Chapter 28 – Chapter 28 Jiang Xu: You really deserve to die!
Jiang Xu arrived at the intersection and saw that An Nuonuo was already there.
She vigorously waved at Jiang Xu, her slender legs pedaling, running towards him.
Her bangs were blown up, revealing a face one would never get tired of seeing.
Thankfully no one noticed, or else there might have been a traffic accident.
“I made breakfast this morning. Let me know if you like it.”
An Nuonuo’s blushing face handed a bag to Jiang Xu.
Her bright eyes were filled with anticipation.
Jiang Xu opened it and a delicious smell wafted out.
An Nuonuo had made dumplings.
They were filled with chives and pork.
One bite and juice overflowed, the flavor was rich.
“Did you make these yourself?” Jiang Xu was shocked.
The dumplings tasted even better than the breakfast she brought last time.
“Hmm… How’s the taste?” An Nuonuo was quite nervous.
“Five-star chef!” Jiang Xu gave her a thumbs-up, “You’re the most beautiful cook!”
An Nuonuo laughed in delight.
Last night, her parents learned about what Jiang Xu had done.
They told An Nuonuo she should thank Jiang Xu properly.
Apart from making breakfast, they also asked her to invite Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie over for dinner this Sunday.
“I can’t even imagine how lucky the man who marries you will be.” Jiang Xu said, laughing.
An Nuonuo shyly lowered her head.
Her ears were burning.
In her heart, she wondered what Jiang Xu meant by what he said.
She didn’t even realize how she got to her seat at school.
It wasn’t until Jiang Xu gave her a White Rabbit candy that she came back to reality.
“Right, my father mentioned wanting to sell the merchandise in the factory.
The costs for each item of clothing are eight yuan, even if we sell them for ten yuan, we can still profit.”
Her family discussed this for a long time yesterday.
They think this might be an opportunity to change their fate.
An Feng wanted to use the money he had on hand to bring more merchandise from the factory.
And sell it elsewhere.
“That’s a great idea.” Jiang Xu nodded in agreement:
“You could ask your uncle to bring over another 500 pieces. We can sell them together.”
Selling another 500 pieces was the limit.
Jiang Xu planned to sell at the school entrance.
The school had about two thousand students.
Moving 500 pieces wouldn’t be a problem.
But he couldn’t do this every day.
After selling this batch, he’d have to stop.
Priorities needed to be clear.
He was here to study.
Making money was something for his future in-laws to handle.
An Nuonuo nodded vigorously: “Hmm, thank you, brother.”
Her voice was sweet and soft.
Jiang Xu’s hand trembled.
His deep gaze fixated on An Nuonuo.
“Wha… Why are you looking at me like that?” An Nuonuo was a little panicked.
She couldn’t bear the intensity of Jiang Xu’s gaze.
Jiang Xu shook his head, forcing himself to look away.
This girl’s charm was already so strong while her looks were still veiled.
If that veil were lifted, it would be unimaginable.
No way.
He needed to prepare a comforting mantra, it would certainly be useful later…
After the first period of class was over, Jiang Xu gave 2,600 yuan to Fu Yanjie.
He was so excited he hopped around like a monkey.
If it weren’t for Jiang Xu repeatedly admonishing him not to tell everyone.
Within two periods, the whole school would most likely know about it.
Hearing that there will be another sale, Fu Yanjie agreed first.
He had already experienced the joy of earning money.
Suddenly, he felt the spanking he got from his dad yesterday was not that painful.
This time they couldn’t use the custom-order method for selling.
That would be too hard on Fu Yanjie.
At lunchtime,
Jiang Xu took An Nuonuo to the factory to find her father.
They planned to get another five hundred pieces.
They wanted to see if they could further lower the price.
The longer these things sat in the warehouse, the greater the loss.
Finally, thanks to An Feng’s efforts, they got the pieces at just six yuan each.
Three thousand yuan.
This just about used up all of Jiang Xu’s money.
The goods would be delivered to his home in the afternoon by An Feng.
After school in the afternoon, the three-member group rushed to Jiang Xu’s house.
Without waiting long, the goods arrived.
Jiang Xu planned to paint half of the stock with various character designs from Naruto.
The other half would feature characters from Cardcaptor Sakura and some cute animals.
The Naruto designs were easy, but the female-oriented designs required comparison.
Going to the internet cafe would be too troublesome.
Jiang Xu furrowed his brows, “It would be great if we had a laptop; we could download the images.”
“I have one at home,” Fu Yanjie said, “My dad just bought me one not too long ago.
Top configuration, a fifteen thousand yuan laptop.”
Jiang Xu grimaced, “You’re really something.”
Unintentional flaunting was the most fatal.
Fu Yanjie rolled off to download the images and then brought over the laptop.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo could no longer help with what followed.
So, the two of them went to the vegetable market together to buy groceries and cook.
Jiang Xu stood at one meter eighty and estimated that he would grow to one meter ninety by senior high three.
It seemed that An Nuonuo had also grown taller.
The two walked side by side.
From a height perspective, they were well-matched.
An Nuonuo walked with her head slightly lowered, both small hands gripping tightly in front of her.
She was quite nervous.
Her mind was filled with all sorts of wild thoughts.
“Going grocery shopping with him, could people misunderstand us?”
“This seems like a couple going to the market after work…”
“What if we run into classmates?”
“What’s wrong, why are you blushing?” Jiang Xu’s words interrupted her wild thoughts.
“No…” An Nuonuo shook her head vigorously as if she were a rattle drum.
Jiang Xu did not think much of it.
They went to the market.
They bought some pork, meatballs, hollow greens, and eggplant and went back.
In Jiang Xu’s kitchen.
An Nuonuo pushed him out, “You can leave. I can manage, boys shouldn’t be in the kitchen too much.”
Jiang Xu laughed, “You’re so considerate, how about marrying me after we graduate from university?”
“Boom!”
An Nuonuo’s mind exploded on the spot.
Jiang Xu’s words were too destructive.
They completely made her retreat in defeat.
She didn’t know where she gathered the strength.
But with a sweeping gesture, she pushed Jiang Xu out and shut the door behind her.
An Nuonuo leaned on the door, panting heavily.
Crazy thoughts began buzzing in her head again.
“Why would he suddenly say such a thing?”
“Does he like me?”
“Or was he just joking?”
“What should I do if he confesses his love for me?”
…
At this age stage, girls had rich and sensitive hearts.
Jiang Xu just smiled.
An Nuonuo was too adorable.
Not at all the strong Nuonuo he remembered from his past life.
While she didn’t have the attitude, she carried a certain quality that kept most people at bay.
In this life, Jiang Xu hoped that she would always be this shy in front of him.
By six o’clock in the evening, the meals were ready.
An Nuonuo hadn’t yet recovered from his words and dared not look at Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu picked up a slice of eggplant.
After finishing it, he said something that once again had An Nuonuo in stitches…
