Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend - Chapter 609

Chapter 609: Chapter 609: They Really Are a Family

In the kitchen.

An Nuonuo and Chu Youwei were cooking.

Housekeeper Su Cheng also came in.

Officially, she was there to help out, but in reality, Mr. Jiang had arranged for her to keep an eye on Chu Youwei.

Although the girl seemed harmless and delicate,

it’s always best to be cautious.

The heart is separated by the belly.

If she harbored any ill will and poisoned the food while An Nuonuo wasn’t paying attention, that would be an irretrievable situation.

Bai Xiaoya and Wang Xiaoyuan definitely wouldn’t know how to cook.

The best they could do was to cheer from the sidelines.

At most, they might hand over a dish or something.

At night, with the first glimmers of city lights, stars dotted the sky, and moonlight poured down like liquid silver.

“Time to eat.”

“Wow, it smells so good.”

“This cooking is impressive.”

An Nuonuo and Chu Youwei had made ten dishes and one soup, each dish looking delicious and well-prepared.

“Most of them were made by Sister Chu,” An Nuonuo said with admiration, “Sister is so talented, her cooking skills are much better than mine.”

“Not at all,” Chu Youwei said modestly, “I can only make some simple dishes. I’m afraid I’ve made everyone laugh.”

Mr. Jiang smiled and said, “You’ve already done very well. Let’s eat.”

An Nuonuo poured drinks for everyone and then raised her glass first, “I’m so happy to have met Sister Chu today, let’s all have a drink~”

Mr. Jiang rarely saw An Nuonuo so lively, it seemed she really liked Chu Youwei.

Of course, no matter whether Chu Youwei was related to An Nuonuo by blood or not, her background had to be thoroughly investigated.

A few hours earlier, Mr. Jiang had already discreetly sent someone to investigate.

Even though Liu Dahai was currently in Mei Country, the entire intelligence network was already established, and it wasn’t dependent on any one person to function.

Chu Youwei ate in a manner very similar to An Nuonuo’s, polite and genteel, chewing slowly and carefully.

In contrast, Wang Xiaoyuan was quite ‘rude’, making Mr. Jiang shake his head.

Feeling offended, Wang Xiaoyuan retorted discontentedly, “What’s that look for, are you disgusted by your sister?”

Mr. Jiang raised his hands high, “Not at all, not at all.”

Wang Xiaoyuan, “Hmph!”

Mr. Jiang tasted the food Chu Youwei had made, and indeed it was very good, no less delicious than what An Nuonuo had made.

The girls kept praising effusively, making Chu Youwei quite embarrassed.

No sooner had they finished eating than An Nuonuo’s phone rang.

“It’s dad.”

Suddenly, everyone stopped talking, and the room fell silent.

An Nuonuo turned on the speaker, took a deep breath, and asked, “Dad, are the results out?”

“Yes, they’re out,” An Feng’s tone was heavy.

Both An Nuonuo and Chu Youwei involuntarily held their breaths, clenched their fists, and stared at the phone screen.

Continuing, An Feng said, “Miss Chu… indeed is your cousin.”

Tears instantly filled Chu Youwei’s eyes and streamed down her face.

An Nuonuo’s own expression was quite complex, stiff in place, unsure of what to say for a moment.

Bai Xiaoya handed Chu Youwei some tissues.

“Thank you~” Chu Youwei’s voice was hoarse.

An Feng sighed, “To tell the truth, it was my older brother’s family who wronged you. Do you have any thoughts now about returning to your family?”

“Since they abandoned me back then, there’s no need to go back now,” Chu Youwei’s voice was soft yet firm.

An Feng had guessed she would say this and spoke, “That’s fine, not recognizing your parents is okay, but you can’t not recognize your uncle’s family. We’ll talk about it more after we go back.”

“Sis~”

As soon as An Feng hung up the phone, An Nuonuo couldn’t help but hug her, and she too started crying.

Such a dramatic turn of events was unexpected by everyone.

Chu Youwei seemed somewhat at a loss.

Jiang Xu gave Bai Xiaoya and Wang Xiaoyuan a look, then walked towards the backyard.

It was time to give the two sisters some private space.

The three of them sat down in the backyard, and barely had they done so when Bai Xiaoya’s lips started to move non-stop.

“What a coincidence!”

“I knew it, the moment I saw them I felt they were very similar, and they really are sisters.”

“The connection between blood relations is just too magical.”

“Jiang Xu, you’re lucky, to have gained such a beautiful sister. From now on, won’t you be able to embrace one on each side?”

Jiang Xu made a gesture as if he was going to hit her, “Keep spouting nonsense and see if I don’t withdraw my investment.”

Bai Xiaoya quickly pleaded for mercy, “I was wrong.”

Jiang Xu turned his head to glance in the direction of the living room, his gaze flickering, as if he was pondering something.

Inside the living room, the two sisters had been crying for a good while before they stopped.

“Sister.” An Nuonuo wiped her tears, “Have you been in the orphanage all these years?”

“Yes.” Chu Youwei stopped crying and forced a smile, “The children there and the headmaster have all been good to me.

After growing up, there have been quite a few charitable people sponsoring me, and I worked part-time during the holidays, so it was actually not too bad, I didn’t suffer too much.”

Chu Youwei spoke lightly, but An Nuonuo could hear the difficulties and hardships in her words.

A girl.

A very pretty girl, without the support of family.

The things she had to face while working alone, one could imagine.

“Sister, let me handle the orphanage matters.” An Nuonuo spoke softly, “Brother Xu and I have established a charitable foundation, we can allocate funds from it.”

“Really? That’s great, I, on behalf of those children, bow to you.”

Chu Youwei said and was about to kneel before An Nuonuo.

An Nuonuo was so frightened that she quickly stopped her, her face full of distress, “Sister, I won’t let you suffer anymore.”

The determination was clear in the young girl’s crisp voice.

Now, she had the ability to change things.

“I’m about to graduate.” Chu Youwei wiped her tears, “I can support myself, and…

I should at least get tenth place in the School Beauty Contest, and the prize money isn’t small.”

Originally, she had aimed for first place.

But now that An Nuonuo had promised she would take care of the orphanage matters, Chu Youwei’s pressure was significantly lessened.

“Sister.” Chu Youwei held An Nuonuo’s hand, “Tell me about your childhood and… your relationship with Mr. Jiang.”

“Okay.” An Nuonuo’s eyes shimmered with a light called ‘happiness’ as she began to recount.

Before long, it was almost midnight.

An Nuonuo wanted Chu Youwei to stay the night, but she refused, “No, it’s okay, the hotel I’m staying at is nearby, just a few minutes’ walk, and there’s no need to walk me.”

An Nuonuo waved vigorously at Chu Youwei, “Then be careful on your way, and remember to message me when you arrive.”

“Okay~”

Only when Chu Youwei’s figure had disappeared did An Nuonuo retract her gaze, looking somewhat downcast.

Jiang Xu wrapped his arm around her shoulders, “I’m feeling a bit jealous, you know; your mind is all on your cousin now.”

An Nuonuo spoke softly, “Brother, sister has had it too hard.”

Meanwhile, after walking a distance, Chu Youwei was stopped by a black-clad person who suddenly appeared.
