Chapter 645: Chapter 645 These Women Did It on Purpose
When Jiang Xu arrived, An Nuonuo was being tormented by Bai Xiaoya.
Well, in the game.
A few people were bored, so they decided to play League of Legends.
It was a one-on-one battle.
The person who lost had to drink a glass of alcohol and get a turtle drawn on their face.
An Nuonuo already had three turtles on her face.
In the fourth round against Bai Xiaoya, she still got trounced.
“Gaga, you lost again.” Bai Xiaoya poured An Nuonuo a glass of alcohol.
After watching her drink it, she took out a brush and drew another turtle on her face.
“Brother Xu, help me~”
An Nuonuo threw herself into Jiang Xu’s arms, looking very aggrieved.
She had played so many rounds and hadn’t won a single one.
At first, Bai Xiaoya, Wang Xiaoyuan, and Zhang Yuanyuan said they didn’t really know how to play.
The naive An Nuonuo believed them.
Then, she got mercilessly thrashed by these old hands.
Now that Jiang Xu was here, she immediately felt like she had found her backbone.
“No more playing, no more playing, it’s too late, I’m going to rest now.” Bai Xiaoya yawned and turned off the computer.
Wang Xiaoyuan stretched and said, “I’m tired too, good night.”
Zhang Yuanyuan got up, “I’m going to get something to eat, I’m hungry.”
An Nuonuo: “…”
She realized that these women had done it on purpose.
Jiang Xu laughed heartily.
Seeing An Nuonuo pouting, he touched her head, “Next time I’ll help you get back at them, for now, go to sleep.”
“Oh, okay then.”
The two returned to their bedroom and fell asleep in each other’s arms.
The next day when Jiang Xu woke up, the first thing he did was to forward all the emails from Lifuzhen that he had received the night before to Ni Guangnan.
The person Jiang Xu trusted the most at the chip factory was him.
Even Lu Chao had to step back in comparison.
After all, Elder Mr. Ni was a true patriot; everything he did was for the sake of the country.
At the same time, he also had someone transfer fifteen percent of the shares of the chip and screen companies to Lifuzhen.
It was okay to take a little advantage.
But to renege on such a significant promise would be purely self-inflicted suffering.
Moreover, if Jiang Xu kept his promise now, Lifuzhen would definitely steal more top-tier technology for him later on.
The Sangsang thread had veered off to who knows where compared to his past life.
But for Jiang Xu, it was an enormous stroke of luck.
Today was the last day of the “Campus Hunk Competition.”
Early in the morning, the place was extremely lively.
The number of people who had come to the island these past two days had increased greatly and was almost hitting the limit.
Many people didn’t have a place to stay.
Jiang Xu could only arrange for someone to buy a large number of tents, to sell or rent out.
Now that it was summer, even if it was on the beach side, it wouldn’t be cold with a tent.
Most tents had insulation functions.
The ships transporting supplies to the island hadn’t stopped these past few days.
The traffic was frighteningly high.
And soon it would be the National Day holiday.
Jiang Xu had thought of another clever way to make money…
After the girls got up and washed up, they went to see the competition.
Jiang Xu didn’t go to watch; instead, he was dealing with company matters.
As well as making plans for Chu Youwei’s future.
Her personality was not suited for acting as her main profession.
Occasional cameo appearances, playing roles that fit her character and appearance would be fine.
As for singing, her voice could only handle sweet type of songs, which was very limiting.
So after much thought, Jiang Xu’s position for Chu Youwei was to be a streamer.
She didn’t need to socialize much, just face the computer.
After all, being a broadcaster will remain a lucrative tool for a long time to come.
The ‘school heartthrobs’ competition continued until four o’clock in the afternoon before it ended.
The champions and runners-up were finally decided.
However, soon after, Zhou Qingyue announced on stage that one week later, on October 2nd,
all the heartthrobs who had won places, as well as some with high popularity, would hold a concert together.
Yes, six days in a row, two shows a day.
One in the morning and one in the evening.
With the current hype so high, how could we not shear some sheep… ahem, I mean, how could we not seek more benefits for the fans?
And sure enough, both at the venue and online, many fangirls were thrilled to hear the news.
They then started scrambling for tickets.
By the time of the National Day holiday, the construction on the island should also be almost complete.
The reputation was already established.
Subsequently, several dramas and movies filmed here were about to be released.
As long as one of them became a hit, it would inevitably attract another wave of tourists.
From then on, as long as this island was managed properly, it would become another golden goose in Jiang Xu’s hands, bringing him a steady stream of income.
Having had enough fun here, Jiang Xu planned to return tomorrow.
Upon hearing that Jiang Xu was leaving, the daughters of a few business tycoons invited him to have dinner together in the evening.
Yes, just him alone.
Jiang Xu’s awareness was crystal clear.
These ladies, they must be planning something for the evening.
Like getting him drunk, or slipping something into his food and drink to knock him out, then progressing things to the point of no return.
If they were to become pregnant, they would then have a significant bargaining chip in their hands.
But Jiang Xu still went.
All those tycoons’ daughters were quite attractive.
Their looks and demeanors were top-notch.
Moreover, girls from such elite families were very strictly raised.
They wouldn’t mess around and were very proper in their behavior.
When Jiang Xu arrived, the ladies hastily stood up and sweetly called out, ‘Brother.’
Jiang Xu nodded, and before they could speak, he said, “I regret that we’ve met so late, sisters.”
The ladies’ eyes lit up at this.
In their previous encounters, Jiang Xu had always kept them at arm’s length.
Could it be that he had changed his mind today?
Just as well, they had also made up their minds.
However, Jiang Xu’s next words caused their faces to change dramatically.
“I feel a great affinity with you ladies, and so I’d like to become sworn siblings with all of you.”
“This…”
“Brother Jiang Xu, how can you…”
Why wasn’t Jiang Xu playing by the usual rules?
“How can I?” Jiang Xu said with a stern face: “Am I not worthy to become sworn siblings with you?
If that’s the case, then I’ll be leaving now, and let’s not keep in touch in the future.”
As he spoke, Jiang Xu turned as if to leave.
The ladies quickly stopped him, bitterly saying of course they would love to.
And so, Jiang Xu became sworn siblings with them.
This way, the ladies could no longer attempt anything inappropriate.
Just as they had finished the swearing ceremony, President Ma and the others received the news.
They couldn’t help but smile bitterly; Jiang Xu still had his ways.
Effortlessly, he had blocked any future schemes against him.
Reluctantly, they had to abandon their plan.
Two days later, in the afternoon, Jiang Xu and his group returned to Magic City.
Coming back to this bustling metropolis from the island felt a bit unfamiliar.
He had his bodyguards escort An Nuonuo home while Jiang Xu went to the chip factory to meet the revered elder, Ni Guangnan.
Upon seeing Jiang Xu, Ni Guangnan’s face bloomed with a smile, and then he said something that caused Jiang Xu considerable heartache.
