Fetching proper text from html tags using JSoup

I want to fetch title from online bookstore. Unforunately it is fetching me something like this:

"title": "1 Jak mniej myśleć. Dla analizujących bez końca i wysoko wrażliwych"

I want to get rid of this "1", same for next books, because the next books will have 2,3,4 etc... So it should go with:

"title": "Jak mniej myśleć. Dla analizujących bez końca i wysoko wrażliwych"

I was wondering if it is possible with Jsoup or I need to think about only Java code.

Here is the fetching instruction that takes this title (I'm using for loop, that's why it looks like this)

document = Jsoup.connect(bestSellersEmpikURL).get();
List<Element> siteElements = document.select("div.productWrapper");
 for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
           ....
            String title = siteElements.get(i).select("strong").first().text();
            ...
}

Here is the site: 

<a href="/za-duzo-mysle-poradnik-dla-analizujacych-bez-konca-petitcollin-christel,p1222736270,ksiazka-p" class="img seoImage" title="Jak mniej myśleć. Dla analizujących bez końca i wysoko wrażliwych &nbsp;-&nbsp;Petitcollin Christel" rel="nofollow" data-product-id="p1222736270">

Then your problem may be solvable by simply changing 

siteElements.get(i).select("strong").first().text();

to 

siteElements.get(i).select("strong").first().ownText();

or more briefly, changing .text() to .ownText().

This will display the Element's own text and not nested element text.

e.g.,

document = Jsoup.connect(bestSellersEmpikURL).get();
List<Element> siteElements = document.select("strong.ta-product-title");
for (Element element : siteElements) {
    System.out.println(element.ownText());
}
