Chapter 76 – Chapter 76: Sister Is Really Accurate At Judging People

“I want to be your girlfriend.”

Jiang Xiaoyan’s tone was gentle, but it contained a sense of dominance.

It seemed like she was saying, I am not negotiating with you, I am commanding you.

Jiang Xiaoyan was a genius, the highest caliber of genius.

Every genius, after all, has some exceptional characteristics.

Just like Jiang Xiaoyan’s straightforward way of speaking.

Of course, she wasn’t like this to everyone.

Only for those like Jiang Xu, who Jiang Xiaoyan regarded as her equals, would she reveal her true nature.

Under normal circumstances, she acted like a well-behaved girl in front of her classmates or elders.

Jiang Xu shook his head, “Not interested.”

“Why?” Jiang Xiaoyan didn’t understand.

Her breath was fragrant as orchids.

Because of the close proximity, the fragrant air she exhaled wafted onto Jiang Xu’s face.

Jiang Xu, “You’re too smart. If we were together, I wouldn’t be able to keep any secrets from you. That’s no fun.”

Some women, although they look beautiful, are covered in thorns.

If you’re not careful, you might get pricked and bleed.

“That’s really boring.” Jiang Xiaoyan returned to her seat.

Her willingness to lay out her feelings was already a step back on her behalf.

Even if Jiang Xu didn’t agree, she wouldn’t cling onto him shamelessly.

Jiang Xu looked at her, a thought came to his mind, “From our conversation just now, you’re very good at mathematics. Can you program, too?”

“A little bit. I wrote about a dozen softwares and created a website during summer vacation.”

She said with nonchalance.

There was no trace of showing off.

It was as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

For Jiang Xiaoyan, it was indeed an easy task.

There was nothing worth showing off.

Jiang Xu’s eyes brightened.

He was currently worried about where to find a reliable technical person.

To set up his own fiction website, payment system, and anti-piracy measures.

So, he extended an invitation to her.

Jiang Xiaoyan was intrigued, “Tell me about the future plans for your company.”

It isn’t necessary to be cunning when dealing with smart people.

Jiang Xu told her everything he could.

Jiang Xiaoyan gave a slight nod, “Nice plan, I also understand web fiction.

It is straightforward, has a fast pace, abundant in content. Moreover, it’s low cost, and a good choice for most people’s entertainment.

Give me ten percent of the equity. Don’t pay me a salary. I’ll contribute my technical skills to the company.”

Jiang Xu didn’t mind giving ten percent of the equity.

The prerequisite was, he had to see Jiang Xiaoyan’s capabilities.

Jiang Xu, “Okay, then first you can build the website. It should be complete.

After I look over it and find no issues, we can sign the contract.”

Jiang Xiaoyan, “Deal.”

And then Jiang Xu laid out his requirements.

Currently, it was still the PC era.

It wasn’t until 2011, when the Fruit Four arrived, that the PC era began to decline.

The two ended up adding each other as friends. Jiang Xu then got up to leave.

Upon reaching the first floor.

He saw Wang Xiaoyuan ungracefully sprawled out on the sofa.

Her legs were stretched on the table. She was laughing foolishly while watching television.

Truly a foolish university student.

Still, her legs were quite long.

No, her legs looked round, or rather…

“Hey, hello.” Wang Xiaoyuan quickly got up.

Jiang Xu gave her a sharp glance.

What kind of greeting was that?

“Here, this is for you. Consider it a token of appreciation for your help this time.”

Wang Xiaoyuan handed Jiang Xu a hundred yuan bill.

“Oh, we’re all friends here. No need to be so polite. Are you treating me like an outsider?”

He responded like this, but his actions didn’t slow down at all.

He swiftly pocketed the money.

Wang Xiaoyuan asked, “Do you know what I admire most about you?”

Jiang Xu responded, “Handsome? Talented?”

“Wrong, it’s your shamelessness, extreme shamelessness.”

Jiang Xu became angry, “You are defaming me!”

Wang Xiaoyuan then took out another hundred yuan and stuffed it into his hand.

Jiang Xu chuckled, “Sister, you read people so accurately.”

Wang Xiaoyuan rolled her eyes excessively at him, “Enough, I won’t chat with you anymore, I’ll send you back.

I have to go pack my things, I’m going to the crew tomorrow.”

Jiang Xu asked, “Going to shoot a film?”

“Yeah.” Wang Xiaoyuan nodded, “I recently bought the copyright of a novel.

I don’t know if you’ve read it, it’s called “Youth and Sorrow” and it’s beautifully written, if made into a film, it’s bound to be a hit.

It’s a pity that “Those Miserable Years of Youth” was snatched by someone else.”

Jiang Xu’s face became extraordinarily weird.

So it was her who bought the copyright of his book.

Should he tell her, that he is the author of the novel?

On second thought, better not.

Not knowing would be best.

Otherwise, if she wanted to buy the copyright again next time, she might use their acquaintance as leverage, which would be troublesome.

After dropping Jiang Xu off at his house,

Wang Xiaoyuan lowered the car window, blew him a kiss and said, “I am leaving, your performance at my place earlier was great.

If I need you again next time, I won’t shortchange you.”

After saying that, she stepped on the gas pedal and left.

By coincidence, An Nuonuo, Fu Yanjie, and Zhang Yuanyuan just came out.

Upon hearing this, An Nuonuo and Fu Yanjie were completely thrown off.

Fu Yanjie rushed forward, looking devastated: “You two… did what?”

An Nuonuo instinctively clenched her hands and held her breath.

Jiang Xu replied irritably, “That woman is full of tricks.

She’s referring to how well I tutored her cousin.”

“Oh, so that’s it.” Fu Yanjie let out a sigh of relief,

“I thought so, how could Sister Yuanyuan like someone like you when she doesn’t even fancy me?”

Jiang Xu: “???”

An Nuonuo quietly unclenched her hands.

The tension on her face also gradually eased up.

Jiang Xu shook his head speechlessly.

…

“Ah, I don’t want to go to work.”

Looking at the keyboard with a face of despair was Lin Nan.

She used to be one of the diligent ones.

But now that she had decided to resign, she suddenly lost interest in everything.

She wanted to slack off.

However, there were still some matters left to resolve, and she couldn’t leave immediately.

Lin Nan glared fiercely at her work station.

“Stupid desk, why do I have to work on you every day? Do you like my big keyboard?

I’ll smash you with this keyboard.

Why is there so little pay flowing in?

Hmm?

Desk, fess up! Did your previous employees also… type as much as me every day?”

Just when she was lost in her thoughts, a call came in from a coworker from the finance department.

Lin Nan snapped out of it and quickly got up to go over.

It must be about the advance manuscript fee that she had helped Jiang Xu apply for.

Initially, Gu Li was not very willing to let it go ahead of time.

But with Lin Nan’s persistent insistence and nagging, Gu Li reluctantly agreed.

Once she transferred this divided manuscript fee to Jiang Xu, she could hand in her resignation letter.

Upon arriving at the finance department,

Lin Nan greeted a few coworkers.

Then she asked, “Currently, how much is An Ping’s manuscript fee?”
