Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Acting Kind Can Make Her Pull Her Hair Out Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Acting Kind Can Make Her Pull Her Hair Out Jiang Nanshu: ?
“Have you gone mad, or have I? You’re taking me? To heaven?”
She feigned excitement on her face, “Really? I’m going to Mingde Middle School, are you willing to accompany me there?”
“Jiang Leyi is there, anybody with eyes can guess what I’m going to do, right? Later, you’d better show a little more protective instinct towards your fake sister.”
Jiang Jingcheng had been staring at her head.
Making Jiang Nanshu feel creeped out.
She touched the cowlick on her head, “What? Does my hair bother you?”
He withdrew his gaze, speaking coldly, “Nothing, just sometimes I really want to open up your brain and see what you’re actually thinking.”
Jiang Nanshu: …
“Listen to yourself, is that something a person would say? All I want is to cause trouble for my fake sister, and you’re thinking of cutting my head open. I can’t stay in this house for another moment.”
He lowered his eyelashes, “Stay away from Le Yi.”
Jiang Nanshu responded with pride, “Impossible, it’s either her or me!”
“Oh well, at least I’m playing the villain. If it were the good guy, it could drive me bald.”
Jiang Jingcheng turned coldly and walked away, “Let’s go, I’ll take you there, just in time to check on her.”
Jiang Nanshu had taken only a step when her sleeve was grabbed. Ji Ze’s frail face moved his lips, “Sister…”
Jiang Nanshu looked down at his fingers, still dirty with mud. He seemed to realize this, awkwardly hiding his hand behind his back, wordless.
Jiang Nanshu sighed internally. Even though she wasn’t exactly a good person, she didn’t want to hurt a child.
She wouldn’t do the things the original owner did to children.
But she might not stay here much longer.
Should she cultivate a sense of kinship?
There was no need.
She withdrew her gaze, speaking coldly, “I’m not your sister. Your sister is Jiang Leyi, got it?”
The teenager’s eyes reddened abruptly.
The trembling he desperately controlled was evident in his clenched lips.
Oh, what a sin.
Jiang Nanshu felt burdened and didn’t want to see Ji Ze’s disappointed eyes, extinguishing his last fantasy, “On the way back, buy some medicine for your wounds, and from now on, just think of your former sister as dead.”
She jogged to catch up with Jiang Jingcheng’s pace.
The stubborn tears finally fell from the young boy’s eyes.
He wiped them away fiercely.
…
Jiang Jingcheng rarely saw Jiang Nanshu so quiet.
The old her would relish stepping on her former family members if given the chance, continuously disparaging them along the way.
He asked coldly, “Aren’t you going to visit your foster parents?”
Jiang Nanshu snorted, “No, I’ll never go back to that pigsty.”
“It’s been so long since I last visited, maybe one day I’ll sneak back and see if my little spotted pig has grown…”
Wait, that’s not right!
She didn’t keep any little spotted pigs.
Jiang Nanshu fell into contemplation.
Mute the whole way, Jiang Nanshu remained in a daze.
So, Jiang Jingcheng didn’t hear her inner thoughts, a flicker of disappointment crossing the depths of his eyes.
He had thought she would chatter away and spill some secrets, but it turned out she was good at keeping things to herself.
Upon reaching the school, Jiang Jingcheng took out his Doctor’s Professional Certificate, and they faced no obstacles.
Jiang Nanshu cocked her head, looking at him, “Second Brother, what are you doing here?”
“Le Yi got hurt, so I came to check on her.”
Jiang Nanshu immediately remembered the original plot of the book.
This was the scene of the rivalry between Su Ran and Jiang Leyi. Who would have thought that a little too much force would cause Jiang Leyi to get hurt? Although Jiang Leyi said she was fine, her second brother, who studied medicine, still came to check on her injuries at Mrs. Jiang’s request.
It so happened that he ran into Jiang Nanshu and Su Ran tussling and ended up pushed to the ground by Cheng An with such force that he scraped his knee.
Lu Qingyan was also present, but his attention was on Cheng An and Su Ran.
The feelings that had heated up because of a chance encounter while drinking instantly withered.
And the original character, because Lu Qingyan’s eyes were only on Su Ran, grew to completely loathe Su Ran.
As for herself, she had a broken leg, and no one cared for her.
Jiang Jingcheng turned a blind eye and walked away, supporting Jiang Leyi.
Lu Qingyan was even quicker to leave the scene carrying a burst of anger after seeing Cheng An protecting Su Ran.
As the wicked supporting female, she sat on the ground, yet people passing by would still kick her a few times.
This was a major scene, how to deal with it? Suddenly, her zeal ignited.
Jiang Nanshu cheered herself on; she could totally handle this.
Jiang Jingcheng turned his head and saw her acting all Xixi, frowning slightly.
The next second, he heard her inner voice: “After harming Su Ran later, should I lie on my side or face down? Which side of my face should I lift to look pitiful? I don’t want to look ugly.”
Jiang Jingcheng: “…”
He helplessly placed his hand on his forehead, really…
He took a deep breath. Just then, he saw someone on the basketball court fall down and scrape their knee. In a calm voice, he said, “When you encounter a fall, using your hands to brace the impact can reduce the risk of fractures. If your body falls to the side, the contact area is smaller, and the injury will be less serious. If you fall on your back, the larger impact area allows for rolling, which prevents the body from getting injured.”
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
Was she showing her eagerness that much?
He glanced sideways, his black hair brushing over his eyelashes, and asked in a quiet voice, “Did you understand?”
Jiang Nanshu’s attention was completely on his face, nodding somewhat confusedly: “Got it.”
“Ah, the beauty kills me, wuu wuu, I swear I will never miss any chance to get close to my second brother!”
Jiang Jingcheng: “…”
The Jiang family produced Jiang Jingcheng, whose appearance could only be matched by the cold as snow Lu Qingyan.
Jiang Nanshu wiped away her drool and was already planning to head to the bar after her emotional injury to ask for a few male models to match her status.
As she walked over to the crew, Jiang Leyi’s little assistant was starry-eyed looking at Jiang Jingcheng. When she saw Jiang Nanshu by his side, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes and muttered a curse about bad luck.
Her face flushed, stars in her eyes, she said: “Jingcheng brother, Leyi sister is over there, I’ll take you to her.”
When she saw Jiang Leyi, Jiang Nanshu started her act: “Heh, still calling her Leyi sister? Anyone who doesn’t know might think Jiang Leyi is old. That’s right, her makeup can’t even cover her fatigue.”
The little assistant’s eyes blazed with fury, but she dared not speak out.
“Which brand’s foundation is this, making such a durable makeup? I need to buy a set, too.”
Jiang Leyi: “…”
Ignoring Jiang Nanshu, she looked to Jiang Jingcheng, slightly embarrassed: “Second brother, I already said I was fine, you didn’t have to come.”
Jiang Jingcheng shook his head: “It’s okay, mom will be relieved to see you’re fine. Are you getting used to living with the crew?”
Jiang Leyi glanced at Jiang Nanshu subconsciously, seeing that she wasn’t paying any attention to her at all, but instead seemed to be looking around aimlessly.
She took a deep breath: “I’m doing well, tell mom not to worry… Once I’m done filming, I’ll bring gifts to visit mom and dad.”
Jiang Nanshu, with her sharp ears, heard this and turned her head to look at her, her voice nasty: “Don’t you even think about stepping foot into the Jiang house.”
“Wuu, dear sister, when you come in, can you bring my gifts too? You enter, and I roll out nonstop.”
Jiang Leyi: “…”
If it weren’t for this inner voice, little sister, you really would be walking further down the path of courting death.
Suddenly, the crowd erupted in cheers and screams.
Jiang Nanshu immediately joined the commotion.
Lu Qingyan had arrived.
Finally, it was her turn to enter the scene!
