Chapter 595 - What is Ear Picking
Chapter 595: Chapter 595 What is Ear Picking
Last time, Mei Jiji secretly recommended a stock to Jiang Xu, and it had been held for a while.
It surged every day.
Now it was time to reap the profits.
Jiang Xu told Ally that she could sell it off.
Half an hour later, Ally sent a message that all the shares of that stock were sold.
She had sold hers as well.
The profit was close to six hundred million!
Even for Jiang Xu, this wasn’t a small sum of money, enough to do many things with.
The money wasn’t transferred back but temporarily kept in an overseas account.
Evening.
The two were eating dinner while watching TV.
The program airing was yesterday’s event from the Qingcheng region.
“All these sisters are so pretty, and their skin is so good,” An Nuonuo said in amazement.
“Mhm, indeed,” Jiang Xu nodded, “The girls over there have been eating spicy food since they were little; it’s a place full of vitality, naturally bestowed with beauties.
But yeah, their tempers can be a bit fiery, and the men are usually henpecked.”
An Nuonuo blinked, “What does henpecked mean?”
“It means being afraid of the wife, though locally, they say it’s about loving the wife.”
An Nuonuo blinked again, full of expectation, “Then, brother, could you become henpecked too?”
Jiang Xu teased her on purpose, “Oh? Do you want me to find a girl from Qingcheng to marry?”
The young girl immediately puckered up, looking at Jiang Xu with a huff, “You’re mean, you know that’s not what I meant.”
Jiang Xu burst into laughter.
A few minutes later, a girl with an ethereal aura took the stage.
“Hello everyone, my name is Chu Youwei, I’m 21 years old, studying at Qingcheng University, in my third year, majoring in flight attendance, thank you all.”
An Nuonuo saw her and even paused with her chopsticks, murmuring to herself, “So pretty~”
Jiang Xu nodded.
The one on stage now was Chu Youwei.
Well, how to put it.
This girl could be seen as a simplified version of An Nuonuo.
If the overall score was a hundred, and An Nuonuo was ninety-nine, then this girl could be given ninety-four.
The difference was noticeable, but not major.
Unlike other girls from Qingcheng, this one was very gentle and soft-spoken.
Probably all the gentleness of the girls from Qingcheng was concentrated in her.
And Chu Youwei’s appearance earned her a high score of forty-eight.
Below, there was a string of applause and cheers.
An Nuonuo couldn’t even focus on her meal anymore, taking out her phone.
When Jiang Xu saw it, she had actually found Chu Youwei and followed her.
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “What’s the matter, did you take a liking to this girl?”
“Mhm, I think she’s so special,” An Nuonuo’s eyes sparkled, “I feel like I might have topics to talk about with her, or even become good friends.”
That’s An Nuonuo for you.
If it were any other girl, seeing Chu Youwei would definitely make them consider her a rival, even harboring hostility.
But not An Nuonuo, she actually thought of making friends with her.
There were just too many shining points about his fiancée.
After watching the competition, An Nuonuo got up to do the dishes, but Jiang Xu pressed her down, “Let me do it, you rest.
During the competition period, I’ll take care of all the housework.”
An Nuonuo shook her head, “It’s okay, I’m not pregnant or anything, it’s really nothing.”
She felt that Jiang Xu was acting a bit strange.
“No, I said I would come, so I will come.”
Having said that, and without giving An Nuonuo a chance to refuse, Jiang Xu gathered up the bowls and chopsticks and headed into the kitchen.
Helplessly, An Nuonuo could only carry on with signing autographs.
It wasn’t until midnight that An Nuonuo finally stopped.
Jiang Xu had prepared some white T-shirts, signing his name on the front of the shirts.
There were well over three hundred of them.
After having breakfast the next day, Jiang Xu accompanied An Nuonuo to the hotel.
Upon arrival, they were taken aback.
The entire hotel, inside and out, was jam-packed with people.
A rough estimate suggested that there were at least ten thousand people.
The officials had mobilized over a hundred people to maintain order.
It was just for an autograph, yet it had turned into such a massive event.
If it were a concert or something, wouldn’t it paralyze the traffic in the entire area?
The hotel manager and the staff stood at the entrance, shivering behind the glass doors as they watched the scene unfold.
It felt like the crowd outside could charge in at any moment and trample them to dust.
An Nuonuo shrank her neck and was also frightened by the scene before her.
She turned her head to Jiang Xu, “Should I sign more autographs? There are so many people; it won’t be enough to go around.”
“Forget it,” Jiang Xu shook his head, “How many more can you prepare in such a short time? But we can use a random draw.”
The bodyguards cleared the way for them as they walked to the hotel entrance.
Today, they weren’t wearing masks.
So when Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo appeared, the cheer almost shattered the hotel’s glass doors and windows.
This level of popularity, at least in the country, might only be a notch below Zhou Qingyue’s at the moment.
With a bit more effort, surpassing Zhou Qingyue was just a matter of time.
Jiang Xu handed the microphone to An Nuonuo.
An Nuonuo took a deep breath, and her soft yet powerful voice spread, “Thank you all for your support. Can I please ask everyone to maintain order, so as to avoid uncontrollable accidents? Thank you all for your cooperation.”
As she spoke, she bowed ninety degrees to everyone.
The scene instantly became quiet and orderly.
A sweet young lady with a net worth in the billions, speaking politely to these common folks—who could withstand that?
Jiang Xu was stunned.
Are netizens this easy to manage nowadays?
If other celebrities saw this, they would probably be quite frustrated.
An Nuonuo continued, “Because I didn’t expect so many people to come, I only prepared three hundred signed white T-shirts. I’m truly sorry.”
Many people below were taking photos or shooting videos.
Hearing An Nuonuo’s words, they felt genuinely pleased.
Just look how polite she is. With such high wealth and social status, still so humble, apologizing after a few words.
Why does it feel like I’m the big shot, and An Nuonuo is the newbie?
An Nuonuo went on to say, “To make it fair, these signed T-shirts will be given to those who have the last four digits of their mobile number or identity card match any random four numbers I will call out.
In addition, during my livestream sessions over the next month, I will draw fifty viewers each day to give away signed T-shirts. Thank you all.”
This suggestion was agreed upon by everyone present.
Handled very well, not a single piece of cake was left.
There wasn’t much noise on-site; it was all An Nuonuo randomly calling out four-digit numbers.
Just by listening to An Nuonuo’s voice, many people had satisfied expressions on their faces.
Of course, among them, some looked at Jiang Xu with eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and hate.
This lucky dog, what did he do to deserve such a girlfriend? It should have been me!
