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

“You caught on, huh?” Wang Xiaoyuan managed a strained smile, “Let’s not talk about that for now, we can chat after dinner.”

Jiang Xu nodded.

Then he felt two chills bearing down on him.

The source of the chill was Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhou Qingyue.

These two girls were still holding a grudge about Jiang Xu previously blocking them.

Jiang Xu felt a bit guilty, but not much.

Adhering to the principle that less is more,

he personally grilled some meat and offered it to them.

One could noticeably sense that the chill had dissipated ever so slightly.

The two girls were quick to anger and quick to forgive.

Before long, they were getting along famously with An Nuonuo.

When girls are together, they inevitably talk about clothes, makeup, handbags, gossip, and stuff like that.

Jiang Xu was neither interested nor had the time to listen.

Being the only male at the scene, he naturally took on the role of grilling meat and serving tea and water.

As the conversation flowed, the topic veered onto driving.

Jiang Xiaoyan, that super-experienced driver, plied An Nuonuo with a few drinks and then started asking her questions that made her blush and feel embarrassed.

Zhou Qingyue, on the other hand, was egging them on, leaving An Nuonuo at a loss for what to say.

In the end, An Nuonuo could only turn to Jiang Xu with a look pleading for help.

Jiang Xu just shrugged, indicating he was powerless to assist.

An Nuonuo: (> c)

Once they had nearly finished eating, Wang Xiaoyuan called Jiang Xu aside to talk outside.

Wang Xiaoyuan glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, then said to Jiang Xu, “Something big has happened.

Seventy to eighty percent of the artists and singers in the company have jumped ship.

Many key technical staff have also resigned.”

“Hm?” Jiang Xu frowned, “When did this happen, and why are you only telling me now?”

“A week ago,” sighed Wang Xiaoyuan lightly, “Originally, I didn’t want to turn to you as soon as we encountered a difficulty.

But later, when I realized just how many people were leaving, I understood the seriousness of the situation.

Then I coincidentally ran into Xiao Yan, who knew we were coming to Harbin.

So, on the one hand, I wanted to discuss this with you in person, and on the other hand, I had in mind to approach a coal mine boss I knew from before to see if I could attract investment.”

“Do you know who is poaching them?”

“I don’t know,” Wang Xiaoyuan shook her head, “Those who resigned would rather pay a hefty penalty fee than stay, and they’re keeping their lips sealed about their new backer.

Then I asked Liu Yue, and a few other small and medium-sized entertainment companies are facing a similar situation.”

Jiang Xu fell into thought.

Could it be another capital tycoon targeting him?

But he couldn’t think of anyone he had offended recently.

Jiang Xu felt that he had always tried to be on good terms with everyone.

In his previous life, such an incident had never occurred.

Otherwise, such a major event would surely have caused a huge sensation.

Therefore, Jiang Xu surmised that it was most likely related to him in some way.

Jiang Xu, looking at Wang Xiaoyuan’s furrowed brow, knew what she was worried about.

Yet he was quite calm, even offering her reassurance, “Don’t worry, sis, even if the other party poaches everyone in the company, it won’t collapse.”

“How can it be alright?” Wang Xiaoyuan said with a furrowed brow and a worried expression, “Right now, several filming projects ready for production can’t proceed.

Let alone the financial loss, the company’s reputation is going to suffer greatly.”

Wang Xiaoyuan was actually still trapped in traditional thinking, believing in the hierarchy of actor > work > market.

Jiang Xu had seen plenty of examples in his previous life.

No matter how big a star or how much money was thrown into a project, if the quality of the work was poor, it would still flop.

The most typical example is undoubtedly Uncle Dragon.

A global superstar who still faced failure despite all his fame.

He told Wang Xiaoyuan, “There are plenty of actors out there, just go to the major art colleges.

All of them are handsome men and beautiful women, decent actors, and they come cheap.”

A part in a play, the protagonist probably doesn’t even need ten thousand yuan.

“Even if the rival has more money, he can’t possibly poach all the students from every art academy in the country to our side.”

“Can that be the same?” Wang Xiaoyuan gave Jiang Xu a big roll of the eyes.

As Wang Xiaoyuan aged, gained experience, and amassed wealth,

she became increasingly charming.

Every move and smile was full of allure.

The only flaw was that her conscience was too small.

But it was enough to mesmerize many who believed in ‘the greatest virtue is like water,’ ‘great virtue carries all things,’ ‘heaven rewards the diligent,’ ‘tranquility can go a long way,’ a gentleman is open and candid,’ ‘silence is golden,’ ‘contentment brings happiness,’ ‘success will come when conditions are ripe,’ ‘civil engineering’…

Jiang Xu remembered he had already said similar things to Wang Xiaoyuan.

But he patiently repeated them again.

Thanks to the image of invincibility Jiang Xu had built up in Wang Xiaoyuan’s mind beforehand,

in the end, she was moved.

She decided to give Jiang Xu’s suggestion a try.

The two returned to their private room and continued to eat and drink.

When An Nuonuo saw Jiang Xu return, she was like seeing a savior.

She hurriedly added meat to his bowl.

During the short while Jiang Xu was absent, she had been subjected to various ‘interrogations’ from Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhou Qingyue.

They insisted on her revealing some ‘details’ about when the two of them were together.

She almost couldn’t resist spilling the beans.

The two women drivers were very displeased to see Jiang Xu return,

as they were just about to find out some explosive information.

Jiang Xu looked at the meat in his bowl and asked, “Are there any mines?”

“Ah?” An Nuonuo was stunned: “What mines?”

The other three girls also looked at him strangely.

Jiang Xu said with a smile, “I fancy mines.”

An Nuonuo blushed.

The other three girls: XX (“—-“J XX !

After despising him, the three girls all became envious of An Nuonuo.

They also wanted such a good boyfriend.

To avoid adding to her own troubles, Zhou Qjngyue decisively changed the subject, “Do you guys think there is such a thing as pure friendship in this world?”

Jiang Xiaoyan said, “No.”

Wang Xiaoyuan: “I think there is.”

An Nuonuo also nodded, saying there should be.

Only Jiang Xu shook his head, “There might be no free ultrasound at the hospital, but pure friendship exists.”

An Nuonuo:”???“

Wang Xiaoyuan, Zhou Qingyue, and Jiang Xiaoyan all gave Jiang Xu a thumbs-up: “Smooth.”

This isn’t the bus to kindergarten, let me off.

“What do you mean?” An Nuonuo blinked her innocent big eyes, very confused.

She was the type who was taught a lot by Jiang Xu, but learned little and had poor comprehension.

Unlike the three sisters sitting opposite her.

They didn’t know about practical application, but their theoretical knowledge was incredibly rich.

Three large question marks appeared above An Nuonuo’s head.

She didn’t understand at all what they were laughing about.

Forget it, let’s just eat.

After eating their fill, Jiang Xiaoyan suggested going to a hot spring.

She wanted one of those large pools that everyone could soak in together.

She said it would enhance the group’s bond and encourage Jiang Xu to join.

Jiang Xu thought to himself, you’re plotting so loudly that even the freshly-hatched lad Kun Ge could hear you.

Naturally, Jiang Xu shook his head in refusal.

Jiang Xiaoyan deliberately provoked him, “Scared? Are you afraid we’ll see that you’re ‘little’?”

Zhou Qingyue added insult to injury, “Don’t worry, being little is cute too.”
