Chapter 63
How about buying a residential and commercial building?
That would be efficient.
I could even stay there overnight.
The first floor could be used as an office, and the second floor for cooking, living, and the like.
Considering the three-story house my parents bought, it cost over two million.
If I bought a two-story building with a slightly smaller area, …
One million ought to be enough.
As for the location, somewhere near the school would be convenient.
With a goal in mind, I felt very motivated.
Jiang Xu decided to write at least forty thousand words every day.
And after Fu Yanjie was rejected by Wang Xiaoyuan, he was inspired to strive for better.
He wanted to prove himself, showing Wang Xiaoyuan that he wasn’t a child anymore.
Maybe she might change her mind?
At ten o’clock that night.
Jiang Xu stood up, stretching his muscles and bones.
His whole body made creaking noises.
Today’s 40,000 words update was completed.
In a few more days, he could finish writing this third book.
And once he received the payment for it, …
He could add another three or four hundred thousand asked from his parents and then buy a house.
He shut down his computer.
Jiang Xu checked his messages on QQ on his mobile phone.
He found that the group chat was quite lively today.
Looking through the chat history, he found out that Zhou Qingyue had become an actor.
The news was revealed by Li Honghong.
In both the past and present.
To most ordinary people, an actor is an elevated, glamorous, and mysterious profession.
Many classmates in the group expressed their envy.
And quite a few people asked Jiang Xu what he thought about it, how he felt about this?
What could Jiang Xu think? He read the news on his mobile phone.
Fielding no questions, he was naturally very happy.
If that woman went off to be an actress, Jiang Xu really wished she could become famous, the talk of the town.
That way, they would never have to see each other again.
How great!
Many people in the group were complimenting Li Honghong.
After all, Zhou Qingyue and Li Honghong were the best of friends.
If Zhou Qingyue shot to stardom in the future, Li Honghong might reap some benefits.
Establishing a good relationship with her now definitely wouldn’t hurt.
Li Honghong was really enjoying it.
It had been a long time since anyone had complimented her like this.
She smirked within, Jiang Xu was blind as a bat.
Wait until Zhou Qingyue becomes a big star, you’ll regret this.
Jiang Xu didn’t pay it much mind.
After washing up, he went to bed.
At this time, An Nuonuo was also looking at the group chat messages.
For some reason, she felt a strange sense of urgency.
She was ready to go to bed, but put her phone down.
She pulled out the unfinished sweater from the drawer.
The whole thing was ninety percent complete.
But she hadn’t embroidered the pattern yet.
According to An Nuonuo’s estimate, under normal progress, it might still take half a month to finish.
“Didn’t you sleep well last night? You have such dark circles under your eyes.”
The next day.
When Jiang Xu saw An Nuonuo, he noticed she was listless, and her eyes had dark circles.
An Nuonuo shook her head somewhat guiltily.
She couldn’t let Jiang Xu know.
She had stayed up until 2 am last night, knitting the sweater for him.
An Nuonuo could not figure out why she did this.
It was just that, after seeing Zhou Qingyue might become a shining star in the future,
She felt a strong urge to finish the sweater as soon as possible and give it to Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu: “You rest some more, I’ll handle things here.”
An Nuonuo shook her head: “No need, I’m fine.”
Jiang Xu: “Really, go rest.”
An Nuonuo: “I can manage.”
That girl was sometimes so obstinate.
Jiang Xu couldn’t be bothered with the nonsense.
In An Nuonuo’s startled cry, he simply scooped her up into his arms.
Heading towards his bedroom.
“Hey, what are you doing, let me go.”
The young girl was struggling.
But she wasn’t particularly strong.
Her delicate face instantly flushed crimson.
An Nuonuo was very light and soft.
Holding her felt like holding a giant ball of wet cotton.
“I’m back…” Fu Yanjie who just came in from outside, chanced upon this explosive scene.
His jaw nearly dropped to the floor.
He dared not move forward.
Instead, he stood at the doorway, beating his chest and stamping his feet, “Oh man, well well.
I haven’t even held a girl’s hand, and you’re already exploring the ultimate secret of life.”
Jiang Xu put An Nuonuo on his bed.
Her big, watery eyes were clearly brimming with fear.
Frightened of what Jiang Xu might do next.
However, she was thinking too much.
Jiang Xu wasn’t that kind of guy.
Pulling the quilt over An Nuonuo, he turned on the air conditioner.
Then, he glared at her and said, “Get some rest.
If you come out before ten o’clock, I’ll make sure you regret it. Understand?”
The girl tightened the quilt around her, only her head was visible.
She lightly bit her lip and meekly nodded her head.
She dared not rebel.
She could only obey to maintain her life as it was.
“Hmm, good girl.”
Jiang Xu roughly ruffled her hair and then left the room.
Fu Yanjie instantly came over.
Jiang Xu saw sympathy in his face.
“What’s with that look?”
“Ah!” Fu Yanjie patted Jiang Xu on the shoulder. “You should see a doctor while you’re still young. You might be able to get treated if you don’t wait too long.”
“???” Jiang Xu was full of question marks. “What are you talking about?”
Fu Yanjie: “From the time you entered the room to the time you came out, it was only two and a half minutes.
If you assume it takes one minute to undress, then ten seconds to wipe.
And one minute to get dressed, then you actually only lasted twenty seconds… tough.”
Jiang Xu was furious!
His fists clenched!
So, it costs nothing to spread rumors, huh?
He would have demonstrated on the spot how intimidating he could be if the gender was appropriate.
Two days later, Jiang Xu had finished his third novel.
Lin Nan was amazed once again.
How did this young man get his typing speed up, huh?
The keyboard must be smoking already.
Jiang Xu’s first two novels were already serialized.
With Jiang Xu’s current popularity in the market,
Lin Nan immediately arranged for the third novel to be serialized.
Because Jiang Xu was such a prolific writer, and his works were doing quite well.
By the time the third novel was serialized, it was directly placed in the best section.
Jiang Xu once again proposed to advance the payment of the manuscript fee.
Lin Nan happily agreed.
Around five in the afternoon, Jiang Xu received the manuscript fee transferred by Lin Nan.
After tax, it was just under fifty thousand.
Added to what he already had,
And the money from selling boxed lunches, it totaled 650,000.
Time to buy a house!
Jiang Xu tidied up and left his room.
Planning to ask An Nuonuo to go meet his parents with him.
However, when he came out, he didn’t see An Nuonuo.
“Where did she go?”
She wasn’t in the guest room or the bathroom.
Could she be on the second floor?
Jiang Xu went upstairs.
He froze when he saw the sight before him.
