Quick Transmigration - After Betraying the Male Lead, the Supporting Female Character Gets Locked Up and Cries - Chapter 19

Just when everyone was taken aback, Su Yu directly sat in Gu Yanqing’s lap, her slender arms wrapped around his neck as she snorted at Shen Qingqing.

“Who said there’s no space?”

Shen Qingqing was so furious her heart ached. What a shameless woman!

“Brother Yanqing! Look at her!”

Su Yu’s loud voice startled her, and she shrunk into Gu Yanqing’s embrace. “Lower your voice, you scared me.”

She pretended to ask, “I’m sitting here, Brother Yanqing doesn’t mind, right?”

Gu Yanqing faintly smirked, “I don’t mind.”

Su Yu lifted her chin triumphantly and taunted Shen Qingqing, “Hear that? Brother Yanqing said he doesn’t mind.”

Shen Qingqing’s chest heaved with anger, tears welling up in her eyes as if she was about to cry out of anger.

Someone intervened to mediate and make room.

“Alright alright, we’re all friends here, fighting hurts the harmony. Let’s just drink, drink. Qingqing, there’s still a spot over here, why don’t you let the lady sit here?”

“Who’s friends with her?” Shen Qingqing grumbled reluctantly, then glared at Su Yu disapprovingly. “Did you hear that? There’s a spot over there, are you going by yourself or do I have to invite you over?”

Su Yu hugged Gu Yanqing tightly, displaying a clingy attitude as if to say “no one can separate me from Mr. Gu”.

“I’m not going over there, I want to stay here.”

Shen Qingqing’s eyebrows furrowed, “You!”

Su Yu, frightened, buried her face in Gu Yanqing’s chest, her timid appearance not conflicting with her stunningly beautiful face, like a rose battered by rain, eliciting uncontrollable feelings of pity.

Su Yu pretended to be aggrieved, “Brother Yanqing, she’s too aggressive.”

Gu Yanqing’s lips curved slightly as he patted her head soothingly, “Don’t be silly.”

It seemed like a reprimand, but it was actually indulgent.

Gu Yanqing’s attitude stung Shen Qingqing’s eyes, and her eye sockets instantly turned red.

In the end, it was Shen Qingqing who was driven away first.

Su Yu seized her spot, looking smug as if she had won, making people itch with resentment. In terms of making enemies, Su Yu ranked second to none.

【So, what’s the expression on the male lead’s face? Is he frowning? Impatient? Does he think I’m too arrogant and fake?】

The system scanned the male lead’s facial expression.

His brows are relaxed, the corners of his eyebrows slightly raised, his lips curved in a seemingly nonchalant manner, his gaze calm with a hint of indulgence…

Overall, the male lead not only didn’t dislike it, but also seemed very doting. What’s going on?

The system’s tone was complex: 【This is difficult to comment on. 】

Su Yu was convinced of her own speculation and disdainful of the system: 【You’re really useless, you can’t even tell this. Forget it, I don’t need you. Just stay obedient. This mission will be a breeze with the host leading the way.】

System: 【…】 Hopefully?

The small interlude before the gathering ended, and it was time for the main course.

Gu Yanqing rolled up his sleeves, revealing his slender and firm forearms. He lifted his wine glass and took a sip, his icy gaze scanning in a certain direction.

A cold aura swept through, causing the five individuals to stiffen.

Then, with some reluctance, they got up, facing the curious gazes of the crowd, and walked towards Su Yu with embarrassment written all over their faces.

Five people, the same five who had bullied her before, approached her with an air of intimidation.

Su Yu blinked, subconsciously shrinking towards Gu Yanqing, pretending to be imposing. “Wh-What are you guys doing?”

As the five approached, most of the light was blocked, and distorted shadows loomed over.

Su Yu nervously swallowed,【Could it be that I’ve misbehaved too much to make people hate me? They can’t bear to see it anymore and want to help the female lead vent her anger by openly attacking me in front of everyone?】 

The system thought to itself: So you also know that you are hated by others.

It hypocritically comforted her, 【No, with the male lead here, they wouldn’t dare. If things get bad, just hide in the male lead’s embrace. They wouldn’t dare to pull you out and beat you up in public, would they?】

Su Yu, considering her knack for courting death, cleared her throat and modestly expressed, 【That possibility can’t be ruled out.】

The system fell silent: 【…】

Hmm… Having self-awareness is also a good thing.

The five people, with their “feroucious” appearances and “menacing” demeanor, stood in front of Su Yu, and then… in unison, they bowed deeply, “Miss Su, we’re sorry, please forgive us.”

Su Yu: “…Huh?”

Others: “???”

Only Gu Yanqing remained expressionless, as if he had known about this matter long ago.

The five glanced at Gu Yanqing, gritted their teeth, and continued to apologize, “Sorry for pouring  drinks at you during Qingqing’s birthday banquet.”

“Your brother was also beaten by us.”

“We know we were wrong, please forgive us.”

“This is our apology.”

Exquisitely packaged boxes were placed into Su Yu’s arms, containing things like bracelets, necklaces, cosmetics, diamond hairpins. They looked seemingly inconspicuous but upon closer inspection, they were all luxury items worth at least five figures.

Su Yu’s eyes lit up, unexpected fortune?

The most valuable item was the handbag she had seen the woman at the restaurant give her, worth nearly three hundred thousand, accompanied by a receipt. Whether she used it herself or sold it, she wouldn’t suffer a loss.

The woman apologized with humiliation, “That day at the restaurant, I had your parents and brother brought there, and I also instructed them to come find you trouble. I was obsessed and did something wrong. This bag is my apology. I’m sorry. , I know I was wrong, Miss Su, can you forgive me?”

Su Yu, usually adept at acting coquettish and affected, was somewhat at a loss in the face of this situation.

She looked to Gu Yanqing for help, “A-Yan…”

Gu Yanqing gently touched her head, his voice cold yet protective, “It’s okay, it’s up to you. Do you want to forgive them?”

Su Yu hesitated, but eventually nodded, pretending, “Well… then I forgive you all, but don’t let it happen again.”

Until next time!

I don’t mind!!

As long as the money’s there!!

Dear benevolent scatterers of wealth!!!

The five breathed a sigh of relief, responding in unison.

Someone has finally caught on. No wonder Gu Yanqing was willing to attend a small violin celebration party. Previously, they thought it was because of Shen Qingqing’s face, assuming he was there to support his woman.

Gu Yanbei also raised an eyebrow, seemingly underestimating the position of this woman in his brother’s heart.

But it doesn’t matter. Regardless of her position, they would break up sooner or later. He didn’t mind being the bad guy to help them out.

“My younger sibling is truly kind-hearted. If it were me, I wouldn’t forgive them so easily for doing something like this,” sighed Gu Yanbei.

Sibling?!

Everyone was shocked.

Shen Qingqing looked at him with red eyes, “Brother Yanbei!”

Gu Yanbei seemed to realize his slip of the tongue and immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Embarrassed, he said, “Oh my, I spoke without thinking. Mom said that only Qingqing is the daughter-in-law recognized by our Gu family. I’m sorry, Miss Su, please don’t mind me.”

“How about this, I’ll punish myself with a drink as an apology?”

With that, he quickly downed a glass of wine.

Su Yu: “…”

He did it on purpose, didn’t he?

Su Yu’s momentum was immediately suppressed, her expression stiff, and her smile forced. She loosened her grip on Gu Yanqing’s hands.

Suddenly, Gu Yanqing spoke up, “Big brother, there’s no need to blame yourself. After all, our Gu family has more than one son. As long as big brother is willing, Mom’s wish shouldn’t be hard to fulfill.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Qingqing’s face turned pale, Gu Yanbei choked on the wine he was drinking, and Su Yu burst into laughter. The others seemed to be deep in thought.

Gu Yanqing, a man who effortlessly turned the situation around with just one sentence. Awesome!
