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

“Of course not,” Wen Xuheng immediately denied.

Qi Ning's smile faded: "Wen Xuheng, you don't actually like me. You just like the childhood playmate in your memory. That childhood playmate makes you feel relaxed and allows you to forget the pressure from your parents and other sources. It's a spiritual sustenance you've found for yourself."

"If you really liked me, you wouldn't miss those details. You only seem to like me, but actually you only care about yourself."

At this point, Qi Ning recalled the original owner's situation, and a hint of melancholy appeared in her expression.

"But do you know how much trouble your 'self-righteous liking' has caused me?"

"Do you know that I once thought about ending my life because of that bullying?"

“I…” Wen Xuheng couldn’t utter a complete sentence.

He found that what Qi Ning said made a lot of sense, and he couldn't refute it at all.

Just then, Pei Mo's car arrived.

He spotted Qi Ning and Wen Xuheng talking by the roadside from a distance.

Pei Mo's brows furrowed with a hint of coldness. As soon as the car stopped, he got out and walked towards Qi Ning.

"Ning Ning."

Qi Ning turned around, a faint smile on her face: "You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long."

His words revealed a mixture of intimacy and resentment, a stark contrast to his impatience and distance when facing Wen Xuheng earlier.

Pei Mo walked quickly to Qi Ning's side, took her hand, and said with his head down, "We were stuck in traffic for a while."

"Oh, I see. No wonder it took so long."

"You should have waited for me to arrive before coming downstairs. Don't come down so early next time and wait foolishly."

"I understand." Qi Ning nodded.

The two exchanged a few words as if no one else was around before Pei Mo finally looked at Wen Xuheng: "Isn't this President Wen? What were you two talking about just now?"

Wen Xuheng felt guilty after hearing Qi Ning's words and had no face to plead for the Han family anymore.

He didn't want Pei Mo to misunderstand Qi Ning, and was about to say that he had just happened to run into Qi Ning while passing by, but before he could speak, Qi Ning had already answered first.

"Premier Wen came to plead with me on behalf of his wife."

"To plead with you?"

"Yes, you find it strange too, don't you? I haven't done anything to the Han family or Mrs. Wen, so why is he coming to me to plead for him?"

Pei Mo understood what was going on as soon as he heard it.

On the contrary, Wen Xuheng felt ashamed when he heard these words, and he found it even more irritating to see Qi Ning and Pei Mo interacting intimately.

Pei Mo said to Wen Xuheng, "Mr. Wen, it's no use coming to my fiancée about those things. She doesn't care about such trivial matters. If you have something to say to me, you can come to me with Mrs. Wen."

"My fiancée and I are in a hurry to get home, so we won't chat with Mr. Wen any longer. Goodbye."

After leaving those two sentences, Pei Mo said to Qi Ning, "Let's go home."

Qi Ning responded and got into the car with Pei Mo and left.

Once in the car, Pei Mo still held Qi Ning's hand tightly.

Qi Ning felt her hand was being held too tightly, so she pulled away, and Pei Mo finally let go of her.

But the moment he let go of her hand, Pei Mo pulled her into his arms again.

"What did you talk about with him?" Pei Mo asked, looking into her eyes.

"It was him who pleaded with me," Qi Ning said.

"Besides this?"

Pei Mo didn't believe they only talked about this matter. Judging from Wen Xuheng's expression, they must have discussed other topics as well.

Qi Ning frankly told him, "Besides this, I was just curious and asked him if he knew that Han Yuchen bullied me because of him back then."

"How did he say?"

He said he didn't know it was because of him.

Pei Mo smiled sarcastically and commented with four words: "Blind to the eye and blind to the heart."

At this point, Qi Ning asked Pei Mo, "What are your plans regarding the Han family?"

Pei Mo didn't involve Qi Ning in the matters concerning the Han family, but he didn't deliberately hide them from her either.

Besides, it can't be kept secret; these stories can be seen everywhere in the news.

Pei Mo explained, "I didn't intend to wipe them out. I just didn't want you to be in danger again, I didn't want them to appear in front of us again, and I didn't want them to disturb our lives again."

Sometimes, leaving the other party with a bit of breathing room to struggle is more meaningful than completely eliminating them. The other party will even be grateful for it, unaware that they are falling into another abyss.

Qi Ning understood what Pei Mo meant. She leaned against him and hummed in agreement.

Although doing this might give Han Yuchen the possibility of retaliation the next time he comes out, it's nothing to be afraid of.

After all, Qi Ning has a system that monitors the Han family's every move at all times, so she will know immediately if there is any abnormality or danger.

Pei Mo wouldn't be unaware of this, and would certainly take precautions.

Qi Ning was very satisfied with Pei Mo's plan, and she curled her lips into a smile from an angle where he couldn't see her.

Pei Mo stroked Qi Ning's long hair, then picked up a strand and twirled it between his fingers.

He whispered in her ear, "I'll handle it, you don't need to worry."

"Okay, I believe you," Qi Ning replied softly.

Upon hearing this, Pei Mo gently touched her hair with his thin lips.

Wen Xuheng returned home in a daze, and Han Yuxin immediately came to greet him, asking anxiously, "Xuheng, how did it go? Did Qi Ning agree?"

Wen Xuheng finally came to his senses. He walked past Han Yuxin, sat down on the sofa, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he feel a little more awake.

Han Yuxin caught up with him, sat down next to him, and shook his arm, urging him, "What happened? Tell me quickly."

Wen Xuheng glanced at her, his eyes colder than ever before, and replied, "She didn't say anything."

Han Yuxin didn't notice Wen Xuheng's unusual behavior; all she could think about was how to solve the company's problems.

She pressed further, "What do you mean by 'didn't say anything'?"

“At that time, Pei Mo came and said that Qi Ning was not involved in this matter, and told us to go and talk to him.”

"That's it."

Han Yuxin let go of Wen Xuheng, feeling somewhat disappointed. She had originally thought that Wen Xuheng would persuade Qi Ning.

If Qi Ning were to agree, it would be far more effective for her to say something to Pei Mo than for them to do so.

However, Han Yuxin quickly changed her mind. Since Pei Mo had asked them to talk to him, it seemed there was still a chance for things to turn around.

The next day, Han Yuxin dragged Wen Xuheng along to find Pei Mo.

As expected, Pei Mo met with them this time.

Pei Mo agreed to leave the Han Group a way out, but on one condition: the entire Han family must leave Nancheng and never appear under his and Qi Ning's noses again.

This "entire Han family" refers not only to Han's father, mother, and Han Yuxin, but also to Wen Xuheng and his parents who are related to the Han family, as well as Han Yuchen who is in prison.

After Han Yuchen is released from prison next time, he must also leave Nancheng, and he must not seek revenge again, nor appear in front of him and Qi Ning again.

If they can't do it, Pei Mo naturally has other ways to deal with them.

Han Yuxin had no choice but to agree.

After this ordeal, although the Han Group did not ultimately go bankrupt, it was not far from it.

Not only did their entire family have to leave Nancheng, but their company and other businesses also had to relocate from Nancheng, which was equivalent to abandoning their original market.

Han Yuxin and Wen Xuheng will soon find that saving a heavily indebted, barely surviving company is worse than letting it go bankrupt.

How will this couple's relationship fare amidst mounting debt, corporate chaos, and visibly increasing family conflicts?

Of course, this is a story.

Pei Mo and Qi Ning no longer cared what would happen to the Han and Wen families; they had more important things to do.

Pei Mo and Qi Ning's wedding was set for a month from now, which was a bit rushed.

Qi Ning didn't care much about pomp and circumstance, but Pei Mo was much stricter.

Because of their wedding, Pei's parents, who hadn't been back to China for a long time, returned, and various relatives, business partners, and company executives of the Pei family also received invitations.

Qi Ning has no parents and no other close relatives. She told Pei Mo that she has no relatives on her side, only a few colleagues from her small studio and a few friends abroad who need to send out invitations.

Besides that, there's Pei Mo and Qi Ning's high school classmate.

Most of their high school classmates were very surprised when they received the invitations. They never expected that Pei Mo and Qi Ning would actually get married.

Only Han Yuxin and Wen Xuheng, a married couple, did not receive an invitation.

When they received the invitations, the classmates created a small group to discuss the matter.

On the wedding day, they gathered together and started gossiping.

Although most classmates were surprised by this, some classmates were "wise after the event" and boasted: "Didn't you guys notice? At the last class reunion after they returned to China, the two of them seemed quite ambiguous."

"But didn't they say they weren't together?"

"That means they got together after the party."

"That class reunion was only a few months ago. Even if they got together after the reunion, their progress is too fast. They actually got married."

Some people speculated, "Isn't Qi Ning living at Pei Mo's house? Being close to the water tower gives her an advantage."

"That makes sense," the crowd agreed.

"However, even if Pei Mo agrees, how did the Pei family agree? Aren't families like theirs the most particular about marrying someone of equal social standing? Qi Ning comes from an ordinary family and is an orphan. How did she get past the Pei family parents' approval?"

"Who knows? I guess Pei Mo insisted, and his parents had no choice but to agree. We'll see how the Pei family reacts later."

However, the reaction of the Pei family elders after the wedding officially began surprised them all.

All the Pei family members wore smiles of blessing. Pei's parents even said in front of everyone that since Qi Ning had no parents, they would be Qi Ning's parents from now on, and they would treat her as their own daughter.

His words were full of support for his daughter-in-law, Qi Ning, and a desire to vindicate her.

Qi Ning, dressed in a pure white wedding gown, stood next to Pei Mo, who was dressed in a black suit. They looked like a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman.

Amidst the blessings of their guests, they exchanged wedding rings and smiled at each other.
