Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend - Chapter 9
Chapter 9: Chapter 9: He actually gave a ride to another girl!
Translator: 549690339
An Nuonuo’s mind went blank all of a sudden.
Jiang Xu’s hand, it was so broad, and so warm.
It gave a sense of overwhelming security.
She momentarily forgot to pull away.
Jiang Xu was also extremely excited.
An Nuonuo’s hand was very soft, truly boneless.
It was cold, like holding jelly.
He wondered when he could openly do this again.
Once they got downstairs, Jiang Xu let go of her.
The young girl’s face seemed ready to steam.
Jiang Xu went to bring the bicycle over.
He patted the back seat: “Get on, if you refuse, I’ll tell the teacher you were reading a novel in class.”
An Nuonuo panicked: “I didn’t.”
Jiang Xu revealed a villainous smile: “Do you think the teacher will believe you or me?
You don’t really want to be scolded by the teacher, do you, classmate An Nuonuo?”
An Nuonuo felt like she had been completely manipulated by Jiang Xu.
She didn’t have any capacity to resist.
But she didn’t feel angry about it, nor did she reject it.
On the contrary, there seemed to be a strange feeling spreading from the bottom of her heart.
It was as if silently nourishing something imperceptible.
Maybe one day, it will blossom and bear fruit.
An Nuonuo carefully sat behind the bicycle.
Her small hands gripping the springs under the seat.
“Hold on tight, I’m about to get going.”
A faint smile appeared on An Nuonuo’s face.
Jiang Xu was her first friend in the real sense.
Even though they’d known each other for just two days.
But An Nuonuo felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
She silently motivated herself.
She must study well and go to the same university as Jiang Xu in the future.
As for what would happen after going to university, she hadn’t and didn’t dare to think about it now.
“Damn it, stinky Jiang Xu, dead Jiang Xu, I really want to chop you into pieces!”
Zhou Qingyue had been cursing Jiang Xu the whole way home.
After school, she deliberately waited at the school entrance for a while.
Just wanting to wait for Jiang Xu to come out and give her a ride home.
Who knew that she would wait for so long without any sign of him.
She had to walk home again today.
It was both tiredness and a waste of time.
Curse Jiang Xu, but also missed the days when Jiang Xu would take her to and from school regardless of the weather.
“Ding Ding!”
The sound of a bicycle bell came from behind.
Zhou Qingyue’s heart leaped.
That was Jiang Xu’s bicycle.
His bell sounded different from everyone else’s.
Once, because Zhou Qingyue commented casually.
Everyone’s bell sounds the same, too unpersonalized.
So Jiang Xu customized it some more.
The sound was clearer, and it penetrated even stronger.
“Humph, no matter how nice you talk, aren’t you coming to pick me up now?
I need to teach you a lesson later and can’t easily let you drive me.”
Zhou Qingyue thought to herself, her back straightening a bit.
The sound was getting closer.
The bicycle passed Zhou Qingyue.
But it didn’t stop as she had expected.
What was even more unbelievable to Zhou Qingyue was.
There was actually a person riding on the back of the bicycle.
An Nuonuo!
Jiang Xu actually gave her a ride?!
Zhou Qingyue felt completely ridiculous.
She couldn’t help but shout: “Jiang Xu, dammit stop!”
She felt terribly insulted.
In what way was she not superior to An Nuonuo?
Even if Jiang Xu were to find someone to provoke her, he should have found someone better.
What did all this mean?
Yet, Zhou Qingyue’s shouting did not make Jiang Xu stop. On the contrary, it only sped him up.
After his reincarnation, Jiang Xu did not want to have any more contact with this woman.
He avoided her as if she were a venomous snake!
He just didn’t understand.
Hadn’t this woman been rejecting him all along?
Yet, she kept making all sorts of grand promises to him.
Claiming that if she ever were to consider a romantic relationship, he would be her first choice.
Judging by that remark, Jiang Xu was clueless about the amount he had given up.
In the end, he lost everything.
“Ah, Jiang Xu, you bastard!”
The sight of Jiang Xu acting as if seeing her was akin to seeing a plague, completely drove Zhou Qingyue mad.
But by this time, Jiang Xu had already walked far away and did not hear her voice.
He successfully dropped An Nuonuo off at her home.
He waved to her, “I’ll pick you up at eight o’clock tomorrow morning.”
“Ok, see you later, Jiang,” she replied.
On his way home, he stopped by the vegetable market and bought some food.
He cooked the food at home and then rode his bike to his family’s restaurant.
It was a little past six, and the place was already bustling with people.
Looking at the three-story street food stall located in a prime spot, Jiang Xu was lost in thought.
The shop was rented.
In his previous life, as real estate prices increased, the landlord sold the building.
He heard it was sold for over a hundred million then.
The new owner, after purchasing the building, no longer wanted to continue renting this space to their family.
Later on, with some effort, they found a place with a worse location but higher rent.
The business was affected for a long time.
It wasn’t until the district underwent renovation and demolition that the foot traffic started to pick up again.
If Jiang Xu remembered correctly.
The current property prices in Jiang City were only three to four thousand.
This commercial and residential building covered an area of about three hundred square meters.
All three floors combined were nearly one thousand square meters.
Given the current market rate, four million should be sufficient to buy it in cash.
He had to find a way to persuade his parents to purchase it while property prices were still low.
That way, they wouldn’t have to move their business elsewhere in the future.
The family probably wouldn’t have that much in savings currently.
However, they could probably pull together one million.
After which, they could apply for a loan.
Given the current business volume of the restaurant, the likelihood of the bank granting approval should be fairly high.
“Mom, Dad, eat first, I’ll help you out,” Jiang Xu said, handing over the lunch box and taking over their tasks.
They had hired a chef and two waitstaff at the restaurant, but there were times when it was extremely busy.
“Hehe, such a good son,” his mother, Chen Yue, said with a laugh.
Jiang Shan was nodding and eating his food, “Our son’s culinary skills are improving. Even if he doesn’t get into a good university, he can still be a great chef.”
“Shut your mouth!” Chen Yue retorted irritably. “With our son’s grades, he won’t have any issues getting into the First Academy.”
As he was going over the accounts, Jiang Xu listened to his parents’ banter, feeling an overwhelming sense of satisfaction.
In his previous life.
When his college entrance exam score came in, it was just over four hundred.
Both of his elderly parents, it seemed as if they had instantly aged by over a decade.
Thinking back, he was really an ungrateful wretch.
This time around, he certainly wasn’t going to let that happen again.
“Mom, Dad, how much do we currently have in savings?” Jiang Xu asked.
His parents were quite open with him regarding the family finances.
Chen Yue answered, “Currently, the total savings from all our bank accounts is around one million two hundred fifty thousand.”
Jiang Xu’s eyes lit up, “Take it all out and give it to me.”
Jiang Shan quietly put down his chopsticks and picked up the broom that was lying in the corner…
