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

Lu Yiheng subconsciously stopped and listened carefully, only to find that the sound was coming from a courtyard by the roadside.

“Sister Chunhua, my Mingjie is about the same age as that girl from the Qi family. I heard she came back from the city a couple of days ago. You and the Qi family are from the same village, so you must be able to talk to them. Could you go and say a word for me?”

Chunhua clicked her tongue twice: "Third sister, you know that the Qi family is rich and that girl Aning is very popular. Not to mention your village, there are many people in our own village and hamlet who want to marry into the Qi family."

“Before, when that girl Aning was engaged to that boy from the Gu family, many people inquired about it. Now that their marriage has fallen through, even more people want to become related to the Qi Datian family through marriage; there are more than ten of them.”

"Is it true or not? Can't I even tell you?" The third sister was a little unwilling.

Sister Chunhua exclaimed, "Do you think I'd lie to you? For example, the second son of the village chief, the one who runs a pig farm in the east of the village, and the one who runs a fishpond in Lihua Village—they've both gone to the Qi family through matchmakers..."

Lu Yiheng's mind was buzzing, and he couldn't hear what the people in the backyard were saying.

Since returning to the village, Lu Yiheng has been busy getting those certificates done after seeing his uncle's family, and hasn't seen Qi Ning again.

Upon hearing those words, Lu Yiheng finally realized what was happening.

Yes, Qi Ning's engagement with Gu Lixuan fell through, so her family will definitely arrange another marriage for her.

For some reason, Lu Yiheng suddenly turned and headed towards Lihua Village.

He walked faster and faster along the way, heading straight towards the Qi family's residence.

Just as they were about to reach the Qi family's residence, Lu Yiheng suddenly stopped.

Qi Ning was coming out of her yard, but she wasn't alone; she was seeing off the village chief's second son.

The two stood at the door, talking about something, while Lu Yiheng stood under a tree not far away watching.

"Host, Lu Yiheng is behind you," the system quietly reminded you.

"I understand," Qi Ning replied in his heart, but did not turn around to look. He continued to deal with the village chief's second son with some impatience.

It's unclear how much time passed before the village chief's second son reluctantly turned and left.

Seeing that the person had left, Qi Ning made a move to return to the courtyard.

“Qi Ning”.

Lu Yiheng called out to her.

Hearing the sound, Qi Ning turned around and saw Lu Yiheng not far away.

"Lu Yiheng, what are you doing here?"

Qi Ning walked towards him.

Lu Yiheng looked at her and lied, "I was just passing by and happened to see you."

"Oh, I see," Qi Ning replied, drawing out her words. "Did you call me for something?"

"Actually, it's nothing. I just saw you talking to someone. Who was that? They looked familiar."

"Didn't you see? That's the village chief's second son."

"Really? Did he come to your house for something?" Lu Yiheng knew he had no right to ask these questions, but he couldn't help but ask anyway.

Fortunately, Qi Ning didn't mind or think he was being nosy.

"It's nothing. He came to my house to deliver something, and my mom insisted that I see him out. We just exchanged a few words."

"Oh, that's right."

Lu Yiheng lowered his eyes.

He thought to himself, it seems that the village chief's second son really likes Qi Ning, Qi Ning's mother is quite satisfied with him, and Qi Ning doesn't seem to be rejecting him.

Qi Ning looked at Lu Yiheng, her hands behind her back: "Is there anything else? If not, I'm going back."

"and many more!"

Lu Yiheng reached out to stop Qi Ning.

"What's wrong?" Qi Ning looked up at him.

Lu Yiheng looked into Qi Ning's eyes: "Actually, I lied to you just now."

"what?"

“I’m not just passing by; I came here specifically to find you.”

"You came here specifically to see me?"

"Yes."

Lu Yiheng took a deep breath, then suddenly became serious and said solemnly, "Comrade Qi Ning, I like you. Can you give me a chance to pursue you?"

"what?"

Lu Yiheng's sudden and direct approach left Qi Ning momentarily stunned.

"Wow!" the system exclaimed in Qi Ning's mind. "People in this era are really pure-minded. They confess their feelings as soon as they sense a little bit of liking someone."

"Host, say yes, say yes!"

Qi Ning rolled her eyes inwardly and retorted to the system, "Can't you be a little more reserved?"

"Okay, be reserved!"

Since Lu Yiheng had already confessed his feelings, the matter was settled, so the system calmed down and stopped disturbing its host.

Qi Ning looked at Lu Yiheng's nervous eyes and twisted her braid: "Lu Yiheng, you're not joking, are you?"

"Of course not, I'm serious," Lu Yiheng quickly replied.

"You said you like me because I helped you in the city, and you were touched?" Qi Ning asked again.

“Not entirely,” Lu Yiheng replied honestly. “I was indeed moved, but… I also do like you.”

His ears turned bright red as he said those words.

Qi Ning looked at his somewhat simple-minded appearance, suppressed a laugh, and shook her head.

"sorry."

Upon hearing these three words, Lu Yiheng's eyes immediately dimmed.

"why?"

He thought for a moment: "Is it because I was engaged to He Sisi before?"

Qi Ning did not deny it: "Yes."

“But my marriage to her is off the table a long time ago, she’s already married to Gu Lixuan,” Lu Yiheng said anxiously.

"Then you must have liked her, otherwise why would you have gotten engaged to her before?"

"I didn't," Lu Yiheng said in a low voice.

He was filled with regret. He shouldn't have agreed so hastily when He Sisi proposed to marry him.

"Really do not have?"

"Really, I've only ever loved one person, and that's you." Lu Yiheng added, afraid that Qi Ning wouldn't believe him, "If you don't believe me, I can swear."

Qi Ning chuckled and pressed down his hand as he was about to swear: "Alright, alright, I believe you. There's no need for you to swear."

"So you've agreed to my request?" Lu Yiheng asked cautiously.

Qi Ning shook her head again.

"You're being too sudden. I need to think about it."

Lu Yiheng's eyes lit up again. Although Qi Ning didn't agree, she didn't seem to refuse either.

"Besides, Lu Yiheng, even if I agree, my parents might not, do you understand?"

Qi Ning smiled and said, "Alright, I'll head back now. You should head back early too."

After saying that, she walked past Lu Yiheng and returned to her own courtyard.

Lu Yiheng's gaze followed Qi Ning's figure as she disappeared at the entrance of the Qi family's house.

He stood there lost in thought.

Yes, Gu Lixuan is not good enough for Qi Ning. He doesn't seem to be good enough for Qi Ning either. In addition, he was once engaged to He Sisi, so Qi Ning's parents will definitely not agree.

Unless he can make Qi Ning's parents satisfied with him.
