Chapter 178 - 178: I’m Absolutely Incompatible

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanjie’s eyes lit up like lightbulbs.
He nodded eagerly, “Yes, yes, yes, quickly tell me, Godfather!”
Jiang Xu extended his index and thumb, rubbing them together slightly, “Ah, I’ve been into gaming lately.
It would be nice to have a desktop PC with top configurations and a water-cooled case.”
“You rascal!” Fu Yanjie clutched his chest, “I have one at home that I bought with over 50,000 of my New Year’s money.”
Jiang Xu smiled slightly, “Then never mind, the exclusive secrets I teach you should be sufficient.”
“No!” Fu Yanjie held onto Jiang Xu, gritting his teeth, “Alright, deal!”
Actually, to him, 50,000 wasn’t much.
It was just that his computer contained lots of valuable study materials.
As well as lecture videos from teachers in various countries, many of which were no longer available online.
If he’d shown this at university, any of it would have been enough to have his entire dormitory worship him…
There were several terabytes, and it would be too much of a hassle to copy.
Jiang Xu broke into a smile, “All you need to remember is one phrase.”
Fu Yanjie listened attentively.
Jiang Xu: “Attack the enemy’s weakness with your strength.
Think about it slowly, when you fully understand, then you’ll be a graduate.”
Having said that, Jiang Xu nonchalantly turned and walked away.
Leaving Fu Yanjie there with a bewildered expression.
Seeing his best friend’s retreating figure, Fu Yanjie felt this man appeared inscrutable, a force to be reckoned with.
This boy, I should get close to him, not offend him!
Soon, Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie were also helping out.
An hour later, the food was ready.
“Cheers!”
Four paper cups clinked together, then they downed their drinks.
Jiang Xu picked up a skewer of grilled chicken wings.
It was grilled by An Nuonuo.
She added honey, which made it very fragrant and slightly sweet.
An Nuonuo didn’t eat right away.
Instead, she put some grilled leeks and a sausage in Jiang Xu’s disposable bowl.
Then, she refilled his cup before she picked up a grilled corn and ate it in a ladylike manner.
Jiang Xu spoke sentimentally to her, “Nuonuo, you’re so considerate. I’ll definitely be generous towards you in the future.”
“No, it’s nothing,” An Nuonuo replied, a bit embarrassed.
It was mainly because Fu Yanjie and Zhang Yuanyuan were there, which made her a bit reserved.
Fu Yanjie was so envious.
When could he enjoy such kind and gentle treatment from Zhang Yuanyuan?
All of them were young, got along very well, and had lots of common topics to chat about.
After Fu Yanjie ate a grilled squid, he asked, “Have you guys decided which university to apply for next year?”
Zhang Yuanyuan was the first to raise her hand, “Given my grades, I should be able to apply to a local university in Jiang City.”
Jiang City had five universities, one of which was in the top tier.
With Zhang Yuanyuan’s grades, as long as she performed consistently, she would have no problem getting into the top university.
Fu Yanjie’s eyes lit up, “We think alike. I also plan to study locally.”
In his previous life, Fu Yanjie could not be admitted to the top local university.
This time, Jiang Xu had given him an ‘opportunity’.
Coupled with his own hard work, his grades had increased rapidly, so there was no problem.
An Nuonuo said, “I want to go to First Academy.”
The First Academy was in the Capital City, and Jiang Xu remembered that the admission score for next year was 678 for science and 672 for arts in Jiang City.
It seemed that An Nuonuo scored over 690 in her previous life, which was enough.
This time, she would only score higher, not lower.
Jiang Xu added, “I want to go to Magic University.”
Magic University, one of the nine top universities in the country.
He chose this university.
Partly for its teaching quality, and partly because it was a conducive environment for entrepreneurship.
The business environment was excellent, there were plenty of opportunities, and chances to meet many influential people.
Fu Yanjie was feeling somewhat melancholic, “This means we’ll have fewer chances to meet in the future.”
He and Jiang Xu had been best buddies for years, and their bond was profound.
The thought of parting ways next year cast a shadow over his mood.
Jiang Xu thought it was unlikely for Fu Yanjie,
but still cheered him on, “If you work harder now, you might stand a chance.” “Yeah, I’ll give it a shot!” Fu Yanjie patted his chest, “My parents always told me to strive to be outstanding, and I think I can.”
Jiang Xu chuckled, “You’ve already accomplished half of that – you’re a colourful character.”
Fu Yanjie’s face darkened instantly.
The two girls covered their mouths and giggled.
Jiang Xu was actually very much looking forward to the university life next year.
In his previous lifetime, he had ended up in an ordinary university due to his complacency, missing out on wonderful opportunities.
This time around, he wouldn’t make the same mistake.
He had heard that university life was good, but he wasn’t sure.
Maybe he should discuss it with Nuonuo when the time comes…
Jiang Xu was contemplating whether he should travel with An Nuonuo to the nearby cities once their high school graduation exams were over.
This would strengthen their bond.
Deep City had a lot to explore, Hua City had a lot to eat, and Bowl City… well, those who knew, knew.
During this period, Bowl City hadn’t been cracked down yet – it was a paradise for men.
In his previous life, by the time Jiang Xu had learned about this magical place, it was already gone.
And Guangyue had become Guangyue…
Darn, he’d missed the betting fever there.
I’m totally against gambling and drugs!
The four youngsters indulged in barbecue while chatting about the future.
And their dreams of university life.
After finishing the meal, they cleaned up the trash.
Jiang Xu gave Fu Yanjie a look.
Fu Yanjie looked completely confused.
Jiang Xu was somewhat frustrated.
The guy was a blockhead.
Well, he would show him an example.
Jiang Xu took An Nuonuo’s hand, “Let’s go over there. You two head in the other direction.”
Fu Yanjie scratched his head, “Why do we have to split up?”
Damn!
Jiang Xu almost spat blood.
This idiot better not need directions on his wedding night.
Without further explaining, he curtly told Fu Yanjie to scram, and strolled away with An Nuonuo.
Leaving a bewildered Fu Yanjie behind.
Zhang Yuanyuan had figured it out.
But she actually found Fu Yanjie’s cluelessness quite adorable.
So, she initiated and draped her arm around his.
She was still shy about holding hands at this point.
If this were Jiang Xu, perhaps he would have already…
Moving to another scene, Jiang Xu was taking a walk with An Nuonuo by the riverside.
A cold wind blew, sneaking in through the collar of her clothing. Instinctively, An Nuonuo shrank her neck.
The very next moment, like a magician, Jiang Xu pulled out a thin scarf from his pocket.
Tenderly, he wrapped it around her neck and softly said, “Don’t catch a cold, it would break my heart.”
An Nuonuo was deeply moved.
She hadn’t expected Jiang Xu to be so considerate to bring a scarf along.
They hadn’t officially begun dating yet, but he was already making considerate gestures like these…
Given the beautiful moment, while An Nuonuo was still overwhelmed with emotions,
Jiang Xu seized the opportunity.
He gently laid his hands on her shoulders, and with a firm gaze, declared, “I will always like you, always, just you!”
