The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 148: Do you also want to drink soft and chewy bubble tea?
Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Do you also want to drink soft and chewy bubble tea?
Su Ran took a deep breath and finally replied, "Stop mentioning Lu Qingyan and I, it’s not good for Jiang Nanshu. She is right both morally and logically, but I am not."
Huang Ruanting replied, "Sigh, alright. Lu Qingyan is really blind, rejecting a pearl and tangling himself with mere trifle. Today, you weren’t at school, and something big happened. Cheng An was looking for you everywhere, he thought it was Jiang Nanshu who made you disappear. Without another word, Jiang Nanshu sent Cheng An to the hospital. I don’t even know if he’s woken up yet!"
She intentionally twisted the truth, omitting the part where Cheng An was the first to initiate the fight, but nobody cared because it was Jiang Nanshu who acted.
Su Ran was shocked. How could Jiang Nanshu dare do this?
She quickly scrolled through the photos Huang Ruanting sent her, in which Cheng An was bloody and his face contorted in pain.
So, the reason Jiang Nanshu was so fearless was that the Jiang Family was backing her.
That’s why she dared to act so recklessly, targeting her and even harming her kind friends.
This time, Su Ran felt a change in her heart. If she had been more assertive, maybe things wouldn’t have ended up like this. She suppressed the rising gloom in her eyes and finally typed, "I know. I will handle it."
Su Ran pondered for a long time and finally took out the business card Bao Yan gave her and dialed the number.
...
Near Mingde Middle School.
Fang Minghe drove to the area because Jiang Nanshu wanted to come here, saying there was a shop here that was good for business talks.
He haphazardly parked his Bentley, and after getting out of the car, Jiang Nanshu headed straight for the bubble tea shop—soft, sticky, bouncy bubble tea, here she comes!
Standing at the service counter, Jiang Nanshu ordered a cup of taro bubble milk tea and told the server, "I want to add pearls, coconut jelly, extra taro, and make it a large one, thank you."
Fang Minghe followed her into the shop, observing that there were mostly high school students coming and going, and the whole shop was so small that it was fully visible at a glance. Jiang Nanshu went ahead and ordered first.
He glanced at the row of orange plastic chairs and somewhat lost for words, commented, "Is this the ’good place’ you were talking about?"
This place didn’t even have private booths!
The crowd outside could see everything inside clearly.
Jiang Nanshu prodded her head, earnestly replying, "Of course, the more dangerous the place, the safer it is. My big brother won’t find us here!"
Seeing his speechless look.
Jiang Nanshu asked, "Do you want to try the soft, sticky, bouncy bubble tea too?"
Fang Minghe expressionlessly conveyed with his gaze that he didn’t really want to.
He only drinks coffee.
Yet there he was, holding a cup of bubble tea.
Jiang Nanshu even handed him a straw.
Sitting down, she gleefully sipped through the straw and asked contentedly, "Alright, tell me, what do you need me to do? Oh, sorry, I mean, what should I do?"
Fang Minghe sighed almost imperceptibly and resignedly sat next to Jiang Nanshu.
Seeing he wasn’t touching the bubble tea, she kindly offered, "Can’t figure out how to use the straw? Let me help you."
"No need... I know how."
After hesitating for a moment, Fang Minghe took a sip through the straw and then... a new world opened up.
This stuff was actually pretty good.
Jiang Nanshu looked pleased, thinking how could anyone not love bubble tea!
"This time I am approaching you about a Coral Sea endorsement. I want you to sign a contract to shoot this perfume advertisement."
Jiang Nanshu almost choked on her bubble tea.
She almost thought she was hallucinating.
"Shoot what?"
"The Coral Sea advertisement. This series is very important to me. I think you... would be perfect. Don’t reject me due to the Jian Family. We can discuss the price," Fang Minghe said, then calmly took another sip of his bubble tea, waiting for Jiang Nanshu to digest the information.
Jiang Nanshu was stunned, in fact, she desperately sought out Da Shachun.
"You explain to me why resources that should belong to the heroine are coming my way. Could he have mistaken the person?"
Da Shachun, still upset about Jiang Nanshu silencing it last time, responded in a bizarre tone with its electronic mechanical voice, "But they clearly mentioned Miss Jiang~ Nanshu~!"
Jiang Nanshu was silent.
"You better speak up nicely, or I’ll mute you for thirty days, make your TV mute when you’re slacking off, and confiscate all your melodramatic CEO romance novels."
Da Shachun exclaimed, "Ahhhh, so vicious! So vicious!"
Jiang Nanshu felt her brain was too noisy.
Fortunately, she couldn’t hear this thing’s voice unless she summoned it. It had degenerated from a cool, aloof Tongzi into this.
Da Shachun’s voice sounded whiny, "I don’t know either, maybe some initial bug caused a virus to invade this world and twisted the plot? But Host, you don’t stick to the script anyway, what are you worried about!"
She only had to boost her Disgust Value, doing bad things when there were bad things to be done, and creating trouble when there weren’t. Who cared about following the plot?
Jiang Nanshu stayed silent.
That being said, the scenario was off, so were the characters—look at how degraded everyone had become. Not one of the expected disasters had occurred.
She spoke coldly, "Whether or not I follow the script, I can’t let it degenerate like this. How will I go back otherwise? Now that I can’t even track the Disgust Value, I have no idea how much is left. Why is it so infuriating? Also, I’ve replaced the female lead’s resources; are you sure this bug won’t grow bigger?"
Da Shachun said nothing.
PUA failed, switch the CPU.
"Host, you shouldn’t think like that. The storyline in this world develops to pave your way. Our goal is to make the female lead detest you, and if she hates you, all the male leads around her will hate you too. Won’t the Disgust Value skyrocket? And this is a business rivalry; by helping Fang Group make money, you’re making the Jian Family lose money, right? Your elder brother will detest you, you ungrateful wretch!"
Silence.
Despite Da Shachun’s earnest persuasion, Jiang Nanshu felt strangely convinced by it.
The more she thought about it, the more it made sense.
This kind of betrayal would not only anger Jiang Yisen but probably the entire Jiang Family.
When the endorsement video comes out and explodes, making money for Fang Group.
Jiang Nanshu smiled contentedly, "Yes, that’s perfect. I can already see the road back home waving at me."
She snorted in her mind and continued talking to Da Shachun, "I need you to immediately check what’s going on with this storyline. It feels like it’s gone off track all the way to the Pacific. If you find nothing, I’ll request to change systems."
Da Shachun exclaimed, "!!!"
How could she think that!
Its performance wasn’t that good, but that was no way to treat it.
Da Shachun hurriedly vanished, "Okay, Host. I’m on it. I’ll get to the bottom of this and give you a satisfactory explanation."
Jiang Nanshu brought her attention back to Fang Minghe, who was halfway through his bubble tea, and said, "I’ll sign the contract."
Fang Minghe chewed on the tapioca pearls, raising an eyebrow, "Won’t we discuss the endorsement fee?"
Jiang Nanshu said earnestly, "I trust Boss Fang won’t shortchange me."
Fang Minghe then took a folder out of his briefcase and handed it to her, "The endorsement fee is one million five hundred thousand."
"Great, great, great," Jiang Nanshu earnestly took it, "Whatever you say." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Jiang Nanshu glanced through the contract, saw no pitfalls, and boldly signed her name.
Hehe, time to make money for the competitor of the Jian Family.
The atmosphere between the two was exceedingly harmonious, but outside the bubble tea shop, Ji Ze spotted Jiang Nanshu’s figure and zoned out.
Since the last confrontation, he never sought her out again, not wanting to face her cold words.
A bit dejected, he withdrew his gaze, "Forget it, she won’t come home. It’s like my sister died."
He was about to leave when someone rushed over, draped an arm over his shoulders, and with a light and provocative gaze toward Jiang Nanshu and the distinguished-looking man beside her, whistled.
"Ji Ze, isn’t that your sister who rose from the ashes to become a phoenix? What’s she doing with a tycoon?" After saying that, the boy paused, then burst out laughing, "Don’t tell me the Jiang Family stopped giving her money, so she’s out here hooking up with a rich man to sell herself?"
The words were vicious and indecent.
And this person was his former middle school classmate who had seen Jiang Nanshu and knew the family affairs.
Annoyed, Ji Ze punched him, "It’s your whole family who sells, not my sister. Shut your filthy mouth!"
The boy, nursing a dark expression after the punch, retorted, "Are you giving me face? She’s always been the vile sort."
The scuffle between the two grew too noisy, causing clamor outside, attracting Jiang Nanshu’s attention.
