Chapter 17: Let’s Show Your Brother Her True Colors
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
She was a little wary of her fourth brother. Whenever she saw him in the halls, she only greeted him briefly and politely.
Fortunately, although Jiang Ze Yu was busy causing trouble anywhere he could, he did not cause any trouble for her. One of the perks of having the school bully as your brother is that nobody dared to cross her.
Jiang Ze Yu and Jiang Yu though?
“Wan Wan, what’s happening? Do you know?” Ni Man Man asked anxiously. “Didn’t she just return to the Jiang family yesterday? Also, doesn’t your fourth brother not stay with the Jiang family anymore? How did they become so close?”
“I don’t know.”
“Wan Wan, you have to take this seriously.” Ni Man Man said. “Jiang Yu has just returned to the Jiang family and she is already close to Jiang Ze Yu. Jiang Ze Yu doesn’t even live with your family anymore!”
“I know that Jiang Ze Yu barely acknowledges you yet he’s being friendly with Jiang Yu. This means that Jiang Yu has some tricks up her sleeve. She definitely isn’t as dimwitted as she appears to be!”
“She even dared to provoke Miao Yi earlier and challenged her! This woman is definitely a scheming b***h. After she loses, she might go to the Jiang family and accuse us of bullying her. She might even try to say that we started this incident!”
“You were there when it happened. You are involved too! She will then go crying to your big brothers and your big brother will take her side. You will then fall out of favor with the whole family!”
Jiang Wan’s small face paled. “Man Man, you’re exaggerating too much. I don’t believe that my sister is that kind of person. My Big Brother is much smarter than that.”
“You can’t judge a book by it’s cover, Wan Wan,” Ni Man Man said. “You were the only princess of the Jiang family. Now, you have to compete with someone else for affection and favor. Aren’t you worried? I’m worried for you!”
“My Big Brother takes care of me.” Jiang Wan said but her voice sounded hollow.
“He won’t be for long if you don’t think of a plan,” Ni Man Man said with a look of disappointment. “I’ve thought of a way to show your big brother her true colors!”
“A way? What are you talking about?”
“I have a plan. Come here,” Ni Man Man whispered into Jiang Wan’s ear. “Your big brother just recognized that country bumpkin, right? He will definitely be bringing her around to some banquets to meet the other family members soon.”
“We will be at those banquets as well… Jiang Yu is a country bumpkin and doesn’t understand anything. Just offer her some guidance and I am sure she will follow whatever you say.”
“Ah?” Jiang Wan said hesitantly. “That’s not a very nice thing to do… I’ve never done such a thing before…”
“Wan Wan, being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to yourself,” Ni Man Man said firmly. “Just trust me. This is the right thing to do! You’re just too kind sometimes. Don’t feel pressured, alright. Just think about it. Jiang Yu is so ugly that you shine way brighter than her! Do you wish to…”
Ni Man Man looked towards the first row of the classroom and said slyly, “Do you want to catch the attention of Prince Charming?”
Jiang Wan quickly covered her mouth and said nervously, ‘”Keep your voice down! Someone might hear you!”
“Our school Belle is in love with the top student of our grade. Yet, she refuses to confess her feelings. Tsk, tsk, tsk,” Ni Man Man teased. “Look at your face, it’s as red as a peach blossom!”
“Ni Man Man, stop teasing me.” She looked down and her voice quivered. “She’s my sister. It would not be good for me to treat her that way…”
“Wan Wan, you really are too nice.” Ni Man Man sighed. “A kind person just gets used as a doormat!”
Jiang Wan hung her head. Before anyone caught the hint of malice in her eyes, it disappeared as quickly as it came.
