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

Sure enough, Gu Jingcheng was standing half a step behind Jiang Qi, looking at her with an expressionless face and cold eyes.

She was at a loss for a moment and even hurried over to explain to him.

Old Master Gu called out, "Qingqing," and held her down.

Calm down. We can't embarrass Mr. Gu now.

So he adjusted himself and greeted Jiang Qi with a smile: "Hello!"

Jiang Qi had been observing Su Muqing in front of her. Seeing that her outfit was surprisingly inappropriate, she felt that Lin Yue's aesthetic taste was actually quite good.

Su Muqing wore a dark red and white gradient dress, and a headband-like crown inlaid with broken red diamonds on her head. With her bright appearance and beautiful makeup, she looked rich and elegant, like a peony flower, which formed a sharp contrast with Jiang Qi's look today.

Jiang Qi knew what was going on in Su Muqing's mind and also knew that she was not the one finding fault, but there was nothing she could do as the plot required it, so she smiled and said, "Hello." Then she added with some annoyance, "Oh, I didn't know he was married. No one told me when I just came back. This is the first time we meet officially, and I didn't bring any gifts. So although this bracelet of mine is not worth much, it's in good condition. If you don't mind, take it." After she finished speaking, she reached out to take off the bracelet.

It’s not her fault. It was Mr. Gu who said that himself. It was the first time they met.

Su Muqing suddenly felt a little uneasy. He didn't know whether to answer the call or not, so he just stood there in a daze.

The gift had to be returned. Jiang Qi's twisted bracelet was well-known to her. It was an old item from the Republic of China period. Two years ago, at a charity auction to support the disaster area, Mrs. Jiang offered to buy it. However, the young master Gu, now the chairman of the board, bought the bracelet back at a sky-high price of 2000 million yuan, which was only worth 300 million yuan, and returned it to Jiang Qi.

Since she is the elder, the gift she asks for cannot be lower than what she gave. But let's not talk about whether she has 2000 million yuan as a return gift, but it is not appropriate for her to take back what her husband gave.

And I don't know if Jiang Qi did it on purpose or if she was overthinking it. She gave her this bracelet with another meaning: she had worn it before, just like Gu Jingcheng.

While she was thinking, Jiang Qi had already taken off the bracelet and was holding it in front of her with one hand.

She stared at the bracelet for a long time without moving, with her hands folded in front of her stomach, not knowing whether to reach out to take it or not.

Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, Jiang Qi cautiously asked, "Why, you don't like it?"

"No..." Su Muqing was still thinking about what tone and method to use to answer her.

If she accepted the bracelet, it meant that Gu Jingcheng and the bracelet were given to her by Jiang Qi because she didn't want them anymore, and she accepted them. Then this meeting planned by Mr. Gu to declare sovereignty would be meaningless and become a joke, because he didn't care at all.

But if she didn't accept it, Jiang Qi would be considered to be showing goodwill to her. If she didn't accept it, she would appear narrow-minded and damage her reputation. Also, this play was directed by Mr. Gu, and it was for her. If she didn't cooperate, it would be Mr. Gu's face that would be damaged.

"Jiang girl, it's not appropriate for you to give someone something you wear as a gift." Old Master Gu spoke. His tone was not very good and even the smile on his face was almost gone.

Mr. Gu didn't expect Jiang Qi to give away something he was wearing on the spot. This was considered a taboo in the eyes of the older generation.

This is an old rule. You cannot take off the things you are wearing and give them away.

Even if the other person likes it and you really want to give it to them, you have to wait until the two of you separate, go back and wrap it up before giving it to them.

The practice of giving it away just by taking it is like treating beggars badly.

However, in today's new society, few people care about these old rules, even Mr. Gu himself doesn't care too much about them.

But Jiang Qi was different. From what he knew, her mother was very strict with her words and actions and had always taught her according to the old rules. It was impossible for her not to know these etiquettes, and she definitely would not have the courage to lose them in front of so many people.

So he really didn't expect Jiang Qi to do this.

"Did I do anything wrong?" Jiang Qi was a little overwhelmed and took back the hand holding the bracelet, lowering her eyes. She held the bracelet with her index finger and thumb, rubbing the edge of the bracelet. She looked aggrieved like a bullied child.

Before Mr. Gu could speak, Jiang Qi continued with a guilty tone: "I'm sorry, Grandpa Gu, I apologize to you. I don't know what I did wrong. But I definitely didn't mean it. I will definitely change, please don't be angry." The last words were in tears.

Old Master Gu looked at Jiang Qi and felt angry. This was why he didn't like Jiang Qi, leaving her family aside for now.

Just talking about this girl, her style of doing things is really too sinister, and she also knows how to use her innate advantages to make people feel that they are weak. Just like now, it is obvious that she is bullying others and wants to embarrass others, but she is made to look like the bullied party.

He admitted that it was true at the beginning, because he wanted to lose her face. Because he learned from Xu Hao that although the document preparation incident had not been confirmed, it was confirmed that it was done by Jiang Qi. However, he believed, like Gu Jingcheng, that Jiang Qi would not sell out Gu Jingcheng, and there must be other reasons for the Su's incident.

But Su Muqing was misunderstood by Gu Jingcheng because of her, so he wanted to teach her a lesson and let Su Muqing vent her anger.

He thought that Jiang Qi would either endure it or get angry and lose her manners. In the end, she would be embarrassed anyway.

I didn't expect the result to turn out like this. Now the situation is that a child brought a very expensive gift to sincerely wish him a happy birthday. But the old man not only didn't appreciate it, but also brought his granddaughter-in-law to bully the child. He even made the child cry.

Old Master Gu narrowed his eyes and looked at the aggrieved little girl in front of him. He made a wrong move. He knew how good Jiang Qi's image was in the eyes of outsiders, and most people would stand on her side. It was fine for him, but Su Muqing might be talked about.

Gu Jingcheng stood at the back, watching the scene in front of him, his lips moved slightly, and he pursed his lips. He was trying hard to hold back his laughter, because he knew that Jiang Qi was pretending to be aggrieved, and he really wanted to laugh when he saw his grandfather shooting himself in the foot.

He deserved it. Who told him to go and provoke Jiang Qi? It's not the first day he's known her for so many years. Jiang Qi is not Su Muqing. She is not a delicate flower raised in a greenhouse, nor is she a princess living in an ivory tower who has never seen the wind and waves. What kind of woman is this? He knows her vindictive character, but he still has to embarrass her in public.

He didn't want to care about it, he didn't want to offend Jiang Qi. But there was no other way, today was his grandfather's birthday party, he couldn't make it too ugly, he still had to go out and smooth things over.

He walked over and stood side by side with Jiang Qi, raised one hand and casually placed it on her shoulder, leaned closer, and with his other hand he pulled the bracelet out of her hand, raised it up, and turned it over under the light to look at it seriously.

Then he sighed and took his hand back, putting the bracelet into his pocket and said, "Okay, I'll take it."
