(Quick Transmigration) Small Cannon Fodder Has Great Power

A few days later, Yao Yulang packed his things and took Gu Yunyun away from the Yao residence to move to his newly purchased house. Madam Yao reluctantly pulled Yao Yulang aside and told him to bring his wife back to visit them often.

Yao Yulang comforted his mother with a few words, and Gu Yunyun also acted coquettishly to make Madam Yao less sad, successfully earning a look of approval from Young Master Yao.

After getting on the bus, Yao Yulang glanced at her and said, "My mother really likes you."

“I’ve always been liked by the elders since I was little,” Gu Yunyun boasted. “Whenever we visited during holidays, after a trip to see my uncles, aunts, grandpas and grandmas, I always came back with my pockets full of snacks.”

When Yao Yulang saw her radiant and proud little face, he couldn't help but soften his gaze and smile slightly. "So you're sweet-talking because you eat a lot of snacks."

Gu Yunyun looked up at him with some surprise. When she saw the doting look in his eyes, her peach blossom eyes became even more captivating without her realizing it. She was stunned for a moment, then naturally smiled at him generously before turning her head back to look at the street scene outside the window.

The male lead is indeed the male lead, he's fucking handsome...

Her outward calm couldn't fool the system, which exclaimed, "Oh my, young lady, are you feeling the stirrings of first love?"

"Bullshit."

"But I detected that your heart rate suddenly increased just now, and it's still a tiny bit fast now (╯▽╰)."

Gu Yunyun said to the system in a serious tone, "Do you think if he realizes that he accidentally flirted with me just now, and I acted a little awkward, will he retreat back into his snail shell?"

"...How can the male lead be so reserved when he's trying to be romantic with Fang Hui?"

“How can my situation be the same as Fang Hui’s? In the original story, he and Fang Hui fell in love freely, while I was forced into this relationship by his parents against his will, and once I got involved, I couldn’t get rid of it. Of course, he would subconsciously keep his distance.”

"It's that serious..."

"Yeah, so my heart was racing just now because I was nervous and afraid of ruining everything." Gu Yunyun said to the system with a disdainful tone, "I told you a long time ago that your detection system is useless. It can only detect heart rate, but it can't interpret emotions. Isn't that easy to cause misunderstandings?"

"Really?" The system hesitated slightly. "Then should I suggest to the central control center that we add an emotion detection function?"

Gu Yunyun: "...No need to trouble yourself, I really think this is fine." Please give me some privacy, okay? =_=

"What are your plans for the future?" Yao Yulang suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Gu Yunyun came back to her senses.

What are your thoughts on the future?

The system was stunned: "He... he just moved out of the mansion and hasn't even arrived at his new home yet, and he's already in a hurry to get rid of you?"

Gu Yunyun didn't have time to pay attention to the startled system. She looked at Yao Yulang with a humble expression and asked, "I heard that women can hold up half the sky now. What kind of job do you think I can do in the future?"

Gu Yunyun's answer once again surprised Yao Yulang. He didn't expect that a pampered princess would have such progressive ideas as a modern woman. "You want to go out and work?"

“Yes,” Gu Yunyun nodded, “Although you promised to provide for my livelihood, I can’t just stay at home and wait to die from now on. I need to do something. Besides, women becoming more and more independent is an inevitable part of historical progress, and I can’t fall behind, can I?”

Almost everyone who has received a modern education has a sense of responsibility to enlighten those poisoned by decadent, feudal, and backward culture. This is especially true of Yao Yulang, who is full of patriotic fervor in the story.

Sure enough, he showed a gratified expression when he heard Gu Yunyun's ambitious words. Just as a responsible teacher cannot refuse a student's eager eyes for knowledge, Yao Yulang could not ignore Gu Yunyun.

“If you want to go out and work, you need to have a skill.” Yao Yulang thought for a moment and then added, “Learn some knowledge and skills needed in contemporary society.”

Gu Yunyun looked at him as if she understood but not quite, but her face showed complete trust in him.

Encouraged by Gu Yunyun's expression, Yao Yulang opened up even more and continued earnestly, "I suggest you go to a modern school. Not only will you learn new cultural knowledge, but you can also make more friends and learn more about society and the world. Your horizons will broaden, and you will find something you are truly interested in. Then, you can choose the job you want to do."

Gu Yunyun listened with a longing expression, then subtly feigned a hint of trepidation, "I've never been to a modern school before..."

“If you’re willing to go, I can help you enroll. You don’t need to worry about anything else,” Yao Yulang reassured him. “The teachers and classmates at the school are all very easy to get along with. You’ll like it there.”

Gu Yunyun relaxed and said gratefully, "Then I'll trouble you."

"You are welcome."

···

And so, Gu Yunyun became a new student at the modern school.

She put on the school uniform of the new school—a simple and elegant sky-blue blouse with Chinese knot buttons, a black midi skirt that went past her knees, and a pair of round-toed leather shoes. She stood tall and graceful, pure and elegant.

Gu Yunyun combed her long, black hair into pigtails, and you could no longer see even a trace of the old-fashioned princess. She was clearly a vibrant, pure, and lovely modern female student, like a flower bud covered in morning dew.

When she first appeared before Yao Yulang dressed as a female student, she truly stunned and amazed him for quite a while.

"Does this outfit look a little strange?" Gu Yunyun tugged at one of her ponytails, revealing a girlish shyness.

Yao Yulang restrained the urge to clutch his heart, cleared his throat, and said, "Uh, it's... well..." He suppressed the word "love" that was about to slip out, "Uh, I mean, it's not strange, it's fine."

"Hey, that's good."

"After lunch, have the driver take you to school. After school, wait for the driver to pick you up. From now on, the driver will pick you up and drop you off every day." Yao Yulang said this with feigned composure, then hurriedly turned and left as if fleeing.

"Okay, thank you!" Gu Yunyun said loudly to his retreating figure.

Now that she and Yao Yulang are getting along well, and she has just entered the modern school and hasn't yet integrated into the new environment, he won't be in such a hurry to send her away, so the alarm can be temporarily lifted.

However, we can't slack off on winning over the male lead. If we have no influence over him at all, how can we stop him from seeing Fang Hui? How can we help him protect his family's treasured artifact, the jade seal?

After having breakfast, Gu Yunyun took a car to Yulin Academy, which was also the male protagonist's alma mater.

The car stopped on the roadside outside the school gate.

Many young and energetic students came and went at the school gate. The male students wore black Zhongshan suits, and the female students wore the same blue shirt and black skirt as Gu Yunyun. They walked into the school in groups of three or five, chattering away.

Occasionally, students would arrive by bicycle, deliberately ringing their bicycle bells as they passed through the crowd, the clear, ringing sound of the bells accompanied by the cheerful laughter of the children.

The system sighed, "Youth is truly wonderful~"

Gu Yunyun: "I'm a young girl too~"

System: "Don't you know how many years you've been a 'teenager'? You fake teenager."

Gu Yunyun: You're just jealous of my youth and beauty ╮(╯▽╰)╭.

She got off the bus carrying a leather handbag filled with books, and as always, she also had a small, exquisite cloth bag, about the size of a man's palm, slung across her body as a cute accessory.

In this era, owning a car meant one was either rich or powerful, so Gu Yunyun received many stares when she got out of the car. She casually said goodbye to the driver and walked around with a sense of composure, taking in the modern universities of this era.

As Gu Yunyun looked around, the students next to her were also secretly observing her.

Not to mention that Gu Yunyun was a rich girl who got out of a car, Gu Yunyun herself was attractive enough: milky white skin, cute and delicate pretty face, thick and healthy black hair like seaweed, and rosy lips that seemed to be smiling all the time. She was as beautiful as a porcelain doll.

Some students who had read Grimm's Fairy Tales couldn't help but compare her to the description of Snow White in the story—"her skin was as white as snow, her lips as red as blood, and her hair as black as ebony window frames." This strong yet harmonious color contrast was quite fitting to describe this extremely beautiful junior schoolmate.

Gu Yunyun first went to the teaching office to report, and then the teacher led her to her class.

When the students in the class saw Gu Yunyun walk in with the teacher, they immediately erupted in excitement. It turned out that the really pretty girl they had seen that morning had come to their class! They could brag about this to the students in other classes for a year!

Of course, not every student is happy about the arrival of a beautiful new classmate.

A bright-looking girl with fashionable permed hair rolled her eyes and curled her lips in disdain as she watched the male classmates in the class get particularly excited; a girl with bangs and short hair by the window, who looked cheerful and clean, lowered her eyes, the faint smile on her lips not reflected in her eyes.

Amidst the commotion, the system was still beeping and sounding alarms in Gu Yunyun's mind, "Look, that's Fang Hui, host, look, she's the short-haired one sitting by the window!"

The alarm startled Gu Yunyun, her mind buzzing. Unable to contain herself any longer, she slapped the system's round body, sending it spinning several times. "The alarm's deafening! Quiet! Throw that thing away!"

The system stubbornly insisted, "No!"

But at least the alarm stopped, and Gu Yunyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Gu Yunyun's expression, the teacher thought that the students' enthusiasm had frightened her, so she quickly asked the students to be quiet.

"This is our new classmate, Gu Yunyun." The teacher turned to Gu Yunyun and said kindly, "Gu, please introduce yourself."

Gu Yunyun had been instructed by Yao Yulang to use an alias at school, since the surname Aisin Gioro was too conspicuous, so she simply took the opportunity to use her real name.

Gu Yunyun introduced herself politely, "Hello everyone, my name is Gu Yunyun, you can just call me Yunyun." It's still more comfortable to use my own name.
