The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 179 I’m Super Good at Making a Scene!
Chapter 179: Chapter 179 I’m Super Good at Making a Scene!
Jiang Zhouye slightly furrowed his brows, he had checked on Lian Xingze, who had replaced him as the lead singer. Behind him was just an ordinary company, nowhere near as terrifying as Jiang Nanshu had described.
Either the power behind him was truly immense and hid this fact from him,
Jiang Zhouye felt a tingling on his scalp, it must have been an immense power to achieve this.
Since he was distracted, he didn’t hear what Su Jianlin whispered to him.
Not until he nudged his arm did Jiang Zhouye snap back to reality, his gaze focused as he looked at Su Jianlin and blinked, "What’s up?"
Su Jianlin’s brows were deeply furrowed, "Brother Zhou, what’s wrong with you? You’ve been out of it since you got back."
"It’s nothing... What did you just say?"
Su Jianlin cleared his throat, "How come you’ve never brought out such a beautiful sister before?"
Jiang Zhouye glanced at Jiang Nanshu who was a step behind him and replied softly, "We didn’t get along well before."
"What?"
He looked at the formidable-looking Jiang Zhouye and the meek-faced Jiang Nanshu.
It seemed like Jiang Zhouye was the one causing issues, leading to a strained relationship with his sister.
While seemingly idly minding her own business, Jiang Nanshu, who was closely listening to their conversation, "..."
She quietly rolled her eyes.
"[It sounds like we’re on good terms now, but you’re just a money tree to me, nothing more!]"
Jiang Zhouye gritted his teeth, he was really fed up, how could such words be so infuriating!
He said with a suppressed anger, "Don’t even think about it, she’s already betrothed."
Su Jianlin was dumbfounded, "Ah?" he stopped himself mid-sentence, "I didn’t mean that, bro... I was just complimenting our sister..."
Noticing Jiang Zhouye’s warning look, he quickly changed his tune, "Your sister is beautiful."
How frustrating!
He wished he had a sister like Jiang Nanshu who looked as pretty and delicate as a porcelain doll, so gentle and pliable! freeweɓnovel.cøm
He couldn’t help but look back at Jiang Nanshu.
He caught her gaze exactly.
Jiang Nanshu gave him a big smile.
Su Jianlin quickly turned back, his heart pounding.
Damn it! Having a bad relationship with such a sister, he suggested to himself to look for reasons by slapping himself.
But... why did her face look somewhat familiar?
Su Jianlin felt like he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn’t remember.
"Zhou Ye, over here," a laughing male voice came from a distance.
Jiang Zhouye looked up, the man was only 1.7 meters tall even with 5 cm shoes, had a rather feminine face, and because he wore no makeup, his face showed not only sweat but also some acne scars.
Overall, he was much less impressive than Jiang Zhouye, not even comparable to Su Jianlin.
Su Jianlin waved happily, "Brother Yi."
Jiang Nanshu raised her eyebrows slightly.
"[Oh, so that’s Fang Yi. I thought everyone in this world was supposed to be handsome, surprise to see there are also unattractive ones, how did he even make it into this handsome boy band?]"
Jiang Zhouye: "..."
How did he make it...
By sticking with him, of course. Fang Yi had been cozying up to him even before the band was formed, providing care and warmth, and the production team coupled them as brothers to stir up the buzz. Initially, Jiang Zhouye disliked it, but Fang Yi’s hard work and sincerity gradually earned his acceptance. If it was a livestream or they were traveling, he would always bring him along.
His own fans, by association, started to support Fang Yi too. His pictures online had filters, so he also gained quite a following among fans of his looks.
He turned around and took an unopened face mask from the assistant accompanying him, tearing it open and putting it directly on Jiang Nanshu’s face.
"Keep it on inside, fans will be taking photos."
Feeling uneasy, he reached out again.
A female assistant nearby immediately understood and handed over a white cap.
Jiang Zhouye placed it firmly on her head and said earnestly, "The entertainment industry is complicated, people who like me really like me, and those who blacken me could curse my entire family; I don’t want you exposed and caught up in the public opinion, so stay away from me when the time comes."
"My assistant will bring you to me tonight."
Jiang Nanshu: "..."
[Didn’t Su Jianlin just see her! What’s the use of covering up now!]
Jiang Zhouye pursed his lips, at that moment, he simply didn’t want Fang Yi to see Jiang Nanshu’s face.
He straightened up, placed his hand on Jiang Nanshu’s head, and his voice carried a hint of laughter: "Never mind, it’s too risky for you to go in there; just go rest in the room I’ve arranged for you."
At first, Jiang Nanshu had wanted to see what Lian Xingze looked like.
Seeing Jiang Zhouye act this way, she was speechless for a moment and then, narrowing her eyes, began to make unreasonable demands, "Brother Zhou, do you think I’m an embarrassment, not worthy to stand beside you? You don’t want to introduce me to your friends, how am I supposed to mix in the entertainment industry? Boo hoo, I’m not afraid of being exposed at all, I like having people pay attention to me."
[I’m super good at throwing tantrums!]
Jiang Zhouye: "..."
"I’ll introduce you to them after I take care of things here."
Seeing Fang Yi approaching.
The female assistant took the cue and walked away with Jiang Nanshu, "Miss Jiang, listen to him, your brother won’t harm you."
"..."
[That’s right, I’m the only one who can harm him, but I’ll see him when the time comes anyway.]
So she obediently followed the female assistant.
"Zhou Ye, who is the girl that just left?" Fang Yi walked up.
He wanted to put his arm around Jiang Zhouye’s shoulder, but Jiang Zhouye’s height of 185 cm made even lifting his shoulder tiring.
So he gave up and just stood beside him, thoughtfully watching Jiang Nanshu’s back.
"She’s my sister, who came with me to the concert," Jiang Zhouye moved forward.
Fang Yi stepped up to follow behind him.
Humiliation flashed through his eyes.
Every time he got close to Jiang Zhouye, he felt disgusted, like a dog trying to please its master.
He calmed his emotions, slightly curving his lips, by the end of tonight Jiang Zhouye should be out anyway, a useless person who can’t even sing anymore.
Fang Yi spoke cheerily, "I haven’t heard about you having a sister before. How many siblings do you have?"
Jiang Zhouye really didn’t want to chat with him, so he responded in a hoarse, cold tone, "My family is not well-off, and I have many siblings; the whole family depends on me. I need to ask my manager when I can start working again."
Hearing his tone, Fang Yi’s eyes sparkled with excitement mixed with contempt.
Thinking of taking on jobs to earn money now? Go eat shit!
They say his home is deep in the mountains; he should just keep rolling back there.
Su Jianlin, however, felt somewhat sympathetic, "Ah, Brother Zhou, it’ll get better. I don’t know what the manager is doing; he should be here soon. We’ll all speak up for you, especially since you were so popular before your vocal injury occurred."
"The enthusiasm of the fans has dwindled a lot because you weren’t around,"
Fang Yi secretly clenched his teeth, as if the group couldn’t be complete without Jiang Zhouye. He disdainfully curled his lips, licking up to Jiang Zhouye was useless now, better to butter up Lian Xingze, at least he had some solid backing.
Jiang Zhouye, with his good looks, was utterly useless otherwise.
"Actually, the fans aren’t just here for Zhou Ye; many of them are here for Xingze too," Fang Yi chuckled lightly, looking at Jiang Zhouye, "During your absence, along with the company’s promotion, he has gained a huge following, almost becoming the second you."
