The Female Supporting Character Who Accompanied The Main Character Through Poverty Has Awakened: Chapter 17-3

{Qian Xu is returning to China 3}

“Tang arms trying to stop a chariot, so what?” Qian Xu’s voice was unwavering.

“They think that just because I come from an ordinary family, I’m like an ant, one they can easily crush under their feet?” She continued, her eyes sharp with resolve.

“But I don’t think it’s worth it. Don’t worry, I’m not about to show up at someone’s event and make a scene, or do anything that would embarrass myself or my family. I only want them to realize they made a grave mistake, one that’s hard to make up for. If Heaven doesn’t punish them, it doesn’t mean no one else can.”

They should pay the price.

Even if everything she did ended up being in vain, it would still be better than sitting idly by, waiting for her fate to be sealed like laundry sent to a washhouse.

Yan Li, unconsciously swept up by her friend’s determination, gave a solemn nod. It wasn’t until after she realized she had nodded that she regretted it and shook her head instead.

But Qian Xu understood her friend’s heart. She knew Yan Li always had a soft spot and would ultimately support all her decisions. Sometimes, she even wished she could fight the battle for her.

With a playful smile, Qian Xu asked, “So, are you supporting my decision or opposing it?”

“I can’t support you taking such a risk by yourself, but those people are infuriatingly hateful,” Yan Li sighed, clearly conflicted. In the end, she relented. “So, if you really want to go through with it, I have no reason to stop you.”

Yan Li was torn. She didn’t want her friend to endure such injustice, but she also didn’t want her to face dangers beyond her control.

She had no perfect solution. At this point, the most she could think of was that maybe she should graduate early as well.

Qian Xu smiled at the rare support from Yan Li. “Alright then. While I’m packing over the next couple of days, we can hang out. If there’s anything you want to eat, just let me know—my treat.”

The two of them exchanged smiles. Although Yan Li lived a bit rough around the edges, she was meticulous when it came to making sure her friend had everything she needed for her return to China.

From small details like ID cards and passports to the latest customs regulations, she went over everything multiple times, even bringing up new policies while they were on their way to the mall.

It was clear that Gu Wei didn’t want to put all his eggs in one basket, especially when it came to blindly trusting someone like Cheng Shuangyi.

He did admire Cheng Shuangyi’s beauty, but up to this point, he hadn’t seen any value in her beyond that.

His opinion of her had worsened over time, not without reason. From the first time he met her, he could tell she was inherently unreliable, and he had no doubts since then. Out of respect for Shen Qi, though, he didn’t want to offend anyone.

But the incident on the overpass last night, where the police stopped them, was giving him a headache even now.

Gu Wei rubbed his temples. Last night, he had specifically sent an assistant to handle it.

The assistant had rushed over quickly, doing his best to resolve the situation, but the one person unwilling to cooperate was Cheng Shuangyi herself.

She assumed that since Gu Wei hadn’t shown up personally, sending an assistant was just an attempt to brush her off. She had the audacity to claim, “Wasn’t it President Gu who asked me to come? Now that I’ve gotten myself into this mess, shouldn’t you be the one to personally deal with it?”

Gu Wei had no desire to waste time on something that would only hurt his reputation. He instinctively wanted to distance himself from the issue, but the woman was more “persistent” than he had imagined.

She had gone as far as to shout his name at the police, yet refused to divulge her own personal information.

Left with no choice, Gu Wei had to drive over there himself.

But even after rushing to the scene, he was met with a cold welcome. “President Gu, the busy man, finally graces us with his presence,” Cheng Shuangyi greeted him sarcastically, as if his special trip out there was something she was entitled to, rather than a favor.

Gu Wei tried to mediate the situation, but Cheng Shuangyi’s arrogance left the police less than willing to let her off the hook easily. She leaned in close, smiling, and whispered in his ear, “Can’t you just throw some money and make this problem go away?”

It sounded simple enough, but this was a lawful society.

Even if the issue could be resolved, Cheng Shuangyi’s complete lack of remorse was enough to warrant more than just a fine.

Gu Wei’s head throbbed, yet he had to gently remind the dazzling woman beside him, “Miss Cheng, if you keep talking like this, you might end up losing your driver’s license.”

Cheng Shuangyi leaned against the hood of her car, arms crossed, utterly fearless. “Them? Take my license?”

Gu Wei wasn’t sure if she genuinely didn’t understand the situation or was just pretending not to. Despite her impressive educational background, her actions in real life were brazenly reckless, ignoring basic laws and morality.

Lowering his stance, he tried to settle the matter. “Officers, I’ll take care of her fines.”

One of the younger officers, having cleared the other lane, stood firm in the cold wind. “She’s not just guilty of reckless driving. Since Miss Cheng refuses to accept a verbal warning, I think it’s best if we take her to the station to sort this out properly.”
