Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend - Chapter 572 - Chapter 572: Chapter 572 Sorry, I was acting

Chapter 572: Chapter 572 Sorry, I was acting

Zhou Qingyue made the call to Mr. Lin in front of Jiang Xu.

She truly was a woman capable of winning Best Actress awards.

While her abilities may have been slightly embellished, her acting skills were beyond reproach.

Her voice trembled with a mix of two parts trepidation, three parts panic, and five parts excitement as she said, “The task… the task is complete, she took the poison!”

“Hahaha!” Mr. Lin laughed heartily, “Are you sure?!”

Zhou Qingyue swallowed hard, her speech rapid and anxious, “How could I joke about such a matter?

Hurry up and give me the rest of the money and the stocks, and let me join the Elite Club quickly.

Don’t contact me for a while; I need to go lay low outside.”

Mr. Lin could feel Zhou Qingyue’s panic through the phone.

He believed his guess was correct, “Alright, I will deliver the remaining payment to you within two days, take care of yourself.”

“Remember, if you don’t settle the payment, I’ll tell Jiang Xu, and we’ll all go down together!” Zhou Qingyue’s expression was slightly ferocious as she spoke, her voice carrying a hint of madness.

An Nuonuo looked at her, impressed by her performance.

This acting, truly was impeccable.

After ending the call, Zhou Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xu gestured dismissively, not saying much, and let Zhou Qingyue leave on her own.

“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry!”

Zhou Qingyue bowed again in apology before she left dejectedly.

Bitterness filled her heart.

After such an ordeal, she knew she would never again find a place in Jiang Xu’s heart.

Alas, perhaps this was the just deserts of greed.

Jiang Xu didn’t bother to watch her leave.

An Nuonuo leaned on Jiang Xu’s shoulder and whispered, “The ‘ban’ you placed on her for three months was actually to protect her, wasn’t it?”

Stroking her hair, Jiang Xu replied affectionately, “Mhm, she’s not suited to be involved in the whirlwind to come.”

The incident hadn’t happened, and considering Zhou Qingyue pulled back from the brink, Jiang Xu didn’t harbor great malice towards her.

Moreover, personal feelings aside, Zhou Qingyue was still a lucrative cash cow, so he wouldn’t really harm her.

She could spend these three months reflecting on her actions.

But in the future, he would certainly not consume anything she offered without it being tested first.

But on another note!” Jiang Xu’s expression turned serious, “This habit of always putting others first needs to change!”

Being kind-hearted is a virtue.

But excessive kindness becomes a weakness that enemies can exploit.

“I…” An Nuonuo lowered her head, uncertain of how to respond.

It was her nature, and changing it seemed almost impossible.

So, she chose to remain silent.

Seeing An Nuonuo like this, Jiang Xu became even more irritated.

Alright, alright, it seems you didn’t take my words to heart.

If that’s the case, then a more… direct form of education is necessary.

Soon, the room was filled with An Nuonuo’s ‘screams of agony’.

Meanwhile, after finishing the call with Zhou Qingyue, Mr. Lin summoned his confidant.

He instructed, “After the poison is ingested, it will take two to three months to take effect.

But during the first few days, there will be some subtle changes.

For instance, hands occasionally trembling, or stumbling while walking. Keep a close eye on her these next few days, and if she shows these symptoms, it means she’s taken the poison, if not…”

A cold light flashed in Mr. Lin’s eyes.

His confidant quickly replied, “If not, Zhou Qingyue won’t need to continue living in this world.”

Even though killing a top female celebrity would entail some trouble,

it wouldn’t be a major issue for them.

The next day, the two of them got up a little later than usual.

Mainly because last night, Jiang Xu had given An Nuonuo a stern ‘education’.

Let her learn a lesson.

This kind of thing can’t happen again.

I’m not sure what An Nuonuo is thinking inside.

But at least on the surface, she assured that she would definitely try her best to change.

After washing up, the two of them held hands and left the house.

Yes, they had to act for the next few days.

On the test report that Su Cheng gave yesterday, at the very bottom, it was specifically noted.

Just after taking the medicine, there will be some reactions in the body. Jiang Xu didn’t even have to think to know that the other party would definitely send someone to confirm this.

The two went to a nearby breakfast shop to eat.

The bodyguards were also secretly following them, with no difference from before.

The owner quickly served the breakfast.

Before long, a man and a woman entered the shop and sat opposite Jiang Xu and his companion.

They showed a hint of amazement upon seeing the two, but said nothing.

Jiang Xu took an extra glance at them before diverting his attention.

The pair chose seats directly facing An Nuonuo.

During the meal, the man occasionally glanced at An Nuonuo’s hands.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted.

Because he noticed that An Nuonuo’s hand trembled slightly while she was eating.

And it happened twice within a few minutes.

That’s a high frequency.

The man had an idea of what was going on.

When Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo finished eating and stood up to leave, An Nuonuo suddenly staggered and nearly fell, but Jiang Xu steadied her.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Xu asked.

His voice was moderate, loud enough to be overheard by the man and woman.

It’s nothing, I probably tripped over something.”

“Okay, let’s go to school then.”

After the two left, the man and woman exchanged glances.

Then the man took out his phone and sent a text message.

Little did they know, all their actions were under Jiang Xu’s surveillance.

Every so often, someone sent photos to his phone.

Arriving at the school.

It had been a while since they last came to school.

Recently, both of them had been at the center of a storm and were understandably exhausted both physically and mentally.

But returning to school instantly relaxed them completely, inside and out.

No matter when, coming back to school felt like returning to a safe haven.

Especially looking at the young and energetic classmates, their mood would lighten.

An Nuonuo took Jiang Xu’s hand: “Let’s go to the lake and watch the mandarin ducks.

Jiang Xu smiled: “Okay, let’s go.”

In the following days, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo continued their act.

In school, outside, they appeared in public more often than before.

After repeated confirmations, Mr. Lin finally believed that An Nuonuo had really taken the medicine.

He was overjoyed.

He gave the remaining payment to Zhou Qingyue.

Zhou Qingyue in turn sold the stocks.

Through an intermediary, she transferred the money abroad, and after a few transactions, moved it to Jiang Xu’s account.

After deducting some fees, the profit was 2.3 billion!

And after days of investigation, Su Cheng finally placed a detailed report in front of Jiang Xu..
