Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 710: Chapter 710 Tricked Again

Lifuzhen waited for a while, but when Jiang Xu didn’t return her call, she dialed him again.

However, after several attempts, no one answered.

“Heh,” Lifuzhen chuckled coldly, “Using that tactic again? Then don’t blame me.”

All she wanted was for Jiang Xu to spend some time with her.

After all, she had helped him so much in the past.

But this damned man refused to comply.

If that was the case, then she would just have to storm over there.

Let him experience what a real hell on earth was like.

So she stormed into her bedroom, furious, and took great care to dress herself up.

Half an hour later, she emerged from the bedroom.

Although Lifuzhen was getting on in years,

her affluent lifestyle and good maintenance meant she had little to worry about.

So she still looked quite young and charming.

Her eyes were resolute as she carried her purse, as if she was on a mission.

“Ding-dong.”

At that moment, the doorbell rang.

Upon opening the door, she found over a dozen people standing outside.

Lifuzhen’s eyes darkened slightly, “Who are you?”

Wang Tie replied with a genial smile, “Miss Li, hello, I am Wang Tie, chairman of the Blue Sea Group.”

Lifuzhen of course knew of the Blue Sea Group.

She was somewhat puzzled; what did they want with her?

With the visitors already at her doorstep, naturally she could not just send them away.

Lifuzhen could only reluctantly invite them in, feeling rather vexed.

Once seated, the rest of the staff stood to either side.

Wang Tie gestured toward the young man sitting beside him, “Allow me to introduce my son, Wang Cong.”

Lifuzhen nodded slightly, “What brings you to me?”

“Oh, it’s nothing important,” Wang Cong’s face was adorned with a pleasant smile, “I just happened to learn where Miss Li lives.

I have admired you since I was young.

So I insisted that my father bring me to meet you, and if this is inappropriate in any way, I hope you’ll forgive us.”

“You’re blocking my chance to meet my lover, which is greatly inconvenient,” Lifuzhen internally scoffed.

On the surface, however, she said with a smile overflowing with warmth, “Not at all, please have some tea.”

Wang Cong raised his teacup, “To you.”

The accompanying staff quietly snapped photos.

This person was a master photographer.

From the angle of the shots, the two appeared ‘lost in each other’s eyes,’ as if ‘smitten with each other.’

Lifuzhen was utterly unaware that she had been played.

————————

Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo went to various supermarkets for a major shopping spree.

They also bought a lot of things for the children in the orphanage.

Each child got two sets of clothes for each season and two pairs of shoes,

as well as stationery and some snacks.

They were all quite ordinary items, none too expensive.

It wasn’t that Jiang Xu was unwilling to spend more.

Rather, if these orphaned children dressed too well or used items that seemed too luxurious, they could attract unwanted attention.

After shopping, Jiang Xu even sent a trusted person to deliver all these items by hand,

ensuring that they reached each child directly.

After having dinner outside in the evening,

they went home, where An Nuonuo took a shower.

Jiang Xu casually opened the Tiantian Headlines app.

The first piece of news that popped up was about the Blue Sea Group reaching a deep partnership with Lifuzhen.

The article included a photo of the two parties.

Lifuzhen was beaming in the picture.

However, Jiang Xu could see a trace of annoyance and anger in her eyes.

Hmm.

That anger wasn’t directed at him, was it?

Hmm, definitely not, it had nothing to do with him.

Just as he entertained that thought, Wang Tie called him again.

The main point was to express gratitude to Jiang Xu.

Additionally, it was an invitation for him to buy into a soon-to-be-listed stock.

Jiang Xu refused.

He did plan to buy, but not openly.

If he had agreed openly, he would’ve been used by Wang Tie as a promotional tool.

Then, if the company encountered issues, he would also be implicated.

The moment the call was ended, Lifuzhen called again.

Jiang Xu pressed the answer button and then tossed the phone onto the table.

Without listening, he knew that Lifuzhen’s words must contain a high dose of scolding about his mother, father, and ancestors.

Jiang Xu leisurely drank a cup of tea and nibbled on some pastries.

Only then did he pick up the phone.

“Jiang Xu, you bastard, you’re scheming against me again, I really want to beat you to death!”

Jiang Xu: “Ah, yes, yes, yes, that’s right.”

“…” Lifuzhen’s blood pressure shot up: “Spit it out, how are you going to compensate me?”

“Sister, I was wrong.”

Lifuzhen’s fury abated instantly because of these words.

Her face broke into a sweet smile: “Hmm, I’ll let it slide this time, but if it happens again, I’m going to kick your ass.”

Jiang Xu hung up the phone, smiling.

Indeed, older women are actually easier to handle.

He discovered he had a talent for charming rich women.

“Then accompany me for a meal,” Lifuzhen said.

Dammit.

Jiang Xu hung up the phone without another word.

Just flattering you against my better judgment is already a stretch, and you still want me to dine with you?

Today was the last day of work at the company.

In the afternoon, Chu Youwei came over.

Tomorrow, she would return to Jiang City with the majority.

Upon seeing Jiang Xu, Chu Youwei bowed deeply without a word.

“What’s this for?” Jiang Xu quickly helped her up.

Chu Youwei, with tears in her eyes, said, “One is to thank you and Nuonuo on behalf of the children from the orphanage.

The other is that I received too much for this year’s bonus, I… I’m overwhelmed.”

Her year-end bonus after tax was over forty million.

It was more than she could spend in a lifetime.

Words of thanks had been said too many times to count.

Jiang Xu laughed: “No need to thank me, you’ve earned even more for the company, it’s all deserved.”

Although he said that, Chu Youwei knew it was because Jiang Xu was decent.

If it were any other company, even without giving you a penny of a bonus, what could you really do?

Besides secretly swearing to work even harder in the future, Chu Youwei couldn’t think of another way to repay Jiang Xu.

Oh, when An Nuonuo has a baby, she could help take care of it more.

After that, Chu Youwei went to help An Nuonuo in the kitchen.

“Ding-dong.”

The doorbell rang.

Su Cheng came in through the door.

She was holding two express boxes, setting them down in front of Jiang Xu: “Boss, your package.”

“Oh, okay, leave it here,” Jiang Xu responded.

Su Cheng set the items down and turned to leave.

Jiang Xu checked the information on the packages.

It was an international express delivery, sent from Bear Country.

The sender was ‘Zhou’.

Without guessing, he knew it was from Zhou Qingyue.

One package was addressed to Jiang Xu, and the other to An Nuonuo.

New Year’s gifts?

Jiang Xu shouted towards the kitchen: “Nuonuo, Zhou Qingyue sent something over, can I open it for you?”

Although the two of them were inseparable now, it’s still necessary to respect each other’s privacy.

That’s the way to ensure a long-lasting relationship.

An Nuonuo poked her head out: “Oh, sure, Brother Xu, can you check what it is for me?”
