The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Nannan, Have You Forgiven Me?

Jiang Yunchuan understood in an instant.

It was because of Jiang Nanshu’s heartfelt words that Jian Hemian had escaped a disaster.

He felt relieved, grateful for Jiang Nanshu...

A few people were getting ready to go to the cafeteria for lunch.

Jiang Yunchuan’s phone rang, and seeing the caller ID, he walked aside to answer.

After about two minutes, he hung up, his expression somewhat grim as he returned.

Looking at Jiang Nanshu, he hesitated to speak.

"What are you looking at me like that for? Does it make you feel uncomfortable?"

Jiang Yunchuan: "..."

He turned to Yang Jiashu, "Jiashu, you go ahead, order our portions too, and tell Yan Yidan and Xu Xi that Nannan and I have some matters to deal with, so we’ll be late."

"Ah? What’s so urgent that it needs to be dealt with right at mealtime? Can’t it wait till later?" Yang Jiashu asked. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Jiang Yunchuan vaguely replied, "Just some issues to handle... Don’t wait for us; go ahead and eat."

Having said that, he pulled Jiang Nanshu away.

"Hey? Fifth Brother, what are you doing? I’m hungry and want to eat!"

Jiang Nanshu tried to pull away but couldn’t.

Jiang Yunchuan moved forward, "Just come with me first."

"What’s with all the secrecy? Don’t tell me you’re taking me to see someone I don’t want to see?"

Jiang Yunchuan’s expression stiffened—no need to be so sensitive.

At the pavilion behind the school.

Jiang Nanshu saw Mrs. Jiang.

She turned to look at Jiang Yunchuan, saying nothing but her gaze was unfriendly.

Jiang Yunchuan felt a bit awkward, "Nannan... Mom wants to see you, to talk to you in person. She’s been begging me over the phone and has been waiting at the school for over half an hour. I decided to bring you here..."

"See me? Didn’t you see the hatred in her eyes? She must still be resentful that I haven’t apologized to the Song family."

Mrs. Jiang looked haggard.

Still thinking about the apology to the Song family?

If it weren’t for the things she had done, how could it have led to her being disliked by her family and her heartfelt words leading to an investigation of the Song family? Of course, she was innocent—her family could never wrong her.

But now, to avoid divorce, she could only beg Jiang Nanshu to come home.

Thinking this, her eyes suddenly reddened, and she quickly grabbed Jiang Nanshu’s hand, "Nannan... Mom won’t force you to apologize to them anymore. I’ve realized it was all Yichen’s and Ke Xia’s fault. I’m sorry I didn’t stand by your side right away. I cared too much about what the family felt and neglect your feelings as my own daughter. It’s all my fault; can you forgive Mom?"

Jiang Yunchuan also hoped Jiang Nanshu would come back—they had been living separately for nearly a month.

Because she wasn’t home, he didn’t even feel like returning on weekends.

But he was unsure, given Jiang Nanshu’s personality; it wasn’t easy to say if she would forgive her mother.

Indeed, the next second, Jiang Nanshu broke away.

"How good would it have been if you had treated me like this from the beginning?"

Her words were light, yet they tightened Mrs. Jiang’s heart, a pang of heartache flickering momentarily. She failed to grasp it and instead pinched the palm of her hand, forcing herself to be rational.

"Nannan, people make mistakes. What’s important is to learn from them. Your father sighs every day because you are not home, and I regret the harsh words I spoke that day... Nannan, come home with Mom. I promise I won’t treat you that way ever again," Mrs. Jiang continued, determined to coax Jiang Nanshu back.

"Promises that can’t be kept might bring divine retribution, Mrs. Song. Are you sure you’ll be nice to me in the future? I’m easily persuaded by kindness, and I might actually believe it."

Jiang Nanshu pursed her lips, her eyes sad as she looked at her, "Do you know how long it has been since I left the Jiang family? A whole twenty-five days, and every day, I hoped you would sincerely invite me home instead of blindly pinning the blame on me and forcing me to kneel and apologize."

"I no longer believe any of your words."

"If you had believed me from the beginning, things wouldn’t have turned out this way. You’re my biological mother; how could I not crave my family’s love? But, it seems you still prefer the former Jiang Nanshu over this obstinate version of me."

Mrs. Jiang, nearly swayed by Jiang Nanshu’s words, suddenly snapped awake at her last statement. Yes, indeed...

The person before her was no longer her daughter.
