The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind

Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Aren’t you going to hug her? She’s almost broken. Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Aren’t you going to hug her? She’s almost broken. The onlookers were shocked by Jiang Nanshu’s actions.

It took quite a while for them to regain their voices.

“Damn, has this girl gone crazy? Lu Qingyan is still here, how dare she?”

“What’s there not to dare, some people are just born bad seeds, only knowing how to bully the weak for a sense of presence.”

“Su Ran hasn’t really done anything to her, right? Does she need to show her jealousy so openly? I can finally understand why the Jiang Family hates her and how Lu Qingyan can put up with such a vicious fiancée— I’m impressed.”

Jiang Nanshu was not at all affected by the whispers surrounding her.

Talk of hatred and intolerance could not inflict any damage on her.

Because she was intrinsically selfish, she only loved herself.

Tears welled up in Su Ran’s eyes in an instant as she looked down at the red banknotes. Jiang Nanshu was like nailing her to a board of shame and humiliating her intensely.

“Jiang Nanshu! What have I ever done to you for you to target me like this?”

Jiang Nanshu glanced at Lu Qingyan.

She found his gaze was deep and focused on her; she couldn’t discern his emotions.

[Angry? A good sign, then let’s provoke him even more, simida.]

Jiang Nanshu suddenly flashed a brilliant smile, like a vibrant red rose, passionate and flamboyant, “Sister Su Ran, people are welcoming you back to the country, only when you returned could you entice my Brother Qingyan to distraction, only when you returned could you use that aggrieved face to say you two are even, only when you returned could everyone know you are first loves, you are his Bai Yueguang, you two should be together, then what about me? The one who has given all her heart to Brother Qingyan, what should I do?”

Su Ran’s complexion changed as she looked at Jiang Nanshu’s smile, feeling momentarily uneasy.

As if Jiang Nanshu had known her thoughts all along.

She took a deep breath, looked up, and for the first time, Lu Qingyan’s attention was not on her, but on Jiang Nanshu with an investigative gaze.

Her tears began to fall in large drops, “Lu Qingyan… I never thought like that… I really, really didn’t mean to disturb your life…”

“Jiang Nanshu! You’ve really gone too far.” Cheng An shouted angrily.

He reached out and grabbed Jiang Nanshu’s slender white arm, pulling her forcefully in front of Su Ran, “Apologize to Ranran.”

His anger was so intense that veins were bulging on his forehead. It seemed that if Su Ran cried a bit more, he might want to kill Jiang Nanshu to make amends to Su Ran.

The next moment, Jiang Nanshu struggled violently, and with her other hand, she fiercely slapped his face.

Cheng An was struck so hard he turned his head, his eyes filled with disbelief, his sharp features twisting.

His eyes, bloodshot with rage, fixed on Jiang Nanshu, his chest heaving violently, “You bitch, how dare you hit me.”

“Ying ying ying, it wasn’t on purpose.” Tears came as Jiang Nanshu spoke, “Brother Qingyan, save me, it hurts so much.”

[Hehe, can’t take a little, I’ll slap you to death, just a piece of trash that knows how to bully women.]

Lu Qingyan reached out and grabbed Cheng An’s hand, his voice cool as he looked at the red mark on Jiang Nanshu’s delicate arm, “Let her go.”

Cheng An looked at him in disbelief, “Brother Yan? Have you gone mad? Your vicious fiancée not only hit me, but she also insulted Ranran, what has Ranran done wrong to become her scapegoat? And now you actually want to protect this malicious woman, are you blind?”

“The more vicious, she is still my fiancée, let go.” He exerted force in his grip, causing Cheng An to withdraw his hand in pain.

His gaze fixated on Lu Qingyan with especial annoyance.

Jiang Nanshu: “?”

What’s going on?

[You’re not shaming me harshly for Su Ran’s sake, and now you’re helping me? Something’s not right.]

After being rescued, Jiang Nanshu sobbed and burrowed into Lu Qingyan’s arms.

[I get it now, this is your game of playing hard to get, right? Using me to irritate Su Ran, aren’t you afraid of driving your wife further away?]

Lu Qingyan sometimes really wanted to know what Jiang Nanshu was thinking about all day long.

Su Ran’s gaze shattered as she looked at the two of them, her heart feeling as if it were being torn apart. In the year she loved Lu Qingyan the most, she was forced to leave him, and she found it difficult to even begin to explain the hardship of that situation.

Perhaps Su Ran’s gaze was too painful, for Lu Qingyan pushed Jiang Nanshu away and slowly said, “Stand properly, Jiang Nanshu, what you just did was not right.”

“Are you scolding me for her sake, Brother Qingyan?” Jiang Nanshu’s face showed no sign of remorse; instead, she smiled mischievously, her still-moist almond-shaped eyes curving slightly, and the red mole at the corner of her eye looking dangerously captivating as she smiled.

Red banknotes were being blown all over the floor by the wind, but no one present dared to pick them up.

Suddenly Su Ran bent down, picking them up one by one slowly.

The crowd’s disdain and insults toward Jiang Nanshu grew heavier.

Because in this matter, she was the victor, sitting high and mighty with a contemptuous attitude, successfully arousing the crowd’s sympathy for the underdog.

Lu Qingyan did not speak again.

Jiang Nanshu looked up at the sky, speechless. Hmm, playing the villain really was easy.

[Why don’t you hurry up and hold her? She’s practically shattered.]

[I wonder if I can quietly pick up a few banknotes and walk away without being noticed?]

Jiang Nanshu was considering the feasibility of this.

Cheng An pressed his tongue against the side of his face that had been slapped and pulled Su Ran to her feet, his gaze filled with bitter resentment as he stared at Jiang Nanshu: “Who said you could pick these up? If anyone should pick them up, it should be Jiang Nanshu. Do you really think the Jiang Family will protect you if something happens?”

Threats were not difficult to detect in Cheng An’s words.

Who would want to deal with Jiang Nanshu when her reputation was so tarnished?

They all preferred to stay as far away from her as possible. Over these three years, aside from not letting her starve to death, the Jiang Family hadn’t really intervened in her affairs, which made everyone aware that Jiang Nanshu only had the title of the Jiang Family’s daughter, but in reality, she was a powerless and influenceless fool.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare mock her so openly, jumping around like clowns.

Jiang Nanshu blinked her eyes, playing the victim pitifully: “I’m begging you, just kill me now. Otherwise, as long as I live, I’ll make trouble for Su Ran every day.”

“Do you think I don’t dare?” Cheng An stepped forward, wanting to grab Jiang Nanshu’s hair.

He definitely did not have an aversion to hitting women.

However, before his hand could touch Jiang Nanshu, he was pushed away by Jiang Yunchuan, who had rushed over: “Anzi, do you think I’m dead?”

Cheng An’s face turned ashen: “You’re taking Jiang Nanshu’s side, too?”

[Please don’t, I can’t afford it.]

Jiang Yunchuan’s expression changed several times before he finally said, “No matter what, she is still a young lady of the Jiang Family. If you really hit her, it would be disgraceful for our family.”

“Ha, disgrace? All of your family’s honor has been thrown away by this shameless woman. It’s true what they say about country folk lacking manners. Didn’t you also say you hoped Jiang Nanshu would roll out of the Jiang Family? What now, you’re protecting her after such a short time?” Cheng An looked at Jiang Yunchuan with scorn.

“Anzi!” Jiang Yunchuan’s voice tightened as he hurriedly stopped him from speaking further.

He carefully observed Jiang Nanshu’s expression; she looked dejected, her eyes slightly reddened.

“That was in the past. I, I will not let anyone bully her now. Nanshu didn’t do this on purpose.”

[For the love of God, please remember you’re supposed to dislike your sister. Why don’t you just kick me out of the house and save me the trouble, okay?]

Jiang Nanshu was about to burst.

This was nothing like the novels she read.

To be treated this way and still be protected, Jiang Nanshu began to wonder if she wasn’t vicious enough.

Her expression was like that of an unimpressed old man looking at a smartphone; she clearly disapproved and deeply criticized Jiang Yunchuan’s actions.

Jiang Nanshu struggled to justify herself: “Fifth Brother, you don’t need to defend me. I did it on purpose. I just can’t stand Su Ran. If she has the guts, let her convince Brother Qingyan to break off our engagement. Otherwise, I won’t let her off!”
