss each other!"
