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

Chapter 1016: Chapter 107: Targeted

“You’re good at this!” As soon as the call connected, Lifuzhen showered Jiang Xu with praises:

“I already know about the Summit No. 1, and I’m boarding the plane now.

Around eleven tonight, I should arrive there.”

Jiang Xu was astonished, “What are you coming over for?”

Lifuzhen replied, “Obviously, to come and experience…”

“…” Jiang Xu interjected, “Six!”

This woman was always so ‘blunt’.

But Jiang Xu had gotten used to it.

And she only showed this side of herself in front of Jiang Xu.

Lifuzhen continued, “When we meet tonight, remember to bring more of that Summit No. 1.

I want to see if it’s really as powerful as you claimed.”

Jiang Xu assured her, “Of course, I never make false claims. I’m just afraid that you might…”

Lifuzhen boldly declared, “Whoever begs for mercy is a dog. I can’t wait for you to go all out…”

Jiang Xu was speechless.

After ending the call, Bai Xiaoya, Jiang Xiaoyan, Zhou Qingyue, and Zhou Mengmeng each reached out to him one after another.

Each filled with all kinds of provocative banter.

Among them, Jiang Xiaoyan was particularly arrogant, picking fights at every turn.

She saw that Jiang Xu had no way to deal with her now, so she went all out with her bold talk.

Jiang Xu silently noted down these provocative behaviors in his little notebook.

Indeed, he was powerless against them right now.

But once the child was born, they would know what fear was.

Lastly, it was An Nuonuo who called.

She said, “Brother Xu, I’ve made dinner plans with some friends tonight, so I’ll trouble you to look after the child.

It might be very late when I return, or if it’s too late, I’ll just spend the night at my friend’s place. Don’t worry about me.”

“Heh.” Jiang Xu snorted coldly, “Miss An Nuonuo, I suspect the real situation isn’t as you describe.”

An Nuonuo protested, “It’s exactly as I said. What, do you think I’d lie to you?”

Although An Nuonuo tried to hide it, Jiang Xu still detected a hint of insecurity and guilt in her tone.

Needless to say, An Nuonuo mentioned this now, likely having seen the promotion for Summit No. 1.

Fearing she’d be bullied again tonight, she hurried to escape early, looking to lay low.

It happened to be convenient for Jiang Xu to see Lifuzhen tonight.

However, to maintain his image, Jiang Xu pretended to be angry and disagreed with An Nuonuo going out that night.

“Ah? What are you saying, Brother Xu? The signal is bad. I’m hanging up now…” Before he could reply, An Nuonuo hurriedly ended the call.

When Jiang Xu tried to call back, he got a message that the phone had been switched off.

He laughed helplessly.

This was probably An Nuonuo learning from being picked on too often and coming up with strategies.

That evening, at the top floor of his own six-star hotel.

Jiang Xu met with Lifuzhen.

Before they started interacting, she brought him a piece of news, “Three of the world’s top financial families have set their sights on Agricultural Country’s stock market.

They are currently strategizing, planning a major cleanout. Be careful.”

Jiang Xu raised an eyebrow, “Are you talking about those three notoriously infamous financial family groups?”

“Mhm.” Lifuzhen nodded lightly, “Actually, this is the main reason I came to see you.

Otherwise, do you really think I’d be the kind of woman who likes to get…”

Jiang Xu thought, aren’t you though?

Currently, there are three top-notch financial families in the world, each hailing from different countries.

In the past ten years, through their joint efforts, they have purged the stock markets of many countries.

The losses caused amount to at least a trillion dollars.

It’s hard to say whether there are shadows behind this.

The combined strength of these three families is something no force in the world would dare to disregard, including Jiang Xu himself.

“This is troublesome,” Jiang Xu frowned, pacing back and forth.

The combined funds of those three top family groups were at least over two trillion dollars.

If all this money was aimed against his own stock market, there was no way he could win with his own strength.

And even if he did win, his own strength would most likely drop by eighty to ninety percent.

That would give others the chance to take advantage of his vulnerability.

“Ah, forget all that for now,” Lifuzhen leaned in, smiling, “It’s getting late, let me first experience the power of Summit No. 1.”

Jiang Xu waved his hand, annoyed, “With such a big crisis at hand, do you think I’m in the mood for that?”

There was a sly look in Lifuzhen’s eyes as she insisted, “I’m definitely willing to help you.

Actually, I was planning to contribute fifty billion and stand with you.

But since you’re not appreciative, then I guess I’ll leave.”

She then pretended to walk away.

Jiang Xu’s eyes immediately lit up.

Why didn’t you say so earlier?

If you had said you were contributing fifty billion to help me earlier, there was no need for so much talk.

Just get started.

Without another word, Jiang Xu picked up Lifuzhen and headed toward the bathroom.

He chose the bathroom because if things got messy, they could just rinse it off with water.

At the same time, Jiang Xu did not forget about pressing matters.

While… he also picked up his phone and dialed several numbers.

First was An Feng.

Upon hearing the news, he immediately said that he could mobilize eighty billion in cash.

Then came Zhou Qingyue, Zhou Mengmeng, Chu Youwei, Bai Xiaoya, and Ikaris.

Each of them contributed a significant amount of money, totaling three hundred billion.

Of course, Jiang Xu didn’t tell the whole truth to Ikaris, fearing the news might leak.

He only mentioned that he urgently needed a large sum of money.

Ikaris agreed without hesitation, contributing ninety billion.

Jiang Xu was shocked.

To dish out ninety billion like it was ninety dollars for an ordinary person, so decisive.

He wondered just how wealthy this woman could be.

Such a huge sum of money given so readily.

She could easily be worth over five hundred billion or even up to a trillion dollars.

In a flash, Jiang Xu had gathered three hundred and fifty billion in funds.

But it still wasn’t enough.

Finally, he called Jiang Xiaoyan.

However, he didn’t intend to borrow money from her, instead warning, “Those three financial families are cunning as foxes.

I’m worried they might try a diversionary tactic.

They are broadcasting intentions to target me, but they might be targeting you, or possibly Luo Feiyu as well. Be cautious.”

Jiang Xiaoyan’s tone became serious, “I understand. How much can you mobilize right now?”

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xu replied, “Currently, I’ve gathered three hundred and fifty billion from various sources.

Additionally, I can access three hundred billion personally, and another trillion from the public account.”

Jiang Xiaoyan was adamant, “Not enough, that’s not even close. If they are really targeting you, you definitely can’t win with just that much money!”
