Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

"We can't go eat right now, can we?" Gu Xingran patted his bewildered face. "Go save your brother and negotiate with your dad."

Sheng Yunzhou expressed his doubts: Could his old man really be so reasonable?

Gu Xingran said that you used the wrong method.

"Dad, let my eldest brother out. Your health isn't good, and Shengshi needs someone to keep things in order," Gu Xingran said bluntly.

Sheng Yunzhou stood beside her, holding his daughter, facing his father.

The little girl said sweetly, "Hello, Grandpa."

Old Sheng couldn't help but smile: "Oh, my sweetheart."

Then, with a stern face, he said to Gu Xingran, "No, our Sheng family can't afford to lose face like this. If he doesn't change, he can never leave the house again."

Sheng Yunzhou said anxiously, "This is illegal; it's unlawful imprisonment."

"Then go ahead and sue me!"

Before Sheng Yunzhou could speak, Gu Xingran pressed down on his arm: "Dad, the executive vice president of Shengshi Group has suddenly disappeared. Isn't that even more shameful? Besides, he's just a homosexual. It's not an isolated case. Just keep the news to your own family. By locking him up like this, aren't you telling outsiders that there's something fishy going on?"

"Then take him to the hospital and find a psychiatrist to treat him."

Gu Xingran relaxed and said calmly, "Dad, it wasn't easy for Shengshi to develop to where it is today. You certainly don't want Shengshi to be embroiled in internal strife."

"I'm not dead yet, what's with the infighting?"

"Let's be frank, your illegitimate son will find it very difficult to move an inch in this country."

Old Master Sheng subconsciously looked at Sheng Yunzhou and his granddaughter.

"Dad, Yunzhou already knew. He's the one who told me." Gu Xingran turned her attention back to herself.

"This prosperous era is still mine. As long as I'm here, I can give it to whomever I want."

"Dad, since everyone already knew, do you think my brother and I would be completely unprepared? I said he would have no way to move an inch in the country, and I mean it."

"What...what did you do?"

"What we did is not important. The bottom line is that he will not interfere with you giving him the overseas branch, but he cannot get involved in the domestic headquarters."

"Are you threatening me?" Old Sheng stared at Gu Xingran with a very oppressive look in his eyes.

The little girl was so frightened that she clung to her father's neck and mustered her courage, saying, "Grandpa, don't be mean to my mom."

"Take the child out," Old Sheng said to his son, turning his gaze away from the child.

Sheng Yunzhou ignored him and looked at his wife.

Gu Xingran didn't let her daughter leave. Instead, she stroked her slightly protruding belly and said sarcastically, "Dad, how do you feel looking at such similar faces? Do you feel guilty?"

"Shut up! How dare you! Is this how Xiang Yun raises her daughter?"

"Dad, it's pointless to involve the parents if you can't win an argument."

"What exactly do you want?" Old Sheng's chest heaved up and down.

Sheng Yunzhou put his daughter down, reached into his pocket, and clutched a nitroglycerin pill, ready to feed it to his father at any moment.

"Release my elder brother to continue presiding over this prosperous era. You've known me for so many years, I'm not sure I won't speak so forcefully."

Old Sheng looked at his daughter-in-law for a long time, then said, "The one in your belly will also be born with the surname Sheng."

Sheng Yunzhou objected first: "No, it's already agreed that the second son will take Ranran's surname, Gu."

Old Sheng ignored his son and instead stared at his daughter-in-law.

"Dad, you have to understand, I'm not here to bargain or make an equal exchange with you," Gu Xingran said calmly.

What do you have in your hands?

"Not many, but enough to rival you, and even more enough to suppress your illegitimate son."

In the end, they successfully took away Sheng Yunqin and his special assistant who was locked in the basement. Old Sheng knew very well that if it were just his two sons, they wouldn't be able to cause too much trouble. But with Gu Xingran added, she really dared to bring a bunch of bodyguards and turn the house upside down, and she could really make Xingjie go up against Shengshi.

Sheng Yunzhou glanced at his older brother, then cautiously glanced at his "sister-in-law," his eyes darting back and forth between the two for a long time.

Sheng Yunqin said irritably, "What are you looking at? Just say what you have to say."

Gu Xingran: "What? I just got you out of there, and you're already yelling at my husband?"

"He's also my brother."

"That won't work either."

"Alright, alright, then you can protect him."

"What are your plans for the future?" Gu Xingran changed the subject.

"What else can we do? Let it be."

"You are his biological son, he won't really kill you, but your 'family member' is in danger," Gu Xingran kindly reminded him.

"I will break up with him."

"Hmm?" Gu Xingran glanced at the man who looked sad but didn't say a word, and then gave Sheng Yunqin a reproachful look.

"Why are you staring at me like that? If you don't break up with him openly, do you think my father will let him off the hook?"

"Then you should explain yourself clearly, it's kind of scary," Sheng Yunzhou scolded his older brother.

"Let's move the plan forward quickly. You need to secure Shengshi to have leverage in negotiations." Gu Xingran brought the topic back to the main point. Originally, their plan was to prepare for several more years, but now it's like a bombshell dropped ahead of schedule.

Sheng Yunqin rubbed his face: "Sorry, it was our mistake."

Gu Xingran raised her hand: "Complaining won't solve anything. Life is different because of all the unexpected things that happen."

She firmly believes that the truly powerful people are those who can solve problems.

Based on the current progress, the group discussed the next steps. After having dinner at home, Sheng Yunqin declined his younger brother and sister-in-law's offer to stay and left with his lover.

After watching his brother's car disappear from sight, Sheng Yunzhou asked mysteriously, "Tell me, is my brother on top or on the bottom?"

"Why don't you just ask him directly?" Gu Xingran chuckled.

"I didn't dare, I was afraid he would scold me."

"You accepted it quite quickly."

"My brother forced himself to grow up from his teens, to be the eldest son that our father was satisfied with, and to be the older brother that his younger brother could rely on. He was actually very tired, so as long as he was happy and liked it, he would be willing to have a non-human as his sister-in-law."

Gu Xingran asked him to help her walk back, as her back was a little sore today.

"Big brother, it's the one below."

"Huh? How did you know? You asked? You asked me just now while I was putting my daughter to sleep?"

"No, it's just a feeling."

"Can intuition be accurate?"

"Who knows? Why don't you ask your older brother to confirm?"

"I dare not."

Old Sheng acted swiftly. He began pressuring his eldest son to go on blind dates, restricted his son's rights within the company, and even wanted to send his illegitimate son back to China.

Gu Xingran kept her word. The internal affairs of Shengshi were Sheng Yunqin's battlefield, and she would not interfere. However, the illegitimate child's entry application was repeatedly blocked, and he just couldn't come.

After nearly a year of this back and forth, Mr. Sheng began to take a risky approach, bringing his illegitimate son to China and attempting to have him adopted by his eldest son.
