Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

“It’s all my fault.” In the elevator, Jiang Xu embraced the young girl in his arms, “If I had known, I wouldn’t have brought you here.”

He had originally wanted An Nuonuo to witness firsthand the punishment of the person who had harmed her.

But he had neglected the reaction a girl might have to such a scene.

An Nuonuo was frightened.

When the elevator reached the first floor, she still looked very scared.

Jiang Xu felt both heartache and guilt.

He immediately picked her up and had the driver take them home.

He turned on all the lights at home and told her all kinds of jokes.

“One day, Xiao Ming’s stomach was hurting, so he said to his stomach, ‘Stomach, please stop hurting.’

‘Do you know what the stomach said?’

‘The stomach said, ‘First of all, my name is not ‘hey,’ my name is Chu Yuqin…”‘ An Nuonuo burst into laughter, and the fear lingering in her heart dissipated a bit.

She reached out with her hands to wrap around Jiang Xu’s neck, her pink lips pouting as she said, “Let’s try not to let such things happen in the future, okay?”

Jiang Xu thought to himself that anyone who threatened him or his loved ones must be dealt with swiftly and decisively.

But An Nuonuo was innocent by nature, and it would be better to keep her away from such bloody affairs in the future.

He nodded and agreed.

After a while, An Nuonuo fell asleep.

Jiang Xu carefully carried her to bed and tucked her in.

He then told Liu Dahai to stop investigating Li Yan, but to keep an eye on his children still.

If Li Yan’s children became desperate and sought revenge for their father, Jiang Xu would have to strike first.

Having suffered setbacks many times before, he didn’t want similar incidents to happen again.

Later, Qiao Buwu contacted Jiang Xu, asking how he had considered the matter they discussed last time.

Jiang Xu made up an excuse to brush it off.

After all, there were still three days left.

Early the next morning, the two of them packed up their belongings and took the high-speed train back to Jiang City.

Jiang Xu had always wanted to buy a private jet, but funds were never sufficient.

That plan had been shelved for now.

Of course, there were jets worth millions or tens of millions, but Jiang Xu did not want those.

If he was to buy one, it had to be the most expensive and safest model.

If something went wrong with it, that would truly be the end of everything.

On the high-speed train, An Nuonuo’s hands were tightly clasped, looking very nervous.

Her lips moved continuously in silent speech.

Jiang Xu leaned over to listen and almost laughed out loud.

“Please, Bodhisattva Guanyin, bless us that everything goes smoothly and no problems arise.”

“I hope Brother Xu’s ancestors won’t dislike me, I will definitely be a good wife.”

She was simply too adorable.

Jiang Xu’s heart melted.

If it weren’t for other people on the high-speed train, he would have definitely held her tight and kissed her passionately.

At eleven fifty in the morning, the high-speed train arrived on time.

As soon as they stepped off the train, they saw Jiang Shan and Chen Yue waiting there.

Oh Nuonuo, it’s been so long, I’ve missed you terribly.”

Chen Yue was as enthusiastic as ever.

Upon seeing An Nuonuo, she rushed over and hugged her tight.

All kinds of warm inquiries and caring concerns.

She was deeply afraid that Jiang Xu might bully her even a little bit.

An Nuonuo said shyly, “Uncle, Auntie, have you eaten?”

Not yet,” Chen Yue shook her head, “How can I eat without you here?”

Jiang Xu: “Heh heh.”

“Heh heh my ass,” Chen Yue delivered a kick to Jiang Xu and glared, “What are you standing there for? Go drive the car, you have no sense at all.”

“…”JiangXu: “Six.”

This feeling of having all his parents’ doting affection stolen by his girlfriend was really… super spicy.

Jiang Xu went to drive, with the bodyguards following behind.

First, he took An Nuonuo back to her home.

Then, he returned to his own home with his parents.

All kinds of betrothal gifts, including cattle, sheep, pigs, and the like, had already been properly prepared.

The timing for this engagement visit was also particular, all meticulously calculated—you couldn’t be early nor late.

With everything ready, at twelve twenty, the family set out for An Nuonuo’s home.

On the other hand, after returning home, An Nuonuo was called by Li Yuanjuan to take a bath first.

After bathing, she changed into a very festive red cheongsam.

She also styled her hair up.

“Hmm, not bad.” Li Yuanjuan circled around An Nuonuo, very satisfied: “Dignified, virtuous, gentle, simply a ceiling-level existence.”

“Mama, I can’t bear to leave you,” An Nuonuo hugged Li Yuanjuan, her eyes rimmed with red.

Li Yuanjuan said teasingly, “Then don’t get married. When Jiang Xu arrives, I’ll

tell him to go back.”

“Don’t.” The words startled An Nuonuo so much that she quickly stepped back several paces, pouting, her face unhappy.

Li Yuanjuan laughed heartily: “Look at you, saying one thing but meaning another. Really, once you have a boyfriend, you don’t need your old mother anymore.”

“Mama, you’re really annoying, deliberately making fun of me,” An Nuonuo stamped her foot, her face flushed with red.

“Silly girl.” Li Yuanjuan stepped forward, affectionately stroked her head: “After you get married, you must treat Jiang Xu and his family well.

They are all good people, and I am not worried at all about you marrying into their family, but this belly of yours…”

Li Yuanjuan touched An Nuonuo’s flat stomach: “You’ll have to work hard. I want to be selling a grandson sooner rather than later.”

An Nuonuo’s face turned even redder.

Although she was also looking forward to it, talking about this topic with her mother still made her feel quite embarrassed.

At this moment, the sound of firecrackers rang out from outside.

Li Yuanjuan took An Nuonuo’s hand: “Let’s go, they’re here.”

An Nuonuo’s heart started beating uncontrollably.

Her palms were even sweating.

In her mind, she instantaneously recalled everything she had experienced with Jiang Xu, from the first time they met until today.

No sadness, only sweetness.

Suddenly, her heart settled down again.

The family of three went to the front door.

The convoy carrying the betrothal gifts stretched out far.

Leading the way were two convertibles.

Each had a person holding a bamboo pole.

At the top of the bamboo poles were firecrackers

They had been setting off firecrackers all the way here.

This part was actually optional.

But Chen Yue said that it was a show of respect for the future bride and it was a must.

“Oh, future in-laws, congratulations, congratulations!”

Haha, today’s a good day, please come in.”

Box after box of the betrothal gifts were brought inside.

There was nothing cheap.

All sorts of gold ingots, silver bars, and the like were carried in by the boxful.

An Feng and Li Yuanjuan exchanged glances, both seeing the shock and satisfaction in each other’s eyes.

The betrothal gifts were several times more than had been initially agreed upon.

In the details, you could see whether someone cared about you or not. There were a few more ceremonies to perform for the engagement.

After completing them, both families happily sat down for a meal together.

After the meal, An Feng placed a set of keys in front of Jiang Xu: “The new house in Jiang City we prepared for you two, visit when you have time, there’s a surprise.”
