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

"what?"

Upon hearing the news, Wu Lixia's hands trembled slightly, and she quickly placed the teacup she was holding on the table.

"He wants to break off the engagement between Qi Ning and our Shi Yi?"

"Yes."

"This……"

"Qi Tongsheng's attitude was very firm, and he even said that it was Qi Ning's idea."

From Qi Ning's perspective, it's perfectly normal for her to want to break off the engagement because she can't accept her fiancé cheating on her with her sister.

However, the Fu family desperately needed this marriage to the Qi family to win over the Qi Group and thus deal with Fu Jinnan together, so they certainly did not want to break off the engagement.

Once the engagement is dissolved, where will they find a suitable marriage again in a short period of time?

In the past, if the Qi family had proposed to dissolve the engagement, they wouldn't have tried to persuade them to stay. Even if they didn't marry into the Qi family, given the Fu family's status, they could easily find another marriage partner for Fu Shiyi.

But now, the affair between Fu Shiyi and Qi Ruo has become a huge scandal, and the news has spread far and wide, ruining Fu Shiyi's reputation.

What decent family would want to marry him? On the contrary, any respectable family that loves their daughter would not agree to let her marry into their family.

For Fu Desheng and his family, making the right choice in this marriage with the Qi family was the best option.

Qi Tongsheng's announcement that he wanted to annul the engagement was certainly not good news.

Fu Desheng said with some regret, "I've been so busy these past few days, dealing with all sorts of things outside, that I forgot to have Shi Yi apologize to Qi Ning. And that kid Fu Shi Yi didn't even mention it himself!"

Ultimately, what they really care about is profit, not Qi Ning.

So after the incident, their first thought was to resolve the external problems, rather than to apologize to Qi Ning.

Fu Desheng and his wife didn't think about it in that way, and Fu Shiyi certainly didn't either.

"Quickly, quickly, get Fu Shiyi over here," Fu Desheng said urgently.

"I'll have him come over right away."

In the past few days, due to the turmoil outside, Fu Shiyi has been almost entirely confined to his home by Fu Desheng, except when he goes to the company with Fu Desheng.

The whole family lives in the old house so it's convenient to discuss matters with Grandpa Fu.

Fu Jinnan, too, has been staying at the old house these past few days.

Wu Lixia quickly summoned Fu Shiyi to Fu Desheng's study.

Fu Shiyi walked in, looking utterly dejected. He asked listlessly, "Dad, what happened again?"

Fu Desheng paced anxiously in his study with his hands behind his back, only stopping when he saw Fu Shiyi enter.

He looked at Fu Shiyi and said, "Qi Tongsheng just called and said he wants to annul your engagement with Qi Ning."

Fu Shiyi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

After a moment, he realized what he meant and replied, "Mm."

Although Fu Shiyi didn't think he and Qi Ruo had done anything wrong, he still felt somewhat guilty towards Qi Ning.

In any case, the love-hate entanglement between him and Qi Ruo still involved Qi Ning, an innocent person.

It's perfectly normal for Qi Ning to want to break off the engagement now, given what happened; someone with Qi Ning's personality wouldn't be able to tolerate it.

Moreover, Fu Shiyi originally wanted to break off the engagement with her, and although the price was higher now, he still achieved his goal, didn't he?

Fu Shiyi thought this way, but Fu Desheng and his wife thought the exact opposite.

Upon hearing Fu Shiyi's nonchalant "hmm," Fu Desheng's anger flared up again.

"Hmm what? What are you hmmming?"

"dad……"

Fu Desheng walked up to Fu Shiyi, stared at him, and asked, "You have no objection to the annulment of the engagement and are very cooperative, right?"

"Dad, that's not what I meant."

Fu Shiyi said with a rare self-deprecating tone, "But things have already come to this. What else can we do but break off the engagement? Do you think Qi Ning would still want to marry me? That's impossible. Don't even think about it. Just agree to break off the engagement."

"So, after breaking off the engagement, you want to marry Qi Ruo, right?"

Fu Shiyi opened his lips, but hesitated to speak.

Before he could say anything, Fu Desheng shouted sternly, "Let me tell you, don't even think about it! I will never let that woman into the Fu family!"

The thought that Qi Ruo had caused such a big problem with their marriage to Qi Ning filled Fu Desheng with anger. How could he possibly agree to Qi Ruo marrying into the family?

Even without this incident, Fu Desheng would not have cared about Qi Ruo's status as an illegitimate daughter.

Not to mention, Qi Tongsheng has never publicly acknowledged Qi Ruolian's status as an illegitimate daughter.

How could someone like that be worthy of marrying Fu Shiyi?

“That’s right.” Wu Lixia added, “Son, it’s impossible for Qi Ruo to enter the Fu family. Your father and I will not agree, and your grandparents will not agree either.”

Fu Shiyi lowered his eyes.

He knew that his family would have a hard time accepting Qi Ruo.

However, even though Qi Ruo's status was not high and her personality was awkward, he just couldn't forget her and wanted to be with her.

Fu Desheng said irritably, "Fu Shiyi, you'd better wake up. What will you get by marrying Qi Ruo? Nothing. Don't you want the Fu Group anymore? Are you going to hand it over to Fu Jinnan?"

Fu Shiyi raised his head: "Mom and Dad, I have no intention of handing over the Fu Shi Group to others, but do I really have to deal with my uncle through a marriage alliance?"

"Yes, I admit that a marriage alliance definitely has its advantages and can bring us great benefits and help. But if I don't have a marriage alliance, can't I deal with my uncle? Even if I marry a woman of ordinary status, I can still control the Fu Group."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Fu Desheng gave him a disdainful sneer.

"Naive! You're quite confident, aren't you!"

Fu Shiyi was indeed quite confident. He felt that his abilities were no less than Fu Jinnan's, and he had no need to rely on a woman through marriage to deal with Fu Jinnan.

Fu Desheng's business acumen and talent were not those of a genius, and his aptitude was not as good as Fu Jinnan's, or even as good as his own son's.

But at his age, with his experience, his basic ability to judge people is still better than Fu Shiyi's.

Fu Shiyi is indeed quite capable, but he is too young, especially a few years ago when he had just graduated and joined the Fu Group. At that time, Fu Jinnan had just been in a car accident and became a vegetable.

No one else in the Fu Group competes with Fu Shiyi. He had been too successful in the past few years and gradually became arrogant and conceited. He was completely unaware of Fu Jinnan's abilities and probably even looked down on Fu Jinnan.

But he was completely wrong. Fu Desheng knew Fu Jinnan's abilities all too well, and he knew that Fu Shiyi might not be able to beat him.

For Fu Shiyi, marriage was the best opportunity to increase his bargaining power.

Now, Fu Shiyi is shamelessly claiming that he doesn't need to rely on marriage alliances or women, which is a bit too confident.

"Let me tell you, Fu Shiyi, you're too confident; that's just blind arrogance!"

“Dad, I really think you value Uncle too much. He’s not as scary as you think. Between me and him, it’s not certain who will win.”

Fu Desheng glared at Fu Shiyi: "Naive! Let me tell you, don't even think about it. Give up on this stupid idea!"

"The marriage with the Qi family can't just end like this. You should contact Qi Ning again, apologize to her, and see if there's any chance to salvage the situation."

"Dad, I don't think this is necessary."

"Did you hear that?!"

Seeing that Fu Desheng was about to lose his temper again, Wu Lixia quickly came over and grabbed Fu Shiyi's arm: "Son, listen to your father. You should contact Qi Ning, apologize to her, and try your best to salvage this marriage. Listen to me."

Fu Shiyi looked at his parents in front of him with a sense of helplessness.

But then he thought again that even if he contacted Qi Ning and apologized to her, given Qi Ning's proud and arrogant nature, she would not forgive him.

To put it dramatically, someone like her, faced with such betrayal, is far more likely to kill him than forgive him.

Since Fu Desheng and Wu Lixia still harbored some hope, he would contact them and show them, so that they would give up completely.

Thinking this, Fu Shiyi replied, "Okay, I'll call her right away."

Seeing that Fu Shiyi was willing to cooperate, Fu Desheng and Wu Lixia both breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Shiyi took out his phone and started calling Qi Ning.
