Chapter 223 - 223: The charm radiated in an instant is the most heart-stirring—1
“Oh my god, that’s too much, you are really going too far.
Fu Yanjie howled in despair.
Originally, he thought it was just a red envelope, at most a few thousand, ten thousand?
But when An Nuonuo took out a check of one million from the red envelope, Fu
Yanjie just couldn’t hold it together.
Who gives a new year’s red envelope of one million?
Fearing his brother’s hardship, yet fearing his brother would drive a Range
Rover, perfectly demonstrated on him.
Jiang Xu couldn’t close his mouth from smiling.
If Fu Yanjie wasn’t there, he would definitely have held An Nuonuo in his arms
and spun around three times.
This was really invigorating.
He had never seen a girl as capable as An Nuonuo.
Unable to withstand this blow, Yanjie covered his face and ran away.
It was only after Fu Yanjie left that An Nuonuo told Jiang Xu about An Feng giving her a company.
“Your future father-in-law is indeed very generous.” Jiang Xu said, stroking his chin, “Wait a minute, let me check.”
Although he said that An Feng would not harm his own daughter,
Jiang Xu believed it would be more reassuring after checking.
The result came out quickly.
There was no problem.
Jiang Xu was relieved then.
The scale was not particularly small.
An Feng’s eyesight was spot on.
For the next ten years, it was easy for women to do business.
All sorts of cosmetics, clothes, shoes, bags, and such.
As long as they look good and have some popularity, you wouldn’t worry about
sales and earning money.
“I’ll help you register an e-commerce account.” Jiang Xu said.
This was a time when e-commerce was booming, they couldn’t miss this
opportunity.
But he wasn’t particularly keen on opening an online store himself.
He could invest in Some? instead when the time comes.
He remembered that Somes’s first round of financing happened in 2007.
The second round of financing happened in 2010.
But the timing could also advance artificially, right?
After going to college and having spare money on hand, Jiang Xu could begin discussing financing options with his unwittingly beautiful wife.
Getting original shares was better than opening an online store, right?
Jiang Xu spent some time registering an online store under An Nuonuo’s identity.
The store name was Fairy Concentration Camp.
As for selling goods, they could talk about it after New Year’s.
“You have over ten million in cash now, right?” Jiang Xu looked at Nuonuo.
“Yes, a little over ten million.” An Nuonuo nodded.
She sometimes found it unbelievable when she thought about it.
“You are indeed a little wealthy woman now.
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but sigh.
She had five relocation houses, she owned half of the house they were living in
now.
She had a bit of Nuomimi Novel’s shares, a makeup company, and the rights to
a novel had been sold.
That was the sign of a true successful person.
Many people couldn’t earn ten million in their lifetime.
“To celebrate you becoming a little wealthy woman, let’s hug.
Jiang Xu stood up and opened his arms towards An Nuonuo.
■Hmm-‘
He actually thought An Nuonuo would refuse.
Unexpectedly, she truly dove into Jiang Xu’s embrace.
Even though they parted quickly, this was still a big step for them.
Then, An Nuonuo left with blushing cheeks.
Jiang Xu savored the moment, then continued studying.
“Martial Universe’s web game was considered a success in Jiang Xu’s eyes.
Even though it hadn’t been a huge hit, he was satisfied with the profit.
Next, it was time to develop the second web game.
As for PC games, Jiang Xu didn’t have that in his plans for now.
This thing required a sizable upfront investment.
Jiang Xu didn’t have much money on hand now.
Stability was still the best choice for now.
For the second web game, Jiang Xu planned to make a casual game similar to KartRider.
He wanted to innovate in the gameplay element.
The main goal was to diversify the types of games and to accumulate experience for himself and the team.
When they were in university, with ample funds and time, they could consider developing computer games and indulging in other forms of entertainment.
The time came for the morning of New Year’s Eve.
As per tradition, they had to take a shower and put on new clothes first. Around ten o’clock, they visited the ancestral hall to pay respects to their ancestors.
After they returned, they prepared to have their New Year’s Eve dinner.
Jiang Xu’s family typically made hot pot for the New Year dinner.
An Nuonuo and Li Yuanjuan also came to help.
Jiang Shan put the sacrificial offerings in the kitchen.
Then, with a big smile, he took out two red envelopes and gave them to Jiang
Xu and An Nuonuo.
“You two need to work hard to get into good universities.”
“Thanks, Dad.”
“Thank you, Uncle.”
Then Li Yuanjuan and Chen Yue also gave out red envelopes.
They were hefty envelopes.
Jiang Xu took off his jacket and helped too.
By two-thirty in the afternoon, everything was ready.
“Come, let’s toast to a Happy New Year.”
Glasses clinked together.
They started eating.
An Nuonuo picked the first piece of lamb.
She instinctively prepared to give it to Jiang Xu.
Because that’s what she often did when the two of them ate at home. But halfway through the process, she realized there were so many adults around and quickly retracted, putting the piece in her own bowl.
Chen Yue and Jiang Shan held back their laughter, their fondness for An Nuonuo growing.
“Hahaha…” Li Yuanjuan couldn’t help laughing out loud.
An Nuonuo suddenly wished she could crawl into a hole and hide.
She felt so embarrassed.
Jiang Xu, on the other hand, nonchalantly filled An Nuonuo’s plate with food:
“Come, eat more.”
An Nuonuo felt even more embarrassed.
The meal was very enjoyable, filled with laughter and cheer.
After the meal, a few of the women were busy in the kitchen.
Jiang Xu sent New Year’s greetings to some of his close classmates and teachers.
Quite a few people didn’t like their teachers, and often played contrary roles to them.
Little did they know that for many ordinary people, the best connections they could make in their lifetime were with their teachers and heads of education.
These teachers also had various connections in their society.
Anyway, Jiang Xu had a pretty good relationship with all his teachers.
Maybe one day these connections would come in handy.
Night fell.
Jiang Xu grabbed An Nuonuo’s hand and they left.
On the New Year, they were certainly going out to enjoy themselves.
The streets were bustling.
All around, raucous children were setting off fireworks and firecrackers.
Jiang Xu bought a bundle of small fireworks, costing one yuan for ten.
They found a spacious place.
An Nuonuo held one, feeling a mix of nervousness and anticipation.
She had never played with firecrackers during the New Year because of her family’s financial situation.
Every New Year, she would lean against the window, watching enviously as the children outside played.
As the firecracker was lit, it made sizzling noises.
The young girl held it while spinning around, a sweet smile on her face.
To make up for her past, Jiang Xu bought every kind of firework and firecracker available in the market, letting her experience them all for the first time.
Youth is about leaving no regrets.
Surrounded by dazzling fireworks, An Nuonuo was like a dancing sprite.
Jiang Xu took out his phone and snapped a lot of pictures.
All of a sudden, he had a realization: “I’ve discovered that the invention of photography is an impressive one.”
“Huh?” An Nuonuo looked at him, puzzled.
Jiang Xu explained softly, “Pausing time is a divine skill, yet photography has given us a glimpse of that divine ability. Love often arrives when you least expect it and beauty exists but for a fleeting moment. All good things come to an end eventually, but photos can last forever. Dusk preserved in pictures allows me to witness endless sunset spectacles from outside the frame. I love and hate the world, doing all I can to preserve those miraculous moments that will never be replicated…”
An Nuonuo stared at Jiang Xu blankly.
She thought he was incredibly cool..
