She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 321 - 320: Her Husband Married Her While Waiting for Someone Else to Transmigrate (32)
"What’s gotten into him?" Ji Wuyan asked.
Ah Chen replied, "Bai Ying has appeared in Lu Fengqiu’s body."
Ji Wuyan understood immediately. So that’s how it is, he speculated it might have something to do with her. Considering some of the things he investigated, he was still perplexed by many questions.
"Do they seem to care a lot about Bai Ying?"
Ah Chen chuckled, "They like her; you could say it’s an unrequited love," then she dropped a bombshell, "They’re all reincarnated, so they firmly believe Bai Ying has transmigrated into my body and are waiting for her."
Ji Wuyan paused, so that’s how it was.
It made sense now. From the information he knew, something always felt off. If they’re reincarnated, even Yu Xiaoran’s insistence on marrying her made sense - it wasn’t about their compatibility charts.
Is she the same?
Ji Wuyan didn’t ask further; it didn’t matter if she was or wasn’t.
He crouched at the dressing table, looking at her through the mirror.
Ah Chen let her hair down, reached out to tap his head, propped her chin with her hand, and asked, "Do you want to turn into a human tonight?"
Ji Wuyan was tempted, but thinking about Lu Wangqiu’s chaos, he worried that if he came looking for her and found him in her room, it would be hard to explain.
"Not tonight. I don’t want to cause you trouble, especially if he comes by again."
Ah Chen’s eyes sparkled with amusement, "There are so many cabinets here, I could hide you anywhere. But, indeed, it’s much easier to hide a little frog."
"Chenchen."
"Hmm?"
Even in his frog form, Ji Wuyan’s eyes were incredibly earnest. Ah Chen could see it, and she heard him say, "I’ve had all my private assets sorted out. The shares are tied to the family and are difficult to transfer, but the dividends will go into your account every year."
The rumors outside differed from who she truly was. Regardless of whether she liked it or not, he was determined to give them to her. Since he had chosen her, he wouldn’t hesitate. Initially, he didn’t plan to mention this now; he was waiting for her to divorce, for them to officially start their relationship, and then reveal it. Otherwise, it would seem like he was trying to use these to entice her into being with him.
Of course, he wouldn’t mind if she was truly enticed.
Previously, Lu Wangqiu’s words bothered him. She didn’t seem to mind those words, but knowing that she faced ridicule and contempt, living almost like a tenant here, it troubled him. Lu Mingxue never wronged them financially but did allow the Lu Family Brothers to look down on and belittle her.
Some people think money is enough, but as humans, we have emotions, we feel sadness, sorrow, and a need for recognition and care.
He didn’t believe a person was just born with a certain character. They said she was vain, flamboyant, greedy, and unpresentable, but she grew up in the Lu Family. Wasn’t all of this caused by them? What right did they have to judge?
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll run away with all the money?" Ah Chen teased, "I never imagined a love-struck frog."
Ah Chen picked him up and held him in her palm. Man and frog locked eyes.
"But I like you like this."
"I like everything you give me."
Ji Wuyan felt delighted. Being able to give them away was enough; he just feared she wouldn’t like it.
"Mr. Frog, do you want to become human and chat with me?" she asked, holding a clean towel in her hand.
Ji Wuyan was about to speak when the door suddenly knocked, and Lu Wangqiu’s voice simultaneously sounded, "Bai Chen, open the door; I have something to discuss."
"Seems like we’ll have to wait a bit," Ah Chen released him. "I’ll go see what tricks he has up his sleeve."
There were two people at the door.
Ji Wuyan sensed it too; the Frog Clan had their own talents. He jumped onto Ah Chen’s shoulder and whispered, "There are two people at the door."
He had a feeling Lu Wangqiu’s sudden visit meant no good; his previous anger was now replaced with excessive politeness.
"I know."
Ji Wuyan said nothing more, fearing the people outside might hear.
The moment Ah Chen opened the door, a cold breeze brushed by. She didn’t evade, and with a backhanded slap, both people at the door were hit, yelping in pain.
Bai Ying clutched her face, tears falling from the pain, unable to believe Ah Chen’s quick reaction.
She looked pitifully at Lu Wangqiu, indicating there was nothing she could do.
Lu Wangqiu rubbed his aching face, shouting angrily, "Bai Chen, what are you doing?"
"Shouldn’t I be asking you? You came with someone ready to hit me; am I not allowed to retaliate? You missed, and now you’re humiliated?" Ah Chen maintained her smile, "What’s the matter? Speak."
Lu Wangqiu gritted his teeth, ultimately dragging Bai Ying away.
Watching it all, Lu Fengqiu sighed. Since Bai Chen did it, how could a slap transfer Bai Ying back to her body? They’re being too simplistic. Haven’t they noticed Bai Chen has completely taken control?
Even Yu Xiaoran couldn’t handle her, having to do as she instructed... wait, as she instructed...
"Bai Chen, can you hear me?" Lu Fengqiu’s voice suddenly came through.
Ah Chen closed the door, not intending to pursue. All under one roof, she could hear Lu Fengqiu’s voice.
"Big brother, do you have something to say?" she asked.
Lu Fengqiu asked, "How can I escape my current predicament?"
Trapped in a dark place, feeling someone else control his body, it’s an unpleasant experience.
"Smart big brother."
Lu Fengqiu said nothing, knowing it was unwise to provoke her now; staying silent was safer.
"Big brother is more likable than the second brother, at least not saying things that would make him disliked. Alright, I’ll tell you. On the last day of the month, big brother can regain control of his body, slap either the second brother or Yu Xiaoran, and that will transfer Bai Ying’s soul."
"You have to slap hard, or it might not transfer."
Lu Fengqiu understood. So that’s why Yu Xiaoran suddenly slapped him hard; he could still recall the stinging pain.
"Bai Chen, does this have an end?" he asked, not blaming or getting angry about her actions.
He was more rational than Lu Wangqiu, understanding her reasons. Since she too was reincarnated, no more questions were needed. If he were in her shoes, with such means, he wouldn’t let them off either.
Even if he liked Bai Ying, from Bai Chen’s perspective, Bai Ying was occupying her body. Her anger and resentment were normal.
Of course, if he could fight back, he would undoubtedly help Bai Ying.
Since he couldn’t, he could only ensure his own escape first.
"There is," Ah Chen said, "You should know when it ends."
Lu Fengqiu quickly thought of it — once Bai Ying leaves, it’s over, right?
"How will you explain it if Dad sees me acting strange tomorrow?" he asked again.
Ah Chen laughed, "It’s the you outside acting strange. Why should I explain? Or do you think the second brother would flip the table?"
Lu Fengqiu fell silent, realizing she was right.
For now, Wangqiu shouldn’t flip the table.
"Bai Chen, in the end, the Lu Family raised you. If things get exposed, Dad will be hurt too."
Ah Chen: "Because the Lu Family raised me, am I to be manipulated? I’m not your house slave to be pinched and trampled on as you like. It’s not ancient times where you could keep slaves. Dad indeed did us a favor, gave us a meal, and provided a stable home, but that’s him, not you. You instead caused us much psychological harm. Besides, my mom has contributed a lot to this family over the years. She’s not a useless parasite. Big brother, having money doesn’t make you right." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
"Saying the Lu Family raised me, it’s not a right for you to claim."
