All three girls held the same thought.
The air suddenly became incredibly quiet.
Then, they all nonchalantly closed their eyes again.
Well, letâs just pretend we didnât just wake up.
However, their tightly curled toes under the blanket still betrayed their true inner thoughts.
The next day, sunlight shone on An Nuonuoâs face.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
Her head still felt a bit swollen, with a moment of blankness.
Then it gradually began to clear.
Right after, An Nuonuo noticed something unusual about her body.
When she lifted the blanket, her jade-like skin instantly took on a pink hue.
Looking at Jiang Xu, who was fast asleep beside her, she had actuallyâ¦
Jiang Xu suddenly opened his eyes.
He only saw the back of An Nuonuoâs head.
A waterfall of black hair rhythmically rippling.
Jiang Xu showed a smile of relief.
It wasnât in vain that he had trained her for two and a half years, at last she was getting the hang of it.
But it still wasnât nearly enough.
Most of the time, An Nuonuo needed Jiang Xu to lead her.
Without guidance, she was like turning off the GPS, becoming a headless fly.
Her current proactiveness was mainly due to the effects of alcohol not having completely worn off yet.
Jiang Xu wasnât idle either.
He took out his phone and replied to some messages.
The first one was from Avi.
Sent at half past ten last night.
It was about the premiere data of âThree Lives, Three Worlds, Twenty Miles of
Peach Blossomsâ.
The TV showâs ratings on the TV station for the first two episodes reached 3.58â².
It broke the record for Huang Tai over the years.
On the Nuomi Video website, the showâs performance was equally dazzling.
The play count for two episodes was as high as sixty million.
Nuomi Videoâs play count is at least watching one-third of an episode before it counts as a click.
So this click count is water-free.
The first episode of the series was free, the second required membership or an individual payment of two yuan to watch.
Just last night, the number of people who became members for this show reached more than six hundred thousand.
There were also more than one hundred thousand who chose to pay per episode.
Opening Weibo next.
The top ten trending searches were all related to Zhou Qingyue and this show. Jiang Xu kept scrolling down and at the twenty-sixth position, he saw âHunter in the Cityâ trending.
And its rise was very fast.
Eighty percent likely they had spent money on it.
It was just that the popularity of the show was now completely overshadowed by âThree Lives, Three Worldsâ.
Jiang Xuâs initial face-off with Lifuzhen ended with his victory.
But this woman was not likely to give up easily.
The battles to come might be even more fierce.
Two weeks later, Mei Zhu launched two new phones.
One low-end, priced between 899 and 1099-
One mid-range, priced between 1299 and 1699.
Due to their high cost-performance ratio, trendy appearance, and full functionality.
They were a sensation as soon as they went on sale.
Hundreds of thousands of units in stock were sold out in an instant.
Jiang Xu also spent a few days at the factory.
Due to his involvement, the time for smartphones to become universally popular had moved up significantly.
Meanwhile, this also resulted in Desk Anâs failure to rise domestically even to this day.
It also caused Nokia, which should have been exiting the market around this time, to still thrive relatively well.
Now, what Jiang Xu had to worry about was the issue of sanctions.
So these past few days, he had visited over a dozen cities in the country. He invested in many local companies related to smartphone component manufacturing.
The earlier he took preventative measures, the less powerless he would be
when the day came.
Summer was blazing hot, and the cicadas incessantly buzzed.
There was just half a month left until summer vacation.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo walked under the scorching sun, each holding an ice cream, eating as they went.
Neither of them held an umbrella.
With air conditioning available nowadays, people liked to hide inside and bask in the cool air during summer.
Over time, this could easily lead to health problems.
After all, humans, like plants, require sunbathing to increase their own âyangâ energy and blood circulation.
Many young girls, in pursuit of beauty, carried umbrellas everywhere and even wore long-sleeved sun protective clothing in the summer, fearing even a touch of sunlight.
This actually was not conducive to good health.
Jiang Xu couldnât manage others, but with An Nuonuo, most of the time, he wouldnât allow her to use an umbrella.
As long as she didnât sunbathe for too long, she wouldnât get tanned.
Plus, basking in the sunlight could make someone appear more positive and upbeat.
Of course, there might be some who would argue and ask if the construction workers who sunbathe every day feel positive and upbeat.
â â Iâm finished,â An Nuonuo licked her lips to get the last bits of ice cream and couldnât help but look at Jiang Xu, âHusband, I want more.â
âNo more,â Jiang Xu refused, âYou can only have one a day, any more is bad for the stomach.â
-just one more, one more would be best,â An Nuonuo pleaded with her hands together, âPlease, please, youâre the best, husband.â
Jiang Xuâs defenses instantly crumbled, and his lips curled in a smile that was harder to suppress than an AK: âFine, just one more then.
After saying that, he took An Nuonuo to a roadside stand and bought another Lamb Brand ice cream.
Out of all the ice creams, Jiang Xu felt this brand was the tastiest.
He had been eating it since he was a child.
As for the ice cream assassin of the future, he didnât even give it a glance.
-What are we doing tonight?â the girl asked while extending her tender tongue to lick the white ice cream.
It was now afternoon, and there werenât many people on the street.
Besides Jiang Xu, this adrenaline-pumping scene was witnessed by no one else. â â Letâs go back to school,â Jiang Xu said, âI want to spend the weekend at the dorm and get a long sleep.â
The school environment was nice, possessing even more of a sense of life than the villa area.
Jiang Xu had been very busy recently, and his sleep quality wasnât as good as before.
Moreover, he hadnât had an in-depth nighttime conversation with An Nuonuo in two weeks.
A gun that isnât used for a long time will rust.
Once it rusts, its lethality will decrease.
First, rest for a day, then sharpen the gun.
âOh, okay,â An Nuonuoâs eyes whirled around, apparently deep in thought.
They headed back to school.
When they arrived at the dormitory entrance, An Nuonuo suddenly said, âAh, Iâm almost out of that thing, you go up first, Iâll go to the store to buy some.â Jiang Xu didnât think much of it and just nodded, âAlright, go ahead.â It wasnât until she saw Jiang Xu go upstairs that An Nuonuo sneaked off to the store like a thief.
She just happened to see Xia Xiaozhan.
âNuonuo, want some ice cream?â Xia Xiaozhan waved her over.
âYes, yes, yes,â An Nuonuo nodded repeatedly, excitement clear on her little face.
She grabbed a large bag and filled it with many different ice creams and crushed ices.
Insisting on paying for them,
she then grabbed Xia Xiaozhanâs hand, âXiao He, letâs go eat at the dorm, is Mengmeng there?â
-Sheâs there,â Xia Xiaozhan nodded, âBut why do you want to eat in our dorm?â
