The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

When Qin Xiaocong and Xiao Yishan come back and find out about Xiaomeng’s situation, these two will be furious as well.

Qin Xiaocong said about Qin Xiaomeng, ”I’ve long said that Feng Yino isn’t as good as she appears. I advised you not to get too close to her, but you wouldn’t listen. Now see, this mess is created. She’s planning to trap you for life.”

People like Old Madam, if their nature is a bit worse, even if accidents don’t happen, they will relentlessly trap you. If something bad does happen, it will be endless—today her back hurts she’ll find you, tomorrow her itch she’ll bother you. Anyway, she’s older and more unabashed; young girls fear trouble. She’s targeting this point; who knows, she might cling endlessly, as long as she’s not dead, it won’t end.

Xiao Yishan also said, ”I don’t like Feng Yino either, I just find her annoying.”

Xiao Yilin quickly interrupted the two, ”Alright, enough, no more talking. The matter has already arisen, what’s the use of complaining about her now? Everyone think of a way, we need to solve the problem first and discuss other things later.”

With Xiao Yilin saying that, Qin Xiaocong immediately fell silent.

After a while, Qin Xiaocong asked Xiao Yilin, ”Second sister, have you eaten?”

Xiao Yilin shook her head, ”I don’t have the appetite.”

”I’ll go to the kitchen to make food for you.” Qin Xiaocong stood up and headed to the kitchen.

”I’ll go.”

Xiao Yilin followed him.

Xiao Yishan sat next to Qin Xiaomeng, her eyes red and swollen from crying like a peach. She also sighed, ”Sis, don’t overthink it. Mom and Dad are here, they will definitely find a solution.”

Qin Xiaomeng was still upset inside. She leaned against Xiao Yishan, ”At that moment, I really lost my mind. How did I not realize that Feng Yino was deliberately saying those things? If I had been more cautious, I wouldn’t have let her throw dirt on me. Honestly... she was the one who caused the accident. Why did I show off? If I had stayed behind and done nothing, wouldn’t there be no problem?”

Xiao Yishan knew Qin Xiaomeng was definitely feeling low, so she quietly comforted her.

In the kitchen, Xiao Yilin was speaking to Qin Xiaocong.

”And you, as the brother, can’t you be a little understanding of your sister? What are you saying? Xiaomeng is already feeling bad, and you’re making it worse with those words, you...”

”I know, I know, I’m wrong, alright?”

Qin Xiaocong clasped his hands together, begging Xiao Yilin, ”Sis, I really know I’m wrong. Please stop scolding me.”

Xiao Yilin took vegetables out of the fridge, and Qin Xiaocong saw her expression wasn’t great, so he moved closer to help with the vegetables: ”I’m just anxious. Honestly, I’m not blaming Xiaomeng. She’s upset, and it’s making me feel bad too.”

Xiao Yilin snatched the vegetables from Qin Xiaocong: ”Fine, I’ll handle the vegetables. You cut the meat. You have strength and can manage.”

Qin Xiaocong took meat from the fridge and started cutting it.

As he cut the meat, he quietly discussed with Xiao Yilin, ”I can’t let Xiaomeng suffer in silence like this. Hmph, fraud, huh? Let’s see, I don’t believe I can’t handle them.”

”What are you planning?”

Xiao Yilin felt tense.

”Nothing, just venting some anger for Xiaomeng first.”

With a smile on his face, Qin Xiaocong’s eyes held a hint of unspeakable mischief.

Xiao Yilin became more worried, dropping the vegetables to grab Qin Xiaocong’s hand: ”Don’t do anything reckless. Mom and Dad are handling it. If you... make things bigger, it won’t end well.”

Qin Xiaocong looked down, seeing Xiao Yilin’s slender, fair hand grasping his wrist.

Xiao Yilin’s hand was always warm, even holding his wrist; it made him feel comfortable.

”I know what I’m doing.”

Qin Xiaocong held his other hand over Xiao Yilin’s: ”I won’t cause trouble, don’t worry.”

Xiao Yilin was still tense: ”You two just won’t let anyone relax.”

Qin Xiaocong laughed: ”I never make you worry. I’ve always listened to you. Think hard, when have I not listened to your words?”

With a smile, though looking at Xiao Yilin with somewhat serious and deep eyes.

Xiao Yilin didn’t notice, drawing her hand back to continue washing and sorting the vegetables: ”Ever since you entered high school, you’ve been more reassuring. Last year you kept us on edge.”

”I won’t anymore.”

Qin Xiaocong leaned close to Xiao Yilin’s ear and whispered: ”From now on, I’ll definitely listen to you, more than anyone.”

”Get away.”

Xiao Yilin’s ear tingled as she pushed Qin Xiaocong hard: ”Stay away from me, focus on cutting meat.”

”Mm.” Qin Xiaocong responded softly, picked up the knife, and continued cutting meat.

Xiao Yilin breathed a sigh of relief.

She washed the vegetables, turning to grab the chopping board, on the rack beside Qin Xiaocong. Without thinking, she reached over to get it.

Qin Xiaocong stood still, as Xiao Yilin grabbed the chopping board. Raising her eyes, she inadvertently saw Qin Xiaocong’s side profile as he looked down.

Over this year, Qin Xiaocong had grown significantly. Xiao Yilin still remembered when Xiao Yuan and Anning first got married, and she met Qin Xiaocong. He wasn’t tall, only a bit taller than her. But over this year, Qin Xiaocong had shot up significantly; now she had to look up at him.

Moreover, the baby fat had faded from Qin Xiaocong’s face, his features became clearer, his facial features more defined, and there was a spark of edge in him.

Now, he’s somewhere between a teenager and young adult; while his features still carried youthful innocence, accompanying Chen Wei across various activities made him lose any adolescent awkwardness, and gain a certain mature stability.

Earlier, Xiao Yilin hadn’t taken a serious look at Qin Xiaocong.

But today, they stood together as the sunset light shone through the window onto Qin Xiaocong’s face, making him appear exceedingly clear to her.

Xiao Yilin suddenly realized, Qin Xiaocong resembles Anning significantly, his features genuinely delicate and flawless, making him exceptionally handsome with an indescribable enchanting beauty.

Moreover, Qin Xiaocong’s skin was inherently fair and smooth; his build perfect. Now tall, with broad shoulders, long legs, standing there, he’s indeed a striking young man.

Xiao Yilin stared at Qin Xiaocong’s side profile, lost in thought.

Qin Xiaocong looked up: ”What? Is there something on my face?”

Xiao Yilin shook her head and suddenly laughed, ”Bro, are there many girls chasing you at school?”

Qin Xiaocong didn’t answer but asked Xiao Yilin, ”What about you? Any men chasing you?”

Xiao Yilin lowered her head: ”Chase what chase, I don’t have time for romance. You know Dad doesn’t give us living expenses anymore, I need to earn to live, maintaining my car. Every day I’m busy to death, no time for romantic things.”

Qin Xiaocong laughed: ”That’s fine, keep it up, don’t rush into romance.”

”And you?”

Xiao Yilin pursued the matter further: ”With such energy, surely there are plenty of girls liking you there?”
