Quick Transmigration: Don't Let an Honest Man Become a Villainous Supporting Female Character

It's summer vacation now, and Ji Chaoxi actually has another part-time job, which is to pick up bottles at the racetrack.

Why say "clipping bottles" instead of "picking up bottles"? Because the old lady who brought her there said that picking up bottles makes one seem unfortunate, while clipping bottles makes one seem professional.

This old lady was her brother's friend who staged accidents for money, and also the one who led him into this trap.

But the old lady was different. Her family was very wealthy, and staging accidents was her hobby. Moreover, she only staged accidents involving her son's and her relatives' cars.

The old lady was very principled. She didn't want money given to her by others; she only wanted money she earned through her own hard work, because she felt more accomplished with money earned that way.

The part-time job of picking up bottles at the racetrack was recommended to Ji Huaichuan by the old lady, but Ji Huaichuan refused to come.

He felt that there was no difference between picking up bottles and using a hand clamp, except that one required bending over more deeply and the other only required lowering one's head.

So this part-time job was transferred to Ji Chaoxi.

"Brother Ye is so generous, he just gave away the car like that."

"Hey Ye, is Sister Ranran back? Let's grab a bite to eat sometime."

"You little brat, you want to have dinner with Ranran too? Get lost."

A group of boys were gathered together, still wearing racing suits. It was incredibly hot, and they were leaning against the railing drinking water.

Suddenly, as they were talking, they felt a strong gaze upon them.

They looked over silently and found Ji Chaoxi watching them from not far away, with a high-end tool beside her.

They looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what the tool was, so they turned away again.

The boy in the middle frowned and glanced at Ji Chaoxi, his expression somewhat unfriendly.

"Yes, she just got back yesterday," the boy said in a clear, crisp voice.

"Let's get together these next couple of days, I'll make the arrangements," the guy next to me said excitedly.

The boy in the middle felt uncomfortable because he noticed that Ji Chaoxi was staring at him... at the water bottle in his hand.

When she saw the boy looking at her, Ji Chaoxi smiled politely at him.

Boy: ...

That smile again.

She used that same smile to try and scam him last time.

Is she trying to stage an accident at the racetrack? She's really got some nerve.

Ji Chaoxi saw the bottle next to her and skillfully picked it up.

Zhou Chiye saw what was inside that advanced tool; it was full of bottles.

His gaze lingered on her indifferently as he shook the bottle in his hand.

Ji Chaoxi paused for a moment, then nodded.

Zhou Chiye put on his clothes, walked towards her, and put the bottle into the tools next to her.

"I'm gone."

The boy next to him, looking completely bewildered, followed suit and tried to stuff the bottle inside as well.

"Wow, I thought it was some kind of high-tech stuff, but it turns out it's just for storing bottles. I didn't dare ask at first, afraid you'd laugh at me."

"The venue is so desperate to make money, they might as well just use a basket to hold it all."

Ji Chaoxi looked at the high-end bottling basket in front of her. The old lady was right. With high-end tools to hold the bottles, no one would look down on her!

The old woman also told her, "It's okay to use the worst basket to collect bottles, but you're not old enough yet. When you get to my age, if anyone dares to laugh at you, you can lie down on the ground and they'll be crying and begging you to get up."

The "others" here refers to her son.

Ji Chaoxi kept those words firmly in mind, and she was determined to give it a try when she reached that age.

"Brother Ye, are you driving this car back today?"

"Brother Ye, why do you buy me any car I want? Why doesn't my dad buy me one?"

"No, can you even compare to Brother Ye?"

Several boys walked forward noisily.

Ji Chaoxi looked at the car on the racetrack, her brows furrowed tightly. She had heard people say that car was extremely expensive...

She was somewhat tempted.

Isn't this the secret the old man told her?

So he quickly finished grabbing the bottles from the racetrack and then waited on the path that everyone had to take to leave the racetrack.

Race cars sped by on the road, but the one she remembered never came.

Just as it was getting dark, she finally saw the car of her dreams.

Ji Chaoxi stood hesitantly by the roadside, but these cars drove much faster than ordinary cars, which must be very dangerous.

Zhou Chiye, not far away: ...

They've got their eyes on him, haven't they?

The car gradually slowed down, and Ji Chaoxi lay down as a result.

The car horns blared incessantly, but the person lying on the ground showed no reaction.

Zhou Chiye laughed in anger. He slammed the door, got out of the car, and walked straight up to Ji Chaoxi.

He looked at her impatiently: "If you lie here any longer, believe me, I'll just smash you in."

He had thought he would have to stand there with her for a while longer, but the next second he saw Ji Chaoxi get up quickly and leave.

The speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

Zhou Chiye: ...

They do value their lives.

Ji Chaoxi was very pragmatic; the reason she didn't get up last time was because the driver seemed very kind.

She got up this time because this person looked like he was about to punch her any second.

The race cars roared past behind them, and a burst of scalding heat suddenly hit Ji Chaoxi's face.

Ji Chaoxi choked and stepped back into the road.

She was going to the library to do some homework in the evening, but actually she just wanted to take advantage of the library's air conditioning and free water.

When she arrived, Ji Huaichuan had already been sitting in the library for quite a while, and the air conditioning in the library made him drowsy.

Ji Chaoxi quickly glanced at the homework on his desk and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had written less than she had.

Ji Huaichuan, who witnessed the whole process, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

It's one thing to compare yourself to others at school, but you also have to compare yourself to him at home.

Ji Chaoxi and Ji Huaichuan's mother, Ms. Ji Fangyun, was forced to marry their father.

Ji's father wasn't a responsible person either; he did nothing but play cards all day. Ji Fangyun not only had to work, but also take care of her two children.

Finally, one day, she couldn't bear it any longer. She left Ji Chaoxi and Ji Huaichuan a thousand yuan and left with all her belongings.

Over the years, she has sent them money intermittently, sending more when she earned more and less when she earned less.

When Ji's father ran out of money gambling, he tried to ask Ji Chaoxi for more, but was beaten up by Ji Huaichuan several times before finally behaving himself.

Therefore, Ji Chaoxi and Ji Huaichuan are very frugal. They are still in school and may run out of money one day, so every penny must be spent wisely.

When Ms. Ji Fangyun was still at home, she often stood on the balcony looking at the tall buildings across the street and sighed, "If only I had bought him insurance, the three of us could have gotten a large sum of money if he got hit by a car."

When Mr. Ji heard this one day, he was shocked, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that his family had no money to buy insurance.

It was from this point on that he actually started to obey traffic rules.

You know, even when the zebra crossing was only two or three meters away from him, he would still brazenly cross the road.

Ji Fangyun sighed. If he had any sense of dedication to the family, he shouldn't have been using the crosswalk.

Ji Fangyun finally gave up on her father's actions of obeying traffic rules.
