The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 163: What else can we do? We can only fight back.
Chapter 163: Chapter 163: What else can we do? We can only fight back.
Hearing these thoughts, Jiang Yunchuan’s first reaction was not to change his fate, but rather delighted that his maternal family was also miserable, how wonderful that was!
He had never liked his maternal family since he was a child, nor his pompous cousins who acted all high and mighty.
Their family was just a scholarly family, with pedantic academics who were especially hypocritical.
When Jiang Zhouye went into the entertainment industry to sing, his maternal family accused him of tarnishing the family name.
Yet when their own grandson became a top Movie Emperor, that was a glory for the family, a blessing for the Song Family.
Since the scandal of the Jiang Family’s true and false heiresses broke out in the upper-class circles, his maternal grandfather had hinted during family feasts for Mrs. Jiang to send Jiang Leyi away. Why should they spend money on an outsider with no blood relation?
As for the real heiress, Jiang Nanshu, who was raised in the countryside, surely she lacked education and culture. They wanted Mrs. Jiang to take her back, teach her properly, and only then bring her over, so she wouldn’t embarrass them with her vulgar behavior.
It was just that Jiang Nanshu became the butt of many jokes because she was chasing after Lu Qingyan, which made the Song Family feel humiliated. They even told Mrs. Jiang not to bring Jiang Nanshu with her during the holidays; they feared it would tarnish their reputation in the Beijing Circle.
Mrs. Jiang was put in a difficult position, and since she didn’t like her newly-found daughter anyway, she complied.
Jiang Leyi was also rarely brought out to social gatherings; they didn’t want their daughter, who they had carefully raised for over a decade, to be subjected to ridicule and disdain.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yunchuan started to feel uncomfortable again.
He looked at Jiang Nanshu and consoled himself, telling himself that it’s not the current Jiang Nanshu who was unwanted, but the Jiang Nanshu from before.
How unlikeable she was before, and how hard it was for people to warm up to her.
Only by thinking this way did he feel slightly better.
Seeing him silent, Jiang Nanshu was also a bit puzzled.
[What’s going on? I mentioned his most disliked cousin, and he didn’t even get angry! I was even going to talk about his dramas. I don’t even listen to Brother Yan’s songs; the differentiation is clear to anyone with eyes, right?]
Jiang Yunchuan glanced at her: "What’s so good about his crappy drama? He’s not even as handsome as Lao Wu. If Lao Wu didn’t aspire to be a doctor, what business would Song Shizhao have in the entertainment industry?"
When talking about Jiang Jingcheng, Jiang Nanshu wholeheartedly agreed.
[That’s right, the otherworldly beauty of Lao Wu is not something the Movie Emperor can compete with. But when the virus on his body flares up and his skin ulcerates, then maybe not, hehe, I can take the opportunity to get closer to Lao Wu~]
But on the surface, she was furious: "Oh, how dare you! You actually dare to speak ill of Cousin Song. Wait till I snitch on you; you’re done for, Jiang Lao Wu."
Jiang Yunchuan was amused and flicked her forehead: "No respect for elders, go ahead and snitch. I would say the same thing to his face."
Jiang Nanshu, holding her forehead, glared at him: "You’re not only less handsome than Lao Wu, but also not as handsome as Cousin Song. What right do you have to talk bad about him?"
Jiang Yunchuan: "..."
So we’re stuck on looks now?
He had already learned skincare; what more did they want?
He wasn’t bad-looking, just a bit rough from the wind and sun, not as fair as them.
His look was the healthy, sun-kissed man.
So he couldn’t help but roll his eyes: "Ah, right, right, right, your Cousin Song is the best. The Song Family doesn’t even let you through the door, and yet you still think so highly of them. All those brothers and sisters in that family stick together. When they bully you, I want to see what you’ll do!"
Jiang Nanshu blinked her innocent eyes.
"What else can I do, I can only bully her back, tit for tat, right? I understand the ways of the world."
Jiang Yunchuan: "..."
His original intention was to keep Jiang Nanshu away from that family, not to encourage her to go and fight!
But thinking of Jiang Nanshu’s disingenuous and vindictive nature...
Forget it, instead of worrying about her, I might as well worry about my own fate.
After a moment of thought, he asked, "Little sister, I already gave Lin Yueyue three hundred thousand for the breakup. She won’t bother me anymore, will she?"
This HIV plot, can it just end like this? I really can’t stand it anymore, even talking to Lin Yueyue, I wish I could wear a mask.
Jiang Nanshu sighed, her voice haunting, "After you hurt her that much, she won’t forgive you. You’ve shattered a young girl’s purest sincerity. Prepare to live in loneliness."
Jiang Yunchuan then breathed a sigh of relief; living in loneliness was better than being hounded by Lin Yueyue.
He wanted to live until eighty!
"You really are a saint, a loose purse, so generous. How could she not bother you with how you’ve decided to save her affluent life? You think three hundred thousand can fill the void? According to her market value, your three hundred thousand is only good for a peck on the lips."
"..."
He hadn’t had the heart to tell Lin Yueyue she was sick; he’d wait for her to discover it herself. That three hundred thousand could be considered his contribution to her treatment costs; if she were still greedy after that, she couldn’t blame him for going public.
The two stood on the athletic field for a while.
"Nanshu, Yun Chuan, what are you two doing standing here?"
Yang Jiashu’s cheerful voice came from behind.
Jiang Yunchuan casually replied, "Isn’t there no class today? Just wandering around."
Yang Jiashu also saw the giant poster, and a moment of speechlessness flashed across his clean, handsome face, "Has the Principal’s brain been waterlogged? This isn’t a media school; turning a higher institution into a stage for actors has got students starting to chase stars instead of studying for their postgraduate exams. They spend all day following Su Ran’s schedule. Before, when Su Ran’s mother was sick and there was no cure, she said she wanted to enter a biology research institute to study these kinds of drugs, really..."
Yang Jiashu didn’t finish his sentence, leaving Su Ran some dignity.
The promises of youth don’t stand up to scrutiny.
Just like how she’s not properly preparing for her postgraduate studies now, but turning around to act again.
He saw through it; the reason Su Ran wanted to come here was for Lu Qingyan.
What she didn’t want before, now she’s begging for, why bother?
She even insists on interfering when he hasn’t called off the engagement. Although she had a past with Lu Qingyan, her appearance shows a lack of concern for the feelings of those around him. He somewhat understood why Jiang Nanshu was acting so crazy, faced with the constant threat of abandonment; wanting to hold onto something stable didn’t seem wrong, just her approach was flawed.
"Don’t even say, if she becomes a top-tier actress across three arenas in the future, she’d be Jing University’s signboard for recruitment. The Jing University Principal would be foolish not to take advantage now."
Jiang Yunchuan: "..."
He couldn’t resist glancing at Su Ran’s poster.
She was in an ancient costume, her face as beautiful as a lotus flower in clear water.
Su Ran’s achievements in the future will be that high? You’ve got to be kidding!
Seeing the two not speaking, Yang Jiashu thought he’d brought up something that made Jiang Nanshu uncomfortable, so he quickly changed the subject, "Don’t be sad, Nanshu. Brother Yan will be back tonight; he should make it to your performance."
