The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind Chapter 234: 234: Reverse Psychology with Pie?

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Reverse Psychology with Pie?

Liang Ci Qiu had been staying here since he was bailed out two days ago, looking very tired. After all, anyone who’d narrowly escaped prison would only feel the lingering fear of a disaster survived.

It was just that Father Lu had only redeed his son when trouble befell himself, which could be described as being at the peak of misfortune.

The second floor had a balcony for people to enjoy the view.

Jiang Nanshu followed Liang Ci Qiu to the balcony, from where they could see the golf course built inside Half Mountain Villa—several servants were maintaining the lawn, and the unobstructed view was indeed pleasant.

She comfortably leaned against the railing, enjoying the autumn breeze, and as she turned her head, she saw Liang Ci Qiu looking at her with a dark, brooding stare.

Jiang Nanshu’s lips curved into a gentle smile, “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at like that?”

Liang Ci Qiu withdrew his gaze. His chin beard had grown out unkempt, making him look sowhat scruffy, and his face, usually resembling Lu Qingyan’s, now seed different.

Jiang Nanshu felt she was truly shallow.

She was a top-tier visual creature, informally known as a ‘face connoisseur.’

Because of Liang Ci Qiu’s disheveled appearance, she lost interest after a few glances.

He had sensitively caught this slight change, and his heart felt more injured, a tight coil of inferiority and resentnt winding around him.

His hand beside him clenched into a fist, his voice hoarse, “Are you here to laugh at my misery?”

Hearing this, Jiang Nanshu looked at him in surprise, “You’re smart, you figured it out.”

Jiang Nanshu grinned, not bothering to be polite, “You’re quite amusing. How does it feel to have killed soone for Su Ran?”

Liang Ci Qiu’s gaze turned even darker. For a mont, Jiang Nanshu thought he must want to pounce and bite her. He was a trapped beast, cornered in a dark cage.

Eventually, he let out a sigh, looking down at his hands, which trembled faintly.

In matters dealing with Su Ran, he was always anxious and impulsive. Even if he was the worst, he didn’t want his hands stained with a life.

It wasn’t intentional.

“Tsk,” Jiang Nanshu’s voice was faint, dripping with sarcasm, “Regretting now? It’s a good thing we’re enemies; otherwise, I might actually feel sorry for you. My sympathy is always overflowing.”

After a while, Liang Ci Qiu chuckled bitterly, “Jiang Nanshu, you actually have sympathy? When you see soone in trouble, you can’t wait to kick them while they’re down. You are truly rotten to the core.”

“You saying that really breaks my heart.”

She spoke of heartbreak, but her face showed sheer delight.

As Liang Ci Qiu said, seeing others in misfortune only made her laugh—where was there sympathy?

“Oh my, what have I discovered here? Su Ran has released a statent, claiming the killer was her ‘friend,’ and she had no idea. You’re carrying the can, Liang Ci Qiu. You’ve been Su Ran’s loyal dog for so long, and you’ve only made it to the status of a ‘friend’? You’re so pitiful.”

Liang Ci Qiu’s eyes turned red with rage, glaring at her, “Shut up!”

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes were smiling, her red lips parting lightly, “No, I don’t want to. Standing on Su Ran’s side, do you regret it?”

Liang Ci Qiu was stunned, his lips parting slightly.

“Of course, regret is useless now, and I don’t want you either,” Jiang Nanshu heartlessly added.

Aiming straight for the heart with a killing blow.

She almost brought Liang Ci Qiu to tears.

He was the killer.

He could understand Su Ran.

Su Ran was a female celebrity; she still had a bright future ahead of her, so it made sense to shift the responsibility onto him. She ca out clean.

That was just fine, that was fine…

But still, his heart ached.

Because since his incident happened, Su Ran hadn’t sent him a single ssage, as if she had unilaterally severed ties with him.

“Nannan, it’s ti for us to go.”

Through the balcony’s glass door.

Lu Qingyan was standing on the other side of the door, his gaze indifferently watching the two of them.

Jiang Nanshu stood up straight, smiling as she bid farewell to Liang Ci Qiu, “I’m leaving. Take your ti regretting.”

Liang Ci Qiu shook his head, murmuring to himself, “No regrets.”

Su Ran had already given her first ti to him; he was her first man.

It is only natural for a man to protect his woman.

He shouted angrily at Jiang Nanshu’s retreating back, “I don’t regret it!”

Jiang Nanshu opened the glass door, closed it again, all in one smooth motion.

Lu Qingyan glanced sideways at him, then averted his gaze, “What were you talking to him about?”

“Nothing much.” Jiang Nanshu blinked with a smile.

“Just went to taunt that ‘Dian Gong’,” who else could it be? He pushed away last ti for Su Ran. I’m very petty. How could I miss this chance to make him feel bad? Whoever sses with is dead!

Lu Qingyan: “…”

“Don’t have any contact with him.”

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes shifted and suddenly pushed the person against the wall where no one was around.

Her hands encircled his neck and pulled down, their noses only three centiters apart.

“Are you jealous?”

Lu Qingyan pursed his lips into a smile, “No.”

Jiang Nanshu tiptoed to bite lightly on his lip, “Hard-mouthed.”

Lu Qingyan was about to respond when Jiang Nanshu backed away far from him, “Really not?”

He took the initiative, cradling her head, lips pressing down deeply, his voice muffled, “Yes.”

Jiang Nanshu’s lips were soft and sweet.

Like strawberries, aromatic.

He really wanted further developnt with her, not just to be limited to this.

“Cough.” Suddenly, the elevator door behind them opened.

Old Sir Lu stared sternly at the two of them.

Lu Qingyan imdiately let go of Jiang Nanshu, his ears tinged red, but his face remained cool and composed as he respectfully greeted, “Grandpa.”

Jiang Nanshu turned her head, and at that mont felt like she was in the biggest public wreck of her life.

Kissing in front of an elder. Even with Jiang Nanshu’s strong ntality, her cheeks blazed with embarrassnt.

Her voice softened a bit, “Grandpa Lu.”

Old Sir Lu seed like he wanted to say sothing but stopped, and then seed like he wanted to stop himself but wanted to say sothing.

In the end, he pretended not to see and closed the elevator door, “It’s good for young people to be busy… I didn’t see anything. You two continue.”

Lu Qingyan’s face was tense, Jiang Nanshu looked at the coldness between his brows, “Are you angry?”

No, he was just embarrassed.

So he looked down at her, the ice lted away, revealing a smile, “Do you still want to continue?”

“How could I dare? I give up. Next ti I flirt with you, I’ve got to be mindful of the occasion.”

Jiang Nanshu’s cheeks were flushed, “Let’s, let’s go back.”

The two didn’t take the elevator but instead took the stairs down.

Jiang Nanshu looped her arm through his, always wanting to confirm, “Brother Qingyan, compared to yesterday, do you like a little more today?”

She made a small gap with her fingers, her face smiling, lively and cute.

Lu Qingyan couldn’t help but be affected by her enthusiasm, his smile becoming much more genuine, “A little more.”

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes brightened, “Yay, I’ll work hard to make you fall for , and of course, I’ll love you even more than you love . You are number one in my heart.”

“Ah, my sweet talker is really sothing. Whispering sweet nothings is a cinch for .”

Lu Qingyan’s dark eyes beautifully curved, lifting his hand to ruffle her hair, his voice gentle, “Then you have to work hard. I’m already falling for you.”

Jiang Nanshu: “…”

“Reverse psychology? Alright, even if this pastry is fake, I’ll take a taste of its saltiness!”
