Before Jiang Sheng's hand could even touch Jiang Nian's forehead, she dodged away with a look of disgust on her face.
He spoke coldly.
"Get to the point, don't pretend to be all lovey-dovey here."
"It disgusts me."
Pack?
Jiang Sheng's hand froze in mid-air, his expression awkward.
This word was truly merciless, piercing through his hypocritical facade.
"Jiang Nian, since you heard everything just now, let's not beat around the bush."
Chen Fulan gritted her teeth.
“I know you treat me, your dad, and Ranran like enemies now, and I don’t expect you to save Ranran on your own initiative.”
"Tell me, how much money do you want to plead with Elder Qin of the Tang family on our behalf?"
The matter of cutting the cello offended the Tang family.
The Tang family isn't short of the millions in compensation for the cello, so they refused to sign a letter of understanding and were determined to put Jiang Ranran in jail.
Jiang Ranran's act of using Jiang Nian's earring to impersonate the Qin family's savior has offended the Qin family again. Now, the Jiang family's real estate company is facing bankruptcy.
Jiang Sheng sold his car and a house to have the money to bribe officials at the police station. But because of Old Qin's influence, no one dared to accept the money even when it was offered to them.
Jiang Sheng and Chen Fulan had no other choice but to beg Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian is now Tang Qiuya's best friend and also the savior whom Old Master Qin values highly.
With just a word from her, Jiang Ranran could get out of the police station.
"money?"
Jiang Nian scoffed and looked over coldly, "It's not impossible."
"One hundred million, and I'll put in a word for you, plead for your life."
"What?"
Jiang Sheng and Chen Fulan's expressions changed instantly.
How could anyone dare to ask for 100 million?
Let alone 100 million, even if they sold all of the Jiang family's companies, real estate, and assets, they couldn't even scrape together 50 million!
Jiang Nian dared to make such an outrageous demand, clearly knowing that they had no chance of ever being able to pay it.
"If you can't come up with the money, then don't bother me anymore."
"Stop bothering my friend. If it happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Jiang Nian's tone carried an undisguised warning.
After saying that, he prepared to call Lin Ruru and Han Xu and leave.
Chen Fulan panicked and stood in front of her.
"Jiang Nian, what will it take for you to help Ranran? Do you expect me to kneel down and beg you?"
"Fine, I'll kneel down and beg you today!"
As she spoke, Chen Fulan knelt down on the ground.
Jiang Sheng's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Xiao Lan, are you crazy! How can you, as an elder, kneel before a child?"
Chen Fulan gritted her teeth, looking resolute as if she could sacrifice everything for her daughter.
"I'd do anything to save Ranran, let alone kneel down!"
Why do some people always love to do things that move them?
Did she say that she would help Chen Fulan if Chen Fulan knelt down before her?
Jiang Nian looked at Chen Fulan coldly.
He showed no expression whatsoever.
“Your daughter should bear the consequences of her own actions.”
"If you block my way again, I'll step over you."
Chen Fulan thought that Jiang Nian was just a child, and since she, as an elder, had knelt down before her, she couldn't possibly have no reaction at all.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nian was completely unresponsive.
Hearing Jiang Nian say she would step over her, Chen Fulan couldn't help but shudder. Jiang Nian didn't bother to look at her anymore and simply pulled Lin Ruru and Han Xu away.
As Jiang Nian's figure disappeared from sight, Chen Fulan's shoulders trembled with anger.
My teeth are practically grinding to powder.
"Jiang Nian, you'll regret your decision today one day!"

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, a blonde girl with a lollipop in her mouth tilted her head and asked, "Was that scene filmed?"
"It's been photographed."
The butler replied from the side.
The girl subtly curved her lips into a smile.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Jiang Sheng and Chen Fulan were at their wits' end.
Despair ensued.
Are they just supposed to watch helplessly as their daughter, whom they've cherished since childhood, is sent to jail?
Just then, a petite figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
"You want to save your daughter, right?"
Jiang Sheng was stunned, looking at the girl in front of him who was as cute as a doll and whose features were so delicate that she didn't seem real.
"Who are you……"
At a gesture, the butler handed something to Jiang Sheng.
The girl's expression was nonchalant.
"Here is evidence of corruption by the deputy minister of your Ministry of Public Security."
"I've given you the leverage. You know what to do next, right?"
Evidence of embezzlement by a deputy minister of public security?
Jiang Sheng and Chen Fulan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Is this for real?
How could an ordinary person possibly get their hands on something like this!
Who is this girl, and why did she give this to them?
Jiang Sheng swallowed hard: "...Are you telling the truth? Why are you helping us?"
"Of course it's because your whole family is disgusting."
The girl's lips curled slightly, her expression innocent and pure.
What he said, however, was quite surprising.
Jiang Sheng thought he had misheard: "What?"
Joey tilted his chin up and looked at the figure in front of him.
Such an almost all-around excellent person who stands at the top has such a scumbag father, a scheming stepmother, and a vicious stepsister.
And yet, it is precisely this bloodline that Chinese people cannot escape.
Keeping them jumping around in front of her should be enough to disgust her.
"You're welcome."
The girl squinted and casually tossed the half-eaten lollipop into the trash can.
"If you want to thank someone, thank you for giving birth to a rival that I really want to have some fun with."

The next morning.
The atmosphere between Britain and China is unusual.
Everyone was spreading this rumor, including on forums.
"Have you heard? Another transfer student is coming to the senior year today."
"I heard that the transfer student is no ordinary person. She is the daughter of the Mellon family, one of the four major conglomerates in the United States. Her family background is exceptionally prominent."
"The Mellon family's daughter, isn't she receiving the top-tier Western elite education from a young age? Why would she come all the way to China to study?"
"Yes, and I heard that the young lady had an IQ of 160+ when she was twelve, and finished her university courses by the age of thirteen. Why would she need to go to high school?"
"Huh? Does that mean she's a genius like Jiang Nian? I wonder who would be stronger if the two of them faced off..."

Academic Affairs Office.
The head of the teaching department looked respectfully at the blonde girl in school uniform sitting on the sofa, accompanied by the butler.
"Ms. Mellon, with your grades, you can get into our best class in the senior year, the honors class. Shall I arrange it for you now?"
"The top-performing class?"
The girl blinked sweetly, "I remember that student named Jiang Nian in your senior year, wasn't he in Class 36?"
"I'm not going to the top class, I'm going to class 36!"
