Chapter 11 "Marrying a 90s Girlfriend"
system:……
It's really starting to break down.
The original intention of arranging a bankruptcy plot for the male lead was simply to give the female lead some sense of involvement, so that she wouldn't seem to have no role and just enjoy the male lead's wealth and luxury for nothing. Unexpectedly, it became a point for Ye Xiqing to humiliate the male lead.
The system felt a little uncomfortable. It was like in the animal kingdom, although hyenas have a high success rate in hunting and are considered successful, they are still often looked down upon by the general public in the animal world that admires the strong.
The reason is that even if the weak defeat the strong, if the methods used are too ugly and the results of their efforts do not match their strength, it will not make people feel satisfied; they will only feel indignant on behalf of the strong.
Harboring this resentment, the system said sarcastically, "So where will the host end up? Will he end up at the location originally set in the male lead's storyline?"
Ye Xiqing turned to look at the system, still with a deadpan expression, but her words were quite inspiring.
"Of course, I'm only 18 years old this year. Even if Lu Jing'an goes bankrupt, he'll only be 21. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Never underestimate a young man's potential'?"
system:……
Its heart was filled with sarcasm, but it still smiled as Ye Xiqing had hoped—
"Very good, host, you are very confident."
But in this world, small fortunes are made through hard work, while great fortunes are made through fate. It is said that one should not underestimate the potential of a young person, but in reality, only a very small number of people can reach the top.
Can the host really turn things around as she says?
It waits and sees.
...
Since making that bold statement, Ye Xiqing has been studying her wine day and night, but things haven't gone as planned. Three years have passed, and she is still stuck in a small town, while Miao Shuangshuang has become a sensation.
After its broadcast, "The Empress" quickly became a hit across the country due to its excellent production and dramatic plot.
In that era of scarce entertainment, countless TV stations broadcast the same content repeatedly, from morning to night, and almost everyone watched it several times. That's how Miao Shuangshuang entered the national public eye.
Although her role wasn't the most prominent, it was cleverly designed. She was not only the Queen's most beloved daughter, but she also played a part in the Queen's youth, which was very popular with the audience.
Her beauty, enhanced by the beauty pills, is unforgettable. After her portrayal of a spirited and passionate martial arts heroine, she quickly became everyone's dream goddess.
Nowadays, major TV dramas are vying to cast her as the female lead, offering her ever-increasing salary, and advertising contracts are pouring in like paper. In fact, you can even see her paintings hanging in every household.
She's always so busy, so when she gets home, she just collapses on the sofa, looking exhausted, and asks, "What do you want?"
The Miao family's house was finally built, but unlike the "five large tiled houses" that Ye Shiying had hoped for, it was a beautifully decorated two-story villa, designed entirely by Miao Shuangshuang according to the room design of later generations, and it would not be outdated even in a few years.
Now, Ye Xiqing and Ye Shimei, mother and daughter, also live there, but Miao Shuangshuang doesn't care, after all, she is now on a completely different level from these people.
Ye Xiqing transmigrated into a poor, leaky family. She thought she would have to suffer for several years, but unexpectedly, she was taken away by the vicious female supporting character in the second year.
Ye Xiqing, who couldn't bear any hardship, sat honestly on the opposite side of the sofa and said sincerely, "Shuangshuang, I want to borrow some money from you."
Miao Shuangshuang: ...
Um?
She wasn't shocked by Ye Xiqing borrowing money from her. After all, after so many years, the little conflict between her and Ye Xiqing had long since disappeared. Ye Xiqing was just a close relative from her maternal grandmother's side of the family.
In rural areas, it's common for relatives to ask you for money when they see you've become successful.
Her current situation is closely related to Ye Xiqing and her daughter. She is not so ungrateful as to pretend nothing happened, so it is reasonable for Ye Xiqing to ask her for money.
She was just annoyed. Why were so many people asking her for money today? Before Ye Xiqing asked her for money, Gu Pengfei had already asked her first.
To be honest, her relationship with Gu Pengfei has been rather troublesome over the years.
Originally, because of her precognitive perspective after her rebirth, she was extremely obedient to Gu Pengfei, treating him like a precious gem, afraid of scaring him or melting him.
But as her career improved and more and more people supported her, she unconsciously had a thought: Why does Gu Pengfei have such a high reputation?
She was already feeling resentful, but Gu Pengfei didn't seem to realize it. He continued to treat her the same way, either pointing fingers at her, making demands on her, or urging her to get married.
Her career is just starting out and is in full swing. Why is Gu Pengfei urging her to get married? Has he not considered her at all?
Moreover, once when she went to his house, she heard his father talking inside: "I see Shuangshuang hugging and kissing different men on TV every day. Isn't that inappropriate?"
"Why do all the members of the Gu family marry women like this..."
Her father's malice toward her was so obvious, yet Gu Pengfei sat to the side and didn't utter a single word!
Miao Shuangshuang has never had a good temper. She has been holding back for a long time because of the title of "future richest woman", but this time she couldn't hold back anymore!
He rushed in and started arguing fiercely with Gu Pengfei. In the heat of the argument, he smashed a lot of Gu's belongings.
After the argument, Miao Shuangshuang got in her car and drove away. She went straight to a film crew and stayed there for several months. In the end, it was Gu Pengfei who apologized to her first.
After the argument, Miao Shuangshuang actually regretted it a little. After all, apart from being the "future richest man," they had been dating for so many years and had developed some feelings for each other.
Seeing that Gu Pengfei had given in first, he immediately took the opportunity to back down.
It was at this time that the opportunity to borrow money arose—
"Shuangshuang, I know you're angry, but can you try to understand me? What man wouldn't be jealous when he sees his beloved woman being intimate with another man?"
"But I know it's not your fault. It's because I'm so useless that you have to go out and show your face in public."
"For you, for our family, I will work even harder in the future!"
"I've already quit my job at the school. I want to go south with my friends and try my luck."
"We've already found a project, but we don't have enough start-up capital. Shuangshuang, could you lend me 100,000 yuan first?"
Miao Shuangshuang recalled Gu Pengfei's words.
Originally, Gu Pengfei quitting his job meant he was about to start his "richest man" career, and she should have been happy and wholeheartedly supportive.
But she didn't.
The reason for this might be that she always thought of Gu Pengfei as someone who could marry her and live off her without working, but now he actually needs her to invest!
Didn't we agree to start from scratch? How can borrowing money from her be considered starting from scratch?
When he succeeds, will it be his achievement or hers?
If she's supporting herself, then what was the point of all her previous attempts to please Gu Pengfei?
While it's true that there's no such thing as a free lunch, and if you want to become the wife of a future billionaire, you should at least put in some effort, what's the point of reasoning with the villainous female supporting character?
Miao Shuangshuang felt very uncomfortable, so she didn't agree immediately. Instead, she used the excuse that she had just bought a car and was short of funds to ask him to wait.
Because she was in a bad mood, she went back to her hometown to escape the hustle and bustle, but unexpectedly, Ye Xiqing also asked her to borrow money.
He sat up straight and looked her up and down: "What do you need the money for?"
"Open a winery."
That's pretty much what she thought.
How much do you want to borrow?
"One hundred thousand."
"puff--"
What?
