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

Meng Shaoqing's body stiffened slightly for a moment.

"No," he denied immediately, "it's nothing."

"I was just a little drunk, that's why I came back so late. Please don't be angry with me, my wife."

Qi Ning was not satisfied with the answer she wanted, and asked again, "Is that all? There's no other reason. Something seems very wrong with you."

"Nothing."

Once you've lied once, it seems easier to lie again.

Meng Shaoqing didn't want Qi Ning to ask any more questions, so he lowered his head and kissed Qi Ning on the lips, then looked at her intently.

“Ah Ning, it’s been so long since we last met.”

Qi Ning looked into Meng Shaoqing's eyes and immediately understood what he meant.

"What? What? It's been a long time? Didn't we just have it last night?"

Previously, in order to allow Meng Shaoqing to focus on preparing for the imperial examination, Qi Ning had specifically ordered him to abstain from sex, even though Meng Shaoqing said it wouldn't have any impact. Qi Ning still disagreed.

Meng Shaoqing had no choice but to listen to Qi Ning. After holding it in for a long time, he finished the exam yesterday and made Qi Ning repay the debt he owed him that night.

Now he seems to have lost his memory, saying something about how long it's been since he's done that.

Qi Ning wanted to push Meng Shaoqing away; she still had questions for him and wanted to talk to him about Meng Jiyang.

Meng Shaoqing replied, "But I think..."

After saying that, he hugged Qi Ning tightly and lowered his head to kiss her lips again.

No longer as easily broken as before, but with an unprecedented strength.

He cut off Qi Ning's unfinished words.

"You... um..."

The system was somewhat disappointed. It was expecting to see some excitement, but instead it was presented with this inappropriate scene for children, which it couldn't watch, so it had to go into the dark room.

The next day.

Last night, Meng Shaoqing and Qi Ning spent the whole night in absurdity, and they didn't get up until the sun was high in the sky.

After Qi Ning got up, she waited for Meng Shaoqing. However, when Meng Shaoqing came out after changing his clothes, he looked like he was about to go out.

"stop!"

Qi Ning called out to him.

Meng Shaoqing stopped at the doorway instinctively.

Qi Ning stood up, walked in front of him, and blocked his way, asking with a stern face, "Where are you going?"

Meng Shaoqing forced a smile and said casually, "I have some things to take care of when I go out."

"what's up?"

Qi Ning is determined to get to the bottom of this today.

She put her hands on her hips and said, "Yesterday you gave me detailed instructions before you left, but today you've changed. You want to leave without explaining anything clearly. And what happened last night, you didn't explain it clearly either. You're not allowed to leave until you explain it clearly!"

Meng Shaoqing looked at the angry Qi Ning in front of him.

He didn't want to talk about it, didn't want to tell Qi Ning that he had met Meng Jiyang, and didn't want her to know that Meng Jiyang was not dead.

She refused to submit to Chen Dahu's advances even at the cost of her life in order to protect Meng Jiyang's innocence, which shows Meng Jiyang's importance to her.

Meng Jiyang was, after all, her first husband, and she definitely cared about him. If it weren't for Meng Jiyang's death, leaving her helpless and alone, and his coincidence in saving her twice, she probably wouldn't have married him.

Meng Shaoqing knew that Qi Ning had the right to know, and he shouldn't have kept it from her.

But if she finds out about this, she might leave him, which would be tantamount to handing Qi Ning over to him.

They had already paid their respects to heaven and earth and drunk the nuptial wine; Qi Ning was his wife.

Meng Shaoqing couldn't bring himself to give his wife away to someone else.

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, he doesn't want to take that risk.

At this moment, Meng Shaoqing was struggling with whether to expose Meng Jiyang's participation in the imperial examination while he was still in mourning, so that he would be punished and never be able to appear in front of Qi Ning again, as if he were really dead.

Although it might seem despicable to actually do that, Meng Shaoqing didn't care about being despicable anymore; he just didn't want Qi Ning to leave him.

However, even if Meng Shaoqing exposes Meng Jiyang and he is punished for it, it is not a death sentence. As long as he is alive, he may be exposed one day. This method can only solve the immediate problem and cannot completely solve the problem.

If the truth comes out someday, not to mention anything else, what if Qi Ning hates him?

Unless we can come up with a foolproof solution.

From last night until now, Meng Shaoqing has been thinking for a long time. He doesn't want to hide it from Qi Ning, doesn't want to lie to Qi Ning, and doesn't want Qi Ning to hate him in the future.

But he didn't want Qi Ning to leave him even more.

He still hadn't decided what to do, so he could only coax Qi Ning gently: "It's my fault. Today's matter was rather urgent, and I didn't have time to say more. It's not that I didn't want to talk to you."

"No, you can only leave after you've explained yourself clearly." Qi Ning's attitude was firm.

Meng Shaoqing knew he couldn't stay any longer; facing Qi Ning, he couldn't deceive her again.

"Ah Ning, wait for me to come back. I will definitely tell you everything when I come back."

He had to go out and take care of something; there was one thing he needed to figure out.

After saying this, Meng Shaoqing took advantage of Qi Ning's inattention and strode away, bypassing her.

Qi Ning hadn't expected Meng Shaoqing to react this way. Looking at his retreating figure, she shouted, "Meng Shaoqing! If you dare go out, don't come back!"

Meng Shaoqing paused slightly, but continued walking out, and soon disappeared from sight.

Qi Ning was furious. She supported her back and sat down on the small couch: "Well, well, you've really gotten bolder now. You dare to disobey me and have learned to be dishonest. You even dare to lie to me. Men really are all fickle!"

The system, always eager for drama, remarked: "Meng Shaoqing isn't just being bold; he's practically consumed by jealousy."

"As for your opinion that he is dishonest, do you think he would honestly explain such things to you? That would either be too careless or he doesn't care about you at all."

Qi Ning said irritably, "You're still defending him."

Fearing being affected by the system's anger, it quickly said, "This shows that Meng Shaoqing cares about you and is afraid of losing you. You have no idea how much his affection value increased overnight last night."

Qi Ning knew she couldn't explain it to the system; it only cared about that so-called "love value."

She slammed her hand on the coffee table and snorted.

"Let's wait for him to come back. If he still doesn't tell me he met Meng Jiyang when he gets back, then I'll tell him I met Meng Jiyang. I'll just have to expose this whole thing."

Speaking of which, Qi Ning did indeed meet Meng Jiyang on the day he sent Meng Shaoqing to take the imperial examination. Now that Meng Shaoqing has just finished the examination, it is only reasonable for Qi Ning to expose this matter.

Meng Shaoqing really did have something to take care of when he came out, and he didn't lie to Qi Ning about it.

After leaving the mansion, Meng Shaoqing went straight to a tavern.

This tavern was a frequent gathering place for literati and scholars; Meng Shaoqing and others had been there once before.

He went up to the second floor, sat down by the window, ordered a pot of wine from the waiter, and began to drink by himself. During this time, he would look around from time to time, as if he was looking for someone, or as if he was waiting for someone.

He didn't know how much time had passed when someone suddenly called his name.
