Capítulo 432: Chapter 431 Taking Over the Company

Jiang Nanshu lowered her head and took a longer look at Youyou, while Su Ran held the child tightly.

After a moment, Jiang Nanshu finally spoke faintly, “Keep a close eye on the child, there are so many people in the hospital. If she bumps into something, it won’t be good for you or for others.”

Su Ran’s gaze drifted to Jiang Nanshu’s stomach. She was wearing a loose dress, and her limbs were slender, so it wasn’t obvious at all.

She lifted her head to look at Jiang Nanshu’s face, trying to appear as calm as possible, “Are you pregnant? How many months?”

Jiang Nanshu saw that Su Ran’s smile was forced and, with crossed arms and a half-smile, she watched her, “Four months. What about it?”

Su Ran calculated the dates in her mind. Bao Yan had promised to wait until Jiang Nanshu had the child before dealing with her. During this period, Jiang Nanshu could have her child peacefully. Su Ran’s heart suddenly relaxed a bit, and she managed a smile, “Nothing, just asking. Time flies so fast. A few years later, and we’re both mothers.”

Jiang Nanshu watched her quietly for a few seconds before speaking lightly, “Su Ran, do you know what you look like right now?”

“What?” Su Ran was slightly stunned.

“You look like a vicious rat that wants others to let down their guard,” Jiang Nanshu looked down at her, “Even if not for yourself, think about your poor daughter. Can she endure any more of your scheming?”

A wave of pallor washed over Su Ran’s face.

She suppressed the disbelief in her eyes.

How had Jiang Nanshu figured it out?

She shook her head in denial, “I haven’t… I wouldn’t do those things again, not for the sake of my daughter…”

Jiang Nanshu looked at her daughter again.

Youyou, small as she was, sensed the adults’ unfavorable atmosphere and placed her tiny body in front of Su Ran with a scrunched-up face, “Don’t bully my mom.”

Jiang Nanshu was exceptionally lenient with the child, smiling at Youyou, “Then you should keep a good watch on your mom so she doesn’t bother me, okay?”

Youyou looked back and forth between Su Ran and Jiang Nanshu, silently shielding Su Ran.

Only then did Jiang Nanshu walk past them to leave.

Youyou reached out her little hand to touch Su Ran’s cheek, “Mommy, don’t be scared, Youyou is here.”

Su Ran looked into her daughter’s pure eyes.

Her heart ached.

The world of a child is simple, protecting only those closest to them. So, between Jiang Nanshu and her, she could unconditionally side with her mother, right or wrong.

But Youyou didn’t know that her mother was the worst of them all.

Her hands were too dirty, scheming how to kill someone else.

“Youyou, you must live well no matter what, can you promise to do that?”

Youyou looked a bit confused since she was young and didn’t quite understand what Su Ran meant, but she nodded earnestly and replied in her childlike voice, “Okay.”

…

After going home, Jiang Nanshu started contacting Lu Qingyan again, but the messages went unanswered, sinking like stones in the sea.

Jiang Nanshu suddenly felt an intense panic.

After some thought, she went to Lu Qingyan’s company.

Ye Yuanlai met her at the reception.

Many people didn’t recognize Jiang Nanshu and looked at her curiously.

As Jiang Nanshu walked ahead, there was whispering behind her, which stopped only when Ye Yuanlai gave them a look. However, anyone allowed into the president’s private elevator couldn’t be of low status.

It was instantly understood.

When she arrived at Lu Qingyan’s office, Jiang Nanshu sat directly in Lu Qingyan’s chair, with Ye Yuanlai across the desk from her.

“Do you have any news of President Lu?”
