1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!
Chapter 475 Rats in the Gutter
When Jiang Yue'er saw Wen Li was angry, a smug smile appeared on her face.
"Yeah! Aren't you angry?"
Wen Li chuckled. "Why should I be angry? Whether in the real world or this fictional world, I'm the winner. You're destined to be a shadowy rat, despicably jealous of everything I have, forced to watch helplessly!"
Jiang Yue'er gritted her teeth, "Wen-Li!"
"You say I enjoy your gratitude? But what have you done to express your gratitude? I didn't even know how you did on your college entrance exam. I only found out from my grandfather that you got into the same university as me. You've been in college for a year now, haven't you? Did you even say thank you to me in person?"
Have you ever thanked me in person?
As Wen Li continued to question her, Jiang Yue'er's expression grew increasingly grim.
"You still say it's not just to create a persona? If you genuinely wanted to help me, why would you want me to be grateful?"
Wen Li shook her head. This kind of person is an ingrate. The more you help her, the more she will think that others have ill intentions.
"No one knows about my financial support for you except my grandfather and the housekeeper Liu who takes care of him. What kind of persona am I trying to create?"
"You..." Jiang Yue'er was speechless for a moment.
"I'll give you three thousand yuan every month, which will add up to 144,000 yuan over four years. Ask your classmates if they have three thousand yuan for living expenses each month."
When Wen Li was trying to sponsor Jiang Yue'er, she did some research and found that most of her classmates came from ordinary families.
They only have two or three thousand yuan a month for living expenses.
Moreover, there are scholarships available at the university, and students can also work part-time.
Before going to university, Jiang Yue'er would help out in the medicinal herb field every weekend, and her grandfather would give her a thousand yuan every month. With this money, she wouldn't have a bad life.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Yue'er's face: "Your meal costs more than three thousand, doesn't it?"
Wen Li crossed her arms and coldly stared at this ingrate.
"Even if I spend 30 million on a single meal, it's still my own money. Are you really that possessive of other people's money?"
"You're just relying on your privileged background!"
"My privileged background is due to the hard work of my ancestors. They earned money to provide a better life for their descendants. What? Are you jealous?"
"you……"
"What an ingrate! If it weren't for my grandfather providing you with a job and me sponsoring your schooling, your parents would have sold you long ago for a dowry. Instead of hating them, you hate me?"
"What do you know?" Jiang Yue'er glared at Wen Li with eyes wide with fury. "The little money you give me every month is all taken by my parents. They only leave me five hundred. I can only eat steamed buns and drink plain water every day. Do you know what cold steamed buns taste like?"
"If I transfer that money to your bank account, how can they take it if you stand up for yourself?"
"I'm not your mother, I have no obligation to help you deal with your bloodsucking parents!"
Jiang Yue'er wasn't unaware of this principle, but her parents were such scoundrels that if they weren't given money, they would cause trouble at the school.
That's why she hates Wen Li; she clearly had the ability to help, but Wen Li never even considered helping her.
She only peeked out a little favor from between her fingers, yet she expects the woman to be grateful? Why should she?
Wen Li could tell what Jiang Yue'er was thinking at a glance. She was really blind back then. If she had known that Jiang Yue'er was this kind of person, she would have used that money to raise stray dogs rather than to sponsor her.
"You're just looking for a way to cope with your miserable life. You don't dare hate your parents for favoring boys over girls, you don't dare hate your brother Yaozu, and you don't dare hate those who bullied you, so you can only hate me, your benefactor whom you've never even met!"
"Only by imagining me as a hypocritical and malicious person can you find solace and numb yourself into believing that your miserable life is all my fault!"
Jiang Yue'er never thought she was wrong.
"No, I didn't. If you hadn't given me hope, I would have dropped out of school early and gotten married. Perhaps I wouldn't have seen the city's prosperity, nor would I have become the object of everyone's ostracism. If I had known it would turn out this way, I would have preferred to get married early!"
"Wasn't it you who tried to play the victim in front of my grandfather, saying you really wanted to study?"
Jiang Yue'er fell silent. At first, she was grateful to Wen Li, and her teacher had also told her to be grateful.
But after she went to university in a big city, she was like an ugly duckling who had mistakenly joined a flock of swans.
Her classmates looked down on her, her roommates ostracized her, and treated her like a dumping ground, throwing their unfinished snacks and old clothes at her.
It was as if she was born to eat other people's leftovers and wear other people's hand-me-downs.
On what grounds?
Even the senior she had a crush on liked Wen Li.
This is what really broke her down.
After listening to Jiang Yue'er's story, Wen Li's feelings became even more complicated.
She actually mistook her roommates' good intentions for exclusion?
If giving her snacks or old clothes is considered exclusion, then what about her eating steamed buns soaked in plain water every day?
Thinking of Jiang Yue'er's vengeful nature, Wen Li had a bold guess in her mind.
"Chen Yan and Tang Shi aren't your roommates' names, are they?"
Wen Li was certain that Chen Yan was not a time traveler, but this was originally a novel written by Jiang Yue'er.
If she can hate herself this much, what about her roommates?
Jiang Yue'er wore a strange smile. "Yes, Chen Yan, Tang Shi, and Li Xiangxiang are all my roommates' names!"
Thinking of the tragic ends of Su Hao and Qi Jun, Wen Li asked, "What happened to Su Hao and Qi Jun?"
"Haha, Su Hao is the senior I have a crush on. The person he secretly loves is you. Giving him a disabled ending is already more than fair to him!"
"Qi Jun is Chen Yan's boyfriend. They show off their affection in front of me every day. Every time she comes back from a date, she packs up the leftovers from their meal. She acts just as arrogant as you, which is disgusting. Chen Yan was supposed to go crazy, but who knew the plot would turn out this way?"
"I thought it was because of my time travel, but I never expected there was another time traveler like you!"
Wen Li didn't say anything more, but just looked at her with pity.
Why are you staring at me like that?
"There's always a reason why someone is pitiful. Now, being permanently disabled and confined to bed for the rest of your life is your retribution!"
Wen Li finally understood why Jiang Yue'er could write such a twisted book: she couldn't get her parents' love, so she wrote herself as the beloved child of the family.
Those who supposedly "gave her alms" all became cannon fodder trampled under her feet.
She became a winner in life, having given birth to eleven sons and one daughter!
The novel provided her with all the favoritism she couldn't get in real life.
She's the darling of the group, a lucky charm, a real and fake heiress, and has a knack for getting pregnant—she's got all the dramatic elements in the bag.
"Hahaha, yes, this is my retribution. Wen Li, do you think you've won?"
