I Have the Aura of a Supporting Character in Yuri Novels - Chapter 15

It was the first time Zhu Yun had ever been carried in a bridal-style. The powerful arms and intoxicating scent of Tang Yueqi made her head spin. She wished she could stay in Tang Yueqi’s embrace forever.

Tang Yueqi’s gentle voice sounded in her ear, making her so shy she didn’t know where to look. “You’re so light. When are you going to fatten yourself up?”

“Who’s light? I’m heavy, alright! Over a hundred pounds, with a great chest and waist, a devilishly good figure! Be careful, you might get a nosebleed from looking at me!” Zhu Yun raised her voice, as if to make herself sound more confident and avoid being betrayed by her rosy cheeks. She didn’t want Tang Yueqi to misunderstand and think she was a coward—she wasn’t shy at all! What’s the big deal about being carried by a woman?

Tang Yueqi looked down at Zhu Yun’s now red face, and an uncontrollable feeling surged out, making her heart pound. She couldn’t help but tighten her embrace and carry Zhu Yun to the sofa.

“Hey, why aren’t you saying anything?”

Zhu Yun, whose self-talk went unanswered, began to feel a strange panic. It felt as if she wasn’t sitting on Tang Yueqi’s lap but on a cloud, soft and fluffy, making her want to knead it into a ball and hold it.

Tang Yueqi reached out and stroked Zhu Yun’s cheek. Tang Yueqi’s fingers were a little cool, which unexpectedly pleased Zhu Yun, who leaned in and pressed her face closer to her fingertips. Zhu Yun murmured, “That feels so nice.”

Her overly flushed face needed the coolness. Her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow, and her small face was pressed tightly against Tang Yueqi’s palm. It felt as if a slight twitch of Tang Yueqi’s finger could touch her mischievous eyelashes.

Tang Yueqi swallowed. This trusting look was incredibly alluring.

“Xiao Zhu.”

Her voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of fatigue, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.

This contrast made Zhu Yun, who was looking up at Tang Yueqi, purse her lips. She looked adorable and said boldly, “You missed me a lot.”

It was a statement, not a question. Her unwavering tone blew away Tang Yueqi’s composure. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled with animated eyes. “Yes, I missed you a lot.”

It turned out that the saying, “A day apart feels like three years,” wasn’t just a lie.

“How much did you miss me?”

Zhu Yun nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, not bad. She knew how to miss her, which meant the flight was worthwhile and made up for a day of travel.

Tang Yueqi said softly, “I missed you very, very much, so thank you, Xiao Zhu.”

“Why are you thanking me?” Zhu Yun asked, puzzled.

Tang Yueqi hugged her again, her lips unintentionally brushing against Zhu Yun’s jawline. That fleeting, soft warmth was unforgettable. Tang Yueqi said, “Thank you for showing up suddenly and easing the pain of my longing.”

“You’re a bit too mushy,” Zhu Yun said, blinking uncomfortably. She was acting tough, but her body had turned to liquid, letting Tang Yueqi hug her.

In reality, longing isn’t bitter, because all the accumulated bitterness turns to honey the moment you see that person. The more bitterness you have, the more honey you get.

So, longing isn’t bitter at all.

“I’m a genius!”

Zhu Yun praised herself happily. She knew that a moment of impulsive decision was the right choice; otherwise, she wouldn’t have seen her.

She looked up, a sweet smile blooming on her face. She admitted that she had a thing for women in glasses, but among thousands of them, Tang Yueqi was the most special!

“Why do I feel like you’ve lost some weight?”

Tang Yueqi pinched her cheek. “I’m always like this. When I have something on my mind, my weight drops.”

Zhu Yun was incredulous but also a little envious. She pouted and hugged Tang Yueqi tightly. “When you get back, I’ll cook for you to help you gain some weight.”

“Okay, my little chef.”

Zhu Yun’s ears were getting hot again. She said a little haughtily, “Don’t take advantage of me so easily. I’m not falling for your tricks.”

Tang Yueqi chuckled softly. “Then, how about I fall for yours?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. I’m pure and kind. I don’t have any schemes!”

Zhu Yun reached out and rubbed her cheek, playfully teasing Tang Yueqi.

As she looked at her, her eyes fell on those red lips—full, soft, and the color of rose petals.

Zhu Yun was like a greedy child, curious about what they tasted like, maybe like roses.

So, on an impulse, she touched them. They were sticky, seemingly from residual syrup. Zhu Yun licked her lips and asked, “Lemon candy?”

Tang Yueqi was frozen as if her pressure points had been hit. Her limbs were out of her control, and even her heart was a mess.

Perhaps sensing Tang Yueqi’s stiffness, Zhu Yun, still in her arms, continued her antics with a flushed face.

She expertly pulled out the candy from Tang Yueqi’s pocket and asked, “Do you want… do you want to eat one with me?”

Upon hearing the invitation, Tang Yueqi’s body went limp. The sentence echoed in her mind. Although nothing had happened, Tang Yueqi was a mess.

She was fragile and only watched Zhu Yun with a pair of beautiful, devout eyes.

Ambiguity swelled, and invisible hands pushed the two of them closer.

“Bang, bang, bang,” someone knocked on the door, and Mu Nianqiao’s voice could be faintly heard.

[Huh?]

[So close!]

[Ahhhh!]

The knocking and the system’s voice brought Zhu Yun back to her senses. Remembering what she had just done, Zhu Yun’s earlobes turned so red they could drip blood. Looking at Tang Yueqi lying there with her hair spread out, looking ready to be “plucked,” Zhu Yun heard the increasingly urgent knocking. She decided to go all the way, closed her eyes, kissed Tang Yueqi on the lips again, and said shyly, “Someone’s here, you should get up.”

Tang Yueqi sighed, pushed up her glasses, and sat up. She gave Zhu Yun a deep look, then, no longer holding back, she cupped Zhu Yun’s face and kissed her. A moment later, she wiped the moisture from her lips and rose elegantly.

[Xiao Zhu! You’re amazing!]

[You actually won over the female lead!]

System 857 was so excited that it yelled, causing Zhu Yun to laugh and scold it, “This isn’t ‘winning over.’ That word has too many implications, and I don’t like it. I never expected it to go this far. I originally just wanted to become her best friend to avoid the plot-driven death and not be seen as a relationship-wrecking bad woman by netizens. I’ll tell you a little secret: I even thought about pretending to be a fan of her and the male lead’s couple—if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. But it turns out, she and I became the most popular couple on the show.”

She shyly cupped her face, feeling more and more that they were a match made in heaven. The male lead was useless; as soon as she appeared, she stole all his thunder. What did that prove? It proved that she was more powerful than the male lead!

Zhu Yun smiled smugly, her eyes involuntarily glancing at Tang Yueqi.

She always believed in the principle of “the early bird gets the worm.”

This brief separation made Zhu Yun realize what the vague feeling in her heart was. She wanted to hold on to this feeling tightly, so she had to act first. No matter what Tang Yueqi’s identity was or who her female lead was, Zhu Yun only cared if Tang Yueqi could belong to her. Nothing else mattered.

“857, if Ah Yue and I are together, will it cause her any harm?”

[Why would you ask that?]

The system was still in an excited state, not expecting a newbie like Zhu Yun to be so successful. It was even planning to give Zhu Yun a big reward.

“Because I’m afraid my presence will ruin her life and disrupt her path. After all, in the original fate, we were from two different worlds.”

Zhu Yun was anxious. The huge joy was like waves crashing on the shore, but when the tide receded, the problems left behind were like merciless sand, trapping her deeper and deeper.

[Why would it? You’re an anomaly. You can rewrite your own ending. Since you’ve changed, why not others? The world allows you to exist, which means it accepts the appearance of an anomaly like you.]

Zhu Yun’s eyes brightened again. She was overjoyed and said, “Okay!”

[Xiao Zhu is such a good girl~]

While Zhu Yun was being comforted, Tang Yueqi, on the other side, was feeling gloomy.

Her eyes were cold, making Mu Nianqiao smile awkwardly. “Ah Yue, what’s with that look?”

“Shijie, is something wrong?”

“Ah Yue, is there a possibility that this room is mine?” Mu Nianqiao’s eyes widened. She sized up Tang Yueqi, whose expression was as aloof as ever, but the blush on her face couldn’t be ignored. Then, seeing Zhu Yun behind her with a similarly red face, Mu Nianqiao understood.

No wonder Ah Yue’s eyes looked like they were hiding daggers. She was just… sexually frustrated!

Mu Nianqiao gave a knowing smile. “I get it, I get it. We’ve all been there.”

“…”

Tang Yueqi rolled her eyes in an unladylike manner and handed her the room card. The reason Mu Nianqiao had her room card was that Mu Nianqiao had suddenly arrived and taken over Tang Yueqi’s room to instruct the dancers. So, after a few days of tense nerves, Tang Yueqi, seeing someone take over, went to a room Mu Nianqiao hadn’t stayed in yet to get some sleep.

“Why are you giving this to me? Keep it. My room is quiet. Just make sure you two don’t get caught.”

Mu Nianqiao waved to Zhu Yun. Seeing her sweet smile, a look of amusement flashed in her eyes. Mu Nianqiao lowered her voice. “They say old ginger is spicier. Listening to your teacher is never wrong, right?”

Tang Yueqi said teasingly, “Then when are you going to listen to your teacher and hurry up and get married?”

Mu Nianqiao coughed. Dating and marriage were two different things. No need to rush, no need to rush.

“Hurry back. Stop giving me that sexually frustrated look.”

The thin-skinned Tang Yueqi immediately closed the door. Mu Nianqiao leaned against the wall, laughing heartily. Seeing her like this made the decision to risk knocking on the door feel completely right!

Soon, the door opened again.

“Since you’re here, you’re in charge of the rest of the work.”

“Huh?”

Tang Yueqi smiled gently. “Xiao Zhu can’t be without me.”

“Huh?”

Mu Nianqiao looked at the door that was once again closed. She gritted her teeth and quickly dialed a number, squatting by the door and muttering, “Teacher, I want to report something!”

Ah Yue is in love, so how about you find someone else to pressure into marriage?
