Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 36: The case is solved, Uncle, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person

A thought crossed Jiang Xu's mind, he asked, "Did your uncle come back yet?"

"No," An Nuonuo shook her head, "He called last night and said he'd come back today, but he didn't specify when."

Jiang Xu asked again, "Did those clothes get sold?"

"I don't know. Dad said we'll talk everything over when he comes back."

Jiang Xu decided not to ask anymore.

On their way back, he advised, "There are lots of bad people outside. You can't wear something too revealing.

For instance, if you're wearing that miniskirt, you have to wear stockings, understand?"

"I know."

Jiang Xu sensed that An Nuonuo's tone was slightly different from usual.

But he couldn't exactly pinpoint what it was.

Seeing Jiang Xu's comforting back, An Nuonuo gave him a tender look.

How nice it is to sit at the same desk with you.

While they passed by a fruit store, Jiang Xu bought some apples.

By the time they arrived at Nuonuo's house, it was almost half past eleven.

The moment they entered, they were greeted by the aroma of cooked food.

"Is that you, dad? You're back?"

An Feng cheerfully said, "Why yes, it is. Xiao Xu, come, sit down. Dinner's just about ready."

"So you've arrived, Xiao Xu." Li Yuanjuan came out of the kitchen holding a pot of soup, "It's just plain homemade food, don't be too picky."

Jiang Xu earnestly said, "Auntie, your cooking is no less than a professional chef's. If this were outside, this meal wouldn't come under 800 to 1000 yuan."

"You sure know how to sweet-talk," Li Yuanjuan laughed with a full-faced smile.

She was pleased with what she saw.

Five dishes and a soup.

Although not lavish, the presentation was excellent.

After they sat down, Li Yuanjuan put a piece of red braised pork in Jiang Xu's bowl, "Try the flavor."

"Mmm, it's fatty but not greasy, melts right in your mouth. Auntie, after eating your cooking, I doubt I can ever enjoy anyone else's."

Although he exaggerated a bit, it was enough to make Li Yuanjuan happy.

She kept putting food in his bowl.

This kind of scene also strangely made An Nuonuo feel happy.

Speaking of Uncle, were you able to sort out the clothes?"

Li Yuanjuan and An Nuonuo both turned their eyes to An Feng.

An Feng laughingly said, "All of them were sold. After subtracting the costs, we made a profit of 25,000."

After saying this, he couldn't suppress his elation.

All three were shocked.

Li Yuanjuan put her chopsticks down, "You're not joking?"

"Of course not!" An Feng said proudly, "Moreover, the boss told me if there's any more stock in the future, they'll buy it all."

Jiang Xu asked seriously, "Uncle, what's the boss's background? Is there something fishy going on?"

"Yeah, isn't money hard-earned? Could there be a trap?" Li Yuanjuan asked anxiously.

"Not at all, not at all." An Feng waved his hand, "To be honest, it seems like good deeds are rewarded.

You didn't know this, but the day I and some friends got off the train,

Not far from the station, we encountered a car accident.

The front of the car was spewing sparks, but no one dared to step forward.

I didn't even think about it. I ran up, broke the glass, and rescued the driver and passengers inside.

One of them turned out to be a big boss, who knew we were there selling clothes.

So he was quite generous and took all the clothes for 26 yuan each.

He cleared the payment on site, and said that as long as I went and sold them, he'd take whatever there was."

All three were taken aback.

This seemed a little surreal!

Jiang Xu asked again, "Does Uncle know the boss's name?"

"Hmm, it's Zhang Xiaohui."

"What did you say?" Jiang Xu doubted his hearing.

"Zhang Xiaohui." An Feng looked puzzled, "Is it possible that you happen to know this boss?"

Without realizing it, Jiang Xu straightened his body, "Uncle, can you describe features of this boss?"

"Hmm... she's quite tall, about 1.7 meters, very pretty and dignified. There's a beauty mark near the left corner of her mouth, and looks over forty."

Goodness me, Jiang Xu exclaimed internally.

It had to be her.

Zhang Xiaohui, who, in his past life, had been the wealthiest woman in the country for five consecutive years!

A legendary character indeed.

Rising from nothing, and with her husband having died at a young age,

She later used her abilities to become a mega-billionaire.

He understood now!

The mystery was solved.

It was no wonder that in his past life, An Feng's rise was so rapid.

Most probably, Zhang Xiaohui was backing him.

Nonetheless, he had no idea whether the relationship between these two was pure.

Jiang Xu had a hunch that, most likely, there was something fishy going on.

Otherwise, even though An Feng saved her life once,

This favor alone couldn't have propelled him to the richest position.

The most feasible explanation was that An Feng was capable.

Added to his having saved Zhang Xiaohui, and possibly, an emotional involvement developing over time...

Gotcha!

Jiang Xu, who'd realized the underlying reason, started to cast strange glances at An Feng.

I never thought you'd be a sponger.

Ugh!

How shameful to be associated with you!

An Feng didn't notice Jiang Xu's gaze.

Full of excitement, he said, "There's a large number of clothes left in the factory. If we can sell them all, we could make at least hundreds of thousands.

By then, our family can escape poverty."

Li Yuanjuan and An Nuonuo were extremely elated.

"We must drink a little tonight."

Li Yuanjuan got up to fetch some wine.

The couple got drunk after a while.

Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo helped them into their room, then cleaned up the leftovers.

The kitchen in Nuonuo's house was somewhat small, it was a bit hard for two people to stand.

Every once in a while, their arms would bump into each other.

Whenever that happened, An Nuonuo, as if electrocuted, retracted her arm.

Her lovely face blushed so intensely it might bleed.

She whispered, "You can go out, I can handle this."

"That's inappropriate. I can't just eat for free without working." Jiang Xu was serious.

In reality, he simply didn't want to pass up an excellent opportunity to grow closer to An Nuonuo.

In a confined environment, feelings germinate rapidly.

An Nuonuo lightly bit her lip.

She had a feeling that Jiang Xu was doing it on purpose, but she had no proof.

After several instances, An Nuonuo wanted to leave.

It wasn't like she was feeling repulsed, but rather she was shy.

Detecting her intention, Jiang Xu softly said, "You wouldn't abandon a guest to do all the work and go play by yourself, would you?"

An Nuonuo: "....."

She felt like she was greatly under the control of the man before her.

"Hahaha!"

Jiang Xu roared with laughter.

He stopped messing with her.

He washed his hands and left the kitchen.

"Phew!"

An Nuonuo heaved a sigh of relief.

Five minutes later she finished washing the dishes, washed some fruit, and brought it out.

Her rosy cheeks had cooled down, but she was still enchanting.

Jiang Xu checked the time, "It's getting late, I should head back. See you tomorrow."

"Alright, I'll see you off."

She saw him to the door.

Waiting for Jiang Xu's figure to disappear from her line of sight,

She turned around, locked the door, and then sneaked out...
