“Ah?”
Startled by these words, An Nuonuo quickly took a few steps back, looking at
Zhou Qingyue with a face full of terror.
Having one Lin Xiaoxian was already a headache.
She certainly did not want a second one.
“Hehehe, just kidding, don’t be scared.” Zhou Qingyue took An Nuonuo’s hand,
“So smooth… oh no, so tender, no that’s not right either…”
An Nuonuo:
She did not want to stay here anymore, it felt too dangerous.
In the evening, Jiang Xu ate with Fu Yanjie.
The two brothers hit an outdoor barbecue stall and ordered a heap of grilled dishes.
Fu Yanjie gulped down a big swig of ice-cold beer.
He burped and said, “Ah, that’s the life, makes me feel like the past summers were all lived in vain.”
Summer, barbecue, and chilled beer were indeed a treat.
Jiang Xu also downed a big gulp, “Yeah, it would be even better if my Nuonuo were here.”
It was the first day apart from Nuonuo, and he missed her.
Fu Yanjie rolled his eyes, “So sappy, but I miss my treasure too.”
Jiang Xu flipped him the bird.
The two kept drinking until almost twelve before heading back to the dormitory.
As soon as Jiang Xu got back to the dorm, he saw Jia Tengying and Jin Xiansheng sitting there, lost in thought.
Curiously, he asked, “What’s up with you guys?”
Both turned their heads toward Jiang Xu and said in unison, “Wuwuwu, we just got dumped?”
Jiang Xu: “What?”
After they explained, Jiang Xu finally understood.
It was them getting deleted by Xia Xiaozhan and Wu Mengmeng as friends.
Jiang Xu said impatiently, “The relationship hadn’t even started properly, dumped my ass, go to sleep.”
After using the bathroom to splash some water on his face, he flopped onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
The alarm clock was off.
He didn’t have class the next morning and could sleep in a bit.
The next day, past nine o’clock, Jiang Xu finally woke up.
Then he headed to the relevant department to take care of the visa and passport issues.
League of Legends was officially released at the end of October.
Jiang Xu planned to fly over during the National Day holidays.
Although the game wasn’t out yet, it was definitely completed.
They were just doing some pre-release testing now.
After considering, Jiang Xu felt it would be better to secure the game’s agency rights earlier.
Moreover, negotiating with the game developers before their release not only would give them a sense of camaraderie but also keep the price reasonable.
After handling the passport, Liu Dahai phoned.
“Boss, I’ve looked into what you asked me to, and about that friend of yours…”
Jiang Xu: “Get to the point.”
“Well,” Liu Dahai said solemnly, “her father passed away last month due to illness.
Before he died, he arranged two ways out for her.
One was to live abroad forever.
The other was to become a teacher at Magic University and live a peaceful life.
However, according to the information I’ve gathered, she is currently contesting control of her family company with the other directors.
Apparently, the situation is not too favorable.”
Jiang Xiaoyan’s dad had passed!
This was something Jiang Xu hadn’t expected.
No wonder Jiang Xiaoyan suddenly returned.
Jiang Xu had thought it was because she couldn’t resist coming back after hearing he was with An Nuonuo.
But the reality was quite different.
That Jiang Xiaoyan hadn’t mentioned a word about it to him was somewhat excessive.
With this new information, things were getting clearer.
Jiang Xiaoyan’s father knew that after his death, Jiang Xiaoyan wouldn’t be able to manage the company and couldn’t suppress those cunning old foxes.
So he might as well plan to give up.
“Boss!” Liu Dahai continued, “Also, from what I found out additionally,
your friend’s father was always in good health.
All of a sudden he fell seriously ill, I suspect there’s foul play involved.”
“Well done,” Jiang Xu said, “I will transfer two hundred thousand to you as a reward soon.
Also, keep following this matter and inform me as soon as there are updates.”
“Alright, thank you, boss.”
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xu sank into thought.
So it seems that Jiang Xiaoyan suspects that her father was poisoned.
That’s why he wanted to compete for a director position at the company.
Only by not being kicked out could he have the chance to investigate the truth.
But she was smart about it.
She didn’t rush in blindly.
Instead, she first secured a teaching position at Magic University.
After all, that was a public service position, which could provide her with a layer of protection.
Jiang Xu didn’t plan to ask Jiang Xiaoyan about it.
In her character, there was a stubborn and strong-willed side.
If he asked her, he figured she probably wouldn’t say anything.
He would wait until he had a clear understanding of everything before figuring out how he could help her.
After all, Jiang Xiaoyan had provided significant assistance to him at the start of his business venture.
Now that he knew about this, he definitely had to help.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu went back to school to teach his classes.
He also helped to address some issues that he was supposed to handle as a class leader.
Many female classmates spoke with a tone of envy laced with sarcasm, saying how nice it would be to have such a boyfriend.
After his afternoon classes, Jiang Xu headed to the library to read books.
His programming had hit a bottleneck.
He had asked his teacher for advice, but it was still missing something.
He thought by reading more books, perhaps he could make a breakthrough.
In the library, Jiang Xu saw Jia Tengying and Jin Xiansheng.
These two were also seriously reading books in a corner.
Right, right, right.
At the dorm, they acted as if they were love-struck, with their heads full of nothing but girls.
But secretly, each of them was soaking themselves in the library, studying hard.
As expected, there were no fools who could get into this school.
Oh, except Fu Yanjie.
How competitive.
Nobody can outdo you guys.
Jiang Xu switched his phone to silent mode and then quietly read books and took notes.
Before he knew it, it had gotten dark.
Jiang Xu’s stomach growled with hunger.
After several hours of reading, he had indeed gained something.
When he looked up, he saw Jin Xiansheng and Jia Tengying.
They had also noticed Jiang Xu.
They paused for a moment, then walked over.
Jia Tengying, “How come you’re here, not on a date with your girlfriend?”
Jiang Xu, “Sometimes, I need to study and enrich myself too. How long have you guys been here?”
Jin Xiansheng, “Just got here less than ten minutes ago. Couldn’t concentrate on the books and was about to leave.”
Jia Tengying nodded, “Same here.”
Jiang Xu,”…”
If it weren’t for the fact that I’d come early in the morning, I might have almost believed them.
These two aren’t planning to secretly work hard and then blindside me, are they?
Anyways, I’m too lazy to expose them.
He said, “Then you guys go ahead, I’ll read a little longer.”
He felt his thoughts were very clear now.
Although he was very hungry, he could endure it for a bit longer.
Jia Tengying and Jin Xiansheng nodded their heads.
They left through the main door and then…
Re-entered through the back door, going up to the second floor of the library.
Gotta grind!
Must out-study Jiang Xu to death!
Jiang Xu stayed until nine in the evening before leaving.
He had an excited expression on his face.
The bottleneck had vanished, he knew how to proceed with his writing.
He returned to his single dorm room.
After eating some bread casually, he turned on his computer and began coding.
It was around two in the morning when Jiang Xu finally stopped.
Looking at his creation, he showed a satisfied expression.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
At that moment, a knock on the door sounded.
And a delicate voice followed, “Sir, would you like the ‘meal delivery’ service?”
