Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Pei Mo responded with a sound of agreement, neither confirming nor denying, and simply looked at Qi Ning quietly, as if she were a complete stranger.

Qi Ning said, "I plan to move back to my own home."

"Go back to your own home?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Qi Ning asked.

Where is your stepfather?

“My stepfather doesn’t affect me. I used to live under the same roof as him, but he didn’t come home often.”

Qi Ning spoke nonchalantly, as if she really didn't care about her stepfather, a stark contrast to her previous fear of him at the hospital.

Pei Mo realized that he couldn't let Qi Ning do the talking, and he couldn't let her lead him by the nose. The person in front of him was probably not so simple.

"Qi Ning." He called her name.

"Ok?"

"I saw it."

"what?"

Pei Mo said slowly, "Just now, when you poured that glass of wine for Han Yuchen, I was on the balcony outside the hall and saw it all."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Ning's expression changed drastically.

She frantically clutched the hem of her skirt: "Ah, you saw it."

"Yes," Pei Mo asked her, "Why?"

Qi Ning twitched the corners of her lips and replied after a long while, "What else could it be? It's just a little revenge on him. I just made him drink some dirty stuff, not poison him."

Hearing her nonchalant tone, Pei Mo really felt that he had underestimated her.

"Then let me ask you, why were you late today, how did you get the injury on your face, what is the real reason you want to move out of my house, and why were you and Han Yuchen hugging downstairs at noon today?"

Pei Mo blurted out all the questions that had been nagging at him.

Qi Ning's eyes widened in surprise, and she stammered, "At noon...you saw it too at noon?"

"Yes."

Pei Mo also found it quite a coincidence that he happened to see everything.

"Didn't you say you wanted to explain? Can you explain these things to me?"

Qi Ning lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time.

Just when Pei Mo thought she might not answer, she suddenly started unbuttoning her coat one button at a time.

Pei Mo watched her actions, somewhat puzzled.

Soon, Qi Ning took off her coat.

Pei Mo saw her collarbone and arms, which were hidden under her coat.

It turned out that she not only had injuries on her face, but also bruises around her collarbone and on her arms.

Pei Mo's expression turned serious: "What's going on?"

Qi Ning's eyes reddened: "My stepfather..."

"you……"

"Don't worry, he didn't succeed."

Qi Ning sighed: "That's how I got the injuries on my face and body. Because of these injuries, I hesitated to come, but I came anyway, which is why I'm late."

She explained Pei Mo's doubts one by one.

"The reason for the hug is that Han Yuchen also knows about this, and he pities me."

"As for why I want to move out of your house, it's because Han Yuchen thinks it's not safe for me to live with my stepfather and wants me to move out. I'm afraid he'll find out that I'm living in your house."

Qi Ning explained everything one by one. At first glance, everything seemed to make sense, but Pei Mo felt for some reason that something was still not quite right.

"Just because of this?"

"Yes."

Pei Mo stood up: "Qi Ning, you didn't tell me the truth."

"I'm telling the truth," Qi Ning argued.

"That means you didn't tell the whole story."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ning fell silent, and Pei Mo knew he had guessed correctly.

He calmly added, "If you don't want to tell me, then I won't ask. From now on, I won't interfere in your affairs."

After saying that, he made a move to walk out.

Just as he was about to reach the door, Qi Ning suddenly called out to him, "Pei Mo!"

Pei Mo turned around and saw Qi Ning standing by the sofa, looking at him with tears streaming down her face.

"I'm telling you the truth."

"Then tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Sobbing, Qi Ning gritted her teeth and said, "I want to kill Qi Huajiang!"

"what?"

Pei Mo knew, of course, that Qi Huajiang was the name of Qi Ning's stepfather.

“I said, I want to kill Qi Huajiang!” Qi Ning repeated.

Looking into Qi Ning's resolute and hateful eyes, Pei Mo realized that she might be serious.

Pei Mo was stunned for a long time.

"Because he harbored ill intentions towards you, you wanted to kill him?"

“It’s not just that, it’s not just like that,” Qi Ning said, crying.

Her right hand gripped the back of the sofa tightly, as if using the sofa to support her swaying body.

“Pei Mo, you don’t know, Qi Huajiang is a scumbag. He always presents himself as a good husband and father in public, but in reality, he has a bad habit of alcoholism and domestic violence. Ever since I came to Nancheng with my mother when I was a child, in my memory, my mother would be abused by him every few days.”

"This went on for over ten years. My mother died in a car accident, but Qi Huajiang wasn't sad at all. He was even very happy because he had already bought insurance for my mother. After my mother died, he successfully received a huge insurance payout, quit his job, and pretended to be heartbroken and dejected to squander the money."

"And then there's my attitude towards me... He wasn't like this when my mom was alive, but ever since she passed away a year ago, he's had no inhibitions whatsoever."

Hearing Qi Ning's tearful words, Pei Mo realized that Qi Ning had grown up in such a family, which explained why she had developed such a timid and cowardly personality.

Moreover, given her description of these events, it's understandable that she hates her stepfather so much, even wanting him dead.

However, Pei Mo had to remind her: "Qi Ning, murder is illegal. You can't ruin your life for someone like that."

"I know, of course I know." Qi Ning wiped the tears from her face. "So, I don't plan to do it myself."

Not planning to do it yourself?

Pei Mo immediately had a guess: "Is this related to Han Yuchen?"

"Yes."

Qi Ning raised her head, a half-smile on her face: "Pei Mo, do you know, Han Yuchen actually fell in love with me, and he even confessed to me."

Pei Mo had long realized that Han Yuchen liked Qi Ning, but she was still slightly surprised when Qi Ning said that Han Yuchen had already confessed to her.

"Isn't it absurd?" Qi Ning smiled sarcastically. "He actually said he's fallen for me and wants to be with me."

“I didn’t know what I did wrong before. He would bully me for no reason. But this awful person actually said that he liked me.”

“When he learned that my stepfather was plotting against me, he was furious. He said he wanted to kill Qi Huajiang for me.”

Upon hearing this, Pei Mo's brow twitched.

"So you agreed?"
