She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!

”Sister Chenchen, I’ve decided to study seriously,” she said, trying hard to smile, but because she hadn’t smiled in years, it looked a bit odd. ”Actually, I can keep up. Getting into a university shouldn’t be a problem.”

Ah Chen understood. Even though Tan Sui seemed to have taken a non-mainstream path all these years, acting like a bad girl, she hadn’t fallen behind in her studies; she just intentionally did poorly on exams.

”Then congratulations on your rebirth. Once you get into university, you can apply for student loans, rest assured. You can also work part-time, and if you do well, there will be many people willing to help you.”

Tan Sui’s eyes lit up, clearly unaware of these opportunities.

”I will.”

”I will, Sister Chenchen, thank you.”

Wei Wenlan also encouraged Tan Sui: ”You must keep going; I have high hopes for you. Never give up on yourself.”

Bai Xingwen added: ”Living well yourself is truly what matters. Those who aren’t good to you don’t deserve your attention. Remember, don’t hurt yourself anymore. Others won’t empathize; they’ll just use you as a topic of gossip. You need to become strong and take control of your life so no one dares to bully you.”

”Thank you.” Tan Sui’s eyes turned red; she wouldn’t give up on herself anymore.

She had been so foolish before.

Really foolish.

After dropping Tan Sui off at her school, Ah Chen drove back to the Tan Family villa.

”This little girl is rather pitiful,” Wei Wenlan said, sighing. ”Luckily, she figured things out.”

Ah Chen didn’t respond. Here, she understood, but when the real story happened, she probably never understood. Jumping from the third floor was the true story behind this backdrop.

Tan Sui should be dead. The Tan Family’s fate afterward was unknown, but she was somewhat curious about what the ending was.

Did the Tan Family feel guilt towards Tan Sui later on?

Perhaps a little, but Tan Ruifeng and his wife would never admit they were wrong, nor would they admit they owed Tan Sui anything. They would only think Tan Sui didn’t know how lucky she was and had a strange temper. Even if they felt remorse, they would tell others they were too busy before to manage her. But if they weren’t busy, could they have the good life they have now? Ultimately, they were just making excuses for themselves.

Ah Chen had seen countless people and things like this.

”Brother, will Tan Sui’s domain level up?” Xiao Pan asked. ”It’s really different; it’s the first time I’ve heard Tan Sui say she wants to study hard and get into university.”

Bai Chao said, ”This time, it really might.”

”Now it depends on what she plans to do once she wakes up.”

Mentioning this, Xiao Pan shook his head and sighed, ”Although the difficulty in Tan Sui’s domain isn’t high, as long as you meet the requirements, you can basically survive. But if no one cares about Tan Sui, the psychological shadow will be considerable.”

Bai Chao chuckled, ”Just take it as courage training. If they fail the level and can’t get out, they can join the ranks of those who scare others in the future.”

What psychological shadow?

Ah Chen was somewhat curious; if it weren’t for others being in the car, she would have asked directly.

Returning to the villa, Huo Jingchen saw Ah Chen and the others unharmed, relieved.

”Did anything happen over there?” Huo Jingchen asked. ”What about Tan Sui?”

”She went to school,” Ah Chen replied.

Wei Wenlan explained what they saw at the time, and Huo Jingchen and the others sighed. Tan Ruifeng and his wife were truly biased; no wonder Tan Sui turned out this way.

It’s good she figured it out.

Even if they knew this might not be real, they still felt sympathy for the young girl, Tan Sui.

”There shouldn’t be any more issues now, right?” Wei Yao asked, stretching. ”It’s almost noon. As long as we wait until five in the afternoon, we can clear the level and move on to the next stage.”

Mentioning this, everyone tensed up.

The first level wasn’t difficult, but they didn’t know about the second level. They were all ordinary people; how would they face a crisis? Would there be rewards for clearing the first level? Rewarding some items would give them more confidence.

Wei Yao suddenly remembered something. Previously, Ah Chen was able to catch Tan Sui, who jumped from the third floor. According to previous assumptions, they shouldn’t have entered with their physical bodies, but the sense of touch remained very real. None of them had gained any special abilities.

Li Chen not only caught her but also wasn’t injured. Is that possible?

”How did you catch Tan Sui without getting hurt?” Wei Yao asked, purely out of curiosity. There was no other intention. Having a skillful teammate was a good thing for them. If it wasn’t Li Chen but instead Jingchen, Qin Lin, or him, it would be even better.

Ah Chen noticed the regret in Wei Yao’s eyes and found it amusing.

She smiled and said, ”What, you can’t?”

Her words were still full of sarcasm. Wei Yao’s good mood was instantly ruined. Li Chen just had to use words to mock him, didn’t she? Holding a grudge, indeed.

Even though they all wanted to know what was going on, after Wei Yao touched upon a sore subject, everyone shifted topics and didn’t ask Ah Chen about the situation anymore. After all, it’s a person’s privacy, and not answering was perfectly normal.

Lunchtime passed quietly.

After the meal, many planned to return to their rooms to rest for a while.

Currently, the living room only had Ah Chen, Huo Jingchen, and Bai Xingwen remaining. This wasn’t the place to talk, so they didn’t say much, just stared at the TV.

Suddenly, a shadow was slowly approaching on the ground not far behind Ah Chen.

”Brother, she didn’t trigger any rules; why is she still attracting a monster attack?” Xiao Pan was puzzled.

Bai Chao: ”It should be fine.”

As he spoke, he remained vigilant. Even if she was attacked, killed by a monster, if the world’s rules didn’t erase her, she would only become a part of this world, yet he was still worried.

Most people wouldn’t want to stay here.

”In Tan Sui’s domain, the people she cares about will definitely be okay,” Bai Chao added.

”Brother, what’s wrong? Why do I feel like you’re a bit nervous?”

”Am I?”

”Yes, oh, you’re worried about Bai Xingwen?” Xiao Pan suddenly realized. ”So how did this monster get lured out?”

”You’ll know by watching.”

At this moment, the shadow on the ground suddenly stood up, right behind Ah Chen.

Sitting in two other positions, Bai Xingwen and Huo Jingchen both saw it and were stunned. First, they exclaimed, ”Get out of the way!”

As the shadow monster was about to strangle Ah Chen, she slightly tilted her head and picked up the ashtray from the table, smashing it onto the shadow monster. Like a person, it staggered from the blow.

But it was still unwilling, trying to rush forward to attack Ah Chen again.

Ah Chen continued to smash it with the ashtray, and the shadow monster was knocked unconscious, writhing on the ground.

Knowing it couldn’t win against Ah Chen, it slipped away like a shadow, disappearing into the cracks, not knowing where it went.

Is this even possible?

This was the thought in Bai Xingwen and Huo Jingchen’s minds. The monster in this level didn’t seem strong?

The door suddenly opened, and in walked a girl with a delicate, gentle appearance. Ah Chen recognized her at once as Tan Sui.

”Why are you back?” Ah Chen asked.

”I took a leave. I’ll go to school tomorrow,” Tan Sui swept her hair behind her ears. ”Since you all are leaving today, I’ll see you off later.”

”You look very nice,” Ah Chen complimented. ”You had a unique style before, more suited to a costume party.”

Tan Sui smiled, then said, ”I’ll go to my room and put my things away first.”

She hurriedly went upstairs, and Ah Chen saw her hand hidden in her sleeve clutching something, dark and shadowy, the same shadow she had nearly knocked out with an ashtray earlier?

In her room, Tan Sui threw the shadow onto the ground, and it transformed into the appearance of Tan Rui.

Seeing Tan Rui’s terrified expression, she said, ”Even if it’s not really him, it’s annoying enough!”
