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

Chapter 147: Dressing up our little home (additional update)

Translator: 549690339

The Secret Base he and An Nuonuo had been working on was now complete.

Hearing this news, Jiang Xu was quite surprised.

It was finished much sooner than he had anticipated.

He had anticipated it to take another five or six days.

So, he informed An Nuonuo about the news.

On hearing it, An Nuonuo seemed very happy, too.

Without bothering about their meals, they both immediately rushed off to the site.

When they arrived outside the house.

They looked up and saw the elegant exterior resembling a small villa.

Inside.

The fragrance of the Osmanthus flowers planted in the courtyard was the first thing that caught their scent.

There was also a semi-open garage.

Upon entering the house, a large foyer was immediately in sight.

The entire house was decorated in a modern and simplistic style.

The main color scheme was off-white.

As soon as An Nuonuo entered, the smile on her face never faded.

Frankly speaking, the house was definitely not as grand and luxurious as hers.

But she felt it was perfect, imbued with a sense of warmth.

The sofa was milky white.

Both floors were fitted with floor heating, so they could walk barefoot in the winter.

After they finished touring the first floor, they proceeded to the backyard.

The backyard was also built according to An Nuonuo’s specifications.

The overall layout was somewhat similar to that of the office building,

but took up a bit less space.

The first floor was Jiang Xu’s, and the second floor was An Nuonuo’s.

The second floor was mainly decorated in pink.

The bed, sofa, walls, etc., all featured pink or similar shades.

An Nuonuo’s eyes sparkled like stars as she lovingly touched each piece of decor.

Every corner was designed according to her preferences.

There was a semi-enclosed balcony with curtains.

They could sit here and drink tea or take in the scenery, and there was even a small bed.

In summer, they could sleep here if they wanted to.

Then they moved on to the bathroom,

which was equipped with a separate dry and wet area, and even a bathtub.

“Why is there a step at the window?” An Nuonuo curiously asked Jiang Xu.

Without changing his expression, Jiang Xu replied, “You could sit here to do laundry, or sit there to take a bath…”

He added in his mind, “You could also kneel there…”

“Oh, so that’s why.” An Nuonuo nodded, without a shred of suspicion.

Then they came to the bedroom.

There were a large wardrobe, a vanity, but the bed wasn’t bought yet.

Outside was a small balcony with a view of a river.

Finally, they arrived at the rooftop.

The waterproofing and other necessary work had been done.

They had also built a canopy with acrylic roofing.

On rainy days, they could sit under the canopy, enjoying a pot of tea, inviting a few good friends to join them.

It would create a unique ambiance.

After touring the entire house, both were quite satisfied.

Major appliances such as air conditioning, washing machine, water heater, and range hood had already been installed.

The sofas for the two floors were gifted by Fu Xinghan.

All they needed now were a bed, refrigerator, and television, and they could move in.

Excitedly, An Nuonuo said, “Let’s go eat first, and then we can go furniture and appliance shopping.”

“Yes,” Jiang Xu nodded his agreement, “Let’s make our home comfortable.”

An Nuonuo was a little shy.

But she had no grounds for argument.

The house deed did indeed bear both their names.

It was indeed their home.

However, she knew that what Jiang Xu meant by “our home” was something else entirely.

He was such a tease, always trying to take advantage of her.

Both were eager to furnish the house.

So, they grabbed a quick bite of spicy hot pot at a roadside stall,

Then they headed to a large furniture city nearby.

The money for the furnishings, as they had previously agreed, was provided by An Nuonuo.

Jiang Xu had no intention of disputing this with her.

After all, he wasn’t as flush as she was at the moment.

They needed a total of four beds for the two-story house’s bedrooms and guest room.

They bought two beds that were one point eight by two meters, and two that were one point five by two meters.

To which, along with the four mattresses, they landed a bill of twelve thousand yuan.

Then they went to the electrical appliances mall, and placed an order for two fifty-inch televisions.

At that time, a fifty-inch television was quite costly, costing seven thousand yuan.

They also needed a refrigerator for both the ground and upper floors, and a washing machine.

Altogether, they spent thirty-six thousand yuan.

After payments were made, the shop would deliver the goods to their door, including installation.

Right next to the electrical appliances mall was a supermarket.

They purchased some other necessities, such as pots, bowls, spatulas, milk, and the likes.

They carried all the bags and parcels back home.

Jiang Xu saw An Nuonuo, who was still looking very excited, and asked, “Why didn’t you buy any snacks?”

He had seldom seen An Nuonuo eating snacks.

Even though she was now quite wealthy, with hundreds of thousands of yuan in her bank account.

She would at most eat some fruit.

You should know at this age, girls usually can’t stop munching.

They are open to all kinds of snacks, and milk tea and the likes.

An Nuonuo blinked and said, “If you are full, you don’t need to eat snacks.”

She said it so matter-of-factly.

An Nuonuo was still An Nuonuo.

She hadn’t become extravagant just because she had money now.

Not long after they came home, the deliverers arrived.

It took them a bit over an hour to set everything up.

The beds they bought didn’t have any smell, a few days of ventilation and they’d be good to accommodate folks.

An Nuonuo was busy cleaning up.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xu was making a list of what was still missing at home.

They would buy them the next day.

Items such as tea sets, kettle, towel, electric fan, etc.

After he finished writing, An Nuonuo had already cleaned the second floor and was now taking care of the ground floor.

Her long hair was tied up, her skin was like white jade.

Under the light, she exuded a faint glow.

Even in her simple sporting apparel, her good figure couldn’t be concealed.

At the age of eighteen, she was in the prime of her womanly development.

Youthfulness and positivity filled the place.

Jiang Xu couldn’t stop staring at her.

She was genuinely beautiful.

And had an amazingly good figure.

An Nuonuo noticed Jiang Xu’s stare, she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable: “Why… why are you always looking at me.”

Jiang Xu: “How do you know I’m looking at you, if you’re not looking at me?”

An Nuonuo knew she couldn’t win an argument with Jiang Xu.

She snorted lightly and ignoring him, she continued cleaning.

At half-past nine in the evening.

Both of them sat on the ground floor, with satisfaction written all over their faces.

The house was pretty much set up now.

There were still small things missing, but they could be added later.

Jiang Xu poured two cups of cola: “Come on, let’s toast to celebrate the completion of our new home.”

“Cheers.”

The two cups clinked together and then they drained their drinks.

An Nuonuo looked at the time and got up: “It’s too late, I need to go home.”

“Alright, I’ll walk you home.”

The weather was starting to chill now, by November, they would have to wear long clothes.

Nuonuo’s home was not too far from here.

It was just a ten-minute walk.

Before they knew it, they had arrived.

An Nuonuo felt a slight reluctance in her heart, though she did not show it.

She waved at Jiang Xu: “You should go back now, be careful on the road, and remember to text me when you get home.”

When a girl says such things to you, it doesn’t necessarily mean she likes you.

But if she doesn’t say them, she definitely doesn’t like you.

Jiang Xu smiled: “You’ve forgotten something haven’t you?”
