Transmigrated as the Cannon Fodder Marked by the Villain (GL) - Chapter 23
Jiang Qi’s face was deathly pale. All the words she had prepared earlier were stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
Ruan Jiyan casually toyed with the car key in her hand, her gaze settling on the pink handbag Jiang Qi was desperately trying to conceal.
She certainly had money, but it was money gained from selling her out.
Ruan Jiyan smiled. She knew Jiang Qi well. This person also had an older brother who was a spendthrift and never gave Jiang Qi a penny.
She thought again of Fu Qingyun’s brother, who bought his own sister luxury cars and homes and always kept his word, fulfilling every request Fu Qingyun made.
The disparity between people in this world was immense. The thought of Jiang Qi wanting to latch onto Fu Qingyan and become a rich madame was simply delusional.
“Miss, here is your coffee.”
“Thank you.”
Ruan Jiyan picked up the coffee and took a sip, her smiling gaze fixed on Jiang Qi.
“Yanyan, listen to me, don’t date Fu Qingyun. She is not a good person.”
Fu Qingyun, far away in the villa, sneezed. She rubbed her nose and continued practicing the piano.
Who is speaking ill of her?
After breakfast, with nothing else to do, Fu Qingyun limped around “touring” the large villa her brother had given her, eventually finding a music room inside.
She had initially intended to play an impromptu piece, but upon seeing that the piano was a Steinway, she held back her reckless inner urge.
That’s all money!
Meanwhile, Jiang Qi continued to persuade Ruan Jiyan to break up with Fu Qingyun, listing all of Fu Qingyun’s rumored scandalous acts, hoping to make her scheme succeed.
She never expected Ruan Jiyan’s life to be better than before, even after her family fell apart. Jiang Qi was so jealous her eyes were practically bleeding. She continued relentlessly: “I heard Fu Qingyun played an Omega to death in bed before. It was terrible.”
Ruan Jiyan nearly choked on her coffee.
Being a notorious flirt was one thing, but playing an Omega to death in bed?
What a huge joke. Jiang Qi was really going to great lengths to make her break up with Fu Qingyun, even inventing stories like this.
Ruan Jiyan didn’t know if Fu Qingyun was a flirt; at least she hadn’t seen any other Omegas around her besides herself. But she truly hadn’t heard the rumor about playing an Omega to death in bed.
On the contrary, Ruan Jiyan remembered that Fu Qingyun’s technique that night was excellent, and she occasionally whispered something gentle in her ear, though Ruan Jiyan hadn’t paid attention to a single word.
Alright. Fu Qingyun’s eyes darkened. She finally understood why people would use the phrase “notorious flirt” to describe Fu Qingyun. It was practically her motto.
No wonder her technique and skill that night were enough to make her lose self-control. It was all practiced.
Jiang Qi, seeing a slight change in Ruan Jiyan’s expression, thought she had the upper hand and decided to press on with her advantage.
“Yanyan, haven’t you heard about it?”
Ruan Jiyan shook her head, her mind not focused on Jiang Qi.
“I knew you hadn’t heard! If you really knew, you definitely wouldn’t be with Fu Qingyun.”
At this moment, Ruan Jiyan was only thinking about how many Omegas Fu Qingyun had slept with before meeting her.
“Yanyan, are you listening? I’m genuinely thinking of your well-being.”
“Are you?”
Ruan Jiyan returned to reality and smiled faintly. She extended her beautiful, slender finger and pointed to Jiang Qi’s chest: “Then do you have a heart?”
“Huh?”
Jiang Qi was momentarily confused by Ruan Jiyan’s sudden remark.
“Yanyan, what’s wrong? What do you mean?”
“The wine you gave me that day tasted quite good.”
Jiang Qi’s heart sank. She quickly looked at Ruan Jiyan, her eyes filled with panic and confusion.
Ruan Jiyan’s red lips parted slightly, her expression innocent and pure.
“Did I say something? Why are you reacting so strongly?”
Impossible…
Cold sweat broke out on Jiang Qi’s palms. Ruan Jiyan surely didn’t know that she was the one who had spiked the wine.
“I should actually thank you. If it wasn’t for that cup of wine, I probably wouldn’t have any connection with Fu Qingyun right now.”
“You…”
Jiang Qi was utterly flustered. Her sharp, long nails dug into her palm, and she nearly fell off the chair.
“What are you saying, Yanyan? I truly don’t understand.”
“The Fu family is indeed impressive, and Fu Qingyun treats me exceptionally well,” Ruan Jiyan’s finger rubbed the smooth coffee cup. She suddenly chuckled twice: “You know her methods. If I were to add a little fuel to the fire around her, what do you think would happen?”
Jiang Qi’s heart immediately went cold. She collapsed back into the chair, unable to move.
For Ruan Jiyan to say such a thing proved that she already knew Jiang Qi had drugged and betrayed her.
Jiang Qi hadn’t met Fu Qingyun, but she had heard from many people that this Alpha was tyrannical, cruel, and used her family’s wealth and power to seize what she wanted, even disregarding human life.
Cold sweat trickled down Jiang Qi’s body. Her face was pale, as if she had been terrified.
“But you don’t need to worry. We’re good friends, aren’t we? You are the closest person to me in this world. Why would I let her hurt you?”
At this moment, the person sitting across from her wasn’t Ruan Jiyan, but a demon in beautiful human skin, figuring out how to strip and dissect her.
“Yanyan, I had my reasons…”
Jiang Qi suddenly knelt on the floor. She grabbed Ruan Jiyan’s calf and pleaded in a low voice:
“I was truly forced to do it. Qiao Yunjin insisted on buying you. I was threatened by her and had no choice but to do that.”
“Is that so?”
Ruan Jiyan tilted her head slightly, smiling. She liked seeing her enemies kneel before her, begging for mercy like they had seen a monster. So, no matter how much she loathed Jiang Qi, she thoroughly enjoyed the scene unfolding on the floor.
Everyone in the restaurant noticed the commotion and looked over. Many people were even taking photos and videos to upload online.
Then Fu Qingyun received a video from her friend, Song Nanyan.
[Yun’er, look quickly! I just filmed a sensational video.]
Fu Qingyun instantly spotted Ruan Jiyan, who was smiling with her head bowed, and a woman kneeling in front of her, with fluffy hair and a light yellow…
…down jacket.
She immediately knew what was happening.
It must be that Jiang Qi’s betrayal was exposed by Ruan Jiyan right in front of her. Jiang Qi felt terribly guilty and ashamed, so she knelt to Ruan Jiyan to beg for forgiveness.
Song Nanyan continued messaging: [Isn’t that the Miss Ruan you’ve been chasing for three months? Why didn’t you go play paparazzi today?]
Song Nanyan.
Fu Qingyun looked at the name, and memories about the other party immediately surfaced in her mind.
[I just got back to the country and found a restaurant to eat at, and ran into them. You’re not nearby too, are you?]
Fu Qingyun didn’t bother typing and sent a long voice message back.
Song Nanyan was one of the few decent people among her group of questionable friends, and their relationship was quite good. However, after she went abroad to study, Fu Qingyun was gradually led astray by the others.
She confirmed that Song Nanyan was a friend she could trust.
On the other side, in the restaurant, Song Nanyan, with her large, wavy hair and light makeup, shook her head at the entanglement between the two women. Was this some kind of melodramatic soap opera? But she looked left and right—the woman kneeling on the floor was also an Omega.
Was this Ruan Jiyan’s charm, to make even a delicate, pretty Omega fall for her?
This wasn’t good. It looked like her good friend Fu Qingyun had gained another love rival.
