The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 113 Falling into Water

"Jiang Nanshu, let’s talk." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Before Jiang Nanshu could speak, Su Ran took the initiative.

She stood beside Jiang Nanshu, her gaze calm as if she was catching up with an old friend.

Hearing Jiang Nanshu’s inner thoughts, Jiang Leyi frowned slightly, but she didn’t disturb Jiang Nanshu, lying on a beach chair about five meters away, sipping her drink and resting.

Jiang Nanshu crossed her arms over her chest, her demeanor proud, her eyes filled with disdain, "I think there’s nothing to talk about between us. It’s in your best interest to disappear from my sight, because with me here, you can forget about getting Brother Qingyan."

Pity for Jiang Nanshu showed in Su Ran’s eyes.

Only fools drown in love beyond redemption.

Jiang Nanshu was beyond saving.

There was no point in arguing with a fool, for her world was but a speck.

Su Ran took a deep breath, earnestly saying, "Lu Qingyan is already engaged to you, what are you still unsure about? Why must you embarrass me every time to satisfy your twisted desire to torment people?"

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

She looked at Su Ran as if she were an idiot, "Make it clear, how am I twisted? How have I tortured anyone?"

Her twisted methods hadn’t even come to light yet, just seeing her with a mourning face as if everyone owed her money.

She, being the protagonist of the book, Jiang Nanshu knew she couldn’t compete with her plot line or her protagonist’s halo.

It was fine; being the evil supporting character, all she had to do was commit bad deeds.

Su Ran turned her head, scoffing coldly, "You know exactly what you’ve done. I don’t know what delusion made you think I’m a pushover to be manipulated, Jiang Nanshu. I climbed up from the very bottom as well; I can see through your intentions in a glance."

She was no naive and silly sweet girl.

"Hah, have you guessed how you’re going to end up in the water later?" Jiang Nanshu’s eyes narrowed.

It’s no wonder it was such a melodramatic story, the protagonist’s intelligence was worrisome.

[Knowing full well that I’m the villain yet you still provoke me, how can I not deal with you?]

Jiang Leyi’s gaze shifted their way, but being too far to overhear she could only see Jiang Nanshu and Su Ran speaking in low voices.

Evil supporting character?

Jiang Nanshu mentioned the term "plotline" many times.

It felt surreal to her, as if they were acting out a TV drama...

As if the script of their lives was predesigned.

After Jiang Nanshu said this, Su Ran wore an ’as expected’ expression on her face; she knew Jiang Nanshu harbored ill will towards her.

Disappointed, she said, "I thought the least one could have is some kindness, but clearly you lack it. I had hoped we could be friends without being so confrontational."

Jiang Nanshu: "... Are you listening to yourself? You’re trying to steal my fiancé and yet you want to be friends with me? What do you think? Just because I’m not angry, you take me for a fool?!"

"Fully aware of the kind of person I am, yet you eagerly make advances -- isn’t that asking for trouble? Su Ran, or is it that you’re waiting for Lu Qingyan to arrive, hoping he’ll see me push you into the water and rescue you, slapping me in the process?"

Su Ran’s expression turned icy as she glared at Jiang Nanshu, "Don’t use your vile mindset to speculate about me. You and I are different; if you think pushing me into the water will satisfy your revenge, it’ll only make Lu Qingyan despise you more. I’ve known him for many years, to be honest, I understand him better than you do."

Su Ran didn’t want to draw on her relationship with Lu Qingyan.

But Jiang Nanshu had gone too far.

Daring to threaten her today meant she was capable of murder tomorrow.

She had to get Jiang Nanshu to drop her hostility; otherwise, it would affect her own life.

[Jesus, so much bullshit.]

Just then, Lu Qingyan and Jiang Jingcheng walked in.

He scanned the room, his brow furrowing slightly at the sight of Jiang Nanshu and Su Ran standing together, and began walking in their direction.

Jiang Hemian’s eyes curved, "I bet Nannan will kick her into the water. What do you think?"

Jiang Zhouye: "... Probably not, with Lu Qingyan here. She might be a bit more cautious."

Jiang Yunchuan pursed his lips, looking speechless, "Third brother, why are you so excited?"

"The pursuit of thrills, you wouldn’t understand."

Jiang Hemian’s eyes were full of amusement, his little sister was as intriguing as his experiments.

He really wanted to take her to the lab with him.

Lying down on a beach chair nearby, Jiang Jingcheng said, "Just remember to get in the water and save someone later, don’t let it turn fatal."

Jiang Yunchuan: "..."

The four of them lay side by side on beach chairs.

Their gazes unanimously sneaking peeks in Jiang Nanshu’s direction.

As Lu Qingyan approached,

Jiang Nanshu scoffed disdainfully, "Well, you try and see if he’ll hate me even more."

[Speaking straight to my heart, who needs his liking, let’s go!]

Jiang Nanshu took advantage of Su Ran’s slow reaction and kicked her right in.

"Ah!"

The scream was drowned out by the pool water.

Jiang Nanshu also pretended to slip and got dragged down.

"Ah! Help!"

[Ah, gurgle gurgle, how did it go swimming again... gurgle gurgle...]

The accident happened in an instant.

Jiang Hemian wore an "I knew it" expression, "See, I guessed it, she kicked. Hmm, her temper is like mine, she should go to my lab."

Jiang Yunchuan: "... What time is it to still argue over this, hurry up and save someone!"

"Ranran!" Cheng An, who had just bought water and returned, saw this scene and couldn’t even care about the water.

Because Su Ran had already sunk.

He hurriedly jumped in, but Lu Qingyan had already dived in before him.

Jiang Zhouye tossed the towel onto the beach chair, "What a hassle."

He also jumped in after.

Jiang Yunchuan was extremely worried, "Nannan can’t swim, what should we do? It must have been Su Ran who dragged her down just now!"

Jiang Hemian laughed, "Didn’t you see the sister kicked first?"

Jiang Yunchuan stiffened, remembering the vow he had made, no matter how bad Jiang Nanshu was, he wouldn’t blame her.

Although it did seem a bit like abetting tyranny.

He uncomfortably turned his head away, "I’ve gone blind lately from gaming; I didn’t see anything..."

Jiang Leyi walked up behind him, with a cold face, she kicked his back, "What are you muttering about here for, go save someone already."

After Jiang Yunchuan fell in, Jiang Leyi took her seat elegantly.

Underwater

Jiang Nanshu opened her eyes in the water and looked up.

After Su Ran fell in, several people came down to fish for her, like dumplings being dropped.

[It’s really different for someone with the protagonist’s aura. ]

Balancing herself in the water, Jiang Nanshu then remembered Duan Huaiyu’s teachings and swam far away from them.

She’d just find a chance to float up later.

The original book only mentioned she nearly drowned, not that she actually died.

She swam underwater, doing breaststroke, freestyle, and doggy paddle.

Holding her breath, when it seemed about right, she confidently swam upwards, by which time Su Ran had already been rescued.

Her head had just emerged, barely getting a chance to take a breath, when a large hand pressed her back into the water.
