But even at this point, the female supporting character hadn't turned bad. She was still mostly afraid and apprehensive.
After Qin Sisi returned home, the Qin family's attention clearly shifted entirely to her. Her parents doted on her, her grandparents spoiled her, and even Qin Wushuang, who was usually short-tempered, was gentle and patient with her.
She doesn't have to do anything to gain the attention and affection of everyone in the Qin family.
The female supporting character, though left in the Qin family, gradually became invisible. Her family, who once loved and doted on her, no longer cared about her, and her brother, who had disliked her since childhood, became increasingly cruel to her, as if she were some heinous criminal.
Under this invisible pressure, the female supporting character's psychology slowly began to twist. She developed many evil thoughts.
At that moment, Qin Sisi made her move.
Despite being the female protagonist in the novel, Qin Sisi has a very weak moral compass. She is willing to use any means necessary to achieve her goals.
Framing, slander, sowing discord, stealing the female supporting character's fiancé... all these were things she first targeted at the female supporting character. The female supporting character was a fake heiress, with no blood relation to the Qin family. When conflict arose, the Qin family naturally chose to believe Qin Sisi.
Thus, the female supporting character was portrayed as a wicked woman with malicious intentions.
Seeing that the Qin family was increasingly disgusted with her, the female supporting character worried that she would be kicked out of the Qin family and taken back to that poor little mountain village to become a bargaining chip for her biological parents to exchange for a dowry.
To protect her status and the emperor's favor, she had no choice but to retaliate, using the methods Qin Sisi had demonstrated.
However, he ended up falling into Qin Sisi's trap.
One wrong step by the female supporting character leads to total defeat. From her initial helpless acts of evil to her later frantic and reckless self-destruction... Qin Song, while reading the novel, once suspected that the female supporting character had developed mental problems.
All of this was Qin Sisi's doing.
This is why Qin Sisi was constantly criticized by readers during the novel's serialization and was even voted the most disgusting female protagonist of the 21st century.
"I heard that President Pei went bankrupt. You must be having a tough time right now."
Qin Sisi's sweet voice pulled Qin Song back to reality from his wandering thoughts. Qin Song looked up at her, his eyes blatantly filled with disdain.
"Whether I live a good or bad life is up to me, and it has nothing to do with Miss Qin."
Qin Song didn't want to get entangled with her, so he left after saying those words.
"Eh--"
Qin Sisi's two lackeys simultaneously reached out to stop her, seemingly not intending to let her off easily.
"You're a fake that everyone hates, what are you pretending for?" One of them grabbed Qin Song's arm and roughly pulled her a few steps into the store.
"Don't touch me!" Qin Song forcefully shook off her hand and took two steps back to increase the distance between himself and them.
"Pfft!" Another henchman suddenly laughed, his laughter arrogant and mocking. "Mengmeng, speak properly! Why did you touch her? She's pregnant! Be careful you don't hurt her and she tries to blackmail you!"
"Oh, right!" Li Rumeng clapped her hands, as if she had just remembered Qin Song.
"I almost forgot, Qin Song is heavily pregnant now! The child in her belly is the child of the famous 'bankrupt CEO Pei' in Yuncheng! Who in Yuncheng doesn't know that CEO Pei is a penniless pauper? They're so poor, don't think you can bully me and try to extort money from me."
"Humph……"
Qin Sisi was amused by Li Rumeng's words. She gracefully walked into the store in her high heels, first surveying the interior decor, then looking at Qin Song's attire, before feigning curiosity and asking, "Qin Song, what are you doing here? Buying something?"
"..." Qin Song remained silent, ignoring her.
She thought for a moment, then asked, "If I remember correctly, the jewelry in this store starts at five figures. Can you afford it in your current state?"
Qin Song curled his lips into a disdainful sneer: "Qin Sisi, what era are we living in? You're still playing these 'pure and innocent' tricks? How childish..."
"Tsk, what are you saying?"
Qin Sisi wasn't angry, but Li Rumeng, her follower, was the first to speak up for her master.
Qin Sisi pretended to comfort Li Rumeng: "Mengmeng, don't be angry. Let's not stoop to her level. Just like in novels, noble heroines usually can't be bothered to argue with vicious female supporting characters."
"She's so down on her luck now, let's just let her have her way."
“Exactly,” another follower chimed in. “She’s poor and ugly now. It’s more shameful for you to argue with her than to sit on the street and argue with a madman.”
"You know it's shameful, yet you still block my way?" Qin Song really didn't have time to play these sarcastic games with them. She pushed Li Rumeng aside and started to walk away, but the next second, she was blocked by Qin Wushuang who suddenly appeared.
Qin Wushuang stared at Qin Song with cold, emotionless phoenix eyes. She parted her thin lips slightly and uttered a few words in a low voice: "Qin Song, what kind of death are you courting now?"
"..."
Qin Song was speechless. Why were all these dead people gathering together?
"elder brother!"
The moment Qin Wushuang appeared, Qin Sisi's voice instantly became even sweeter. She ran up to Qin Wushuang in her high heels, affectionately took his arm, and spoke with a hint of coquetry.
"Why is my brother here? Didn't you say you had a meeting today?"
Qin Wushuang's gaze remained fixed on Qin Song, never leaving him for a moment.
"The meeting was postponed, and I suddenly had some free time, so I came here to wander around."
"Oh, I see..." Qin Sisi nodded, then said, "It's almost lunchtime, brother, shall we eat together? I want to eat at that new sushi place on the third floor!"
Qin Wushuang: "Okay. Did Qin Song bully you?"
Qin Song: "..."
She just came here to sell a necklace, what did she do to deserve this?
Qin Sisi looked at her with a smug look in her eyes: "No, I just ran into her too, I don't know what she's doing here."
"Heh..." Li Rumeng chuckled lightly, "Want to know this? It's not hard, is it? Waiter, what brings this lady to your store? Is she buying something?"
The waitress was in a bad mood because Qin Song had just stolen a customer's order. When Li Rumeng asked her about it, she told her everything without caring whether it was in accordance with professional regulations.
"This young woman isn't here to buy anything, she's here to sell something. She's selling a secondhand necklace; the gentleman who bought it just left."
"Selling a necklace?" Li Rumeng was a little surprised. "Qin Song, why are you selling a necklace? Are you short of money?"
Qin Song readily admitted, "Yes, I'm short of money."
Upon hearing this, Qin Wushuang immediately frowned.
"Oh my god," Li Rumeng covered her mouth, feigning surprise, "Qin Song, are you in such dire straits right now? You have to sell your necklace to make money? President Pei went bankrupt and didn't leave you a single penny?"
Qin Song's patience was worn thin by their incessant chatter. She sighed in annoyance, then looked up at Qin Wushuang and his sister with impatience: "This is my family matter, and I have no obligation to answer your questions. Please make way for me; I need to go home! My husband is waiting for me to come home for dinner."
After saying that, she directly pushed Qin Wushuang aside, who was blocking her way, and tried to walk away. But Qin Wushuang grabbed her wrist and forcefully pulled her back.
"Even at a time like this, you're still protecting Pei Xingzhi?"
