Chapter 49: Chapter 49: A Bad Guy Needs a Bad Guy to Hone Them Chapter 49: Chapter 49: A Bad Guy Needs a Bad Guy to Hone Them Although I really didn’t want to do it,
but without doing so, Jiang Nanshu will never learn her lesson.
The two lay down again, never having felt the night could be so unbearable.
The next day.
Jiang Nanshu got out of bed feeling refreshed.
When she went downstairs for breakfast, she found that the family members were not around. After asking a servant, she learned that they had gone out early in the morning.
Although she found it strange, their absence made it more convenient for her to go about her business.
Jiang Zhouye came downstairs with a cold expression.
Jiang Nanshu looked at him with a smile, “Big brother Zhou Ye, good morning.”
Jiang Zhouye turned his head away, “Hypocrite.”
He placed his cup on the table and quietly ate his breakfast.
Then after going upstairs, a servant came to her with a cup, looking troubled.
“Miss Nanshu, could you please take a cup of water to Master Zhou Ye? I haven’t finished my tasks yet.”
Jiang Nanshu looked at the bucket beside her feet and smiled, “Give me the cup.”
“Thank you, Miss Nanshu.”
After the servant left.
Jiang Nanshu held the water and poured the powder. Unexpectedly, her hand trembled and the whole packet went in.
Several people secretly observing from a dark place: “…”
So cruel.
Jiang Zhouye clenched his fists, wanting to hit someone!
Jiang Nanshu stirred the water and noticed it was a bit cloudy, but didn’t pay too much attention to it, and went directly up the spiral staircase leisurely.
Jiang Zhouye: “…”
What? Is he blind? Wouldn’t he look when drinking water? Or is he just brainless to be that easily harmed?
Could you please make an effort to disguise your poisonings?
Jiang Zhouye realized, at that very moment, he was even pondering over the flaws in Jiang Nanshu’s crime—if it were him, he would be much more discreet…
Pah, what was he thinking! He would never become as immoral as Jiang Nanshu.
Then, he waited in his room.
Jiang Nanshu politely knocked on the door, “Big brother Zhou Ye, I’ve brought water for you.”
Jiang Zhouye opened the door, took the water from Jiang Nanshu, looked down at it, and his temples twitched involuntarily. In the end, he couldn’t bear it, “Why is this water so muddy? What did you do?”
Jiang Nanshu blinked her innocent eyes, “Huh? Muddy? That’s clearly just dust in the air, magnified through the glass.”
Jiang Zhouye: 6.
He said expressionlessly, “You can go now.”
Then, in Jiang Nanshu’s presence, he took a sip and closed the door.
[Do I really believe such an excuse? Is he the reincarnation of a pig demon? No wonder he was harmed and didn’t know who did it, and ended up leaving the industry due to a blown-out scandal. It’s what he deserves.]
Jiang Zhouye on the other side of the door: “…”
He spat out the water he had in his mouth and even rinsed it.
Jiang Zhouye felt numb inside.
So being harmed was just the beginning, huh? Even if he recovers, there’s scandalous material waiting for him?
Who the hell is this person, so bent on not seeing him do well?
And what “scandalous material” does he have? He really wanted to know too.
Jiang Zhouye lay in bed, closed his eyes in peace, and waited for Jiang Nanshu to come and sealed her fate.
It was when he was about to fall asleep that he finally heard noise outside.
“Qianqian, don’t worry, there’s no one at home, and my big brother Zhou Ye is already cleaned up and waiting for you to enjoy.”
“What? Then you must be my sister-in-law, my fourth sister-in-law only acknowledges you.”
“Yeah, go on, I’ll keep watch outside for you.”
Jiang Zhouye: “…”
Talking so loudly over such a short distance? Are you scared they won’t hear you or what?
He tried to calm himself down, these were just minor difficulties, and now he could strike first to make Jiang Nanshu taste her own bitter medicine.
Then he discovered… he couldn’t lift his hand, and he couldn’t move his body at all.
What kind of drug is this, he hadn’t even drunk anything and he was already affected!
Jiang Nanshu opened the door, leading Chen Qian in and pointing to the sleeping Zhouye on the bed, “See, I didn’t trick you.”
Chen Qian carefully examined Zhouye’s rebellious and handsome face, swallowing involuntarily, “Nanshu, with you, I’m truly blessed. Once I’ve succeeded in sleeping with him, I won’t shortchange you, I’ll give you ten thousand as a reward.”
Jiang Nanshu’s eyes curved into a smile, “Okay, ten thousand is really a lot.”
[Ten thousand should be enough to buy you a coffin.]
Just as Zhouye was about to open his eyes: “???”
Uncertain what they meant, he decided to keep playing asleep to listen longer.
Chen Qian pursed her lips impatiently, “Aren’t you going out yet? How am I supposed to get anything done with you here?”
“Right, I’ll be on the lookout at the door.”
[Wait until you get a taste of something even better, hehe.]
Jiang Nanshu closed the door attentively, and only then did Chen Qian, with glinting eyes, start to undress, muttering, “That idiot Jiang Nanshu is really easy to deceive, haha, once I’ve done it, she’ll be the first I cut down, stupid bitch, she messed me up like this.”
Zhouye’s face turned pale.
He thought Jiang Nanshu, for the sake of this friend who had done harm to her family, must have been genuinely good to her, hence her foolish aid.
But in the end, she was just being used!
He really wanted to scream at her to wake up, what kind of wretched company had she been keeping!
“I need to be quick this time; I was too slow last time and botched it.”
So, she started rustling as she began to undress.
Zhouye gritted his teeth, waiting for Mr. and Mrs. Jiang to come rescue him.
“Hey, you can’t go in there, Qianqian is still inside,” sounded Jiang Nanshu’s alarmed voice from outside.
Zhouye breathed a sigh of relief, his family had arrived.
The door was forcefully pushed open, Chen Qian quickly put on her jacket, and her eyes widened in fear upon seeing who it was, “Dad… Dad? How… ah!”
“You ungrateful little whore, enjoying yourself so much? Coming to the Jiang Family to steal a man? You think just with that you can go from a sparrow to a phoenix?” Mr. Chen, red-eyed with ferocity, yanked Chen Qian’s hair, dragging her outside, “I’ll discipline you properly on behalf of your dead mother, you indecent little beast!”
“Ah! It hurts.” Chen Qian’s scalp ached as she was pulled along by Mr. Chen, tears in her eyes as she sobbed, “Jiang Nanshu, save me! Ah! Save me.”
Jiang Nanshu subtly glanced at where Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were hiding, a cold smile curling on her lips.
So they knew from the beginning what she was planning?
And they were here waiting for her, no wonder they all acted strange yesterday, asking her whether she was troubled, all sighing heavily.
If they had been clear, perhaps she could have had them act out a scene with her, because she was afraid Zhouye wouldn’t cooperate, but they hadn’t said a word, just waiting to catch her.
Jiang Nanshu pretended not to see and continued walking downstairs.
[How could I possibly let Chen Qian succeed with my fourth brother, if she did cling to him, killing her would become tricky.]
Her target this time was Chen Qian.
And racking up the Disgust Value was just a bonus.
But since they all knew, she might as well play along with the mistake.
Pretend she was the one who drugged him, but Mr. Chen arrived in time to stop Chen Qian’s vile hand from reaching Zhouye.
Both she and Chen Qian were the criminals.
Jiang Nanshu then leisurely followed, shouting at the top of her lungs, “Uncle Chen, don’t beat Qianqian, this was all my idea, it has nothing to do with Qianqian.”
[Yeah, I hope by the time I come out, I’ll see you’ve beaten her to death, bad people should grind away at each other.]
The entire eavesdropping family: “…”
