The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind - Chapter 421 - 420 Marriage Alliance

Chapter 421: Chapter 420 Marriage Alliance

Jiang Nanshu’s pregnancy was almost common knowledge among the inner circle.

Xu Xi had even made several phone calls to inquire about her condition.

Since the pregnancy was still in its early stages and Jiang Nanshu wasn’t experiencing any adverse reactions, she managed to maintain a positive mindset.

In contrast, Lu Qingyan was exceedingly cautious, almost as if he were the one pregnant. He pored over book after book every day—parenting guides, what pregnant women should eat for optimal health, what precautions should be taken—everything was organized clearly and methodically by Lu Qingyan without Jiang Nanshu having to lift a finger.

In this environment, Jiang Nanshu was no longer anxious and simply watched Lu Qingyan busy himself with both the company’s affairs and the household’s.

Another week passed.

Jiang Nanshu was on the phone with Xu Xi.

Due to her pregnancy, Jiang Nanshu had also cut down on going out.

Compared to Xu Xi’s usual chattering, this time she was rather quiet, basically responding to Jiang Nanshu’s comments with single sentences.

Jiang Nanshu quickly sensed something was off and asked, “Xixi, what’s wrong with you?”

After a few seconds, Xu Xi responded slowly, “Jiangjiang, have you heard? Yang Jiashu seems to be entering into a marriage alliance.”

Jiang Nanshu was taken aback and hesitantly said, “I thought he didn’t have to do that. He’s set up his own company, so he shouldn’t be under family constraints anymore.”

“Ha-ha, it’s actually quite nice; we’ll have a wedding banquet to attend soon,” Xu Xi’s voice regained its cheerfulness. “Alas, our Six Love Organization, in the end, we all have to find our own place.”

She muttered to herself, “I need to find a partner too. I don’t want to be the last lonely soul. Jiangjiang, did you hear? Your Fifth Brother is pursuing Sister Yan, but it looks like Sister Yan hasn’t agreed.”

Jiang Nanshu hadn’t heard about Jiang Yunchuan pursuing Yan Yidan, but Jiang Yunchuan would often come to her to find out Yan Yidan’s schedule and whereabouts.

Jiang Nanshu had no idea that Yan Yidan was busy expanding her business empire and had no time to chat with her.

“You really want to find a partner?” Jiang Nanshu asked.

Xu Xi confirmed with a reply, “Of course. There’s a younger guy at our station pursuing me. I think he’s quite nice. It would be pathetic if your child is born and I’m still single.”

Xu Xi pretended to complain.

Jiang Nanshu curved her lips slightly, “You will find someone. Don’t rush it.”

“Let’s stop here, the boss is checking on us,” Xu Xi said in a flurry and hastily hung up the phone.

Jiang Nanshu was pensive. When Lu Qingyan came back in the afternoon, she asked, “Yang Jiashu’s family is arranging a marriage for him?”

“Who told you that?” Lu Qingyan took off his suit and placed it on the coat rack, unbuttoning his cufflinks before rolling up his sleeves to his forearms and headed to the kitchen to wash some fruit.

During this time, he handled everything concerning Jiang Nanshu personally, mistrusting even the hired help, especially with food preparation.

He made at least two trips home each day.

Both at noon and in the afternoon, he would come home to cook for Jiang Nanshu.

Jiang Nanshu inwardly marveled; when this man wasn’t acting crazy, he was quite perfect.

“Xu Xi told me. She said Yang Jiashu was called by his family to enter into a marriage alliance.”

Lu Qingyan washed a bunch of grapes, sat next to Jiang Nanshu and began peeling them for her, popping the peeled grapes into her mouth.

Smiling, he said, “Hmm, his family company ran into some issues, and a marriage alliance is the quickest way to get support. So, for the Yang Family, it’s the best choice for Yang Jiashu to enter into a marriage alliance.”

Jiang Nanshu nodded, “Oh, is he going to agree to it?”
