The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 212 Conflict

Because of Shang Xu, Mrs. Ji couldn’t refuse and could only hold him.

Jiang Nanshu had been observing the back seat the entire time.

She had to admire, this little guy was astute and sensitive.

It was hard to imagine that he was a young master raised in a wealthy family, not spoiled or domineering, but understanding and considerate of the people around him.

Seeing Shang Xu had fallen asleep.

Lu Qingyan finally spoke, "Xiao Xu has been growing up with the Lu Family since he was a one-year-old, he was brought to stay by my mother’s side."

Thinking of Lu Mother.

Jiang Nanshu hissed softly.

"Your mom really is crazy, I’ve never seen anyone as mad as her, it must have been so tough for you and Shang Xu to live with her, could it be that Shang Xu is also in the running to be the male lead?"

As for Jiang Nanshu’s inner thoughts, he neither affirmed nor denied them.

Lu Mother was indeed a madwoman, a neurotic with a strong desire for possession and control.

The unhappy marriage and her family’s brainwashing had turned her into this kind of person, if she wasn’t happy, then no one else was allowed to be.

A cold light flashed across Lu Qingyan’s eyes, "But in fact, I was the one who raised Xiao Xu from childhood, he is quite affectionate towards me. When he was just four years old, he was sent back to the Shang Family’s home, and I thought he would go to kindergarten, but he ended up locked up in a villa to study."

"What about Xuxu’s mom? Where is she?"

"The most miserable time in my childhood was when I got beaten by my parents and nearly froze to death in the snow. It seems that both he and I are quite lucky. I met Zhou Yanxu, and he has his protective younger uncle."

Jiang Hemian was certain.

Jiang Nanshu had not developed a second personality as Jiang Jingcheng had said.

Instead, her soul had been entirely replaced.

The previous Jiang Nanshu had died.

But this was better. He genuinely didn’t like his former sister.

And the important point for Lu Qingyan was,

She had met Zhou Yanxu at such a young age.

Lu Qingyan glanced at the sleeping Shang Xu through the rearview mirror, "His mother has come to the Shang Family’s villa to pick him up."

"Oh, okay."

Jiang Nanshu thought hard but really couldn’t come up with any plot concerning Shang Xu.

"Huh, I’ve spent quite a bit of time with this little guy, how come there’s no trace of him in the storyline... I think hard, and there seems to be something about a child falling off the roof and dying, the details glossed over, and from that point on, Lu Qingyan starts to build his career. Later, he causes the Shang Family to go bankrupt... No way, the child who fell from the roof is Shang Xu?!"

Lu Qingyan’s driving nearly became unsteady.

Lu Junqin, Shang Xu’s mom, told him she would go back to the Shang Family and take good care of Shang Xu.

She would let him attend school and make friends like a normal child.

Darkness passed fleetingly through his eyes.

He seemed to have overlooked the fact that not only the villa next to the Jiang Family could trap a person, but any other place could do the same. Shang Xu wasn’t being kept in a place without daylight; according to Lu Mother’s educational philosophy, a child should be independent from a young age, and others couldn’t help him, or else it would be harmful to him.

If, in a situation without supervision,

Shang Xu climbed to the roof out of fear and accidentally fell to his death, it didn’t seem like an impossibility.

Having gone through such pain.

Lu Qingyan certainly did not want Shang Xu to follow in his footsteps.

Psychological trauma required a lifetime to heal.

Three hours later

The car safely arrived at Beijing People’s Hospital.

Jiang Nanshu had informed Jiang Jingcheng in advance about Mrs. Ji’s condition.

So as soon as she arrived, she had already prepared a separate ward for her.

What followed was a series of exams.

When Jiang Jingcheng appeared, behind her was a crying Madam Cheng, her eyes swollen.

"Jingcheng, I beg you, please perform the surgery on my little An, his leg will be finished if he doesn’t have the operation, I’ve asked every hospital, and only you can perform such a high-difficulty surgery."

Jiang Jingcheng’s expression remained unchanged, her usual indifference evident in her voice that carried a coldness that kept others at bay, "Madam Cheng, I’m sorry, if Young Master Cheng hadn’t gone out to play, resulting in his leg being bitten again by a wild beast, there might still have been a chance to heal him. Now there are only two options for him, amputation or death. To restore him to his original condition, I’m afraid even a divine doctor couldn’t manage it."

Madam Cheng felt as if the sky had collapsed.

Her son.

Wasn’t losing a leg akin to taking his life?

Others had said Jiang Jingcheng could do it, so he surely must.

If even he couldn’t save Cheng An, then who could?

Her face turned pale as she looked towards Jiang Nanshu, who had just appeared.

She cried and knelt before Nanshu, "Nanshu, I’m bowing to you, ask your elder brother to operate on my son, what will he do without a leg? I apologize on his behalf for his past rudeness, please forgive him. Because of past grievances, your elder brother is unwilling to save my son, wuu wuu wuu."

Jiang Nanshu took a step back.

[What the heck, Cheng An is going to be disabled? That’s fantastic, he can keep Huang Ruanting company, isn’t she also legless.]

Jiang Nanshu feigned being frightened and shrank into Lu Qingyan’s embrace, "Brother Qingyan, what’s wrong with her?"

Lu Qingyan led Jiang Nanshu aside, "Madam Cheng, please respect yourself. Doctor Jiang is a compassionate healer and definitely would not neglect a life over baseless grudges. As a doctor, he also wouldn’t pick on a patient over Nannan’s affairs. If he says it’s impossible, then it truly is, rather than wasting time on him, you should seek out other famed doctors."

Jiang Nanshu nodded, "Right, right, I’ve already forgiven Brother Cheng An. I even specially brought him a fruit basket last time, but maybe he doesn’t like me, so he didn’t accept it. Aunt Cheng, there must be doctors in the world even more skilled than my elder brother, he has limited abilities."

[Still want to fix his leg? Wishful thinking! I wonder if you would leave Su Ran alone if Cheng An’s leg was really gone. Such an implausible turn of events, unthinkable.]

The original book certainly didn’t have anything about Cheng An’s disability. freēnovelkiss.com

Madam Cheng sat on the ground as if her soul had departed, muttering, "Impossible, how could this be, how could my son need an amputation, he said Su Ran was his lucky goddess, why bring such harm to him, wuu wuu wuu."

Not knowing what she thought of,

Madam Cheng rushed crazily toward the ward behind.

A woman’s sharp cries of pain sounded.

Su Ran was dragged into the corridor by Madam Cheng, who had grabbed her hair.

But Su Ran’s face was covered with a mask, and with her hair disheveled, no one recognized her as the officially announced leading actress of "Luanying."

Madam Cheng cursed, "You broom star, calamity star, it’s all your fault my son ended up like this, why did you have to send him camping, you wretched woman, don’t think I don’t know what you’re after, always looking elsewhere while eating from your own bowl, why don’t you die! No wonder the Lu Family Crown Prince despises you, someone like you who is everywhere and of loose morals should go to hell, give me back my son’s leg, wuu wuu wuu."

Liang Ciqiu rushed over and knocked Madam Cheng to the ground.

Wearing high heels, Madam Cheng lost her balance, her head hitting the ground with force, her body twitching.

With a stern face, Liang Ciqiu pulled the weeping Su Ran, her face covered in scratch marks, away from the scene.

Beneath Madam Cheng, a pool of fresh red blood spread.
