The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind-Chapter 96: Do You Want to Help Boss Piao Steal the Krabby Patty?

Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Do You Want to Help Boss Piao Steal the Krabby Patty?

Oh, a twist?

Even Jiang Hemian was curious now. Jiang Nanshu had clearly claimed the diamond was in the bag, but by the looks of it, it seemed rather unlikely that it would remain undiscovered.

Where had she hidden it?

Jiang Nanshu opened her purse and dumped everything onto the table in one go.

A wallet, a small mirror, lipstick, tissues, and even a little umbrella.

The usual stuff she carried around when going out.

To prove her point, she even opened the purse wide, showing its spotless interior, and unzipped every compartment to ensure there were no hidden items.

Seeing the befuddled look in Shang Xu’s grape-like eyes, Jiang Nanshu confidently smiled, "I told you there’s nothing, yet you still don’t believe me."

His porcelain face took on a serious expression, resembling a mature little adult.

He fished out a small remote control from his own pocket.

"No choice then, I’ll have to use this move."

Jiang Nanshu didn’t understand—why on earth did he pull out a remote control?

The next second, her bag lit up with a dazzling array of colors.

She looked down and saw the glowing effect even more pronounced due to her white bag.

"..."

[Could a professional please tell me why diamonds would light up...]

Jiang Hemian: "..."

So it was hidden in the bag after all.

He turned his head away, unable to watch, leaving Jiang Nanshu to explain by herself.

They could offer no help.

A lit bag was forgivable, Jiang Nanshu could argue she installed a rainbow light in her bag because she was afraid it would be too dark on her way home at night.

But nobody told her that the diamond would also make noise!

Yes, the diamond started to speak.

It kept repeating in the voice of Mr. Krabs:

"Do you want to help Boss Piao steal the delicious Krusty Krab burger?"

"No, I’m just taking it home to eat."

"*&*#￥%..."

"Boss Piao, give me back the secret formula for the delicious Krabby Patty!"

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

She didn’t know what expression to change to at that moment.

Because everyone was staring at her... oh no, at her bag.

Apart from the diamond making a racket, the villa was eerily silent.

Jiang Yunchuan’s mouth was agape enough to fit an egg.

Seeing Jiang Nanshu’s complexion turning a shade of green, he touched his nose and shifted his gaze away.

Blind spots are great, aren’t they?

Jiang Nanshu picked up a fruit knife and sliced open the stitched seam at the bottom of her bag. The diamond came into view, glaring with iridescent light, nearly blinding Jiang Nanshu.

This damn thing was actually a toy!

A fake diamond!

Shang Xu snorted, "See, I knew it was with you."

He blinked his grape-like eyes innocently, "Little Auntie, let me show you a transforming diamond."

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

[You got it wrong, your Little Auntie is someone else!]

And thank you for the invite, but she didn’t want to see.

Shang Xu pressed the buttons on the remote control, and the next moment, the diamond split in half, and a rolled-up piece of paper fell out.

It had the secret recipe for the delicious crab burger written on it.

"Haha, is there a place to hide? I’m tired and want to crawl in and lie down."

It took Jiang Nanshu a while to awkwardly say, "Do you believe it? Boss Piao came to me in a dream to steal the secret recipe."

The others: "..."

In the end, Jiang Nanshu resignedly crouched next to Little Ha’s kennel.

Just now, under Shang Xu’s supervision, she went next door to feed the dog...

Only then did she find out this was a villa purchased by the Shang Family, and that Shang Xu was sent here to live by his mother, the specific reasons unknown.

But this little brat Shang Xu was actually allergic to dog hair!

No wonder he was crying and sneezing that day.

Even so, he was still reluctant to part with the dog, which showed how deeply attached he was.

Feeling utterly dispirited, Jiang Nanshu scooped a ladle of dog food into the bowl: "Young Master Dog, time to eat."

Little Ha trotted over, rubbing against Jiang Nanshu’s leather shoes as if forgetting any scolding or punishment.

Jiang Nanshu reached out to pet the dog’s head, laughing, "You really don’t hold grudges. I almost buried you alive last week."

A shadow fell over her face as Jiang Nanshu looked up and saw Lu Qingyan looking down at her from above.

"What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen someone feed a dog before? But I’m bullying his nephew and lying through my teeth, I bet I’ll be disliked for a while again, which is just great."

Jiang Nanshu stood up and took a step back, with a pitiful look: "Brother Qingyan, I didn’t mean to lie. I just really liked that diamond, you know that I’m a country girl, short-sighted, never seen much good stuff."

Jiang Nanshu displayed her feigned greed in full splendor.

She even briefly entertained Lu Qingyan’s perspective.

Ugh, maxing out the Disgust Value.

After a moment, Lu Qingyan softly said, "It’s okay, everyone makes mistakes from time to time, it’s good as long as you correct them."

Jiang Nanshu: "..."

"I’m practically playing the villain here, and you’re giving me a lesson in morality and law?"

After holding it in for quite a while, she managed to say, "Mm, you’re right, Brother Qingyan, you’re such a good person."

Jiang Nanshu suddenly looked up, crashing into Lu Qingyan’s gentle gaze, and she raised a smile: "Are you this nice to everyone?"

"What?" Lu Qingyan blinked in bewilderment.

Jiang Nanshu lightly curled her lips, smiling, "I’m saying Brother Qingyan is too gentle. I feel sorry for you. Why did Su Ran hurt you back then?"

"It seems that doesn’t matter much anyway. Given how good-natured Brother Qingyan is, even if hurt, whenever Su Ran calls, you would still go."

It took a long while for Lu Qingyan to reply, "She didn’t actually hurt me in the past. Whether you believe it or not, every encounter I had with her was accidental."

"Right, the bar incident... She was drunk and yelling my name. I didn’t want to get a reputation in the Beijing Circle." Lu Qingyan’s tone was very light.

Jiang Nanshu was taken aback.

"Good lord... such a tight explanation, I almost thought you could hear my inner thoughts."

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" he asked, his expression calm.

Jiang Nanshu racked her brain, trying her best to poke at the softest part of Lu Qingyan’s heart.

In the entire book, the tumultuous love and hate between him and Su Ran were just getting started.

The indifference now would soon turn into regret.

A flash of inspiration.

Jiang Nanshu lifted her almond-shaped eyes, hesitantly biting her lip: "Do you still like her? I know I can’t compare with her, but I can’t bear the thought of her yearning for you while we are still fiancés. I can see that she still likes you a lot, so I’m scared you’ll be taken away."

He took a long time to answer, "Does this question really matter?"

Jiang Nanshu’s eyes brightened.

"Ha, got him right in the heart. Bai Yueguang truly is untouchable, not to be mentioned or touched. Keep it up." She accused, with feigned grievance, "Isn’t this important? It’s about if Su Ran and I fell into the water at the same time, whom you would save. I don’t want you to watch me die because of her."

"There’s no such possibility."

Jiang Nanshu persisted: "You have to make a choice."

Lu Qingyan said without hesitation: "I would save you."

The corners of Jiang Nanshu’s lips curved into a sly smile as she continued, "Then, faced with her life-saving grace for you, whom would you choose, her or me?"

This time, Lu Qingyan did not give an answer.

"Heh, you hesitated."
