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

When Qi Tongsheng got to this point, he found it difficult to speak.

“After the incident, I didn’t know who your Aunt Shen was. I gave her some money and told her to buy birth control pills herself. Then I left and haven’t been in contact with her since.”

“I didn’t dare tell your mother about this. First, I was afraid she would blame me, and second, she was pregnant at the time, and I was afraid of upsetting her, so I had to keep it a secret.”

"Until this year, I ran into you, Aunt Shen, by chance. After hearing her explanation, I learned that she still got pregnant despite taking birth control pills back then, and because she wasn't in good health, the doctor didn't recommend that she have an abortion."

"She gave birth to Ruoruo alone, which damaged her health and made her unable to conceive afterward. As a result, she was unable to have children after she got married, which led to her ex-husband's disdain and their divorce."

“Back then, she was just a hotel waitress who was innocently dragged into this mess and then had Ruoruo. After learning about these things, I took them home out of guilt.”

Qi Ning couldn't help but chuckle as she listened to the classic, formulaic plot.

In that sense, Shen Yunhui and Qi Ruo, mother and daughter, seem so innocent and pitiful. No wonder Qi Tongsheng feels sorry for them.

It is precisely because the female protagonist of this novel is Qi Ruo, and the story mainly revolves around Qi Ruo's return to her biological father's home as a stepdaughter, her being bullied by her stepsister, and her entanglement with her stepsister's fiancé, that the mother and daughter did not recognize Qi Tongsheng until Qi Ruo was twenty-two years old.

If the female protagonist of this story were Shen Yunhui, she certainly wouldn't have waited more than twenty years to reunite with Qi Tongsheng; she would have already become entangled with him, their love and hate intertwined.

When Qi Tongsheng heard Qi Ning's laughter, he thought she didn't believe him.

"Ningning, Daddy didn't lie to you this time, it's all true."

He explained somewhat hastily, "As for why I kept it from you and didn't tell you the truth, it's just because I was afraid you would be heartbroken if you knew the truth. That's why I let Ruoruo enter the Qi family as a stepdaughter."

"So you think it's unfair to let Qi Ruo into the Qi family as a stepdaughter?" Qi Ning asked.

That was indeed what Qi Tongsheng was thinking.

After all, Qi Ruo was his biological daughter. He had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father for more than 20 years. Now, he was taking her and her mother home and making her hide her identity, which was indeed unfair to her.

Putting aside everything else, just from the perspective of outsiders, Qi Tongsheng's biological daughter and stepdaughter are definitely treated differently, and others may very well look down on her because of her status as a stepdaughter.

However, Qi Tongsheng denied it when Qi Ning asked him the question.

"Of course not, Ningning, why would you think that?"

He added, “Not only did I not mean that, but neither did your Aunt Shen and your sister. They said at the time that as long as they could have a home to shelter them from the wind and rain, they didn’t mind coming back as stepdaughters.”

From Qi Tongsheng's perspective, he naturally felt that Qi Ruo and her daughter were understanding and that he had wronged them.

Even if Qi Tongsheng doesn't admit it, Qi Ning can guess what he really thinks.

She bluntly exposed him: "Don't try to fool me with these words. I know you must feel that this is unfair to Qi Ruo, and that she will be looked down upon by people in the circle as a stepdaughter entering the Qi family, right?"

Qi Tongsheng never expected that Qi Ning would discover he was lying. Not only that, she also guessed his true thoughts perfectly.

He was speechless for a moment.

Qi Ning looked at Qi Tongsheng with a mocking gaze: "You only think that Qi Ruo's status as a stepdaughter will be looked down upon, but does that mean she won't be looked down upon for entering the Qi family as an illegitimate child?"

"In my opinion, the status of an illegitimate daughter is not necessarily more noble than that of a stepdaughter, is it?"

Qi Tongsheng's face stiffened.

Qi Ning kept referring to Qi Ruo as her illegitimate daughter, which was unpleasant to hear, but what she said wasn't entirely unreasonable.

"Did I guess it right?"

Qi Ning pretended to be sad and whispered, "Dad, you just said you wouldn't lie to me anymore, but look what happened, you lied to me again."

"Ning Ning, I..."

Qi Tongsheng lowered his head, feeling guilty.

"And another thing," Qi Ning asked again, "You said that you were drugged back then, and that what happened was an accident. Was it really an accident? Were you truly unconscious at the time?"

Qi Tongsheng fell completely silent.

Discussing such matters with his own daughter had already made him lose face, and Qi Ning's question just now left him speechless.

consciousness?

Of course, there is still a little bit.

It's impossible if there's absolutely none...

At least he knew he had been tricked, and he knew the woman he was with was not his wife, Lin Fei.

He was under the influence of drugs at the time and couldn't control himself.

Qi Tongsheng knew that this whole thing was his fault. He had been careless and fallen into someone else's trap, had a relationship with Shen Yunhui, and then failed to handle the aftermath properly, resulting in Shen Yunhui getting pregnant.

If it weren't for him, neither mother nor daughter would have been hurt.

Qi Tongsheng knew he had made a mistake, betrayed Lin Fei, and felt guilty towards her and Qi Ning, so he had been trying his best to make amends over the years.

Lin Fei was diagnosed with stomach cancer ten years ago, and he took meticulous care of her. Five years ago, Lin Fei passed away due to the illness, and he still did not remarry. Instead, he raised his daughter Qi Ning for five years.

Qi Tongsheng did feel guilty towards Lin Fei, but in his view, he did not betray her intentionally; it was just an accident.

He has almost repaid his guilt towards Lin Fei and Qi Ning over the years.

But Shen Yunhui and Qi Ruo are different. They have suffered for so many years, yet he has not fulfilled any of his responsibilities. He should make it up to them.

However, Lin Fei was his wife whom he had loved for many years, and Qi Ning was the daughter he had raised since childhood. Their feelings for each other were incomparable, which is why Qi Tongsheng was more inclined to favor them at this time.

"Dad, why aren't you saying anything?" Qi Ning asked. "Can't you answer?"

"Mom is so pitiful. She struggled with you for many years to start your business, and suffered so much. She ruined her health. Otherwise, how could she have gotten stomach cancer? But what did she get in return? Your betrayal."

"She didn't know you had betrayed her until she died..."

"Stop talking!" Qi Tongsheng interrupted Qi Ning.

He rubbed his temples before saying to Qi Ning, "Ningning, this was all an accident, a series of unfortunate events. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I assure you, Yunhui and Ruoruo won't affect you in any way."

"You've already brought them home, mother and daughter, and you still say it won't affect me. Are you planning to give them a share of the company you and your mother co-founded?" Qi Ning asked sharply.

"Of course not, how could that be!" Qi Tongsheng vehemently denied.

"You still say you won't? You've already arranged for Qi Ruo to work at Qi's Group, isn't the next step to let her take over the company?"

“Ningning, I only arranged for Ruoruo to work in the company because I wanted to give her a job. She won’t threaten your position in the company,” Qi Tongsheng said.

"Moreover, before your mother passed away, I promised her that I would only hand over our company to her only daughter, who is you, and it would never be given to anyone else."

"Are promises reliable? I doubt your promises either, which is why she transferred all her shares to me before she died."

Qi Tongsheng said, "Ningning, I did bring Ruoruo and her mother back to make amends to them, but I will absolutely not harm your interests. Ruoruo and her mother are not greedy people. They don't have such thoughts. They just want a place to settle down."

Qi Ning crossed her arms and said, "Dad, haven't you lied to me enough? I don't believe you anymore."

When she said this, her face was cold, but her eyes were slightly red.

When Qi Tongsheng saw her like this, he felt both helpless and heartbroken.

Qi Ning used to be very attached to him, often whispering sweet nothings in his ear that she loved her father the most and trusted him the most. But now, she said coldly that she no longer trusted him.

But she was right, he did lie to her first, and it's no wonder she lost trust in him.

Qi Tongsheng knew that Qi Ning was actually very sensible and understanding. After he proposed to marry Shen Yunhui, she immediately expressed her support and tolerantly accepted her stepmother and stepsister.

Before she learned the truth today, she had always been a well-behaved and sensible daughter, as well as a generous and considerate older sister.

The fact that things have turned out this way is not Qi Ning's fault.

Qi Tongsheng had no choice but to ask her, "Then what do you want Dad to do to make him believe me, forgive me, and stop blaming your Aunt Shen and your sister? How can our family get along as harmoniously as before?"

Qi Ning had been waiting for these words.

At this moment, Qi Tongsheng still felt guilty and sorry for her.

If, as in the original story, the original owner started by making a huge fuss and refusing to listen to his explanations, and targeting Qi Ruo and her daughter at every turn, then Qi Tongsheng would quickly lose patience with her and become biased towards Qi Ruo and her daughter.

Qi Ning could not guarantee that she would not harm Qi Ruo and her daughter later, nor could she guarantee that Qi Tongsheng would always side with her.

After all, people's hearts can change. In the original story, didn't Qi Tongsheng eventually abandon the daughter he once loved the most?

Therefore, she needed to seize the opportunity to make demands on Qi Tongsheng and get what she deserved while Qi Tongsheng's heart still leaned towards her, his daughter.

"Anything is fine?" Qi Ning asked.

Qi Tongsheng replied firmly, "I'll agree to anything Dad can do."

Since that was the case, Qi Ning made no attempt to hide her feelings and directly stated her request: "I want shares in the company."

Qi Tongsheng paused for a moment: "You mean?"

“My meaning is very clear,” Qi Ning said, looking at Qi Tongsheng. “I want the shares you hold.”

Qi Tongsheng seemed surprised by Qi Ning's request. He was momentarily stunned and did not respond immediately.

Qi Ning then said, "Didn't you say that the company would be given to me sooner or later? So, whether it's the shares under Mom's name or Dad's name, aren't they all mine?"

“The shares that Mom used to own have long been transferred to my name, but the shares Mom gave me weren’t many; most of the shares are still in your name.”

"Since you say that the shares under your name will eventually be mine, then give them to me as soon as possible. Otherwise, I can hardly help but suspect that you want to give the shares to Shen Yunhui and Qi Ruo, mother and daughter."

Qi Tongsheng gave a bitter smile: "Ningning, do you really not trust your father?"

"Dad, can you trust me?"

Qi Ning looked at Qi Tongsheng with a sad yet stubborn gaze. She said, "It's very simple to make me believe you. Just give me the shares. If you don't agree now, it's hard for me to believe you."

Qi Tongsheng certainly didn't intend to deceive Qi Ning; his initial plan was to leave the Qi Group to Qi Ning.

As for Qi Ruo and Shen Yunhui, all he needs to do is ensure that the mother and daughter live a good life, give Qi Ruo a good job, and find her a good marriage.

Now, Shen Yunhui and her daughter are living a good life. He arranged for Qi Ruo to work in the Qi Group, and he also found her a wealthy fiancé, which can be considered as fulfilling his responsibilities.

The reason he didn't immediately agree to Qi Ning's request was that, according to his plan, he didn't intend to transfer all the shares to her name so soon.

Qi Ning's request came as a surprise; he wasn't prepared for it.

But after hearing Qi Ning's words, Qi Tongsheng began to seriously consider her request.

“Let your father think about it,” he said.

Qi Ning quieted down and let Qi Tongsheng consider it.

Qi Tongsheng thought to himself that the Qi Group was founded by him and Lin Fei, so naturally they held the most shares.

Since Lin Fei transferred her shares to Qi Ning, he is still the largest shareholder of the Qi Group, but Qi Ning has become the second largest shareholder.

If he were to give all the shares under his name to Qi Ning, then Qi Ning would have absolute control of the Qi Group, which would naturally be inappropriate.

After a long while, Qi Tongsheng spoke again: "Ningning, I'll transfer half of my shares to you first, and I'll make a will to give you the other half after I pass away, how about that?"

He kept half of it mainly as a safeguard. He wasn't worried about what Qi Ning would do to him; what he was worried about was that Qi Ning would force Shen Yunhui and her daughter Qi Ruo to leave.

If that's the case, he still has some shares, which can provide some security for the mother and daughter.

"Half won't do, it has to be at least 60%," Qi Ning said.

If Qi Tongsheng transfers 60% of his shares to her, plus the shares she already holds, she will have relative control of the Qi Group.

"Okay." After a moment's thought, Qi Tongsheng agreed.

"Then sign the transfer contract as soon as possible, and make the will as soon as possible," Qi Ning added.

To reassure Qi Ning, Qi Tongsheng had no choice but to agree: "Okay."

Qi Ning's expression softened: "Dad, I know my request was a bit excessive, but I didn't expect you to actually agree to it."

Qi Tongsheng smiled and said, "Of course, the Qi Group was going to be yours anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's given to you sooner or later, now you believe your father, right?"

Qi Ning smiled slightly: "Dad, as long as you love me and Mom the most, that's enough. Actually, I don't care about the shares. I just want you to prove it through the shares."
