Chapter 856: Chapter 856: 856: Old Double Standard

“Hello, I am his wife; he is taking a bath right now.”

The gentle and charming voice reached Chen Guo’er’s ears.

She couldn’t help but grip her phone a bit tighter.

An Nuonuo’s voice was too pleasant; calling it the sound of heaven wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

Even as a woman, she found it extremely comforting to listen to.

However, she was not willing to concede defeat to An Nuonuo; the position of Mrs. Jiang should have been hers.

Originally, when she and Jiang Xu became desk mates, their relationship was very good.

If she had continued to stay by Jiang Xu’s side, it wouldn’t have been An Nuonuo’s turn at all, the girl from the next class.

Various thoughts flashed through Chen Guo’er’s mind in a second, and she said, “So, you are Mrs. Jiang; hello, I’m Chen Guo’er, Jiang Xu’s desk mate from freshman year of high school.”

“Oh,” An Nuonuo realized, “Is there something important? I’ll have him call you back later if you’d like.”

Chen Guo’er: “It’s nothing much; just an old classmate wondering if he got home safe. I hope I didn’t disturb Mrs. Jiang?”

An Nuonuo: “No.”

Chen Guo’er continued, “Then, would it be convenient to add Mrs. Jiang as a friend? I’d like to visit sometime when you’re free.”

An Nuonuo agreed to her request.

Thinking there was nothing wrong with that.

Shortly after the call ended, Jiang Xu came out after finishing his bath.

“Why are you awake? Did I wake you?” Jiang Xu asked somewhat guiltily.

“No,” An Nuonuo stretched out her arms, “Husband, hugs~”

That soft, sticky voice instantly pierced through Jiang Xu’s heart.

He walked forward, letting An Nuonuo hug his pelvis, her cheek against his stomach.

An Nuonuo took a deep breath.

Smelling the very sunny scent on Jiang Xu, she felt very secure and comfortable.

After a moment of tenderness, Jiang Xu asked An Nuonuo to lie down.

He placed his ear on her belly.

“My two little baby girls, are you sleeping? Were you well-behaved today?”

Then he felt An Nuonuo’s belly move.@@novelbin@@

Generally, fetal movements occur between sixteen and twenty weeks of pregnancy.

In about five more months, his two baby girls would be born.

He wondered how adorable they would be.

Surely, they would be unlike any other in heaven and on earth.

After talking with his yet-to-be-born daughters for a while, Jiang Xu hugged An Nuonuo: “Do you want it?”

An Nuonuo: “Huh???”

“I asked the doctor a few days ago,” Jiang Xu’s fingers entwined with a few strands of An Nuonuo’s hair:

“During pregnancy, it actually tends to be more strenuous for the woman than the man.”

An Nuonuo blushed, “I’m not having a hard time.”

Jiang Xu tentatively asked, “What if I’m gentle?”

An Nuonuo covered her head, not saying a word.

Jiang Xu chuckled softly, murmuring to himself, “Good daughter, daddy will be very, very careful. I’ll definitely not hurt you.”

The next day.

After watching An Nuonuo finish her breakfast, Jiang Xu went out.

Returning to Jiang Xu, he needed to visit some of the local government elites and a few of the local business tycoons.

Chen Guo’er sent a WeChat to An Nuonuo a little after eight in the morning, asking if she could visit.

An Nuonuo, without thinking too much, agreed.

At exactly nine o’clock, Chen Guo’er appeared outside Jiang Xu’s Jiang City villa.

“Wait!”

Just as Chen Guo’er, holding a gift, was about to go inside, a clear, pleasant voice came from behind.

Chen Guo’er turned her head and looked.

It was a woman who wasn’t inferior to herself in any aspect.

Except for being a few centimeters shorter, in terms of beauty, the other appeared even stronger than herself.

Chen Guo’er recognized her.

It was the recently risen “Demon Queen,” Zhou Mengmeng.

However, strangely, in front of the cameras, Zhou Mengmeng was docile and adorable, innocent and naïve.

But the Zhou Mengmeng who approached her now carried an aura of severity.

Like a sword drawn from its sheath.

“Chen Guo’er,” Zhou Mengmeng walked up to her and said bluntly, “Put away your little schemes, Jiang Xu is not someone you can provoke.”

Chen Guo’er narrowed her eyes, “It seems you are also here for Jiang Xu, so you deliberately act all innocent and naïve.”

Jiang Xu was now like Tang Sanzang’s flesh, all kinds of demons saw him and wanted to take a bite.

So when Zhou Mengmeng decided to get close to Jiang Xu, she had already made a lot of preparations.

Any woman who wanted to get close to Jiang Xu and could pose a threat to her, she would know about it at once.

Just yesterday, Chen Guo’er had met with Jiang Xu, and today Zhou Mengmeng had come to eliminate the threat.

She wanted to keep the number of her competitors to a minimum.

And not have to compete with a dozen or even dozens of people.

Of course, Zhou Mengmeng knew that others like Bai Xiaoya, Jiang Xiaoyan, Chu Youwei also liked Jiang Xu.

But there was nothing she could do about that, who let them get there first?

Zhou Mengmeng said indifferently, “Chen Guo’er, graduated from ‘Wild Deer University,’ major in management.”

“Started two cosmetics companies with loans the year before last, with an annual net profit of eighty million.”

“Just returned to the country half a month ago, wanting to develop domestically.”

“Those two makeup companies you founded were fined ten million last year for breaking foreign laws.”

“Additionally, your father was sent to prison three years ago for cooking the books, your mother…”

“Enough!” Chen Guo’er cut off Zhou Mengmeng’s words, her expression looking quite bad and tinged with fear, “You’ve investigated me!”

With such detailed information, it was impossible to investigate clearly without significant power.

Chen Guo’er couldn’t help but take Zhou Mengmeng seriously now.

This woman was stronger than her.

“I don’t want to waste words with you.” Zhou Mengmeng’s eyes flickered with cold light, “Stay away from Jiang Xu, and even more from An Nuonuo, otherwise I have ways to make your company go bankrupt within a week, leaving you heavily in debt.”

Having said that, Zhou Mengmeng walked past Chen Guo’er and entered the villa.

Leaving Chen Guo’er standing there alone, her face turning between pale and flushed.

In the end, she didn’t dare bet whether Zhou Mengmeng had the capability to bankrupt her in a week.

She could only send a WeChat message to An Nuonuo, saying she couldn’t come due to sudden urgent matters.

Then she left angrily.

————————

After visiting the “various heroes,” Jiang Xu made his way to Xu’an University.

The university was still quiet.

Recruitment would begin next summer.

According to Yang Houliang, there was no need to worry about the quality of the faculty, he guaranteed it wouldn’t be inferior to first-class universities.

However, since the school was newly established, its rating was only of an average third-rate university.

It might take several years to climb up slowly.

Jiang Xu hoped to make this university into the top tier one.

Even if his two darling daughters had average academic performance, they could still sneak in and get a diploma.

If others were to exploit backdoor admissions, Jiang Xu would be furious.

But it was different for his own daughters.

He was just doing what a father should do, what was wrong with that?
