Chapter 589: Chapter 589 An Nuonuo: ???
Jiang Xu, who was already prepared, paused at Mei Jiji’s words, “What do you mean by ‘a little something extra’?”
“There’s a girl in your company named Avi, quite nice,” Mei Jiji licked his tongue, “If I win, you set up a dinner for me to eat with her.
This woman is so aloof, I’ve asked her out many times but she never agrees.
If I lose, I’ll give you the girlfriend I’ve been talking to recently.”
Jiang Xu’s eyelids slightly lifted, “Fine, but if you lose, you don’t have to give me the woman, I’m not interested.”
Mei Jiji bumped his fists together, “Good, come on, let me show you my strength!”
Three minutes later, Mei Jiji lay on the ground, his eyes lifelessly staring at the sky.
Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of boxing king, bro?
His strength, though not professional level, should be top tier among amateurs, right?
He had even planned to go easy on Jiang Xu.
Who knew, he’d be stunned right from the start.
Jiang Xu’s skills weren’t particularly outstanding, but he was powerful.
As the saying goes, overwhelming force can overcome all skill.
In the face of absolute power, all the skill and speed in the world are useless.
Oh, of course, except for when cheating.
Jiang Xu, however, was quite surprised.
Dammit.
Made such a big fuss, thought you were strong or something.
And this is it?
Mei Jiji quickly stood up from the ground, his face struggling to maintain dignity, “I just hurt my back a moment ago, that wasn’t my true strength, let’s go again!”
Jiang Xu kindly reminded, “Don’t you want to rest a bit?”
“No need, come on, fight to the death!”
Mei Jiji, like a wounded beast, charged at Jiang Xu with a ferocious and desperate posture.
A minute later, he was stepped on by Jiang Xu like a dead dog, his face flushed red, “Bastard, get your foot off me, I’m a member of the Mei Family, you can’t humiliate me like this!”
Jiang Xu didn’t actually enjoy humiliating people.
However, given the Mei Family’s prior actions, if Jiang Xu appeared too indifferent, it would make the people behind the Mei Family suspicious.
So, poor Mei Jiji had to suffer.
Believing he would understand.
Thinking this, Jiang Xu lifted his foot and stomped heavily on Mei Jiji’s chest several times.
Mei Jiji almost didn’t catch his breath.
His bodyguards hurried over, helping him up.
Jiang Xu said indifferently, “You lost, sign the paper, get lost.”
Mei Jiji’s expression shifted unpredictably, then he said coldly, “Impossible, it doesn’t count, let’s go again!”
“Can’t accept defeat?” Jiang Xu mocked, “In that case, just get lost.”
Mei Jiji’s acting was quite impressive, not a single flaw to be seen.
If he were too eager to sign after losing, that would be suspicious.
After all, it’s about shares worth two billion.
And everything here was being transmitted back to somewhere in real time.
Not long after Mei Jiji had declared he wouldn’t accept the loss, his phone rang.
Mei Jiji saw the caller ID, his face changed.
He hurried to a corner to answer the call.
Then he was seen constantly changing his expression, gesturing with his hands, not knowing what he was saying.
In the end, Mei Jiji despondently lowered his hand, responded with a yes, waited for the other party to hang up, then put his phone away.
He walked up to Jiang Xu with a heavy step, his teeth clenched in anger, “I’ll sign!”
“Heh.” Jiang Xu chuckled coldly with an indifferent smirk.
Without guessing, it could be assumed that the person who had called Mei Jiji was definitely the mastermind behind him.
Telling him to sign could mean two things.
One was that Mei Jiji had acted shamelessly, making them lose face.
Another possibility was that there was some other major move waiting for him.
Jiang Xu was more inclined to believe the second option.
Having obtained the contract, Jiang Xu said coldly, “Remove all the staff from that company and I will immediately send someone to take over.”
After finishing his statement, he left, surrounded by several bodyguards.
He hadn’t gone far when Jiang Xu stopped, turned his head to look at Mei Jiji, whose complexion was extremely ugly, and said, “By the way, bring your woman along as well.
Although I don’t want her, she might be a good reward for my subordinates.”
Mei Jiji was beside himself with rage, “You bastard!”
Jiang Xu didn’t pay him any more attention and left the rooftop.
It had just dawned on Jiang Xu that the girlfriend mentioned by Mei Jiji must have been meant to relay a message.
Without saying that, there would have been no way to bring her over.
After Jiang Xu had gone down, Mei Jiji knelt before one of the cameras and kowtowed forcefully, “I’m sorry, I’m useless, I’ve let down your expectations.”
As his forehead touched the ground, a bloodthirsty gleam flitted across Mei Jiji’s eyes.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu met Mei Jiji’s so-called girlfriend in his office.
Her name was Mei Du.
She belonged to a collateral branch of the Mei Family, and after several generations, had no blood relation to the main family.
Upon hearing this name, Jiang Xu found it a bit hard to keep his composure.
The names of this family’s members were indeed unique, one after another.
Mei Du, upon seeing Jiang Xu, didn’t say a word and handed him a document.
Jiang Xu carefully read it through.
If he signed this contract, the company he had just acquired would still be under Mei Jiji’s control.
However, it would also provide Jiang Xu an annual management fee of one billion.
This money would come through an overseas account.
Jiang Xu signed without hesitation.
The Mei Family had shown sufficient sincerity, so he would not focus solely on the immediate benefits and covet the two billion excessively.
There were still many opportunities to make money in the future.
The most important… was to deal with the person behind the Mei Family…
Then, Jiang Xu said to Mei Du, “I will arrange a place for you to stay, do not leave without my permission.
Also, if any of my men come to you… remember to serve them well.”
He intended to play the role to the hilt.
Besides, this woman had made her role clear from the moment she entered.
She was a secret agent, trained by the Mei Family; there was no question of her loyalty.
Mei Du nodded and left.
Time to leave work.
When he got home, only An Nuonuo was there.
Jiang Xu asked in surprise, “Where are uncle and auntie, my parents?
Usually, by this time, they would’ve already been here, waiting to have dinner with me.”
“They’re having hotpot at my parents’ place,” An Nuonuo said softly, “They said they can’t come over every day, and that we should have some private space.”
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but laugh, then suddenly scooped her up in his arms, “In that case, we can’t let their good intentions go to waste.”
An Nuonuo said with a hint of shyness, “Can we have dinner first~”
Jiang Xu said, “Sure thing, but you need to call me by a cute name first.”
An Nuonuo hesitated, “Brother?”
Jiang Xu shook his head, “No, too common. It needs to be something more unique.”
“Then what else?” asked An Nuonuo, puzzled.
This girl, in some respects, was still quite lacking in knowledge.
“Ahem,” Jiang Xu cleared his throat and looked steadily at her, “Could you, maybe, call me… you know… ‘Master’…?”
An Nuonuo: “???”
