Outside An Nuonuoâs old house, two women appeared, ordinary in appearance and dressed in tight clothes.
Their names were Xia Ren and Zhu Xin.
Despite their unassuming looks, in reality, they were top-tier assassins secretly trained by Jiang Xiaoyan.
For the past few years, they had been carrying out various highly dangerous missions abroad.
In the world of assassins, these two sisters had become quite infamous.
Even some foreign powers had offered to trade a small town for their loyalty.
Even Jiang Xu was unaware that Jiang Xiaoyan had such talents by her side.
The sisters exchanged a look.
âShall we take action?â
âPerhaps we should consult the young lady first. Itâs not quite proper for us to rush over here without her approval.â
They had long noticed something off about their young mistress recently.
A little investigation had revealed the reason why.
For their young mistress, they had, for the first time, come to the house of their romantic rival without Jiang Xiaoyanâs orders.
Zhu Xin took out her phone and dialed Jiang Xiaoyanâs number.
âHmm?â
âMiss, we are outside An Nuonuoâs old house.â
On the other end of the line, Jiang Xiaoyan fell silent.
These two assassins had been adopted by her father from an orphanage when they were just three years old.
Ever since, they had been trained relentlessly.
The education they received from a young age was to protect Jiang Xiaoyan, even at the cost of their own lives.
Jiang Xiaoyan obviously understood what Zhu Xin meant by those words.
But after merely three seconds of silence, Jiang Xiaoyan said, âCome back.â
Her tone allowed no room for doubt.
Itâs true she fancied Jiang Xu.
But she never resented An Nuonuo.
How could anyone bear to hold a grudge against such a kind and adorable girl?
Moreover, if she really did it, she would never have a chance with Jiang Xu in this lifetime.
Xia Ren and Zhu Xin were rarely taken aback.
But they dared not defy Jiang Xiaoyanâs order and obediently left.
ââââââ
What Li Yuanjuan said made sense and was irrefutable.
In the end, Li Yuanjuan symbolically wailed twice, marking the end of the challenge.
At this moment, Jiang Xu had already walked in with two groomsmen.
An Feng stood atop the stairs, looking down at Jiang Xu and said, âMarrying my daughter wonât be that easy. Drink this liquor first, then weâll talk.â
Everyone saw that from the bottom step to where An Feng stood, each step was adorned with a glass of white liquor.
Fu Yanjie couldnât help but be astounded, âThatâs so much white liquor, at least half a catty in total. Can you handle it?â
Jiang Xu offered a wry smile.
He hadnât expected the first challenge to be so hard.
However, he wouldnât back down.
Now that things had come this far, no matter how difficult, he wouldnât retreat.
Jiang Xu bent over, picked up the first glass, and drank it in one go.
âHuh?â Jiang Xu looked at An Feng with confusion.
He noticed a faint smile playing at the corners of An Fengâs mouth.
Jiang Xuâs heart was reassured.
The father-in-law really does care for his son-in-law.
What sort of liquor was this? It was nothing but water.
It was all for show.
Thus, within one minute, Jiang Xu had drunk all the âwhite liquorâ laid out on the stairs.
After finishing, he remained unfazed, as if nothing had happened.
Jin Xiansheng and Fu Yanjie were both shocked.
When had Jiang Xu ever become so good at holding his liquor?
Jiang Xu turned to them and said, âWhat are you standing there for? Come on up.â
The two men quickly followed.
When they reached An Nuonuoâs bridal chamber,
they saw three bridesmaids blocking the doorway.
At this point in the wedding, bridesmaids typically set challenges for the groom.
The groom must pay a certain price in order to enter.
Bai Xiaoya opened her mouth.
Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Xu took a step ahead.
He directly pulled out the super-sized red envelope he had already prepared.
It was a custom-made one, as big as a backpack.
Inside each red envelope, there was two hundred thousand yuan.
One for each person.
It completely overwhelmed the three bridesmaids.
Jiang Xu said with a smile, âLadies, please let me in.â
âOh, alright.â
âPlease come in.â
The three bridesmaids unconsciously, in a daze, stepped aside.
After Jiang Xu entered, Bai Xiaoya reacted, âAh, we havenât even asked him any questions.â
Wang Xiaoyuan also felt it was a pity, âHe got off easy.â
Chu Youwei barely smiled, âItâs the first time Iâve heard of giving bridesmaids red envelopes by weight.â
Two hundred thousand in cash probably weighs about five kilograms.
Really nobody can beat that.
Although all three of them are well-off, holding the hefty cash in their hands feels pretty good.
Jiang Xu walked into the bedroom.
He saw An Nuonuo sitting with bent legs in the middle of the bed.
His breath immediately froze.
An Nuonuo in front of him was so beautiful he couldnât begin to describe her with words.
Especially those clear and bright eyes, as if they encompassed all the stars in the night sky.
At that moment, Jiang Xu felt as if time had stopped.
In his eyes, there was nothing but An Nuonuo.
An Nuonuo felt the same way.
From the moment Jiang Xu walked in, her gaze stayed on him, unwilling to move away even slightly.
The man she loved to her core.
After two and a half years of love, he was finally going to marry her and take her home.
If it werenât for Li Yuanjuanâs instructions not to get out of bed on her own, she would have run to him already.
Jiang Xu took firm steps, walking steadily towards An Nuonuo.
At that moment, silence surrounded them.
They could hear each otherâs heartbeats.
âNuonuo,â Jiang Xu stood in front of the bed, his eyes full of deep affection, âIâm here to marry you, come with me.â
âOkay~â An Nuonuo reached out her hand.
But just as she extended it halfway, Bai Xiaoya blocked it.
She sat down in front of An Nuonuo and looked at Jiang Xu with a giggle, âBoss, taking my Nuonuo away isnât going to be that easy.â
Jiang Xu said irritably, âI already gave you such a big red envelope, isnât that enough?â
Bai Xiaoya, âThat was to let you in, but taking Nuonuo away, thatâs a different price.â
Goodness gracious.
Jiang Xu exhaled, âGoodness gracious.â
Truly evolved into the ranks of the capitalists.
âThen tell me, what do I need to do to take Nuonuo with me?â
âYou just need to answer three questions,â Bai Xiaoya said with a smile, âThe first question, after you get married, will you bully Nuonuo?â
Jiang Xu, âAre you talking about bullying in a serious way or in a not-so-serious way?â
âOf course I wonât in a serious way, but definitely will in a not-so-serious way.â
An Nuonuoâs face immediately blushed.
Bad brother, how can you say that.
Chu Youwei also blushed slightly, but still pricked up her ears.
Elaborate on the not-so-serious bullying, a friend of mine wants to know.
Bai Xiaoyaâs eyes shone brightly, âThen the second question, after you get married, who will have the final say on big and small matters at home?â
Jiang Xu said without hesitation, âOf course itâs Nuonuo, from now on her words at home will be heaven, imperial edicts, everything.â
All three bridesmaids were satisfied with Jiang Xuâs answer.
An Nuonuoâs eyes also swirled with moving brilliance.
Bai Xiaoya, âWell, the last questionâ¦â
