“You’re a big bully! If you’re watching TV, I’ll complain to Auntie that you’re
picking on me.”
Having spoken, An Nuonuo ran upstairs.
Jiang Xu:
He was completely taken aback.
Oh, dear Nuonuo, how come you’re so flawless?
You make things so difficult for me.
He waited and waited, but An Nuonuo didn’t come down.
just as Jiang Xu began to suspect that this little girl had stood him up again,
He received a Qftmessage from An Nuonuo: I’ve posted the photos in my space, go and have a look.
Beside him, the only other friend An Nuonuo had on QQwas Zhang Yuanyuan.
So she dared to upload them there.
Jiang Xu immediately entered her space, incidentally leaving her a footprint.
“Hiss!”
Jiang Xu gasped.
The first photo was of her in white stockings.
From the angle of the photo, it was taken against a mirror.
Her legs were plump and elastic, looking as adorable as lotus roots.
The second photo was of her in flesh-coloured stockings.
The color matched her skin perfectly.
It wonderfully illustrated what are called slender jade legs, smooth and fragrant.
Both pictures were without shoes.
Aside from her perfect legs, her little feet were delicate and lovely…
Suddenly, a word popped up in Jiang Xu’s mind: contentment brings happiness!
Jiang Xu quietly saved these two photos.
By his understanding of An Nuonuo, she would surely delete the photos after a while.
As expected.
When Jiang Xu entered her space again, the photos were gone.
This round, Jiang Xu had the upper hand.
An Nuonuo came down from upstairs.
A hint of blush still lingering on her face.
Embarrassed to look at Jiang Xu, she said, “Let’s eat.”
The hot pot was boiling, and one by one, the ingredients were thrown in.
Outside, the chilly wind cut to the bone; inside, eating hot pot with the girl he liked was unspeakably cozy.
After they were done eating, An Nuonuo washed dishes, Jiang Xu cleaned up the room, and then they each went back to their rooms to shower.
The next day, Jiang Xu went to apply for a loan with his house deed.
His house was in a great location and its value had soared recently.
So, he got a loan of fifteen million.
In this way, he had almost thirty-seven million in usable funds.
It was enough!
At home, Jiang Xu opened the stock market.
The next day, Feixiang’s stock price dropped as soon as the market opened.
There was no significant change in the market, just a large number of retail investors dumping shares, but no one was buying.
Lin Nan called.
“Boss, found out, this Xu Kun’s family owns the fifth largest entertainment company in the country.
As we suspected, they aim at Feixiang Network.
Once they take over, our company may very likely be their next or following target.”
Jiang Xu had an epiphany.
It all made sense now.
Having an entertainment company at home, they needed good scripts and IPs to produce more works.
According to the timeline in his past life, the concept of IP would not have been hyped until a few years later.
It is even possible that Xu Kun was the one driving this trend in his previous life.
Jiang Xu had a plan in mind.
He told Lin Nan, “Keep an eye on this stock in the next few days.
The moment someone starts buying in large quantities in the market, we should follow suit immediately.”
With more than thirty million in hand, I could secure more than ten percent of the shares.
The next day, and the day after that, the share price of Feixiang continued to drop.
The current share price had already hit one point seven.
There was still not much movement in the market.
However, on the internet, a great number of scattered shareholders were cursing the company.
It was Friday.
Jiang Xu predicted that the most likely action would be taken on Tuesday.
With two more drops, the share price would be around one yuan.
This was about the lowest point.
In the afternoon, An Nuonuo returned.
Fu Yanjie and Zhang Yuanyuan also came.
“Jiang Xu, you take leave every day, beware of my grades surpassing yours.”
As soon as he entered, Fu Yanjie was shouting loudly.
Jiang Xu came out of the bedroom and sneered at this talk, “You couldn’t surpass me even if you had a hundred systems.
Fu Yanjie became unconvinced, “Why do you look down on me?
Jiang Xu: “Because you don’t have the face of a hero.”
Fu Yanjie fumed, “Let’s see who’s better!
It wasn’t long before Fu Yanjie succumbed to Jiang Xu’s easy dominance.
The two girls giggled on the side.
Jiang Xu let him go, asking, “Why did you come over today?”
Fu Yanjie moved his arm, “It’s holiday this weekend, I plan to go to Magic City with Yuanyuan, do you want to come?”
“Oh, why have a holiday out of nowhere?” Jiang Xu was a bit puzzled.
The curriculum in the third year of high school was very tight.
Students like Jiang Xu, who were local to the area, were slightly better off, sometimes they could go home around six.
But those who stayed over, they also had evening self-study time.
The school preferred to allow only half an hour a day for student sleep, the rest of the time to be spent studying.
Zhang Yuanyuan said, “One student fainted and fell down the stairs due to a lack of glucose caused by overwork.
It was serious, and the parents protested to the school.
Under pressure, the school allowed a holiday this week, probably no more afterwards.”
“So that’s it.” Jiang Xu nodded, then asked Fu Yanjie what he was doing in Magic City.
“Buying houses.” Fu Yanjie said, “I’m eighteen now, my father says that house prices will rise in first-tier cities.
He has high expectations for Magic City, so he gave me thirty million to buy a few houses.”
Jiang Xu:”???”
He suddenly felt a little choked.
Damn it.
I had worked hard to get over thirty million, half of which I still owe.
This damn guy gets thirty million from his family just like that, huh?
I really want to punch him.
Fu Yanjie continued, “So I thought about inviting you to go with me, and buy you a house by the way.”
Fu Yanjie knew how to return the favor.
Because before Jiang Xu asked Fu Yanjie to hoard several houses.
His parents were quite extravagant, so when Fu Yanjie said he wanted to buy a house, they gave him extra money to buy a villa…
Just those few houses would let Fu Yanjie earn at least a hundred million in the future.
So, after getting the family’s permission, Fu Yanjie planned to buy Jiang Xu a house.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu’s eyes lit up.
The feeling of choking dissipated, and Fu Yanjie seemed pleasing to him. He hugged Yanjie’s shoulders and said, “Good brother, for life. Fu Yanjie: “Two people under one blanket will not be warm in winter.” Jiang Xu: “Screw off!” Since they were all here, they decided to have dinner together. They cooked hot pot again, it was most convenient.
The hot pot, the more people, the tastier it was.
-Hey!” Midway through, Fu Yanjie sighed, “Thinking that we will be parting ways by next year, it feels pretty reluctant.”
Jiang Xu put down his chopsticks, “I have a way that you could end up going to the same university as me!”
