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

Sitting there alone, she smiled as she watched everyone sing and dance.

She occasionally clapped her hands, but showed no intention of joining in.

Fu Yanjie nudged Jiang Xu with his elbow and whispered, “Zhou Qingyue has changed a lot.

I remember in high school, she was just an arrogant and willful little princess with an attitude as if she was the most beautiful woman in the world.

I never expected her to have such a face now.”

Jiang Xu glanced at Zhou Qingyue, noncommittal.

From his understanding of this woman, nine times out of ten, it was all just an act.

Well, to put it another way, the current Zhou Qingyue was perhaps in a dormant period.

She would only reveal her true nature after accumulating enough energy.

The sea voyage took one full day.

Jiang Xu specifically had the speed reduced.

Everyone had been very busy, especially him.

He even had a high fever due to long hours of overtime.

Now that the crisis was over, he naturally needed to relax properly.

The cruise ship would sail for a few hours and then stop for a rest.

Whenever this happened, Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie would take up their fishing rods to fish.

The girls either swam inside the cruise ship or took countless selfies against the sea.

Initially, An Nuonuo wasn’t too fond of taking photos, especially selfies.

But influenced by Bai Xiaoya, Zhang Yuanyuan, and the others, she had also grown to like taking selfies now.

However, An Nuonuo only showed her selfies to Jiang Xu and rarely posted them on her social circle.

“Hahaha, got one!”

On the deck, Fu Yanjie was overjoyed and quickly yanked the fishing rod with force.

A massive sea turtle was pulled up by him.

Fu Yanjie’s eyes sparkled as he vigorously rubbed his hands: “Lucky catch, we can make soup tonight, tonight I’m definitely going to show Yuanyuan what I’m capable of!”

Jiang Xu looked at him with disdain: “So young and already not believing in yourself, needing to rely on food to boost your strength?”

“That’s not it at all,” Fu Yanjie’s face turned red: “I was just adding luster to what’s already perfect.”

Jiang Xu: “Ah right, right, right.

Fu Yanjie: “…”

He felt that his manly dignity was being challenged but was helpless to do anything about it.

It wasn’t as though he could ask Jiang Xu to watch and prove his prowess.

Soon, Jiang Xu also caught a small tuna.

Tonight’s dinner would be sufficient for them.

“Mr. Jiang, Mr. Fu, may I ask what drinks would you two like?”

A soft voice rose from behind them.

Turning around, they saw a fair-skinned and beautiful girl in her twenties standing there.

Fu Yanjie was immediately smitten.

Jiang Xu’s gaze darkened.

Many staff members had been hired for the cruise ship.

Jiang Xu glanced at the work badge hanging in front of the girl; she was responsible for serving food and beverages.

Despite all the precautions, she ended up meeting Fu Yanjie.

This woman’s name was Lan Mei, and in his past life, she had drained Fu Yanjie’s fortune.

Having been reborn, Jiang Xu thought he could prevent them from ever crossing paths again.

Unexpectedly, they had met once more.

And judging by the look in Fu Yanjie’s eyes when he saw Lan Mei, it was evident he was interested in her.

Men are like that; when they see a beautiful girl, certain things in their DNA get activated.

If it were any other woman, Jiang Xu might have turned a blind eye.

But Lan Mei was very skillful, a top-level gold digger.

With Fu Yanjie’s intelligence, if he were targeted, it wouldn’t take long before he fell deep and could not extricate himself.

Jiang Xu had to think of a way to eliminate this risk.

Fu Yanjie was doing well now, and he absolutely couldn’t be affected by this woman again.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xu stood up and said to Lan Mei, “Come with me.”

Lan Mei and Fu Yanjie were both stunned.

Immediately after, Lan Mei’s heart surged with ecstasy.

Could it be that Jiang Xu had taken a liking to her?

If that were the case, wouldn’t she be rising to the heavens in one leap?

With this thought, she quickly followed along.

Fu Yanjie, on the other hand, was scratching his head in confusion.

For some reason, from the moment he saw Lan Mei, he had a different feeling toward her and really wanted to get to know her better.

But seeing Jiang Xu’s behavior, could it be that he was also interested in Lan Mei?

Forget it, forget it. If Jiang Xu is interested, I won’t compete with him.

What are women compared to brotherhood?

At this moment, he began to think about how to help Jiang Xu keep this matter hidden from An Nuonuo.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xu took Lan Mei to a corner.

Looking at the woman, he said with a cold tone, “I’ll give you ten million. Leave the country, and never come back.”

“What?” Lan Mei was dumbfounded.

Jiang Xu paid no attention to her reaction and pulled out a blank check, writing down a string of numbers.

To use money to solve this issue was the simplest and most cost-effective way.

Lan Mei, being a lover of money, would certainly be tempted by such a huge sum.

And indeed, Lan Mei was extremely tempted.

Although she didn’t know what Jiang Xu’s intentions were.

But ten million! Normally, she would never earn this much in her entire life.

Now, she could earn it just by agreeing to leave the country, how could she not be excited?

However, just as she was about to take the check, Jiang Xu pulled his hand back, “To prevent you from reneging, let’s sign an agreement as well.”

In the end, Lan Mei got the ten million.

As soon as the cruise ship reached Spirit Turtle Island, she would leave on her own.

A day later, they arrived at Spirit Turtle Island.

Nearly two months had passed since Jiang Xu’s last visit.

The island had changed enormously.

All sorts of buildings were springing up.

There were wide roads, neatly arranged plants and trees, and wafts of fruit scent.

These were coconut and mango trees, among others, purchased from outside and transplanted here.

The biggest difference from the last visit was that now there were a lot more people on the island.

Everywhere one looked, there were people.

Some were there for the ‘Campus Heartthrob Competition,’ others were attracted by the advertisements.

The place had evidently become a popular tourist destination, drawing many people to come and check in.

“Holy moly!” Fu Yanjie let out a delighted howl, “So many beautiful girls, look over there, hahaha, so many in swimsuits, amazing figures.”

After saying this, there was silence.

Everyone looked at Fu Yanjie with pity in their eyes.

It was at this moment that Fu Yanjie realized that his wife was also here.

He gave an embarrassed smile, and just as he was about to make an excuse, Zhang Yuanyuan had already taken action.

A scream tore through the sky.

People went down with their luggage.

The air on the island was good, with a hint of salt and sweetness.

Everyone was looking around in amazement.

The layout and architectural style here were very novel and tasteful.

Those who were here for the first time fell in love with the place instantly.

Zhou Qingyue felt a twinge of discomfort in her heart again.

This island belonged to Jiang Xu.

If it hadn’t been for her own foolishness back then, she should have been the lady of this island!
