Chapter 16: Brother who suddenly appears
"Eh? What are you doing?"
The driver had just parked the car when the passenger ran away inexplicably. He leaned his head out of the car window with a depressed look on his face and shouted in the direction of Qin Song, but Qin Song was too busy with his own affairs to pay any attention to him.
"...Psycho." He cursed with a stinky face, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
"Hey, no... Who are you and where are you taking me?" Qin Song passively followed the man and was frightened by his actions.
The man didn't answer her, but just kept walking forward with his head down. He was very strong, and the hand he held on Qin Song was like it was made of iron. No matter how Qin Song struggled and hit him, his hand did not move at all.
"What are you doing?" Qin Song was a little scared. The man's condition was a little strange. He might have been offended by the female supporting character in the past so he came to seek revenge on her.
"If you don't let go, I'll call for help." She refused to follow the man anymore. When she passed by a pillar, she hugged it with her hands and feet and stuck herself to it.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"Who am I?" The question made the man laugh. The man finally let go of Qin Song's hand, turned around and looked at her with a smile.
"Qin Song, you actually asked me who I am? It's only been a short time since you were kicked out of the Qin family. How could you forget about me so quickly?"
The Qin family...
When Qin Song heard these two words and looked up at the man's handsome and stern face, he instantly knew who he was.
Qin Wushuang, the eldest son of the Qin family and Qin Sisi's biological brother. He was also the female supporting character's biological brother, but he has disliked her since he was a child.
"It's you." Qin Song came down from the pillar, straightened his crooked hem, and spoke in a tone that didn't reveal his emotions. "Do you want to talk to me about something?"
"Of course there is something." Qin Wushuang looked at Qin Song, from her unmade-up face, to her simple and plain clothes, to the outdated brand-name bag in her hand.
"Although Pei Xingzhi has gone bankrupt, he still has some money left. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. He wouldn't let you live like this, would he?"
"Like this now?" Qin Song didn't understand what he meant. "How is this?"
"Shabby, downtrodden, and not presentable." Qin Wushuang said it bluntly and with full of malice.
Qin Song smiled indifferently: "Oh. So what do you want to talk to me about?"
Qin Wushuang avoided answering: "Qin Song, I thought you would live a glorious life after leaving the Qin family, but I didn't expect that it would be just like this. Look at yourself now, is it even one ten-thousandth of what you used to be?"
Qin Song didn't answer. She looked at the man in front of her calmly, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
Qin Wushuang continued, "You could have stayed in the Qin family and lived a life of ease and comfort, but you chose to kill yourself. Sisi is the real daughter of the Qin family. What are you thinking, a fake, to compete with her?"
"I fought so hard and got nothing in the end. Instead, I was kicked out of the Qin family and coaxed into marriage by a useless man like Pei Xingzhi. Is this what you wanted?"
"You are in your twenties, but you are still as brainless as when you were a kid."
Qin Wushuang belittled Qin Song skillfully, just like he had many times before.
Qin Song looked at him quietly, neither refutating nor admitting his mistake.
Although he understood the plot of the novel, Qin Song still had some parts he didn't understand. For example, why does Qin Wushuang hate the female supporting role so much?
Before her identity was exposed, the supporting actress was the undisputed jewel in the Qin family's crown. Everyone in the Qin family doted on her and loved her, except Qin Wushuang.
It was as if they were born incompatible. Ever since the female supporting character could remember, Qin Wushuang had never given her a good look, nor had he ever spoken to her in a nice tone.
He hates the supporting actress for no reason. Before Qin Sisi appeared, the supporting actress was relatively obedient and well-behaved. Although she was a little willful, her character was impeccable.
But Qin Wushuang just hated her. In front of her, Qin Wushuang often seemed more like an enemy than a brother.
Every time he saw the supporting female character, he had a cold face, and every time he spoke to her, he spoke in a sarcastic tone, even though she had done nothing wrong.
When the novel was serialized, many fans were discussing in the comment section where Qin Wushuang's hostility towards the female supporting character came from. Some people say that because the supporting female character is the second child, she took away half of the Qin family’s love when she was born, so Qin Wushuang doesn’t like her. Some people say that Qin Wushuang simply misogyny, others say that the author instructed Qin Wushuang to do so.
Various speculations filled the comment section, but the author never responded.
When Qin Song first read the novel, he was so busy cursing the male and female protagonists that he didn't pay any attention to this issue. When she traveled through time and became the supporting actress, she finally raised this question to the present moment.
So why does Qin Wushuang hate her? Is it really because of the second child? But he is obviously very nice to Qin Sisi.
That's misogyny?
"Qin Song, did you listen to me?"
Qin Wushuang suddenly raised his voice, startling Qin Song.
Qin Song suddenly came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry, I was distracted by mistake. What did you just say?"
Qin Wushuang's brows were twisted into a knot, and he glared at her fiercely: "I'm telling you, if you're willing to abort the evil child in your belly and divorce Pei Xingzhi, I'll help you."
"Why?" Qin Song didn't understand.
Qin Wushuang glared at her coldly. In addition to disgust, there were layers of forbearance and pain in his eyes that she could not understand.
"For the Qin family's reputation." Qin Wushuang's voice was as cold as ever. "Although you are a fake, you are from the Qin family anyway. You use the name given by the Qin family and do whatever you want outside. The people of Yuncheng will not only laugh at you, but also laugh at the Qin family."
"You have seriously affected the reputation of the Qin family. I have to do something for the Qin family."
"Is that so?" Qin Song nodded, expressing his understanding. "I didn't expect my name to have such a big influence. I'm sorry for causing trouble to the Qin family. In this case, I will go to the police station to change my name. From today on, I'm no longer Qin Song, I'm Zhang Song."
"As long as I don't take the Qin family's surname, the Qin family won't be implicated by me."
"Qin Song!" Qin Wushuang was angered by these words, and his already cold face suddenly became even colder. "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you so unwilling to abort Pei Xingzhi's child?"
Qin Song said firmly: "I don't want to. Pei Xingzhi is my husband, why should I abort his child?"
Qin Wushuang: "He's bankrupt, and you still recognize him as your husband?"
Qin Song: "Yes. His bankruptcy is only temporary. I believe he will stand up again."
"Qin Wushuang, you have disliked me since childhood. Isn't it just what you want if I don't live well? What do you mean by saying these things now?"
"I——" Qin Wushuang was rarely speechless. He stared at Qin Song, with an inexplicable anger burning in his eyes.
"Qin Song!" He suddenly took a step forward, grabbed Qin Song's shoulders fiercely, and said words that sounded like a reminder and a threat.
"You only have this one chance, don't force me to be ruthless!"
