Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

"Hey you……"

"Lu Chengzhou, why do you have Su Qiaoman's phone?"

Lin Chen spoke before he could, voicing a profound question.

Lu Chengzhou remained silent for a moment.

Are you thinking about how to lie to me?

Having drunk some alcohol, Lin Chen's mind was clearly not quite functioning properly.

All he did was yell, and yell some more.

Lu Chengzhou stroked his chin, pondering how to tell Lin Chen that he had indeed found the phone at his doorstep.

This must have slipped out of Su Qiaoman's pocket by accident when she moved out today.

The screen has a corner that's cracked.

"Forget it, you don't need to go through the trouble of lying anymore."

Lin Chen sat on the flower bed by the roadside, sighing deeply.

Fueled by alcohol, he said something that caught Lu Chengzhou completely off guard.

"If you like this woman, I'll give her to you! Sigh, I'm getting engaged to Jiang Aiyu too, I won't have any freedom anymore..."

050. Brother, I'm suffering inside.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chengzhou was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

Good guy!

How many dishes are there that made Lin Chen so drunk?

If he had eaten just one more peanut, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Can the female lead be given away so easily?

Even if he dared to offer it, Lu Chengzhou wouldn't dare to accept it.

In his opinion, only the male lead could handle a woman as troublesome as the female lead; he wouldn't dare to get involved with her casually.

"No! Absolutely not!"

These words came out of Lu Chengzhou's mouth.

"You absolutely cannot give up Su Qiaoman, and you absolutely cannot marry Jiang Aiyu!"

Lin Chen on the other end of the phone was also taken aback.

"Why can't I marry Jiang Aiyu?" he asked subconsciously.

After asking the question, Lin Chen himself was confused.

The alcohol is really strong.

He couldn't quite remember what he had said just a second ago.

Lu Chengzhou choked for a moment upon hearing Lin Chen's question.

He couldn't very well tell Lin Chen directly that he had read the script and that the script said the two of them weren't a good match, could he?

So, after thinking for a moment, he decided to make up an excuse.

Let's hear a righteous statement!

"Is this kind of arranged marriage something you, Lin Chen, should want?"

"No! This shouldn't be happening!"

"We live in a new era now; we don't follow the old ways of arranged marriages anymore!"

"You must bravely pursue your happiness, you must be yourself, Brother Lin Chen!"

"You are destined to inherit the Lin family business and become the richest man in Yicheng!"

Lin Chen was stunned by these impassioned words.

Lu Chengzhou seems to be genuinely considering his best interests?

This warmed his heart.

After all, since this incident occurred, only Lu Chengzhou has spoken up for him.

Lin Chen felt a lump in his throat.

Good bro.

Only true brothers would consider so much for him.

"Yes, you're right, I shouldn't accept this kind of life..."

Hearing Lin Chen's tearful voice on the other end of the phone, Lu Chengzhou's lips twitched.

what's the situation?

He felt like he had broken the male lead's defenses!

Suddenly, an ominous premonition arose within me.

Lu Chengzhou wanted to quickly change the subject and hang up the phone, but it was too late.

Then, Lin Chen suddenly burst into tears.

"Bro, I'm so miserable! I don't want to be my dad's tool! Why can others pursue happiness, but I have to marry a stern-faced woman who likes to boss me around?! Waaah..."

Lu Chengzhou remained silent.

At times like this, saying anything is probably useless.

Moreover, judging from Lin Chen's tone, he's quite drunk, and he probably won't remember anything when he wakes up tomorrow morning.

After listening quietly to Lin Chen's rant, Lu Chengzhou hung up the phone.

He had gained some understanding of the male protagonist's thoughts.

As long as the male lead doesn't intend to marry Jiang Aiyu, there's still room to salvage the situation.

Tricking the female lead back was only the first step.

The second step is for him, the male supporting character, to step in and repair the relationship between the two of them!

Lu Chengzhou's plan was very well done.

However, he also had a vague sense of foreboding.

Will things really go as smoothly as he thinks?

Currently, it seems that Lin Chen and Su Qiaoman's relationship is not even one-tenth as advanced as it was in the original novel.

……

The evenings are hard to get through.

Lu Chengzhou quickly forgot about Lin Chen and opened the chat software, scrolling up and down.

The recent list is as deserted as ever.

All that remained was Meng Wanyu, and that beautiful young girl, Xu Qian.

The flower girl's profile picture rarely lights up, but Meng Wanyu's is often online.

However, they were both very well-behaved tonight.

As for Xu Qian, she almost never initiates conversations with him.

Of course, Lu Chengzhou wouldn't take the initiative to go to them.

As a supporting male character, the most important thing is to always be mindful of minimizing your presence!

Is flirting with other women something a male supporting character should do?

Of course, if the flowers and plants actively attract him, that's a different story...

He closed the chat app and opened the job search app to see if there were any new job opportunities.

After browsing around for a bit, he actually found one.

"Cooking instructor, in-home service, 100 per hour?"

This wage, of course, cannot compare to what Meng Wanyu offered.

However, something is better than nothing.

Most importantly, the other party's address happens to be in the same neighborhood where he currently lives.

Very close!

This is Lu Chengzhou's favorite.

He was never a diligent person; he was the kind of person who would never slack off even a little bit.

So he immediately sent the job application to them.

To Lu Chengzhou's surprise, the other party responded to him very quickly.

Lu Chengzhou glanced at the time.

It's already past 3 a.m.

Does this employer not need to sleep?

"If you're free now, you can come over right now," the employer said. "I'll pay you double for working overtime tonight."

Lu Chengzhou: "..."

Who can refuse double pay?

So he quickly got dressed, changed his shoes, and prepared to head to his work post.

I just got to the door and opened it.

His neighbor across the hall opened his door at the same time.

Look at their perfect teamwork!
