The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind Chapter 70 - 70 70 Jiang Nanshus Double Standards
Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Jiang Nanshu’s Double Standards Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Jiang Nanshu’s Double Standards Jiang Nanshu internally mocked the lodramatic love story of the original novel’s male and female leads.
It was like an old lady’s footbinding cloth, stinky and lengthy.
It made people’s brains shrink.
Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help sighing either.
They had always said that a forced lon isn’t sweet, yet they insisted on tying Lu Qingyan down. It’d be odd if he showed their daughter a pleasant face.
Seeing that Lu Qingyan didn’t speak,
Mr. Jiang then said, “Young Master Lu, back then Nannan agreed to this marriage because she liked him. We had no choice but to agree, without considering Young Master Lu’s attitude. Now that everything has co full circle, let’s not make the sa mistake again.”
“Wow, this is the first ti I’ve found you two agreeable. I can’t be the obstacle stopping him from running towards Su Ran.”
Jiang Nanshu vehently nodded internally, yes, that’s right.
Rectifying the chaos and erasing this bug.
It affects her earning one billion!
Old Sir Lu looked at Jiang Nanshu, who was silent with her head down, and then at his grandson, who was staring at Jiang Nanshu with a not-so-good expression on his face.
Suddenly, he had an idea.
He pulled a check from his pocket.
“I gave Su Ran 30 million back then to leave you. Nanshu was personally picked by as my granddaughter-in-law. Even if the marriage is annulled, it should be done with dignity. Here’s one billion as divorce compensation.”
Jiang Nanshu: “!!!”
She looked up, shocked.
One billion?!
Divorce compensation?!!!
She glanced at Lu Qingyan and noticed he hadn’t taken his eyes off her.
“What are you looking at, you broke dog? Give 10 million for a divorce and still so stingy. Whimper, whimper, Grandpa is better. From today on, he’s my real grandpa, and I will take care of him until his last days.”
Lu Qingyan: “…”
His brow twitched.
Seeing Jiang Nanshu with tears in her eyes, looking moved as she gazed at Old Sir Lu,
he almost burst out in frustration.
This woman, really!
Such a double standard!
Seeing Jiang Nanshu’s earnest face, Old Sir Lu’s heart softened.
What a cute and beautiful girl, why doesn’t this foolish boy like her!
Seeing her cry over the impending annulnt; oh my, she must really love his grandson.
Jiang Nanshu wringing her hands, “Grandpa Lu, I…”
Old Sir Lu interrupted her, “Don’t rush Nanshu, let ask him.”
“Xiao Yan, do you really want to annul the marriage?”
Previously, he would have answered quickly, but this ti, it seed sothing was stuck in his throat, and he hesitated…
“He can’t wait, don’t start any more trouble for , I refuse to be a pushover anymore, just agree, or I’ll look down on you!”
Lu Qingyan’s face was frighteningly cold: “Willing, let’s annul it.”
Jiang Nanshu breathed a sigh of relief.
She could already see one billion waving at her.
Old Sir Lu sighed internally; at seventy years old, he thought the boy’s tone held mostly spite.
Sotis, truly scattered thoughts, but there might be regrets later.
Taking a deep breath, he asked Jiang Nanshu again, “And what about you, Nanshu? What do you think?”
What could she think, except the quicker, the better.
But in other people’s eyes, she had always been soone who admired Lu Qingyan. She couldn’t suddenly break character.
She bit her lip, passing through pain, sorrow, despair, and a lingering resignation on her face.
Finally, with tearful eyes, she resigned, “Although I’m very reluctant to part with Brother Qingyan, more than that reluctance, I’m afraid of him hating .”
Lu Qingyan just silently watched her act.
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached this point,
Jiang Nanshu finally voiced her heavy decision: “So, regarding this marriage, I am also willing…”
“I knew it, Nanshu, you can’t bear to part from this wretched boy,” Old Sir Lu suddenly interrupted her.
Jiang Nanshu: “?”
Could he wait for her to finish speaking?
“Grandpa Lu, what I an is…”
“I know, suddenly calling off the engagent must have caught you unprepared. I’ve heard from your parents that you are suffering from severe depression. I don’t want to upset you and worsen your condition.”
“…”
She wasn’t sick; she was perfectly fine!
“That’s not it, I…”
“Let’s keep it on hold for now.”
Before Mrs. Lu’s mouth could curve into a smile, Old Sir Lu struck her with another blow, “Dad! Xiao Yan had already agreed, how can you do this…”
“What I’m saying applies to both parties. Didn’t you see that Nanshu is reluctant?” Old Sir Lu was irrational yet forceful.
He completely ignored the shock hidden in Jiang Nanshu’s eyes.
Cough, he thought the marriage was quite good.
Mrs. Lu, too agitated to maintain her elegance, exclaid, “Dad, she’s a girl not yet nineteen, going to bars and picking male models; if word gets out, won’t it disgrace the Lu Family?”
“So what? Who didn’t enjoy bars when they were young? Who didn’t fancy a few male models!” Old Sir Lu was full of vigor, “It’s just eighteen male models; she’s young, what’s wrong with looking at handso guys? Your son acts all high and mighty, doesn’t allow touching or holding, won’t even let the young lady have so fun?”
“When I was young, I was even happier than her!”
Mrs. Lu: “…”
Lu Qingyan: “…”
This really was his own grandfather.
Old Sir Lu’s heart was filled with tears.
For his grandson’s marriage, he was compromising his integrity in his old age.
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
[I should have dropped this whole pretense earlier; now it has plunged straight into the depths of hell!]
Mr. Jiang wiped his sweat, relieved.
Besides their family, outsiders couldn’t hear how lively her inner thoughts were.
Otherwise, trouble would surely follow!
Look at what Lu Crown Prince beca due to her disdain.
“This is what we’ll do,” Old Sir Lu continued to declare loudly, “You two try to get along for another three months. If it really doesn’t work out, then call off the engagent. I can’t joke with the happiness of two young people. In-laws, what do you think?”
The last question was directed at Mr. Jiang.
Mr. Jiang hesitated, “That depends on Nannan herself…”
Old Sir Lu stuffed a one-billion cheque into Jiang Nanshu’s hand, “Whether you call it off or not, I’ll give you this money. Nanshu, give it another three months, you two young people should get to know each other better. I know you are reluctant to part with Xiao Yan, he will definitely see your good qualities.”
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
Good prospects are probably blind.
But the venom she needed to show wouldn’t lessen.
She glanced at Lu Qingyan, noticing him with his eyes downturned, lost in thought.
[It’s strange, unhappy with calling off the engagent and unhappy without calling it off. Were you born averse to smiling or what?]
Without waiting for Jiang Nanshu to speak, Old Sir Lu rubbed his head, “Ah, my head hurts. Let’s talk another ti. I need to go get a massage. Xiao Yan, co with to the study. Butler, please escort Nanshu and her family out.”
Mrs. Lu, looking disdainful, glanced at Jiang Nanshu and then went upstairs.
She must have a serious talk with Old Sir Lu!
Jiang Nanshu held the cheque in her hand.
She finally understood.
Old Sir Lu had no intention of letting them call off the engagent; the billion was just to soothe her, to keep her from overthinking.
What a good old man indeed.
Squeezing the check, Jiang Nanshu revealed a genuinely heartfelt smile.
[The man might not be mine, but the money must be!]
…
On the second floor, in the study.
Old Sir Lu entered and locked the door.
It was just him and Lu Qingyan.
Since the engagent wasn’t called off, Lu Qingyan’s tense expression relaxed a bit.
But the sly young fellow had yet to realize it.
He sighed, “Xiao Yan, be honest with your grandpa, are you still not over Su Ran?”
After a long pause, Lu Qingyan shook his head, “Grandpa, my decisions have never been because of her. She’s not influential enough to affect . Three years ago, she saved my life, and I promised her one request. She said after graduation, she wants to be with .”
Old Sir Lu’s hand tightened around his cane, “Did you agree?”
After a long while, Lu Qingyan nodded, “I agreed.”
