Quick Transmigration: Don't Let an Honest Man Become a Villainous Supporting Female Character
Chapter 45 The Female Supporting Character in a Historical Fiction
Qin Du walked to the warehouse, where only an old man guarded the gate. He was wearing a military overcoat, his hands in his pockets, and he glanced at Qin Du.
Qin Du saw an open warehouse. The warehouse was large and contained some goods. In one corner, there was a mattress and some daily necessities.
"Sir, do you live in that warehouse?" Qin Du stepped forward.
The old man sized up Qin Du without saying a word.
Qin Du didn't ask any more questions and left quietly.
A short while later, he returned carrying two rabbits and a fish. He wasn't fully recovered from his illness, and his face was somewhat pale. "Can I stay here during the college entrance exams? I'll bring my sister with me."
The old man's eyes lit up immediately. He quickly took the things from Qin Du's hands and led him into the warehouse.
The old man opened the door. The warehouse was large, with only a few scattered goods inside. It was very dry, with no wind at all, but most importantly, it was quiet.
"This should be enough for you to sleep in, right? I just cleared out all the stock a few days ago, it's quite empty." The old man rubbed his hands together, his breath steaming in the air. "It's enough for dozens of people to sleep in. You gave me a lot, so I won't cheat you."
He led Qin Du out, then closed the warehouse door, his footsteps echoing in the snow.
"It's close to the school here, so you don't have to get up so early in the morning."
The old man led him to the boiler room, where there was another old man. The old man handed the fish to the old man, who glanced at Qin Du.
"We have hot water here too. You're quite clever; you knew there was nowhere else to go, yet you still found this place," the old man said cheerfully.
The old man asked, "A student taking the college entrance exam?"
Qin Du nodded.
The old man huddled in his coat, warming himself by the fire: "Then sleep here. Just bring hot water if you need it. Just lay out some blankets or something. It'll only be for two or three days. This is the county's warehouse."
Qin Du decided to stay here for the two days of the college entrance examination.
But he still felt guilty. If he had been more capable, Ji Chaoxi would have been staying in a state-run guesthouse instead of a warehouse these past few days.
He found a lot of dry wheat straw and spread it on the warehouse floor, several layers in total. The second time he came, he covered it with a thick quilt.
The old man was puzzled: "Why make such a fuss about staying for only two or three days?"
On a day like this, we just need to find a place that's not cold and has hot water; we're not here to enjoy ourselves.
Everything became clear when he saw the person Qin Du was leading.
When Ji Chaoxi saw the warehouse door open, she was somewhat surprised; it was huge.
Qin Du put the things aside and let her sit on the makeshift bed he had made. Ji Chaoxi poked the thick mattress: "Brother Qin Du, did you make all of this?"
Qin Du responded softly and packed her things, saying, "tide tide, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here for the next few days."
Ji Chaoxi lay down on it and laughed, "I'm not wronged at all. I don't want to sleep on a dormitory with so many people."
When she was little, she slept in a dormitory with her sister once. The whole room smelled of feet, and neither she nor her sister could sleep all night.
Qin Du placed the tin thermos in her hands and carried a bucket of hot water for her to wash up. Since the boiler room could heat up food, Qin Du took out the tin box from his bag and prepared to heat up the food for her.
Ji Chaoxi quickly grabbed his clothes: "Brother Qin Du, stop working so hard, sit down and rest for a while, aren't you tired?"
During this time, Qin Du has been working tirelessly for her sake.
I had to find her a car, help her pack her luggage, and organize her documents. Her father had never treated her this well.
Qin Du squatted down beside her, patted her head, and whispered, "I'm not tired, you should rest for a while."
Ji Chaoxi refused to let go of him and even hugged him tightly. Qin Du's heart softened for a moment, and he helped her steady herself, letting her lean against his chest.
"Brother Qin Du, don't be so nervous, okay? It's my exam. I'll take good care of you next time you have an exam." Ji Chaoxi supported herself on Qin Du's body.
Qin Du's throat tightened, he looked away, and responded softly.
Seeing that Qin Du had finally quieted down, Ji Chaoxi was finally satisfied and began to ramble on about her future plans.
"Brother Qin Du, you are the best person to me besides my sister. I will definitely take good care of you in the future, so you won't have to work so hard anymore."
Qin Du took her cold hand and placed it on his face. He whispered, "Xi Xi, it's enough that you take care of your sister. I haven't done anything for you."
Ji Chaoxi snorted and pulled her hand away, leaving Qin Du feeling a void in his heart.
She nestled against him, her forehead pressed against his cheek, their breaths mingling, and neither spoke. This wasn't the normal distance between a man and a woman, yet both indulged in the other's closeness.
Qin Du sometimes feels disoriented, wondering if they would be reported for corruption or hooliganism if they were seen by others.
Qin Du still went to the boiler room to heat up the food, and he made sure to heat up a few extra thermos flasks and put them in Ji Chaoxi's quilt.
Ji Chaoxi slept at the very back of the warehouse, while Qin Du slept at the very front, several meters apart, with boxes in between.
Ji Chaoxi was a little scared when she met Qin Du's gaze.
Qin Du paused for a moment, then smiled at her.
"Don't be afraid, I'll stay here and watch over you."
The next day, Qin Du escorted Ji Chaoxi to the examination hall.
He kept checking to make sure she had everything she needed. Qin Du didn't want to put pressure on her, so he just said that he would go home for a big meal after the exam.
The two stood at the school gate. Ji Chaoxi handed the thermos to Qin Du and then looked at him expectantly.
"Don't be nervous, and don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Although Qin Du said that, he was extremely nervous, his face tense.
Seeing that Ji Chaoxi was still looking at him, Qin Du lowered his head and said softly, "Xixi, let's hug her when we get back. It's not convenient here."
If they were to hug each other in public like that, they might be arrested by the patrol team in the next second.
Ji Chaoxi was extremely nervous a few days before the exam, but on the day of the exam, she wasn't nervous at all.
She has learned everything she was supposed to learn and memorized everything she was supposed to memorize.
Although the two didn't do anything outrageous, their clingy behavior seemed strange to everyone else.
As soon as Ji Chaoxi entered, a man walked over curiously: "Who is she to you? Your sister?"
Qin Du's smile faded instantly, and he looked at him quietly: "Little sister, what's wrong?"
The man chuckled sheepishly, "Nothing much, you just don't look very alike."
"There are quite a few siblings who don't look alike."
Qin Du's gaze lingered on him.
The man felt a little embarrassed by Qin Du's gaze, and he waved his hand, saying, "It's nothing, I was just asking."
From the moment Qin Du and Ji Chaoxi stood there, those probing gazes never disappeared, and the patrol team not far away was also watching them.
The county is more sensitive to such matters than the village.
The village is only so big. If someone reports another person, they should be prepared to be reported by other people in the village.
But the county is different; most people there are strangers, and the patrol teams are much more frequent than in the villages.
