Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

He Yujin didn't understand what he meant. How strange it was that someone who clearly had no feelings kept pursuing them.

Cheng Nianzhi has received the love of his family, the affection of his friends, and the adoration of his fans little by little. Now, all he lacks is the love of a romantic partner.

"Do you think this is a card collecting game?" He Yujin thought to herself.

"I don't care about you anymore, but I don't have any other demands on you. Don't hurt that girl because of your own selfishness. That girl doesn't owe you anything!" He Yujin changed her previous nonchalant attitude and said seriously while smoothing her hair.

"No, I want to achieve something, so I will naturally strive in a positive direction. To create obstacles for myself is the act of a fool." Cheng Nianzhi tapped his temple with his fingertip.

"For example?" He Yujin felt that Cheng Nianzhi's understanding seemed to have deviated somewhere.

"Arguments, disagreements, disagreements, saying one thing but meaning another..." Cheng Nianzhi listed.

Even family, friends, and lovers who love each other will have disagreements and arguments, but that doesn't affect their intimacy... What I mean is...

He Yujin wanted to say that it's even more heartbreaking when you deliberately disguise yourself to achieve your goals, and that's what happens when you're discovered.

Suddenly, an idea popped into He Yujin's mind. She realized that she and Cheng Nianzhi had never had a conflict since they met!

When he turned his neck, he met Cheng Nianzhi's relaxed and smiling gaze.

That face, as if bathed in a spring breeze, a face that no one would feel any ill will towards, made He Yujin shudder for the first time in a long time: No way...

"You found out?" Cheng Nianzhi's voice sounded like a mischievous, amused laugh to He Yujin.

"Really? You've been faking it on me too?" He Yujin had always felt that Cheng Nianzhi was quite genuine and honest in front of her, to the point that she knew very well that he was indeed abnormal.

"Not really."

Just as He Yujin was about to breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that Cheng Nianzhi wasn't going too far, she heard the second half of his sentence.

"Because there's no real need for it. To some extent, you're dependent on me, so you're easy to control," Cheng Nianzhi commented.

He Yujin: ...

"How could I be?"

"Otherwise, you can go home now and have a good fight with your brother over the inheritance." Cheng Nianzhi hit him where it hurt.

You are cruel.

He Yujin can only reassure various forces by completely refraining from involvement in the family business.

His brother is a good brother. As long as he doesn't touch the family business, they can be brothers for life. But if it comes to the heir, they will definitely turn against each other.

He Yujin had absolutely no interest in the identity of the heir; with Cheng Nianzhi, he was the place his brother trusted most.

He Yujin had no desire to continue talking to Cheng Nianzhi; Cheng Nianzhi's symptoms had reached a point where they were completely incurable.

Psychologists were amazed; people like him are highly susceptible to developing antisocial personality disorder.

But Cheng Nianzhi, he controlled himself very well.

So well that even psychologists couldn't tell whether his symptoms were genuinely stable or just an act of restraint and composure.

"Alright, talking to you is exhausting. I'm going back to reading the script." Cheng Nianzhi looked tired, as if He Yujin was a fool who was wasting his energy.

"Fine, I still have to 'depend' on him," He Yujin gritted her teeth and went to smoke a cigarette.

After the public outcry subsided, Lu Liruan posted a Weibo post briefly explaining what had happened.

Evil cannot be covered up; I hope we can all stay true to ourselves.

Cheng Nianzhi retweeted Lu Liruan's Weibo post.

[Ah! Did Ah Zhi already know about this? Otherwise, why would he have been so supportive of Li Ruan from the very beginning of the show?]

[Yeah, Ah Zhi definitely knew what kind of person Li Ruan was before we did, sob sob, now that I think about it, it all makes sense.]

Ah Zhi is so gentle. He stayed by Li Ruan's side even before the truth was revealed. It made me cry so much...

Lu Liruan hadn't seen Cheng Nianzhi for two days. He was very busy this week, leaving early and returning late. By Friday night, Lu Liruan had already gone to bed when she heard noises coming from the corridor.

Lu Liruan jumped off the bed, and only when she reached the door did she realize that she might have been a little too excited.

Lu Liruan pushed the door open a crack and saw Cheng Nianzhi. He was still wearing his costume. It was the first time Lu Liruan had ever seen him wearing ripped jeans.

Hearing the sound, Cheng Nianzhi looked over.

Lu Liruan realized she had been discovered and had no choice but to leave.

The dim, soft light of the corridor fell on the girl. She was wearing a thin, figure-hugging light pink nightgown, her hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and she had an innocent smile on her lips.

"Hey! Ah Zhi, you've been really busy this week!" Lu Liruan looked him over carefully, then suddenly her eyes widened: "What happened to your face? Are you alright?"

Cheng Nianzhi's brow bone and the corner of his mouth had bluish bruises, as if he had just been in a fight.

Cheng Nianzhi followed her gaze and raised her hand to touch it: "It's okay, it's just special effects makeup. I didn't have time to take it off after coming back from the film set today."

After saying that, Cheng Nianzhi took a step forward and bent down slightly to let Lu Liruan confirm.

Once she got closer, Lu Liruan realized that she wasn't actually injured and was relieved.

Relieved, Lu Liruan didn't notice the hint of joy in Cheng Nianzhi's gaze as he looked down at her.

Yes, no one else can do it. Only her care and concern for him makes him feel special. Cheng Nianzhi wants more.

"Although I've already said it, I still want to thank you again. You're very thoughtful; you didn't reveal anyone's information." Lu Liruan knew, of course, who was behind this.

“It’s alright, you don’t need to thank them on their behalf.” Cheng Nianzhi shook his head.

"I'm not saying thank you on behalf of someone else, but I really think you're a good person for helping to expose this." Lu Liruan gave a thumbs up.

Today on set, I learned online what "friend zone" means for Cheng Nianzhi. His expression froze for a moment, but then he returned to normal.

Before Lu Liruan could speak again, Cheng Nianzhi's phone rang.

He glanced at the screen and turned slightly to the side: "Hello."

"Ah Zhi, Jin Yu just called me..." It was Shi Jingyun on the other end of the phone.

Cheng Nianzhi leaned against the wall, half of his body submerged in shadow, making it impossible to see his expression.

His long, drooping eyelashes trembled as he adjusted his facial muscles, adopting a sorrowful expression.

He hung up the phone, looked up, and smiled at Lu Liruan. Lu Liruan felt that he was made of thin glass, so fragile that he would shatter at the slightest touch of her fingertips, making her feel sorry for him in the quiet night.

The corridor was too quiet. Lu Liruan vaguely heard Shi Jingyun's voice over there, but she couldn't make out what he was saying.

Judging from Cheng Nianzhi's reaction, it's possible that it's about tomorrow's...group assignments?

Before Lu Liruan could finish guessing, Cheng Nianzhi got up and opened his bedroom door: "Liruan, good night, get some rest."

"Oh, um, you should get some rest too," Lu Liruan said hurriedly.

"tomorrow……"

"Ok?"

"It's nothing." Cheng Nianzhi gently closed the door, leaving Lu Liruan standing in the corridor, staring blankly at his door.
