Chapter 153: Chapter 153 Isn’t this what Nannan wanted before? Chapter 153: Chapter 153 Isn’t this what Nannan wanted before? When Jiang Nanshu spoke, Madam Cheng was stunned.
How could she not know that her own son had a lover!
He was single. He simply didn’t have a partner.
When she saw that Madam Cheng’s eyes seemed like they wanted to devour someone alive, Jiang Nanshu covered her mouth, annoyed, “Oh no, why did I blurt that out.”
[Haha, the evil supporting female must create trouble for the female protagonist.]
[I wonder if Cheng An will drag his disabled leg to come to her rescue? I am truly considerate, offering them heroic opportunities at every turn.]
Thinking of this, Jiang Nanshu couldn’t suppress the smirk curling her lips. After all, what’s a heroine without some hardship? Without a secondary male, there would still be a main hero to save the day. The darlings of fortune never lacked such elements.
After the Cheng Family had left, they immediately started to focus their investigation on Su Ran. Su Ran was indeed a celebrity; though not very famous yet, her reputation was pretty good, and she hadn’t had any scandals since her debut.
Upon learning that Su Ran was at Director Wen’s audition set for the female lead, Madam Cheng rushed over without informing anyone.
…
On the sports field, the entire Jiang Family stood under the shade of the trees.
Mrs. Jiang, dressed in a costly Chanel-style suit and carrying a handbag worth a million, had regained her usual grace and luxury.
She stood beside Mr. Jiang, whispering something to him, but her eyes were fixed on Jiang Nanshu.
Jiang Yisen had one hand in his pocket, his gaze sweeping around. When a beautiful college student walked by, a mere arch of his eyebrow turned the student’s face red, and she hurriedly walked away.
Feeling bored, he turned away. Ever since hearing Jiang Nanshu’s true feelings, he had lost all interest in women, even forgetting about Su Ran, who had slightly moved his heart.
It was impressive, really. It managed to make the young master of the Cheng family attack someone for her.
Regardless of whether she was the instigator, on this point alone, she had bested many.
“Little sister,” Jiang Yisen greeted Jiang Nanshu with a bright smile.
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
[This guy definitely has something up his sleeve. It’s strange how this issue resolved itself so smoothly. I didn’t face any trouble at all…the plot holes are just getting bigger…]
She forced a smile, “What is it, big brother?”
“How about visiting my company this weekend? I’ll send a car to pick you up.”
“…”
In her memories, every visit to the Jian Family to find Jiang Yisen ended with her being respectfully “asked” to leave or told he was out on a business trip or simply given some small gifts to send her away without ever letting her in.
Right now…Jiang Nanshu didn’t want to go, whether it was to watch him dig his own grave or to watch the company decline; she didn’t want to be a witness.
Jiang Nanshu politely declined, “I can’t this weekend, I promised to accompany my fourth brother to a concert.”
Jiang Yisen sighed somewhat melancholically, “That’s alright, but no worries. There’s a seven-day National Day holiday coming up next week. You could spend all seven days at my company! Aren’t you excited?”
Jiang Nanshu: “???”
[I really don’t want to go, can’t you see that?]
Something came to mind, and Jiang Nanshu’s eyes gleamed mischievously, “I might still be busy. I’m going to make money.”
“Making money?” Jiang Yisen raised an eyebrow, surprised.
Jiang Nanshu playfully patted her head, “Yes, making lots of money. I could earn my very first salary without relying on the family.”
[Ah, just thinking about it is thrilling, actually cutting a deal with his competitor and making him furious.]
Jiang Yisen: “???”
Damn, his competitor is Bao Yan!
When had Jiang Nanshu gotten involved with Bao Yan?
He suppressed his irritation, his smile tender like he was coaxing a child, “Could Nannan’s first salary gift be for her big brother?”
Jiang Nanshu widened her eyes in disbelief.
[Buddy, how could you shamelessly ask me for a gift! I haven’t even received the endorsement fee from Boss Fang, have some decency!]
But, as always, the original person would pleasingly nod in front of her family. Appreciating this hard-earned warmth of familial affection, she was certainly going to smile and agree.
Jiang Nanshu cried out, “Okay… I’ll give it to you.”
Jiang Yisen: “…”
Seeing her aggrieved eyes, in that moment he felt he hadn’t done the right thing.
But he did extract an important piece of news.
It was that Boss Fang wanted to collaborate with his sister, and the first thing Jiang Yisen thought of was his company’s new perfume line.
It couldn’t be that he wanted to sign Jiang Nanshu as a spokesperson just because of her beauty, could it?
Thinking this, he grew restless.
What was Boss Fang thinking!
Outwardly refusing to collaborate with him, yet secretly scooping up his sister!
How infuriating, he wanted to exploit Jiang Nanshu to make money without even asking if he’d agreed.
Then, from his jacket, he took out a Black Card and handed it to Jiang Nanshu, “Don’t feel obliged to use Nannan’s salary, use big brother’s card instead. Buy any gift you want, feel free to use the card.”
“I have some matters at my company, I’ll be heading off first.”
He was already impatient to barge into Boss Fang’s company and confront him over his double standards!
After saying that, he hurriedly left.
Jiang Nanshu held the card in her hands, truly moved by the money… ah, not that, by her dear family, as she tearfully watched Jiang Yisen leave.
[Holy! It’s an unlimited Black Card! Big brother, if the company goes bankrupt in the future, I’ll keep my mocking voice down, and I’ll take care of you, don’t worry.]
Mr. Jiang: “…”
Mrs. Jiang: “…”
Jiang Yunchuan: “…”
Would Jiang Yisen still have given the card so readily if he knew what Jiang Nanshu was really thinking?
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were shoving each other in the back, neither daring to step forward.
Mr. Jiang lowered his voice, “Should we tell Nannan that her foster mother called and wants to see her…”
Mrs. Jiang also felt conflicted, “It might be okay to visit… but I’m afraid she’ll change her attitude again. Last time she mentioned visiting her foster mother, when she woke up, she said she would never return to the slums again… what if…”
Mr. Jiang knew what she was worried about. With the Jiang family’s crisis unresolved, they couldn’t afford to lose Jiang Nanshu. Although using her to change their own fate was somewhat immoral, they had no choice, so he repeatedly sighed.
Mr. Jiang felt a bit guilty, “We’ve wronged her…”
“It’s not a big deal. We’ll give her money and care, isn’t that what Nannan always wanted?” Mrs. Jiang sighed, “That makes us even.”
Mr. Jiang glared at her angrily, “Do you really accept her from your heart? Listen to what you’re saying!”
Mrs. Jiang’s anger rose at his glare, and she scoffed coldly, “How have I not cared or accepted her? Otherwise, would I stand up to protect her from others? Isn’t the love I give her the same as I give to Yiyi? We don’t need to visit her foster mother’s house. Just give that family some money and have Yiyi visit a couple more times, right?”
