Chapter 6 Investing in Your Fiancé
At this moment, the system got confused.
"Host, why are you treating the villain's leg? He has been paralyzed and has no chance to come into contact with the hero and heroine, which is more beneficial to the mission."
Without waiting for Jiang Yu's answer, the system, which had downloaded several melodramatic novels, started to speculate excitedly.
"Or does the host want to tamper with the villain's leg on his way to get treatment, turning him into a vegetable or something? This seems to be a way to prevent the villain from killing the hero and heroine. Host, I support you!"
Seeing that the system was about to send Zhou Xiao away without her saying a word, Jiang Yu felt mixed emotions.
"I thought you were sending me to be your blood bag, but it turned out not to be you, system, you are the living devil!"
It is Zhou Xiao's blessing to be targeted by this system.
This time, Jiang Yu sympathized with the villain for a second.
Her eyes passed over Zhou Xiao's red ears and looked at the newspaper the man was holding, and at the cabinet next to him, which also had a lot of newspapers on it.
Even when he was paralyzed in bed, he still read the newspaper and paid attention to the developments outside. No wonder he was able to turn the tide later and make his business bigger than that of the male and female protagonists.
After all, the male and female protagonists at that time were already famous entrepreneurs. If Zhou Xiao didn't have some ability, he wouldn't even have the chance to meet them.
Thinking about how later the male and female protagonists’ businesses were squeezed out by him and had no room for survival, he also killed the two people who had the halo of the protagonist.
Recalling the plot, Jiang Yu wondered whether Zhou Tinghuai's sudden death in the original text was related to the male and female protagonists, otherwise why would Zhou Xiao keep chasing after the two of them.
He also felt that Zhou Xiao, who was in a difficult situation, could expand his business while taking revenge, and was a good investment target.
With such talents, if she can win over people to help her make money with her business, wouldn't she be able to have more free time to enjoy herself with her besties?
Zhou Xiao is her fiancé, so it’s normal for him to help, right?
Jiang Yu's expression softened.
"It's not good for you to lie in bed like this. Are there any wheelchairs for sale here?" she asked.
She had just returned to China, so it was normal that she didn't understand many things, and no one in the room suspected it.
After saying this, Zhou Xiao raised his dark eyes and looked at her.
“Don’t waste your money.”
As soon as Jiang Yu arrived, she bought a lot of things for the family and even sent him to get his leg treated. It was their first meeting and he was not worth her spending so much money.
"How can it be a waste? Besides, I just got here and I want you to walk around with me and talk about the situation in the village."
In the future, you have to coax people to be willing to work, so Jiang Yu softened her attitude and gave them an extra smile.
Her eyebrows were curved, and her already delicate and pretty face was even more beautiful, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Zhou Xiao's throat suddenly felt dry as if it was burning. His fiancée could have lived a good life in a foreign country with favorable conditions, but she came to such a remote village to find him and wanted to stay.
How could he say something like that that would spoil the fun by not accompanying others?
Zhou Tinghuai, who saw it clearly from the side, quickly spoke up.
"Comrade Jiang, our county hospital has wheelchairs for sale."
Jiang Yu nodded: "How about foreign exchange coupons?"
"Foreign exchange coupons are very valuable. Many people out there want them. I can just exchange them with them." Zhou Tinghuai was still a little excited.
This is a foreign exchange coupon. Anyone who takes it to the Friendship Store will brag about it for several months. Can he touch it now?
Seeing that Zhou Tinghuai had a way to exchange money, Jiang Yu returned to the room and gave him 500 foreign exchange coupons.
"Is that enough?"
"Too many."
Zhou Tinghuai thought that his future sister-in-law really trusted him and gave him so much money just as she said so. He was so touched!
“Buy the best wheelchair, and please buy some daily necessities for me at the state-owned store.”
On the way here, Jiang Yu heard the driver mention that there was no Friendship Store in the county town.
As for the wheelchair, since she wanted to look like a young lady returning from overseas, she had to buy the best. Zhou Xiao was worth her initial investment.
After hearing what she said, Zhou Tinghuai took the money and promised to buy the best.
Now her importance to the Zhou family is evident. Jiang Yu is sure that Zhou Tinghuai will not fool her. After nodding casually, she looked at Zhou Xiao who was lying there.
"Once you buy a wheelchair, I'll have my bodyguard take you to the capital for treatment."
Well, this way she can have her best friend accompany her openly.
Zhou Xiao, who had no idea what Jiang Yu was thinking, looked extremely moved. When he looked at Jiang Yu, his eyes were so deep that they almost sucked people in.
Jiang Yu looked away and felt a little hot on her face for no reason, thinking that this pair of eyes was quite pretty.
After meeting the person and saying what needed to be said, Jiang Yu went back to the next room on the pretext of wanting to rest. Chen Zhi put the meal on the table beside the bed and followed her out.
"Then brother, I'll go to the county to buy some things first." Zhou Tinghuai said as he carefully put the foreign exchange coupons in the inner pocket of his clothes.
Zhou Xiao then withdrew his gaze from outside, called him, took out some papers and bills from the drawer of the bedside cabinet and handed them to him.
“Send these articles to the several publishing houses I wrote for, and then go to Kuiba to ask if the agricultural products collected a few days ago have been sold.”
Collecting some dried goods and fruits from various villages to sell was a route that Zhou Xiao had opened up before the incident. Zhou Tinghuai had helped to collect goods before and understood the procedures.
"Also buy some insect repellent powder."
There are many insects in the countryside, so she has to stay at home. Without this powder, she might not be able to sleep well at night and will be scared by the insects.
Zhou Tinghuai nodded and took the thing in his hand with familiarity.
He said seriously before turning around.
"Brother, your sister-in-law came back from abroad to find you, and she didn't despise your condition. You have to get better quickly and treat her well, so that you can be worthy of your sister-in-law."
Zhou Xiao paused, and the next second he said with a serious face: "We are not married yet, she has the right to cancel the engagement at any time, don't use this title to kidnap her."
Zhou Tinghuai raised his hands in surrender, fearing that he would be attacked by his brother's cold energy, and quickly set off for the county.
The room returned to silence. Zhou Xiao smelled the remaining fragrance and thought that the person was now in the room separated from him by a wall.
The man looked calm on the outside, but his heart was in turmoil, as if a fire was burning.
He calmed himself down and took out a pen and paper.
He now has limited ways to make money, but he can't do nothing. He tries his best to make Jiang Yu live more comfortably at home.
Maybe Jiang Yu doesn't need it, but she has to do what she should do. At least she shouldn't let her family become a burden.
In the next room, Chen Zhi said with squinting eyes as soon as he entered the door.
"I didn't expect the villain to be so good-looking. He's the type you like, skinny when dressed but muscular when undressed, serious on the outside but sexy on the inside."
As he spoke, he nudged Jiang Yu's shoulder with his shoulder, openly teasing her.
A true best friend would have dozens of GB of unspeakable chat history. Jiang Yu didn’t act pretentiously and admitted it straightforwardly.
"It looks good, but I wonder how it would look with a shirt and a shirt clip."
Chen Zhi chuckled, then felt regretful.
"We planned to go to the male model shop during our trip, but they wore it before we even saw anyone. What a pity. Now, we have to take the only chance."
Of course, the two of them just watched and didn't do anything that they shouldn't do.
They say that, but they still want to live a few more years and don't want to get involved with anything dirty.
"Are you not satisfied with Zhou Tinghuai? That's not right. You like his look. But it's okay to change. Changing your taste is good for your physical and mental health." Jiang Yu gave her bestie support.
Chen Zhi hugged Jiang Yu's hand tightly, and the two played for a while, then lay on the bed and chatted.
"Actually, Zhou Tinghuai is not bad. I like him quite a bit."
"I can't stay in the original owner's family any longer. I'm also afraid that if I stay there for too long, I'll be exposed and they'll find out that I'm different from the original owner. Marrying into the Zhou family is the best outcome. I can still be with you."
Seeing Jiang Yu frowned and was about to speak, Chen Zhi knew what she would say, so he raised his eyebrows and said.
"Don't worry, with my strength, no one can force me. Zhou Tinghuai is even weaker than me, not to mention that we have you."
The corner of Jiang Yu's mouth twitched. Zhou Tinghuai was handsome and tall, but he also had muscles in his hands. He didn't look tired after moving things back and forth just now. He didn't look weak at all.
Jiang Yu, who knew best how strong Chen Zhi was, looked carefully at her best friend's face and saw that there was no sign of reluctance. However, she still felt a little uncomfortable sending her best friend off to get married so soon.
"If Zhou Tinghuai makes you unhappy, just tell me. I'm here. I'm the Zhou family's golden nugget. I'll support you."
Shen Zhi nodded.
"Of course, as a man, I can teach him other things, but if he can't do that, I will divorce him immediately and live with the eldest lady."
