Transmigrating into a book and becoming a female supporting character in a sadistic novel

After seeing the person off and closing the door, Jiang Qi turned around and the smile on her face disappeared in an instant.

Shen Zhiyi, who had been invisible just now, knelt down with a bang. However, Jiang Qi acted as if he didn't see anything. He walked around him and returned to his previous seat to continue listening to the opera.

Shen Zhiyi used his knees to change direction and face her. He just knelt there without saying a word.

Jiang Qi ignored him and just looked at the messy table. She reached out and touched it lightly, ringing the copper bell on the table.

The next moment the door opened and a waiter came in. When he saw Shen Zhiyi kneeling there, he was stunned for a moment, but quickly stood beside him as if he hadn't seen him and said respectfully, "Boss."

"Clean up the table and change my tea to this year's Longjing." Jiang Qi ordered in a cold voice, his eyes never leaving the stage below.

"Yes." The waiter responded and quickly picked up the tray to clear the table. After cleaning up, he left without stopping for a moment.

After a while, someone brought new teacups. Just as they were about to leave, Jiang Qi stopped them: "Call Wen Youyou up." When Jiang Qi called them, he didn't even glance at them.

"Boss, the manager has just started to kneel down and burn incense." The man said this without any emotion.

Jiang Qi subconsciously tilted her head to look at the work badge on the man's left chest. When she saw the dark red background, she looked up at his face. He looked to be in his thirties, but Jiang Qi had no impression of him.

In Tingyu Tower, only waiters wear work badges, and these badges are divided into different levels.

According to the color: red, yellow, blue, white. Just like the safety signs, the brighter the color, the higher the level, and the more dangerous it is.

Because the business nature of Tingyu Tower and Jinhuazhai is different, this place is considered her family's ancestral property, which has been around for a hundred years. During this hundred years, they have been doing the same business, and all kinds of systems and rules are perfect.

So no matter what happened, they knew how to deal with it properly, and they could use it at any time if they needed it, without having to spend any time to take care of it. As a result, the original Jiang Qi didn't recognize all the people here until the day she left the country.

But in her memory, there seemed to be only eight people with red work badges, so she searched her memory for a long time before matching the number with the person in front of her. But this person's attitude towards her...

"Ask her to come up." Jiang Qi insisted on what he said just now, but he showed no emotion and was very calm.

"She is kneeling and burning incense. According to the rules, she cannot move before the time comes." The other party remained unmoved.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Qi withdrew her gaze from him, leaned back, and continued to watch the show without saying anything or letting him leave.

However, out of respect, the man didn't dare to leave until Jiang Qi said something, and just stood there.

The play on the stage was still being sung, and just as it reached a small climax, cheers could be heard from downstairs. The three people in the room, one sitting, one kneeling, and one standing, fell into an eerie silence.

It was almost an hour later when this act was finished and the actors temporarily left the stage to rest.

Jiang Qi then shouted in boredom, "Get up." This was said to Shen Zhiyi.

After hearing Jiang Qi's words, Shen Zhiyi hurried to get up, but his legs were numb because he had been kneeling for too long. He had just stood up halfway when he stumbled and fell forward. The person next to him quickly grabbed him and helped him stand up.

Jiang Qi kept glancing at them, and seeing their interactions, she had an idea in her mind.

So this person simply doesn't accept her.

But think about it, this was originally her mother's business, these people must have the same idea as her mother. Only the strong have the right to speak.

Perhaps in their eyes, she, the boss, was the kind of person who couldn't carry anything, couldn't lift anything, and could only use them to scare people. Not only was she useless, but they also had to be responsible for the aftermath.

Originally, this was not a big deal. If you don't agree, then don't agree. Anyway, as long as Tingyu Tower can be used, it's fine.

And judging from their appearances, they are on good terms with Shen Zhiyi, so as long as Shen Zhiyi listens to her, she won't care.

But unfortunately, she had encountered a lot of bad things this morning. So today was their bad luck.

"Let's go and burn incense to the ancestor. We don't want to do business today, so call everyone who needs to be called." After Jiang Qi gave instructions to Shen Zhiyi, he stood up and went out first.

"Yes." Shen Zhiyi agreed and immediately followed Jiang Qi out.

Go downstairs and go from the inner courtyard to the North Garden. The building in the North Garden is the tallest building in the Sifang Garden. The building has a four-story structure in the shape of a Chinese character “U”.

The first floor is the main hall, with a two-meter-high platform in the middle. The second and third floors each have ten private rooms, and the last floor is completely empty, except for an altar on the north side with two tablets on it.

At this time, the fourth floor was already filled with people standing neatly.

Jiang Qi stood in front of the altar, took down three incense sticks, lit them on the candles, bowed, and inserted the incense in her hand. Then she turned around and looked at the person standing behind her.

Jiang Qi first said to Shen Zhiyi: "Everyone is here. Please explain clearly why that happened so that I can judge whether I have punished you wrongly." His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone present to hear.

After Jiang Qi finished speaking, Shen Zhiyi knelt down again.

"Miss, Master Gu told me that you know all the people here. That's why I didn't communicate with you in advance."

"Don't you have a brain?" Jiang Qi said this without giving him any face.

Shen Zhiyi did not refute. Not to mention that the fault was originally his, he also realized that Jiang Qi was probably trying to use him to establish his authority today.

"Whether I know you or not, you should tell me who these people are first, right?" Jiang Qi was presenting facts and reasoning.

"Yes." Shen Zhiyi lowered his head and replied.

Jiang Qi sighed softly, "Alright, get up, you've been punished enough."

"Thank you, Miss." After saying that, Shen Zhiyi stood aside quietly.

Then Jiang Qi looked at Wen Youyou who had been kneeling there. "It's your turn."

"Boss, I have nothing to argue about. I accept the punishment." After saying that, Wen Youyou leaned over and knocked down. A muffled "bang" sound echoed between the floors.

Seeing that she was in that position, Jiang Qi neither stopped her nor said anything. She just turned to the people standing behind her and asked expressionlessly, "Do you have any questions?"

No one answered. The silence was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Speak back!" Jiang Qi raised his voice.

"No!" This time everyone answered in unison.

Hearing the answer, Jiang Qi raised a smile and returned to her usual gentle appearance, "Okay, since you don't have it, then I do. Please answer a few questions for me."

Again, no one responded. After a while, Jiang Qi asked, "Who am I?"

"My boss."

"Tell me again, who am I?" Jiang Qi said in a dissatisfied voice.

"Boss!" This time everyone responded loudly.

Jiang Qi walked slowly to the man who had served her tea and stood in front of him.

"What's your name?" Jiang Qi's voice was still steady. But the question she asked was like a loud slap in the man's face.

Others would be fine, Jiang Qi didn't know him. He was a red-level person in Tingyu Tower, and everyone in the capital knew him. But his own boss said he didn't know him, and he said it in public.

Even if he really didn't know, he shouldn't have asked in public. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face. But everyone present at this time also understood why Jiang Qi did this today.

Judging from their posture, they must be very angry, otherwise the young master would never care about them.

The man's expression remained the same, he just lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Yue Yi."

"Yue Yi..." Jiang Qi chewed these two words in a low voice, looking at the youngest person in the red level, and continued to ask: "Recite the first rule of Tingyu Tower to me."
