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

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 If you like Su Ran, go chase her



The whole table of people were stunned.

Cheng An's expression quickly changed.

Jiang Yunchuan also looked at Lu Qingyan with confusion. He initially supported Lu Qingyan being with Su Ran, after all, back in high school, the whole thing between him and Su Ran was quite sensational. Although it was never explicitly said, during that period, the two studied together, progressed together, and were practically inseparable.

Just when everyone thought they would end up together after high school graduation, Su Ran turned around, took the 30 million check from Young Master Lu, abandoned Lu Qingyan, and left without saying goodbye.

It wasn't until three years later that she reappeared in Lu Qingyan's life.

Only Jiang Nanshu seemed immensely intrigued.

"Indeed, how did you know your good brother likes your Bai Yueguang? Can't handle it? There are plenty who like Su Ran, it's no big deal."

Perhaps because of the protagonist's aura, any male who interacted with Su Ran developed a mysterious fondness for her, the entire book was about the male lead seeing her cuddling with someone today, and bumping into a stranger taking her home tomorrow.

In this cycle, misunderstandings kept increasing, adding more torment to their relationship.

Before Jiang Nanshu was admitted to the mental hospital, a young nurse felt she was too pitiful and thus gave her the book to pass the time. She claimed it was to nurture the mentally challenged, helping her feel the most sincere human emotions.

Jiang suspected it was because she secretly saw the nurse cry from suffering and could not bear to see her enjoy it, so she forcefully made her share the sadness.

Unfortunately, she did not learn about genuine emotions, but she did learn plenty about the cat-and-mouse tactics between the male lead and Bai Yueguang, which helped her escape from that mental hospital.

Lost in her thoughts, Jiang Nanshu saw Cheng An remained silent for a long while and decided to stir things up further, thinking it was also a kind gesture.

"Cheng An, if you like Su Ran, just go after her. Could you please not let her interfere with me and Brother Qingyan?" Jiang Nanshu hit hard for love.

Cheng An, feeling exposed, became furiously upset, "Jiang Nanshu, what the hell are you talking about? How could I possibly go after Su Ran? Qingyan is my brother, don't try to sow discord here!"

"Brother Yan, I have no other thoughts about Su Ran. She only has you in her heart, I see her as a sister."

His explanation was so hurried it seemed like a cover-up.

Lu Qingyan, whose expression remained unchanged, said indifferently, "If you like her, go after her. I have no involvement with Su Ran."

Cheng An stared at him in shock, and after a moment, he became angry.

Yes, he was angry.

He clenched his teeth and demanded, "Brother Yan, how can you say that? Are you being fair to Su Ran? She did that for you..."

"The 30 million already settled our past, Cheng An, don't mention her in front of me again.

"Fine, fine, fine!" Cheng An laughed out of extreme anger, pointing at Jiang Nanshu, "Are you really blinded by this woman's gorgeous appearance? You haven't called off the engagement in three years, and last time you tried, you didn't go through with it. You clearly don't want to end it, do you? It's unfair to Su Ran who has been waiting for you. You don't deserve her love."

Suddenly drawn into the conversation, Jiang Nanshu: ...

Quietly took out a small mirror and admired her own stunning beauty.

"Your compliments really hit on my strengths."

Lu Qingyan: "…"

Jiang Yunchuan: "…"

The atmosphere, which had been tense, suddenly eased because of Jiang Nanshu.

Being one of the main topics, she still admired herself in the mirror.

Lifting her head, she saw Lu Qingyan and her Fifth Brother giving her a complex look.

Jiang Nanshu remembered her mission, walked over to Lu Qingyan, hugged his shoulder, and belittled Su Ran relentlessly, "Hmm, what kind of love can be dismissed with 30 million? My love for Brother Qingyan can't be measured with money. Stop insulting us. Brother Qingyan and I are the best match. Even when we go to make keys, we always get three copies made. How many can Su Ran claim?"

Everyone: "..."

"Why does she get a 30 million breakup fee? When it comes to me, even 10 million is reluctantly given—I'm so anxious about when the divorce fee will be paid."

Suddenly, Lu Qingyan pulled away Jiang Nanshu's hand and stood up with a cold demeanor and left.

Oh, he got mad.

Happy.

Jiang Nanshu showed a sincere smile and then quickly accused, "It's all your fault, Cheng An. If Lu Qingyan divorces me because of Su Ran, I won't let you or Su Ran off the hook!"

Cheng An gave her a cold look: "Crazy." He then followed and left.

"Ugh, boring, it's affecting my meal."

"Should I pretend to be sad? Never mind, turning sadness into appetite—they should understand since they've been hurt before."

So Jiang Nanshu sobbed while devouring her food, making a mess.

She swept through the whole table.

Jiang Yunchuan wanted to say that one truly heartbroken can't eat.

But seeing her enjoying her food so much, unprecedentedly, he joined her without mocking her as before.

"Yun Chuan?" Lin Yueyue's voice suddenly rang out.

Jiang Yunchuan stiffened, not even realizing that he was particularly resistant to her appearance.

Lin Yueyue glanced at Jiang Nanshu and then at Jiang Yunchuan who had no reaction. Normally, he couldn't wait to stick by her side 24/7, and he always replied to messages instantly. This time he hadn't contacted her for a whole day and night, making her extremely anxious.

Was it because Jiang Nanshu, that bitch, spoke ill of her again in front of Jiang Yunchuan?

She approached Jiang Yunchuan, her tone full of grievance: "Why are you ignoring me? I was so worried because I couldn't reach you."

"What? Short of money? Anxious because you can't find him?"

Lin Yueyue's face flushed red, it was true that nothing good happened when Jiang Nanshu was around: "My feelings for Yun Chuan are real, they have nothing to do with money! Even if he doesn't have a penny, I'd still love him!"

Jiang Nanshu was momentarily moved, was this the sincere feeling the psychiatric hospital nurse wanted her to convey?

She waved grandly, "I approve of your marriage. Having you to look out for my Fifth Brother... no, take care of my Fifth Brother makes me feel at ease."

After she finished, she even patted Jiang Yunchuan on the shoulder: "Fifth Brother, I won't disturb your sweet time with your wife, goodbye."

"Bye-bye, you two. I've got to stay away from Lin Yueyue, this pathogen—don't infect me."

Jiang Yunchuan's face suddenly turned panicked.

However, as Jiang Nanshu ran off swiftly, Lin Yueyue immediately grabbed Jiang Yunchuan's hand, crying, "Yun Chuan, did I do something wrong? Why are you so hot and cold towards me?"

Jiang Yunchuan briskly shook off her hand, his voice stiff, "No, but don't touch me, I'm a bit allergic."

Lin Yueyue: "..." How severe is the allergy that I can't even touch you?

But, feeling wronged, she didn't dare say anything.

Jiang Yunchuan was one of her cash sources; she couldn't afford to lose him.

Everything that happened in the cafeteria had nothing to do with Jiang Nanshu. After finishing her classes in the afternoon, seeing there was still time, she directly turned her steps and headed to the neighboring high school.
