Jiao Jiao said that this has never been a satisfying story. The system is useless, there are basically no cheat codes, and the rewards are equivalent to nothing.
Gou An deeply agreed with what the stupid system cat who could only meow and howl said.
But this not-so-bright pair of rich daughter and her stupid cat never realized that if they were willing to sit down and study the original work a little harder, instead of just saying "I'm too lazy to read it" when a certain character had the original work reading function turned on, their lives would actually be much easier.
——On major social media platforms, "predicting the future" and "reading your entire life in advance" have always been permanent options in the proposition of "I'm given a superpower, which one would you choose?"
In the logic of the system, Gou An, as the awakened female supporting character, was originally the only person who possessed this special right.
This is her priority.
However, once a character's friendship reaches zero, the system will directly weaken this priority. The way it weakens is that the character whose friendship reaches zero will know all the content about him in the original book.
This is totally messed up.
As we all know, the best outcome for the affectionate male supporting role who likes the heroine at the beginning is usually to never marry and to love the heroine forever but never be able to get her.
So here comes the question.
If it is a male supporting role in the original novel who is deeply in love with the heroine, such awakening of the original novel's memory can easily revive and continue his love...
He will know exactly what the evil female supporting character did.
He will be reborn and awakened with the still pure and strong love for the heroine until the end of the original work, and from then on, he will become the best helper of the heroine.
When Ye Lang found out that he was the supporting actor in a strange romance novel, he frowned and thought for about twenty seconds, then he relaxed and accepted the fact calmly.
It was like walking into an empty movie theater. He found a seat and sat down at random, watching his own life.
Ye Lang's real name is Ye Zhen. He is the youngest son of the fifth wife of the president of the Elite Club in City C across the sea.
In the 1970s, City C was known as the Las Vegas of the East. Ye Tong, the president of the Elite Club, operated several casinos, which, together with the casinos owned by the Chen and Huo families, formed a stable three-way balance of power...
Strictly speaking, the Ye family was considered a well-deserved wealthy family at that time.
Unfortunately, wherever there is interest, there will be struggle. Even though the Elite Club has a very rich Yakuza background and even has close ties with the Japanese Shimada Group, it still cannot withstand the collective attack from other local families...
Perhaps it was because running a casino caused too many people to lose their families and damaged their karma, that Ye Tong did not have a good end in his later years, ending up with his family broken up and his people destroyed.
The Ye family members died or dispersed, leaving only the fourth and fifth branches to survive, but their lives were even worse than those of ordinary people.
Ye Lang's last memory of the Ye family was when he was a child, sitting on his father's lap, stretching out his short arms to touch the playing cards for him, and listening to the terms of playing Texas Hold'em with a vague understanding. He knew what a straight flush was earlier than he learned arithmetic.
I remember that my father, who was no longer young, would laugh out loud at the cards he got and say to his friends: See, Ah Zhen is my successor.
Later, the Ye family broke up. Ye Zhen followed his mother across the sea to the mainland at a young age to escape his enemies and changed his name to Ye Lang.
Living in a dark alley, it was at that time that he met Lu Wan.
At first, I was unfamiliar with everything. It was a humid coastal city, and the cockroaches under the bed were so big that they made my scalp tingle.
Broken windows should be covered with newspapers and tape during a typhoon;
The door lock showed signs of being pried open every few days;
At night, there are no uniformed security guards patrolling the corridors...
Ye Lang felt like a human being again. It was on a certain New Year's Eve when a little girl from the neighbor's house handed him a sweet corn candy that smelled like cheap essence.
When Yelang was young, he had bad teeth and his family was reluctant to give him candy.
Although Ye Lang doesn't like sweets either.
But for some reason, the smell of that cheap essence could penetrate deeply into his mind. Because of this candy, the taciturn Ye Lang, who had long been tortured by the sudden changes in his life, finally had the first person who was willing to talk to him.
They went to school together and went home together. When she was in the third grade, she picked up a steel bar on the roadside for the first time and beat away a sixth-grade student who was always causing trouble in the alley.
Later, when I was in middle school,
People like them definitely don't have the money to go to private school, so one day Lu Wan said that he wanted to move to Zhaipu District, where the middle school district was not so bad. Ye Lang thought about it for a while and agreed to go with him.
As he grew older, Ye Lang remained taciturn, but his extremely tall height, his unrivaled skills in Zhaipu District, and his beautiful face that made him stand out even without any special dressing made him a celebrity in Zhaipu District. Lu Wan's academic performance was always very good. It could be said that in the past five years, he was the only one in the high school they attended who could pose a threat to the top students in the private middle school in the city rankings...
She works really hard.
When Lu Wan was in her first year of high school, Ye Lang had already graduated from high school. His mother was ill and could no longer go out to work, so Ye Lang stopped studying.
Perhaps what my father said back then, which had long since faded into memory, was right. He has the blood of the Ye family flowing in his veins.
Whether it's biting and snatching food in the alley like a wild dog, or dressing up like a human and taking a hundred dollars to the casino to exchange for ten thousand dollars...
If the Ye family were still there, he would surpass his older brothers and sisters and become the well-deserved successor.
It was from that time that the new Wild Dog Emperor, known to everyone, was born in the third district of the lower city of Jiangcheng.
When Lu Wan was about to graduate from high school, one Valentine's Day night, Lang picked her up from evening study and she stuffed him with a chocolate sold in the supermarket. Three pieces cost about ten yuan, which was considered a sky-high price at that time.
"Alan, I like you."
The girl with the schoolbag said.
Ye Lang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No."
The next day, Ye Lang's silent figure appeared in front of Lu Wan's school gate again, with the cheap tobacco in his hand sparking.
No one mentioned the girl's possessed confession in the dark alley the night before.
Ye Lang rejected Lu Wan without hesitation, without even giving a slightly warm reason.
But Lu Wan was still the only girl Ye Lang had ever been close to at that time, and they were childhood sweethearts, there was no doubt about that.
People always pay attention to returning to their roots.
As Yelang's mother's condition worsened year by year, she would always lean against the window on a sunny afternoon, gaze at a certain direction with deep affection as the sunlight came in a little bit -
That's the direction of home.
After much consideration, Ye Lang took out a down payment that was almost enough to buy a nice house in Jiangcheng, bought a boat ticket, and sent his mother back to City C, which had actually been peaceful for a long time, to live in the best sanatorium in City C, where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
"Alang, you're so rich, why don't you move out? You've been living in a shanty town. Tell me the truth, are you reluctant to leave Wanwan? Hahahahahahahaha?"
"..."
“It’s because I don’t have money.”
Nursing homes are very expensive, costing six figures starting with three digits every month.
So Ye Lang kept making money like crazy, but he was still very poor.
My mother was born in the last century and was not very receptive to modern communication tools, but every time she sent a few messages, she expressed her concern for Ye Lang.
When she was on vacation, she would cry at the wound on Yelang's face. Her hands were no longer as pampered and delicate as she remembered. She would hold his hand and say, "Alang, Mom can't be cured."
Of course, we cannot not treat the disease.
So when Ye Lang got a job opportunity that allowed him to live in the sun, he was quite happy.
Even though the job was just to be a bodyguard for the daughter of the Jiangcheng Gou family - a job that was totally unsuitable for his status in the Lower City at the time, he still gladly accepted it.
After all, Gou Yu was very generous and the salary he paid was really high, which could almost cover most of the basic expenses of the nursing home.
At the beginning, Ye Lang really hated Gou An.
This rich girl who would spend more than 20 minutes just fiddling with her hair before going out, habitually looked down on people, frowned and accepted the bodyguard thing, and her entire evaluation of him from beginning to end was, "He looks okay, Zhou Yutong would probably be jealous and go crazy."
The moment she turned her back, she missed the new bodyguard's expressionless face and the corner of his lip raised in mockery.
On her first day in office, Miss Gou made an appointment for afternoon tea with her sisters.
Ye Lang witnessed her using a steak knife to casually scratch the meat twice as if she hadn't eaten lunch. She threw the knife away with a look of boredom, called the restaurant manager, and said expressionlessly, "The beef is too old or the steak knife is too bad. You choose one."
Looking at the restaurant manager who was bowing frantically to apologize, Ye Lang thought to himself, this young lady is really a troublemaker.
For a long time, Ye Lang followed Gou An with little sense of presence.
The two of them were tied together for about twelve hours a day, but they usually spoke no more than three sentences.
The first conflict between Gou An and Lu Wan was something Ye Lang had not expected. Lu Wan found a temporary job, taking care of a rich lady's cat on a cruise ship.
Unfortunately, the cat died, and even more unfortunately, the "rich lady" turned out to be Gou An, who seemed to Ye Lang to have a lot of trouble. Gou An became furious and humiliated Lu Wan in public.
The role played by Ye Lang throughout the whole process was to reach out and catch the wine glass when Gou An poured the wine on Lu Wan's head and wanted to hit her with the wine glass.
“They’re watching.”
The bodyguard's slightly hoarse voice drew a cold glance from Gou An, and she did not continue to attack.
Afterwards, Gou An was called to the cabin by her parents, who comforted her and told her that she shouldn't be so impulsive, as she might be on the front page of the news tomorrow as "Rich daughter is unkind because of her wealth".
Gou An sat on the sofa with red eyes and said, "This is nothing. If it wasn't for Ye Lang, I would have wanted to hit her with a wine glass!"
"It's a good thing you didn't smash it. If you had hit your face, you could have just wait for the police to come and talk to you - have you thanked Ye Lang?" Gou Yu asked.
This was the second time Gou An turned to Ye Lang that day.
She rolled her eyes at him.
The seeds of Gou An's hatred for Lu Wan were sown from that day on. Everything developed naturally afterwards, and the next outbreak was another year's coming-of-age ceremony.
Although she will not appear as the protagonist this year, Gou An has already started choosing her favorite dress, just waiting to amaze everyone with her fiancé He Ran in the opening dance, an occasion that will attract everyone's attention.
But accidents always happen.
Miss Gou naturally thought that she would dance with her fiancé - of course, this was indeed the case according to the rules - but she never expected that the person He Ran invited was Lu Wan.
As fate would have it, the day Gou An found out about this happened to be when she was trying on dresses in a dress shop.
She was radiant in her dress, immersed in the flattery of the sisters in the Qianjin Group, unable to extricate herself, and the corners of her lips were so curled that you could hang an oil pot...
What a coincidence, He Ran brought Lu Wan here.
Coincidentally, the dress that He Ran customized for Lu Wan was also the one that Gou An was trying on.
The difference is that, because the young master of the He family helped, Lu Wan's dress was a modified version of a ready-made garment, with more delicate diamonds on the bow tie, and the tailoring was also completely based on Lu Wan's body shape...
Gou An was so overwhelmed by Yan that he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
At the same time, she found out that He Ran had no intention of inviting her to the coming-of-age ceremony banquet, and she became furious.
Of course He Ran didn't have the patience to go crazy and embarrass himself with her in the store, so he made up an excuse, "I have a phone call to take," and turned to leave the store. Gou An was so angry that he chased after him.
It was autumn in Jiangcheng, and autumn is always rainy... The dress shop was on the first floor, and outside was the main street. He Ran walked quickly in front, and Gou An followed quickly behind, but she forgot that she was wearing high heels used for trying on dresses in the store, and they didn't fit her feet at all.
She missed a step and felt a sharp pain in her ankle. She fell to the wet ground, looking so miserable that she no longer looked like the eldest daughter of the Gou family.
He Ran left without looking back.
When Gou An was trying to get up by herself, a pair of strong arms reached through her knees from behind and lifted her up easily.
Gou An squinted his eyes slightly and looked up through the hair wet by the rain, and saw the bodyguard's overly pale skin and tight jaw. He still had a blank face and was silent.
My wet face pressed against his hard chest, and I accidentally heard the steady heartbeat beneath his chest.
Her heart skipped a beat.
When Ye Lang put Gou An back in the car, she hissed because of the hit on her knee. So the bodyguard paused, stretched out his big hand and opened her knee to take a look. Dirty gravel was hanging on her knee, and it was bloody.
"It's bleeding."
"No matter what, I'm going to kill He Ran."
"To the hospital."
"No, go kill He Ran first."
“It will leave scars.”
"Okay, let's go to the hospital."
In the strange silence, Ye Lang always felt that he seemed to have grasped a little bit of the young lady's thinking logic.
He withdrew his hand that was supporting the back seat and was about to move back to the passenger seat to ask the driver to go to the hospital immediately, when his tie was grabbed.
The person who was forcibly dragged back looked down at Miss Gou, who had a blank expression on her face. "If you dare to tell anyone, I will fire you."
Ye Lang calmly moved away the hand that was pulling at his tie, thinking, you worry too much, who would be interested in your stupidity?
The biggest conflict between Gou An and Lu Wan... no, judging by the noise and scale, it should be called a war, which broke out on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony.
After the opening dance, there was of course no such innocent activity as the so-called borrowing game. Everyone gathered together and went into the bar without hesitation.
Gou An got the banned drugs from somewhere without anyone noticing and put them into Lu Wan's wine.
In Ye Lang's opinion, Miss Gou, who has always been not smart in some aspects, once again verified the bodyguard's personal impression. She herself was not very clear about what drug she had given her. When she realized that something was wrong with Lu Wan, she was shocked.
He couldn't keep it a secret any longer. He couldn't tell his parents because they would scold him until their necks broke. Gou An could only find the bodyguard to help him clean up his mess.
After the dress incident, their relationship eased a little. Gou An no longer treated Ye Lang as a transparent person. Occasionally, when shopping, she would hold up something and ask the person behind her on a whim, "Do you think it looks good?" Although she didn't get a response in half of the cases, in the rest of the cases, she would just mutter, "Forget it, you know nothing"...
Just when Gou An's trust in Ye Lang had reached the passing line, he saw what Mr. Bodyguard looked like when he was angry.
"I wonder what medicine you gave her?"
"..."
Just give the medicine, who cares about the type.
Miss Gou showed an expression of dissatisfaction in panic.
Ye Lang went forward to check on Lu Wan. In a daze, Lu Wan opened his eyes and saw Ye Lang's face. He smiled and moved his lips. Just as he was about to call him, Ye Lang suddenly turned around and glanced at Gou An behind him.
The latter looked back expressionlessly and puzzledly.
Ye Lang immediately judged that if Gou An knew that he and Lu Wan knew each other, he would probably have countless troubles in the future, and Gou An would be the one who took the initiative to cause trouble.
He immediately interrupted Lu Wan's words, brushed away her hand that was pulling his collar, and carried her sideways.
When avoiding the eyes and ears of others, Miss Gou followed behind him. In order to keep up with the pace of his long legs, she almost jumped and danced on the deck: "Send her to the lounge - ah ah ah, send her to my lounge, ordinary people don't dare to go in casually!"
Ye Lang was still angry about her behavior. The man of few words couldn't help but sneer, "You dare to give such a drug, shouldn't you be hoping that someone will come in casually?"
"You can't say that. I do have a little legal awareness." Gou An raised his hand and scratched his face. After a while, he probably remembered what he had done and added, "Although not much."
Ye Lang was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Lu Wan was put in Gou An's lounge. Lu Wan unzipped his dress. Ye Lang took a look and immediately turned his head away. Gou An pulled him and left the lounge as if escaping.
Back on the deck, Miss Gou shivered as the sea breeze blew.
Ye Lang looked at her shivering and remained indifferent.
Gou An tugged at his sleeve, his tone carrying an even more intimate tone than "accomplice": "Hey, do you understand? Give me your coat, it's cold."
Ye Lang then threw his coat at her face with a cold face, and his movement was not gentle. For the first time ever, she did not argue with him and pulled it off and put it on quickly.
Miss Gou was wrapped in his suit jacket, like a baby bird wrapped in a nest. Under the moonlight, Ye Lang watched the moonlight swaying, breaking, and then gathering again on the sea.
"Being indecisive, vicious but not vicious enough will cause you to suffer greatly in the future."
He said without warning.
"You farted."
He pulled his suit jacket closer, and there was no smell of cologne at all, only a faint scent of cheap nicotine mixture.
The rich young lady looked pale but still maintained her stubborn attitude.
"I am Gou An, who dares to let me suffer?"
He said the most harsh words and sneezed like a hairless quail.
Ye Lang knew that he should still be angry, but for some reason, he smiled.
