Quick Transmigration - After Betraying the Male Lead, the Supporting Female Character Gets Locked Up and Cries - Chapter 42

After seeing Bai Luo off, Qi Huaizhi apologized to Su Yu: “Sorry, I didn’t know it was her.”

Since the incident at the library, Qi Huaizhi had deliberately distanced himself from Bai Luo, but who could have predicted that she would suddenly show up today?

“It’s okay, we’re neighbors, and it’s normal to drop by for a visit. I’m not that petty,” Su Yu said understandingly.

“It’s just that I don’t like her attitude.”

Qi Huaizhi sighed helplessly: “Bai Luo is blunt, and she often speaks without thinking. I’ll pay more attention and we’ll try to avoid her in the future.”

Hearing this, Su Yu suddenly recalled her childhood at the orphanage, where the kids would form cliques, decide who to play with, and who to exclude, all with a strong sense of territorialism.

She couldn’t help but laugh: “Mhm!”

There wasn’t much to see in the room; you could take it all in at a glance.

It was tidy, clean, old, and poor.

Every corner left the same impression.

Not long after, Su Yu suddenly spoke up.

“Huaizhi, I might need to head back to my dorm.”

She frowned slightly, looking worried: “Manman went out to play but forgot her keys and is locked out of the dorm. I need to go back and let her in.”

Qi Huaizhi paused but said nothing, standing up slightly: “I’ll walk you.”

“No need, I know the way back. It’s getting late, your grandpa should be home soon. You should stay and keep him company.”

As she spoke, Su Yu grabbed her bag, her movements anxious, playing the part of a concerned friend and responsible roommate.

Seeing this, Qi Huaizhi could only say, “Then I’ll walk you downstairs.”

Soon, the room fell quiet, leaving behind the untouched tea and fruit on the table.

Su Yu’s disdain for the place was unmistakable—she didn’t even want to take a sip of tea.

Unaware of this, Qi Huaizhi remained immersed in the illusion of his kind and wonderful girlfriend.

On the subway, Su Yu found a corner to sit alone.

She lowered her eyes and glanced at the sparkling bracelet on her wrist, but what flashed in her mind was the image of a dimly lit corridor, the musty smell of some unknown liquid, the stains on the walls, a cramped room, and stacks of medicine boxes.

In the chat window, the conversation still lingered on Qi Huaizhi’s message reminding her to be careful on her way back and to let him know when she arrived at the dorm.

Disgusted, Su Yu shifted her gaze away and flipped her phone face down onto her lap with a loud snap.

After taking a few deep breaths, she responded expressionlessly.

—Got it~

—Rabbit nodding .jpg

Bai Luo was right; Su Yu was a hypocritical, selfish person. Once she confirmed Qi Huaizhi had no further value to her, she could abandon him without hesitation, despite all the good he had done for her.

Back at the dorm, Su Yu unlocked the door with a blank expression.

Zhao Manman indeed hadn’t brought her keys, but she wasn’t back at the dorm either. She had chosen to stay out and party all night.

Su Yu had lied earlier.

Both Jin Yueyao and Bai Luo were locals, and they went home for the weekend.

Right now, Su Yu was the only one in the dorm.

—Tomorrow at 10 AM, I’ll pick you up outside your dorm. Don’t forget.

Li Heng reminded her yet again.

—Okay.

Su Yu replied.

Looking at the two messages side by side, Su Yu stared blankly for a moment and decided that she would break up with Qi Huaizhi after tomorrow.

【Help me find some really harsh insults, the nastier the better. I want to give the male lead a breakup ceremony he’ll never forget, something that will make him hate me so much he’ll grit his teeth at the thought of me. Let’s see how he can still mess up the mission then.】

Su Yu had been traumatized by the last world.

Who would have thought that despite all she did, the male lead still wanted to be with her, even going as far as to play out a captivity scenario, preventing her from earning a single point?

The system, fully prepared, assured her: 【Don’t worry, Host. Leave it to me.】

That night, Su Yu nodded in satisfaction as she reviewed the resource pack sent by the system.

【Not bad, you’re somewhat useful after all.】

The system beamed with pride.

…

The next day, Su Yu got up an hour early.

Leisurely finishing her breakfast, she carefully applied a subtle, natural makeup, achieving a pure and gentle look. She wore a ladylike white dress that accentuated her slim waist.

Su Yu pressed her lips together, pleased with her appearance.

Suddenly, a commotion from downstairs interrupted her.

Su Yu froze, a bad feeling rising within her.

Walking to the window, she saw a flashy blue sports car parked outside the dorm. The driver’s side window was half down, and Li Heng was leaning out with one elbow, striking a flamboyant, cool pose.

Every passing student’s gaze was drawn to him.

Like a proud peacock, Li Heng showed no restraint and even retracted the roof, turning the car into a convertible, giving everyone a full 360-degree view of his showmanship.

Su Yu: “…”

She suddenly didn’t feel like going downstairs and embarrassing herself.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yu sent Li Heng a message.

—Wait for me outside the east gate of the school, or I’m not coming.

Li Heng saw it and clicked his tongue.

Another message came through.

—You have three minutes.

Annoyed, Li Heng had chosen his favorite car, the coolest one, just to give Su Yu a surprise.

The east gate was deserted—who would even see them there?

—Two minutes left.

Li Heng: “…”

Fine, he was scared of her. What could he do? He liked her, after all.

With a roar, the flashy blue sports car sped away, leaving a trail of exhaust behind, as if it had only come to make a quick appearance.

He was totally ridiculous.

Only then did Su Yu slowly head downstairs.

Not everyone could be like Li Heng, no, he was on another level of social boldness—more like social absurdity.

The meal location was at a high-end private dining restaurant, though calling it a restaurant didn’t do it justice; it was more like a luxury hotel.

The decor was elegant and traditional, the service natural and comfortable, with sweet-smiling attendants. Every detail conveyed one message—this place was expensive.

Su Yu had never been to such a place before, and instinctively drew closer to Li Heng, nervously clutching his sleeve.

She whispered, “Isn’t this place really expensive? I’ve never been to a place like this. Will I embarrass you?”

Feeling the warmth of her body close to his, and imagining the soft touch of her hand, Li Heng’s heart fluttered, and he practically floated as he walked.

“No way, you’re perfect no matter what. With me here, no one would dare to bully you—they’d have to step over my dead body first!” he declared, dizzy with affection.

Su Yu: “…” That’s really not necessary.

Su Yu couldn’t bear to look directly at him and turned her face away. She almost couldn’t continue acting.

Meanwhile, inside the private room, three people sat restlessly.

A refined middle-aged man held his wife in his arms, trying to comfort her, “We’ve come this far after all these years. A little longer won’t hurt. Don’t get too excited and scare the child.”

“How can I not be excited?”

The woman couldn’t stop her tears: “Who knows how our daughter has been living all these years. It’s all our fault for letting her suffer for so long.”

Su Jingyu kept his head down, lost in thought.

Under the table, his hands were clenched tightly, his heart racing, all his attention focused on the door.

Su Rong’an gently patted his wife’s back to comfort her.

At that moment, the tightly closed door was pushed open from outside.

The three of them looked over at once, their eyes filled with emotion.

What they saw was a tall… man?

Li Heng stood in front of the petite woman, shielding her entirely, not a single strand of hair exposed, playing the role of protector.

“…”

Sometimes people just can’t hide the look in their eyes when they want to stab someone.
