Chapter 220 - 220: Lin Xiaoxian’s Helplessness, Easily Manipulated 1
“Sister Xiaoxian, are you busy?”
Jiang Xu made a call to Lin Xiaoxian.
Hmm, a little busy, what’s up?” Lin Xiaoxian’s voice was tasteless.
Jiang Xu was her love rival.
Jiang Xu heard the annoyance in her voice and brushed it off.
He laughed and said, “Here’s the thing, I’ve just launched a web game.
Not many people are playing it right now, and I want Sister Xiaoxian to help me promote it, with a real person’s presence.
I will pay Sister Xiaoxian fifty thousand Yuan as a reward.”
Lin Xiaoxian refused without a second thought, “Sorry, I’m not interested in exposing myself like that.”
“Alright then.” Jiang Xu said a bit regretfully, “I’ll just have to ask Nuonuo for help then.
Ah, if she shows up, she will definitely attract a lot of attention.
I may end up with a lot more love rivals.”
Lin Xiaoxian couldn’t hold back anymore and quickly changed her mind, “Hmm, I suddenly remembered that I do have some free time.
Tell me, what do you need me to do?”
Jiang Xu: “I’ll send you the link to the game, and then you just send me some pictures of you playing the game.
Then, I’ll post these pictures on the official website.
If anyone asks later, just say you have been playing it.”
The combination of a beauty and a game had always been a huge draw.
Jiang Xu knew that many games, whether they were recent or in the future, had lots of girls playing.
Such as the current game “Dreamworld,” and the future “Kings” and “PUBG” and the like.
And a portion of male users, play them just to chase after these girls. Moreover, Jiang Xu was going to reveal Lin Xiaoxian’s game ID. High-profile appearances in the game.
In truth, this game ID was played by a male employee of his company. Add a guild feature later on, where only female players could join. It provided him with another selling point.
Feeling frustrated, Lin Xiaoxian said, “Fine, I understand. I’ll send it over later.” Then she hung up the phone.
Although using An Nuonuo to manipulate Lin Xiaoxian was a bit underhanded, the result would definitely be outstanding.
After all, Lin Xiaoxian carried lots of halo effects herself.
She was a stunning beauty, a renowned school student, and school beauty. Adding all these together, the discussion heat would certainly not be low. Jiang Xu laughed to himself.
This, he called it using abalone to control abalone…
Just after ending the call with Lin Xiaoxian, Chen Yue called him.
“You rascal, haven’t you gotten up yet?”
“I’m up mom, what do you need?”
“Hurry up and get to Da Run Fa Supermarket, there’s too much stuff to carry.” “Alright, I’m on my way.”
Jiang Xu didn’t dare talk back to his mother.
Otherwise, the outcome wouldn’t be good.
He hurriedly drove to Da Run Fa.
Arriving at the underground parking lot.
He saw Chen Yue, Jiang Shan and An Nuonuo standing beside their car.
A lot of items were placed on the ground.
Jiang Xu parked his car, got out, and was shocked, “No way, why did you buy so much stuff? Can we even eat it all?”
He even saw that his father’s car was packed full.
There were only a few of them in the house, was it necessary to buy so much? Chen Yue looked deeply disappointed, “These stuff on the ground are for Nuonuo’s family.
Stop the nonsense and load them into your car quickly.”
Jiang Xu scratched his head, not understanding why his mother was suddenly angry.
But he obediently did as told.
An Nuonuo was embarrassed, “Auntie, actually, you didn’t have to buy so much stuff.”
Chen Yue pinched her face, “Silly girl, we’re all family now, don’t be so formal.” Jiang Xu realized why Chen Yue was angry.
She was blaming him for not actively preparing for the New Year’s gifts for his future mother-in-law.
Indeed, it was his fault.
Lately, I’ve neglected this aspect because of busy work.
After loading everything onto the truck, Chen Yue suggested a visit to Li Yuanjuan’s clubhouse.
Immediately, An Nuonuo became nervous.
That hadn’t been mentioned earlier.
The meeting of the two sets of parents held a completely different meaning. Jiang Xu saw her nervousness and, smiling, pulled her into his car: “Come on, let’s go meet your future mother-in-law.”
In the car, An Nuonuo looked uneasy: “Isn’t… isn’t this too soon?”
Jiang Xu chuckled and shook his head: “Don’t overthink, it’s just a normal meeting.
Can my mom force you to marry me right now?”
“I won’t agree,” the young girl whispered.
Li Yuanjuan’s second clubhouse was opened, and business was booming.
An Nuonuo called her and explained the situation.
By the time they arrived, Li Yuanjuan was already waiting at the door.
“Hello there, my future in-law…”
As soon as she got out of the car, Chen Yue greeted Li Yuanjuan enthusiastically.
An Nuonuo lowered her head, her ears turning red.
Li Yuanjuan was all smiles.
After their first meeting, she could tell that Jiang Xu’s parents wouldn’t be cruel in-laws.
That reassured her.
To avoid making An Nuonuo too uncomfortable, Jiang Xu helped her carry things off the vehicle.
“Ah, don’t be so courteous,” Li Yuanjuan was stunned.
Who would bring a whole truckload of gifts at a first parents’ meeting?
Li Yuanjuan and Chen Yue hit it off immediately.
Once they were inside and sat down, they didn’t stop chatting, ignoring everyone else.
An Nuonuo found herself feeling relieved.
She was worried that Chen Yue and her mom might steer the conversation towards her.
Before they knew it, it was mealtime.
Li Yuanjuan suggested they have dinner there.
She called to have a meal delivered from the restaurant.
Halfway through the meal, Jiang Xu received several photos sent by Lin Xiaoxian.
The angles were perfect.
Her facial features, body, and game screenshots were all included.
There was no denying that Lin Xiaoxian had good looks.
There was no beauty filter back in those days.
Jiang Xu sent the photos to the company’s programmers to post on the official website.
Once he returned, he would write a promotional text and post it on the game forum.
After dinner, Chen Yue invited Li Yuanjuan and An Nuonuo to have dinner together on New Year’s Eve, suggesting that they didn’t need to cook separately.
After all, they would eventually become one family.
Li Yuanjuan agreed with a laugh.
Upon returning home, Jiang Xu retreated to his room to write promotional copy.
Right now, there were not many capable hands in the company, and he had to do a lot himself.
After writing, he posted it on the game forum.
The operation was like before.
However, Jiang Xu figured he could only pull this off a few more times.
The netizens weren’t fools, and they’d see through repeated tactics.
After finishing his work, Jiang Xu checked the time.
It was three days until the New Year.
Other companies were already on vacation.
But his company was still on the rise, especially with the rapid user growth at this time.
The staff was already short-handed.
So, everyone had to work overtime during the New Year holiday. Triple pay, plus a thousand yuan per day in holiday subsidy. Many employees swallowed the complaints they were about to utter. They even made such touching declarations as pledging to live or die with the company…
Jiang Xu turned off his laptop, planning to have a life chat with An Nuonuo.
That’s when Wang Xiaoyuan called: “Regarding Nuonuo’s book, I’ve read it..
Let s negotiate a price, see if she can accept it?”
