Chapter 785: What Brand of Plastic Bag, That Can Hold So Much?
Chapter 785: Chapter 785: What Brand of Plastic Bag, That Can Hold So Much?
“Awake, huh?” Jiang Xu smiled.
He wrapped his arms around An Nuonuo’s slender waist, sitting her on his lap.
“This comic is drawn by Zhou Mengmeng, who also uses a pen name online, called ‘Demon Queen’.”
“Ah, she’s ‘Demon Queen’?” An Nuonuo was quite surprised.
“You know?” This time, Jiang Xu was the surprised one.
An Nuonuo didn’t like comics; how would she know about this?
“I’ve bought a few comics for An Ping,” An Nuonuo explained. “I used to frequent a bookstore, and the owner always recommended ‘Demon Queen’s’ comics.”
“He said ‘Demon Queen’s’ comics are exquisite, profound, and very suitable for enlightening children.”
“When the bookstore owner talked about ‘Demon Queen,’ his expression was just like yours when you speak about her.”
Jiang Xu’s gaze flickered. “It seems her fame is even greater than I thought.”
The two then continued to look at the comics together.
As they did so, Jiang Xu’s focus uncontrollably shifted.
An Nuonuo sensed something, her cheeks reddening and heart racing. “First… first lock the door.”
Although no one dared to come in without knocking.
But what if?
“Okay.” Jiang Xu pulled open a drawer, took out a remote control, and pressed it.
The door was then locked.
Lately, Jiang Xu had been feeling lazy and didn’t want to move, so…
“Right.” While conversing with An Nuonuo, Jiang Xu said, “When you have time, could you get in touch with this Zhou Mengmeng?”
An Nuonuo: “Ah?”
Jiang Xu: “I was just looking at some of her work, and none of it has been adapted into animation yet.”
“With the quality and popularity of her work, if it could be made into an animation, it would definitely be a big hit.”
“And it would significantly benefit both Nuomimi Novel and Nuomi Animation.”
“If you have time, go find her and ask if she’d be willing to grant the rights.”
As a qualified businessman, he naturally couldn’t miss any opportunity to make money.
“Okay, I… I understand…” An Nuonuo spoke hesitantly.
A layer of fine sweat appeared on her smooth, white forehead.
Suddenly—
Both of them became rigid and fell silent.
That evening, Liu Qiang sent Jiang Xu a message, inviting him to dinner.
Jiang Xu sneered inwardly.
The old man’s intentions weren’t in the wine.
But Jiang Xu still decided to accept the invitation.
He wanted to see if there was any chance to scrape a layer off this guy.
Thinking like a bandit, but it requires skill.
As for An Nuonuo, she was off to meet Zhou Mengmeng.
Her husband rarely tasked her with something, so she definitely wanted to complete it quickly.
In the milk tea shop at Magic University.
This was also owned by Jiang Xu.
An Nuonuo sat face to face with Zhou Mengmeng.
The two girls sitting together made time seem to stop.
By their demeanors, both were of the pure and lovely type.
But as An Nuonuo was already married, she also exuded a trace of allure.
In terms of appearance, An Nuonuo was definitely the more attractive one.
Zhou Mengmeng’s advantage was being a few years younger, giving off a stronger sense of youthfulness.
But for the majority of scoundrels, An Nuonuo’s allure had the greater pull…
“Nuonuo, I didn’t expect you to invite me, I’m quite flattered,” Zhou Mengmeng said shyly, her face blushing.
Portraying a college freshman with no guile at all, a bit of social anxiety, and doing it perfectly.
An Nuonuo had not noticed anything amiss.
She smiled gently, “It’s an honor that you agreed to meet, sister, especially since you are the famous ‘Demon Queen.'”
An Nuonuo had always admired masters of the arts.
She felt that those involved in the arts were very impressive and cool.
Of course, even if all the artists in the world were combined, they couldn’t compare to a single hair on Jiang Xu’s head.
“Not really,” Zhou Mengmeng said, her face growing even more bashful, “It’s just a hobby, I don’t even know how I became famous.”
“Sister, you’re amazing, much better than me,” An Nuonuo earnestly said.
Then she took out a gift box from her bag and placed it in front of Zhou Mengmeng, “A gift for our meeting, I hope you won’t despise it.”
“Ah… this… is too precious, sister,” Zhou Mengmeng quickly waved her hands, indicating she couldn’t accept it.
An Nuonuo said, “It’s not anything valuable, please do accept it.”
“Alright,” Zhou Mengmeng’s eyes sparkled, “Can I open it to take a look?”
“Of course.”
Zhou Mengmeng opened it.
Inside was a string of bracelets.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful, thank you, sister.”
Zhou Mengmeng joyfully wore it on her left wrist and even waved it at An Nuonuo.
The smile on An Nuonuo’s face became even gentler.
Looking at Zhou Mengmeng was like seeing her own little sister at home, and she felt very happy.
“By the way, sister, I also have a little gift for you,” she said.
Zhou Mengmeng took out a small package from her bag.
An Nuonuo took it and found inside a light purple silk scarf.
“I made this myself, it’s not worth much, but I hope you like it,” she said.
“It’s beautiful, and well made,” An Nuonuo could tell the quality of the scarf as soon as she touched it.
Her look of surprise towards Zhou Mengmeng increased.
Zhou Mengmeng also liked needlework.
This discovery quickly warmed up the relationship between the two.
An Nuonuo was pleasantly surprised to find that Zhou Mengmeng shared many similarities with her.
Like enjoying needlework, cooking, and tending to plants.
And of course, watching those melodramatic TV shows.
Watching them without a peep.
What An Nuonuo didn’t know was that Zhou Mengmeng had learned all these things precisely copying her.
Long ago, she had been preparing to replace An Nuonuo.
In comparison to her sister Zhou Qingyue, Zhou Mengmeng was undoubtedly several levels higher.
After chatting for a while, An Nuonuo finally brought up her main purpose for coming.
“The authorization,” Zhou Mengmeng showed a troubled expression.
An Nuonuo said, “Is there a difficulty, sister? Just tell me, I will do my best to meet your needs.”
Zhou Mengmeng weakly said, “Giving the authorization is not impossible, but I have a condition.”
“That is, no information about me can be revealed.”
“I don’t want to become famous, I just want to quietly finish university.”
After saying this, she even showed a bashful smile.
An Nuonuo immediately felt this girl was very pure, and had not become arrogant due to fame at a young age.
She still maintained an innocent heart.
Her fondness for Zhou Mengmeng grew even more.
One could only say, Zhou Mengmeng’s acting was unbeatable, as she had deceived everyone around her.
She nodded, “Okay, that’s possible, so shall we talk about the price?”
