Chapter 369: Chapter 369 ‘Self-Reliance’ Jiang Xiaoyan
Translator: 549690339 7 & 11—
After coming out of the club, JiangXiaoyan still wanted to go for a late-night snack. 6
Jiang Xu checked the time, it was already past midnight.
An Nuonuo had been home for a while and had asked him when he would return.
So he shook his head and said, “It’s too late, I have class tomorrow, you guys should head back early too.”
In the dead of winter, it was definitely most comfortable to sleep hugging one’s cute, soft girlfriend.
“Tsk, how boring,” Jiang Xiaoyan pouted, then she hooked arms with Bai Xue, “Then sister, shall we continue the second half of the night?”
Bai Xue smirked with a smile, “Sure.”
And looking at Jiang Xu, she playfully winked, “Are you sure you don’t want to join us?”
This ‘join us’ carried a lot of implications.
However, Jiang Xu’s willpower was firm, and he was not tempted, firmly declining again.
And with this, they parted ways.
Jiang Xu arrived home to find the living room lights were still on. He saw An Nuonuo curled up on the sofa, covered with a blanket.
As soon as Jiang Xu came back, she jumped up and fetched some chicken soup from the kitchen.
The temperature was just right for drinking.
Jiang Xu didn’t go to receive it but instead encircled her waist, “I want you to feed me with your mouth.”
“No way,” the girl softly shook her head, “I’ve already brushed my teeth.” Jiang Xu said, “Then I won’t drink it, it definitely won’t be sweet enough.” Knowing that Jiang Xu was being deliberately unreasonable, An Nuonuo simply couldn’t refuse him.
So she could only do as told.
Thus, Jiang Xu tasted the most delicious chicken soup in the world.
Content, he went to brush his teeth.
The wind was strong tonight, howling against the windows.
In the bedroom, the two of them cuddled together, whispering sweet nothings. Jiang Xu said, “Nuonuo, it seems you haven’t called me ‘husband’ yet.” An Nuonuo shyly replied, “I… We aren’t married yet, of course I can’t call you that.” y
Jiang Xu said, “Other couples do it though, it’s called playful teasing between lovers, it can enhance the relationship.”
An Nuonuo said, “I… I can’t say it.”
Jiang Xu said, “How can you not say it? Wife, wife, wife.”
With each call of ‘wife,’ An Nuonuo was completely melted.
Although, it wasn’t the first time he had called her that.
She curled up in Jiang Xu’s arms.
The affection in her eyes was about to surge out like a tumultuous river. This was something she only dared to fantasize about in her dreams before. Waiting for the day she would wear a beautiful wedding dress.
In the presence of family and friends, she would go from girlfriend to his wife. Now that she was getting a taste of it in advance, one could imagine how she felt.
After some hesitation, An Nuonuo also whispered softly, “Hu… Husband-”
Her voice was so soft Jiang Xu almost didn’t hear it.
Those two words also had a great impact on Jiang Xu.
Subconsciously, he hugged An Nuonuo even tighter.
“I haven’t heard enough, call me that a few more times,” he said.
After the first time, it wasn’t as embarrassing.
Husband, husband, I love you~”
Jiang Xu was startled for a moment.
Because of her personality, An Nuonuo rarely said those three words, ‘I love you.’
“I love you too,” Jiang Xu held her tighter.
As if he wanted to merge her entire being into his body.
An Nuonuo felt a bit out of breath.
She lifted her head slightly, eyes closed, presenting herself willingly.
Her intention was crystal clear.
This was rare.
Usually, it was almost always Jiang Xu who took the initiative.
Seems like the night’s conversation put her in the right mood.
Jiang Xu purposely teased her, “It’s not been a week yet, we need to stick to the agreement.”
An Nuonuo’s face turned red.
Then she buried her head in Jiang Xu’s chest, not speaking anymore.
Her bashfulness kept her from repeating the words.
Jiang Xu laughed heartily.
Knowing she couldn’t resist teasing, he didn’t tease her further.
He just said, “This time it was your request, so it doesn’t count towards the one-week agreement.”
An Nuonuo said, “Then forget it.”
Jiang Xu replied, “No way, you don’t have the chance to back out now.”
Love surged like a tidal wave…
The next morning, as soon as Jiang Xu got up, he had someone transfer five billion to Bai Xue.
There was no contract signed or anything.
It was completely out of trust in Jiang Xiaoyan.
“Ah, it’s snowing!”
Upon waking up, An Nuonuo immediately went to open the curtains barefoot, and then let out an exclamation.
The room was warm with the heating on.
Everything outside was covered by a thin layer of frost and snow.
Jiang Xu had been checking the weather forecast for the past few days and knew it was going to snow.
The chance of snow in Magic City was not particularly high.
For someone from the south, seeing snow was always exciting.
An Nuonuo was no exception.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Jiang Xu, “Let’s eat quickly and then go to school to build a snowman, shall we?”
They had no class in the morning, but there was one elective in the afternoon.
After that, they had to rehearse for the program of the New Year’s Gala.
This time, they would not take the roles of scribes, leaving some opportunities for the original authors.
After breakfast, bundled up tightly and with scarves tied around their necks the two set off for school.
Snowflakes fluttered from the sky, creating a scene reminiscent of a fairyland. Many students from the south were already wildly enjoying themselves in the school.
Jiang Xu saw Xia Xiaozhan, Wu Mengmeng, Bai Xiaoya, and even Zhang Yuanyuan came out with Fu Yanjie.
“Nuonuo, you’re here, come, let’s build a snowman.”
Bai Xiaoya, upon seeing An Nuonuo, excitedly dragged her over.
Jiang Xu helped An Nuonuo put on her gloves and joined everyone in building snowmen. b
Some built Santa Clauses, some Ultramen, and others Doraemon.
An Nuonuo was also building earnestly.
Bai Xiaoya glanced over and laughed, “Looking at the shape of your snowman,
it couldn’t be that you’re trying to build Jiang Xu, is it?”
An Nuonuo’s eyes curved into crescent moons as she nodded slightly.
She wanted to construct the best version of Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu was also making An Nuonuo.
The two were truly in sync.
Half an hour later, they had both constructed each other.
Among all the snowmen, theirs were the most beautiful and lifelike.
Jiang Xu asked Bai Xiaoya to help them take photos.
Bai Xiaoya, looking at this perfectly matched couple, felt truly envious.
When would such a sweet romance come her way?
For the entire morning, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo played in the snow.
They rolled around in the snow, had a snowball fight.
Latter, they found a board and strung it with rope to let An Nuonuo sit on it.
Jiang Xu pulled her around, speeding everywhere.
When they grew tired, An Nuonuo pulled Jiang Xu.
They ran all over half the school.
The teachers and students who witnessed this scene couldn’t help but envy them. y
Jiang Xiaoyan stood on the second floor of the academic building.
Watching An Nuonuo and Jiang Xu play and frolic below, she was so envious she felt nearly beside herself.
She couldn’t help letting out a sigh, “Dear God, could you let me reincarnate to Jiang Xu’s high school period,
so I could make my move first and win his heart?”
She felt somewhat irritable.
She looked at her left hand.
All but the middle finger were coated in nail polish.
Muttering to herself, “Earning one’s keep is so hard…”
As she sighed, her phone rang.
She answered with an expressionless face, but in the next second, her face dramatically changed.
