Chapter 332 - 332: You acted well, don’t act next time_l
Zhou Qingyue sent over a photo of herself in a very daring outfit.
How daring, you ask?
Well, the pants were made of pearls.
That kind, where each pearl is strung together with a string, and then…
Seeing the thing, Jiang Xu subconsciously covered his phone, looking around nervously.
Fortunately, no one noticed him.
He promptly deleted the photo right away.
Then he messaged back: “Are you freaking sick in the head?”
Zhou Qingyue replied instantly: “Ah, how did I send it to you, I sent it by mistake, please delete it quickly.”
Jiang Xu: “Nice acting, just stop it next time.”
Zhou Qingyue: “Hehe, you’re so smart. How is it, pretty right? An Nuonuo probably never dressed up like this for you, huh?”
Jiang Xu: “Let me reiterate, I will not leave Nuonuo, and there’s nothing between us. If you keep this up, I’ll block you for good.”
Luckily, it was An Nuonuo doing her makeup today.
Usually, the two of them would be cuddling together.
If Nuonuo had seen that, Jiang Xu wouldn’t have been able to talk his way out of it no matter what.
Zhou Qingyue: “I’ve thought it through. I won’t pursue the role of the wife, I’m willing to be the other woman.”
With your wealth, having just one woman is too shabby.
Seeing this message, Jiang Xu was utterly speechless.
This woman is getting more and more audacious.
Jiang Xu replied again: “Not needed, you better just stay away from me.”
If there’s a next time, once the contract expires, you can look for a way out.”
On the other side, as Zhou Qingyue read Jiang Xu’s latest response, tears fell uncontrollably.
Her shoulders shook as she sobbed: “Wahhh, I’ve already cast aside my dignity, I’ve done so much, why won’t you spare me a glance?”
Finally, at half-past nine, An Nuonuo finished her makeup.
She wore an extravagant outfit that completely clashed with her style.
Zhang Yuanyuan’s makeup skills were still pretty good.
It didn’t look out of place and managed to significantly lower An Nuonuo’s beauty.
But even so, she could easily be the school beauty at a slightly less competitive school.
“Let’s go.” Jiang Xu helped her put on the mask, draped her coat over her, and took her hand: “Off to make money.”
Thirty million in just a few hours, not even global superstars could necessarily accomplish that.
An Nuonuo didn’t mind looking uglier one bit.
She thought that as long as she could help Jiang Xu, it was enough.
They arrived at the school, in front of the library.
Many classmates had already arrived.
Because there were so many people, Jiang Xu, to prevent any accidents, had Yang Qi follow from behind.
As for himself, he stuck close to An Nuonuo.
He even brought along a bunch of little self-defense gadgets.
“An Nuonuo is here!”
Someone yelled out loud.
Then, all eyes were on An Nuonuo.
Followed by various comments.
“Hey, her eyes don’t seem as bright as before today.”
“Damn it, could it be that Jiang Xu, the old thief, bullied her last night?”
“To hell with it, kill Jiang Xu, snatch Nuonuo!”
“Kill Jiang Xu, snatch Nuonuo!”
Everything was fine before, but suddenly Jiang Xu had become public enemy number one among the male students.
Even with his guts, he couldn’t help but shrink his neck this time. These guys, always sticking their noses in other people’s business. She’s not your girlfriend, after all.
Zhang Yuanyuan and Fu Yanjie laughed heartily on the side.
It was rare to see Jiang Xu looking so embarrassed; it was really amusing.
Bai Xiaoya had arrived ahead of time.
Both were wearing masks and draped in coats.
They would only reveal themselves when the event started.
The two parties came together and exchanged friendly greetings.
Jiang Xu took the opportunity to ask softly, “Did your childhood sweetheart arrive? Where is he?”
He too was curious to see what kind of man could make such a rich local heiress from Magic City go to such lengths and even humble herself to pursue him.
“He’s here, on the left, standing under the pine tree. The one wearing glasses and a white shirt, much more handsome than you.”
Jiang Xu turned his head to look.
His gaze locked on the target very quickly.
“Huh?”
Seeing the man, Jiang Xu was stunned.
He looked so familiar, as if he’d seen him somewhere before.
After a moment of deep thought, an idea flashed through Jiang Xu’s mind.
He almost blurted out ‘holy shit’.
Wasn’t this Li Yuhui?
In his previous life, this man’s name was famous, reverberating through the tech world.
Li Yuhui, a godfather figure in the field of artificial intelligence within the country.
Abroad, artificial intelligence actually started decades ago.
China got a late start, and even up to now, not many realized the great potential of this field for the future.
But shortly after Li Yuhui entered this field, it only took him a few years.
Not only did he catch up with the international level of technology, but he also managed to overtake it in a very short period of time.
Not to mention the value he created, just the strategic significance alone was terrifying.
In his previous life, many were trying to dig up information on Li Yuhui but to no avail.
Including which university he attended, none of this basic information could be found.
There were only a few photos of him circulating online.
Jiang Xu hadn’t expected that Li Yuhui was also from Magic University.
This was like a pie falling from the sky.
Recruiting this big shot was like assembling all the great generals like Liu,
Guan, Zhang, Zhao, Huang, and Ma during the Three Kingdoms period.
At this moment, Jiang Xu was extremely excited.
This period’s Li Yuhui probably hadn’t entered the field of artificial intelligence yet.
The success rate of recruiting him should be quite high.
Well, Jiang Xu was best at enticing people with prospects.
However.
Jiang Xu turned his head and gave Bai Xiaoya a strange look.
In his past life, Jiang Xu heard rumors that Li Yuhui didn’t marry any rich girl.
Instead, he ended up with a young woman from a research institute.
Her thirty million might just go down the drain.
But Jiang Xu was still grateful to her.
If it weren’t for her, Jiang Xu might not even meet Li Yuhui until he graduated from university.
The school was so big, almost like a small town.
The competition began.
Bai Xiaoya had a small runway built temporarily.
Then she went on stage to deliver some opening remarks.
The main message was that it was all in the spirit of friendly exchange, and there would be no hard feelings.
Everyone present received a small card.
Later, they would all cast their votes.
Whoever had the most votes would win.
As previously agreed, An Nuonuo went up to ‘make a fool of herself’ first.
To disappoint Li Yuhui, followed immediately by Bai Xiaoya’s stunning appearance.
Perhaps Li Yuhui would think Bai Xiaoya looked better and reconsider his options.
When An Nuonuo went on stage, the applause was thunderous.
Jiang Xu noticed that Li Yuhui’s originally calm gaze lit up suddenly when he saw An Nuonuo.
His eyes were full of tenderness.
This was the look of a true romantic at heart.
Jiang Xu suddenly thought of a saying: the bike you’re reluctant to ride, push it
along, someone else might have already….
