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

The traffic flowed continuously outside the car window, and the occasional aroma of food wafted through the air. Ji's mother sat in the passenger seat, her brows furrowed tightly.

Mr. Ji muttered under his breath, "I didn't drink it at the time. Does taking a sip count as drinking?"

Mrs. Ji snorted coldly: "One sip doesn't count as drinking, but stabbing you doesn't count as stabbing, right?"

Mr. Ji choked up. He gripped the steering wheel and whispered, "Don't argue in front of the children."

What if the daughter feels that there is disharmony in their family?

Ji Chaoxi was already asleep, sleeping in a crooked position, her head swaying back and forth with the car, looking extremely sleepy.

Mrs. Ji turned her head and glanced at him, then lowered her voice: "He definitely won't eat later."

Traffic is terrible right now. Looking at the long line of cars ahead, Mr. Ji couldn't help but chuckle, "By the time she gets home, she'll probably have had a good sleep."

Ji's mother slapped Ji's father impatiently: "Stop laughing, it looks awful. Turn the temperature up."

Mr. Ji's lips twitched, and he couldn't even smile anymore, but he still obediently turned the temperature up a bit.

It was completely dark by then, and the car was moving forward at a snail's pace. Students in school uniforms were everywhere on the street.

Sure enough, Ji Chaoxi had already woken up before they even got home.

She drowsily looked at the lights outside the window and listened to her parents talking in front of her.

She suddenly remembered the look in Lu Huainan's eyes when she left.

She didn't know how to describe it, but every time she went to school, her dog would look at her with those wet, teary eyes...

Of course, comparing Lu Huainan to a dog is a bit impolite.

"You two wait a moment." Mr. Ji found a place to park and got out of the car.

Still angry, Ji's mother complained to Ji Chaoxi, "Your father knows his health isn't good, yet he still drinks with that group of people. I really can't live like this anymore!"

Ji Chaoxi had heard these words since she was a child, and once she even took them seriously.

At that time, she earnestly said to her mother, "Mom, then you should divorce Dad, and I'll stay with you."

The result was that they were hit with a mixed doubles team.

So later, whenever her mother complained to her, she didn't dare to say a word.

A short while later, Mr. Ji returned happily with two bouquets of flowers and two small cakes.

"It was booked in advance. Didn't you say you liked it before?"

Mr. Ji stuffed the cake and flowers into Mrs. Ji's arms. Mrs. Ji snorted, but her anger was no longer so great.

"Come here, come here, this is my daughter's."

Mr. Ji kept giving Ji Chaoxi meaningful glances. Ji Chaoxi took the flowers, coughed, and said helplessly, "Mom, please forgive Dad. He really knows he was wrong."

Mr. Ji nodded vigorously. Mrs. Ji didn't say anything. Seeing her like this, Mr. Ji immediately knew that she had calmed down and kissed her on the cheek.

"Tsk!" Mrs. Ji wiped her face impatiently.

"Let's go home and make beef noodles for our daughter!"

Mr. Ji gave a shout and continued driving, humming a song.

The villa was very quiet. The servants were cleaning quietly, while the people sitting on the sofa looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Brother's back?" The boy scratched the back of his head.

The atmosphere at home is like it's frozen over. It only feels like this when there's an ice machine at home.

Madam Lu took a sip of tea and nodded solemnly: "You look very sad."

The boy, with his legs crossed and his school uniform loosened, played a game: "When isn't he sad?"

Mr. Lu held the newspaper in his hand, his brows furrowed tightly: "It's that kind of sadness."

The boy said speechlessly, "What kind of sadness? Did you break up again?"

Saying it's a breakup isn't quite accurate; saying it's unrequited love is more accurate.

When his brother was in high school, he was still a junior high school student. He witnessed his brother's anxious and insecure demeanor at home every day.

On the day the college entrance exam ended, the family planned to take Lu Huainan out to relax. However, Lu Huainan burst into tears, and his family was horrified when they saw him like this.

After a combination of comforting words and threats, Lu Huainan finally revealed the reason.

I'm heartbroken.

He and she may never cross paths again; they don't even have a photo together, a photo they should have.

Madam Lu was deeply shocked by these words. After she recovered, she tried to comfort him, but no matter how she tried, it was no use. He just wept with a cold face.

Lu Zhen, who was still in junior high school at the time, stroked his chin and said, "Brother, since you can't bear to part with her, why don't you try to win her back? At least you can call her or something."

"I don't have her phone number..."

"What about WeChat?"

"I don't have her WeChat..."

Lu Zhen sensed the situation was getting serious: "Have they blocked everyone?"

Lu Huainan said with a bitter expression, "I've never had it..."

Lu Zhen sensed something was off: "Brother, have you ever been in a relationship?"

Lu Huainan silently shook his head.

Lu Zhen's lips twitched: "Then this isn't called heartbreak, it's just unrequited love. The other person never accepted you, they probably don't even know who you are."

His brother dares to say he's heartbroken; he's got some nerve.

I don't know if it was because his words were too hurtful, but his brother never spoke to him again after that...

But he was just telling the truth.

Mrs. Lu was clearly thinking about the past. Was this... another failed unrequited love?

The room was dark, with only the light from the phone screen shining through.

Lu Huainan lay on the bed and, for the umpteenth time, clicked into his chat with Ji Chaoxi, silently scrolling through their chat history.

Their conversations used to be very brief, but they've become more frequent recently. However, they spend too little time together, and their chat history is quickly scrolled through.

I really want to chat with her, but what if she's eating right now? What if she's busy? If I text her, she'll probably find it annoying...

But she said he could contact her.

Lu Huainan gritted his teeth, typed for a long time, and deleted and edited before finally sending it.

On the other side, Ji Chaoxi was leisurely lying in the garden enjoying the breeze.

She had just closed her eyes when a dog's nose was suddenly stuffed into her arms.

Without even opening her eyes, she threw the toy in her arms far away.

The golden retriever excitedly chased after it, wagging its tail, but soon came running back.

Ji Chaoxi pretended to be asleep, while the golden retriever silently stared at her from the side, a toy in its mouth.

After staring at it for a while, seeing that Ji Chaoxi was still pretending to be asleep, it got angry and started whining, burying itself in Ji Chaoxi's arms.

Ji Chaoxi's lips twitched. How annoying.

She sat up helplessly, snatched the toy from its mouth, and threw it even further away.

If she keeps throwing them like that, she'll really develop superhuman arms.

She opened her phone and saw a message Lu Huainan had sent half an hour earlier.

[Um... when does school start?]

Ji Chaoxi stared at the message in shock. The holiday had just started, and Lu Huainan was already thinking about starting school?
