The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 158: We’re Worlds Apart, Are You Still Going to Be Mad at Me?
Chapter 158: Chapter 158: We’re Worlds Apart, Are You Still Going to Be Mad at Me?
After sending the message, Jiang Nanshu felt like her words sounded insulting.
So she added another one: "Ah, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you’re worthless. I just think that my sister lacks taste. She’s been with you for three years and still treats you like a high school classmate, as if you have no charm."
Jiang Nanshu: "..."
Why did it seem like she was calling him ugly now?
Should she send yet another message?
Just as the thought came to her mind.
Lu Qingyan replied from the other end: "Jiang Nanshu, we are worlds apart, and you still want to upset me?"
"..."
She touched her nose.
After thinking for a bit, she continued to reply: "How could I? I wouldn’t dare be mad at you. All the other women out there are bad, only I am your clingy plaster, sticking wherever you go. [Kiss emoji JPG]"
About a minute passed.
Lu Qingyan finally replied with a string of ellipsis, probably speechless because of her.
Jiang Nanshu grinned, not even sparing him when abroad.
Xu Xi, seeing her so happy, curiously asked, "Jiangjiang, who are you chatting with that’s making you so happy?"
"Ah?" Jiang Nanshu turned off her screen, serious, "I wasn’t chatting, I was annoying someone."
Xu Xi: "..."
Xu Xingwan: "..."
Her smile almost stretched to the back of her ears, like she’d found money, grinning ear to ear.
She quickly put these things out of her mind, just thinking that despite everything, Su Ran still managed to secure a leading lady role, attributing it not only to favoritism but also to her own efforts.
After all, according to the original book, her character was admired not only because she charmed thousands, but also for her resilience and strong-willed nature which won the hearts and affection of many men.
She felt sorry for Golden Sister in her heart; a supporting character is still a supporting character, no match for the lead.
So the entire day, Jiang Leyi was silent.
The Family knew about her situation too and didn’t dare to speak up, but she definitely must have known.
Until the next day, Jiang Leyi hadn’t sent her any messages.
Maybe she was truly heartbroken.
If she told her about the plot’s original direction, she would surely feel even worse, so sometimes not knowing the truth is for the better.
Jiang Nanshu decided not to mock her anymore, afraid she might truly do something drastic. In the original book, after losing the role, she seemed to have lost more than ten pounds and then went on to act in a poorly produced web series.
Feeling insecure, she ended up dating Xie Zimiao under the guise of his sweet talk.
She had helped her once before, driving Xie Zimiao away.
This story arc would resolve in another way.
It seemed that no matter how much the plot crumbled between them, this direction would always wrap up.
Suddenly, Jiang Nanshu felt like there was no need to ask Da Shachun to look for bugs anymore.
Since it would all come together anyway...
As she walked on the sports field, she saw Su Ran had come to school.
She was accompanied by an assistant, dressed bright and glamorous, unlike her modest and humble appearance when she first entered the school.
Her swelling had subsided, and she wore makeup, enhancing her already beautiful eyes and brows, adding an extra touch of allure. Her expression remained calm, but Jiang Nanshu felt like she had changed.
An indescribable feeling.
Under the protection of her bodyguards, Su Ran entered the school. Perhaps she was afraid of being attacked due to yesterday’s scandal. However, what greeted her were sympathies and congratulations.
Congratulations on signing a new drama series—she would join the team after the National Day celebrations.
From a distance, Su Ran saw Jiang Nanshu and offered her a smile. Then she coldly shifted her gaze away and left the playground surrounded by a crowd.
Jiang Nanshu frowned slightly, feeling that Su Ran was acting strangely. That smile just now seemed provocative, almost as if she was declaring war.
Jiang Nanshu didn’t care much; she wasn’t involved in the entertainment industry, and after all, this was Su Ran’s drama.
So she went to her classroom for the lesson.
During the break, she went to the restroom because she had an injury on her hand, so she washed very carefully, not wanting to get the Band-Aid dirty.
A figure stopped next to her, washing hands at another sink. Jiang Nanshu turned her head to look over as she smelled the pungent perfume.
Su Ran’s hair was tied up in a bun, revealing her delicate and beautiful profile.
Her eyes were downcast, her expression cold, focusing entirely on the faucet as she washed her hands vigorously.
Her fair skin turned red from the scrubbing before she finally turned off the faucet.
Looking at the mirror in front of her, which also reflected Jiang Nanshu’s face, her hair slightly curled like seaweed with a red velvet hair clip, making her look glamorous and noble, like a little princess.
But only she knew how filthy the heart hidden beneath that beautiful facade was.
Calculating against her step by step.
Making her lose so much.
Her eyes were like the deep sea, only revealing faint glimpses of darkness.
Jiang Nanshu smiled slightly and turned to look at her, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Su Ran’s face was unsmiling, her eyes revealing an undeniable disdain for Jiang Nanshu, "I was just thinking about when you would die."
"Tsk." Jiang Nanshu really thought this female lead had gone mad.
She laughed nonchalantly, "This life of mine can’t be taken by anyone unless I no longer want it myself."
Including this darling of fortune.
Su Ran’s eyes drooped, "Jiang Nanshu, you succeeded. You’ve driven me to this point step by step, all for a man, pushing me to madness. You really succeeded."
Jiang Nanshu: "?"
She had a momentary freeze. The worst thing she had ever done was push Su Ran into the pool, then Lu Qingyan didn’t save her, and that made her mad?!
For a moment, she didn’t know whether she could consider herself a successful villainess. She still had many things undone!
Seeing Jiang Nanshu speechless, Su Ran couldn’t contain herself and chuckled, "It proves that fate favors me. I get everything I want effortlessly, whether it’s fame or men."
Jiang Nanshu seriously washed her fingertips, "And then? What are you trying to say?"
"I got what I wanted with a snap of my fingers, whether it’s resources or power and wealth. Oh right, you haven’t seen Jiang Leyi, have you?" Su Ran couldn’t hold back her laughter, "She begged like a dog in front of Director Wen yesterday, saying she was willing to play a maid in this big production, utterly disgraceful, yet that’s what the Jiang family reared for over a decade."
Jiang Nanshu’s hand paused, and without noticing, water soaked her Band-Aid.
She sighed inwardly; it had gotten dirty after all.
"So, you didn’t even audition this time and still got the role?"
Su Ran turned and walked out, "I told you, I got it with a snap of my fingers; you have your powerful protection, and so do I."
She clenched her hands tightly, leaving behind a mocking remark, "And thanks to you, you’ve made me who I am today, Jiang Nanshu. In the future, there’s nothing I won’t seize."
"By the way." She turned back to Jiang Nanshu with a clean smile, "Jiang Leyi ran off the set yesterday and then disappeared. You don’t think she might have killed herself, do you?"
"But her death would fit your desires. You’re dark and narrow-minded, competing against her for years. Actually, Jiang Leyi was just a poor thing, scared to use her family’s power, struggling on her own outside, and with you, her most hated enemy, Jiang Nanshu, you’ve killed someone again."
