Chapter 46 Shock: My Female Desk-mate Actually Did This Behind My Back!

An Nuonuo's shrill scream gave Jiang Xu quite a start.

He turned to see a vibrant and irresistibly youthful figure.

She was dressed in the white maxi dress which Jiang Xu had bought for her.

Just by admiring her from behind, she seemed flawlessly radiant and ethereal.

"What are you doing, you scared me," Jiang Xu uttered somewhat speechlessly.

An Nuonuo flushed and said, "You.. Why aren't you wearing a shirt?"

More precisely, Jiang Xu was shirtless.

Jiang Xu: "It's so hot, most guys would just wear shorts."

An Nuonuo: "You're being indecent."

Jiang Xu: "Little sister, maybe you got one thing wrong. This is my place."

An Nuonuo: "..."

Well then.

She was momentarily confused, and she forgot about it.

Nevertheless, she stamped her foot and said, "Anyway, it's always your fault."

Jiang Xu: "..."

Indeed.

Even the most beautiful and gentle girl could be unreasonable sometimes.

Speechless, Jiang Xu finally put on a shirt saying, "All right, turn around now."

Only then did An Nuonuo slowly turn around.

"Huh?"

Jiang Xu shook his head, was he startled, or was it a hallucination?

He took another look.

Oh damn!

"An Nuonuo, you, you, you!"

Now, it was Jiang Xu's turn to be shocked, left speechless.

At this moment!

What stood before his eyes.

Was a girl with flawless skin, bright eyes with a beautiful smile, gentle and intelligent demeanor, long flowing hair, and graceful figure.

A girl who was the personification of all the ideal characteristics.

She didn't have to do anything.

Just her standing there was like a priceless masterpiece.

This sudden scene had given Jiang Xu a significant jolt.

Shock: The female student at my table did this behind my back!

Seeing Jiang Xu in this state.

An Nuonuo nervously clutched her dress: "Is it... not pretty?"

Jiang Xu came back to his senses.

He took a step forward.

Up close and personal, the captivating face of An Nuonuo had an even more profound impact.

In this period.

Under Jiang Xu's constant provision, she had gotten rid of malnutrition.

Her face was filled with vibrant rosy color.

She had chubby cheeks, looking fluffy and adorable.

"What made you want to change your hairstyle suddenly?" Jiang Xu asked.

"Because, I wanted to make some changes. Doesn't it look good?"

There was deep insecurity in her voice.

Despite getting some attention from a few guys on the way here.

Her long-term lack of self-confidence couldn't be turned around all at once.

Jiang Xu intended to wait until he had made An Nuonuo his.

And then get rid of those thick bangs of her.

But now, she made the change on her own.

Although it was unexpected for Jiang Xu, he could accept it.

There was no way he would talk her out of this confidence and make her return to her old self.

He just lightly laughed and said, "It's very beautiful, just like a fairy.

Now, I declare that the title of the school beauty for the next two years is yours."

Hearing this, An Nuonuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it didn't look bad, it was fine.

Whatever Jiang Xu said about the school beauty, she didn't give it much thought.

Nor did she believe she could ever achieve that level.

The unsealed An Nuonuo was too eye-catching.

To the point where people would wish their eyes could stick to her, 24/7.

It took a great amount of willpower for Jiang Xu not to succumb to her charm.

"Wait for me here." he said.

After that, Jiang Xu ran out.

An Nuonuo was somewhat puzzled.

Then she obediently waited in place.

Although An Nuonuo was quite curious about Jiang Xu's room.

She had the tact not to touch anything.

She didn't even sit down and kept standing.

When Jiang Xu returned and saw her still standing there.

She couldn't help asking, "Have you been standing this whole time?"

An Nuonuo nodded.

"Why don't you sit?"

"You didn't ask me to sit, and besides, isn't it impolite to sit around in someone else's room without permission?"

Seeing her adorably stunned expression, Jiang Xu felt a surging tenderness towards her.

What an adorable fool this girl was.

He couldn't help but vigorously tousle her hair.

Only after messing up her hairstyle did he feel satisfied.

"You're such a silly girl. With a brain like yours, you're bound to be fooled by others in no time."

Sulking, An Nuonuo quietly defended herself: "I'm not silly."

"Here, put this on."

"A mask? Why should I wear this?"

"To temporarily obscure your beauty, lest it interferes with our money-making later."

An Nuonuo had the look of a question mark on her face.

However, her most prominent trait was obedience.

Or rather, she was obedient in front of Jiang Xu.

Without questioning him further, she obediently put on the mask.

Jiang Xu then took her away.

Riding his bicycle, they arrived at the Vegetable Market.

"How much for the pork, boss?"

"Nine yuan and fifty cents per jin."

"I'll take ten jin. Could you give me a discount?"

"Okay, I'll give you a discount of twenty cents per jin."

"Great, thanks, boss."

"How much for the eggplants, boss?"

As An Nuonuo watched Jiang Xu expertly haggling with the stall owners, she was somewhat taken aback.

Soon, he was carrying a fair amount of vegetables.

Unable to contain her curiosity, An Nuonuo finally asked, what are we doing?

Jiang Xu smiled and said, "Making box lunches to sell at the Internet cafe."

This was an idea he'd had several weeks ago.

The Internet cafe was at its peak at that time.

Business was booming on normal days.

Not to mention now that summer vacation had started.

Taking a medium-sized Internet cafe as an example.

Two hundred computers.

Even if only forty people ordered meals.

That was already a considerable amount.

Considering the five or six Internet cafes nearby, there was no need to worry about business.

At this point, not many people had caught onto this business opportunity.

He could make a good profit first.

In terms of meat.

Jiang Xu bought ten jin of pork, and fifteen jin of pork belly.

Then some vegetables, chili peppers, and others.

Altogether, everything cost just under two hundred yuan.

Then, they bought some disposable containers and chopsticks.

The two of them lugged their plentiful purchases back home.

Then, the two got busy.

An Nuonuo washed the vegetables, cut them, prepared the rice.

Jiang Xu was in charge of the cooking.

A dish of braised eggplant, a dish of spicy chicken cubes, a dish of stir-fried cucumber with meat, a dish of stir-fried tomatoes with eggs, a dish of stir-fried pork with chilies.

They would start with these five dishes on the first day.

As for the soup, they simply made a seaweed and egg drop soup.

By the time they finished, the rice was also ready.

The two began packing the meals.

All the food amounted to sixty-six meals.

If all the meals were sold, they could make five hundred and twenty-eight yuan.

After deducting costs, they could still earn three hundred yuan.

In this way, each takeout box had a profit of a little more than three yuan, not even ten yuan.

Jiang Xu told An Nuonuo, "Starting from today, I need your help.

For every meal sold, I'll pay you five yuan. Is that okay?"

"No." An Nuonuo shook her head, "You're providing the cost, the venue, and the idea.

I'm just helping, I can't take that much. Two cents is enough."

Only she could be so foolish as to voluntarily lower her own compensation.

They had those big foam boxes at home.

Using two of them, they packed away the boxed meals.

Loaded them onto the electric tricycle.

Oh, and there was also...
