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

Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Jiang Xu: Nuonuo, all these socks have been blessed… !

Translator: 549690339

“Waiter, bring me ten of these, twenty of these, and yeah, a lot more of these…”

In the women’s clothing store, Jiang Xu was buying all kinds of stockings rather extravagantly.

All the pieces that An Nuonuo supposedly liked.

Besides the typical white, beige, and black ones, there were also fishnets, knee-highs, thigh-highs, and garter stockings.

And then there were the ones with diamonds, alphabets, or JK-themed black stockings.

Jiang Xu bought at least ten and up to forty or fifty of each.

After all, stockings were consumables.

It couldn’t hurt to buy in bulk, they were sure to come in handy later.

Jiang Xu left, carrying a massive bag, under the somewhat unusual gaze of the shop assistants.

In a hotel private room, Chen Tian dialed Jiang Xu’s number again and, after realizing he’d been blocked, sensed that something was wrong.

Just then, his personal secretary rushed in from outside, exclaiming, “Boss, something big has happened…”

The secretary was articulate.

Even in panic, he quickly relayed the situation.

“What?!” Chen Tian stood abruptly, everything in front of him going dark!

When Jiang Xu returned home, An Nuonuo still hadn’t finished school.

Jiang Xu left the bag in his bedroom.

He then turned to his stock market records, keeping an eye on the Feixiang Company’s stocks.

As expected, they had plummeted.

He then opened a new tab for a news website.

No need for search.

The top news was about Chen Tian’s arrest, accompanied by two photographs.

One showed him being escorted into a car by some officers.

The other showed Feixiang Company being investigated.

There was no way out for Chen Tian.

As for Feixiang…

Jiang Xu shook his head regretfully.

He didn’t have enough funds right now.

If he had a few hundred million, perhaps he could pull off a snake swallowing a dragon, a real corporate takeover.

“Wait a minute!”

Just as Jiang Xu was about to shut down his computer, he suddenly thought of a possibility.

He immediately called Lin Nan, “Can you keep an eye on Feixiang Company’s stock these few days?

If you notice anyone buying significant shares at a low price, follow suit.

I’ll send you my stock market account number and password. If need be, you can take ten million from the company’s funds.”

Lin Nan asked, “Boss, is there a problem?”

Jiang Xu replied seriously, “I suspect that scoundrel Xu Kun isn’t trying to exploit Feixiang’s stock prices.

His real goal might be to buy out Feixiang at a low price.”

At these words, Lin Nan’s tone grew serious, “Boss, if what you’re saying is true,

then Xu Kun probably had ulterior motives when he joined our company.

After eating up Feixiang, will he turn against us?”

“There’s a high chance,” Jiang Xu tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table:

“Lin Nan, can you use your connections to investigate him for me?”

Jiang Xu was still establishing his business, and needed a lot of favors from people.

Lin Nan replied, “No problem, boss, I’ll sort it out right away.”

After hanging up, Jiang Xu called the head teacher again.

Unfortunately, he had to ask for a leave of absence again.

The head teacher was furious, “Jiang Xu, don’t push your luck. Remember you’re still a student.

Although you’re academically excellent, always ranking first in your grade each term,

You’re a superstar student, multi-talented, even writing novels, and… um, how long do you need this time?”

His tone lost its strength as he went on.

Jiang Xu laughed, “Let’s say three days first, I’ll let you know if I need more.”

The head teacher was at a loss for words.

Tomorrow, Jiang Xu planned to go to the bank.

The same one he’d taken a loan from, but this time to mortgage the office space.

The real estate boom was going on nationwide already.

Everywhere in Jiang City had been swept up in a fever for property speculation, and property prices had followed suit, rising uncontrollably.

Jiang Xu estimated that he could lend more money this time than he did last time.

The six million yuan that he had borrowed from Fu Xinghan, he decided to put off repaying it for now.

On adding the ten million yuan that he had transferred from the company account, Jiang Xu currently had access to two hundred and nineteen million yuan in funds.

If Xu Kun was truly intentionally lowering the share price so that he could become the largest shareholder of Feixiang Company,

then Jiang Xu would certainly have to follow suit.

Feixiang still had a solid foundation. With proper operation, there was absolutely no chance of a loss.

He looked at the time, it was already past three in the afternoon.

Jiang Xu went to the market and bought some groceries.

The weather was getting colder and having hotpot was the most comforting.

In Guangyue, the hotpot broth was always clear and the highlight was always the freshness of the ingredients.

Jiang Xu chose corn, red dates, and a few slices of fresh ginger for the broth’s base.

He bought mutton, oysters, abalone, and some vegetables.

By the time everything was prepared, it was half past four.

While An Nuonuo wasn’t back yet, he once again booted up his computer and used the time to write a chapter.

“Click!”

Jiang Xu’s ears twitched, hearing the sound of the door opening.

He had just finished a chapter.

He closed his notebook and walked out.

“Nuonuo, you’ve had a hard day today, come, come, sit down quickly, I’ll get you some water.”

He gently pushed An Nuonuo onto the sofa.

Jiang Xu brought her hot water, then earnestly fetched her some slippers.

An Nuonuo drew back her neck and looked a bit guarded: “You… aren’t you planning to do something bad to me?”

“Hmm?” Jiang Xu looked a bit displeased: “Is that the kind of person I am in your eyes?”

An Nuonuo hesitated for a moment.

Perhaps she felt guilty, she nodded weakly.

Jiang Xu:

He silently reminded himself over and over that this was his future wife, don’t get angry, don’t get angry.

Then, Jiang Xu stood behind An Nuonuo with a smile.

His hands on her shoulders, gently kneading them.

The young girl wasn’t used to it and squirmed: “Just tell me what you want me to do.”

She was already very familiar with Jiang Xu.

Since she saw through him, Jiang Xu didn’t bother to put up a front.

“Hmm, here’s the thing, it’s getting colder and I bought some socks for you. Can you try them on and let me see?”

After all that build-up, Jiang Xu finally revealed his true intentions.

Upon hearing this, An Nuonuo wanted to run away.

But Jiang Xu, being sharp-eyed and quick, held her down.

The young girl shook her head firmly: “I won’t.”

Knowing Jiang Xu as well as she did, she was sure the socks he bought weren’t ordinary ones.

How… how could she have the nerve to wear them?

Jiang Xu coaxed her patiently: “Nuonuo, these socks have been blessed. If you wear them, your test scores will skyrocket.”

An Nuonuo: “I don’t believe you, unless you wear them too.”

Jiang Xu said ‘ferociously’: “No way, I’ve already bought them, wouldn’t it be a waste if you don’t wear them?”

“Well… you can show them to me first.”

Jiang Xu immediately went to fetch the bag.

Seeing Jiang Xu carrying a huge bag, An Nuonuo had a bad feeling.

When he took out all different kinds of socks from the bag, An Nuonuo really wanted to run away.

Jiang Xu noticed her discomfort and didn’t make things too difficult for her.

He said: “You can try on the white and flesh-colored ones first, and the rest…after you start college.”

An Nuonuo sighed with relief.

That was something she could handle.

She picked out two relatively plain pairs of socks, planning to go upstairs to try them on.

Jiang Xu stopped her: “No need to go to all that trouble, just change here, I’ll turn around.”

However, what An Nuonuo said next left Jiang Xu struggling to hold back his laughter….
