The plane landed in Beijing.
All the way there, she had been with Lu Qingyan.
Jiang Yunchuan was wearing a pair of sunglasses, looking around.
At the airport, his eyes brightened when he saw a beautiful woman with long legs and a slender waist, but he then quickly averted his gaze.
No.
He couldn’t betray their Six Love Organization...
With Lu Qingyan holding onto her, Jiang Nanshu didn’t pay much attention to where she was going.
After all, Lu Qingyan would lead her to a safe place...
Jiang Nanshu looked up at his tall silhouette.
Her red lips slightly pursed.
Since Lu Qingyan’s birthday was at the end of the month, in about ten more days, it would arrive in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Nanshu glanced at him, then lowered her eyes before looking up again with a smile, her voice clear, "Sweetie, I have a big gift for you when you celebrate your birthday."
"What is it?" Lu Qingyan turned his head, his eyes smiling as he asked Jiang Nanshu.
Jiang Nanshu’s smile grew brighter, "It will be unforgettable for you."
Lu Qingyan was slightly stunned but did not doubt her. Instead, he became curious about what Jiang Nanshu would give him, thinking about it made him look forward to it.
Jiang Nanshu returned to her own home.
This house had been relatively unproblematic so far, especially since Jiang Yisen was still a key subject of police investigation, they wouldn’t do anything to him without finding something.
Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang got their divorce certificate yesterday.
He usually didn’t smoke much, but now the ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and he himself appeared rather unkempt.
Their parents’ divorce, all the elder brothers knew about it.
But none of them showed up.
[Sigh, it’s all the mess I caused. If only I weren’t here, why don’t you remarry, seeing how dejected you are makes me feel bad too.]
Suddenly, Jiang Nanshu’s inner thoughts were heard.
Mr. Jiang looked towards the door and saw Jiang Nanshu standing there, her head lowered like she had done something wrong, visibly guilty.
It wouldn’t be honest to say the divorce wasn’t upsetting.
But the disappointment was real too.
There were still a few children in the family, all adults now.
He had originally intended to transfer the custody of Jiang Jingcheng and Jiang Zhouye to her, but she refused to take any, even saying these children would be a burden to her.
The children were all grown up.
It wasn’t as if they would abandon her in old age or sever ties with her just because of the divorce. Such things wouldn’t happen; the children’s filial piety would not be diminished.
Now that it had come to this,
Mr. Jiang would definitely not consider remarrying.
He threw the entire ashtray into the trash can, his voice gentle as he looked at the doorway: "Nannan is back? Tomorrow is Monday; you should return to school. Your principal has been asking me when you’ll return to class."
Jiang Nanshu walked inside, a compliant smile on her lips, "Okay, Dad, I will focus on my studies and won’t let you down."
Mr. Jiang’s heart softened, looking at Jiang Nanshu he felt somewhat relieved, "Don’t pressure yourself, even if your grades are not good, our Jiang Family can still provide you with a beautiful future. You just need to earn a degree."
"Okay."
Mr. Jiang continued, "Have you eaten?"
Jiang Nanshu nodded, "I have."
Jiang Nanshu nearly applauded her.
Such a strange act of revenge...
If she couldn’t have him, she would settle for her.
Jiang Nanshu forced a smile, "You win."
It was her first time encountering such a situation, rendering her speechless.
Yan Yidan nodded in satisfaction, "We are an organization that loves and supports each other, that stands united, and never abandons one another."
"Yes! Sister Yan, you’ve said it wonderfully!" Xu Xi clapped tearfully, moved.
"Jiangjiang, to punish you for leaving without telling us, let’s feast together for lunch today to make up for it!" Xu Xi declared solemnly.
Hearing the punishment, Jiang Nanshu: "..."
She couldn’t hold back her laughter, her smile more genuine, as she pinched Xu Xi’s face, "Got it, my little hothead."
They all laughed together.
Jiang Nanshu then returned to the dull routine of campus life.
Life went on as usual, except that she always had genuinely caring people by her side.
Some things remained the same, yet some were different.
Xu Xi loved to bicker with Yang Jiashu, this ordinary rich girl blending right into their group, spending every day amidst laughter.
And Jiang Yunchuan would come looking for Yan Yidan every afternoon, restless, wanting to take her out racing.
Yan Yidan would respond gently every time, "Don’t rush, just wait."
Then Jiang Nanshu would see her Fifth Brother instantly calm down.
Seeing the gentle Yan Yidan, his expression was somewhat indescribable, wanting to speak his mind but afraid, ultimately making him smirk and say, "Understood."
