Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Jiang Xu: I, Labor Shu, Arrive at the Mountain

An Nuonuo's stomach was no longer hurting, so naturally, there was no problem.

She agreed instantly.

Then she said, "Can you let go of me now?"

She always had a feeling that he was taking advantage of her, but she couldn't prove it.

"Oh, there's another thing." Jiang Xu acted as if he didn't hear what she had just said.

He continued, "How well have you studied for Senior Three Curriculum, school starts in half a month."

"Uh... in all the main subjects, I've covered more than half."

She would also read her books for a while every time she got back home.

Plus, she was currently in a state of 'enlightenment,' and her learning efficiency was increasing day by day.

By the time school began, there wouldn't be a problem mastering a portion of Senior Three's courses.

An Nuonuo: "So, you can..."

"Speaking of." Jiang Xu laughed, "Our summer vacation has been quite boring.

We haven't gone anywhere fun. Other students are probably going all over the place, taking trips."

An Nuonuo: "..."

Jiang Xu's ears perked up.

He heard the main door being opened from outside; it must've been Fu Yanjie coming.

Therefore, he naturally let go of An Nuonuo's hand.

The young girl stepped back a bit, complaining with a hint of hurt in her voice, "You're a bully."

Jiang Xu glared, "What? I'm a nice guy."

An Nuonuo: "You're mean."

Having said that, she quickly ran off.

Fearing being caught again.

Jiang Xu grinned and sniffed his hand.

It had a faint, pleasant fragrance.

Well, he decided not to wash his hands for that day.

Jiang Xu got busy again.

That day, he had to draft an outline for Martial Movement.

Though he had read the script many times over, he was unable to replicate it one hundred percent.

Only the general plot direction and main characters could be recreated.

Additionally, certain unfortunate scenes from the original could be altered.

For instance, Yunyun not being admitted was simply too harsh.

If Jiang Xu was writing, he'd surely have her admitted.

Right, and Little Fairy Doctor as well.

As the world-saving protagonist, what was wrong with giving a little more love to the girls who needed help?

By five in the afternoon, Jiang Xu had already outlined Martial Movement entirely.

That night, he could officially start writing.

School was starting again in half a month.

After school started, he wouldn't have as much time.

If he could write for ten hours each day, calculating at a rate of 6,000 words per hour, he could have nearly a hundred or so words saved up by the time school started.

Lin Nan sent a message.

She had quit her job and could come by tomorrow.

Moreover, she was bringing two intern editors along.

They had just graduated not long ago, and had not been with Story Club for even half a month.

Lin Nan noticed that these two were diligent and eager to learn, with good personalities, so she managed to persuade them to come along.

Interestingly, those two intern editors were both from Jiang City too.

They probably agreed because it would let them work in their hometown.

Three editors were enough for the initial stage.

And, since there wouldn't be too much work in this initial stage, Jiang Xu had some other ideas too.

Fu Yanjie and Zhang Yuanyuan had left.

Jiang Xu watched their retreating figure, "these two make a good pair."

"Hmm," An Nuonuo nodded to his side, "Yuanyuan's a good person. I think she has a bit of a crush on Fu Yanjie."

"What about you?" Jiang Xu suddenly moved in closer, his gaze burning into her, "Do you have someone you like?"

"I...I definitely don't." The girl turned her head away, feeling unnatural.

"Do you know who I like?"

"Who...who is it?"

"Bring your ear closer and I'll tell you."

An Nuonuo seemed slightly wary, "You're not going to pull another trick on me, are you?"

She had been tricked too many times already.

"Am I that kind of person?"

"You are..."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it."

"No, I'll lean in to hear."

The young girl really wanted to know.

Her ears were crystal clear, revealing countless tiny blood vessels and fluffy hairs.

The thickness of her earlobes was just right, like a perfect work of art.

It made one want to hold it in their hand and play with it for a while.

Jiang Xu swallowed unconsciously.

Every time he got a little closer to An Nuonuo, his willpower had to withstand a great test.

He laughed and deliberately breathed out warm air: "Of course it's my parents, who else could it be."

The young girl nearly fell over with surprise.

Then, puffing up her cheeks, she bared her two rows of white, shell-like teeth and bit down on Jiang Xu's arm.

Jiang Xu winced in pain but didn't mind, instead, he said with a smile, "You know, only lovers bite each other."

An Nuonuo didn't let go.

Jiang Xu raised three fingers: "I swear, if you don't let go, I'm going to kiss you."

The young girl let go in fright, backing up a few steps and covering her mouth.

She thought Jiang Xu would actually dare to do it.

Jiang Xu laughed heartily, shrugged: "Alright, go home, and don't forget our date tonight. I'll come find you at eight o'clock."

"I know."

The young girl ran a distance before turning around, sticking her tongue out at Jiang Xu: "Smelly guy, rotten egg, hehe..."

Jiang Xu pretended to chase her, frightening the young girl into running faster.

Jiang Xu chuckled to himself.

The current An Nuonuo was showing the liveliness that her age should have.

Not like the beginning when she was brooding and dull, like a little idiot.

Checking the time, Jiang Xu went to check on his newly purchased house nearby.

Lin Nan and two other editors were coming tomorrow.

He thought he should help them find a place to live first.

Yes.

The company was just starting out, and he needed to be more considerate towards his employees.

If the salary wasn't enough, he would compensate with warmth.

He found a few rental places.

Finally, he found a four-bedroom apartment with a living room.

The decoration was decent, and it was quite new.

The surrounding environment was not bad, and there were security personnel at both the front and back doors.

The rent was eight hundred a month, with a three-month deposit.

Jiang Xu was pretty satisfied.

He didn't know if Lin Nan and the others would like it.

So he took photos of each room and sent them over.

Soon Lin Nan replied, saying she liked it very much.

Jiang Xu told her that if she liked it, they should rent it.

He'd pay the first month's rent, and they would pay for the rest.

After all, Lin Nan had money, so she probably wouldn't mind.

As expected, Lin Nan replied saying there was no problem. She would pay the rent herself and wouldn't let the two young editors, who had been lured to join, pay.

Rich friends, let's be friends.

Once the contract was signed and keys were handed over, the matter was settled.

Then, Jiang Xu went to the vegetable market, bought some ingredients, two bottles of Cola, several pink candles and two bouquets of roses.

Since they couldn't drink red wine, this would have to do.

When he got home, Jiang Xu started to prepare.

By seven-thirty, everything was ready.

Jiang Xu covered the dishes to prevent them from getting cold.

He had the entire night's steps planned out.

First this, then that, and finally so on.

This should allow their relationship to progress further.

Then, by graduation in high school, he would be ready to confess.

And then, hehe...

Looking at the time, Jiang Xu got ready to go out and fetch An Nuonuo to receive his grand scheme.

But just at that moment, Jiang Xiaoyan called.
