Yesterday, when Jiang Xu found out that Xiao Jibo had made a public confession, he, like everyone else, thought it was real affection for Chu Youwei.
But today, the spectacle was even bigger than yesterday.
And the fact that he had hired so many professional photographers made it seem a bit off.
With this in mind, Jiang Xu took out his phone and went online.
As expected, among the top twenty trending topics on major platforms, three to five were related to Xiao Jibo.
The answer was almost self-evident.
Pursuing Chu Youwei was a ruse, the truth was to ride on the buzz and craft an image.
Right now, it was all about promoting Xiao Jibo and crafting his image.
Creating an image of a passionate, handsome, and high-quality man.
This was just like the internet celebrities a few years later.
No matter how it started, in the end, it would turn into livestreaming product sales.
Jiang Xu laughed.
This kid was bold, riding on the popularity of his own circle.
He said to the bodyguard accompanying him, âGo invite him over later.â
âYes!â
Half an hour later, Xiao Jibo was sitting in the car.
He was quite anxious as he said, âMr. Jiang, hello, youâre my idol; Iâm so fortunate to meet you.â
Jiang Xu responded indifferently, âLetâs stop here with this matter, donât continue it.
If you want to craft an image, find someone else, donât target my fiancéeâs cousin.â
âAh?â Xiao Jibo blinked: âMr. Jiang, what are you talking about? I donât understand.â
Jiang Xu remained silent, just staring at him.
Xiao Jibo had a face full of innocence and bewilderment, tinged with unease.
Jiang Xu laughed, âAlright, thatâs all, Mr. Xiao, please get out of the car, I have other matters to attend to.â
âOh, oh.â Xiao Jibo nodded vigorously: âThere might be some misunderstanding about me.
But I can assure you, my feelings for Miss Chu are sincere and genuine.â
Jiang Xu neither acknowledged nor denied it.
Xiao Jibo got out of the car.
Only after Jiang Xuâs car had driven away did he let go of all the various expressions on his face.
What replaced them was a trace of depth as he murmured to himself, âQuite smart, catching on so quickly.
But what of it, you canât do anything to me.â
He was intent on riding the wave of popularity, and he had already made many preparations.
Now online, everyone regarded him as a deeply passionate good man, brave for love.
He had many supporters.
If Jiang Xu came out to stop this now, he would be seen as breaking up lovers, as using power to bully the weak, as a big shot picking on the smallâ¦
In short, the advantage was his!
Xiao Jibo straightened his collar and returned to the square, his voice faintly spreading as he went.
âI want success, and Chu Youwei⦠I want her too!â
Jiang Xu arrived at Chu Youweiâs livestreaming room and saw that she was a bit down.
It was normal, this was her first time encountering such an affair, not knowing how to deal with it.
âMr. Jiang, youâre here.â Chu Youwei saw Jiang Xu and quickly stood up.
Her reverence towards Jiang Xu was quite strong.
Jiang Xu didnât care about these formalities and said, âLivestream from home for the next few days, Iâll take care of that man.â
âIâm sorry.â Full of apologies, Chu Youwei said, âI havenât created any value for the company, and Iâve even brought trouble.â
Jiang Xu laughed, âDonât say that, youâve already made the company quite a bit of money.â
Recently, the company had gotten Chu Youwei more than a dozen advertisements.
The ad fees were at least two million each, with the highest being over eight million.
Plus daily livestreaming, which also brought substantial income to the company.
Jiang Xu saw Chu Youwei as the best candidate to replace Zhou Qingyue.
In terms of acting, Chu Youwei couldnât surpass Zhou Qingyue, but she could exert effort in other areas.
After comforting her a few more words, Jiang Xu returned to his own office.
Let Liu Dahai dig deeper into this Xiao Jibo.
In the afternoon, An Feng made a call to Jiang Xu.
âGood afternoon, Uncle.â
âJiang Xu, bring Nuonuo to the city center right now.â
âHas something happened?â Jiang Xu asked.
An Feng played coy, âYouâll know once you bring her over.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOkay, I understand.â
After hanging up, Jiang Xu sent a message to An Nuonuo and then went to pick her up from school.
At the school gate, An Nuonuo was already waiting there.
Wu Mengmeng and Xia Xiaozhan were also present.
An Nuonuo stood in the middle, dressed in a floral dress, with a slender figure.
After several years of loveâs nourishment, Nuonuoâs figure had become even more plump and curvaceous.
Yet, she still had a face that was both innocent and cute.
Whoever looked at her would be dazzled.
Anyone who saw her would say it was unfair.
Today, she even had a freshly picked flower tucked in her hair, adding a touch of playfulness.
When she saw Jiang Xuâs car, she waved, said something to the two girls beside her, and then ran over.
âBrother Xu, whatâs the matter?â
Seeing her look at that moment, Jiang Xu wrapped his arms around her without a wordâ¦
The back seat of the car was completely separated from the front.
Unless one made some more vigorous movements, those in the front would not be able to perceive it.
âYouâre annoying,â the girl lightly punched Jiang Xu, her face blushing.
âHehehe,â Jiang Xu laughed, âWho made you look so beautiful today? Youâre entirely to blame.â
The girl rolled her eyes at Jiang Xu before asking, âHas something happened?â
On the phone, all Jiang Xu had said was for her to wait at the school gate.
âIâm not sure,â Jiang Xu shook his head, âUncle An asked me to take you to the city center, so there might be something.â
âWhat could Dad possibly need from us?â An Nuonuo felt a bit strange.
Then her expression changed slightly, âCould it be⦠that Dad has found another wife?â
An Feng: ???
Jiang Xu stroked his chin, pondering seriously, âItâs possible.
Could it be that Uncle An has really found another woman and now wants us to help him figure something out?â
An Feng: Having you two is my good fortune.
An Nuonuo clenched her teeth and remained silent.
If An Feng really did such a thing again, she definitely wouldnât forgive him.
Jiang Xu thought to himself, An Feng wouldnât be that outrageous, would he?
Dealing with two women was already exhausting enough for him, did he have the energy for a third?
But it was hard to say.
After all, at his level, countless women tempted him every day.
If An Feng wasnât careful, getting captivated by one wouldnât be impossible.
Jiang Xu asked, âIf he really⦠what do you plan to do?â
An Nuonuoâs hands were tightly clasped, her knuckles turning somewhat white, her breathing slightly quick, âIf he really finds another woman, Mom and I will disown him.â
Jiang Xu said nothing to dissuade her.
After all, An Nuonuo and Chen Yue had already given An Feng a chance before.
If he still behaved like that, even Jiang Xu would feel embarrassed to speak on An Fengâs behalf.
Following that, the two of them in the car fell silent, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense.
After more than an hour, the car arrived at the location specified by An Feng.
As soon as they got out, they saw An Feng already waiting there.
âStrange,â An Feng looked at the two of them, âWhy do you both look so serious? Did you have a fight?â
