Chapter 2: Marrying a 90s Girlfriend
The system listened blankly to Ye Xiqing's astonishing words, as if it were listening to an alien language.
Don't normal people think that the female supporting character is a jinx, and whoever marries her will be unlucky, while the female lead is a lucky charm for her husband, and whoever marries her will be a lucky husband? What exactly is Ye Xiqing saying!
The system was so shocked that it was speechless, but Ye Xiqing, the person involved, remained very calm.
It wasn't that she couldn't understand the system's subtext, nor that she didn't know the answer the system wanted, but the system made a huge mistake: the Ye Xiqing it had carefully selected was only 18 years old this year.
As a digital life form, it had no idea how sensitive and easily angered a girl who had just turned 18 could be.
Even if the system were to dote on her in every way, it might not be able to gain her approval, let alone use such a playful, frivolous, and seductive attitude to say things that sound like they're meant to fool a fool.
So Ye Xiqing only glanced at the system before letting out a cold laugh. The malice in her heart didn't need to be dug out; it had already flowed out from the tip of her tongue like venom.
Isn't that so?
"According to what you said, Lu Jing'an clearly went bankrupt in his previous life, making him the unlucky number one without a doubt. Gu Pengfei would also be visibly finished without me, making him the unlucky number two without a doubt."
"Even if you haven't learned about the law of conservation of matter, you should have learned about controlling variables."
"We know that those two men were unlucky their whole lives without any external factors, but they became incredibly lucky after marrying me. So whose luck is it? It can't be the consistently unlucky, vicious female supporting character, can it?"
"Why do these two unlucky guys have to appear in my wish-fulfillment novel's female lead script? You're a wish-fulfillment novel system, and you even have your female lead share her luck with two unlucky guys. Is that satisfying? Do you deserve it?"
system:…………
It had always been the one who looked down on its host in its heart, and this was the first time it had been asked by the host it despised whether it was worthy...
The system took a long time to find its own voice.
The infuriating mockery in its tone finally subsided somewhat, and after a moment's thought, it immediately understood the crux of the matter.
"Host, I apologize first. Perhaps my previous judgments were a bit unpleasant to you, which caused you to become rebellious towards me."
"But please believe me, as an assistant who needs to be tied to you in the long run, I have no ill intentions towards you."
The system then forcibly redirected Ye Xiqing's gaze toward Lu Jing'an.
"Now please calm down and take a closer look at this man. He's not as bad as he seems, is he?"
"Lu Jing'an in the story background is from Miao Shuangshuang's perspective. People never think that they are the ones who are wrong, so from Miao Shuangshuang's eyes, all she can see is Lu Jing'an's despicable behavior."
"But in fact, Lu Jing'an already possesses more assets than most people in this world, whether it is family background or appearance."
"In her previous life, the female lead married Gu Pengfei and sacrificed so much for him. She worked hard to enjoy the fruits of her labor. But when she married Lu Jing'an, she was able to achieve everything in one step."
"The crisis facing the Lu family is not actually that difficult to resolve. With just a little reminder, you can change the fate of the Lu family's decline."
"Even if the Lu family really goes bankrupt, it would be much easier to make a comeback with Lu Jing'an than to start from scratch with Gu Pengfei. It doesn't mean that he's absorbing your luck at all."
"You don't have to do anything. Just a little tweaking and a different choice, and you can enjoy the shade of a mature tree. Isn't that wonderful!"
"Don't make a decision you'll regret just because you're arguing with me!"
oh?
Under the system's manipulation, Ye Xiqing couldn't help but look at Lu Jing'an.
Lu Jing'an also noticed her gaze, raised an eyebrow and remained silent, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
News in the village is never kept secret. The fact that two girls from the Miao widow's family were being courted by two different families spread like wildfire throughout the village, attracting quite a few onlookers.
At first, no one was surprised when Miao Shuangshuang married into the Lu family and Ye Xiqing married into the Gu family.
After all, no matter how close a niece is, she can't be as close as a biological daughter.
When it comes to trivial matters, Widow Miao can still maintain a semblance of fairness and impartiality. But when it comes to such a major event as marriage, how could she not fight for her own daughter's interests?
Although Gu Pengfei is also a college student with a good job, he is far inferior to the three sons of the Lu family.
Everyone was enjoying this gossip, but no one expected such a stunning reversal!
Everyone stared wide-eyed as they watched Miao's niece walk step by step toward the third son of the Lu family.
No way...
Miao Shuangshuang certainly saw Ye Xiqing's actions, but she wasn't displeased at all; in fact, this was exactly what she wanted.
Otherwise, she could have simply married someone else secretly after her rebirth; why make such a big fuss?
She wanted to provoke Ye Xiqing into marrying Lu Jing'an; she just didn't want Ye Xiqing to have a good life.
What's there to be happy about if it's just one person's success? She wants Ye Xiqing to taste the pain she suffered in her past life. She wants to prove that Ye Xiqing can never compare to her!
Miao Shuangshuang watched with malice as Ye Xiqing approached Lu Jing'an, and everyone was eagerly anticipating what would happen next.
The system is no longer being installed; before, it only vaguely guided Ye Xiqing to make choices, but now it directly recommends Lu Jing'an.
Amidst this intense anticipation, Ye Xiqing, following everyone's wishes, walked up to Lu Jing'an, looked him up and down, and then let out a cold laugh.
"If you're very powerful, then completely control how I proceed with the storyline; if you can't—"
Ye Xiqing turned away from Lu Jing'an's shoulder, ignoring everyone else, and only gave Miao Shuangshuang a nonchalant look as an answer.
"Whatever you like."
