Chapter 16 Supporting Character Counterattack System
Chapter 16 Supporting Character Counterattack System
"Big brother, second brother, you don't need to remind me. Besides, Qian Xiaofeng and I are just ordinary friends," Qin Yingxue explained helplessly.
"Little sister, what did you just call us?"
Almost instantly, Qin Dahai and Qin Dajiang surrounded Qin Yingxue, looking at her with eager eyes.
Qin Yingxue looked up and saw Qin Jiasheng and Li Hehua smiling broadly not far away, but their eyes, like Qin Dahai and Qin Dajiang's, were all looking at her with fervent anticipation.
Qin Yingxue's heart softened instantly, and she called out in a clear voice, "Dad, Mom, eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law."
"Hey..." The response was loud and cheerful.
The whole family looked at each other and smiled happily, just like it was Chinese New Year, their happiness overflowing.
“Yingxue…” A gentle voice came from behind; it was Zhu Huiwen, Song Yanchuan’s mother.
Qin Yingxue tapped her head.
Although she was engaged to Song Yanchuan and the wedding date was set.
However, she hasn't quite adjusted to her new identity yet. Song Yanchuan has been gone for two days, and as his fiancée, she should at least go and keep his future mother-in-law company.
There's no reason for elders to visit first.
Qin Yingxue could only try to salvage the situation, hurriedly stepping forward to help Zhu Huiwen up: "Auntie, what brings you here?"
"I knew you've been busy these past few days, so I haven't bothered you. I just finished making the clothes today, so I brought them for you to see if they fit."
Zhu Huiwen looked at Qin Yingxue with tender eyes and took out a white shirt with a smile on her face.
Qin Yingxue immediately recognized it as chiffon and looked at Zhu Huiwen with some surprise, feeling a little flustered: "Auntie, this dress is too expensive, I can't accept it..."
"The fabric was found by Yan Chuan through his friend; I only did some minor work. If you think the design is too outdated and unattractive, I'll go back and redo it..."
Zhu Huiwen speaks softly and calmly.
"Auntie, that's not what I meant. The clothes are beautiful; I've never seen such pretty clothes before, and I like them very much..."
Qin Yingxue was interrupted by Zhu Huiwen before she could finish speaking.
"Take it if you like it."
"Okay, then I'll accept it! Thank you, Auntie!"
Qin Yingxue didn't stand on ceremony and readily accepted it.
Zhu Huiwen's smile grew even brighter as she pulled Qin Yingxue along, finding everything she saw to her satisfaction.
Fortunately, Qin Yingxue had lived an extra life and had interacted with all sorts of people, so she had a strong mentality and a thick skin.
Moreover, Zhu Huiwen's gaze is gentle, which makes people feel comfortable and not uncomfortable.
"Ding! The Supporting Character's Counterattack System is restarting. Bind now?"
A cold, mechanical voice suddenly exploded in her mind, jolting Jiang Linlin awake from her sleep. A look of ecstatic joy spread across her face.
It's a system!
She was actually chosen by luck, a cheat code that only exists in novels?
Jiang Linlin didn't have time to look at it much before she eagerly bound herself to the system.
"System binding in progress... Congratulations, host, you have become the 999th lucky person in this system! As long as you cooperate with the system and work hard to complete the tasks, you can turn your life around and reach the pinnacle of life, enjoying the best of everything and traveling the world..."
Upon seeing the system's name, "Supporting Character's Counterattack System," Jiang Linlin's excitement vanished instantly. She interrupted unhappily, "System, I'm a supporting character? Then who's the protagonist?"
The system clearly sensed Jiang Linlin's anger and remained silent for three seconds before replying, "Qin Yingxue."
"Impossible! She went back to the countryside and married that short-lived bastard Song Yanchuan, how could she be the main character? System, are you mistaken? I've already snatched Xie Guodong away, and in twenty years I'll be the wife of the richest man, how could I be a minor supporting character?"
Jiang Linlin became somewhat hysterical towards the end.
"..."
The system remained silent, now seriously doubting whether its long lifespan would be ruined by the host it had just bound to.
"System, say something! Have you made a mistake?" Jiang Linlin demanded angrily.
The system could no longer play dead and could only try to persuade: "Host, it's true that Qin Yingxue is the female lead, but you've been bound to this system. As long as you cooperate with the system to complete tasks, it's only a matter of time before you rise up and become the female lead."
"Really?" Jiang Linlin's eyes lit up, and her tone changed instantly. "Then how do you want me to cooperate?"
"Return to Qin Village Commune, marry Song Yanchuan, and steal Qin Yingxue's marriage." This is the task assigned by the system.
"No, no, Song Yanchuan is a short-lived man. I'm not going to marry him and become a widow." Jiang Linlin refused without even thinking.
"Host, you have this system, it won't let you become a widow..." The system's mechanical voice sounded somewhat helpless.
"I'd rather be a widow than marry Song Yanchuan!!" Jiang Linlin exclaimed with disgust. "In my past life, I married him, and not only was he cold to me, but he also made me live like a widow. Even after he died, he made me restless. Guodong is so gentle and considerate to me, always caring for me. Besides, our two families have already agreed to get married in a couple of days. System, since I'm already a supporting character, wouldn't it be better to wait until I marry into the Xie family and have the leverage to stop Qin Yingxue from marrying Song Yanchuan?"
After confirming that Jiang Linlin truly did not want to marry Song Yanchuan, the system could only say with regret: "Then host, speed things up. Song Yanchuan has already applied for a marriage certificate. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, he will marry Qin Yingxue once the certificate is issued."
"What?" Jiang Linlin's voice cracked with jealousy. "In his past life, he made all sorts of excuses to avoid marrying me. If Zhu Huiwen hadn't fallen seriously ill and Song Yanchuan hadn't wanted to be branded as unfilial, he wouldn't have wanted to marry me at all... Why is it that Song Yanchuan is going to marry Qin Yingxue after she's only been back for a few days? System, don't worry, I will definitely stop this marriage!"
Jiang Linlin's chest heaved as she clenched her fists.
What she can't have, no one else can have either.
Sensing Jiang Linlin's high spirits, the system finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away imaginary sweat.
As a system, is it easy for it?
Fortunately, it has already figured out the host's weaknesses, so it won't be a problem to control it in the future.
Jiang Linlin, beaming with delight, was unaware that she had fallen into the system's trap. She began to fantasize about taking Xie Guodong back to Qin Village, enduring the envious and jealous glances from everyone, especially the three Qin brothers, and Li Hehua fawning over her...
Jiang Linlin laughed out loud as she thought about it.
"Linlin, did you miss me because you knew I was coming?"
An unfamiliar male voice suddenly appeared in the room.
Jiang Linlin's smile froze, and fear flashed in her eyes: "You... how did you end up in my house?"
"Of course your mom brought me! When she heard about my relationship with you, she enthusiastically led me straight into your room..."
