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

But fortunately, Jiang Xu had solutions to them.

According to what Jiang Xiaoyan knew, this medicine could only be used twice per person.

And there had to be an interval of more than five years between uses.

The second dose’s effect was only half as strong.

However, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo were still so young that there wasn’t a particular rush.

Jiang Xu’s expectations weren’t high; living to a hundred with An Nuonuo would be enough.

By then, at the very least, they could meet their great-grandchildren, or even their great-great-grandchildren—then life would be complete.

Jiang Xiaoyan left on her own, without saying goodbye to anyone.

In the afternoon, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo went to see the little baby.

Happened to have just finished feeding and was sleeping.

Fu Yanjie’s parents were watching over nonstop, their faces occasionally breaking into indulgent smiles.

This little one would never have any worries in their life.

Possibly the only worry would be having too much money to spend.

An Nuonuo liked the child very much and took lots of photos.

She refused to leave, wanting to wait until the child woke up so she could hold him.

Fu Yanjie, with his arm hooked around Jiang Xu’s shoulder, stepped outside, “The senior year class monitor messaged me yesterday. There’s a class reunion tonight. Did you get the message?”

“Hmm,” Jiang Xu nodded, “He sent one to Nuonuo and me too. If you want to take care of your wife and child, you don’t have to go.”

“Of course, I’m going,” Fu Yanjie hummed twice. “Haven’t seen everyone in so long, I kind of miss them.”

Jiang Xu saw right through him, “You just want to go and show off.”

In high school, apart from getting along well with Jiang Xu, Fu Yanjie didn’t have other particularly close friends.

So, any talk of missing classmates was just pretense.

The unmasked Fu Yanjie chuckled, “You really get me. I’m so successful now, with a fortune of several billions. I’d feel uncomfortable if I didn’t show off a bit.”

That night, Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo, and Fu Yanjie went to the class reunion together.

Zhang Yuanyuan was still in her postpartum confinement, so she definitely couldn’t attend.

The reunion was taking place at a high-end restaurant.

Yesterday Jiang Xu had offered to cover the cost.

As soon as they got out of the car, they saw all the senior year classmates waiting at the door.

Each one of them, upon seeing Jiang Xu, showed a sycophantic and respectful demeanor.

The gap between them and Jiang Xu was like a chasm; they could no longer maintain a normal attitude.

Jiang Xu, however, felt quite indifferent upon seeing their expressions.

Though they had not yet entered society, they had already become completely distant from him.

Still, his face didn’t show any oddity, and he didn’t put on airs, but rather greeted them warmly.

At the dining table, many female classmates, while An Nuonuo wasn’t paying attention, were sending secret glances to Jiang Xu.

They were thinking that if they could catch Jiang Xu’s eye, then they would be made.

Some with more nimble minds took the opportunity to try to pre-book a job position with Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu had only intended to have a simple catch-up.

But now, it seemed the gathering had turned into a venue for show and profit.

Indeed, class reunions are such a drag.

In the beginning, everyone was a bit restrained, but after a few drinks, they loosened up.

Fu Yanjie started bragging.

He boasted about how popular he was with the girls in school, making millions a day, and how he planned to become the richest man in the country someday.

If he had said such things before, he would have been laughed at by his classmates.

But now, they all humored him with obliging laughs.

Who knows, maybe one day they would indeed have to rely on Fu Yanjie to get by.

Jiang Xu felt quite bored.

He served himself a platter of fish.

He picked the fish head and placed it in his own bowl.

An Nuonuo, curious, asked, “Why aren’t you eating the body?”

With a smiling face, Jiang Xu said, “Eat the fish head and save the fish body (remainder of life).”

An Nuonuo blushed.

An Nuonuo never knew how to respond to the corny love phrases Jiang Xu would suddenly drop.

His heart was filled with glee.

Seeing An Nuonuo’s charming and appealing demeanor, many male students quickly lowered their heads and busied themselves with eating.

To cover up the envy and jealousy in their hearts.

Jiang Xu was truly a super winner in life.

Back in high school, he had the discerning eye to discover a hidden gem of a girl who was yet to be sought after by others.

Later, it only took him a short two and a half years to become a prominent figure domestically.

With a fortune worth several billions and official recognition,

he was the epitome of a winner in life.

The gathering ended after more than two hours.

Before leaving, Jiang Xu gave everyone a 100-gram gold bar as a token of remembrance for their high school days.

An Nuonuo, yawning, said, “Ah, I’m so sleepy, let’s hurry back, I want to rest.”

Jiang Xu asked the driver to speed up.

Halfway through the drive, they dropped Fu Yanjie off to take a taxi home by himself.

“Jiang Xu, you dog, I’ll remember this,” grumbled Fu Yanjie.

Brothers are important, but not as important as a wife.

Returning to their secret base, An Nuonuo ran off to the bathroom to freshen up.

But Jiang Xu sensed something amiss.

Normally, the first thing An Nuonuo did when she came home was to hang up her handbag.

But today, she deviated from her usual habit.

His intuition told him that this girl was up to something.

So, Jiang Xu took out his keys.

When decorating the place, he had chosen a type of door lock that could still be opened from the outside with a key even if it was bolted from the inside, to prevent any accidents.

“Click!”

The door opened in an instant.

Jiang Xu burst in.

Inside the bathroom, An Nuonuo was sneaking some ice cream.

Because Jiang Xu opened the door so suddenly, she hadn’t yet reacted, frozen as if a spell had been cast on her.

A trace of white ice cream lingered on the corner of her mouth.

“Well, An Nuonuo, very nice,” Jiang Xu laughed in anger, “You’re pretty daring, sneaking off to eat ice cream.”

Regaining her senses, An Nuonuo,

quickly stuffed the ice cream into her mouth the next second.

Since she was already caught, she might as well finish it quickly.

Jiang Xu was ‘furious.’

This little wench was getting bolder and bolder.

He swiftly moved forward and snatched away the remaining half of the ice cream.

“Aaah! Don’t, my ice cream, wuwuwu…” An Nuonuo reached out to grab it.

Unfortunately, she was no match for Jiang Xu.

He ate it in one bite.

An Nuonuo was devastated.

Not only did her sneak-eating fail, but she also got caught.

She tried to run away but was immediately caught by Jiang Xu, who wrapped his arm around her waist and headed towards the bedroom.

“Ah, let go of me- I’ll tell Auntie you’re bullying me- I was wrong, brother, give me a chance to repent- Actually, I bought that ice cream for you-”

Jiang Xu flung her onto the bed.

An Nuonuo pouted her lips, blinking furiously at Jiang Xu.

She tried to soften Jiang Xu’s anger by acting cute and adorable.

Unfortunately, Jiang Xu wasn’t in the mood for her antics at the moment, and her strategy was futile.

He flipped her over, raised his hand, and delivered a firm smack to the shock absorber.

An Nuonuo’s scream followed.

Jiang Xu demanded, “Tell me, where did you get that ice cream from?”
