Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend - Chapter 566 - Chapter 566: Chapter 566: The Scoundrel Comes Late but Arrives

Chapter 566: Chapter 566: The Scoundrel Comes Late but Arrives

An Nuonuo also slept for fifteen to sixteen hours before waking up.

Jiang Xu brought her warm water immediately, “Don’t talk, drink some water first.”

An Nuonuo gulped down a large glass of water and sighed in relief, “I feel like… I’ve come back to life.”

“You,” Jiang Xu pinched her face, scolding her, “Who told you to push yourself so hard, don’t you know how to take care of your own body?

If something had happened to you, how could I explain it to your future in-laws!”

“You’re one to talk,” An Nuonuo defended, “You’re no different.

If uncle and aunt knew about this, they’d blame me for not taking good care of you.”

Jiang Xu couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time, “Alright, let’s not blame each other, the important thing is that things are okay now.

Have some porridge first and then let’s get a doctor to examine you again; if there’s no problem, we can be discharged.”

“Mm,” An Nuonuo nodded, “About the Group…”

“It has already gotten through the most dangerous phase early on. With those people at the helm, there won’t be any major problems.” It was precisely because the two of them gave their all during the critical forty-eight hours of the incident that they managed to stabilize the situation and avoided significant losses.

Moreover, they had found replacements for some of the key suppliers.

More than eighty percent of the Group’s operations had resumed, and the rest was just a matter of time.

This incident was a significant crisis for Nuomi Group, but it also contained opportunities.

It stirred the patriotic hearts of some netizens.

Why should we be bullied without cause?

Did they think we were pushovers because we are usually easy to talk to?

A single spark can start a prairie fire.

As long as Jiang Xu doesn’t make any major mistakes in principle, the support from both the public and officials would be enough to keep the Group going.

And not just surviving, but thriving.

That’s great,” An Nuonuo showed a joyful expression, their efforts over the past few days had not been in vain.

After feeding An Nuonuo some porridge, Jiang Xu had the doctor check her thoroughly inside and out, and after confirming there were no issues, they went home.

By the time they got home, it was after eight in the evening.

“Wow!”

As soon as they entered the house, countless flowers were showered down from above, and a melodious song filled the room.

At the same time, Su Cheng came out pushing a specially made cake, “Welcome home, boss and madam. This cake is specially made; it’s healthy and safe to eat.”

An Nuonuo was overjoyed, “Thank you.”

Jiang Xu was very satisfied with Su Cheng’s initiative.

Without being asked, she knew what to do.

Indeed, a good housekeeper can alleviate many worries.

Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo were indeed hungry.

The whole cake was quickly devoured by the two of them.

Su Cheng said, “The bath water is ready for you both. Please enjoy, I’ll step out

for now. Call me if you need anything.”

After a wonderful bath, the two lay in bed.

An Nuonuo, wearing a thin nightgown, rested her head on Jiang Xu’s abdomen and looked up, “What’s our next step? Are we going to fight them till the end, or play defensively?”

“Let’s stick to defense,” Jiang Xu said somewhat helplessly, “Though I’d like to unleash a king’s might, slaughtering all foes, and even take down and swallow up those international giants, it’s not realistic.”

The discrepancy in scale between the two sides was already colossal.

One was barely reaching the scale of hundreds of billions.

The other three international giants were of the trillion-dollar super behemoth level.

And considering the current period, they were in a phase of rapid development. If Jiang Xu were to slack off even slightly, the gap between them would only widen further.

Fortunately, I also have the advantage of fighting on home turf and the protection of laws and regulations.

As long as I don’t leave the country, they would need to invest at least two to three hundred billion to dismantle Nuomi completely.

Given the nature of those people, they are absolutely unwilling to do business at a loss.

At most, they would support a local agent to engage in a prolonged battle with me domestically.

And as for who the other party is, Jiang Xu had already guessed.

It was very likely Zhang Xiaofeng.

“Mm,” An Nuonuo softly said, ’’No matter what, I’ll always stand firmly by your side.”

Her waterfall-like long hair fell on Jiang Xu’s abdomen.

A slight movement would bring Jiang Xu a series of tickles.

Suddenly, An Nuonuo’s delicate body trembled.

She felt a certain change in Jiang Xu’s body, and her face blushed at once.

Seeing that Jiang Xu wanted to get up, An Nuonuo pressed him down with one hand.

Not daring to look into his eyes, “You’ve been working so hard these days, just don’t move, let me…”

Her voice was extremely soft.

If the room wasn’t so quiet, it might not have been heard.

Jiang Xu grinned, “Nuonuo, you’re becoming more sensible.”

An Nuonuo didn’t speak anymore, biting her lips tightly.

She was a bit busy now…

Two days later.

Things developed exactly as Jiang Xu had predicted.

Those three international giants, upon realizing that completely dismembering Jiang Xu would require two to three times the effort, immediately changed their strategy.

They promoted Zhang Xiaofeng to be their domestic agent, to fight in the arena against Jiang Xu, slowly draining and nibbling away at him.

However, what Jiang Xu didn’t expect was that Zhang Xiaofeng was not the loyal type willing to be a puppet for others.

That very evening, he secretly arranged to meet with Jiang Xu at a club.

Jiang Xu hadn’t seen Zhang Xiaofeng for a while.

The impression he always had of him was one of arrogance and coldness.

He seemed to be a combination of a wolf and a venomous snake.

But now, he had undergone a significant change, from the inside out.

He had become very reserved, and even wore gold-rimmed glasses.

He gave off an air of being gentler and more refined.

Jiang Xu had a feeling that he’d seen a ghost.

How could this guy change so much?

Was he planning to evolve into a cultured scoundrel?

What s with that look?” Zhang Xiaofeng was very displeased.

“Nothing, nothing,” Jiang Xu said with a smile, “Mr. Zhang has become increasingly charismatic.”

Zhang Xiaofeng felt that Jiang Xu was mocking him, but had no evidence.

He snorted coldly and didn’t dwell on it further.

Instead, he went straight to the point of why he had arranged this meeting with Jiang Xu, “If those guys want to use me as a pawn, they’d better be prepared to bleed a lot.

We could cooperate. On the surface, we seem to be fighting each other fiercely, but in reality, it’s just noise with little action.

We’ll keep demanding money and resources from them, and I’m willing to split it with you.

But our conflict must continue.”

It was like with ancient generals who were ordered to wipe out bandits.

A task that could be finished in a day is deliberately stretched over months or even years.

Every so often they would demand money, food, and troops from the court, with the purpose of lining their own pockets.
