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

Jing University's neighboring high school is called Mingde Middle School. To get in, you either needed good grades or had donated a building to the school.

It's also the key high school that sends the most students to Jing University.

Jing University is just two streets away from Mingde Middle School.

Jiang Nanshu had bought a bag of sugar-glazed chestnuts on the way, planning to wrap them like flowers to give to Lu Qingyan.

He was head over heels.

But on the way, the temptation was too strong; he couldn't resist eating as he walked.

Until he saw high school students in red and white uniforms walking out of the school.

Jiang Nanshu knew school had let out.

But the students didn't go far; instead, they gathered in groups by the school's fish pond because that's where the campus web series was being filmed.

Jiang Nanshu was there to find Su Ran; how else to make the male lead feel bad for the female lead if she wasn't picked on?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

Crouching by the curb, she munched on chestnuts and consulted the system.

"Da Shachun, are you sure nothing's wrong on the male lead's side? I feel like something's off about him."

Da Shachun: [...]

It was tired of explaining but had grown accustomed to Jiang Nanshu's nature. Whenever someone was nice to her, she'd act like they had ulterior motives.

It patiently explained: [Host, the male lead's persona isn't a clueless domineering CEO. Initially, he's very restrained, clean, and serious about relationships. He's polite to everyone, including you and the female lead, gentle to others, well-mannered, comes from a good family, and only turned villainous because the female lead drove him mad.]

[Of course, you probably won't see him turn since you're offline after two years in the book.]

Jiang Nanshu: "…Heh, that's quite the stab."

[What, want to see him turn bad?]

Interest swirling in Jiang Nanshu's eyes, she said, "Kind of. I want to see him kill for the female lead; otherwise, it doesn't count as a true downfall in my eyes."

Da Shachun fell silent, hesitating:[Host, murder is illegal... we're upstanding citizens; we don't engage in that.]

Jiang Nanshu quickly lost interest: "Boring. Don't want to see it anymore."

She looked up across the street and then spotted a familiar figure.

Cheng An was parked at the school gate on his motorcycle, and Jiang Nanshu quickly followed him; entering the school required ID, and Cheng An just happened to have it.

Cheng An was probably there to see Su Ran, too rushed to notice Jiang Nanshu sneaking behind him, pretending to be an acquaintance.

The school was bustling.

Because the crew was filming there, many fans surrounded the school, waiting to catch Su Ran on camera.

And the reason Su Ran had become famous was simple— she relied on her looks and then joined a girl group audition abroad, debuting from the coveted center position, and after breaking her contract with her previous agency, she flew back to develop her career.

With this background, as soon as she returned, she had dramas lined up, all supported by fans of her beauty.

Unlike Jiang Nanshu's flamboyantly gorgeous features, she was clean and fresh, like a white rose dew-laden.

Later, Su Ran would quickly rise to fame with this campus web series, becoming active on the screen.

So, the more men she met, the more insecure Lu Qingyan felt, leading to their on-and-off relationship— one moment warming up, the next interrupted by a strange man sending things back to square one, the Ice Valley.

Reading the book, Jiang Nanshu couldn't figure it out.

Who says you can only love one person— why couldn't she have them all?

"Today one, tomorrow another, my husband changes every day."

Jiang Nanshu couldn't imagine what it would be like if she was the female lead, she would probably live a life drowned in ecstasy.

Maybe Jiang Nanshu's gaze was too intense, it caught Su Ran's attention.

When Su Ran saw it was Jiang Nanshu, she involuntarily stiffened, and Cheng An, following her gaze, also saw Jiang Nanshu who looked almost like a stalker.

"Damn, why won't this bitch leave us alone? Seeing her at Jing University was suffocating enough, and now she followed us to Mingde Middle School."

Cheng An immediately thought of the harsh words Jiang Nanshu had dropped, so he instinctively stood in front of Su Ran, "Ranran, don't worry, I'm here, she won't hurt you."

Su Ran took a deep breath, gently patted Cheng An's shoulder, and smiled, "Anzi, don't think so badly of others, maybe Miss Jiang has something important to discuss with me."

"What else could she want with you? It's just to flaunt her engagement with Brother Yan, if it weren't for you…" Cheng An paused, turned his head angrily, "Forget it, Brother Yan said it has nothing to do with you, Ranran, you deserve better."

Even though she knew the outcome already, her eyes still became moist, and after a moment, she said hoarsely, "Anzi, this is all my fault, if I hadn't left back then, would he not hate me this much?"

Cheng An's eyes showed pity.

Lu Qingyan had been with Su Ran for three years, and as Lu Qingyan's good buddies, they would definitely interact with Su Ran, later teasing them by calling Su Ran sister-in-law. Every time this happened, Lu Qingyan would stop them, telling them not to talk nonsense, because Su Ran was already shy.

Back then, the way Lu Qingyan looked at Su Ran was completely different from his current indifference.

Su Ran was a very lovely girl, Cheng An felt he was not worthy of her.

"Forget it, just take your time, Brother Yan was just speaking out of anger for the moment. Once I take care of Jiang Nanshu, this sticky problem, I'll make sure you and Brother Yan can be together peacefully."

With that, he turned around to look for Jiang Nanshu.

Who knew that Jiang Nanshu, who had clearly been heading in their direction just a moment ago, suddenly turned around, pretending to be an extra from the crew, and successfully picked up an ice cream under a shade tree...

She stretched out her tongue, licking the ice cream, and when she saw them looking at her, a mix of mockery, scorn, and nonchalance immediately appeared on her face.

It was deliberately provocative, like a fan chart.

"Sister Ran, it's time to start filming, come quickly."

Su Ran, hearing the assistant calling her, said goodbye to Cheng An and went to shoot her scene.

When she came back to her senses, Jiang Nanshu had already disappeared.

He searched around, determined to give her a stern warning to stay away from Su Ran.

But he didn't find her and stood there, annoyed, smoking a cigarette.

On the other side.

Jiang Nanshu had originally intended to provoke Su Ran.

Wherever her villainous character appeared, there had to be drama.

However, she saw a person she wanted to see even more.

Jiang Leyi was sitting under a shade tree with a slender teenager about fifteen or sixteen years old, eating ice cream.

The ice cream was one Jiang Nanshu knew well, she had just swiped it from the crew and was still holding it in her mouth.

The two had a warm atmosphere, Jiang Leyi smiling as she ruffled the teenager's hair, and the dark-skinned boy seemed a bit shy as he smiled back.

Just from appearances, the atmosphere was quite harmonious, it would have been a scene of sibling harmony if she hadn't appeared.

But her appearance broke this peace.

Jiang Nanshu bit down hard, and with a loud "crunch," she snapped off a corner of the ice cream stick, flung her hand towards a nearby trash can, and made it in perfectly.

Jiang Leyi immediately shielded the boy behind her, her eyes wary and her tone filled with disgust, "Jiang Nanshu, what are you doing here?"
