Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Wait until I remove the seal, then you’ll know what cruelty is

Provocation!

This was a profound provocation aimed at Jiang Xu.

How could such a grown man bear such provocation?

He glared maliciously at Jiang Xiaoyan and said, “Good, remember the words you’ve said today and the date.

Wait until I graduate from high school, lift the seal, and let you know what cruelty is.”

Jiang Xiaoyan curled her lips, “I’m not afraid, you’re just a bad guy, I’m done with you.”

Annoyed, she flung her hands and went back to her room.

Instigator, exposed.

Jiang Xu went back to his room and typed for a while.

Then he went online to check the box office of “Those Years”.

A bit of a surprise.

It had already made twenty-two million.

Major platforms had quite good evaluations of this film.

The box office was continually skyrocketing.

Several professional agencies

even predicted a box office of up to sixty to seventy million.

For a low-cost project,

without any famous stars, that was already impressive.

But the film had only made the female lead, Zhou Qingyue, famous.

The male lead, despite being fairly handsome,

was a newbie, his acting skills were completely overshadowed by Zhou Qingyue’s.

He couldn’t compete with the veteran actors, but he was enough to overshadow the new male actors.

This was the result of Zhou Qingyue’s hard work.

Jiang Xu checked her Weibo fans again.

My goodness, she already had five hundred thousand.

For a newbie, this was an explosive achievement.

But of course, the credit probably goes to her entertainment company promoting her.

Jiang Xu didn’t actually care if Zhou Qingyue could become popular.

What he cared about was how much profit this movie would ultimately bring him.

If the agency’s predictions were correct,

the ultimate box office would reach seventy million.

Therefore, after subtracting all kinds of channel shares, the net profit would be around twenty-five million.

Would he then get a before-tax sum of two and a-half million?

Jiang Xu pondered this silently.

Right.

When the movie goes offline,

the portion of profit belonging to him will be deposited into his account.

At that time, the Nuomimi Novel website could officially go online.

By then, the library would at least have a thousand books with over a million words each.

It could support the operations and retain the readers.

Turning off the lights to sleep.

Good.

After being warned, Jiang Xiaoyan did not make trouble that night.

I wonder if it could continue.

Then came Monday.

After having lunch with An Nuonuo at noon after class, Jiang Xu went out alone.

The house he’d bought from Li Honghong before had been built already.

It was supposed to be ready before the semester started.

But unfortunately, one of the workers had an emergency at home and left early,

so the project was delayed quite a bit.

When Jiang Xu went over, he took some drinks and a few packs of cigarettes.

He briefly inspected it.

He chatted with the workers for a while, then let them go.

His assets increased once again.

The exterior was quite ugly.

But not for long, it would soon turn into blocks of gold.

After admiring it for a while, Jiang Xu returned to school.

After school in the afternoon, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo were laughing and chatting as they pushed their bikes out of school.

Jiang Xu said, “Did you know that someone in our school created a Beauty Rankings list and you’re at the top of it, the school beauty.”

This incident had happened a few days ago.

But Jiang Xu only knew about it in the afternoon.

Normally, female students would be very excited upon hearing such news.

But An Nuonuo didn’t show much emotion.

She even seemed a bit uncomfortable.

She was not a girl who liked to attract attention.

An Nuonuo smoothed a few strands of hair from her temples: “We still have time, let’s go buy some roasted sausages, my treat.”

Jiang Xu: “Sounds good.”

What they didn’t notice was…

On the street opposite the school, a humble sedan was parked.

In it sat a man and a woman.

The woman was Zhang Xiaohui.

The man was quite a handsome young man.

Zhang Xiaohui pointed to An Nuonuo not far away: “That’s her.”

The young man lit up: “A remarkably beautiful girl, unlike any I’ve seen.”

Zhang Xiaohui said, “Her name is An Nuonuo.

If you can win her over,

and convince her to study abroad with you, I’ll give you a reward of five hundred thousand.

This, is your advance.”

With that,

Zhang Xiaohui handed the young man a black bag.

The young man opened the bag and carefully counted.

Then he cracked a grin: “Rest assured, I’ll complete the mission.

I pride myself a pro at relationships, never failed.”

Zhang Xiaohui nodded: “Looking forward then to your good news.

The admission procedures and such, I’ve prepared for you.

You can come to school tomorrow.

Remember your role: a wealthy aristocrat, rich second-generation, pure-hearted boy.”

“OK, I got it. See you.”

After he said that, he got off her car.

Zhang Xiaohui watched the direction where An Nuonuo vanished, murmuring:

“Don’t blame your aunt for such indecent methods.

How could your father ever agree to let me get pregnant if you don’t leave?”

Having said that, she caressed her flat belly.

The relationship between An Feng and Zhang Xiaohui escalated quickly.

Thus, Zhang Xiaohui naturally had the desire to have a child with him.

Only An Feng would not allow it.

Every time after ‘it’, he always took off to the restroom right away,

leaving no chance for Zhang Xiaohui.

The reason was his daughter.

Therefore, after some considerations,

Zhang Xiaohui came up with the idea to send An Nuonuo abroad for study.

In this way, as time passed,

Being unable to see his daughter, An Feng would surely miss her profoundly.

At that moment, if she whispered sweet words into his ear, chances are that An Feng would agree.

And,

If An Nuonuo could return from a prestigious foreign university,

She could then arrange a better marriage match for Nuonuo,

And thereby securing her and An Feng’s enterprise an advantage.

An Nuonuo had no idea she was being targeted.

At this moment, she was happily eating street food with Jiang Xu.

With a drink in one hand and a roast sausage skewer in the other,

The two were sitting on a roadside flower bed, their bikes parked nearby.

Jiang Xu occasionally cracked a joke,

always managing to coax a smile out of his companion.

To the outside world, they made a perfect pair of childhood sweethearts.

An Nuonuo cherished and loved everything she had now.

The weather was just right, a gentle wind brushing over their faces.

With good food, and accompanied by you.

At a certain moment,

An Nuonuo suddenly wished that time could stay still at this very moment.

After finishing their food, the two leisurely cycled back.

An Nuonuo’s new home was even closer to school.

So, they spent less time together on the road.

In no time, they reached the entrance of the residential complex where An Nuonuo stayed.

“Wait a minute!”

Just as they parted, Jiang Xu suddenly remembered something,

and called An Nuonuo back.
