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

Chapter 661: Chapter 661: Is this something I can watch for free?

As a top-tier underboss, Jiang Xu had more tricks up his sleeve than a honeycomb has holes.

Knowing full well that there was something off about Xiao Jibo, he naturally couldn’t just leave so easily.

Indeed, he pretended to allow the motorcade to leave but actually hid in the shadows and heard what he had wanted to hear.

This time, Xiao Jibo was truly scared and fumbled in a hurry to hang up the phone.

But Jiang Xu snatched it away and put it to his ear.

On the other end of the line, a song came through:

“Ah peony, peony, great peony…”

Jiang Xu almost couldn’t hold back a laugh and asked in a deep voice, “Who are you?”

The person on the other end didn’t answer.

Jiang Xu could only hang up the phone.

Squatting in front of Xiao Jibo: “Tell me, what is your true purpose exactly?”

“Heh,” Xiao Jibo sneered, “Call me ‘daddy’ and I might tell you.”

Jiang Xu said indifferently, “Indeed, I don’t dare to kill you, that wouldn’t be worth it.

But if you ‘accidentally’ fall over and just happen to injure a rather sensitive area,

causing you to lose a man’s basic function, then that has nothing to do with me anymore.”

“You wouldn’t dare!” Xiao Jibo said, threatening but clearly frightened.

However, it was obvious that he was indeed a little scared.

Any normal man would fear such things.

Moreover, this guy was still so young; if he lost his most basic functions, he probably wouldn’t want to live.

“Do you think I’m joking with you?” Jiang Xu was smiling, but his eyes were cold.

He had neither the time nor the patience to continue playing with this petty individual.

“I’ll talk,” Xiao Jibo swallowed hard, “The other party is the controller of a large overseas financial consortium.

You might as well not ask who it is because I don’t know myself.

I’m just one of their selected agents.

And I’m not afraid to tell you, there’s not just one agent like me, but at least a thousand.

Our task is to use various means to make the domestic businesspeople fight each other.

Eventually letting that group of foreign financial backers reap the benefits.”

Jiang Xu broke out in a cold sweat.

This was a super big game.

In his previous life, he hadn’t heard anything about this at all.

He didn’t know if it hadn’t happened before or if the affair was too shocking to be exposed.

But after calming down, Jiang Xu thought the likelihood was not great.

You couldn’t take all of Xiao Jibo’s words at face value.

Maybe one in ten sentences he spoke was true.

Mixed together, truth and lies, it was very hard to distinguish.

“So, you must have had financial dealings with the other side,” Jiang Xu asked.

“I didn’t have direct dealings with them,” Xiao Jibo replied. “It all came through an intermediary who provided the operating funds to me.”

Jiang Xu said, “Give me the contact information for that intermediary.”

Xiao Jibo obediently complied.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Xu left.

He decided to let Liu Dahai investigate this matter.

Only when Jiang Xu truly left did Xiao Jibo breathe a sigh of relief.

He slumped to the ground.

“Ah… hahahaha!”

Xiao Jibo suddenly burst into loud laughter, sounding quite eerie.

Back at the company, Jiang Xu began to deal with the current media storm.

With evidence in hand and now in control of the nation’s largest media platform,

once he exerted his influence, the related online fervor quickly cooled down.

At seven o’clock in the evening, Jiang Xu made a call to Jiang Xiaoyan.

But no one answered.

It was the same after several attempts.

Jiang Xu frowned.

“`

At this time, she should already be up.

Never mind, I’ll wait a bit longer, maybe she’s sleeping in today.

More than an hour later, Jiang Xiaoyan finally returned Jiang Xu’s call: “What’s up?”

“What happened to you?” Jiang Xu asked.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyan’s voice sounded feeble.

It gave off a feeling of being drained.

“I went to the hospital,” Jiang Xiaoyan said in a light tone.

“Are you sick?” Jiang Xu’s heart skipped a beat.

Considering recent events, could it be that she’d been targeted over there as well?

Jiang Xu’s affection for Jiang Xiaoyan was like that of an older brother towards a slightly sick sister.

Although, this ‘sister’ was actually a year older than him.

“Nope.” Jiang Xiaoyan seemed to be drinking water, gulping, and then said: “Went to the hospital for a small laser procedure.

Well, strictly speaking, it doesn’t even count as a procedure.”

“Huh?” Jiang Xu was puzzled: “What laser? Be more specific.”

“Wait a minute, I’ll send it to your email, and you can see for yourself.”

After saying that, Jiang Xiaoyan hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, Jiang Xu received an email from Jiang Xiaoyan.

There were two pictures.

After looking at them, Jiang Xu almost coughed up blood.

Ice cold, sending this kind of stuff.

He deleted the photos, then redialed Jiang Xiaoyan’s phone, frustrated: “Are you out of your mind?”

“Ah, why suddenly insult someone?”

Perhaps it was because Jiang Xiaoyan was currently a bit weak, or perhaps she was faking it.

Her voice sounded very innocent.

But Jiang Xu could imagine that right now she must be displaying a fox-like smile.

Jiang Xu gritted his teeth: “Be serious!”

“Hee hee, aren’t the photos nice?” Jiang Xiaoyan finally couldn’t suppress her true nature: “Does it look like Nuonuo’s?

That’s the laser procedure I mentioned.”

Jiang Xu was at his wit’s end: “Just because Nuonuo is… so you also went to do it? No, wait, how do you know about Nuonuo?”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “Are you dumb? Forgot that I’ve swum with Nuonuo before.”

Jiang Xu: “…”

He suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

Compared to Zhou Qingyue, Jiang Xiaoyan was undoubtedly much more ‘difficult to deal with’.

If Zhou Qingyue dared to send such pictures, Jiang Xu would block her in a minute, and even dare to slap her twice.

But not Jiang Xiaoyan.

In the process of Jiang Xu’s development, she had provided a lot of support and helped him out of crises many times.

Especially at the beginning of his entrepreneurship, she gave Jiang Xu a lot of money.

Fifty thousand every month.

It could be said, without Jiang Xiaoyan, it would have taken Jiang Xu at least another three to five years to reach his current level.

And everything Jiang Xiaoyan had done was for him.

In this respect, Zhou Qingyue couldn’t compare.

Zhou Qingyue, that woman, might have really liked Jiang Xu in the past.

But, she was more in love with herself.

So Jiang Xu’s attitude toward Jiang Xiaoyan was completely different from that toward Zhou Qingyue.

For her, at most, he would just scold her a bit.

Jiang Xiaoyan, knowing when to quit, didn’t ask Jiang Xu any more explosive questions.

Like which one looked better, hers or An Nuonuo’s…

Well, she would ask him again after his anger subsided.

She quickly changed the subject: “Anyway, what did you want to talk to me about? You called so many times, seemed urgent.”

Jiang Xu took a deep breath and recounted what Xiao Jibo had said earlier.

Then he asked: “What do you think about this matter?”
