The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Xiao Yuan sat in the car, watching the He Xiaohong family from a distance in the shadows.

He saw Sun Fu making a phone call, watched He Xiaohong and Sun He Ping complain to each other, until the family walked far away, Xiao Yuan reached into his pocket, and found nothing.

He kind of wanted to smoke, but he had quit smoking for many lifetimes now, so he no longer had the habit of carrying cigarettes, and now he really had empty hands.

Xiao Yuan rummaged around in the car and managed to find a few pieces of chewing gum.

He took one and threw it into his mouth, chewing while calculating Sun Hong’s current location.

Although his calculations were not very accurate, he still knew the general area where Sun Hong was now.

Knowing that Sun Hong had reached the deep mountains, Xiao Yuan felt somewhat relieved.

Only then did he start driving back.

Halfway through, the Old Madam called and asked Xiao Yuan to come over for a meal.

Xiao Yuan drove over.

The Old Madam wanted Xiao Yuan to come over not only to eat but also to discuss the matter of finding relatives.

Since knowing that He Dahong was actually Xie family’s real daughter, they couldn’t just leave the daughter outside, she must be recognized.

During the meal, the Old Madam asked Xiao Yuan, ”Does your mother know about her background?”

Xiao Yuan put down his chopsticks, ”She knows she’s not the biological child of the He family, but she doesn’t know where her biological parents are.”

The Old Madam was a bit worried, ”Do you think if we go to recognize her, she won’t kick us out? After all, it was our confusion that made us recognize He Xiaohong for over ten years, and made your mom suffer for more than ten years.”

Xiao Yuan looked at the Old Madam, ”You worry too much, my mom didn’t suffer much, my dad treats her well, the two of them have a good relationship, their life is quite nice, although not extremely wealthy, it’s still joyful.”

”That’s good, that’s good.”

Hearing that the daughter hadn’t suffered too much, the Old Madam felt a bit reassured.

She didn’t focus on eating, looking at Xie Dong, ”This time you go to Baisha County with Xiao Yuan, go see your sister, ask her what she means? Does she want to recognize us? Also, does she want to come to the Capital? If she is willing to come to the Capital, we will prepare a house, if not...your father and I will stay in Baisha County for a while.”

”Sure, I should meet my sister.”

Xie Dong agreed straightforwardly.

After eating, Xiao Yuan was about to get up and say goodbye.

The Old Madam stopped Xiao Yuan and had Xie Zhao bring out a lot of things from the kitchen.

”Here are many good wines others gave your grandfather, he has quit drinking now, you take these wines back, along with some tea leaves, and some specialties from the Capital, take them back to make something for the kids to enjoy as well, so that this trip to the Capital wasn’t in vain.”

”Thank you for the trouble.”

Xiao Yuan and Xie Zhao began moving things outside, and the Old Madam followed them out of the house, watching the two pack all sorts of things into the car, and as soon as everything was loaded, Xiao Yuan said goodbye to the Old Madam, he hadn’t yet gotten into the car when someone called him.

”Brother, wait a minute, wait a minute.”

Xiao Yuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Hao Zhicheng pulling Xie Kun, rushing over.

As soon as Hao Zhicheng saw Xiao Yuan, he spoke urgently without catching his breath, ”Brother, I want to ask you about something.”

”Go ahead.”

Xiao Yuan leaned against the car, arms crossed, looking at Hao Zhicheng.

Hao Zhicheng caught a few more breaths, ”It’s like this, I just want to ask if the Cinderella’s Dance Shoes on that ultimate website was written by my sister?”

Xiao Yuan nodded, ”Yes, she wrote two books on the male channel, and then wanted to write a little romance for the female channel, so she wrote this one.”

”It really is her.” Hao Zhicheng laughed, ”Brother, I’ll go back to Baisha County with you this time, I want to discuss something with my sister.”

Xiao Yuan understood, ”Is it about cooperating to shoot a TV series?”

”Brother, you are really clever.”

Hao Zhicheng clapped his hands, ”You don’t know, the three books my sister wrote are really amazing, I’ve read the two on the male channel, I’m her book fan, a real fan, I read each one from start to finish, several times even, even the little romance I read, don’t say, my sister’s writing really hits the heart, when it’s sweet, it’s extremely sweet, when it’s heartbreaking, it makes even a tough guy like me cry, imagine those little girls, they’d surely cry themselves to death, brother, my sister’s writing is like this...”

Hao Zhicheng raised a thumb, ”I’m now managing that Xingchen Entertainment, earlier I was interested in my sister’s writing, and wanted to buy the rights, but my sister didn’t sell them, now knowing it’s written by my sister, forget about rights or no rights, I just want to talk to her and see if we can collaborate.”

”Alright then.”

Xiao Yuan smiled, ”I’ll call Ningning in a while to ask her, if she wants to cooperate you can come with me to Baisha County to finalize the cooperation.”

”Alright, thank you, brother.”

Hao Zhicheng’s face was full of smiles, so much it was ingratiating, ”Brother, from now on you and my sister are my dear brother and sister, if you need anything just say, anything, I won’t hesitate to go through fire and water.”

This guy is also one to seize opportunities.

He knows Xiao Yuan is a powerful Heavenly Master, and nowadays, wealthy families are bound to encounter some troubles, those that want to harm for wealth are not few, who knows when the Hao family would need Xiao Yuan’s help.

Also Anning, Hao Zhicheng is truly a fan of Anning, super fond of the kind of rich fan that rewards a lot for Anning’s writings, he actually wanted to make a TV series out of Anning’s writings, he just wanted to foster a good relationship, so in the future when Anning writes another novel, if he likes one, he can collaborate with Anning through this relationship.

”Got it.”

Xiao Yuan didn’t take Hao Zhicheng’s words too seriously, unlike Xie Kun who is earnest, Hao Zhicheng is a social person, quite slippery, you’d be lucky to trust half of what he says.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yuan turned around in the Capital, and it wasn’t a fruitless venture, he managed to find an antique at the Glass Factory area, of course, he also bought some local snacks from the Capital, intending to take them back to appease the kids.

Early the next morning, Xiao Yuan got up to pack his luggage, Xie Kun drove Xiao Yuan, Xie Dong, and Hao Zhicheng to the airport.

The Xie family prepared a lot of things, but with three grown men, it was certainly manageable.

At the Capital, they finished checking in their luggage, Xiao Yuan sent a message to Anning, telling her the flight number.

Anning had gone to the school to swap classes with other teachers and then drove to the airport.

Around noon, Xiao Yuan and the others came out of the airport, Anning helped them put the luggage into the car, and then drove them to lunch.

Anning didn’t bring them home, but to Baisha County. Anning had already reserved hotels for Hao Zhicheng and Xie Dong, she first went to the hotel to let them put their things away, then arranged to go for a meal together.

During the meal, Xie Dong asked Anning, ”Did you tell my sister about...what does she mean?”
