Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Of course, chase her back and coax her
Chapter 25 -25 Of course, chase her back and coax her
Su Ran’s eyes wandered over, only to spot Jiang Nanshu close with Lu Qingyan, a sight that painfully clenched her heart.
Back then, it was her own uncertainty that led to Lu Qingyan not waiting for her at the original place, and that was understandable.
She had comforted herself with this thought upon returning to the country, but seeing it firsthand still stung her eyes.
She had admired the youth, radiant as the scorching sun, for six years, watching him grow further and further away from her.
The corpulent woman couldn’t be bothered to argue, and as she reached out to grab Su Ran’s hair, Cheng An shoved her away fiercely, causing her to fall on her behind, gnashing her teeth and wailing.
Jiang Nanshu couldn’t help but hold Lu Qingyan even tighter.
She had just heard the clear sound of breaking bones and surmised a fracture.
“Ouch, if I fell like that, I’d make my face bloom, and it would still not look good, it seems really painful. I fear pain the most.”
Cheng An was red with anger and looked towards Lu Qingyan, “Brother Yan, do you really intend to ignore Su Ran for this marriage contract? If it weren’t for Ranran, you would have died long ago. Just for 30 million, you forgot all those past bonds…”
“Anzi, stop…” Su Ran grabbed Cheng An to halt his advance, continuously shaking her head at him.
Tears shimmered on her beautiful face, even Jiang Nanshu, a girl, would have found them heart-melting.
It’s no wonder several men have desperately chased her in the original story.
Lu Qingyan brushed off Jiang Nanshu’s hand, stepped forward, and looked coldly at Su Ran, “It seems today’s timing is unfortunate. We’ll talk about what you want next time.”
He then turned to Cheng An, lifted his cold facade slightly, and elaborated word by word, “Since Jiang Nanshu is my fiancée, until this marriage contract is terminated, she remains so, and I will take responsibility for this marriage. As for the past bond you mentioned…”
He looked towards Su Ran again, his dark eyes pressurizing her into a deathly pale complexion, “You should ask her, did I ever give her a choice? Why should I have to wait for her just because she turned back? If you like her, go ahead and pursue her, I wish you well. I’m not joking.”
With that last word.
Su Ran’s lashes trembled, she wanted to step forward to hold Lu Qingyan but restrained herself vigorously.
She wiped her tears and laughed bitterly, “Lu Qingyan… how cruel you are.”
The plot of the male and female leads was turning intense.
Over here, Jiang Nanshu felt like the sky had fallen on her, a pail of cold water leaving her chilled to the bone.
She grabbed the small assistant next to Jiang Leyi.
Her complexion was even whiter than Su Ran’s, her voice trembling as she asked, “What did he just say? Who does he need to take responsibility for? My ears are a bit bad, I didn’t hear clearly…”
The little assistant couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her, thinking she was playing dumb after gaining advantage, and snorted, “Who else would he take responsibility for if not you, his fiancée? The Lu Family Crown Prince is truly a fresh flower stuck in cow dung, utterly wasted by you!”
Perhaps truly not wanting to see Jiang Nanshu succeed, she stormed off to find Jiang Leyi.
And Jiang Nanshu’s reaction seemed joyously foolish in their eyes.
But none took it seriously.
That was surely the harsh words of Lu Qingyan trying to upset Bai Yueguang.
Back then, to avoid this marriage, he had knelt for five days, nearly crippling his legs, yet Young Master Lu stubbornly went through with giving Jiang Nanshu to him.
Everyone rumored that for Bai Yueguang’s sake, he has remained chaste, never even looking directly at his betrothed for three years.
Now with Bai Yueguang back in the country, Jiang Nanshu’s days were numbered—it was only a matter of time.
So, what everyone understood, why didn’t Lu Qingyan?!
Jiang Nanshu quickly sought to figure out the crux of the entire incident, realizing it all started from the sudden non-cancellation of their engagement.
She called out to the system, “Da Shachun, I don’t know if the main characters are being tortured, but this plot is kind of torturing me, so is there any way to get the story back on track?”
Da Shachun: “…”
After careful consideration, it offered a solution, “Well, why don’t you figure out a way to end this marriage? That should fix it, this must be a bug. Find the bug, solve the bug, and it should return to normal.”
Jiang Nanshu touched her chin, “Makes sense.”
But how would she end the marriage? She had always played the loyal devotee.
Why does this make her out of character?
She’s practically pulling her hair out.
But for one billion, if she needs to reshape her personality, it’s not out of the question.
She psyched herself up in her mind.
“Two’s company is torture, three’s a crowd too, so adding myself isn’t too much, right? I’m joining you guys!”
Lu Qingyan: “?”

He turned his head, only to see Jiang Nanshu charging over, pointing at him accusingly, “Tell me, what are you here to do with Su Ran? What have you two been discussing behind my back? Oh, I get it—it’s because I’m in the way of your love, wishing I’d just pack up and disappear, right? Lu Qingyan, let’s break off the engagement! I refuse to be the pitiful one in love anymore.”
The room fell silent, unable to believe that words like breaking off the engagement could come from Jiang Nanshu’s mouth.
Lu Qingyan was just about to take responsibility for the marriage when she jumped in, heartbroken, wanting to call it off.
Jiang Jingcheng’s usually indifferent eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Jiang Leyi. “What do you think of her acting?”
Jiang Leyi: “… Unprecedented, absolutely stunning. She deserves an Oscar.”
Jiang Jingcheng, with one hand in his pocket, his black hair swaying with the wind, said, “There’s been some trouble with the youngest, he might need to come home and lay low for a while, you should come home too.”
Jiang Leyi, knowing she couldn’t outsmart this second brother, then asked, “Why do I need to go back too? To mediate?”
Everyone knew that Zhou Ye and Jiang Nanshu didn’t get along.
She was indeed afraid that the two of them might start fighting if they were together.
He slightly curved his lips, “Since Jiang Nanshu is a member of the Jiang Family, there’s no reason to push her out. As siblings, they should cultivate their feelings too, right?”
Jiang Leyi: “…”
“I got it… but if the fourth brother wants to fight, I can’t stop him.”
“You don’t need to.”
“Huh?”
“The fourth can’t beat her.”
Jiang Leyi: ???
Jiang Jingcheng had actually watched the whole scene where Jiang Nanshu grabbed the troublemaker and slammed him against the wall.
With that level of ruthlessness, he didn’t believe Zhou Ye could bully Jiang Nanshu.
How could someone change so much?
Jiang Jingcheng had never figured it out; he could only attribute this phenomenon to a second personality that emerged after Jiang Nanshu had jumped into the river.
This personality would emerge when she faced danger or became agitated.
Jiang Jingcheng took a phone call and said to Jiang Leyi, “Don’t worry about her for now, I need to head to the hospital for a patient.”
“Alright.”
By the time she regained her composure,
Jiang Nanshu, crying, had run out of the campus.
So she couldn’t help but twitch her lips a bit, thinking how great it is to be young, so lively and energetic.
Cheng An sneered, looking at Lu Qingyan, with a hint of sarcasm, “Wasn’t she your darling? Now she’s stepping all over you, asking for a divorce to stay relevant. Aren’t you going to chase after her and coax her?”
Lu Qingyan’s silhouette remained still, his dark eyes earnestly looking at Cheng An, “Are you sure you want to disregard our years of friendship over a girl?”
Cheng An faltered, but remembering the harm Su Ran had suffered, he quickly said, “As long as you’re with Su Ran, we can still be brothers. I can’t stand to see that vicious woman showing off in front of Ranran. Since she’s talking about divorce, you’d better strike while the iron’s hot. You won’t get another chance like this!”
After a long while, Lu Qingyan sighed softly and began walking toward the campus exit.
Thinking he had been persuaded, Cheng An quickly asked, “Where are you going?”
Lu Qingyan, striding forward, casually dropped a line, “Of course, to chase her down and coax her.”
