Jiang Nanshu was gnawing on a chicken leg.
She really wanted to complain to Director Wen, asking if the boxed meal could occasionally change, maybe to a duck leg, since it was always chicken legs and she was almost sick of them.
Hearing Jiang Leyi’s voice, Jiang Nanshu glanced at her lightly, “If you’ve arrived, then what’s the rush?”
Jiang Leyi saw her still calm demeanor and grew even more agitated, “She’s here to seek justice. Fifth Brother said your phone was off and he couldn’t contact you, and he said mom is extremely angry about the Song Family incident. Since he couldn’t reach you, she had no choice but to come here herself. No one could dissuade her; I fear this time things won’t be as easily brushed off as before.”
Jiang Leyi paced back and forth in her anxiety, “Nannan, how could you file a report under your real name? That’s just informing them that you were the one behind it, now everyone knows.”
Jiang Nanshu put down her boxed meal and licked her lips, “I was afraid they wouldn’t know it was me. Why should I bother otherwise?”
Jiang Leyi: “…”
Even though she couldn’t hear Jiang Nanshu’s thoughts, she understood that she still wanted the whole family to dislike her.
She couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on.
“You stop worrying about me for now. When are you planning to tell them about finding your biological parents in Port City?” Jiang Nanshu asked.
Jiang Leyi pursed her lips slightly, “Let’s wait a bit longer; I don’t want to tell them yet.”
“You…” Jiang Leyi was still worried.
“I won’t be in trouble. Ms. Song is such an elegant and dignified person; she probably won’t cause a scene at our crew.”
Jiang Leyi thought that made sense.
Because Mrs. Jiang was a person who greatly valued face.
And Jiang Nanshu’s decision to file a report under her real name against Song Shizhao was like pulling at her reverse scale.
Mrs. Jiang couldn’t possibly show any good face toward Jiang Nanshu again.
It was very likely that she would regard her as an enemy who destroyed her family.
Jiang Leyi held Jiang Nanshu’s hand, her gaze resolute, “I will protect you, no matter what, I will protect you, Nannan.”
Jiang Nanshu was amused by her seriousness; her eyes proud and self-satisfied, “Don’t worry. Even if Ms. Song brings bodyguards, they won’t be able to defeat me.”
Jiang Leyi: “…”
Thinking of Jiang Nanshu’s combat power, Jiang Leyi felt relieved again.
If Jiang Nanshu could still rescue her safely under those circumstances, how weak could she be?
She hugged Jiang Nanshu, “If they don’t want you anymore, you can come to your sister’s place, my home will always be your home.”
Jiang Nanshu smiled harmlessly at her, “Thank you, sister.”
But they still underestimated Mrs. Jiang’s way of thinking.
Because she brought Chu Muxi along!
And went straight to their crew.
Watching how the scene was temporarily paused due to strangers barging in made him increasingly irritable.
Everything was set up.
They were just about to shoot this part, and then a group of people came to make trouble!
Yes, a group.
Not only the furious Mrs. Jiang and the somewhat gloating Chu Muxi, but Mrs. Jiang also brought at least five bodyguards.
It seemed inevitable that they would forcibly take her back to Beijing.
Jiang Nanshu saw the situation.
She wasn’t a criminal, so who were they trying to scare?
“Jiang Nanshu! Come back with me, otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Mrs. Jiang’s eyes glowed red with anger, looking at Jiang Nanshu as if she were an enemy.
Compared to her frantic exasperation, Jiang Nanshu seemed much more composed, lightly replying with two words: “No.”
“Jiang Nanshu, how can you talk to your mother like that? Who do you think is providing for all that you wear and use? You’re living off the Jiang Family’s blood, using the Jiang Family’s money, and now you not only do things that undermine family foundations but also show no remorse. We came today to clean house. You really don’t deserve to stay with the Jiang Family!” Chu Muxi finally found an opportunity to viciously scold Jiang Nanshu and wouldn’t miss it.
Thinking that Lu Qingyan would rather suffer billions in losses to return to Port City just to accompany Jiang Nanshu made her vomit blood with anger.
She had already explained it all to him.
This person who held her appearance was an outsider; she was the real Jiang Nanshu. Why love just a body and not her soul?
Her hatred for Jiang Nanshu grew stronger.
If it wasn’t for Jiang Nanshu taking over her body, Lu Qingyan’s love would be hers. It would be good if Jiang Nanshu was dead.
Then Lu Qingyan wouldn’t be deceived by that body and would finally see her worth.
In this world, she was the one who loved him the most, nobody could compare!
Jiang Nanshu watched Chu Muxi coldly, letting out a scoff, “On what grounds do you berate me? You, an outsider, get to enjoy the benefits from the Jiang Family. I am their blood relative, why can’t I?”
“Xixi is not an outsider!” Mrs. Jiang couldn’t endure it any longer and roared out, her gaze filled with hatred toward Jiang Nanshu, “She is my biological daughter; we don’t have such a vicious relative like you! You should be the outcast. I truly regret forgiving you over and over again, only for my concessions to lead to increased hostility from you. You have ruined two families, are you satisfied now? What exactly does the Jiang Family owe you, to have ended up with a debtor like you? How did you not drown in a ditch when you were taken away! Why don’t you just die!”
Everyone present.
Apart from Chu Muxi, who was happy to be acknowledged, everyone else was in shock.
Director Wen knew these were wealthy family secrets, so he quietly waved his hand to have all the crew members leave.
The less they knew, the better for them.
Jiang Leyi gritted her teeth, wanting to step forward to help Jiang Nanshu.
Director Wen held her arm and shook his head at her.
Jiang Leyi could only stand still, recalling the vibrant, beautiful humor of Jiang Nanshu.
Now, seeing her again, so thin and frail standing in front of two people, she remained silent.
After a long while.
Jiang Nanshu sneered lightly, “Is this your heartfelt speech, Ms. Song? After holding it in for so long, you finally let it out. My mom once took me to a fortune teller, who told my fortune and said, sorry to disappoint you, but I have a tough life. I will not die, oh wrong, I definitely won’t die before you do.”
After finishing, she even smiled at Mrs. Jiang.
Not a trace of hurt appeared on her because of Mrs. Jiang’s harsh words.
“Hmph, the Song Family has done nothing to deserve this. Why did you harm them, harm my family?” Mrs. Jiang looked at her coldly.
Jiang Nanshu’s smile faded, her face turning indifferent: “Should we cover up crimes then? Should his actions just be forgiven? By destroying one, I have saved countless families suffering because of him. Even if I had the chance to do it a hundred times, I would do the same, nobody should pay for his mistakes. It’s too late for regrets now.”
Chu Muxi saw the two arguing.
Her eyes flickered, then settled on the wire rigging behind Jiang Nanshu. They had entered right when it was being installed, and it was currently half-finished.
When nobody was looking, she quietly moved behind the structure, using pliers to loosen a few screws, causing the rigging to teeter dangerously.
A sinister look crossed her eyes, and with a strong push, the iron rigging fell towards Jiang Nanshu, who had her back turned.
“Die, bitch!”
