The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind
Chapter 307: 307: I Don't Belong to This WorldChapter 307: Chapter 307: I Don’t Belong to This World
Zhou Yanbai didn’t expect to meet Lu Qingyan here.
He was a man with a strong possessive desire, so when he found out that Su Ran had left him to return to the country and find her first love, he wanted to kill them both.
Su Ran’s first wasn’t given to him.
No matter how he pressured her, she claimed ignorance, hiding her lover exceptionally well. So, was this man Lu Qingyan?
The corners of Zhou Yanbai’s mouth lifted in a mocking smile as he looked towards Jiang Nanshu with his deep gaze. When he met her clear, innocent eyes, an unexplainable sense of familiarity overwhelmed him. He didn’t like Jiang Nanshu looking at him.
Suppressing the violent tendencies deep within him, he teased easily, “Young Master Lu, your companion is quite beautiful.”
“Thank you, she is my fiancée,” Lu Qingyan replied, holding Jiang Nanshu’s hand and correcting Zhou Yanbai.
Zhou Yanbai raised his eyebrows slightly, surprised to learn that Lu Qingyan was engaged.
He glanced at Su Ran with a half-smile, no wonder his pursuit was unsuccessful; she was already taken.
He pulled back Su Ran, who was trying to shrink away, and placed his hand on her shoulder, “Young Master Lu, care to guess our relationship?”
Su Ran looked at him incredulously.
He knew that her greatest fear was their relationship being revealed, yet he confronted her this way in front of Lu Qingyan.
Su Ran literally wanted to kill Zhou Yanbai.
Lu Qingyan replied with indifferent eyes, “Not interested, I’m taking my fiancée out for dinner now, President Zhou, please feel free to entertain yourself.”
“How cold, not fun at all,” Zhou Yanbai complained, then smiled, “Let me introduce her, this is my sister, Su Ran.”
Su Ran’s heart almost leaped out.
Her heart finally settled back after Zhou Yanbai’s last two words.
[His sister, indeed.]
Lu Qingyan’s gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment.
He nodded at Zhou Yanbai, acknowledging the introduction.
Zhou Yanbai stepped aside to let them take the elevator first.
His gaze unabashedly rested on Jiang Nanshu’s face, causing Lu Qingyan to frown unhappily, and Su Ran’s anxiety morphed into resentment.
Why did Jiang Nanshu always capture everyone’s attention upon her arrival? Her resentment slowly turned into jealousy.
Until they disappeared.
“Did you like her too?” Su Ran asked.
Zhou Yanbai withdrew his gaze and tilted his head to look at her, “In what capacity are you questioning me?”
Su Ran’s lips parted slightly, and she looked down silently.
Her silence signified her stance, fear aside, she still disliked him.
Indeed, who would like someone always prone to fits of madness?
Zhou Yanbai scoffed, “I don’t like her; I want to kill her.”
Su Ran, remembering the image of them holding hands, felt jealousy wrap tightly around her like vines.
She flicked her hair near her ear and smiled at Zhou Yanbai, “Does your offer to give me her eyes as a gift still stand?”
Zhou Yanbai watched her quietly, then suddenly laughed, “Want them? Not scared anymore?”
“Why would I fear someone I despise? You could even turn her into a doll, and I wouldn’t mind.”
Zhou Yanbai’s lips curved up in pleasure, “Fine, I will ensure she dies in Port City.”
…
At night.
Jiang Nanshu inquired at the front desk. There were many rooms available.
So she immediately got one for him, dismissing the thought of him staying with her.
Lu Qingyan: “…”
“I’ll only be in Port City for two days before I leave.”
“So soon?”
Lu Qingyan nodded, “I have some matters to deal with, then I’ll head back to Beijing, so…”
“No! My sister is also here, and I can’t let her see you leaving my room early in the morning.”
Jiang Leyi?
When did she start caring about Jiang Leyi’s feelings?
That’s not right…
Why did he need Jiang Leyi’s permission to sleep with Jiang Nanshu?
His face turned a faint shade of blue-black, “Why?”
Jiang Nanshu struggled for a while before slowly saying, “It looks bad…”
Lu Qingyan sneered, “Hmph.”
After sending the person away, Jiang Nanshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Her hotel room drawer was filled with news about Zhou Yanxu.
How could she possibly let Lu Qingyan find out!
Da Shachun, witnessing the whole process, texted: [Host, you’re really terrible.]
Jiang Nanshu was indifferent, “I’m just seriously completing the mission; I won’t fall in love with him.”
Da Shachun: [You’re playing with his emotions!]
Jiang Nanshu tilted her head, “But I am also seriously dating him now, fulfilling the image of the girlfriend he needs. Even if we break up, it can only be considered a relationship discord. In this period, I haven’t betrayed him, isn’t that enough? Who says that dating must end in marriage?”
Da Shachun: […]
That kind of made sense, convinced.
[Alright then, what if he turns evil…]
Jiang Nanshu: “Then we’ll just see who is more ruthless.”
Da Shachun: […Alright.]
It dared not utter a word.
Jiang Nanshu went to get her nightgown and casually asked, “Would this world’s Zhou Yanbai overlap with the original world’s him? Like, could the two become one person with the memories of the original world?”
Da Shachun: [It’s unlikely… But the magnetic field of this world is a bit strange; I suggest the host leave as soon as possible.]
“It’ll be soon, I can leave this month if nothing unexpected happens.”
…
The next day.
It was overcast.
Jiang Nanshu was going to the crew, while Lu Qingyan had work matters to attend to.
He drove her to the door and left.
As the car drove away, Jiang Nanshu finally withdrew her gaze.
Jiang Leyi teased from behind her, “Why the longing look? Can’t bear to see him go?”
Jiang Nanshu lips curved in a small smile, “A little, but he’s busy and can’t stay with me all the time.”
Seeing her like this, Jiang Leyi, afraid her sister had relapsed into her love-struck ways, shook her head and muttered, “At least you didn’t chase after him, that’s progress. By the way, I heard from Fifth Brother that Chu Muxi chased Lu Qingyan to Port City; he told us to be careful around her.”
Speaking of which, Jiang Leyi frowned and cursed softly, “That psycho, really has issues in her head.”
Jiang Nanshu hesitated, her lips pursed, and she looked a bit sad, “Sister, actually there are some things I haven’t been honest about because they are too incredible, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to accept them.”
Jiang Leyi’s heart skipped a beat.
She couldn’t be about to confess that she wasn’t Jiang Nanshu, but that Chu Muxi was the real “Jiang Nanshu,” could she?
The Jiang Nanshu in Jiang Leyi’s heart loved to eat crispy pork; she was soft-hearted and kind, gentle, and obedient. Even if this was wrong, just let it be wrong all the way.
She really really liked Jiang Nanshu a lot.
Jiang Leyi covered her ears, her tone unintentionally a bit petulant, “Don’t say it, I don’t want to hear it.”
Jiang Nanshu reached out and grabbed her hand, her eyes watery as she looked at her, “Sister, only you can help me with this.”
In the end, Jiang Leyi couldn’t resist Jiang Nanshu’s coquettish plead.
Somewhat irritably waving her hand, “Go on, but I won’t do what I cannot do!”
“I want to tell you a secret.”
Jiang Nanshu looked at her, her dark shiny eyes brimming with sadness, “Actually, I don’t belong to this world.”
