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

Bai Xiaoya’s company had by now also gotten on track.

Jiang Xu had provided her with many professional talents, so she only needed to be in charge of the overall direction, without having to stay in the company all day long.

Jiang Xu turned on Jiangcheng Television Station.

Being from Jiangcity, both he and An Nuonuo naturally started with their home city.

Just then.

On the brand-new stage, a girl who looked to weigh more than 150 pounds took the stage to introduce herself.

“Hello everyone, my name is Meimei, I’m eighteen years old, my criteria for choosing a partner are a monthly salary of a million, letting me manage the money after marriage, and he has to accompany me…”

“Get off the stage!”

“If you want to make a wish, go to a temple!”

“Where did this 213 come from? Don’t embarrass Jiang City!”

…

Before the ‘brave soul’ on stage could even finish her speech, she was scolded by the audience and left the stage in a huff.

“Tsk tsk tsk,” Bai Xiaoya clicked her tongue in wonder, “Where does she get her confidence from? A barrel waist, average looks, and she dares to make such excessive demands.

To be honest, even with my current circumstances, I would feel embarrassed to make such demands.

Moreover, this isn’t a matchmaking event, is she confused about what’s going on?”

Jiang Xu laughed and said, “Some delusional girls are like that, incapable of facing reality.

Despite earning just three thousand a month and being of average build and looks, they look down on men earning ten thousand, with their minimum requirement being a fifty-thousand monthly income.

They also demand that their partner owns a house and a car, with the house paid for in full.

The craziest part is, they want to control the finances after marriage and have their names added to the house deed.

If this were ancient times, who knows how many times they would have been executed. It’s only due to a harmonious society that they’re saved.”

Bai Xiaoya nodded in strong agreement.

She had seen similar things before.

And they seemed to be becoming more frequent.

They kept watching.

What followed seemed more normal.

The preliminaries were judged by a panel that gave scores.

There was no need for any performance of talent, although it was a plus if you had one.

It was just about going up there, letting everyone see your figure, voice, temperament, and such, to see if you could reach the passing score.

If you could, you would move on to the next round.

So, the process was quick.

Each person took at most two or three minutes.

“It seems like the quality isn’t that great,” Bai Xiaoya said after watching for a while, “If the full score is one hundred, there isn’t one who could reach eighty.”

Jiang Xu opened his phone to take a look, then said, “You should check out Tiantian Headlines.”

Upon hearing this, An Nuonuo and Bai Xiaoya opened Tiantian Headlines.

A striking news headline caught their eye.

[Jiang City Competition Area, Is That It?]

They clicked in, and it was an article.

‘Taking a look at today’s various competition areas, one could feast their eyes.’

‘There were all kinds of girls that dazzle the senses—cute, sexy, sweet, and androgynous—a true visual banquet.’

‘However, there were also downsides, such as Jiang City, which didn’t have a single top-tier girl.’

‘Not to mention crooked melons and cracked jujubes, but really, there isn’t one that makes you do a double-take.’

‘Jiang City is now just a step away from being a first-tier city, yet it doesn’t have a single decent girl, which is unbelievable.’

Under the article, there was a slew of replies.

‘Exactly, when compared to other areas, it’s just too shabby.’

‘Even the officials of Jiang City must feel awkward.’

‘Ah ah ah, I’m from Jiang City, and I feel like I can’t lift my head in front of people from other cities. Hurry up and have a stunning beauty save us.’

‘Seconded.’

‘Right, I remember that An Nuonuo is from Jiang City, @her.’

‘Exactly, exactly, An Nuonuo, you gotta represent!’

…

“Ah, I didn’t expect netizens to react so strongly,” Bai Xiaoya was somewhat surprised.

Then she smiled at An Nuonuo, “But the netizens do have a point, don’t you want to fight for your hometown?”

“This…” An Nuonuo hesitated and looked at Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu smiled and said, “Make your own decision, no matter what it is, I’ll support you.”

He silently added in his mind, sorry about this, Nuonuo, I have to play a little trick on you this time.

Yes, these posts, and the buzz around them, were all orchestrated by Jiang Xu.

It was all to ensure that An Nuonuo could join the competition naturally.

An Nuonuo opened her own posted works.

Under nearly every piece, there were tons of fans’ comments urging her to participate and fight for her hometown’s honor.

She was somewhat torn.

She wasn’t the kind to seek attention or enjoy being in the limelight.

In fact, if not for Jiang Xu, she’d rather hide behind him for the rest of her life.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Xu immediately felt guilty.

He pulled An Nuonuo into his arms and said in a low voice, “Forget about it, we won’t join. Who cares about all that.”

At this moment, An Nuonuo was all that mattered, everything else could take a backseat!

Bai Xiaoya: Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?

At that moment, An Nuonuo’s phone rang.

She took the call while nestled in Jiang Xu’s arms.

“Hello, is this Miss An Nuonuo?”

“It’s me, who’s this?”

“Hello, I’m with Jiangcheng City… You must have seen the message online, Miss An, it has indeed caused some impact.”

“If it’s convenient for you, could you participate? If it’s not, then never mind.”

Jiang Xu was astonished.

This was an official call from Jiang City.

It wasn’t in his plan and beyond his capabilities.

“Hmm…” An Nuonuo hesitated before responding: “I know, I’ll join.”

“Really? That’s wonderful. Thank you very much, Miss An. Then I’ll let you go.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xu said, “Won’t this be forcing yourself?”

“Not at all,” An Nuonuo revealed a radiant smile: “I’m happy to be able to contribute to my hometown.”

Jiang Xu looked into her eyes to make sure she wasn’t forcing herself before he felt at ease.

He stroked her hair: “This noon, I’ll cook for you myself, make you a delicious meal, and wish you a triumphant start.”

An Nuonuo smiled sweetly: “Thank you, brother.”

Bai Xiaoya shook her head helplessly: “I can’t deal with this. I’m leaving. If I stay any longer, I’ll start questioning my life choices.”

After that, Bai Xiaoya left.

Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo both started laughing and didn’t try to retain her.

“Nuonuo, we still have some time. Let’s go to the room, and I’ll give you a massage to relax,” Jiang Xu said.

After saying that, Jiang Xu took An Nuonuo back to the room.

He seriously wanted to give An Nuonuo a massage.

Otherwise, he would feel too guilty, like he was a terrible person.

But he couldn’t tell An Nuonuo this.

Otherwise, she would only worry more.

However, An Nuonuo misunderstood.

Looking down she said, “Don’t… during the daytime, wouldn’t that be like a daytime… ”

Jiang Xu: “I’m talking about a proper massage, where did your mind go?”
