Quick Transmigration - After Betraying the Male Lead, the Supporting Female Character Gets Locked Up and Cries - Chapter 28

Su Yu shook her head in panic, clutching Mrs. Gu’s arm tightly, “Auntie, I’ve already agreed to you, I won’t go back on my word, but you must take me away.”

“Su Yu.” Gu Yanqing’s voice turned colder.

Su Yu was like an eagle catching the chicks among the chickens. She hugged Mrs. Gu’s arm tightly, for fear of being snatched away by Gu Yanqing, the eagle.

Seeing this, Gu Yanqing took a deep breath and turned to his mother: “Mom, let Su Yu go back to her room first. We’ll talk in the study.”

Su Yu immediately looked at Mrs. Gu, praying inwardly that she wouldn’t agree.

One minute later…

Su Yu was pulled back to her room by Gu Yanqing, looking bewildered.

No, Auntie, what about your arrogant attitude just now? What about a decisive attitude? How could you be so unsure!

“Stay good and wait for me to come back.” The man gave her a warning look, then turned and left, closing the door tightly.

The lock clicked softly, as if it was being locked from the outside.

Su Yu rushed to the door and tried to turn the handle, but it wouldn’t budge.

She pounded on the door, “Gu Yanqing, let me out! What do you mean, Gu Yanqing? You’re getting engaged and you’re locking me here. What on earth do you want?”

There was only silence in response.

Su Yu’s hands hurt from knocking, and finally, she sluggishly returned to the bed, pulled the covers over herself, and laughed so hard that her whole body trembled.

【Finally, the male lead has come to his senses. It’s not easy at all. System, quickly check if the progress bar for the task is about to complete.】

The system was also happy, smiling as it brought up the task progress bar, but then it froze.

No progress at all. 

It had been stuck at fifty percent since dumping the male lead, as if it had taken root and sprouted, not moving at all.

There must be a program malfunction.

The system suspected a program malfunction but didn’t suspect Su Yu at all.

While frantically reporting to the Quick Transmigration Bureau, it awkwardly replied to Su Yu, 【It’s almost done, maybe the task will end after the male lead gets engaged.】

Su Yu was in an extremely good mood. She was smiling happily while hiding under the covers. She even started humming a song, but the tune was off-key.

Half an hour later…

Gu Yanqing put in effort to see his mother off, then rubbed his temples with a headache.

Not only did his mother not understand, he didn’t understand either.

Letting Su Yu go, he couldn’t bear it, nor could he convince himself.

But being with her…

He caught sight of his phone on the corner of the table and hesitated for a moment before reaching out and picking it up.

There were overwhelming news notifications on it, all about the current CEO of the Gu Group getting engaged next month.

Looking at these exaggerated reports, Gu Yanqing remained expressionless.

He calmly brought up a interface, which was the surveillance feed from Su Yu’s bedroom.

In the surveillance footage, Gu Yanqing didn’t see Su Yu at first. He suddenly stood up, then noticed a lump under the covers on the bed. A pair of fair and delicate feet emerged from the lump, and only then did he calm down.

The covers trembled slightly. Was Su Yu crying?

Gu Yanqing, with his long and slender fingers, tapped rhythmically on the table, making a rhythmic sound.

His face was calm to the point of being cold, and no one knew what he was thinking, whether he felt sorry, or felt uncomfortable.

A few minutes later, Su Yu crawled out from under the covers, dragging a bag of chips with her. She was still munching on them.

Seeing this scene through the surveillance, Gu Yanqing was momentarily stunned, his expression difficult to describe. The tenderness that had just arisen was instantly replaced by speechlessness.

After a moment, he suddenly smiled.

There was nothing to be surprised about. He had known for a long time that Su Yu was a heartless woman. He couldn’t expect her to cry. Apart from putting on an act, the only way to make her cry is to act ruthless in bed.

After the moment of happiness, Su Yu anxiously awaited the outcome.

She didn’t know if the male lead’s mother could successfully convince him to let her go. Turning anxiety into appetite, Su Yu crunched on her chips.

At that moment, there was a noise outside the door.

Su Yu immediately looked up.

The door opened, and Gu Yanqing walked in slowly against the light, his silhouette deep and his expression unclear.

Su Yu’s gaze cautiously passed over him and looked outside the door.

“No need to look, Mother has already gone back,” Gu Yanqing said.

Su Yu froze.

She quickly climbed onto the bed, hugged the covers to protect herself, and curled up in the corner, her voice nervous and trembling, “Brother Yanqing, I was wrong.”

Gu Yanqing almost laughed out loud, feeling some of his anger dissipate.

It was the first time he had seen someone back down so quickly.

Intentionally keeping a stern face, he asked, “What did you do wrong?”

Su Yu swallowed nervously, “I… I shouldn’t have thought about running away.”

Gu Yanqing walked over slowly, sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to Su Yu, “Come here.”

Su Yu felt as if she saw a monster beckoning to her, with its mouth wide open, saying, “Come here, let me devour you.”

She closed her eyes and shivered, cautiously moving closer while hugging the covers.

The man stretched out his strong arms, pulled Su Yu over, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly.

“No, you were wrong not to think about leaving me,” Gu Yanqing said firmly.

Su Yu was full of question marks, “???”

What’s the difference?

The man’s actions were dominant and powerful. He looked down at her, his eyes dark and deep, making her tremble to the core, “Su Yu, don’t think about leaving me.”

Su Yu’s eyelashes trembled, “But you’re about to get engaged.”

Her voice was as soft and helpless as before, filled with grievance and fear, “Are you going to keep me locked up here forever, as a mistress that can’t see the light of day?”

She shook her head as she cried, “But I don’t want to. I don’t want to be a mistress, I don’t want to be a mistress, and and I don’t want my future child to be a shameless illegitimate one.”

“I really know I was wrong. If you’re angry, you can hit me, but please don’t keep me here. Let me go, please, Brother Yanqing. I promise I will never appear in front of you and Shen Qingqing again.”

Su Yu’s voice sounded aggrieved with a hint of tears, “I just made a mistake, it’s not like I committed a heinous crime. Why do you have to treat me like this?”

Gu Yanqing’s expression darkened slightly, his voice as cold as snowstorm, “Su Yu, do you remember what I just said?”

“Don’t think about leaving me,” he closed his eyes for a moment, “As for the engagement, it’s none of your business, and…”

“Not every mistake can be forgiven,” he murmured softly.

At least he wasn’t willing to forgive.

…..

In the next few days, Gu Yanqing monitored Su Yu even more strictly, taking her with him whenever he went to the company to prevent what happened that day from happening again.

After Su Yu cried and fussed for a while without any effect, she seemed to have learned her lesson.

Gu Yanqing worked on documents in the office while she obediently slept in the lounge, quiet and peaceful, not causing any trouble.

Her beautiful fox-like eyes blinked tiredly, looking droopy, which softened people’s hearts.

The system encouraged her, 【Hang in there, Host. In another half month, the male and female leads will be engaged, and then you can leave.】

Su Yu sighed, only able to hope for a successful engagement half a month later.

She just didn’t know why, but she had a bad premonition in her heart. This premonition came very suddenly and inexplicably. It was commonly known as a woman’s sixth sense.

Su Yu quickly shook her head to get rid of this thought.

She woke up hungry after her nap.

Su Yu rubbed her stomach and decided to go out to find some food.

As she reached for the doorknob, she heard voices from the office outside, causing her to pause.

“Brother Yanqing, Aunt Gu said you haven’t been eating well these days, so she asked me to bring the home-cooked food and make sure you eat it all properly,” Shen Qingqing’s lively and playful voice reached Su Yu’s ears.

The female lead was bringing food to the male lead?

Su Yu lowered her gaze, pondering in silence.

The system thought she was feeling upset, understandably so since she had shared a bed with the man for a long time and now suddenly he was with another woman.

It was about to console her when…

Su Yu lifted her head, her voice excited, “The female lead is so smart. It seems like I’ll be able to get rid of this man soon!”

The system: 【…】

It had worried too much.
