Chapter 463 - 463 Having a Backer Means You Can Do Whatever You Want_l
First to be awarded were the individual competition trophies and certificates.
On such an important occasion, both Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo walked on stage dressed in formal attire, draped in the national flag.
When the national anthem began to play, Jiang Xu couldn’t help but swell with immense pride and a sense of honor.
The second-place finisher, Zha Ke Bobo, did not show a hint of happiness on his face.
The prize money for Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo combined amounted to thirty- five million mei gold.
Following that was the team competition awarding of prize money and
certificates.
The national anthem rose again.
Throughout the two award ceremonies, the national anthem was played a total of three times.
Domestic audiences watching this scene were thrilled beyond measure.
The team competition prize money was forty million, split equally among three players, giving each over thirteen million.
Adding together all of Jiang Xu’s prize money, it totaled over sixty-one million mei gold.
Converted into domestic currency, that was nearly five hundred million.
Moreover, Jiang Xu’s prestige in the country had reached its peak due to clinching two championships this time.
All products under his company had sold out.
This wave of popularity would continue for some time.
The resulting earnings were difficult to estimate at the moment.
But they would undoubtedly be substantial.
What followed was the interview segment.
Journalists from all around the world swarmed in.
However, Jiang Xu only gave interview opportunities to journalists from his own country.
journalist: “Mr. Jiang, what are your thoughts on winning both championships this time?”
Jiang Xu: “I haven’t let down my teachers or the support of my online friends. Journalist: “Then, who is the person you most want to thank?
Jiang Xu: “Of course, it’s my girlfriend by my side, oh, fiancee, we’re already engaged.”
An Nuonuo by his side was blushing shyly, feeling as sweet as if she had eaten honey in her heart.
Countless people at the scene were stunned.
Where on earth had he found such a gorgeous fiancee?
“Oh, right, there’s one more thing,” Jiang Xu suddenly slapped his forehead as if he had just remembered, “Yesterday, I saw five kun women entering the rooms of those Little Hammer contestants late at night.”
“Wow!”
Jiang Xu’s words immediately stirred up a huge commotion.
The journalists from the Little Hammer became angrily defensive, asserting that this was absolutely impossible, Jiang Xu was slandering them!
Jiang Xu said indifferently, “I happened to pass by those five kun last night and overheard their conversation.
They talked about how each of them had contracted several diseases and wanted to spread them to more people.
Moreover, they even forged medical reports. It’s excessive.
If you all don’t believe it, you can have those three Little Hammers go to the
hospital for an examination right now.”
Hearing this, the three Little Hammer contestants’ complexions turned pale,
and they couldn’t help shaking.
Because what Jiang Xu said was true.
Indeed, five women had entered their rooms the night before.
And, in the end, two of the women even said it was better without protection. In the next second, the three Little Hammers scampered off as fast as they could.
They were heading for a hospital examination.
Seeing their reaction, even a fool could tell the truth was out.
The journalists from various countries burst into laughter.
The Little Hammer journalist, however, glared at Jiang Xu with resentment.
The bastard had actually spoken about it in public, clearly aiming to humiliate them.
After answering a few questions from the domestic journalists, Jiang Xu and his team immediately took a flight back home.
It was mainly out of fear that some individuals, infuriated by embarrassment, would seek revenge from behind.
After all, some people professed righteousness on the surface but engaged in vile deeds behind the scenes.
On the airplane, An Nuonuo’s cheeks were still red with happiness.
Being with Jiang Xu had made her life feel more exciting and meaningful. Sitting in the first-class section, An Nuonuo clutched Jiang Xu’s hand and did not let go.
Her eyes were also tender and affectionate as she gazed at him.
Jiang Xu chuckled, “Don’t adore me too much, or you might not be able to extricate yourself.”
“I love you,” An Nuonuo said softly.
Her expression was very shy, but her tone and eyes were unprecedentedly firm. Jiang Xu was stunned for a moment, then touched her head and said with tender affection, “I love you too.”
Lu Chao: “…”
I should be under the plane, not inside it, witnessing how sweet you two are… Not long after Jiang Xu and the others boarded the plane, a group of men dressed in black rushed into the airport.
“They got away!”
“Hmph, they’re just lucky!”
“Let’s go back!”
In a certain hospital in Singapo.
Suddenly, three cries of pain echoed through the air.
It was Pu Chang, Li Sanyuan, and Jin Dapao.
They had had their check-ups, and the results were in.
Each of them had contracted at least three types of X disease.
Moreover, they had already missed the optimal time for intervention.
What awaited them was endless torment.
Both mentally and physically.
Their families, relatives, friends, and neighbors would shun them like the plague.
Schools would not take them in, and they would undoubtedly be expelled.
By the time Jiang Xu and the others returned to Magic City, it was already past five in the afternoon.
To avoid being gawked at, they had all disguised themselves well. But as soon as they stepped out of the airport, they were still shocked. There were so many people outside that it was impossible to see the end of the crowd.
And many were holding signs.
They read: “Welcome home, heroes,” “Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo, you are the best,” and “Dream couple, making the nation proud.” “??” Lu Chao: “So what, am I just anobody, an invisible man?1
He felt deeply hurt.
After all, I also played a big part in this, didn’t I?
“Haha, JiangXu and the others are over there!”
A girl shouted loudly, pointing in the direction of Jiang Xu and his group.
Jiang Xu turned to look and was nearly furious.
It was Jiang Xiaoyan.
He had only told his parents and Jiang Xiaoyan about their return and had stressed the importance of keeping it a secret.
Who knew that not only did she not keep it a secret, she even actively spread the word.
A wave of screams erupted from the crowd.
A huge throng charged towards them.
If it weren’t for the bodyguards standing in front, Jiang Xu and his group would have definitely been knocked to the ground.
With no other choice, Jiang Xu had to take off his mask and greet everyone with a few words of thanks before they could leave.
More than an hour later, in a certain hotel.
“Ah, ah, I was wrong, big bro, let go, my arm is about to break,” Jiang Xiaoyan kept begging for mercy, almost bursting into tears.
She was currently pinned down by Jiang Xu with a joint lock, her face planted on the table in a very ungraceful position.
Jiang Xu sneered repeatedly, “So you took my words for nothing but wind, huh.”
“I was wrong, big bro,” Jiang Xiaoyan whined, “I just thought, you’re heroes who brought glory to our country, you can’t just return quietly.
An Nuonuo tugged at Jiang Xu’s hand, “Let go of big sister. Jiang Xu snorted coldly before finally releasing Jiang Xiaoyan. Once free, Jiang Xiaoyan quickly put distance between herself and Jiang Xu. Then, she took out her phone and threatened, “Apologize to me, or I’ll tell mom you bullied me and peeped at me in the shower!
