An Nuonuo’s room and the one next door both had small balconies.
They had installed fire windows on the balconies.
At that time, Jiang Xu had a hunch that a fight might erupt in the future, so he secretly kept a spare key.
He hadn’t expected to use it so soon.
Jiang Xu carefully opened the fire windows on both sides.
The second floor wasn’t too high, and he nimbly climbed over.
The lights in the room were still on.
An Nuonuo had her back to the balcony.
Jiang Xu saw her with her head bowed, her shoulders shaking continuously.
Suddenly, a chill ran down Jiang Xu’s spine.
Was An Nuonuo crying?
He almost slapped himself twice.
He was despicable for making such a sweet girl cry.
He gently pushed open the balcony door.
Then, he was stunned.
In the room, An Nuonuo was not crying, but laughing.
Jiang Xu:”???”
He walked over to her.
He saw An Nuonuo sitting in a chair, reading a novel and laughing from time to
time.
Jiang Xu:”…”
Well, well, well, the joke was on him.
Jiang Xu felt a bit upset.
So he slowly backed away.
Since she wasn’t mad, it was better to leave quickly.
This secret was best kept from An Nuonuo for now. If she were really angry in the future, it could come in handy.
“Ah!”
just as he retreated a few steps, An Nuonuo seemed to sense something.
She turned around and saw Jiang Xu.
Caught off guard, she screamed and fell onto the floor.
“Are you alright?”
Jiang Xu quickly helped her up, “Did you hurt yourself, let me see…”
The young girl stepped back, her face slightly red, still trying to catch her breath.
She gritted her teeth, “How did you get over here… oh… you hid the key, you
jerk.” She wasn’t stupid and quickly figured out the key to the matter.
Jiang Xu wouldn’t admit it, and he quickly lied, “I didn’t, stop making things
last time.”
“Then give it to me now.” An Nuonuo extended her small, fair hand towards
Jiang Xu.
How could he do that?
He decided to employ the tactic of misleading.
Jiang Xu stepped forward, grabbed her hand, “Were you jealous just now?”
“I wasn’t.”
“You were.”
“I wasn’t.”
“You were.”
“I really wasn’t.”
“If you weren’t, I’m sleeping over tonight.”
“Alright, I was jealous, okay?”
An Nuonuo was completely defeated by Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu nodded his head, lecturing An Nuonuo for a while.
“You can’t do this next time, making me worry for nothing. Alright, go to bed. Having said this, Jiang Xu left through the main door, leaving An Nuonuo blinking and feeling that something was not right.
“That’s right, the key!”
An Nuonuo quickly chased after him.
But Jiang Xu had already disappeared.
*The young girl gently bit her lip and stomped her foot.
Layer upon layer of shadow…
Time, like certain readers, came in a rush and left in a flurry.
Soon, it was time for the new year holiday.
Some people started to go back to work.
Chen Yue and Jiang Shan returned yesterday, took Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo out for a meal, and then went on a trip themselves.
The couple’s main task now was to travel all over the country and then around the world.
In fact, the assets Jiang Xu now had would last him a lifetime, provided he didn’t squander it.
Today’s breakfast was made by Jiang Xu because An Nuonuo had been up all night.
He bought bun filled with meat and made soy milk himself, then brought it to An Nuonuo’s room.
She was sitting absolutely straight in front of the computer, typing rapidly, her petite face wearing a serious expression.
“Eat your breakfast first, I’ll help you respond.”
“Oh, ok.”
When An Nuonuo got up, her eyes remained glued to the computer screen. The traffic that Zhou Qingyue brought to the ‘Fairy Concentration Camp’ online store was quite amazing.
The sales were increasing every day.
An Nuonuo had to devote a lot of time each day to customer service.
They needed to hire more staff, but it would take a few days until everyone was back at work and available to be hired.
So these few days were going to be busy.
The products were being shipped from Magic City.
However, since there were only a few employees at the company, everyone was extremely busy.
Standing off to the side, An Nuonuo ate a bun and softly stated, “It must be hard.”
The two of them took turns acting as customer service representatives. An Nuonuo worked nights, and Jiang Xu worked during the day. Jiang Xu laughed, “What are you talking about? Go to sleep after you finish eating.”
“Mm, alright.”
After finishing her breakfast, An Nuonuo went to bed, tucked herself in, and quickly fell asleep.
Even though the shop’s products were expensive.
But because of the celebrity effect, many people still chose these products.
After all, as of now.
Many consumers believed that if a product was endorsed by a somewhat popular celebrity, it indicated that the product was of good quality.
And they were willing to pay for it.
Unlike a few years later, when many products endorsed by celebrities failed spectacularly, leading to a shift in this trend.
Every day there were around five hundred users inquiring, and a portion of them directly placed orders.
Jiang Xu found this job to be a piece of cake.
When there was nobody to assist, Jiang Xu passed the time by typing, and his days flew by quickly.
He really enjoyed this feeling of striving hard.
Two days later, the employees at the makeup company all started to work.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo no longer had to act as customer service representatives.
“Thank you, brother, for working so hard these few days.
At this moment, Jiang Xu was sitting on the sofa, eyes closed, relishing the relaxing head massage An Nuonuo was giving him.
Her fingers were gentle, making it a soothing experience.
Jiang Xu was satisfied, “Miss An, would you mind to extend the session?” No sooner had he spoken than Jiang Xu’s arm got bitten.
The pain made him grimace.
With teeth this sharp, Jiang Xu didn’t dare to let her eat anything else.
After biting Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo asked him if he had checked all the holiday homework.
The school term would start right after the Lantern Festival.
“Mm, I checked it yesterday.” Jiang Xu stretched lazily, “Let’s go check out the construction site.”
The previous day, employees from the company where Cao Deshuang worked had called Jiang Xu.
They said they had been working overtime throughout the New Year holiday to finish the house as quickly as possible.
Eight of the houses that were to be handed over to Jiang Xu had been capped the previous day.
They invited him to come and have a look when he had time. If there were no problems, he could sign off on them.
This was an unexpected joy: they were more than a month ahead of the timeline Cao Deshuang had given.
“Good.” An Nuonuo also wanted to see.
After all, her house obtained by displacement was not far away.
It would be about a fifteen-minute walk.
Today, Jiang Xu didn’t want to drive, so An Nuonuo drove her little QQ..
They arrived at the construction site.
Jiang Xu looked around.
The greenery was adequate, and there was enough space between the floors.
This meant the houses here had greater potential for value appreciation in the future.
After finding the relevant supervisor and presenting identification, a dedicated employee escorted Jiang Xu to view the apartment.
According to the staff’s explanation, the houses were all allotted uniformly due to displacement.
The area was all the same, too square meters.
The common area was small, only 10 square meters.
Since Jiang Xu was the first to sign the contract.
So he had the priority in choosing.
He chose the nineteenth, twentieth, twenty-first, and twenty-second floors.
A floor consisted of four apartments.
They soon arrived at the nineteenth floor.
“Hmm? What is this!”
The moment he pushed the door open, Jiang Xu was stunned..
