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

"Actually, my grandfather still had principles and bottom lines when it came to educating his children." At least those who grew up in the Huo family had very positive values.

"Yeah, actually I didn't take those things seriously. The main reason I sent you abroad was to let you learn something. I didn't expect it to turn out so well."

"Uncle, maybe we're overcorrecting," Xu Linlang joked.

"Um?"

Xu Linlang glanced at the monitor in the ward and whispered a few words in her ear.

Huo Yanting was taken aback by the young man's trendy ideas. After a long pause, he said, "This really is going too far. Have you made your decision?"

"It's decided."

"Uncle, let's wait and see the results."

"If you can see the details, won't you be living in the capital for a long time from now on?" Xu Linlang said softly.

"Haha, you're much smarter than your mother."

Xu Linlang smiled. Huo Xin was indeed ill and had even fallen into a coma. Huo Yanting's illness, however, was half real and half fake. Given his age, it was perfectly normal for him to have some minor health problems. Coupled with his grief, it was bound to cause some distress. But having been a soldier his whole life, he was resolute and his father's death was not enough to prevent him from getting out of bed. He simply wanted to retire.

The military region on the frontier needs an iron-fisted army. He was tired after all these years. His father's nod before his death was a signal for him to step down.

"How is my eldest cousin?" The eldest son of my maternal uncle's family is also a soldier, and he is now forty years old.

"It's almost done."

The conversation ended there, and Xu Linlang got up to go see her mother.

At the end of May, Huo Xin appeared at the airport, ready to continue to satisfy her free spirit, travel all over the world, stop and stay in places she likes, and have a beautiful encounter with interesting people.

After sending her adventurous mother away, Xu Linlang continued with her plans.

In June, Jiang You finally signed his first artist, a fourth or fifth-tier tough guy. Taking advantage of his second uncle being an investor, he directly landed the male lead role in a drama and also got several endorsements, which can be considered a meteoric rise in his career.

Jing Ci's former agency still hasn't given up on trying to win him back. Seeing that Jiang You has started promoting other artists, they assumed that the siblings had grown tired of Jing Ci. During a charity event, they openly tried to poach him in a secluded spot.

Fortunately, Jing Ci always had bodyguards sent by Jiang You.

When Xu Linlang received Jiang You's call, she discussed the branch company's reform plan with Liu Qian. Although she couldn't move now, it didn't stop her from thinking about how to change it. This branch company was one of Xu's most traditional industries, with a lot of redundant staff and numerous clients. In fact, the best and fastest way was to cut off this branch company because its profits had already shown a negative growth trend. In the future, this industry would only decline. They were using it to conduct the deduction now mainly for practice.

"Sis, where are you?"

"I'm at the villa." The villa where the original owner used to live has been converted into a temporary studio by her.

"I was out of town on business and couldn't get back in time. Jing Ci was blocked."

"Call the police!"

"The police went there, but the other party didn't do anything aggressive; they just talked. The police couldn't stay there and watch, so they went back."

"Where? Send me the address." Xu Linlang stood up calmly. Trying to pull this on me?

"Okay." Then an address was sent over.

Xu Linlang brought four bodyguards with her. When she arrived at the scene, she saw the broken car window, the torn clothes on the bodyguards, and Jing Ci's swollen face. She then slapped one of the third-generation rich kids across the face.

"Xu Linlang, how dare you hit me?"

"So what if you hit him? He's the person Jiang You wants to sign. If you hit him in the face, you're hitting my brother in the face."

"Who do you think you are? You dare hit me? Old Master Huo is already dead, and you still dare to be arrogant?"

"And who do you think you are? A shameful mistress's son. Didn't I warn you last time not to mess with me? You still dare to act arrogantly by stepping on my brother's face? You've been spoiled." Xu Linlang raised her hand, but the slap didn't come down. Instead, she used a feint and kicked him.

Everyone present knew who Xu Linlang was. Her presence alone represented a certain attitude. Now that she was even kicking and punching the person with the highest status, no one else dared to make a move.

I'll beat you to death.

Xu Linlang wasn't going to confront him head-on. She retreated directly behind her bodyguards. The bodyguards around her and her brother were all retired soldiers with excellent skills. Together with the two who were originally with Jing Ci, there were six of them in total, easily suppressing the person opposite them.

The one who was beaten was naturally unwilling to accept it and wanted to teach Xu Linlang a lesson through their usual relationship. However, no one who wasn't stupid would get involved in their affairs. Before long, the matter reached his father, who scolded him.

"Why did you have to provoke that little girl from the Xu family?"

"She stole my man."

"Who are you? If she wants it, just give it to her. Don't mess with her, and don't provoke me or the Huo family, or I'll beat you up."

"Okay." No matter how frustrated I was, I could only reply.

A long time passed, and the news vaguely reached Huo Yanting. By then, he had completed his retirement procedures and was enjoying his retirement in the capital. He called his childhood playmate.

"Old buddy, I heard my sister's son messed with your family?"

"Old Huo? What the hell? Huo Xin's son? Jiang You? Who did he offend in my family? I don't know. Kids just fight and play around, it's nothing serious. When we were kids, we used to form opposing teams. How big can kids play these days? It's all trivial."

"Haha, it's nothing serious. I was just worried you might be petty. Huo Xin's girl beat up your grandson. The child is still young. If you want to avenge your grandson, come at me. Don't scare Linlang." Huo Yanting laughed heartily, half-jokingly and half-narrating as he explained the matter.

"Who's petty? Who's petty? You troublemaker, how dare you call me that? Do you think I'd go and scare a little girl? Who do you think you are?"

"Alright, alright, it's best if you don't scare her. I'll invite you for drinks in a few days. Wait, can your frail body even hold a drink?"

"What are you drinking? Just drink plain water. You're a retired old man, why are you pretending to be a young man?"

"You must have some good tea, right? Get ready, I'll come over for a drink in a few days."

"Yes, yes, yes, come on, let's play a few rounds."

The old man on the other end of the phone hung up and sent someone to inquire about the conflict between Huo's two grandsons and one of his younger relatives. After investigation, it turned out to be the illegitimate child of one of his sons, who was competing with Jiang You to sign a star. Jiang You had already started legal proceedings, while his own side was actually gathering people to fight and rob. Wasn't this ridiculous?

He called his son over and gave him a thorough dressing-down. People of his generation didn't value gentle and persuasive parenting methods. In the heat of the moment, he even hit his nearly fifty-year-old son with his cane.

At this point, Jing Ci's former agency completely shut down. Although they didn't terminate the contract directly, they cooperated with the legal procedures step by step, seemingly still wanting to collect a termination fee.
