Chapter 918 - 9
Zhou Mengmeng held her breath after speaking, her eyes tense as she watched Jiang Xu.
She had confessed her true feelings, now it was up to Jiang Xu to agree.
Of course, she was not content just letting Jiang Xu accompany her occasionally.
But at the beginning, she definitely couldn’t make too many demands.
It had to be done gradually.
Like digging a well, you can’t reach the bottom with a single scoop.
It had to be done slowly.@@novelbin@@
Zhou Mengmeng was confident; she just needed more opportunities to interact with Jiang Xu.
With all the knowledge she had accumulated over the years, she was sure she could make Jiang Xu become infatuated with her, keep coming back, and unable to extricate himself.
Maybe even bring her into his family?
Jiang Xu didn’t answer immediately but fell into deep thought.
Seeing Jiang Xu’s indecisive look, Zhou Mengmeng got a bit angry.
So she leaned over…
“Hiss!”
Jiang Xu’s pupils suddenly dilated, “Mengmeng, don’t…”
Zhou Mengmeng pinched Jiang Xu’s thigh, showing a do-or-die attitude.
Making Jiang Xu have no choice but to agree, “Fine, I agree, now let go.”
Zhou Mengmeng was delighted inside.
But since it had already started… it must be seen through to the end.
After a tough negotiation… things were much better now.
Jiang Xu grabbed the lukewarm water from the bedside, took a big gulp, and then said, “However, there are some things that need to be clarified beforehand.”
“First, only the two of us can know about this. If a third party finds out, whether intentional or not, our agreement will automatically be terminated.”
“Second, I can’t give you a formal status, but I can provide some resources.”
“Third, I can’t guarantee how much time I can spend with you, I can only try my best.”
Zhou Mengmeng didn’t have time to speak, she just nodded softly.
After a few hours, Zhou Mengmeng went to the bathroom again.
When she returned and checked the time, it was already five in the morning.
Dawn was approaching.
Although she still very much wanted to stay with Jiang Xu.
She had to leave now, Zhou Qingyue might return at any moment.
Before leaving, Zhou Mengmeng gave Jiang Xu her first kiss.
Watching Zhou Mengmeng’s shapely figure in a nightgown, Jiang Xu was momentarily dazed.
The situation seemed to be moving in an uncontrollable direction.
Oh well, come what may, take it one step at a time.
Because of Zhou Mengmeng, Jiang Xu didn’t get out of bed until past ten in the morning.
Zhou Qingyue woke up a little past eight.
Her head was a bit sore, which was strange.
Had her alcohol tolerance decreased recently?
Just one drink and she was intoxicated.
Zhou Mengmeng was still sound asleep.
This cousin usually acted so sweet and congenial.
But her sleeping position was not so graceful, just like a small frog.
Zhou Qingyue tapped her, “Get up, we have a lot to do today.”
Zhou Mengmeng: “…”
Zhou Qingyue applied more force, and Zhou Mengmeng, still groggy and half-asleep, muttered, “I’m so sleepy, let me sleep a bit more, sister~”
With a thick coquettish tone.
She hadn’t slept much last night.
Though she hadn’t lured him to a trap, it had still taken quite a bit of talking.
Now, she just wanted a few more hours of sleep.
“Mengmeng, you usually don’t oversleep,” Zhou Qingyue eyed her suspiciously. “Did you do something behind my back last night?”
A woman’s intuition is indeed very sharp.
Zhou Mengmeng suddenly became much more alert, but still pretended to be drowsy.
She turned over and muttered, “It was because you kept hitting me in your sleep, and you kicked off the covers too. I couldn’t sleep well at all.”
“Ah?” Zhou Qingyue blushed. “Did I really do that?”
Zhou Mengmeng nodded. “Yeah, you go ahead and get busy. I’ll sleep a bit more.”
“Okay,” Zhou Qingyue said, feeling somewhat guilty.
Lunch was ordered as takeout.
Zhou Mengmeng couldn’t get up to cook, and Zhou Qingyue’s cooking wasn’t great either.
Currently, in the domestic takeout sector, Baoleme occupies an absolute market share, as high as seventy-eight percent.
And most of the company’s stocks are held by Jiang Xu.
Now, the takeout sector has also become a goose laying golden eggs in Jiang Xu’s hands.
After lunch, Zhou Mengmeng and Zhou Qingyue went ahead to the venue of tonight’s party to check things out.
Jiang Xu, however, stayed at home to sleep.
He needed to build up his strength.
On the way, Zhou Mengmeng was thinking about how to get her cousin drunk tonight, the kind that leaves her unconscious.
This way, she would have a chance to spend time alone with her Brother Xu tonight.
Tonight, she wanted to take her relationship with Jiang Xu a step further.
Giggle.
But she was also a bit anxious.
Can a small pond accommodate a dragon?
Won’t it ruin the pond?
Nevermind, those were matters for later consideration.
At six-thirty in the evening, Jiang Xu arrived at the event venue.
Employees from both sisters’ companies were there, along with many entertainment reporters.
Yes, all under the Nuomi Group.
In terms of entertainment reporters, over eighty percent are under the Nuomi Group.
Jiang Xu had organized this mostly for the safety of the artists under his company.
Tonight, both sisters were wearing evening gowns.
Zhou Qingyue was in a black one, while Zhou Mengmeng was clad in white.
Together in black and white, the two sisters made all the men’s eyes in the venue stick to them, unable to look away.
If only they could have both sisters together… that would be simply incredible.
After Zhou Qingyue made a speech, she invited Jiang Xu on stage.
The crowd erupted into thunderous applause.
Whether they were eighteen-year-old girls or forty-year-old women, their cheeks flushed with excitement upon seeing Jiang Xu.
This man had created too many business miracles, he was truly a godlike figure.
If not for the ample security, they would have swarmed him long ago.
After the speech came the raffle, and then various major shareholders of the companies toasted table by table.
Zhou Mengmeng played a little trick.
She brought a dual-chambered jug, pouring red wine for Zhou Qingyue and cola for herself.
Because the crowd was large and the atmosphere intense, no one noticed the anomaly in her glass.
And even if someone did, they wouldn’t dare expose the big boss.
After a round of toasts, Zhou Qingyue’s head was already spinning.
Zhou Mengmeng also sneaked off to the restroom to apply a drunk makeup look.
After coming out, she continued to surreptitiously pour drinks for Zhou Qingyue.
Eventually, Zhou Qingyue slumped onto the table, completely unconscious.
Zhou Mengmeng’s pretty eyebrows slightly raised in satisfaction.
Excellent, cousin would obediently sleep tonight, causing no interference with her plans.
She silently apologized to Zhou Qingyue in her heart.
Tonight’s ‘feast’ would be hers alone to savor first.
What do you think?
