The Awakened Cannon Fodder Beauty [Quick Transmigration] 81p2

Chapter 81p2: The Vicious Supporting Female Character in a Romance Novel (34)

The sound of the rain outside was getting more and more urgent, almost as if it would shatter the glass. The pouring rain blurred the scene outside the car window. Jiang Mengyu’s field of vision was only Gu Lanqiu’s beautiful and mature face.

She curled her fingers and did not move.

“Why aren’t you doing anything?” Gu Lanqiu’s eyes were still scarlet, and her vision was hazy.

Jiang Mengyu averted her eyes. “I don’t have such a special hobby.”

In a daze, Gu Lanqiu remembered that before, when Jiang Mengyu had tried to appease her, she had specially tied her own wrists. At that time, looking at the Jiang Mengyu who was curled up at her bedroom door, she had also said the same thing.

The dull pain in her heart became more and more obvious. Gu Lanqiu was not willing to give up. She tried to find any deliberate traces on Jiang Mengyu’s face, but the other party just let her size her up quietly, her slightly lowered eyelids full of indifference.

The words she had casually said back then had now become a sharp blade that stabbed at her.

“There are still your things in North Garden,” Gu Lanqiu let go of her hand, lost in thought. “You don’t want them all?”

“Throw them away.”

Gu Lanqiu’s breath hitched. “What about this cat?”

The kitten had already climbed onto Jiang Mengyu’s lap and was licking its paws without any awareness. It liked the scent on Jiang Mengyu’s body, and its posture was clearly more relaxed than before.

“Throw it away too?”

Jiang Mengyu looked down and casually flicked the kitten’s ear with her fingertip. “What’s its name?”

“What do you think?”

Gu Lanqiu stared at Jiang Mengyu. “You gave it its name.”

Jiang Mengyu thought for a moment. “Is its name Jin Xue?”

Gu Lanqiu was stunned. After a long while, she finally asked in a hoarse voice, “Why?”

“I don’t know,” Jiang Mengyu’s expression showed no flaws. “It just suddenly came to mind.”

But Gu Lanqiu could not come back to her senses for a long time.

Perhaps Jiang Mengyu just felt that the kitten’s fur was golden and also white, which was why she had thought of this name.

But in fact, Jin Xue had another explanation, which referred to osmanthus, a flower that only bloomed in autumn.

Gu Lanqiu did not speak for a long time.

Jiang Mengyu withdrew her hand from petting the cat. “You can do whatever you want with it.”

“You can give it away or throw it away.”

She clearly knew that Gu Lanqiu did not like this cat very much, but she was still ruthless and unwilling to take it away.

Gu Lanqiu looked at the coldness in Jiang Mengyu’s eyes and finally completely believed that she really did not care.

Although Gu Lanqiu had always been resentful of the name “Loose,” she actually knew very well in her heart what this name meant to Jiang Mengyu.

Jiang Mengyu had even changed the cat’s name.

Gu Lanqiu pressed her lips together tightly, her pale face with a lost and lonely look.

Jiang Mengyu was now impervious to reason. No matter what she said to her, she was unwilling to believe it.

How could she make Jiang Mengyu let down her guard against her?

Just as the two of them were in a silent stalemate, the car window was unexpectedly knocked on from the outside. The dull sound instantly woke up the two of them.

Jiang Mengyu reached out and pushed the kitten on her lap away. “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first.”

Gu Lanqiu watched as she reached out and opened the car door. A cold wind, accompanied by raindrops, blew in, and the temperature in the car instantly dropped to its lowest.

The cold wind blew Gu Lanqiu’s long hair, and her face was bloodless, without a single trace of light in her eyes.

The kitten on the seat had not yet recovered. It raised its head and meowed at Jiang Mengyu.

Jiang Mengyu first opened the umbrella in her hand, and then she saw that Zhou Xinying was standing a few steps away from her, looking at her with an unreadable expression.

It was she who had knocked on the car window just now.

Jiang Mengyu glanced back at Gu Lanqiu without a trace. She closed the car door behind her, but she did not move.

Jiang Mengyu’s figure blocked the situation in the car. Zhou Xinying could not see Gu Lanqiu’s pathetic appearance at this moment, but she guessed that the two of them had most likely had a very unpleasant talk.

Gu Lanqiu was too proud. She always thought that she was omnipotent. But Jiang Mengyu just happened to not fall for the forceful approach.

The reason why the two of them could be together before was because Jiang Mengyu was willing to compromise with her.

As for now?

Zhou Xinying curled her lip. “Aunt Wang said she saw you go out alone. I was a little worried, so I came to see.”

“Mmm,” Jiang Mengyu replied casually.

Zhou Xinying seemed to have heard a meow, tender and weak.

She was not sure if she had misheard.

“Biscuit is already home and is eating now.”

Zhou Xinying looked at Jiang Mengyu without blinking. “You haven’t seen it in a long time. Don’t you want to see what it looks like now?”

Although she saw that Jiang Mengyu’s performance at this moment did not seem like she was going to leave with Gu Lanqiu, what if?

Jiang Mengyu did not look back again. “Let’s go.”

The rain was too heavy, and her pants were already half wet.

Jiang Mengyu took the lead and walked toward the villa. She passed by Zhou Xinying with a calm expression. The moment they brushed past each other, Zhou Xinying seemed to have smelled a faint scent of perfume on her.

This scent was low-key and mysterious, but it also seemed to carry a hint of an aggressive aura that did not allow outsiders to get close, domineeringly occupying Jiang Mengyu’s body.

Jiang Mengyu did not seem to use this kind of perfume much.

Where this scent had come from was self-evident.

What on earth had they done just now that would make Jiang Mengyu’s body be stained with Gu Lanqiu’s perfume?

The smile on Zhou Xinying’s face completely faded. She gave the black Cayenne in front of her a deep look. The back seat window was closed, blocking her line of sight.

But she knew that Gu Lanqiu must be watching in the car at this moment.

She slightly raised her chin, showing a deliberate, provocative smile, and only then did she turn and follow Jiang Mengyu’s steps.

So what if Gu Lanqiu had snatched Jiang Mengyu from her arms before?

At least the person who was with Jiang Mengyu now was her.

Just as Zhou Xinying had thought, Gu Lanqiu’s gaze had indeed not left Jiang Mengyu.

So she naturally had not missed Zhou Xinying’s gaze.

Gu Lanqiu’s gaze suddenly became extremely cold and heavy. What was going on between her and Jiang Mengyu was their business.

Was it Zhou Xinying’s turn to laugh at her?

She looked down at the kitten on the seat. Gu Lanqiu’s eyes were almost stagnant with a thick ink. When Jiang Mengyu had pushed this cat away just now, she had said “go back.”

That’s right. To the current Jiang Mengyu, the Zhou family’s villa was her home. All the things in North Garden had been abandoned by her.

Sensing that Jiang Mengyu’s scent had really left, the kitten also gradually became quiet. It curled up on the seat, a small ball, exceptionally pitiful.

The atmosphere in the car fell into a dead silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Lanqiu’s voice finally sounded again.

“CEO Zhou?”

“It’s me, Gu Lanqiu.”

“There are some things I want to explain to you.”

“It’s related to Yuyu.”

…

Jiang Mengyu had not walked far before Zhou Xinying caught up.

“The person in the car is Gu Lanqiu?”

She had asked a redundant question. Besides Gu Lanqiu, who else could make Jiang Mengyu go downstairs in the heavy rain?

However, Zhou Xinying had not really wanted to confirm who was in the car. She just wanted to find a topic to talk to Jiang Mengyu.

“What did you and Gu Lanqiu talk about?”

Jiang Mengyu’s steps did not stop. “What does that have to do with you?”

“Of course it has something to do with me,” Zhou Xinying’s face was unchanged. “I want to pursue you. Gu Lanqiu is your ex. Shouldn’t I care?”

She was only daring to say the word “pursue” so casually because there was no one else here.

Jiang Mengyu did not bother with her.

Seeing this, Zhou Xinying said in a small voice, “You probably won’t repeat your mistake and continue to be Gu Lanqiu’s canary, right?”

Jiang Mengyu still did not speak. She acted as if she had not heard Zhou Xinying’s words, her steps still unhurried.

Seeing this, Zhou Xinying’s heart couldn’t help but feel a little empty.

The moment Jiang Mengyu had lost her memory, she had immediately left North Garden. She had thought that the other party was planning to completely cut ties with Gu Lanqiu.

In the end, it was already late at night, and it was raining so heavily outside, but Jiang Mengyu was still willing to come out and meet with Gu Lanqiu.

Did she like Gu Lanqiu that much?

So much that even though her mind no longer had the memory of being with Gu Lanqiu, she would still soften her heart to her.

Zhou Xinying couldn’t help but tightly pinch her palm.

She couldn’t help but ask, “Did Gu Lanqiu cast a spell on you?”

“What do you mean?” Jiang Mengyu was finally willing to bother with her.

Zhou Xinying curled her lips and smiled. “Your affection for her seems to have appeared overnight.”

“I don’t understand. What do you like about her?”

If there had been some signs before, then fine. But there had been no signs at all, which made Zhou Xinying completely puzzled.

“Then what do you like about me?” Jiang Mengyu retorted.

“To me now, you and Gu Lanqiu are no different.”

Zhou Xinying was speechless.

Actually, she also did not know why she was interested in Jiang Mengyu. Perhaps the scene in the underground garage had left too deep an impression on her. From that day on, she had always been dreaming, dreaming that the person with Jiang Mengyu had become her.

Zhou Xinying’s thoughts drifted a little far. By the time she came back to her senses, Jiang Mengyu had already walked far away.

Zhou Xinying forced herself to cheer up. Jiang Mengyu had just said that in her heart, she and Gu Lanqiu were no different.

Did this mean that she had already acknowledged her status as a pursuer?
