“Clang…”
The large door of a warehouse was slowly opened.
Jiang Xu went in for a look.
Inside, it was full of boxes of mineral water.
But they weren’t the local brand.
They were from the new brand he had asked Lin Xiaoxian to register last time.
The brand was called ‘Champion Mineral Water’.
Uh-huh.
After scoring top on the exams, there would surely be media interviews.
At that time, he would use the opportunity to promote this brand in front of numerous media outlets.
The effect would definitely not be mediocre.
Especially for those parents of freshman and sophomore students.
They would definitely buy it.
Because the symbolism behind this water is excellent. To give their children a better chance at getting into a good school, they wouldn’t mind spending money to take on some of the top scorer’s talent.
Some students would buy it too.
Jiang Xu was extremely confident in this.
Similar to how some people visited temples to pay respects to Confucius and others, praying for blessings.
As for the price, Jiang Xu set it at eight yuan a bottle.
He was aiming for the luxury mineral water market.
In addition, he asked Lin Xiaoxian to pre-register trademarks like ‘Third Place’, ‘Second Place’, ‘Scholar’, and so on.
To avoid anyone else catching onto the trend later.
Currently, this warehouse was filled with mineral water.
There were fifty thousand boxes.
Jiang Xu rented two warehouses temporarily.
After checking that this warehouse was fine, he went to the other one.
Both warehouses were about the same size.
In total, they could accommodate one hundred thousand boxes of mineral water.
That should be enough.
Then, Jiang Xu drove home.
Zhou Qingyue gave him a call.
Jiang Xu pressed the answer key, “What is it?”
“Jiang Xu, why won’t you respond to my messages?” Zhou Qingyue voiced her displeasure.
She had messaged Jiang Xu in the morning, inquiring about the college entrance exams.
But she didn’t receive a response until the evening.
“Oh, I’ve been too busy and didn’t notice.”
Jiang Xu genuinely hadn’t checked his QQthat day.
“Hmph.” Zhou Qingyue huffed, “How do you think the exam went? Are you confident?”
She truly cared about Jiang Xu.
“Not bad, I suppose. Thanks for asking.”
Jiang Xu didn’t have any bitterness toward Zhou Qingyue anymore.
He treated her as he would anyone else.
“Then you…” Zhou Qingyue was hesitant to continue.
In the end, she couldn’t help but ask, “Did you… miss me at all? I missed you so much.”
In her voice, there was a bit of coyness.
“???” Jiang Xu looked puzzled, “Are you okay? If there’s a hospital nearby, you should go check it out. Don’t let it get worse.”
“Damn it, you ungrateful wretch!”
Zhou Qingyue, irritated by his comment, abruptly hung up the phone.
She sat in her chair, her arms crossed, sulking.
Damn dog of a man!
But after a while, she still picked up her phone and sent him a message.
Wishing you great success in your exams.
Jiang Xu only saw the message when he got home.
He was somewhat dazed.
Memories from two lives intertwined and tangled.
He sighed.
After all, it was the past.
The one he liked now and would only like in the future was An Nuonuo.
He politely replied with a “Thank you.”
The next day, the subject of the exam was physics and chemistry.
The same as yesterday.
Jiang Shan, Chen Yue and Li Yuanjuan came over early in the morning with a bunch of food containers.
They brought breakfast and lunch.
Every day was a new menu, very rich.
In a blink of an eye, three days had passed.
The college entrance examination was finally over.
“Jiang Xu, let’s pull an all-nighter at the internet cafe to celebrate properly.”
Fu Yanjie, with his arm around Jiang Xu’s neck, wore a relaxed expression.
He was brimming with confidence this time.
Because after discussing the exam questions with his classmates, he realized he had almost all the correct answers.
Schools he dared not dream of before, he could now consider.
After working so hard for so long, he naturally had to relax a bit.
So, Jiang Xu made a grand gesture, and the little group of four decided to pull an all-nighter together.
Youth should be just like youth.
Health, and all that stuff, let’s put it aside for a bit.
They booked a private room.
They bought all kinds of snacks and drinks.
Zhang Yuanyuan and An Nuonuo were watching TV dramas, Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie were playing CS.
All the high school seniors in the country were celebrating in their own ways at this moment.
The next morning.
Emerging from the internet cafe.
The four of them couldn’t stop yawning.
They grabbed some breakfast on the roadside and went home separately.
After washing up, they collapsed into sleep.
By the time they woke up, it was already past six in the afternoon.
His stomach was growling with hunger.
When he walked into the living room, no one was there.
An Nuonuo hadn’t gotten up yet.
Jiang Xu called his mother.
“Mom, why hasn’t today’s food been delivered yet? I’m really hungry.”
Chen Yue responded irritably, “You’re a grown man, can’t you cook for yourself? Do I have to take care of you? Bang, you’re ridiculous, hurry up and pay… I can’t talk now, I’m busy.”
Jiang Xu:”…”
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Jiang Xu was speechless.
Okay, okay.
So before the exams, he’s a treasure, but after the exams, he’s worthless, huh?
This contrast was just too stark.
Forget it.
He’d just eat some biscuits to fill his stomach for now.
He’d cook when An Nuonuo got up.
While eating biscuits, Jiang Xu switched on the computer and started browsing the news.
As expected, on several news platforms, in the popular discussion sections, Jiang Xu had a place.
Jiang Xu read some of these comments.
All of them were full of criticism and abuse.
Many comments were also filled with jealousy about his good looks.
Jiang Xu was not only unbothered by these comments, he even responded to a few of them.
“I scold myself”.
An Nuonuo got up.
She started cooking immediately.
Soon, the kitchen was filled with delicious aromas.
Jiang Xu took out a small notebook.
It detailed what he was going to do next.
The main task was to deal with the Huahe Group.
For this, he had made many preparations a month ago.
Huahe Group has three main businesses – supermarkets, real estate, and consumer goods, including shoes, and clothes.
These three divisions rake in billions in net profit for the Huahe Group each year.
The consumer goods division makes the most profit and it includes several big-name brands.
If Zhang Xiaohui continued to develop steadily, it would be hard for Jiang Xu to sabotage her.
Unfortunately, after regaining control of the Huahe Group, Zhang Xiaohui’s ambitions grew.
According to the information from An Feng, Zhang Xiaohui was now getting back into the bottled water business.
Moreover, she had acquired two gaming companies, intending to break into the gaming industry.
This would require a large capital investment.
It also gave Jiang Xu an opportunity to attack.
Another point was that An Feng had obtained a lot of evidence of Zhang Xiaohui’s illegal activities in the Huahe Group.
It was not possible for a person with such a vast fortune to be completely clean.
However, An Feng, the old fox, didn’t hand over this evidence to Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu, looking at the contents of the notebook, had a plan in his heart.
“Brother, dinner’s ready.”
An Nuonuo stood at the door and called crisply.
Jiang Xu put away his notebook.
He got up and walked over to An Nuonuo.
He pinched her smooth white cheek, “Before we eat, let’s do something else..”
