Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Mr. Yao was stunned as he watched the two being so affectionate.

Yao Feiran pulled her father over: "My dad often talks about you. You two used to fight side by side."

Yao's father looked embarrassed: "What do you mean by fighting side by side? We only won because of His Excellency the Duke's leadership."

When Xie Zhenghan heard him mention His Excellency the Duke, his face turned cold: "Indeed, I've always seen you like to hide in the back, timid and hesitant."

"What do you mean by being timid and cowardly? I earned my military merits through battle." Yao's father was somewhat indignant when he heard the other party belittle him.

Seeing them undermining each other, Yao Feiran took her mother's arm and went to eat somewhere else: "Where are my older brother and sister?"

"They're at Grandma's, so they won't come. Even if they did, they'd be giving these people face. If it weren't for you, your father and I wouldn't have come either." Yao's mother looked displeased. "By the way, I arrived late earlier, and a group of people rushed in with the Empress. What happened?"

"They wanted to team up to catch me and the Second Prince cheating on each other, and they even gave me a drug that affected my mental strength, but it didn't have much of an effect on me."

"What?! They're so despicable!"

"Yes, I said I wouldn't get a divorce, but it turns out he was waiting until my reputation was ruined before divorcing me. But didn't he refuse to marry Xie Yufei?"

"I don't know either." Yao's mother sighed with a gloomy face, "Actually, there's another reason. We didn't know it before, but we found out later that the core of Lu Chenyao's mecha, White Night's Ark, was given to him by your maternal grandmother."

"What? I've never heard you guys mention this before."

The core is the hearth of the mech, where the energy stones are stored, and it's crucial to the mech's overall combat effectiveness. My grandmother's core even had a special name, which shows how important it was.

"Back then, everyone was choosing a consort for Lu Chenyao. Your grandmother gave him this thing without saying a word, and then you were chosen. I guess besides considering all factors, there was also that Ark Furnace Core. They signed an agreement with the association that if they married you, they would give you the furnace core. If you divorced one day, the furnace core would have to be returned. Of course, the royal family put forward another condition: if you were the one at fault in the divorce, you could not get the furnace core back."

"So that's how it is."

Yao Feiran felt a pang of heartache. That thing was so important; giving it to Lu Chenyao was worse than feeding it to a dog. She was determined to get it back later.

Yao's father and Xie Zhenghan's expressions had improved considerably, presumably because their earlier bickering had ended and they were now reminiscing about their glorious past.

Yao Feiran looked at him for a while and felt that Xie Zhenghan's skin was a little too pale, and he seemed more tired than before.

Recalling what the royal family had done today, Yao Feiran threw over a calculation, discovering that Xie Zhenghan's luck had greatly diminished in a short period of time, ultimately leading to his death.

Her expression changed.

So that's how it is. No wonder they were so eager to kick him out. Xie Zhenghan is about to die. Even if Xie Yufei marries in, she'll be at their mercy and will still get all of Xie Zhenghan's inheritance.

"Uncle Xie, have you been feeling unwell lately?"

Xie Zhenghan chuckled: "You can even treat illnesses?"

"Having studied some ancient medicine, you seem a bit listless, quite different from when we first met."

"I've been having some sleep problems lately, probably because I just finished a big battle and I'm a bit exhausted."

Xie Zhenghan didn't care much, and Yao Feiran didn't say much at the banquet either.

The two brothers reconciled as before, and Yao Feiran did not actively cling to Lu Chenyao. After leaving, the Empress stood in front of her.

"Feiran, I hope you won't spread what happened today. It won't do you or Shen Yao any good."

"You guys are shameless, using such methods to try and stop me from spreading this." Yao Feiran said directly, "If you want to keep it from spreading, give me another 1 billion points."

Mr. and Mrs. Yao: "...!?"

The Empress's face twisted in pain: "Fine, I hope you keep your promise and give me the video recording from before."

"Cash on delivery"

Back home, Yao's father said, "How did you get so obsessed with money? Be careful, or you might do something rash. If you need money, Dad will give it to you."

"I want to build a mecha that surpasses 3S, Dad, can you make it for me?"

Just as Yao's father was about to transfer the money, he heard this and quickly withdrew his hand.

"Ten billion is too little. Ask for more next time. If you're scared, just call Uncle Xie over."

The Yao family is not short of money, but to make a mecha that surpasses 3S would bankrupt them.

"......"

The next day, Yao Feiran visited the Xie family and saw Xie Yufei, who had a hot figure but sharp eyes and was staring intently at Yao Feiran.

"You are Yao Feiran. If it weren't for you, I would be the one who married Lu Chenyao."

"Lu Chenyao is no good either. Why would you marry a perfectly good 2S mecha pilot?"

Xie Yufei was stunned for a moment after hearing this for the first time before saying, "I like strong people, I hope to have a complete family, and I like children. Children born to people with strong mental strength will have good genes."

Her mother died early, and her father was often away from home, which left her with some personality flaws. She had always envied children who had their parents with them, and she projected this envy onto her future children.

Yao Feiran was also somewhat surprised. Xie Yufei had a fiery temper and liked to slap people, earning her the nickname "Female Rakshasa." Yet, her wish was to marry a man and start a family.

"There are quite a few men with a mental strength of 3S. Although they may not be able to pilot a 3S mecha, if you raise your future child well, his achievements will not be low. Moreover, Lu Chenyao is too ruthless to women he doesn't like. He is hypocritical and will kick you away after he has used you. It's not worth it."

"Is that so?" Xie Yufei's eyes flashed with confusion. "But I don't dislike what you say."

"Nonsense, what are you saying to Fei Ran?"

Xie Zhenghan walked out of the study, black smoke floating on his forehead.

"Feiran, don't take what she said to heart."

Yao Feiran smiled and said, "Sister Yufei is doing well. Uncle Xie, I have something to tell you."

"it is good."

Yao Feiran walked over and found Xie Zhenghan rubbing his temples: "My daughter is quite willful. She threw a tantrum because she couldn't marry Lu Chenyao. I don't think she likes Lu Chenyao. She just thinks he has a strong gene."

"People like Sister Yufei, who are straightforward, are easier to get along with."

"I do hope she can be more emotionally intelligent. Lu Chenyao is too cunning. I underestimated him before, otherwise I wouldn't have let you step into the fire pit."

Yao Feiran looked at his face and said, "Uncle Xie, you have a health problem."

"Don't worry, I had a thorough check-up with the doctor before, I'm just tired lately."

"It's not just that you're tired, your mental strength is also damaged. Someone must have attacked you behind your back, Uncle Xie. Trust me, have the Yao family's private doctor give you a thorough check-up, otherwise you won't live more than two months."

Xie Zhenghan's gaze sharpened: "Are you serious?"

He didn't believe Yao Feiran would curse him.

"Uncle Xie, I have no reason to lie. You should believe me this time."
