Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Security, throw these two people out! Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Security, throw these two people out! Jiang Nanshu quickened her pace toward the Broadcasting Department, the opposite direction of the Finance Department.
“Don’t let any male or female protagonists stop me from being the top student. I must crush the female protagonist and make her feel inferior.”
Da Shachun: “…As long as you’re happy.”
When Jiang Nanshu reached the classroom, more than half of the second period had passed.
The teacher called her in, and under the influence of some nefarious power, she was marked present again…
Jiang Nanshu walked to her usual seat, where someone was already sitting.
It was Xu Xingwan.
The morning sunlight hit her side face, softening her features.
Jiang Nanshu placed her books on the desk and sat down, gently catching her breath. There was still half the time left before class ended.
Jiang Nanshu opened the book “The Art of Hosting.”
Her major included not only journalism but also hosting, host thinking, Mandarin training, and physical education class later that morning.
The physical education in the Broadcasting Department was equivalent to taking body movement classes and also included dance studies such as ballet, modern dance, and folk dance.
Jiang Nanshu had never attended because every time this class was scheduled, many problems would arise on her side, leading her to skip it.
The original owner of her body used to openly skip these classes to meet Lu Qingyan.
So far, she even didn’t know where the sports field was.
The teacher spoke at the podium, and Jiang Nanshu took notes seriously.
She wasn’t the type to slack off. Once she committed to something, she put a lot of effort into completing it. Having promised Da Shachun to crush the female protagonist, she would approach it from all angles, leaving no chance for others!
Jiang Nanshu’s eyelashes were lowered, her gaze shuttling between the blackboard and her book, her pen scribbling notes swiftly.
Xu Xingwan glanced sideways at her.
Jiang Nanshu’s handwriting was beautiful, different from the soft writing typical of girls, leaning more toward a slightly sharp style.
“Xixi is getting discharged this afternoon. She told me that you saved her. I want to thank you for protecting her,” Xu Xingwan spoke up.
It was the first time her impression of Jiang Nanshu changed.
“Okay, then what?” Jiang Nanshu glanced at her, with a smirk. “Actually, the root cause of this incident lies with you because you couldn’t clear things up with Bao Yan, leading He Lianzhi to lash out at your friend in frustration.”
In the end, Jiang Nanshu lamented, “Alas, when a boss makes a move, heartbreak follows!”
Xu Xingwan: “…”
Hearing Bao Yan’s name, her eyes grew colder: “He Lianzhi has been expelled by Jing University. Now, under the pressure from the Bao Family and Jiang Family, He Family’s company has nearly collapsed in just a few days.”
“Jiang Family? My elder brother?” Jiang Nanshu hadn’t been following He Lianzhi’s matter.
Xu Xingwan nodded, her gaze complex as she looked at her. “I think the rumors are wrong, your family doesn’t despise you. He bought a large part of He Family’s shares, saying you were bullied and he wanted to make you happy.”
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
Hmm?
Jiang Yisen would target He Family because of her?
What did she do to deserve this!
Luckily, she wasn’t the type to overthink. She immediately waved it off, “It’s not all because of me. Who benefits the most if He Family collapses?”
Xu Xingwan thought hard and then her eyes widened: “Bao Family?”
Jiang Nanshu squinted and smiled: “Right, the Bao Family. And my brother and Bao Yan are archenemies. It’s like if a dog passes by their companies at the same time, they would even fight over who the dog belongs to. It’s all about interests. He Family relied on the Bao Family to thrive, without this protection, aren’t they just a toothless tiger, no different from a cat? Both families would then fight bloody battles.”
Xu Xingwan stared at her, stunned.
This Jiang Family heir, notorious for being harmful and worthless.
If someone else had discovered their own relative had forcefully shut down a company for them, they might have wanted the whole world to know how cherished they were at home.
But Jiang Nanshu was rational and clear-headed, outlining the advantages and disadvantages of the situation.
Xu Xingwan took a deep breath. “This matter has nothing to do with me. I’ve already made it clear to Bao Yan. As long as he doesn’t provoke me again, that’s fine.”
Jiang Nanshu just smiled and refrained from giving her thoughts on the subject.
The book’s portrayal of Bao Yan, the obsessive antagonist, was quite deep.
He was the type of person who wouldn’t stop until he achieved his goals.
Xu Xingwan was currently resembling a fierce cat, but in the end, she fell in love with her foster brother and was content to be caged like a bird.
The emotions involved couldn’t be easily clarified in just a few words.
“Good luck then.”
After saying this, Jiang Nanshu focused earnestly on the lecture.
Seeing her serious demeanor, Xu Xingwan felt some words too harsh to say that might crush her spirit.
Coincidentally, they had attended the same high school.
Naturally, Xu knew about her abysmal grades.
Her math was so poor that blindly guessing could only score her three points.
Sometimes, succeeding in studies also depends on talent; mere effort isn’t very fruitful without it.
Until the class ended, Jiang Nanshu didn’t speak to her again.
As people gradually left the classroom, Xu Xingwan waited for Jiang Nanshu and suggested, “Shall we go to the indoor gym together?”
Jiang Nanshu nodded, “Sure, it’s my first time, and I’m a bit unfamiliar with it.”
Xu Xingwan: “…It’s been almost a month since the semester started, you haven’t been there even once, you’ve missed a lot of classes; today they are teaching ballet, can you dance?”
Ballet…
Indeed, she could!
She had trained from the age of eight to fifteen, for seven years.
But after setting the fire that killed her parents, she never danced again.
Back when she was young, driven by a curiosity, she endeavored to learn many things only to earn a single tender compliment from him, and to be his pride.
Jiang Nanshu did not respond to her but changed the subject: “Let’s go, or we might be late.”
Xu Xingwan thought about Jiang Nanshu’s background.
Though a true-born daughter, she was raised in the countryside.
There were no such training classes in the countryside, so she didn’t know anything about these arts.
Sighing internally, Xu decided not to uncover her scars.
Together, they reached the indoor sports facility.
Upon approaching the entrance, cheers and shouts echoed from inside.
“Ah, Su Ran! Goddess, I love you!”
“She’s incredible, is there anything Ranran can’t do? How can she dance so beautifully? The Lu Family Crown Prince is lucky.”
“Look, the Lu Family Crown Prince can’t take his eyes off her…”
The indoor sports facility was vast, featuring a basketball area and half of it designated for the broadcasting and dance students to practice.
Playing basketball while watching the young ladies dance was a truly delightful experience.
Following the crowd’s exclamations, Jiang Nanshu once again saw Lu Qingyan and Su Ran.
Lu Qingyan was playing basketball with Yang Jiashu and Jiang Yunchuan. Hearing the surrounding chatter, he remained expressionless and, of course, did not look at Su Ran.
Meanwhile, Su Ran, in a white dress, was dancing in the spacious area, clearly ruling the stage all by herself.
Jiang Nanshu’s expression then resembled that of an old man checking his phone on the subway.
Really?
She had to bump into them even during a PE class?
[Help! Security, get these two out! Do I really have to endure this rotten plotline!]
