Chapter 2 The devoted female supporting character doesn't deserve the scumbag male supporting character.
Chapter 2
Qi Yu's voice wasn't loud, and Qin Yan's voice wasn't exactly quiet either.
The voice, neither too loud nor too soft, reached Xie Lin's ears.
I never expected that I would not only be ignored, but also insulted like a dog.
Xie Lin chuckled in exasperation, his eyes slightly upturned as he watched Qin Yan's figure gradually disappear into the distance.
very good.
[Ding! Male protagonist's desire to conquer +1]
[System detected that you have deviated from an important plot point. The backend has been repaired. You will encounter Xie Lin and give him the cake you are holding.]
Qin Yan frowned.
Given that she had never failed a mission before, she was puzzled by the disobedience to system instructions.
Is this forcing her to complete the task 100%?
She clearly heard from her colleagues that failing to complete the mission according to regulations could result in the world line ending early with a mission failure score.
Something seems off.
After the two entered the classroom, Qi Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yanyan, you really scared me to death just now! You dared to say such things, thankfully Xie Lin didn't hear it..."
She patted her chest in lingering fear.
"He heard it," Qin Yan said softly.
"Oh, he heard me." Qi Yu repeated calmly, then suddenly turned her head and looked at Qin Yan, who still had a calm expression, with horror. "Yan Yan, wait, what did you say?"
Qin Yan repeated patiently, "He heard it, very clearly."
Qi Yu: "..." Help me, help me.
Is it too late to transfer schools now?
"Then what do you..." Qi Yu swallowed hard.
Qin Yan frowned seriously.
It's indeed a bit difficult.
She genuinely hadn't expected the system notification "Conquest Desire Increased by One." It was unbelievable and incomprehensible; Xie Lin must be an idiot.
This undoubtedly thwarted her plans.
She raised her eyebrows and comforted Qi Yu, who seemed to have gotten herself into a big mess: "It's okay, we can just ignore him from now on. So many people like him, he won't remember someone as humble and insignificant as me."
Qi Yu felt completely uncomforted.
When a stunningly beautiful woman from a prominent family told her that she was humble and insignificant, Qi Yu felt her heart skip a beat.
As soon as the school bell rang, Qi Yu pulled Qin Yan to go to the cafeteria for lunch and urged her to bring the cake as dessert.
Qin Yan hesitated for a moment but still brought the cake. The cake wasn't very big, and with Qi Yu's eating ability, she could finish it off.
The two strolled leisurely down the corridor, and by sheer coincidence, Xie Lin was walking towards them just a hundred meters away.
A petite girl was hanging on his arm, swaying back and forth, her smile bright and content.
Qi Yu was utterly shocked: "...Scumbag!"
Just a few hours ago, he said he could agree to be Qin Yan's boyfriend!
Pooh!
Qin Yan looked at the scene in the distance and fell silent.
Sure enough, we bumped into each other, and she was carrying a cake in her hand.
[Ding! Task node triggered. Please deliver the cake to Xie Lin as soon as possible.]
Qin Yan looked indifferently at Xie Lin, who had a cold and impatient expression. Xie Lin happened to notice her presence as well, and his cold eyes gradually became hot, as if he had found his prey.
The petite girl also noticed that Xie Lin's attention was being diverted. Following his gaze, she saw Qin Yan carrying the cake and said knowingly, "It's her again. You've scolded her so many times, how can she still shamelessly bring it up again and again? She's really despicable."
The girl grinned and, taking advantage of Xie Lin's doting affection, recklessly mocked Qin Yan.
She thought Xie Lin thought the same way, since that's exactly what Xie Lin did, intending to get closer and show off in front of Qin Yan, but she didn't expect to hear Xie Lin's cold voice in her ear the next second.
"roll."
The girl thought she had misheard and looked up at Xie Lin in a panic, somewhat at a loss: "...Lin?"
She was a little scared, but still forced a smile: "What are you suddenly saying?"
"Let go of my hand," Xie Lin said, his head bowed, his gaze as cold as ice. "Get out."
The girl hurriedly said, "Ah Lin, what's wrong... Did I say something wrong? Tell me, I... I'll change..."
As she spoke, her voice trembled with tears.
Xie Lin impatiently pulled his arm out of the girl's embrace, ignoring the girl beside him who was crying.
Qi Yu was deeply shocked: "...This guy is truly a scumbag."
She had only heard rumors about Xie Lin's romantic escapades and had never witnessed his ruthlessness firsthand.
Even when I accompanied Qin Yan to deliver the cake, I only witnessed Xie Lin's sharp tongue. I never imagined that his attitude towards girls could be this bad.
They were inseparable just a second ago.
Although the girl's gaze was not friendly, we should still observe a moment of silence for this poor girl.
Why did she have to choose Xie Lin of all men?
Qi Yu was a total coward. Seeing Xie Lin approaching step by step, she silently took several steps back and cowered behind Qin Yan, tightly clutching a piece of Qin Yan's clothes.
She didn't want to face the vicious school bully at all.
Qin Yan neither moved forward nor backward.
She lowered her head slightly, seemingly hesitant.
Xie Lin, looking rather nonchalant, strode confidently to Qin Yan and looked down at the girl in front of him.
Her long, smooth black hair cascaded down, making her already small face appear even smaller, and the black hair covered her alluring, fair, and slender neck.
Xie Lin laughed, but it was just a superficial laugh. His eyes were fixed on Qin Yan with an undeniable heat: "Playing hard to get is a one-time thing. I don't have that much patience."
He was willing to give her another chance.
For the sake of her being Qin Ye's fiancée.
Qin Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly, then she slowly raised her head, her delicate, harmless face showing apology: "Xie Lin, you've misunderstood."
Xie Lin's heart skipped a beat.
"This cake was specially made for Qin Ye."
Qi Yu, hiding behind Qin Yan: "..." When did this happen? How come she didn't know?
No, what does this have to do with Qin Ye?
Xie Lin's expression froze for a moment, then his entire face turned gloomy.
Qin Yan didn't care about Xie Lin's feelings. She pulled Qi Yu out from behind her and walked past Xie Lin to continue forward.
[Ding! Male protagonist's desire to conquer +1]
Qin Yan paused, then said, "..."
uh-huh?
Xie Lin probably has that serious illness.
So, is it true that what you can't have always stirs your heart?
[The plot has deviated from its normal course. The system will be fixing it. Please wait for the next mission release and complete the mission with caution.]
Ever since her retirement application was rejected, Qin Yan has given up on completing her missions properly.
She doesn't care how the plot unfolds, as long as it doesn't follow the storyline.
That scumbag doesn't deserve it.
Qi Yu grabbed Qin Yan's arm, turning back every few steps, both scared and curious. Fortunately, Xie Lin did not turn around and remained standing there, seemingly lost in thought.
Qi Yu was no longer afraid of meeting those deathly gazes.
"Yanyan," Qi Yu finally realized she was about to torture Xie Lin after he had completely disappeared from sight. "Tell me, what's going on with Qin Ye?"
She launched into a tirade: "Back then, when I was making cakes, he kept talking about Xie Lin. Before the cakes were even finished, he said he didn't like Xie Lin anymore. Before I could even process what was happening, another one, Qin Ye, popped up."
"You have to explain this to me right now, what exactly is going on?" She grinned. "Yanyan, when did you become such a fickle woman!"
"And another thing," she asked, giving Qin Yan no chance to speak, "Are you really going to give this cake to Qin Ye?"
Although that guy wasn't as notorious for his tyranny as Xie Lin, he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
She has a cold personality and is difficult to get along with. Her sharp eyes can send chills down anyone's spine.
"It's true that I don't like Xie Lin," Qin Yan answered one by one.
"I'm not fickle, it means I've figured it out, and that scumbags don't deserve me."
Although Qi Yu didn't completely believe it, she didn't dwell on those issues; her focus was now on something else—
"What about Qin Ye? What happened to him?"
"ah."
Qin Yan softly uttered an onomatopoeic word, a faint smile playing on her lips, "He is my fiancé starting today."
Qi Yu stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "...!!!"
Qin Yan's tone was still as gentle as usual, but Qi Yu could clearly sense a hint of excitement in it: "I have to keep to my duty as a fiancée and can't go around flirting with other women."
Qi Yu: "..."
It would be a miracle if she believed it.
"Bringing Qin Ye into this is to let Xie Lin know that I really can't have anything to do with him anymore. This cake is naturally for you, Xiaoyu."
She was confused about the first part, but Qi Yu understood the last sentence.
The translation is: Xiaoyu, the person I love most is actually you.
Qi Yu immediately became happy.
No wonder she went through so much trouble to rescue the flowers from pig manure.
The two entered the restaurant hand in hand, unaware that several pairs of eyes were fixed on them from outside the window.
"Brother Ye, is that your fiancée? She's a real beauty."
"Don't mention those three words, Ye-ge is angry. That woman's heart and eyes are full of that bastard Xie Lin, it's bad luck."
"Look at the box of cake she's carrying, she's definitely taking it to Xie Lin again."
"Don't mention it again!" The boy pretended to chase after the other boy who was being sarcastic.
The person at the center of the conversation leaned against a tree trunk, his obsidian-black eyes lingering on Qin Yan's profile for only half a second before moving away.
It was as if everything they were talking about had nothing to do with him, whether it was Qin Yan or Xie Lin.
"Let's eat." Qin Ye straightened up and stuffed the motorcycle keys into his pocket.
"Hmm? Have you decided where to eat? Skewers or hot pot? I'm definitely going to drink beer." Li Jun rushed over.
Wang Yue slapped Li Jun on the back of the head: "Drinking, drinking, all you know is drinking. Aren't you going to evening self-study?"
The two started fighting again.
After the fight, the two belatedly realized that they were going in the wrong direction.
Li Jun looked confused: "Brother Ye, this isn't the way to the main gate."
"Um."
Qin Ye was extremely sparing with his words.
"Eat in the canteen."
