Quick Transmigration: The Female Supporting Role Live for Themselves

Chapter 196: Ghost in the Magic World - Relationship Troubles

Bing Hong Xiang was silent after hearing Shang Xiyue’s answer.

He knew rationally that what Shang Xiyue said was definitely correct. But he couldn’t accept it after suffering such a loss.

Someone had to take the blame.

And the unconscious Shang Su was definitely the best scapegoat in Bing Hong Xiang’s eyes. He was the first one to find that black shadow and also the one who was heavily injured but not dead.

As for the other two members who were implicated?

The two of them didn’t care about these two people and only had to let their family deal with their family members.

Because their family members definitely can’t accept losing their children so easily.

"That just meant you’re useless." Bing Hong Xiang snorted and then walked away in anger. He knew very well that his father will definitely start to question him about that black shadow even further.

Just thinking about it made Bing Hong Xiang even more irritable.

Why does those black shadow had to appear around him and not others? Not to mention, they couldn’t deal with it in the slightest bit.

It was frustrating.

Shang Xiyue watched Bing Hong Xiang’s back as he left with a cold gaze.

She knew very well that the two of them were frustrated and he was taking out his anger on her, but she couldn’t accept it either. Why does she had to be the one taking the blame when none of them knew the origin of that black shadow?

Turning around angrily, Shang Xiyue went back to the Shang Family Residence.

The other students were still in the hall as the teacher planned to check on them, including Shang Kui.

Many elder, including the Shang Family Head, was being called by the Governor to discuss the matter related to that black shadow.

It was said that the Head Teacher was also scolded.

Because while he had sensed that something would happen, he didn’t make enough preparation.

In this way, the Shang Family was relatively empty.

"Shang Xiyue." Shang Xiyue’s father was there, looking very tired.

"Father." Shang Xiyue frowned. Did her father not being called out to clean up the mess that Bing Hong Xiang and Shang Xiyue made?

Why is he here?

But while Shang Xiyue was confused, she still came towards her father and looked like an obedient girl in front of her.

Only the two of them knew that this was nothing more than an act.

"This matter is bigger than expected." Shang Xiyue’s father looked at his daughter carefully and then asked, "What did you and Shang Su doing when the black shadow first appeared?"

Because his daughter was in danger and Shang Xiyue’s father wanted to rely on his daughter to change his status in the Shang Family, he also rushed over. In this way, Shang Xiyue’s father also tried to use the Shang Family’s ability on the black shadow and experienced the same backlash.

It was terrifying.

Since he’s not as strong as his brother, Shang Xiyue’s father nearly fainted and had to use all of his willpower like Shang Xiyue.

The black shadow was simply too terrifying.

"I don’t know, Father. When Shang Su met with the black shadow, both me and Bing Hong Xiang are sleeping, so we have no idea what he was doing," Shang Xiyue replied honestly.

They have five people in their team, so it was obvious that Shang Xiyue would make use of these people to the fullest.

She would rest when there was a chance.

Otherwise, she would be too tired and couldn’t face the other magic beasts.

"Don’t go far away in the next period of time." Shang Xiyue’s father warned.

To be honest, Shang Xiyue’s father was worried that the black shadow as actually chasing after Shang Xiyue instead of Bing Hong Xiang.

Because the two children were together and people were used to pay more attention to Bing Hong Xiang that they completely forgot about Shang Xiyue. But Shang Xiyue’s father knew that once they calmed down, some people might start to think this way.

Shang Xiyue’s father couldn’t possibly let it happen.

It’s better to pin all the blame on Bing Hong Xiang.

The Bing Family was stronger and they would never let anything happen to Bing Hong Xiang.

But if something were to happen to Shang Xiyue, then the prestige that she had built over the years would be for nothing. Shang Xiyue’s father still needed more time to consolidate his power over the Shang Family.

So he needed Shang Xiyue to be better in terms of reputation.

At least, make a good use of her good relationship with Bing Hong Xiang to boost her own reputation and so on.

"I know, Father." Shang Xiyue was calm.

Her father had been planning for years and had to select between her and her brother to conduct his plan.

Since Shang Su was too simple minded, it was Shang Xiyue who was selected.

And Shang Xiyue knew that if she failed, then her father wouldn’t hesitate to use her brother instead.

Her fingers clenched to form a fist and her nail dug into her flesh.

She couldn’t let that happen.

So no matter what...

Bing Hong Xiang had to take the blame.

"Good." Shang Xiyue’s father smiled and then went away, leaving Shang Xiyue standing with a cold expression.

If Bing Hong Xiang were to be here, he would not believe that this was the same Shang Xiyue who used to smile sweetly in his direction.

...

For Xiang Kui, the incident didn’t have much effect on her.

This was mainly because she had ensured that the ghost would only chase after Bing Hong Xiang and Shang Xiyue instead of her.

In this way, no one would ever know that the ghost’s original target was actually Shang Kui instead of Shang Xiyue.

And right now...

She was troubled with another matter.

Is she also here to solve Shang Kui’s relationship trouble too?

The memory before she transmigrated was still incomplete thanks to a certain annoying system.
