Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, “Fussing over nothing.” As long as it’s not about asking for money, then we can still be good friends. He was starting to fear receiving calls from the likes of Li Yuhui, Lu Chao, or even Wang Zhang.

Every time he got calls from these guys, it was either asking for money or, well, asking for money.

Li Yuhui couldn’t help but chuckle, “Here’s the thing, I’ve brought in an unconditional investment of six hundred million for our company.” “What?” Jiang Xu looked astonished, “What’s going on?”

Li Yuhui replied, “I talked with the officials of Magic City and showed them our strength,

as well as the potential and influence of our super artificial intelligence for the future,

including the massive employment it could create, industrial upgrading, and so on.

Magic City officials recognized our project, so they have unconditionally provided us with six hundred million in financial support.

The only requirement is that once the artificial intelligence is mature, it must be used in Magic City first.”

After listening to Li Yuhui’s explanation, Jiang Xu laughed heartily, “Not bad, Old Li, you’ve got something there.”

This was good news.

It could reduce his own pressure considerably.

Just hang in there, and the future would be even brighter.

Around eight in the evening, the two arrived at Zhou Qingyue’s new house. Zhou Qingyue opened the door wearing an apron, with a spatula in her right hand.

Seeing them, she smiled happily, “Ah, you’re here, that’s great, no need to bring gifts.”

An Nuonuo smiled sweetly, “Congratulations.”

Zhou Qingyue cast a glance at Jiang Xu that was subtle, then ushered the two of them in.

The decor was primarily pink.

Jiang Xu didn’t feel much, but An Nuonuo seemed extremely interested.

It seemed that no matter their age, girls couldn’t resist things in shades of pink.

Jiang Xu silently took note of this fact.

“Feel free to look around, there are two dishes left in the kitchen, I’m almost done.”

An Nuonuo wanted to help out, but Zhou Qingyue pushed her out, insisting there was no need.

Tonight, she wanted to finish all the dishes by herself.

Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo casually toured the house.

This villa was not smaller than their own: three floors above ground, two below.

There was also a large swimming pool in the back, but it was not open-air, it was enclosed.

An Nuonuo said, “With such a big house, she must be scared living alone, right?”

If it were her, she definitely wouldn’t dare to live here alone.

Jiang Xu just shrugged, offering no comment.

They didn’t go into the bedroom.

After a brief tour, the two went downstairs.

Jiang Xiaoyan had also arrived, carrying many gifts.

Zhou Qingyue didn’t have many friends; it was just the few of them.

Their best friend from high school, Li Honghong, had long since gone their separate ways.

One had become a big star, the other worked in a club.

“Congratulations on your housewarming.”

“Ding…”

Glasses clinked together, followed by everyone drinking up.

“Thank you guys,” Zhou Qingyue’s eyes reddened slightly, “I toast to you all.” After saying that, she filled her glass with red wine and downed it in one gulp. Jiang Xiaoyan frowned slightly, “You’ve got something on your mind.” “Not at all,” Zhou Qingyue shook her head, revealing a smile as bright as the breeze, “I’m just happy.”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “Yeah right, you can’t fool me. Tell me what happened, maybe I can help.”

Now that she was partners with Zhou Qingyue, she definitely wouldn’t stand by idly if she could help.

“It’s a family thing,” Zhou Qingyue sighed faintly. “Ever since I got popular, my family hasn’t stopped asking for money.

One day they ask for five hundred thousand, the next a million.

They also want me to help relatives and friends find jobs, and they expect me to buy an apartment in the big city for my younger brother.

If I ever express reluctance, they call me heartless and ungrateful, saying things like, ‘We’ve raised you, and now that you have money, you forget about your parents.\'”

An Nuonuo opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say to comfort her.

This kind of thing is difficult for an outsider to comment on.

“I really don’t know how to deal with this,” Jiang Xiaoyan scratched her head and looked towards Jiang Xu. “Little brother, you come up with a solution.” Jiang Xu glared at her: “Who are you calling little brother?”

Jiang Xiaoyan made a face: “Little brother, little brother, little brother. Not happy about it? Come and make me stop.”

“…” Jiang Xu wisely chose to ignore her and thought for a moment before saying to Zhou Qingyue, “Your situation is pretty common.

If you don’t want to be dragged down by your family, the best thing to do is to set boundaries.

For instance, provide them with a hundred thousand a month, or some other amount you decide.

Apart from that, don’t give them a penny more.

As for your younger brother, when he enters society, buying him an apartment of one or two hundred square meters is fine; everything else is unnecessary.” “What if my parents make a fuss?” Zhou Qingyue pressed.

Jiang Xu uttered one word from his mouth, “Firm!”

Zhou Qingyue showed a contemplative expression and finally nodded. “I understand, thank you.”

After dinner, the four of them started to play cards.

They played until after eleven, and then Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo left.

Jiang Xiaoyan, however, stayed to spend the night with Zhou Qingyue. “Quick, quick, quick, to your room.” Jiang Xiaoyan pushed Zhou Qingyue, her eyes filled with excitement.

Zhou Qingyue couldn’t help but cover her chest with her hands, full of wariness, “What do you want to do? I’m telling you, don’t play any perverted games with me.”

“Get lost, as if I’m interested in you,” Jiang Xiaoyan said irritably. “You bought that super telescope, didn’t you?

And the house you bought is positioned just right to peep on Jiang Xu’s place. In between the two villas, the view is wide open—you must have a purpose for it, anyone can guess.”

At these words, Zhou Qingyue’s face turned pale: “No, how do you know I bought a super telescope?”

The moment she spoke, she regretted it, practically confessing without being pressed.

“Heh,” Jiang Xiaoyan let out a cold laugh. “If you don’t want people to know, don’t do it yourself.”

In reality, she had also bought one and accidentally saw the recipient’s name

on another parcel, someone named Zhou somebody.

That was a pseudonym Zhou Qingyue used.

Panic flickered through Zhou Qingyue’s eyes.

The current situation resembled that of a nerd, who was alone on the living room sofa, getting busy with an ‘educational film.’

At that precise moment, the door opens, and a relative arrives at home, catching sight of the scene.

Anyone with a sense of shame would probably want to crawl into a hole and hide.

That’s how Zhou Qingyue felt right now.

Although she had perverted thoughts, outsiders didn’t know.

Now that Jiang Xiaoyan had found out, her first thought was to silence her forever.

The second thought…

She knelt down, tears welling up, “Sister, I’m begging you, please don’t tell anyone. I’ll do anything you ask.”

“Really? You’ll do anything I ask?” Jiang Xiaoyan smirked devilishly.

She lifted her chin: “Tsk tsk, such a beautiful face, what a pity.”

Zhou Qingyue couldn’t help but shiver and a bad thought crossed her mind.

Could it be, could Jiang Xiaoyan be….
