The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind
Chapter 292: CountermeasuresChapter 292: Chapter 292: Countermeasures
Jiang Hemian clicked his tongue lightly, “What I mean is, she’s very likely the sister we used to deal with.”
Jiang Zhouye’s eyes widened in shock, “This is even better than a celebrity getting busted for soliciting prostitutes in the entertainment industry…”
He scowled, “I’m really speechless, it would have been fine if she hadn’t told me about the medication she put in my milk to treat my throat. Just thinking about it makes me want to hit her. Because of her scheme, I missed a very important New Year’s performance!”
Originally, it was just a cold affecting his throat, but after drinking that milk, he had vomited and suffered diarrhea and ended up in the hospital.
He gritted his teeth, “So according to what you’re saying, if this Chu Muxi is really the Jiang Nanshu we once assumed, and she was the one who drugged me, I had just made peace with that incident and no longer held any grudge against Nannan. Yet she reappears, reigniting my hatred, which is just great.”
Jiang Yunchuan also expressed his irritation, “Damn it, she transferred my money! She actually installed a surveillance camera in my room to monitor my movements and knew my phone’s password. She cleaned out my bank account, then fearing that I would catch her, she hid in a hotel for a week. When brought back, she kept saying it was for my own good. I had a really tough few months, relying on Brother Yan, my older brother, and dad for living expenses, as they only gave a fixed amount and didn’t care if it was exceeded!”
The more he spoke, the angrier he became.
Those months were crucial for him as he was attempting to woo his goddess. Suddenly without money, he couldn’t even afford the 100,000 yuan holding fee, causing Lin Yueyue’s perspective of him to change. She hinted at whether there was a financial crisis in the Jiang family.
Regrettably, he was too love-struck at the time and thought Lin Yueyue was showing concern for him, which led him to tell her about his money being transferred.
If only he had been cleverer then, to test Lin Yueyue’s sincerity by saying his family had gone bankrupt, he might not have wasted years on her.
Thinking about these misfortunes reminded him of his past foolishness.
Manipulated thoroughly by a woman.
Jiang Yunchuan’s expression was gloomy.
Jiang Hemian chuckled coldly, “I didn’t want the ointment she made at first. Mom sent someone to deliver it, saying it was Jiang Nanshu’s plea for peace. At that time, I didn’t want to pick on a girl. But that ointment almost ruined my almost healed hand. The bones got inflamed, and I was in pain for more than a week. Otherwise, why would I want to stab her when I see her? There’s a cause for every effect.”
From the side basket, Jiang Jingcheng picked up a new pool cue. His expression was detached, “Besides the nude photos incident, there was another matter where I had to perform surgery on a patient. The surgery was very complex, and it took me days to study thoroughly. I went home to rest one day, and she put a large dose of sleeping pills in my tea that night. I missed the surgery, but fortunately, the patient was fine, and it was postponed by a day. Missing that optimal treatment window left no chance for another.”
“A big reason I don’t want to go home is the trauma from that incident. I’m not guarded against my own family.”
Jiang Jingcheng finished speaking.
Everyone fell silent.
Looking back… they really had reasons to dislike Jiang Nanshu in the past.
Not just her being blindly infatuated with Lu Qingyan, running all over the streets after him.
Nor her reckless defamation of Jiang Leyi.
Jealousy was her nature.
She couldn’t bear to see someone doing better than her, so she had to suppress that person to savor the satisfaction.
Nowadays, Jiang Nanshu’s indifferent attitude towards them from the beginning was much more genuine.
The destiny that should have unfolded changed because of her, in some sense. It wasn’t Jiang Nanshu who needed them; rather, they needed Jiang Nanshu.
Perhaps she never changed; it was their perspective that shifted.
From initial loathing to genuinely regarding her as a sister now.
“It’s been a while, have you guys figured anything out?” Jiang Yisen’s voice came from behind, breaking their silence.
Jiang Yunchuan shrugged his shoulders and slumped into the chair as if defeated. “I don’t know, but I won’t acknowledge Chu Muxi. I have a feeling if mom really recognizes her, our peaceful life at home will be disrupted. Before, it was only Yiyi she targeted, now there seems to be another one she wants to drive out of the house.”
Drive Jiang Nanshu out again?
Outsiders don’t know about the complicated issues within the Jiang family, they would only think they despise Jiang Nanshu’s background, looking down on her, thus driving her away, which also ruins their reputation.
With such a large family business, even supporting a hundred Jiang Nanshu’s would be feasible.
Jiang Jingcheng threw his golf club into the basket, no longer interested in playing.
Even if the field was still brightly lit, it couldn’t compare to the real daylight, the ball was too far to see clearly.
“Big brother, what do you think? How should we handle this?” Jiang Jingcheng asked.
Jiang Yisen lit a cigarette, handed one to Jiang Jingcheng who took it without hesitation.
Biting the cigarette, Jiang Jingcheng borrowed a lighter from Jiang Yisen, his expression indifferent, “Thanks.”
Jiang Yisen looked at the remaining three and smiled, “Do you guys want one too?”
Jian Hemian waved his hand in refusal, “No thanks, I don’t smoke.”
Jiang Zhouye stared into the night sky, “Not in the mood.”
Jiang Yunchuan sighed, “Me neither.”
They declined, and Jiang Yisen didn’t insist. He continued discussing the matter, “What’s important isn’t us but what dad and mom think. If they want to take her in, who could stop them?”
It was the same when Jiang Nanshu first arrived.
Holding a paternity test.
Mr. Jiang, initially shocked, took only ten minutes to accept it.
Later, when he found out Mrs. Jiang had also gone for the test, he had her received at the Jiang Building and ignored her.
He rushed back from a business meeting, holding a piece of mousse cake Fang Minghe had given to all CEOs collaborating with the Fang Group.
It was mango-flavored, which he loved.
He hadn’t even taken a bite when Jiang Nanshu secretly ate it.
Afterwards, she looked so touched and said he knew she was hungry and had brought her lunch.
He knew nothing!
He was even furious to death.
Who would consider a small cake as lunch?
He hadn’t eaten any of it.
Since that day, he sent Jiang Nanshu to a villa. Eventually, she became more presumptuous, running to the company every now and then to boss around, ordering his subordinates to do this and that. Not doing well meant getting off lightly with just a scolding, his employees couldn’t stand it anymore and many switched to Bao Yan Company directly, which benefitted their competition while his company suffered. Later he explicitly forbade her from entering the company premises unless she cleaned everywhere she walked.
Jiang Zhouye stroked his chin, “That’s true… I see mom seems to have already acknowledged Chu Muxi, but what about Chu Xin? After all, she is Chu Muxi’s biological mother, we can’t just sever ties, can we?”
Jiang Yisen tossed a folder he’d been holding onto a small table, his lips slightly curled in a smile, “Actually, taking her in might be okay, it just depends on whether mom can handle it. You guys take a look at what I found.”
