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

”Perhaps not now, I’ve made an appointment with someone,” Ah Chen said, ”Yesterday was just a small favor, anyone who saw you fainting would have helped, don’t give it too much thought.”

”I do care, no one is as considerate as you, senior,” Li Feiwei stuffed the box into Ah Chen’s hand and turned away, ”I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”

Ah Chen looked at the box, judging by its shape, it should be a pen. She put it directly into her pocket.

Li Feiwei didn’t go far, hiding in a corner, staring intently at Ah Chen’s back. He saw her put the box into her pocket and a smile crept onto his face.

After that, he carefully followed her, noticing she went into a café. His brows furrowed. Who is meeting the senior? He began to feel anxious.

Is the senior dating someone?

How could she?

He quickly followed and discovered the person across from Ah Chen was a middle-aged woman, someone slightly familiar, which relieved him. As long as it’s not a man. Wait, that middle-aged woman... could it be Mrs. Ma?

What is Mrs. Ma doing with the senior?

Does it have something to do with Ma Zihou?

Is Ma Zihou interested in the senior? Admittedly, Ma Zihou is not bad-looking, has a good family background, and indeed could attract girls.

The senior wouldn’t be attracted to Ma Zihou, but Mrs. Ma wouldn’t agree, right?

No, no, Mrs. Ma usually doesn’t interfere in these matters.

So, what exactly is going on?

”Miss Ran, let me be straightforward. No matter how you did it, I hope you can let my Ah Hou off this time; he knows he was wrong,” Mrs. Ma spoke with an inevitable sense of superiority.

Upon learning about Ah Chen’s family background, she looked down on her.

If her son weren’t really in pain, she would have suspected it was just his hallucination.

They now await Ran Chen’s response. If the other party admits, then it surely has something to do with Ran Chen. But she thinks there might be someone else behind Ran Chen; after all, how could a girl under eighteen have such capabilities?

It could even be someone trying to target the Ma Family. Mrs. Ma is thinking more strategically.

Thus, she came today with another goal, to grab this girl’s weakness, entice and threaten, and maybe draw out the person behind her.

If the other party doesn’t completely ruin Ah Hou, it suggests there’s a motive.

As long as she can offer what is needed, cooperation with such a talented person isn’t far off. If such a person is willing to collaborate, there’s no need to worry about those brats and illegitimate children outside.

”Mrs. Ma, I don’t know you. Frankly, if you hadn’t called to introduce yourself and arranged to meet here, I would have thought you were a scammer,” Ah Chen said, ”What is it you want from me?”

Mrs. Ma’s eyes widened in surprise. Not taking the bait?

She frowned but quickly chuckled, ”Miss Ran, why pretend to be ignorant? You know what you’ve done and what my son is experiencing, don’t you? Just say what you want directly—money or something else, I can satisfy you.”

Ah Chen shook her head and rose to her feet, smiling, ”Mrs. Ma, I really don’t know you, nor do I understand what you mean. Perhaps there’s been a misunderstanding? Maybe someone relayed a wrong message to you; I think you should go ask that person.”

”You probably... have the wrong person.”

Ah Chen stood up to leave, but Mrs. Ma grabbed her arm, outraged, ”Ran Chen, don’t refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!”

”Mrs. Ma, please let go, or I’ll call someone over. You have a reputation; making a scene wouldn’t look good.” Suddenly, Ah Chen whispered close to her ear, ”If you make me upset, your whole family won’t have peace. Want to try it, Mrs. Ma?”

Whether it was Ah Chen’s tone or the frightening nature of her words, Mrs. Ma involuntarily let go.

She felt utterly cold, and once Ah Chen left the café, she came back to her senses and went into the restroom. Fishing out a recorder pen, her expression turned bleak and somewhat frustrated. As expected, she gained no useful information.

This Ran Chen might look young, but she’s indeed slick.

Just as Mrs. Ma was pondering her next move, a call came from Ma Zihou. She answered and heard Ma Zihou’s voice in pain, her expression turned tense, and she instinctively felt frightened.

Ran Chen, perhaps isn’t an ordinary person? Yes, definitely not ordinary.

Li Feiwei didn’t hear anything. He glanced at Mrs. Ma’s position and pursued Ah Chen.

Ah Chen had long noticed him, didn’t walk too fast, and vaguely sensed that the other person didn’t follow behind but seemed to have changed direction.

As expected, within two minutes, Li Feiwei appeared from the front, his face full of joy as he quickly ran over, ”Senior, weren’t you going for a meal with someone? Have you finished eating?”

”Not yet, I had some coffee.”

”Then... shall we have a meal together?” Li Feiwei asked a bit shyly, his ears turning slightly red, yet his gaze didn’t drift from Ah Chen.

Li Feiwei was tall, much taller than Ah Chen, wearing a not-so-good-looking school uniform, but it didn’t hide his handsome appearance. His slightly lowered head as he asked Ah Chen attracted glances from people around.

They really looked perfect together.

Is this young love?

”Sure,” Ah Chen replied, knowing that if she didn’t, this little wolf might start behaving weirdly.

Li Feiwei’s face was full of joy, grabbing Ah Chen’s wrist and leading her to a decent restaurant.

While eating, Li Feiwei’s attention was on Ah Chen.

On the second day of knowing each other, the senior was already having a meal with him without any defenses, truly easy to deceive. How could he not care for such a simple senior?

He blinked; he must keep a close eye in the future.

Ah Chen could vaguely guess Li Feiwei’s thoughts, feeling amused internally.

From that day onward, Li Feiwei found chances to appear in front of Ah Chen every day, always with an obedient look. Additionally, he’d bring tests he didn’t understand to ask Ah Chen.

Little Fragment loved learning, and Ah Chen was more than willing to help.

Li Feiwei also noticed Ah Chen really liked when he studied earnestly. Initially, his interest in studying was only at thirty percent, now it’s at a hundred percent.

As long as the senior likes it, he’ll do it.

Initially, he thought studying only needed minimal effort; now he just wants a good score. Unfortunately, he hadn’t focused much on this area before, so it wasn’t something achieved overnight, but he could progress gradually.

After school, he used to feel the world was empty, lacking interest in everything. He’d roam around, waiting for someone to bully him as an excuse to start a fight.

Now he just wants to stay in his room to study, striving for a better score next time.

Heard the senior is aiming for the best university in the city, he’s determined to go too, Li Feiwei said with a firm expression.

Mrs. Ma didn’t come to find Ah Chen again. Perhaps she was scared, or had another plan.

Li Feiwei knew Ma Zihou was sick and had no further interaction with Ah Chen. Being engrossed with interacting and studying with Ah Chen, he didn’t spend much time investigating further.

Time flew by, Zhuo Qiaoqing finally returned with the students who participated in the competition.
