The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind Chapter 40 - 40 40 Anyway in your eyes Im just a bad girl

Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Anyway, in your eyes, I’m just a bad girl who would do anything Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Anyway, in your eyes, I’m just a bad girl who would do anything Mrs. Jiang looked at Jiang Nanshu incredulously, wondering why her daughter’s loyalty seed to be directed outward.

She was her own flesh and blood mother! Just as she was about to burst with anger, she heard Jiang Nanshu sigh,

“Although Chu Xin’s actions are sowhat despicable, all her considerations are for the sake of her own daughter. I can only say that her intentions are good, though her thods are unacceptable.”

Mrs. Jiang’s lips moved slightly and then, disgruntled, she closed her mouth again.

In her mory, there seed to be no warm monts with Jiang Nanshu; had it not been for the occasional glimpse into her true feelings, she might never have paid her any attention.

Her demands on Jiang Nanshu were minimal: just don’t bring sha upon them again.

She herself, with a gentle disposition and elegant manners, took face very seriously.

Among other ladies of high society, she always had to be the best, and was very strict with her children from a young age.

Jiang Nanshu was an anomaly, soone without decorum who had barged into their world.

At first, Mrs. Jiang had found it difficult to accept her and had secretly done another paternity test, confirming she was indeed Jiang Nanshu’s biological mother.

Although Chu Xin was reluctant to deal with any dead weight, seeing Mrs. Jiang remaining silent for so long made her grow impatient with her but, in turn, she smiled warmly at Jiang Nanshu, “Alright, when the ti cos you all co over. I’ll host, and we’ll have a great ti.”

She turned her head to Jiang Leyi and said, “Yiyi, my Xixi is coming back from abroad next week. If you’re free, could you pick her up? She’s been talking about you for quite so ti.”

Jiang Leyi instinctively was very resistant, especially because of the incident with the bag that almost had her taking the fall. Although she couldn’t be sure that the bag in Jiang Nanshu’s friend’s possession was the sa, it still left a bitter taste.

But her bond with Chu Muxi over more than a decade made it hard to refuse. She gave a noncommittal answer, “Let check if I’m free that day. If I am, I’ll go pick her up.”

Chu Xin’s brows furrowed slightly. What was with the Jiang Family today?

Why so gloomy?

They used to greet her with smiles. Today was the first ti they all had such stony expressions.

Jiang Zhouye and Jiang Yunchuan were no exception.

The two were looking down, talking softly about sothing, their gazes not once wandering toward her.

Suppressing her displeasure, Chu Xin turned to take Mrs. Jiang’s arm. “Shuling, do you want to go for a beauty SPA later? I’ve got a mbership card at INC.”

Mrs. Jiang deftly avoided the gesture, replying indifferently, “I won’t be going, my head’s been hurting a bit. I’d like to go upstairs to rest, Yiyi, rember to show your Aunt Chu out later.”

Seeing Mrs. Jiang actually leave, Chu Xin quickly added, “Shuling, I’ll call you about going to Fenglin Villa.”

Mrs. Jiang didn’t respond.

Chu Xin instantly felt her face grow hot; why had the amicable attitude cooled so suddenly?

She couldn’t figure it out and a tinge of anger rose within her. Not staying any longer, she left.

But in her mind, she found an excuse for Mrs. Jiang: it must have been the headache that caused her to act like that.

With this thought, Chu Xin’s mood instantly improved, joyously making plans for her spa day back at ho.

“What’s strange is why Mom didn’t ask Chu Xin to stay longer? Aren’t they best friends?”

Jiang Yunchuan and Jiang Zhouye: “… ” What do you think! Why would that be!

“Not a shred of hospitality, unlike . The day after tomorrow, I’m definitely inviting Chen Qian into my Fifth Brother’s bed to treat her well!”

“Cough cough cough.” Jiang Zhouye choked on his saliva violently, his fair face flushing red, the sharp pain in his throat mixing with the taste of blood.

Jiang Yunchuan jumped, hurriedly patting his back to help him catch his breath, his voice filled with concern, “Fifth Brother, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”

Jiang Zhouye looked at Jiang Nanshu with a cold gaze, grinding his teeth, “It’s nothing, I won’t die.”

“Huh? Why is this kid glaring at ? Ah, how much he must hate . I haven’t even spoken, and I’m already being slashed by his glare. Such a hard life.”

Jiang Nanshu looked perplexed, her eyes brimming with tears as if she were a child who had done wrong, she spoke in a quiet voice, “Fifth Brother, please don’t look at like that, I’m really scared. The harm I caused you a year ago, I know that even killing won’t make up for it. So what do I need to do for you to forgive ? Being hated by you is as painful as being fried in oil!”

“Next ti I drug you, you’ll surely forgive . After all, two negatives make a positive, I’m so clever.”

Jiang Zhouye nearly vomited blood. Was she still thinking about drugging him?

He couldn’t help but scoff angrily, “Stop with the pretense, Jiang Nanshu. I warn you, if you dare sche anything against again, I will not let you off.”

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes brimd with tears as she sobbed softly, her voice frail and helpless, “Yeah, yeah, in your eyes, I’m just a bad girl who would do anything.”

“Be at ease, I will not let you off before you get the chance not to let off.”

Jiang Yunchuan: “…”

The atmosphere was so tense, he felt he needed to say sothing.

Then he pushed Jiang Zhouye upstairs, “You better go back to your room and protect your throat. You sound just like a duck, truly offensive to the ears.”

Jiang Zhouye: “…”

Microphone off, thank you.

He suspected that if he stayed any longer downstairs, Jiang Nanshu’s antics would be the death of him.

Plus, he had always thought his throat issues were accidental, not malevolent. Whether it was true or not, he had to investigate.

Jiang Yunchuan heaved a sigh of relief; Jiang Leyi had gone out to see Chu Xin off, leaving just the two of them in the living room.

The mood turned sowhat awkward.

Jiang Nanshu blinked and thought for a mont, deciding to strike up a conversation with her stepbrother, “Fifth Brother, how are things between you and Senior Yueyue?”

Jiang Yunchuan: “???”

Why bring her up again!

“We broke up, no contact after that.”

Jiang Nanshu couldn’t help but sigh and played him a video she’d obtained from Lin Yueyue, “See, Senior Yueyue is drowning her sorrows in alcohol because she broke up with you.”

The bar was a blaze of lights and colors, with Lin Yueyue dressed in a pure white dress, slumped over the counter, a drink still in her hand.

Jiang Yunchuan glanced at it, pausing at the middle-aged man beside her, “What, she needs her ‘daddy’ to accompany her throughout her sorrowful binge?”

Jiang Nanshu had never seen Lin Yueyue’s Golden Master.

So she never expected to crash and burn again.

At that mont, her silence was deafening.

The middle-aged man was not particularly handso, but he exuded the aura of a nouveau riche.

Gold chains, gold rings, gold watches—he wore it all, standing out garishly in the crowd.

The epito of the term “Golden Master.”

Jiang Yunchuan’s gaze was furious, gritting his teeth, “How the hell do I lose out to this kind of old man? I chased her like a lovesick fool for two years, finally got together with her, and even holding hands cost a gift fee of a hundred thousand! Damn, I only have a hundred thousand in pocket money a month, and after dating her for less than half a year, I’m broke as a dog.”

Jiang Nanshu: “…”

Her expression as blank as an elder observing a smartphone: “What about a kiss?”

“Two hundred thousand!”

“What about sleeping together?”

Jiang Yunchuan, sowhat ashad, scratched his red hair, inadvertently looking rather innocent, “Money, not enough, haven’t, haven’t unlocked that yet…”

Jiang Nanshu: “…”

“It’s okay, the fact that you’ve grown this much is already impressive. So being brainless is a gift from heaven to you, you fool.”

“…”
