Quick Transmigration: The Villain is Destiny, the Protagonist Takes a Backseat

When they first met, Meng Yue's parents had been dead for half a year. The young boy was thin and bony. Although he was fourteen or fifteen years old, he looked like he was eleven or twelve. He was weak, pitiful, and helpless. His eyes, which should have been bright and black, were also dull and lifeless.

He and his wife felt sorry for her, thinking that since she was betrothed to their child, it would be good to bring her home to keep their child company.

Fearing that Meng Yue would feel uncomfortable living under someone else's roof, they even gave him more love than Wen Xiangzhu.

To my surprise, he became arrogant not long after.

His initial humility and caution turned into arrogance and domineering behavior. He had promised to take care of their little candle, but he and his wife saw him push the little candle away more than once. Many times, they saw that the child they had raised with such love and care was covered in scars.

Despite their questioning, she gritted her teeth and covered for him, even after being exposed, her eyes were filled with fear.

What pained them was that he wasn't afraid of being scolded himself, but rather that they would punish Meng Yue because of it.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Wen were ruthless businessmen, they softened and had no choice but to give in to their child's desperate pleas.

You can't hit them, and you can't scold them.

Over time, she grew increasingly displeased with Meng Yue, and would never have considered marrying her child to him.

If Wen Xiangzhu hadn't insisted on his own way, they would have driven Meng Yue away long ago.

An ungrateful wretch.

The two elders had different expressions, but both carried a hint of satisfaction.

Ji Qiuzhe saw this and thought that Meng Yue could treat Wen Xiangzhu so arrogantly because of Wen's parents' favoritism. It seems that he was wrong.

No parent who loves their child can tolerate someone trampling on their child's sincerity, especially since Wen Xiangzhu is the only son of the Wen family.

"Xiao Zhu, how could you say that?"

Meng Yue looked very hurt.

He was extremely angry, but he dared not show it in front of Mr. and Mrs. Wen.

Over the years, he has always played the role of a dutiful and good older brother in front of his two elders, just to put their minds at ease.

Originally, although he didn't like Wen Xiangzhu, he was prepared to accept his fate of marrying him. He planned to spend his life with Wen Xiangzhu, but unexpectedly, he met Yan Tingyu, whom he fell in love with at first sight, when he went to university.

Yan Tingyu was constantly attracting him.

At the height of his love, Meng Yue even felt that as long as Yan Tingyu could be with him, he would even give up his life of wealth and suffer hardships with her.

Unfortunately, his sincere efforts were repeatedly thwarted by Wen Xiangzhu.

"Sorry, I spoke harshly," Wen Xiangzhu said in a neutral tone. "If you can't accept it, then go wash up and go to sleep."

Meng Yue: ...

How come I never noticed before that Wen Xiangzhu is so eloquent?

"Xiao Zhu," Meng Yue said knowingly, "Are you still upset that I drank Ting Yu's water instead of yours?"

Wen Xiangzhu: ...

How many days ago was that? He's long forgotten.

"No, that's not true. Aren't you injured? Go upstairs and rest."

really.

Meng Yue was secretly pleased with himself. He thought to himself that Wen Xiangzhu still couldn't let go of him. Even though she was so jealous, she still couldn't help but care about him.

"Alright, I'll listen to you. I'll go upstairs and rest now." Meng Yue's gaze became even more affectionate.

Wen Xiangzhu: ...

Feeling reassured, Meng Yue was in a good mood. "Uncle and Aunt, I'll go upstairs now."

"Okay, go ahead, Xiao Yue. Don't move around too much unless you have to, and get some rest." Seeing that he was finally leaving, Wen's father quickly put on a loving expression.

"Yes, thank you for your concern, Uncle." Meng Yue was very pleased with himself.

Sure enough, as long as Wen Xiangzhu's heart is still with him, the Wen family will have to fawn over him.

Before leaving, Meng Yue gave Ji Qiuzhe a provocative look.

No matter how much Wen's parents liked him, he was still just an outsider. Meng Yue believed that the Wen family could still distinguish between close and distant relationships.

Ji Qiuzhe was speechless: ...

[He's so stupid and narcissistic.] 003 Commentary.

It asked 838: "What makes this kind of person qualified to be the protagonist?"

[The leader doesn't know either. All the leader knows is that the mission he received tells him he's the protagonist.] Ever since becoming a subordinate, 838 has seemed rather silly.

Fortunately, 003 is a good older brother; it doesn't look down on its less intelligent younger brother at all.

After Meng Yue left.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Ji Qiuzhe said to Wen Xiangzhu, "Zhu Zi, I brought you some gifts this time. Would you like to open them and take a look?"

"Let's take a look." Wen Xiangzhu was clearly surprised by this part and was overjoyed.

The atmosphere then became lively again.

Ji Qiuzhe knew his lover's preferences too well; everything he picked was exquisite, beautiful, and understatedly luxurious.

The quantity is limited, but the price is extremely high. Many of them are so rare that they are considered family heirlooms. Even Mr. and Mrs. Wen couldn't help but gasp in amazement when they saw them.

That's incredibly wealthy and powerful!

At first glance, he brought over a few ordinary gift bags, and I thought they were just ordinary greeting gifts, but I didn't expect them to contain a secret.

With each item Wen Xiangzhu unpacked, his eyes lit up a little more; clearly, he liked every single one.

Mother Wen couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Zhe, isn't this... a bit too expensive?"

“I don’t think so, Auntie. In my eyes, bamboo should be the best. I’m very happy to be able to buy him a gift.”

A few words made the two elders very happy.

Parents often don't care about themselves; they just want someone to treat their children well.

"Hahaha, good!"

After years of suppressed frustration, Mr. Wen finally burst into laughter, looking at the batter as if he were looking at his prospective son-in-law.

"As expected of Old Ji's son, you have such a grand presence! Your uncle has always thought you were capable since you were little, and it seems he was right about you."

I just don't know if the two kids have feelings for each other.

As long as they truly love each other, even if it means infamy, Wen's father will still support them.

"Uncle is truly remarkable; he raised Zhuzi to be an excellent child."

When Ji Qiuzhe said this, he wasn't joking at all. He wasn't making things up; Wen Xiangzhu's excellence was an objective fact.

Despite being a wealthy young master, he was humble and polite, with excellent grades and outstanding skills. However, due to the uncontrollable forces of the system, he always had to do things against his will and ruin the goodwill of others.

The villainous supporting character overshadowed him completely.

But gold always shines.

In the future, Wen Xiangzhu will only become more and more dazzling, forging a truly brilliant path that rightfully belongs to him.

[Affection +10%, current affection level 60%.]

"Thanks for praising me, Brother Xiaozhe!"

Wen Xiangzhu smiled and accepted the praise without hesitation.

He has a clear understanding of himself and knows that he is capable enough to be the best partner.

Throughout the entire story, aside from being forced to please Meng Yue due to the plot, he remained clear-headed and knew what kind of partner and what kind of life he wanted.
