Chapter 64
In the living room.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo looked at each other, saying nothing.
The atmosphere was a bit eerie.
The look An Nuonuo gave Jiang Xu was filled with anger and a sense of being wronged.
She was enraged in her extreme anger.
Time rewinds to five minutes ago.
Not finding An Nuonuo downstairs, Jiang Xu had run up to the second floor.
Who knew that as soon as he got upstairs, he would see An Nuonuo actually mending clothes.
While she was working, her top was accidentally torn.
So, she grabbed a needle and thread.
She sneaked upstairs when no one was around, intending to sew it up.
Who knew that Jiang Xu would run up just as she was halfway through.
What happened afterward was predictable even for those without brains.
And so, the scene at the beginning unfolded.
“Ahem!” Jiang Xu scratched his head: “I didn’t see anything, after all, it’s so dark upstairs.”
“Stop talking.”
The girl’s cheek blushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
She did not believe Jiang Xu’s words at all.
All she wanted now was to leave urgently.
So, after saying a word, she swiftly left.
Jiang Xu felt that she needed to calm down a bit, so he didn’t follow.
Jiang Xu tidied things up, and then left for his family’s restaurant.
As a matter of fact, this should be the time when he should be helping out in the shop every day.
But he couldn’t, as he had many things to handle.
As soon as he arrived at the restaurant, Jiang Xu directly told Jiang Shan:
“Dad, how much money do you have now? Can I borrow some?”
Jiang Shan asked, “How much do you need?”
Jiang Xu: “Four hundred thousand.”
“Wait a minute.”
Jiang Shan spoke, then left the room.
In a short while, he came back in, dragging Chen Yue with him.
He closed the door as an afterthought.
Jiang Xu was taken aback: “Dad, what are you doing?”
Jiang Xu noticed the long wooden stick in his hand.
Chen Yue’s face was also grave: “What do you need so much money for?
Has Nuonuo gotten pregnant?”
Jiang Xu had a cold sweat, “What are you guys thinking? Am I really that unreliable?””
He realized that he had been too rash, without explaining clearly.
Thus.
He revealed what he’d been doing recently.
Including the money made from the novels, the sold copyrights, all of it was laid out.
Jiang Xu was satisfied.
The front of the house was located on a major road with high foot traffic.
If he wanted to run a business, he could set up a stand right at the entrance.
Then he walked into the building.
There was a small yard in front where he could park two cars.
The yard had a lot of weeds, showing that it had been neglected for a while.
He opened the door.
After airing it out a bit, he walked in.
The house was already renovated.
Jiang Xu did like the interior decorating style—simple and elegant.
According to the agent, the owner had originally built the house for his son’s marriage.
And he was planning to run a small company on the side.
However, he had come into money over a year ago and his entire family emigrated.
Having no use for the house, he decided to sell it.
If the owner was not misleading.
The materials used in the house which were intended for personal use were unlikely to be of poor quality.
It was fully furnished with all necessary appliances.
According to the agent, the furniture would cost extra.
An additional twenty thousand.
That was still acceptable.
He took a look at the second floor.
There were two bedrooms on it.
Each bedroom had a private washroom.
There was also a kitchen, a public washroom with a separation between dry and wet areas, and a bathtub.
Jiang Xu was entirely satisfied with the overall layout of the house.
After seeing the second floor, he came down to the first floor.
The layout and decor on the lower level were designed as office space.
There was a large open office area.
There were two long rectangular tables set up, providing workspace for six to ten people.
And there were two private offices, one large and one small, both having private washrooms.
The balcony area was also spacious, connecting to the living room.
If needed, the balcony could be integrated with the living room to increase the usable space.
After the tour, Jiang Xu found nothing to dislike about the house.
But he didn’t reveal too much of his emotions.
To the agent, he stated, “Everything is all right. Can we talk about reducing the price a bit?”
The agent shook his head. “Sir, I’m truly sorry.
The owner stressed that not a cent could be deducted.”
To Jiang Xu, the price did appear to be reasonable.
After all, in a few years, it would be impossible to get a place here without forking over at least twenty or thirty million.
Jiang Xu knew this well.
With external support imminent.
Jiang City would quickly develop in all aspects.
And in a very short time, it would rank among the top-tier cities.
