Chapter 77 You're a Transmigrator Too?
"What do you think?" Shen Yan asked instead of answering. "What do you think I would make Xingzhi listen to?"

Qin Song instantly understood, and anger flashed in his eyes.

"Shen Yanhui, don't you think it's going too far to use divorce to threaten Pei Xingzhi's investment?"

"How did I go too far?" Clearly, Shen Yan Hui didn't think so. On the contrary, she was quite proud.

"You're such a vicious supporting character, you're never a good match for Xingzhi. You can't give him anything he needs, yet you keep giving him the things he hates. A woman like you shouldn't even be by Xingzhi's side!"

"I made Xingzhi divorce you entirely for his own good! Only if you leave can Xingzhi get better."

"Hmph." Qin Song laughed.

Shen Yan ignored her sneer and continued, "Because of you, Xingzhi can't attract investment or build connections. Because of you, Xingzhi is ridiculed wherever he goes. Just yesterday, Xingzhi came to Shen's Group to participate in the election, and all his competitors and leaders openly and secretly mocked him. They said he married a good wife, but even when she's pregnant, she's still having affairs! They also said he's really lucky, becoming a father without lifting a finger."

"Qin Song, Qin Song, you have brought such great shame to Xingzhi, how dare you say I went too far? You are the one who went too far."

"You shamelessly occupy a position that doesn't belong to you. You know you're already rotten and stinking, yet you still cling to Xingzhi's side, preventing him from going to someone better than you! Qin Song, how can you be so vicious? It's one thing for you to be rotten, but why do you have to drag Xingzhi down with you? You just watch such a good person be dragged down by you, how can you be so heartless!"

Shen Yanhui seemed to feel particularly sorry for Pei Xingzhi, and every word she said to Qin Song was disguised as being for Pei Xingzhi's "good".

But Qin Song knew perfectly well that Shen Yan Hui's indignation and hatred were all for her own sake, for her "mission."

"Heh..." Qin Song chuckled helplessly, "Shen Yanhui, you're so righteous."

Shen Yan rolled her eyes at her: "What? You can't win an argument with me, so you're resorting to sarcasm?"

Qin Song ignored her words and asked, "Shen Yanhui, you always think of Pei Xingzhi and feel sorry for him. Is it because you really like and admire him, or is it for some other reason?"

"I..." Shen Yanhui choked for a moment, and her voice was clearly not as strong as before.

"Of course it's because I like him! Qin Song, I'm the only daughter of the Shen Group. I'm rich and powerful and I lack nothing. What could I possibly want from Xingzhi? If you insist that I have ulterior motives, then the only thing I'm after is Xingzhi himself."

"Oh." Qin Song nodded, seemingly believing her.

"Since you really like Pei Xingzhi, did you consider his feelings when you threatened him and secretly cursed me behind his back?"

Shen Yan turned her face slightly away, her eyes darting around: "Xingzhi is completely infatuated with you right now, how could I possibly have a plan to consider his feelings? I only did this out of necessity!"

“I believe you had no choice.” Qin Song raised the corner of his eye and looked at Shen Yanhui with a deeper meaning in his eyes. “But your reason for having no choice is not for Pei Xingzhi’s future or happiness, but for yourself.”

"For your own 'mission,' for your shady purposes."

Now that things had come to this, Qin Song was no longer willing to play along. She directly exposed Shen Yanhui's pretense, tearing away that veneer of mystery completely.

"..."

"Clap!"

Shen Yanhui suddenly dropped the spoon she was holding between her fingers back into the ceramic cup. Because the cup was too full, some of the fragrant coffee spilled out the moment the spoon fell. A few drops landed on the cuff of her expensive shirt, instantly staining the off-white collar. The brown stain clung stubbornly to it, becoming intractable in just a few seconds.

"...What do you mean?" She stared at Qin Song with wide eyes, her pale face still showing despite the thick layer of foundation she wore.

Qin Song smiled slightly: "The meaning you understand."

"..."

Shen Yan was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly raised her hands and slammed them hard on the table in front of her.

With a loud "bang," everyone in the coffee shop was startled. Dozens of eyes turned to look at the window, and even the waiter moved closer, seemingly uneasy.

"How did you know?" Shen Yan's eyes instantly turned to terror, and her voice trembled noticeably.

"That's not important." Qin Song didn't intend to tell her that he was also a time traveler. She pulled a tissue from the table and wiped away the two drops of coffee that had splashed on the back of her hand.

“Shen Yanhui, I don’t care what your mission is, or what the punishment will be if you fail to complete it. I just want to tell you that Pei Xingzhi is a person, a living, breathing person. He is not a piece of paper, nor is he a few lines of simple text.”

"You can do the task, but please respect him and treat him as a person."

"I've already respected him enough!" The truth was out, and Shen Yan Hui no longer needed to hide anything. She clenched her fists, pressing them urgently and anxiously against the edge of the table, gritting her teeth as she said, "Do you think I wanted to do this? I only resorted to this because I was desperate! If you hadn't been clinging to Pei Xingzhi's side, why would I have threatened or forced him!"

"In the end, it's all your fault!"

"Oh." Qin Song responded to her indifferently, "Blame me if you will. Pei Xingzhi is the husband I've chosen, and I will never leave him."

"You must leave!" Shen Yan Hui was on the verge of losing control. She glared at Qin Song, her beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with several ferocious red blood vessels.

"If you don't leave me, I'll die! I'll die if I don't finish this!"

Qin Song: "I understand you, but I won't sacrifice myself for you. People are selfish creatures. You're driving me away for your own sake, and I'm staying for my own sake as well."

"Everyone only has one life, and everyone wants to live well. No one is born to give way to anyone else. Pei Xingzhi should not be used as a tool for you to complete your mission."

"...Who are you?" Shen Yanhui's last breath dissipated helplessly at Qin Song's words.

Although she wasn't particularly clever, she vaguely sensed that something was wrong with Qin Song.

"You're a time traveler too? You're also doing missions? Right?"

"No." Qin Song placed the tissue on the table and stood up from his chair under Shen Yanhui's bewildered gaze.

“I’m just an ordinary person. I just want to stay by Pei Xingzhi’s side. Shen Yanhui, don’t even think about taking him away from me.”

"Pei Xingzhi is mine."
