Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Jiang Xu: But he gave more than youi
Translator: 549690339
“Splash!”
Jiang Xu stood up from the bathtub and walked over to the washing machine.
On top of it, there were two pieces of clothing with very little fabric.
One white, and one pink.
Those definitely weren’t his.
He was a grown man – he wouldn’t wear something like that.
Those were certainly An Nuonuo’s.
Thinking about this, Jiang Xu picked up one of the garments, spreading it out.
There was a depiction of Pikachu on it, looking incredibly cute.
It was very thin, just like paper.
Additionally, it felt a lot better than paper.
Instantly, Jiang Xu’s imagination was sparked.
Another phrase came to mind: paper talks…
Meanwhile, An Nuonuo was making the bed arrangement for Jiang Xu, covering it with sheets and blankets.
She brushed a few loose strands of hair away from her forehead.
Suddenly, her petite body trembled.
Without any hesitation, she turned around and ran towards the bathroom door.
She was about to knock on the door.
However, she halted her hand right before it was about to touch the door.
Anxiety and shyness took over her exquisite face.
Her gaze held a trace of despair as she mumbled to herself, “Please… don’t see it.”
She had been doing laundry on the second floor earlier.
Upon realizing she had run out of laundry detergent when two pieces of clothing remained, she had brought them downstairs.
And then, she had started preparing bathwater for Jiang Xu.
She had casually left the clothes on top of the washing machine, but later forgot about them.
“Huff, huff, huff…”
An Nuonuo took several deep breaths, attempting to calm herself down a bit.
Let’s think positively. Jiang Xu may not necessarily see the clothes.
Assured by this thought, An Nuonuo sat down in the living room, but her sight stayed glued to the bathroom doorway.
Inside the bathroom, Jiang Xu was also facing a moral dilemma.
In the end, he decided to be an upright person.
He put the clothes back where they were and mumbled to himself, “Old brother, hold on. You don’t eat raw stuff like this. You’ll have a feast in the future…”
After soaking in the bath, Jiang Xu merely felt extremely comfortable, and he casually brushed his teeth before getting dressed and going out.
Upon seeing Jiang Xu come out, An Nuonuo instinctively clenched her fists.
She stood up: “I, uh, I’ll go do your laundry.”
Jiang Xu nodded: “Thank you.”
He naturally guessed that the young lady must have been careless, causing her to leave her clothing on the washing machine.
In order to prevent An Nuonuo from feeling embarrassed, Jiang Xu directly tossed his clothes by the bathtub.
This way, she would assume that Jiang Xu didn’t see that…
Nevertheless, he still underestimated An Nuonuo’s intellect.
When she entered the bathroom and saw Jiang Xu’s clothes on the floor, she couldn’t resist covering her face.
Low groans slipped from her mouth.
This wasn’t her first time doing Jiang Xu’s laundry.
Because she thought some of his clothes were quite expensive, and it would be best not to wash them in the washing machine.
Jiang Xu would always place his clothes on the washing machine.
But this time, he had unusually left it on the floor.
If Jiang Xu had left them on the washing machine, An Nuonuo would have assumed he hadn’t seen them.
“It’s all over now, I can’t show my face anymore.”
The young girl once again experienced the meaning of embarrassment to the point of picking her feet.
She washed Jiang Xu’s clothes as fast as she could, then collecting her own, she bolted upstairs.
“Hey, Nuonuo, we…”
Jiang Xu in the living room was just about to invite An Nuonuo to watch TV together.
Yet, she was running faster than a rabbit.
Instantly, the key point occurred to him.
The majority bet, the girl had noticed.
But Jiang Xu seemed calm.
I didn’t do anything bad with your…’
At half past nine in the evening, Jiang Xu turned on his computer.
Xu Kun had made his move.
Online, there had already been a proliferation of news about Feixiang acquiring Nuomi.
The photographs of their meeting had also been posted.
On Chen Tian’s side, naturally, there were professionals who would inform him daily about news related to the company.
When Chen Tian found out, his first reaction was that Jiang Xu was trying to trap him.
But soon, he received news about Jiang Xu meeting with other novel website owners in Jiang City that day.
This suspicion was significantly alleviated.
He mumbled to himself, “This guy, he wouldn’t be so ruthless, would he?”
Right as he was thinking this, Jiang Xu called him.
“Mr. Chen, I hope I’m not disturbing you?”
“Haha, not at all, I’m reading.”
A well-known actress lying next to him, involuntarily rolled her eyes at this.
“Well, it so happened that I met Mr. Zhang from the Cat Network today, and we casually talked about selling websites.
Mr. Zhang is quite interested in the Nuomi Website and the price he offered is slightly higher…”
Chen Tian immediately became nervous, “How much higher?”
“Five million.”
Chen Tian relaxed slightly, then said, “Jiang, this isn’t fair, we had an agreement.”
Jiang Xu: “But he’s offering more than you.”
Chen Tian: “In business, nothing is more important than integrity. How will you survive in the future with such a behavior?”
Jiang Xu: “But he’s offering more than you.”
Chen Tian: “This could severely damage your reputation in the future.”
Jiang Xu: “But he’s offering more than you.”
Chen Tian, now furious, said, “Fine, I’ll add another six million.”
“Hehe.” Jiang Xu laughed: “Good, then our cooperation continues, and we’ll sign the contract the day after tomorrow.”
After ending the call, Chen Tian had eliminated 90% of the doubts in his mind.
Then, he instructed his secretary to keep a close eye on Jiang Xu.
If there were any changes, he should be notified immediately.
After hanging up, Chen Tian’s secretary then called Xu Kun…
Well, informants were everywhere.
As long as the benefits were substantial enough.
Jiang Xu had taken three days off this time.
When he woke up the next day, it was already eight o’clock.
An Nuonuo had gone to school.
After freshening up a bit, he left for the high-speed rail station in a taxi.
He was heading to a filming base in Deep City today to finish shooting the scenes for “Overbearing CEO, Gentle Love”.
He had already informed Wang Xiaoyuan in advance.
Around noon, Jiang Xu arrived at the entrance of the filming base.
In his hands were two meat buns and a cup of milk tea.
After finishing his meal, he called Wang Xiaoyuan.
Soon after, Wang Xiaoyuan hurriedly walked out.
Jiang Xu was shocked by how she looked.
She had lost a lot of weight, her face lacked any fat.
“Sister Xiaoyuan, how many hours a day are you working?”
Wang Xiaoyuan pulled him inside, “We’ll talk about this later, it’s almost time for you to shoot, hurry up and do the makeup.”
Jiang Xu:”…”
It seemed her home’s circumstances were not optimistic, hence she was rushing the progress?
His role didn’t require much makeup.
Just a costume change and a mask.
Being the author of the book, he knew the script well and acted with ease.
All his scenes were completed in just over ten hours.
When they wrapped for the day, it was already past midnight.
Even Jiang Xu was struggling, yet Wang Xiaoyuan was still working.
After trying to persuade her multiple times without success,
Jiang Xu shook his head, and went out to buy her some food.
Just as he was leaving the filming base, Jiang Xu bumped into a familiar face….
