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

Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Chu Muxi Has Arrived

Director Wen wanted to edit out all the martial arts scenes in the movie in advance.

Because Jiang Nanshu was a student, they couldn’t keep her running around with the crew all the time.

Even after the production wrapped, there would still be three months to go.

Moreover, Jiang Nanshu wouldn’t agree to delay in the crew for such a long time.

The half-month deadline was her own suggestion.

Today, it was Su Ran’s scene again, but she used a stunt double, yet Director Wen, who normally never tolerated the use of stand-ins, begrudgingly let it pass with a grim face.

Su Ran had not even become famous yet and was already using a stunt double.

In Director Wen’s eyes, this was a problem with the actor’s professional ethic, and an actor who couldn’t endure hardships wasn’t worth it.

But Su Ran just had good luck.

Previously, Bao Yan invested and inserted her into the crew,

and now there was another prince from the Hong Kong circle who wouldn’t let her shoot any “dangerous” scenes.

They even found her a body double that was ninety-percent similar to her, taking care of every aspect so thoroughly that Director Wen had no chance to nitpick.

All Su Ran needed to do was show her face on camera.

Director Wen had been in a foul mood all along.

Only when he saw Jiang Leyi’s scenes would the bitter expression on his face ease for a moment.

Su Ran was not only weak in action scenes; her acting was also poor.

She somehow managed to portray the image of the resolute female general as a fragile, delicate flower.

Director Wen had a fit of ‘heart attack,’ and even vaguely regretted agreeing to let Su Ran join the crew because he wanted to keep Bao Yan’s investment. He felt that even if the film would be rubbish in his hands and never shot, he shouldn’t have agreed to Su Ran’s participation.

But it was no use regretting now; he could only slowly teach her.

Fortunately, the stand-in they hired got through the martial arts scenes rather quickly.

Under Jiang Nanshu’s guidance, the martial arts scenes of the whole show had significantly improved in aesthetic quality.

In this regard, Director Wen was fairly satisfied.

During lunch break, Song Shizhao came over.

His presence could always attract the attention of all the females present.

Jiang Nanshu was sitting on a chair eating a meal box from the crew, while Song Shizhao sat next to her with a specially-prepared meal—seafood and abalone, which looked quite lavish and nutritious.

Seeing Jiang Nanshu’s plain dish, he smiled and said, “Cousin Nanshu, do you want to try some of my dish?”

Jiang Nanshu glanced at him and then looked away, “No, thanks. I’m afraid of being poisoned.”

Song Shizhao’s face darkened.

Jiang Nanshu’s voice wasn’t low; everyone around could hear her.

Song Shizhao nervously surveyed the surroundings and, upon realizing that no one had taken it the wrong way, breathed a sigh of relief.

His gentle façade could no longer be maintained, and he said with a sullen face, “Are you looking for trouble? So, you’re admitting that you and your mother spread rumors about me?”

Jiang Nanshu’s facial expression didn’t change, “If you say so, then it’s so. What’s the point of asking me all the time? And spreading rumors… you really know how to avoid harm and seek benefits.”

Song Shizhao was truly nervous.

Mainly because Jiang Nanshu’s unyielding demeanor made him feel uneasy.

He felt that Jiang Nanshu might contact the paparazzi at any time to break the news of this whole series of events, instilling in him a sense of fear. He harbored thoughts of silencing her; as long as Jiang Nanshu was alive, he would worry about his reputation crumbling one day.

Song Shizhao took a deep breath, regaining his refined and gentle demeanor, and transformed back into the amiable Movie Emperor.

“Do you know why I was late today?”

Jiang Nanshu didn’t even spare him a glance.

Song Shizhao, afraid of losing face, didn’t wait for Jiang Nanshu to respond, and quickly said, “Because your mother brought a girl. She is Miss Chu from the Chu family, but your mother insists that this is the real Jiang Nanshu. Even Miss Chu can clearly state all our experiences and details related to everyone, with a hundred percent accuracy. Although it seems unbelievable, Yichen has already recognized her as his cousin.”

Jiang Nanshu wasn’t surprised.

The transcender had been getting along with them for so long, and since her memory was still intact, recognizing them was indeed quite normal.

Jiang Nanshu finished the big chicken drumstick from her boxed meal before sighing faintly, “So what can I do? Your family almost hates me to death. Song Yichen recognizing her as his cousin seems pretty normal, doesn’t it? But… her last name is Chu. Can that be made public? You definitely can’t say Chu Muxi’s mother is your grandfather’s illegitimate daughter, otherwise how could Chu Muxi call your grandfather ‘grandfather’? As long as I’m around, her identity won’t ever withstand the light of day.”

Song Shizhao: “…”

Sharp-tongued!

Only now did he realize that Jiang Nanshu was indeed troublesome, and compared to before, she had really become a lot smarter.

Actually, the moment Chu Muxi appeared, he had believed it.

A person, no matter how much their personality changes, wouldn’t be so outrageous.

The former Jiang Nanshu was just foolish and malicious to the public, yet tirelessly devoted and submissive to her blood relatives, never talking back or fighting back when hit or scolded.

And there was no chance she would beat Song Yichen to such a state.

She used to wish that Song Yichen would only be close to her alone.

With a slight narrowing of his eyes, Song Shizhao suddenly smiled and said, “Actually, I think this matter is easy to solve, after all, the person who tied the bell to the tiger must take it off. Only one of you and her can stay, so in order to perfectly resolve this, I’ve brought her here.”

He slightly tilted his chin up, the smile on his face deepening, “Look, here she comes.”

Jiang Nanshu looked up to see Chu Muxi, dressed like a colorful butterfly, following Song Shizhao’s assistant in hopping strides into the room.

Just that dress on her body was worth a million—a haute couture dress, no less. Not to mention the goose-egg size diamond hanging around her neck, which dazzled painfully to the eyes.

There was also a long cut on her face, which had only just scabbed over and hadn’t fully healed, so she covered it with a thick layer of makeup.

“Shi Zhao cousin~” Chu Muxi ran over in little steps.

The instant she saw Jiang Nanshu, her expression changed, the joy instantly turning to anger, “Jiang Nanshu, what are you doing here! Have you no shame, running after cousin Shi Zhao to the crew to beg for forgiveness? Weren’t you pretending to be all that before? Now that I’m back, you’re scared, huh?”

Jiang Nanshu: “…”

The demise of this malicious female supporting character was truly not unjust.

With such low intelligence, she still wanted to fight against the protagonist group.

Being angry to death in prison would even seem dignified for her.

“Nuts,” Jiang Nanshu muttered that one word, then stood up to keep her distance from these two.

Birds of a feather flock together; this saying was really true.

She feared that staying close to them would dumb her down.

“What did you say? You stop right there!” Chu Muxi saw Jiang Nanshu and wanted to scratch her face.

Wasn’t it all because of that face that Lu Qingyan liked her too?

All of these were supposed to belong to her!

She knew that given enough time, Lu Qingyan would fall for this shell of a body.

But all of this was ruined by Jiang Nanshu.

Feeling the air movement behind her, Jiang Nanshu’s reaction was quicker.

The leftover boxed meal was directly smashed onto her face, and her foot kicked hard against Chu Muxi’s leg.

Chu Muxi stepped back in pain, tumbling into Song Shizhao, both of them rolling into a mess, the grease from her head accidentally smearing on Song Shizhao’s face.

Jiang Nanshu watched his nauseated expression, holding back a laugh, her own face still the image of grievance, “Ah, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, my hand slipped, I didn’t mean it.”

Song Shizhao pushed Chu Muxi aside and gave Jiang Nanshu a cold look before leaving with the assistant.

“Where is everybody! My eyes are burning, you useless fools, hurry up and help me.” Chu Muxi sat on the ground, eyes closed, crying and screaming loudly.

It wasn’t long before several well-trained bodyguards helped Chu Muxi up and led her away.

Jiang Nanshu left the crew directly.

By the entrance, she encountered Jiang Leyi, who looked troubled, standing with a middle-aged man.

Jiang Nanshu thought that this must be Zhou Zhenghui, the man who wanted Jiang Leyi to pose as his daughter.

“Sister.”

Hearing the voice, Jiang Leyi turned around, her eyes lighting up, “Nannan, you arrived just in time. Can you accompany me to the hospital? To meet his wife, I’m a bit nervous on my own.”
