Quick Transmigration - After Betraying the Male Lead, the Supporting Female Character Gets Locked Up and Cries - Chapter 27

At this moment, at the Gu residence.

Mrs. Gu looked at the messages on her phone, and her blood pressure skyrocketed.

“Well, I knew it. Why did Yanqing suddenly move to that place? He always refused to come back for dinner. I thought he had broken up with that vixen. I didn’t expect he would directly keep her in the villa. If someone hadn’t helped me keep an eye on him, I would still be kept in the dark.”

Although Mr. Gu was somewhat surprised, he still comforted her, “Alright, why worry about these things? Children and grandchildren have their own fortunes. Yanqing is all grown up, he knows what he’s doing. She’s just a woman. If he likes her, let him keep her. As long as it doesn’t cause a big fuss.”

Mrs. Gu was annoyed, “How can I not worry? What if she gives birth to a grandson for me? Should we acknowledge him or not?”

“Anyway, I can’t accept that vixen bearing a child for our Gu family.”

“No, I have to go over there sometime.”

…

After the morning commotion, Su Yu’s living space gloriously expanded from the room to the entire villa.

Lying on the sofa, facing the oversized TV screen, with fruits and snacks on the table, sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, gently bathing her.

It would be perfect if there was a cat.

The system chimed in, 【Host, I can turn into a cat.】

Su Yu raised an eyebrow, 【Show me.】

The system grinned, 【But it requires a small condition..】

Su Yu asked, 【What condition?.】

The system replied, “As long as the host spends points to buy a cat skin for me, I can turn into a cat in the next world to accompany the host on tasks.”

Upon hearing that it would cost points, Su Yu promptly refused.

Cats are everywhere, there’s no way she’d spend points to get one!

The system cried bitterly.

Enjoying this comfortable life for a few days, Su Yu didn’t want to leave. Here, she had food and drink, didn’t have to work, and had a man to accompany her at night. Apart from not being able to go online, it was like living in paradise.

Su Yu slept until dawn, as usual not seeing Gu Yanqing. He should have gone to the company.

She stretched lazily, got up to wash, and prepared to eat.

But as soon as she stepped out, she noticed that the atmosphere downstairs was off. The servants, who rarely appeared, were gathered in the living room, looking nervous at the sofa’s position.

The sofa was facing away from the stairs, so Su Yu couldn’t see who was sitting there.

The system reminded her, 【Host, be careful, the male lead’s mother is here.】

Su Yu raised an eyebrow, 【The male lead’s mother?】

Su Yu had only heard her voice and never seen her in person.

Recalling that she had called her a vixen before, Su Yu understood. Today’s visitor wasn’t a good one.

Su Yu slowly descended the stairs, bypassed the sofa, and finally saw the true face of the male lead’s mother.

The woman had elegant curly hair, exquisite makeup, and a slender figure. However, her gaze was slightly sharp and shrewd. Despite being well-maintained, the signs of aging were still visible around her eyes, which fit the traditional image of a wealthy wife.

Su Yu pretended not to know her identity and asked, “Auntie, who are you?”

Mrs. Gu saw Su Yu and, with great poise, did not show any signs of disgust but instead scrutinized her.

“Are you the little secretary my son is keeping?”

This statement clarified her identity.

Su Yu showed a surprised expression and hesitated before speaking, “Yes, it’s me.”

The woman’s lips curled with mockery, “Well then, let’s get straight to the point. I’ll give you one million, leave my son.”

Su Yu blinked.

In typical CEO novels, isn’t the starting price five million? Why the discount for her?

Where’s the other four million?

Is she being discriminated against?

“Auntie, I also want to leave, but…”

…Your son won’t let me go.

“You think the money is too little?” Mrs. Gu sneered, “I’ve seen many greedy women like you. To be honest, one million is already giving you face. With your salary, who knows how many years it would take for you to earn one million.”

“If I were you, I’d take the money and leave, so as not to end up in a basket full of water and get nothing.”

Su Yu defended herself, “What I meant was…”

Mrs. Gu coldly interrupted, “I advise Miss Su to think carefully before speaking.”

“Oh, by the way, you probably don’t know yet, Yanqing is about to get engaged. The date is set for next month. So, whether you leave or not, you can’t marry into our family, and the Gu family won’t acknowledge any child you bear.”

“If you’re smart, you should take the money and start a new life in another city. Miss Su is very beautiful and can have a better life instead of being a mistress that can’t be seen. Think about it carefully, Miss Su.”

The woman lifted her delicate coffee cup and took a sip, quietly waiting for Su Yu to make a choice.

As the long speech fell on Su Yu’s ears, it was automatically filtered into one sentence.

Her voice trembled: “What did you say? Yanqing is getting engaged? To Shen Qingqing?”

Su Yu’s voice was suppressed with excitement as she clenched her fists tightly, nervously seeking confirmation from the woman.

【Oh my god, I’m finally going to break free!】

The system was also excited, 【That’s great, Host!】

In Mrs. Gu’s eyes, Su Yu appeared to be deeply affected, as if she was madly in love with Gu Yanqing and couldn’t accept this fact.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Gu suddenly hesitated.

Perhaps… perhaps she really just likes Yanqing.

Mrs. Gu’s tone softened a bit: “There are plenty of men in the world. If you lose Yanqing, there will be someone else. Miss Su is so beautiful, she won’t have trouble finding someone else. But money isn’t easy to come by, isn’t that right, Miss Su?”

In front of others, Mrs. Gu maintained the demeanor of a noblewoman from a prestigious family very well.

It was almost impossible to associate her with the woman who constantly called Su Yu a vixen over the phone.

Su Yu lowered her head, seemingly in contemplation.

In fact, she was almost bursting with laughter inside and couldn’t wait to leave right now.

If nothing else happens, once the male and female leads got engaged, the mission would be considered completed. Then, who would care about Gu Yanqing?

“I…” Su Yu finally gritted her teeth, “Okay, I agree, but I want the money first.”

Mrs. Gu smiled slowly, “Miss Su has made the right choice.”

She took out a pre-prepared check, “There is one million in this check. Miss Su, please check it. If there’s no problem, come with me. The plane tickets have already been bought. I hope I won’t see you again after today.”

Su Yu’s eyes lit up. This wasn’t an evil mother-in-law, she was practically a savior!

The villa’s servants nervously stepped forward, saying, “Madam, the master ordered that this young lady is not allowed to step out of the villa.”

Mrs. Gu frowned, “You don’t need to worry about this matter. I will talk to Yanqing.”

The servants hesitated. “But the master said that without his permission…”

“I’m his mother, can’t I handle him?”

Mrs. Gu insisted on taking Su Yu away, and the servants didn’t dare to stop her, not knowing what to do for a moment.

“Mom.”

Gu Yanqing’s voice suddenly sounded from outside the door.

When he heard that his mother had gone to Su Yu’s place, Gu Yanqing rushed back immediately. The ongoing meeting was paused, and all work was delayed, fearing that something might happen to Su Yu.

But he didn’t expect Su Yu to be so restless.

Looking at the nervous figure hiding behind his mother, Gu Yanqing’s voice was slightly stern, “Su Yu, come here.”
