The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind - Chapter 438: 437

Chapter 438: Chapter 437

Yu Zhuyin fainted from excessive fright and, owing to some poisonous snake bites, she was hospitalized directly.

Without Yu Zhuyin, that annoying clown, hopping around him, Lu Qingyan finally felt that the air around him had become much fresher.

“If she dares to come again, it won’t be as simple as a snake bite.”

It served as a warning to Yu Xiao too—Miannan’s reach didn’t extend into Hua Country.

In the evening, as Lu Qingyan applied essential oil to Jiang Nanshu, he said, “She probably won’t come bouncing before me again for a while.”

“Oh, as long as you’ve handled it yourself,” Jiang Nanshu didn’t react much—it wasn’t her thorny love matter, anyway.

“Lu Qingyan, how’s the Yang Family doing lately?” Jiang Nanshu suddenly remembered and asked.

The Yang Family?

“Jiashu refused an arranged marriage, quarreled with his family, and then left the Yang Family.” Lu Qingyan glanced at Jiang Nanshu. “Is he living with Xu Xi?”

Jiang Nanshu nodded: “Yeah, they’re dating.”

Afterwards, considering the many schemes of wealthy families, she asked, “His mother won’t force them to break up, will she?”

Lu Qingyan thought for a moment. In his memory, Mrs. Yang was a very gentle person who didn’t interfere much with her son’s life, adopting a hands-off approach.

However, the current situation of the Yang Family was indeed not optimistic.

He shook his head: “I’m not sure, but they probably wouldn’t have if the Yang Family hadn’t run into trouble.”

So, does the Yang Family’s crisis now necessitate Jiashu’s arranged marriage to smooth things over?

Jiang Nanshu was now beginning to worry about Xu Xi.

But there seemed to be no issues on her end; she was probably talking things through well with Jiashu.

“In a few days, my third brother is getting married. Come with me,” she said.

Jian Hemian’s wife was a researcher, and they had been dating for nearly two years before deciding to marry.

Jian Hemian was not young either, thirty-two this year.

Jiang Jingcheng was his twin and still single for now, but Jiang Nanshu thought her few brothers would probably all be getting married in the next few years.

The day of Jian Hemian’s wedding was quite grand. As a relative of Hemian, Jiang Nanshu sat at the main table in the front with the Ji Family’s parents.

Mr. Jiang acknowledged the Ji Family as god-relatives, grateful for their care of Jiang Nanshu, which meant the two families would have interactions during holidays and festivals.

Jiang Nanshu was indifferent, but Father Ji and Mrs. Ji felt they were reaching above their station.

Jiang Nanshu then explained to them that Ji Ze would eventually need support once he entered society, and such free assistance was not to be wasted. Now, Ji Ze was starting a business with his roommate, and in this society, having more connections meant having more paths.

Father Ji and Mrs. Ji, thinking this way, quelled their thoughts of refusal.

Most of the guests at the wedding were prominent figures from the Beijing Circle. Jiang Nanshu knew some and didn’t know others, but they were all there.

Jiang Zhouye took a day off from his variety show to attend his brother’s wedding as well.

Even Bao Yan, whom she hadn’t seen for several months, appeared.

He looked no different on the outside, yet his overall presence had become more restrained and profound.

Upon seeing Lu Qingyan, he could even pleasantly approach to greet him.

Lu Qingyan wouldn’t forget their past fights—he was far from being fond of Bao Yan and didn’t even respond to his greeting, plainly displaying their discord.

Bao Yan wasn’t annoyed and focused on Jiang Nanshu’s bulging belly, smiling slyly: “This child is fortunate to be born into President Lu’s home.”

Lu Qingyan blocked Bao Yan’s view and scoffed coldly, “I’m not close enough with you to discuss children.”

“In the business world, we see each other regardless of whether we want to or not; I was too impulsive before. It’s just a woman—her death won’t stop me from making money,” Bao Yan said with a laugh in his voice.

His usually cold expression unexpectedly softened.

Lu Qingyan frowned slightly and led Jiang Nanshu away: “Hmm, then I wish you success.”

After Lu Qingyan left, Bao Yan’s expression gradually turned cold.

He let out a sigh, a storm brewing in his eyes.

His Wanwan was dead, how dare these people who killed her live in this world.

They all should go to hell to apologize to his Wanwan.

He too…

Once he had sent them down, he would meet his Wanwan.

It would be soon, he would soon be successful…

Bao Yan attended the wedding banquet with his usual demeanor, because of Lu Qingyan’s statement, many of the partners who were originally on good terms with him had kept their distance.

In the business world, just like the battlefield, these people are accustomed to reading the room, they will choose the side that benefits themselves, and the Lu Family, rising high in the Beijing Circle, was a company many dreamed of collaborating with, while Bao Yan’s progressively declining company had many fewer partners.

After Bao Yan left, the driving assistant said, “Mr. Bo, the Miss Yu Zhuyin you asked us to keep an eye on has been discharged from the hospital, and it seems they are about to leave Hua Country.”

Bao Yan looked down.

Leave?

The show has just begun. If they leave now, how will the good show continue?

In his eyes, Yu Zhuyin was nothing.

But her brother, Yu Xiao’s influence spread across Southeast Asia.

And coincidentally, Yu Xiao had only this one sister, Yu Zhuyin.

If his sister died…

What kind of retaliation Lu Qingyan would face is unknown.

Just thinking about it, Bao Yan felt the blood within him boiling with excitement.

“Have someone stop them at the airport, tell them… I have a way to help her get close to Lu Qingyan.”

The assistant harbored no doubts.

He simply thought Bao Yan wanted to curry favor and then talk about partnership with this young lady who appeared to have a substantial background.

After all, the company was not doing well; if it closed down, they would all be unemployed.

After Bao Yan finished giving instructions, he made a call to Su Ran.

The other side picked up quickly: “Mr. Bo.”

Bao Yan spoke calmly, “How is your daughter’s condition recently?”

Su Ran was terrified, uncertain of the meaning behind Bao Yan’s words, so she cautiously replied, “We are still looking for a suitable bone marrow donor, and she has not recovered. Mr. Bo, is there something you need from me?”

Her mind raced with speculation. Could it be that she was to go after Jiang Nanshu?

But Jiang Nanshu was only five months pregnant; to harm her now would mean harming not one, but two lives.

Su Ran gripped her phone tightly, “Is it about that matter? Jiang Nanshu is only five months pregnant right now. I, I can’t bring myself to do it, can we wait a bit longer? I will definitely give you a satisfactory result.”

After a moment, Bao Yan laughed softly, “But you’ve taken my money, Su Ran.”

Su Ran pursed her lips, her voice trembling, “I’m sorry, I really… can’t harm an innocent little life, I can’t bring myself to do it.”

Bao Yan sighed lightly, “If you had said so from the start, I wouldn’t have asked you to do this kind of thing, Su Ran.”

Su Ran fell silent; she didn’t know Jiang Nanshu was pregnant at the beginning.

If she had known…

If she had known, perhaps…

Su Ran would not have agreed to Bao Yan’s request but would have sought other ways to raise money for her daughter.
