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

Jiang Xingyu was kept at the head office for training, and the branch office sent a professional to the company. He would come and cause trouble for Jiang Xingye from time to time.

"I heard you hired the company's receptionist. Even rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows, you're really not picky."

"She's not the receptionist anymore."

"Oh, so you're keeping a mistress. But is the little bit of family fund you get each month enough to support a woman? Do you want me to help you out?"

"Jiang Xingyu, have you finished writing the report explaining the losses at your branch office? But you should be experienced by now; you've probably written it several times over the past few years, right?"

"What do you know? The current economic climate is bad."

"Heh~" Jiang Xingye's mockery was palpable.

Jiang Xingyu gritted his teeth. Ever since this bastard grew up, he had never won an argument with him.

Jiang Xingye was not at ease either. On the surface, he seemed unmoved by everything, but in reality, his sleep was getting worse and worse, and he had nightmares one after another.

On Saturday morning, Ning Wei felt a tightness in her chest as soon as she woke up. Jiang Xingye had half his body on her and his face buried in her chest.

She had noticed his unusual behavior during this time, but he didn't want to talk about it, and Ning Wei didn't dare to ask for too much detail. She only knew that his half-brother was picking on him at the company.

"Hmm, want to sleep a little longer?"

Ning moved slightly, and the person in front of her woke up, their voice muffled.

"Do you still want to sleep?" She raised the hand that wasn't numb from being pressed down, ran her fingers through his hair, and asked gently.

"I want to sleep, but I can't." Jiang Xingye was already very satisfied. In the past, he would go for several days in a row without being able to sleep until his body was exhausted, and then he could sleep for one night, and then the cycle would repeat itself.

Now, with Ning Wei by his side, he can get at least two hours of sleep every night.

"Can you tell me about it?"

Jiang Xingye's body stiffened for a moment, but Ning Wei's hand continued to stroke his hair. As the strands of hair were stroked back and forth, his heart slowly softened.

"Well," Jiang Xingye propped himself up, leaning against the headboard, "I don't like high places because I have post-traumatic stress disorder. When I was very young, my mother jumped off the building for my sake, and I watched from downstairs as her blood flowed everywhere."

Ning Wei leaned closer and grabbed his hand. Jiang Xingye covered it with his other hand, as if trying to find a foothold for himself.

"...Everyone tells me that my mother traded her life for mine, but what's the use of keeping my life? Living is so hard, and no one has ever asked me if I want this life or not." Jiang Xingye's fingertips were icy cold.

"I was only three years old at that time. The Jiang family members maliciously took me to the rooftop time and time again, telling me the reasons and process of my mother jumping off the building. I cried but no one paid attention to me. I couldn't run away. I couldn't even die. My life will forever be covered by my mother's determination and blood."

"My birth was a mistake, but I was incredibly resilient. Even though I killed my mother, I still managed to grow up in that cannibalistic place called the Chiang family."

Ning Wei felt heartbroken. She pulled the blanket up to cover his neck and hugged his head.

"No one's birth is a mistake, none of this is your fault, and you shouldn't be the one paying the price."

"No, if I didn't exist, my mother's tragedy wouldn't have happened. She could be living a good life. So, including me, a member of the Jiang family with dirty blood, we should all pay the price for this." Jiang Xingye's tone was calm as he spoke these words close to her skin, causing that area of ​​skin to become damp.

"A revenge that involves sacrificing yourself is a failed revenge. Living can actually be very interesting." Ning Wei moved her hand down from his head and gently patted his back.

"What's interesting about it?"

"Because I exist in this world now, I came for you, and I will make you feel that living is actually very good."

Jiang Xingye didn't speak. He wanted to refute, but the high walls that had been built up in his heart seemed to have cracked. In the darkness, a vague voice told him that perhaps he could try to trust the person who was holding him.

She was always so confident and reassuring, as if she would always be behind him whenever he turned around. This sense of security terrified him; he didn't know if he could ever have it.

"I know you're not so easily convinced right now, but we have plenty of time. We can take it slow. The most important thing right now is that we can't get ourselves involved in revenge."

"The Chiang family is a behemoth, and it's difficult for me to remain uninvolved."

"We have to give it a try. I don't know how much you're involved in the Jiang family's behind-the-scenes dealings, but starting now, it's time to clear your name and extricate yourself."

"How do you know the Chiang family has shady dealings?"

"How many of those who made their fortunes in your grandfather's generation had clean hands? Besides, you could have easily skipped that job at head office and just been a playboy drawing money from the family fund every month, but you went and did it so diligently. It's easy to guess that you have something you want in the company."

"You're the only one who thinks I'm hardworking. I only go to work in the afternoon every day."

"But you go there every day. Jiang Xingyu is such an annoying person, yet you still put up with seeing him every day."

Jiang Xingye nuzzled her face, his tone becoming a little more relaxed: "How do you know Jiang Xingyu is annoying? You've never even met him; he's actually quite good-looking."

"I hate what you hate, so there's no need to see me. Anyone who bullies you is a bad guy."

"I'm not a good person either!"

"Who told you to be a good person? As long as you have principles, don't hurt the innocent, and don't get yourself involved, that's fine."

"So lenient?" Jiang Xingye's voice changed, and his hands and tongue began to wander.

Ning Wei: "..."

Snapped!

Jiang Xingye's vision shifted to the ceiling, and he was pushed away again. Having a strong girlfriend wasn't necessarily a good thing!

"Get up, I'm hungry."

"It's hungry too, why aren't you taking care of it?" Jiang Xingye pointed to his legs with a self-righteous air.

"Go hungry!" Ning Wei put on her pajamas and went into the bathroom. After washing up, she went to the dining table.

A little while later, Jiang Xingye also came out and snuggled up next to her while eating breakfast.

"Are we going out today?" Ning Wei asked.

"Do you have plans?"

"No, I want to stay at home."

"I'll just stay home then. I'm too lazy to go out."

After breakfast, Ning Wei turned on the TV and randomly picked a variety show to watch. Jiang Xingye lay on her lap and watched for a while. He gradually became sleepy and did not resist, letting himself fall asleep.

When he woke up again, he was alone on the sofa, covered with a thin blanket and with a cushion under his head. He looked around blankly, his consciousness slowly returning. There was no one in the living room, but he could hear the faint sounds of pots and pans coming from the kitchen.
