The Beautiful Female Supporting Character is Flirtatious and Amorous [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 12

Chapter 12: The Whole Family Likes Men, Except Me (12)

“Huh?”

Xu Yangyang’s face was a map of question marks. “What?”

“Nothing.” Seeing Xu Yangyang’s reaction, Zhang Yulan breathed a sigh of relief. If something had actually happened between the two of them last night, Xu Yangyang would never react like this.

She knew her daughter best; when the girl lied, her eyes would visibly flicker, her voice would tremble, and she wouldn’t dare look anyone in the eye.

But her current reaction was different. Confusion, bafflement, and a hint of daze—she didn’t look at all like someone who had shared the “forbidden fruit” with Jiang Ni.

Zhang Yulan’s heart finally settled back into her stomach. “It’s nothing.”

She picked up two pieces of abalone and placed them on Xu Yangyang’s plate, patting her shoulder appreciatively. “Eat more to nourish yourself. Once you achieve even more impressive results, I’ll personally promote you.”

The previous topic was easily glossed over. Xu Yangyang didn’t dwell on it either, nodding instantly like a chick pecking at grain. “Don’t worry, Mom. I definitely won’t let your expectations down.”

Zhang Yulan knew Xu Yangyang was reliable; not only was she capable at work, but she was also delicate and attentive—nothing like that “love-brained rooster” who couldn’t even lay an egg.

Thinking of Meng Zhichuan, Zhang Yulan’s face darkened. “Where is your brother? Did he not come home again last night?”

Xu Yangyang stammered. Though she didn’t answer, her meaning was clear.

Zhang Yulan was instantly fuming. Forgetting about breakfast, she immediately prepared to head out and hunt down Meng Zhichuan. Xu Yangyang silently lit a candle for him in her heart; at this moment, he was likely sound asleep, cuddling Fang Tingyang’s “body double.”

As soon as Zhang Yulan left in a whirlwind, only Xu Yangyang and Jiang Ni remained at the dining table.

Because she had secretly kissed Xu Yangyang the night before, Jiang Ni felt a bit guilty facing her now. Fortunately, Xu Yangyang was acting exactly as usual, which allowed Jiang Ni’s slightly nervous heart to relax.

To shift the focus, Jiang Ni spoke up: “There’s a project. Perhaps we can collaborate.”

Xu Yangyang’s eyes lit up. “Let’s find a time to sit down and discuss the details.”

“Okay,” Jiang Ni replied with a smile, then continued to serve Xu Yangyang as usual, placing food in her bowl and attending to her throughout the meal.

Previously, Jiang Ni had done this often, and Xu Yangyang hadn’t noticed anything amiss. But after that kiss, Xu Yangyang was finally realizing Jiang Ni’s “unmentionable” feelings.

However, the top priority in Xu Yangyang’s mind was to scout the situation on Meng Zhichuan’s front. Thus, as soon as breakfast ended, she saw Jiang Ni off and hurried to the company.

Jiang Ni sat in her car, watching the direction of Xu Yangyang’s departing vehicle, and let out a nearly imperceptible sigh.

Su Rui was waiting for Xu Yangyang in the office early. Seeing today’s exceptionally radiant Xu Yangyang, she froze for a moment before collecting her thoughts to dutifully report some company gossip.

Xu Yangyang hadn’t strictly required Su Rui to do this; Su Rui felt so much guilt from her frequent blunders that she took it upon herself to scout for news and help Xu Yangyang stay on top of the office dynamics.

After listening, Xu Yangyang looked up at Su Rui. “Xiao Su, have you ever considered a different kind of work?”

Su Rui froze, and her eyes instantly turned red. “General Manager… do you not want me anymore? I’m sorry. I know I’m bad at my job and always cause trouble, but I really love being with you.”

“Out of so many strangers in the past, only you, General Manager, have been kind to me and tolerated me.”

“If I accidentally do something wrong, just tell me, okay? I’ll change immediately.” She cried like a pear blossom in the rain, gasping for breath. “Please don’t fire me…”

Su Rui stared with her red, fawn-like eyes, pleading pitifully. “Can you?”

Xu Yangyang: “?”

Clearly, Su Rui had misunderstood. But simultaneously, it was clear that Su Rui was acting very “not right.”

Xu Yangyang stared at Su Rui quietly until the girl was about to break and bolt out the door. “You’ve misunderstood.” She gave Su Rui a reassuring smile. “What I meant was, I think your work ability is quite good, so I want to officially bring you into my core team.”

Su Rui was stunned for a long time until her gaze met Xu Yangyang’s curved, smiling eyes.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, a subtle sensation blooming within.

Su Rui felt that Xu Yangyang was becoming increasingly charming—not just an attraction to her looks, but a deep moving of the soul by her beautiful personality.

Su Rui heard herself ask in an insecure tone, “I… can I really?”

“Of course.” Xu Yangyang looked at Su Rui sincerely. “Don’t you think you’re amazing? These days, you’ve not only taken care of my daily life but also took the initiative to help solve problems at the company, exceeding the tasks I gave you.”

“If it were someone else, they might not have done as well as you.”

Su Rui didn’t know how she eventually left the room. She stood in the hallway outside the General Manager’s office, feeling light as a feather. Her head felt weightless, her body felt weightless; she was like a bubble that would fly off the ground with a gentle breeze.

The General Manager praised me!

Su Rui couldn’t help but raise her hands to cover her blushing cheeks.

She didn’t just praise me; she commended me, wants to promote me, give me a raise, and gave full affirmation to my hard work and dedication these past few days…

When a “corporate slave” works themselves to the bone for a month, isn’t this exactly what they want in the end?

The corners of Su Rui’s mouth stretched upward uncontrollably. Standing alone in the cold corner, she looked out of place in the company, but her heart and soul were already filled with Xu Yangyang’s “love.”

The General Manager is so wonderful.

Su Rui ran off giggling, unable to calm her excitement for a long time.

0357 saw this development and knew things were going south. It looked at Xu Yangyang with conflict, wanting to urge her to follow the mission, but knowing full well it was powerless against her.

So… maybe wait a little longer?

In any case, the Main System hadn’t shown any reaction so far.

Xu Yangyang’s decision to snatch Su Rui over to her side was calculated. At the very least, based on the original plot, she knew the female lead’s luck was incredibly good—ridiculously good, in fact.

She really wanted to see what kind of good news Su Rui would bring to her team, and even more, she wanted to see how Meng Zhichuan would fare without Su Rui’s “lucky charm.”

Correct the plot? At the moment, Xu Yangyang had absolutely no such intention.

Isn’t the current development great? Xu Yangyang became a General Manager, Jiang Ni developed her own romantic spark, Su Rui got a promotion and a raise and is on the right track in life, and Meng Zhichuan successfully got his “White Moonlight” substitute.

Every single one of them has a bright and beautiful future.
