The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind

Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Novels Incorporated into Reality?

“What? Are you talking about Zhou Yanbai, the recent top tycoon of New Port City that everyone can’t stop talking about?”

When she heard Jiang Leyi’s surprised tone, Jiang Nanshu was not at all surprised.

She replied with a smile, “Yes, exactly. It should have been his brother, Zhou Yanxu, but unfortunately, he perished in a fire disaster. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been Zhou Yanbai’s turn.”

Jiang Leyi: “…”

She really had no idea about this.

But thinking of Zhou Yanbai’s former detestable actions, she crossed her arms and sneered, “So, these listening devices were installed by someone he hired? Just to get revenge for Su Ran? But considering his pettiness, it’s not surprising—after all, which normal person would push an elderly person to the ground?”

The couple appeared to be in their forties or fifties, with mostly gray hair. Such a fall would certainly cause issues, yet Zhou Yanbai lacked any empathy, even watching coldly on the sidelines.

Jiang Leyi got angrier as she spoke, “It’s truly despicable, how can there be such a person.”

Jiang Nanshu remained silent.

Even in two different worlds, Zhou Yanbai was still the Zhou Yanbai she knew.

Vengeful and ruthless, behaving inhumanly.

And he was Su Ran’s biggest support, which made him difficult to handle.

Even if she did not go looking for trouble, he would still harm her for various reasons.

Even though they were still strangers right now.

But to avenge Su Ran, he probably wouldn’t care too much.

“Do you think this kind of person could have killed his own brother to climb the ranks? Just like in ancient stories, where princes would kill their brothers and fathers for the throne?” Jiang Leyi continued to mutter, letting her imagination roam and incorporating novelistic plots into reality.

Jiang Nanshu slightly curved her lips, “Exactly, he orchestrated that fire disaster.”

Jiang Leyi stared at her blankly.

Jiang Nanshu added, “He bribed a couple; the man was responsible for pouring the gasoline, and the woman for setting the fire. They also opened the gas cylinders, leading to the explosion in the villa. Zhou Yanxu was trapped inside and the blast reduced him to ashes.”

“Zhou Yanbai pretended to rush into the villa to save his brother, pretending to be emotional, but just then, the explosion occurred. He was thrown by the blast, the fire burning his body and leaving deep scars on his shoulder and leg. The end of that couple wasn’t nice either; evil begets evil—they too felt the burning agony and ended up kneeling and begging for forgiveness from the arsonists, but sadly it was too late.”

As Jiang Leyi’s expression grew increasingly blank, “Nannan…” she couldn’t help but interrupt her, “How do you know so clearly, as if you were there?”

Jiang Nanshu gave her a gentle smile, “Sister, I’m just guessing, just a joke to lighten the mood.”

Jiang Leyi immediately sighed with relief.

Jiang Nanshu’s way of telling it was as if she had witnessed it herself, sending chills down the spine.

“Isn’t it time for dinner? Shall we go?” Jiang Nanshu nudged Jiang Leyi to leave.

The dinner was set on the second floor of the hotel.

Everyone from the crew was there.

Along with many staff members.

Several tables were set up.

The main actors sat at one table.

Director Wen raised his glass, cheerfully saying, “Here’s to a smooth start for our shoot, cheers!”

Everyone clinked glasses, except Su Ran, who raised a glass of water.

The actress playing the third female lead was somewhat famous in the industry and had several notable works.

Apart from the lead female role that Director Wen cast a newcomer for, the rest were veteran actors.

This time an exception was made by adding the newcomer Jiang Leyi.

However, after more than a month of marketing, Jiang Leyi, thanks to her role as the villainous third party in a high school drama, had gained fame.

Everyone said that although she played a bad character, she was so straightforward that people found it hard to dislike her.

Thus, she also earned the nickname Straight Sister.

The actress didn’t hate Jiang Leyi, but she inexplicably disliked Su Ran.

During the audition, Jiang Leyi had won her over with her acting skills, and losing to a talented newcomer left her with no complaints.

But Su Ran was simply parachuted in, she hadn’t made any effort, and was forcibly inserted by the investors, who could accept that?

However, helpless against the powerful backing of the Golden Master, she could only swallow her anger.

Now that rumors were circulating about her being abandoned by the Golden Master, they started having targeted ideas again.

The supporting actress said in a sarcastic tone, “Ranran, why aren’t you drinking? This liquor isn’t strong, normally at banquets you can down three glasses without getting drunk. Why are you pouring yourself a glass of water on such a great day?”

Su Ran was clutching her glass.

Although she had known that attending this dinner would lead to exclusion and targeting, she hadn’t expected the supporting actress to be so arrogant.

Su Ran sensed Director Wen’s displeasure.

She quickly explained, “I’ve been feeling unwell these past few days, so drinking isn’t suitable for me, Director Wen, I’ll drink water instead of wine, this glass is to you, I definitely won’t let you down.”

Director Wen was silent.

He had no expectations at all, and even felt somewhat desperate due to Su Ran’s somewhat notorious reputation.

This might be the worst drama he had ever directed.

And it was his first TV series in his life.

If it didn’t succeed, he should just stick to the film industry.

He forced a smile, “No, the success of the upcoming drama all depends on your effort, so perform well for me, strive for a one-take, no NG.”

Su Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

The supporting actress was not content to let Su Ran get off so easily.

Finding no excuse to make things difficult, she could only sulkily eat her meal.

Just then, the braised fish was placed in front of Su Ran.

Normally it didn’t bother her, but at that moment the greasy fishy smell was all too apparent.

Su Ran resisted and resisted, but still couldn’t help covering her mouth and running away.

The supporting actress, holding the fish with her chopsticks, was at a loss whether to move or stay still.

Was this fish really that disgusting? Enough to make her vomit in front of everyone?

She had already picked it up.

The supporting actress had no choice but to eat it, only to find the taste quite nice.

She drew the corners of her mouth in silence, “So pretentious, acting as if she’s pregnant, vomiting at the sight of these dishes.”

Jiang Nanshu quietly ate his rice.

Suddenly it clicked.

No drinking, no tolerance for greasy smells.

It seemed almost certain she was pregnant.

But without confirmation, Jiang Nanshu didn’t know whether Su Ran was really carrying Zhou Yanbai’s child.

Truly interesting.

He didn’t believe Zhou Yanbai would become completely submissive to Su Ran for the sake of the child.

Zhou Yanbai was a despicable man who would do anything to achieve his goals.

So, it would be interesting to let someone else uncover this.

After dinner, Su Ran made an excuse to leave.

Jiang Leyi also didn’t want to stay, and as she stepped outside to breathe the night air, suddenly a pleading male voice reached her.

“Yan Bai, you promised me. I helped you come back to claim your inheritance, now you tell me where my daughter is. How can you go back on your word? If it weren’t for you, how could she have been lost for so many years? It’s Uncle pleading with you, I have only this one child in my life. If I don’t find her, I will not rest in peace when I die, Yan Bai, look at your Aunt because of this matter, she’s nearly gone mad, I’m begging you, tell us where my daughter was sent.”
