Chapter 44 -44 After all, different professions feel as distant as different mountains, this is hard to evaluate!
Lu Qingyan’s furrowed brow suddenly relaxed when he heard this inner voice; he turned his head and saw Jiang Nanshu looking at him with an irritated face.
Seeing him look over, her expression instantly changed, her eyes filling with anger and grievance. “Brother Qingyan, what are you doing here with Sister Su Ran?”
[Isn’t it still daytime? If you two want to do something, can’t you wait until nightfall? Don’t you know to hide a bit, and now you let me see this, do I have to be this miserable?]
Lu Qingyan: “?”
What to do? What exactly?
After being stunned for quite a while, he finally realized what was being implied and a trace of annoyance crossed his stunningly cold face. What was this woman thinking about all day?
He shifted his gaze away, ultimately explaining with a single word: “Coincidence.”
This time, Jiang Nanshu didn’t cling to Lu Qingyan but turned towards Su Ran, her head held high and haughty, “Su Ran, are you deliberately trying to flaunt yourself in front of him? We haven’t even called off our engagement yet, and you’re so eager?”
[Ha, do I look stupid? You two ‘coincidentally’ meet every day? Since her return to the country, hasn’t there been a day you haven’t seen her? From watching dances, to bar meetups, to Mingde Middle School, you’re quite the actor.]
Su Ran was not someone to be trifled with. Stung by Jiang Nanshu’s words, she sneered, “Since whatever I say is useless, then as you’ve said, I will chase him back.”
As she spoke, her gaze intensely fixed on Lu Qingyan. Even though it sounded like a retort, Jiang Nanshu knew that these were indeed her true feelings.
Why else would she return to the country if she no longer liked Lu Qingyan? She could have developed her career abroad. Every time she mentioned not having feelings for Lu Qingyan in front of her was actually her forcing herself not to show her love too obviously.
After all, she was the one who had abandoned Lu Qingyan years ago. Could she really mend the broken mirror by returning?
In the original book, after the male lead broke off the engagement, Su Ran often ‘coincidentally’ met with Lu Qingyan. This involved some deliberate actions on her part as she wanted Lu Qingyan to remember her again, seducing step by step, leading him into entanglement while also causing recurrent pain due to a misunderstanding three years ago.
She wanted to start again with a grand gesture, but after being coldly rejected by the male lead, with the female rival’s jealousy leading to sabotage through drugging, an accidental entanglement resumes between them. But now, the one suffering turned out to be the male lead who couldn’t let her go.
Jiang Nanshu assessed the plotline, noting that the drugging scene hadn’t arrived yet; however, the female lead’s character setting was more than a little skewed.
Was it because of the unresolved breakup bug that made her so impatient?
She glanced at Lu Qingyan, even as Su Ran uttered such words, his expression did not change at all, truly… hard to conquer. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Jiang Nanshu didn’t know how important Su Ran was in Lu Qingyan’s heart, but she couldn’t let go of the opportunity to increase the Disgust Value, could she?
She couldn’t help but laugh out loud, Jiang Nanshu looked beautiful as she laughed, her brightness like the beaming sun, making the red mole by her eye even more enchanting, but her gaze held no trace of laughter as she wrapped an arm around Lu Qingyan’s arm, “Su Ran, do you want to be the other woman? Your mother had a child out of wedlock, do you want to follow in her footsteps?”
Su Ran’s mother was a sore spot for her.
The heroine’s life, after all, couldn’t be too perfect; there are always flaws, and her mother was an absolutely taboo subject. This wasn’t a secret; those who knew Su Ran were aware that she came from a single-parent family with an unknown biological father, and the original body had dug deep into her background as soon as they knew of Su Ran’s existence.
Su Ran trembled with rage, Jiang Nanshu laughed audaciously, trampling on others’ pain. She desperately wanted to tear her apart but she couldn’t, not just yet.
Because there was a quicker way to plunge the deeply in love Jiang Nanshu into the abyss of agony.
She turned to look at Lu Qingyan, her knuckles white as they clenched by her side; tears rimming her eyes, “Are you just going to watch your fiancée humiliate me? Humiliate my mother? Lu Qingyan… you weren’t like this before…”
[After all these years, you still expect him to be the same? How could that be possible? But you can definitely do it.]
She looked up, observing Lu Qingyan’s tightly clenched jaw, smiling faintly, “Brother Qingyan, am I wrong? Our engagement is still on, isn’t she knowingly playing the third party?”
