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

Chapter 458 The Sister-in-Law in Uncle-Sister Literature 2

Qi Ning slowly opened her eyes and saw the bed curtains above her head, with a young man sitting beside the bed.

As soon as he saw Qi Ning wake up, he immediately took her hand and said, "Ning'er, you're finally awake."

Looking at the person in front of her and feeling a slight pain in her abdomen, Qi Ning knew that in this mission world she had directly transmigrated to the time after the original owner had miscarried.

This is a disastrous start, isn't it?

The man before me was undoubtedly Duan Yihuai.

Duan Yihuai has a handsome face, dignified and refined, but unfortunately, he is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Or perhaps, he only showed genuine affection to Lin Suwan, and was insincere to everyone else.

Seeing the fake concern on Duan Yihuai's face, Qi Ning sneered and pulled her hand away from his grasp.

Duan Yihuai's expression stiffened, and after a pause, he withdrew his hand.

Qi Ning used to look at him with eyes full of admiration, but now all that's left is anger and indifference, as if she's become a completely different person.

After what happened, Duan Yihuai still felt a little guilty towards Qi Ning, after all, that child was also his own flesh and blood.

However, that child was never what he wanted, so it's better that it's gone; perhaps it was fate.

Now all he has to do is calm Qi Ning down so she doesn't make a big fuss.

“Ning’er, I know you’re sad because you lost your child. I’m sorry. You can hit me or scold me if you want.”

No sooner had Duan Yihuai finished speaking than Qi Ning sat up and slapped him hard across the face.

With a loud slap, Duan Yihuai's face was turned to the side.

He froze, staring at Qi Ning in shock.

He was slapped by Qi Ning in Lin Suwan's courtyard yesterday. The marks had finally disappeared after a night, but Qi Ning slapped him again today.

"What? Didn't you say I could hit you or yell at you as I pleased?"

Qi Ning lay back down and asked provocatively.

Duan Yihuai pressed his tongue against his slapped cheek: "I just didn't expect that you, who are so weak now, would still have so much strength."

The original owner's body is indeed weak now, but that doesn't stop Qi Ning from using skillful force to slap him.

"You should be glad that I am weak now, otherwise I would love to skin you alive and tear your tendons out to avenge my child."

Hearing Qi Ning's words through gritted teeth, Duan Yihuai understood that she was currently in a fit of anger and capable of doing anything.

Worried that Qi Ning might do something to Lin Suwan, he quickly said, "You can take your anger out on me, but my sister-in-law is really innocent. What happened yesterday was just a misunderstanding. After your accident, my sister-in-law was very worried about you. She stayed here all night to watch over you and only left recently."

"Misunderstanding? Are you sure it's a misunderstanding? Duan Yihuai, do you really think I'm a fool?"

Qi Ning's pale face was full of irony.

"What do you mean by telling me that Lin Suwan stayed here with me all night? Do you expect me to thank her?"

Duan Yihuai frowned: "That's not what I meant."

He knew Qi Ning was naive, but it was indeed unlikely that he could lie to her that it was a misunderstanding, given that she had seen it with her own eyes.

Duan Yihuai simply admitted, "Yes, even if it's true, it's my fault and has nothing to do with my sister-in-law. Your miscarriage was caused by my accidental push and has nothing to do with her."

Qi Ning found it laughable: "You're really good to her, and now you're still saying you're protecting her."

Hearing Qi Ning's sarcastic words, Duan Yihuai understood that saying these things at this time would not be of much use, and mentioning Lin Suwan would only make her resent him more.

He sighed softly and changed the subject: "This morning, my mother-in-law came to see you at the mansion. You were unconscious at the time. She stayed for a while and then left some tonics before leaving."

The mother-in-law that Duan Yihuai mentioned was Lu Yunxiu, Qi Ning's stepmother.

Qi Ning looked coldly at Duan Yihuai: "Did you tell my mother why I miscarried?"

"Of course, as I said, it's all my fault for not taking good care of you."

Listen to this, this is what you call the art of language.

He didn't explain to Lu Yunxiu how Qi Ning miscarried, only admitting his mistakes. Lu Yunxiu naturally assumed it was an accident and that he took all the blame out of self-reproach.

Given his attitude of admitting his mistake, Lu Yunxiu had to comfort him instead.

Of course, Lu Yunxiu, Qi Ning's stepmother, didn't really care about Qi Ning. She just came to ask about the situation and then went back to give Qi Ning's father, Qi Yuanshan, an explanation.

After the original owner's mother passed away when he was young, Qi Yuanshan remarried Lu Yunxiu not long after.

Lu Yunxiu was a shrewd woman. She did not mistreat Qi Ning, the daughter left behind by the ex-wife. After all, she was just a daughter, posing no threat to Qi Ning and not going to compete with her son for the family property.

On the contrary, Lu Yunxiu indulged Qi Ning in every way, deliberately spoiling him. To others, this appeared to be pampering, which not only earned her a good reputation but also made Qi Yuanshan happy.

Such indulgence and pampering fostered a spoiled and naive personality in the original owner.

When the Duan family went to the Qi family to propose marriage, the original owner also insisted on marrying Duan Yihuai. Originally, Qi Yuanshan was somewhat concerned that the Duan family's status meant they were not favored by the emperor.

However, Lu Yunxiu said that Duan Yihuai was a newly appointed Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), and Qi Ning liked him, thus persuading Qi Yuanshan and facilitating the marriage.

As for Lu Yunxiu, she didn't care whether Qi Ning married well or was happy after marriage, as long as she got married.

"Duan Yihuai, you are really capable. You not only fooled me, but also my family. Only today have I seen your true colors."

Duan Yihuai was always like this; he had just disguised himself too well before, only revealing his true colors in front of Lin Suwan.

Of course, the reason he chose to marry Qi Ning was precisely because he saw that she was easy to fool and that her family didn't care much about her, making her easier for him to control.

Just as Duan Yihuai was about to say something, he heard Qi Ning continue, "Duan Yihuai, I want a divorce."

"What did you say?" Duan Yihuai looked up at Qi Ning.

"I said, I want a divorce." Qi Ning repeated.

Duan Yihuai smiled slowly.

"Ning'er, don't talk nonsense. I won't divorce you."

Of course he wouldn't divorce Qi Ning. If they did, wouldn't she be out of his control? If Qi Ning spread rumors about him and Lin Suwan, their reputations and his career would be affected.

If Qi Ning had brought up divorce earlier, he would definitely have agreed. But now that she has discovered his affair with Lin Suwan, things are different.

He didn't know what would happen in the future, but at least for now, before he could figure out how to handle the situation, he needed to keep Qi Ning under his watchful eye and shut her up. He couldn't possibly divorce her at this time.

Duan Yihuai stood up, leaving only the words: "Don't think too much, just focus on taking care of yourself."

After saying that, he turned and walked out.
