The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 183 Cheng An Awakens

Jiang Jingcheng’s brows lifted slightly, "So he’s just spouting nonsense?"

Jiang Nanshu nodded, feigning a sigh, "Of course, it’s all my fault for reacting violently and causing his condition. In his dreams, he probably wishes I would just die. I’ve lost a friendship that hadn’t even begun yet; my heart truly aches."

[Curse me to die? I’ll kill him first! Damn it, even if I do die, I’ll be the last in line. That’s the place for a vicious supporting female character like me, a hundred times better than all the cannon fodder in the Jiang Family!]

Jiang Jingcheng: "..."

Well, how should I put it?

In the end, we all die, so what difference does it make if it’s sooner or later?

If they didn’t know about the ’plot’ inside Jiang Nanshu’s heart, they might have just gone through the motions, but now who dies first is unpredictable.

With them around, they wouldn’t let Jiang Nanshu die.

Jiang Nanshu sniffled pitifully, "We’re already at the hospital, I should go see him, right? But I didn’t bring any gifts, would that be impolite?"

Jiang Jingcheng responded indifferently, "Don’t worry, the Cheng family isn’t lacking a few fruit baskets."

The two had just exited the orthopedic ward’s elevator when a man with tears streaming down his face ran towards them, carrying a fruit basket, which he angrily tossed into a corner.

"Waaaah! I’ve been cuckolded. My girlfriend’s child is someone else’s. Am I the only one in the world so miserable?" The man yelled, furiously pressing the elevator button for the lower floors and, seeing that the number wasn’t changing, he stomped his foot and sobbed as he ran down the stairs.

This seamless sequence of events lasted only about ten seconds.

[Has the heavens heard my plea? Sending me a fruit basket so conveniently, and it’s even a cuckold’s fruit basket, heh.]

Jiang Nanshu jogged over to pick it up. The basket wasn’t damaged, and the fruit was still good. She picked it up, her expression disapproving, "Waste is shameful."

"Brother, shall we give the fruit basket to Cheng An? I hope he can forgive me."

[I want to pass on the cuckold attribute to him too; just wait until the day he finds out his beloved goddess is carrying someone else’s child, then I’ll watch him cry.]

Jiang Jingcheng: "...Okay."

They approached the door of the hospital room. It was a private VIP ward with only Cheng An inside as a patient. He had just woken up, still looking somewhat pale, with Madam Cheng sitting next to him, fussing over him with concern. He, however, listened with furrowed brows and evident impatience.

Hearing the noise at the door, he turned his face and, upon seeing Jiang Nanshu, his eyes filled with hostility and anger, his voice tinged with fury, "Jiang Nanshu, you dare to come!"

Madam Cheng stood up sharply, shielding her son protectively, though a large part of this situation was caused by her own son’s doing. But was Jiang Nanshu hitting someone not wrong as well?

The medical expenses were entirely paid by the Cheng family, their son was injured and hadn’t gained any advantage from it; it was infuriating!

The Jiang Family had settled the issue quietly, without even offering any compensation as a gesture. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Jiang Nanshu took refuge behind Jiang Jingcheng, only half of her body showing, her fair hand nervously clutching the fruit basket, her eyes filled with guilt, "I heard you had woken up, and I specifically came to visit you. I didn’t expect that I would be so strong when frightened; to have hurt you this severely, I’ve been restless these nights because of this incident." She paused and blinked, "How is your leg? Can you stand up?"

Hearing the word "leg," the corners of Cheng An’s eyes turned bloodshot.

The hospital had told them to prepare for the worst— even if he recovered, he would become a cripple, and he would no longer be able to engage in strenuous activities because the knife had damaged the soft tissue in his knee. There was only a ten percent chance of a full recovery.

"Get out, I don’t want your fake pity here. You, Jiang Nanshu, you’ve ruined my life."

Cheng An roared out loud, Madam Cheng felt heartbroken; even if she caused trouble for Su Ran time and time again, it was all in vain. Everything was because of her son’s unrequited love, but the person who truly hurt him was Jiang Nanshu. Her heart flared up with anger along with him.

Jiang Jingcheng’s gaze was indifferent, his voice calmly stating the facts, "If Young Master Cheng had thought more about the consequences before acting, perhaps he wouldn’t be lying in bed now, but would be serving time in prison instead."

Cheng An clenched his hand into a fist on the blanket.

Jiang Nanshu gave a light cough, his look feigning an apology, "Cheng An, let me tell you some good news, I’m with Brother Qingyan now. You can go after Su Ran, at least fulfilling that love in your heart."

Madam Cheng suddenly raised her voice, "If you dare see that bitch again, I’ll have someone kill her!"

Cheng An’s complexion turned ugly, his lips pressed tightly, clearly unwilling to heed discipline.

Jiang Nanshu was so scared that she completely hid behind Jiang Jingcheng.

Her voice coquettish, "Scared, scared, big brother, they’re so fierce."

[Ha ha ha, impotent rage. Even without Lu Qingyan, Su Ran wouldn’t choose such a good-for-nothing like him. After leaving the hospital, you’ll still need to remain a loyal dog.]

Cheng An set his gaze on Jiang Jingcheng, as if he thought of something, looking at him maliciously and finally sneering, "I don’t want Jiang Jingcheng as my attending doctor, I’m afraid he’ll treat me to death."

Madam Cheng’s face stiffened. Although she disliked Jiang Nanshu, there was no need to offend the entire Jiang Family, right?

The Cheng family still had project collaborations with the Jiang Family.

Pretending to be angry, "What nonsense are you saying, my boy? I specially requested the director to bring him here. With him, that ten percent chance of success for your leg is guaranteed."

After all, Jiang Jingcheng’s reputation as a "medical miracle worker" was renowned far and wide. Since he had joined the hospital, there hadn’t been a single surgery under his hands that had failed.

Cheng An stubbornly insisted, "I don’t want him! He is Jiang Nanshu’s elder brother, he surely won’t treat me properly. I want to change doctors!"

During the days he was unconscious, he seemed to have dreamt of past and present lives, especially since he knew everyone’s fate!

In the dream, Jiang Jingcheng would contract a virus, his body festering all over, eventually admitted into the ICU, until the Jiang Family went bankrupt. Without medical funds to sustain his life, his ventilator would be unplugged, and he would die on the hospital bed.

And Jiang Nanshu, due to her malicious and reckless behavior, would frame Su Ran, finally having evidence of her crimes collected and be sent to prison, where she would die by suicide.

He didn’t know whether this could be considered as even the heavens not being able to bear looks at Jiang Nanshu’s wickedness, giving him the ability to know their fates.

They could all go to hell!

He definitely would not let them know of their tragic future.

Thinking this way, the malevolence in his eyes could not be hidden, "If you insist on letting him treat me, then I’ll switch hospitals! Even if I end up lame, I don’t want him!"

He was afraid of being infected by this virus carrier!

He certainly did not want to be sent to the ICU because of him.

Jiang Jingcheng wasn’t angry, his lips breaking into a rare smile, "Good, I will hand over your medical chart to the doctor who takes over. I wish you a swift recovery."

He glanced sideways, "Nannan has left. They don’t accept apologies. Leave the fruit basket, considering it’s the least we can do."

Jiang Nanshu obediently nodded, placing the fruit basket on the table beside them.

[Big brother is quite mean too, giving Cheng An the cuckold’s fruit basket, ha ha ha. Is this the right way to use the term ’fulfilling all righteousness’?]
