Chapter 413: Chapter 413 Nuonuo Is Pregnant? 1

“Our factory’s R&D funds are almost used up, and we’ve already started researching the 32 nanometer chip.

The estimated initial investment is about two billion, send the money over quickly.”

After hearing Lu Chao’s words, Jiang Xu felt an immense headache: “You kid, as soon as you open your mouth, it’s two billion-do you really think my money grows on trees?”

Lu Chao: “Your company has just gone public, just cashing out a bit will be enough.

We need to hurry up, we’re already behind the international version.

If we want to catch up or even surpass, we have to spend like crazy.”

“Alright, alright, no more nonsense.” Jiang Xu was speechless: “After work, I’ll send someone to the factory to do the accounting.

If there s no problem, I’ll transfer the money over.”

“Great, then I won’t disturb you and your girlfriend’s fun time.”

Jiang Xu couldn’t help but rub his temples.

Tough business.

There’s only about twenty-five or twenty-six billion in cash that he can use in his company account right now.

Taking away twenty billion all at once would put the cash flow in jeopardy.

Lu Chao’s call successfully interrupted Jiang Xu’s plan to share with An Nuonuo how to deal with Zhang Xiaofeng.

The money wasn’t enough.

An Nuonuo saw Jiang Xu’s expression and knew what was troubling him.

She held his hand and said, “I have over eight billion in cash in my card, you can use that first.”

“I truly have a wise and virtuous partner.” Jiang Xu hugged her shoulders: “After breakfast, when we get back, I’ll properly…”

“Stop it, you’re being naughty again.”

Time quickly came to the first day of the new semester.

Returning to school, both Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo couldn’t help but feel as if they were in a different world.

A lot had happened during this winter break.

It felt like many years had passed all at once.

Returning to school, feeling the youth and vigor that permeated everywhere,

Jiang Xu finally realized.

He was only nineteen years old this year.

School life had just started not long ago.

The temperature had also risen.

In the school, one could see various female upperclassmen and underclassmen wearing black stockings, white stockings, and flesh-colored stockings.

Without mentioning other things, just looking at this scene was enough to lift one’s spirits.

“Nuonuo, Jiang Xu, you guys are here.”

“Long time no see, I’ve missed you guys.”

Right upon entering the school, they ran into Wu Mengmeng and Xia Xiaozhan.

They rushed forward and embraced An Nuonuo.

Hello everyone.” An Nuonuo was also very happy to see them.

Wu Mengmeng asked, “Where’s Yuanyuan?”

An Nuonuo replied, “She’ll be coming over in a couple more days.”

“Let’s go drink some milk tea.”

“Jiang Xu, are you coming too?”

Jiang Xu shook his head: “I’ll pass, you girls go ahead.” The three girls linked arms and went off to buy milk tea.

While at school, Jiang Xu ran into Li Yuhui again.

He was with his girlfriend.

Upon seeing Jiang Xu, they stopped.

“You guys talk, I’ll head to the library.”

Li Yuhui’s girlfriend smiled and walked off first.

“Let’s go sit over there in the pavilion,” Jiang Xu suggested.

Li Yuhui nodded in agreement.

Once they sat down in the pavilion, Li Yuhui spoke up proactively: “I’m planning to start a business in artificial intelligence. Are you interested in investing?”

Jiang Xu was delighted.

Finally, this big shot brought up the topic on his own.

Last time on the plane, he had chanced upon Bai Yujie, and Jiang Xu had asked her to say a few good words on his behalf to Li Yuhui when the opportunity arose.

It seemed it had worked now.

He nodded: “Okay, tell me the details.”

Li Yuhui spent half an hour going over his entire business plan and concept in detail.

Jiang Xu listened without missing a word, nodding from time to time.

Indeed worthy of being the future father of artificial intelligence.

The scope is very grand, and the insights are quite unique.

The only downside is that Li Yuhui asked for ten billion in startup capital as soon as he spoke.

Funds were already tight, and now they were completely drained.

But this was a must-invest situation.

Even if it meant selling everything, the investment had to be made.

The two men tentatively agreed orally, with Jiang Xu holding forty-nine percent of the shares and Li Yuhui fifty-one percent.

Jiang Xu only had one demand.

That was unless he allowed it, no one else could join this project.

This was an important bargaining chip for him, which might be very useful someday in the future.

Li Yuhui also agreed.

After discussing the formalities, they chatted about other things.

Only then did Li Yuhui rise to go to the library to find his girlfriend.

An Nuonuo and the others came back quickly as well.

Handing Jiang Xu a glass of juice.

“Ugh~”

Jiang Xu had only taken a few sips before he saw An Nuonuo starting to retch.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Xu patted her back.

Excitement sparkled in An Nuonuo’s eyes, “Brother Xu, could it be…”

A thought crossed Jiang Xu’s mind.

Damn.

Could it be An Nuonuo was pregnant?

Not daring to delay, he immediately took An Nuonuo to the hospital for an examination.

All the way there, An Nuonuo was visibly nervous.

Jiang Xu was even more nervous than she was.

He had always been hoping that An Nuonuo would get pregnant.

Suddenly there was a sign, and the feeling was hard to describe in words.

Upon arriving at the hospital.

They underwent an examination.

The doctor said, “There’s no serious problem, just some gastrointestinal dysfunction. You’ll be fine with some medication.”

Jiang Xu:

An Nuonuo:

The expressions on both of their faces visibly dropped.

Their hopes were dashed.

Jiang Xu pulled her out of the hospital, comforting her, “It’s okay, we’ll be able to have a baby sooner or later.

Otherwise, if you’re free now, why not make some clothes for yourself to keep for the baby when it comes?”

He said this to give An Nuonuo something to do and a bit of emotional support.

So she wouldn’t always think about this, which wasn’t good for her health.

A little light returned to An Nuonuo’s eyes, “Mmm, let’s go to the market then.”

Jiang Xu asked, “Don’t we still have vegetables at home?”

An Nuonuo: “I’m going to buy something nutritious for you.”

Jiang Xu: “Then don’t cry tonight.”

An Nuonuo: “I’ll just bite a towel and it’ll be okay.”

Jiang Xu couldn’t help but pinch her cheek.

She was just too cute.

The next day, Jiang Xu signed the contract with Li Yuhui.

As for the workplace, Li Yuhui owned an office building and a factory in his name.

An Nuonuo contributed eight billion, and Jiang Xu put in another two billion to make the required ten billion for Li Yuhui.

Now, Jiang Xu had less than four billion in cash at his disposal.

No wonder many tycoons get richer in assets but poorer in cash; this was why.

He had been planning to discuss a partnership with Zhang Long soon, but now he would have to put that on hold.

In the short term, Jiang Xu had no way to quickly earn a large sum of cash.

Unless he sold the properties in his name.

But unless absolutely necessary, Jiang Xu had no plans to touch those.

The property prices had not yet peaked; selling now would be a big loss.

At the very least, he had to wait until 2015 or 2016.

For the following few years, Jiang Xu went to classes with An Nuonuo.

Until February 22, 2011, when something unexpected happened to Jiang Xu..
