Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Are you drifting, or can I not lift the knife?

"Stop it, sis, or the live-streaming channel will really be blocked," Jiang Xu said, completely taken in.

Such a young girl, her head was full of R-rated nonsense, utterly stupefying.

In the end, Jiang Xu, of course, did not accept her outrageous request.

Instead, he went to the kitchen and made her a bowl of tomato egg noodles.

There was plenty of food in the kitchen.

"Hurry up and eat. I'll leave as soon as you're done."

"Okay..."

The little girl obediently picked up her chopsticks and tasted a bit: "Hmm, this is really delicious, big brother, thank you.

If there is a chance, I will definitely repay your kindness."

Jiang Xu: "???"

I hope you mean to repay the kindness.

Only after watching her finishing eating did Jiang Xu leave.

He was suddenly in the mood for steamed dumplings and Hula Soup today, so he only made one serving of noodles.

Watching Jiang Xu's retreating figure, Jiang Xiaoyan had a complex expression on her face.

Then, she silently started laughing.

...

After having breakfast at a morning food stall, Jiang Xu returned home and started typing.

The first chapter, Fallen Genius...

After writing three chapters, An Nuonuo arrived.

She even brought a plump and freshly-killed spawn for Jiang Xu.

Spawns raised on leftover food were indeed the best.

"Thanks," Jiang Xu cheerfully took it.

However, the previously smiling An Nuonuo suddenly became expressionless.

Lowering her head, she walked into the kitchen.

"Huh?" Jiang Xu was utterly confused.

What happened? Why did she suddenly change her face?

Walking into the kitchen.

"Nuonuo, what's wrong?"

With her back to Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo replied, "Nothing."

Something was off about her voice.

Jiang Xu carefully thought back to their conversation; he had not said anything inappropriate.

Why was she suddenly angry?

Before he could ask again, his phone rang.

Lin Nan was calling; she had arrived.

He had to go pick her up.

"Something came up, I'm going out. Please watch the place."

Only after Jiang Xu left did An Nuonuo turn around, lightly biting her lip, her expression very complicated.

"Hey, we're here."

Outside the high-speed rail station, upon seeing Jiang Xu, Lin Nan vigorously waved her hand.

Jiang Xu rode his bike over.

Beside Lin Nan stood two girls who appeared slightly green and inexperienced.

Both wore glasses.

"This is Wang Xiaowen, and this is Chen Rongrong."

Jiang Xu smiled and nodded.

The two intern editors, having been told by Lin Nan that their new boss was very young, were quite surprised when they saw him in person.

He was even younger than them, right?

But they weren't worried that the company would go bankrupt.

When Lin Nan poached them, she assured them and even signed a contract.

If the company went bankrupt within two years, Lin Nan would give each person a one-time compensation of 100,000 yuan.

Lin Nan had kept some things about Jiang Xu hidden.

Or rather, she had exaggerated.

It was not about personal charisma, just pure financial capability.

After getting to know one another briefly, Jiang Xu called a taxi.

Speaking the local language with the driver ensured they wouldn't be cheated.

First, he took them to a restaurant for a meal and to freshen up.

Afterward, he brought them to the rental house.

After they put their luggage and stuff in order, they walked to the company.

All three girls were quite satisfied with the company's environment.

The second floor was not open to the public.

The first floor was spacious enough for the three of them.

The new office environment was great.

Then Jiang Xu called Jiang Xiaoyan over and everyone got to know one another.

In front of outsiders, Jiang Xiaoyan put on an act of harmless neighborly innocence.

Lin Nan and her colleagues took an unusual liking to Jiang Xiaoyan.

Jiang Xu thought to himself, if they knew the real face of this girl, they would probably run away.

This was a very scheming and neurotic girl.

After getting to know her, Jiang Xu assigned tasks.

Initially, they would only work on male-centric stories.

Later on, they would work on female-centric ones.

In the early stages, they also needed to recruit some online writers.

Tonight, Jiang Xu would write several outlines, and then have the writers write according to these outlines.

For the initial preparation, they needed a large variety of books in their library, otherwise, they would not be able to retain users.

After everything was settled, Jiang Xu went home.

It was now the afternoon.

An Nuonuo was quietly reading a book in the living room.

When she heard a noise, she lifted her head, glanced at Jiang Xu, and then lowered her head again.

This was completely unlike her behavior in the past.

In the past, whenever he came home, Nuonuo would always greet him with a sweet smile.

Jiang Xu sat down beside her.

Nuonuo immediately shifted her body away from him.

"Nuonuo, what's going on? Why are you suddenly angry without any reason?"

An Nuonuo kept her head down, remaining silent.

Her eyes were fixed on the book, but her mind was obviously elsewhere.

Jiang Xu felt a bit of a headache.

If she didn't speak up, how would he know what she was thinking?

He asked her several times, but she didn't respond.

Jiang Xu quickly stood up and closed the door and windows.

Finally, An Nuonuo spoke, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Xu pretended to be threatening, "If you won't say why you're suddenly angry, then I'll..."

An Nuonuo pouted, "I know you won't."

Jiang Xu: "..."

Had this girl evolved?

Was it him who had gone astray, or was he unable to brandish the knife any longer?

However, An Nuonuo did eventually reveal the reason.

"There's the scent of another girl's perfume on you. I don't like it."

Jiang Xu was taken aback.

Then he quickly understood.

This must have been from last night when he was with Jiang Xiaoyan and had accidentally got some of her perfume on him.

He didn't expect An Nuonuo's nose to be so sharp that she could detect it.

Hearing the reason, Jiang Xu was somewhat amused and simultaneously felt happy.

This meant that Nuonuo was jealous.

The excuse of not liking the smell of the perfume was total nonsense.

He had planned to tease her about it.

But seeing An Nuonuo's awkward expression, he decided against it.

Best to avoid inciting her anger, or making her feel embarrassed to the point of wanting to bury herself in a hole.

Jiang Xu said seriously, "Oh, I see. Yesterday, I was discussing website design with the second shareholder of our company.

We might have stood too close to each other, and I got some of her scent on me.

If you don't like this smell, I'll go take a shower."

An Nuonuo, who had been in a gloomy mood all day, immediately brightened up after hearing this.

It was evident to the naked eye.

She pursed her lips, trying her best to hold back her laughter. "Oh, I see, I'll try to get used to it...

Actually, it's not too bad."

Perhaps she hadn't even noticed herself, the change in her mindset.

Jiang Xu noticed it but didn't say anything.

However, it served as a reminder for him.

He needed to be more cautious in the future.

The same mistake absolutely could not happen again.

At night, Jiang Xu worked late until eleven.

He produced twenty outlines.

Ten urban, five fantasy, and five Xianxia.

He checked and found that the current popular genres still followed the simplest formulas.

The outlines he wrote were slightly more advanced.

However, he had only written outlines for a million words in the beginning, he would write the rest once the word count increased.

After checking and finding no issues, he sent them to Lin Nan.

He just needed to find writers to write, and a thousand words for five to eight dollars would suffice.

For this kind of novel, the writing style didn't matter, as long as the story was told well.

She could handle the rest.

After everything was done, Jiang Xu prepared to turn off the light and go to sleep.

Just then, Jiang Xiaoyan sent him several special photos.
