Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 78: Auntie, how could you eavesdrop?

It didn\'t taste as bad as she had imagined.

The smell wasn\'t appealing, but it tasted okay.

Jiang Xu picked up another piece and brought it to her mouth.

"Can I do it myself?" An Nuonuo said in a low voice.

She felt a little uncomfortable being fed like this.

Jiang Xu: "Your hands are dirty, let me do it."

"My hands are clean." The girl replied, sounding a little hurt.

Jiang Xu felt a strong urge to comfort her.

Under Jiang Xu\'s insistence, An Nuonuo\'s cheeks were constantly filled.

All the durian was finished.

After a few minutes, the girl\'s eyes sparkled, "Seems like, the pain has really diminished."

"Right?" Jiang Xu smiled, "There\'s another one outside, you can have it tomorrow."

"Thank you." An Nuonuo sincerely said.

No one else knew how much pain she had been in just a while ago.

Since it had always been like this every time before, she had endured it to not worry her mom.

She would drink some brown sugar water and just tough it out.

If Jiang Xu hadn\'t come over, she didn\'t know how much longer she would have had to endure.

Jiang Xu laughingly said, "So, how do you plan to repay me?"

The intensity in his eyes made An Nuonuo afraid to meet his gaze.

The temperature in the room seemed to rise suddenly.

Her voice timid as a mosquito\'s, "W-what do you want me to do?"

This time, she didn\'t reject him!

Jiang Xu instantly became excited.

He tried to soften his voice, "All my life, I have never truly intertwined my fingers with a girl\'s.

Can you fulfill this small wish of mine?"

Originally, Jiang Xu wanted to ask for something more daring.

But considering An Nuonuo might not accept it.

So, he started with a smaller request that might be acceptable.

As the saying goes, familiarity comes with time; soon, it would be like driving a car - by the fourth time, you can experience autopilot.

That was the principle.

"I, I, I." The girl\'s face was burning hot.

She didn\'t know how to respond to Jiang Xu\'s proposal.

Jiang Xu seized the moment, "I mean nothing else, just want to experience it.

I don\'t have many girl friends. Since we are friends, you won\'t be so stingy, right?"

An Nuonuo bit her lip, still hesitating.

This was too embarrassing.

Not just holding hands, but intertwining fingers.

Isn\'t this something only couples do?

Did Jiang have some other thoughts?

An Nuonuo suddenly felt her mind was a mess.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Xu sighed, "Forget it, I was being too unreasonable.

It\'s okay, worst comes to worst, I\'ll get a girlfriend in the future, then I can experience it.

All right, I should go now."

Saying that, he made as if to get up and leave.

In his heart, he mentally counted to three.

Just as he reached two, An Nuonuo spoke up.

"I agree."

Her voice was so low, Jiang Xu almost didn\'t hear it.

Jiang Xu quickly sat back down.

He wanted to laugh.

But he held it in.

He reached out his hand, but glanced at the door.

The door was closed.

Behind the door, Li Yuanjuan surely wouldn\'t be so bored as to listen in, would she?

But just to be safe, Jiang Xu got up to open the door.

"Auntie, you..."

As he opened the door, Li Yuanjuan stumbled, almost falling to the ground.

She quickly regained her balance, appearing rather embarrassed.

But she quickly thought of an excuse, "Oh, I was cleaning the room, you opened the door just as I was wiping it.

No problem, you two chat. Don\'t mind me, haha."

An Nuonuo couldn\'t resist covering her face with a quilt.

Jiang Xu showed a face of speechlessness.

Auntie, I didn\'t think she was so into gossip, too.

Closed the door properly.

She surely wouldn\'t be eavesdropping again, would she?

He sat back down on the edge of the bed.

Gently pulled off the quilt that was covering An Nuonuo\'s head.

Her face was turning a bright red again.

Jiang Xu liked watching the shyness of a young girl. It was a sight he never tired of.

Laughing heartily, he said, "Let\'s continue our previous conversation."

"It\'s getting late, you should head home."

Thanks to Li Yuanjuan\'s interruption, her courage had instantly shrunk tenfold.

She then decided to go back on her word.

Jiang Xu couldn\'t help but wish to slap himself.

Why would he interrupt himself by opening the door for no reason?

Even if they were overheard, it wouldn\'t make a difference.

No, that\'s not right.

Opportunities like this were hard to come by.

If he missed it, getting her consent would definitely be more difficult in the future.

"An Nuonuo, do you know what happens when you\'re very happy and then experience a huge disappointment?"

An Nuonuo: "Huh?"

Jiang Xu made up an explanation on the spot: "You\'d become depressed, leading to a reduction in blood flow and insufficient blood supply to the brain.

Then, problems would arise in various organs of the body.

Next, it\'d influence your study, your home, and even my future.

So, please agree to what we were talking about."

An Nuonuo was dumbfounded.

It couldn\'t be that serious. Was it really...?

Seeing her still hesitant, Jiang Xu had no choice but to play his trump card.

"Zhou Qingyue probably wouldn\'t mind. Otherwise, I\'ll go find her."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the young girl extended her slender jade hand toward Jiang Xu.

Her hand was as delicate as jade, her skin as fair as snow, and every joint exuded a dynamic beauty.

Under the light, it emitted a faint luster.

The young girl drew her legs up and buried her head in her knees.

A feeble voice emerged: "Hurry up, just a short while."

From her voice, one could tell just how shy she was at the moment.

Jiang Xu immediately grabbed her hand, their fingers interlocking.

She hadn\'t been doing much heavy work lately.

Her callouses were gone, making her hands a little plumper.

A girl\'s hand was so soft, it felt like there wasn\'t a single bone in it.

Holding it was like grabbing a lump of jelly just taken out of the fridge.

While An Nuonuo acted like an ostrich.

Jiang Xu maximized his single-lifetime skill level.

He quickly took out his mobile phone, opened the camera, and took over a dozen photos.

Hearing the sound of the shutter, An Nuonuo hastily raised her head.

Immediately she became a bit flustered: "You rascal, you can\'t take photos. What if, what if..."

She paused without providing any reasons.

She forcefully tried to withdraw her hand: "Let go, that\'s enough."

Why would Jiang Xu just let go so easily?

He thought quickly and had an idea right away.

On purpose, he shifted the topic: "Do you know what the Five Virtues are?"

An Nuonuo replied: "Benevolence, righteousness, sincerity, persistence, and intelligence."

Jiang Xu: "Do you know how I understand the Five Virtues?"

An Nuonuo shook her head.

Jiang Xu: "Liking young girls, pitying the weak is benevolent;

Liking the girl next door, accompanying her as she matures is righteous;

Liking mature women, regardless of their marital status, without disguises is sincerity;

Liking women above thirty, not abandoning them as they age is persistence;

Liking fictional characters, not resisting their beauty despite them not being real is intelligence.

These are the Five Virtues that I adhere to—benevolence, righteousness, sincerity, persistence, and intelligence!"
