Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Supporting Female Lead Couldn’t Care Less - Chapter 215

Except for the little incident that morning, Yu Hui and Yu Guang ended up having a quite smooth trip.

Nowadays, there were very few salesmen who would flatter the high and trample the low in car dealerships. When Yu Guang and Yu Hui came, the receptionist at the door immediately came to greet them.

After confirming that they hadn’t contacted a salesman in advance, the receptionist took the two of them to a hall so they could rest. The receptionist also gave them two cups of warm water and some snacks.

They weren’t treated differently simply because they came on an electric bike.

However, the receptionist’s enthusiastic treatment of them actually made Yu Hui a little fidgety. The receptionist’s enthusiasm made him feel like the receptionist had sharpened a knife and was only waiting for the right moment to slit his throat.

Yu Guang looked at Yu Hui and smiled. She handed him a stack of information books and said, “Brother, you can pick any car you like.”

Yu Guang hadn’t bothered with hiding her appearance, so many of the salesmen were discreetly casting glances at them.

If it were in the past, everyone might wonder who she was.

Now, though, after all the ‘you didn’t try hard enough’ jokes, anyone who didn’t know who Yu Guang was must be living under a rock.

Fortunately, the salesmen succeeded in maintaining their professionalism and didn’t swarm Yu Guang.

Besides, when Yu Guang glanced at them and smiled, their bodies would instantly freeze out of reflex.

They feared that Yu Guang would suddenly say to them, ‘You’re not working hard enough!’ or something along that line.

Yu Guang had been very popular on the internet recently. Although news about the sky-high compensation that she had to pay had spread, Yu Guang’s appearance in the two recently viral minigames made people believe that Yu Guang must have a lot of money right now.

No one doubted Yu Guang’s ability to afford a car. Anyhow, a lean camel would still be bigger than a horse.

What they were curious about was Yu Guang’s relationship with the guy sitting next to her.

Under everyone else’s curious gazes, the saleslady squatted next to Yu Guang and Yu Hui’s coffee table. She gave them a smile and asked, “Excuse me. Do you already have any car models that you like?”

While looking at the saleslady’s collar, Yu Hui quietly moved closer to Yu Guang. “Sister, this car is too expensive. Let’s look at another dealership.”

Although he wanted to buy a car, that didn’t mean he wanted such an expensive car.

He just wanted a car that he could use to get around.

Noticing that Yu Hui was chickening out again, Yu Guang smiled at the saleslady and said, “Which cars are available for immediate pickup?”

The salesperson flipped through the brochure. “These models are all in stock. However, if you want other colours, you would have to wait at least three days to pick it up.”

Yu Guang’s eyes swept through the cars’ pictures one by one. She then asked, “Which one has the best configuration?”

Hearing the words ‘best configuration’ made Yu Hui start to sweat again. Wasn’t she just baiting to be scammed?

He had heard that cars with the best configurations were just flashy and had impractical features. Apparently, only fools would buy them.

Yu Hui started pulling at Yu Guang’s sleeve again and started giving her meaningful looks. He said, “Let’s check the ones next door.”

Seeing this, the saleslady had a feeling that this transaction might fall through, so she quickly pointed to a display car in the showroom. “This one is in stock and can be driven away today.”

Whether or not to buy was a quick decision.

Seeing the price of the car, which was over 5 million, Yu Hui’s face turned red instantly. How could he afford this?

While he was still debating, Yu Guang made a decisive decision. She said, “Fill up the tank, handle the paperwork, and get a temporary licence plate. I’ll take it today.”

It wouldn’t be right to discuss business without a good car, and Yu Guang was never one to shortchange herself.

The salesperson was surprised by how quickly Yu Guang agreed. “Do you have any other requirements? We will provide the service.”

Yu Guang’s gaze fell on Yu Hui. “Are there any additional features you want, or a different colour?”

Yu Hui was so embarrassed his neck turned red, and it took him a while to stammer out, “Do you sell driving licences?”

Third Uncle had said that they could just buy one instead of taking the test. Since they were spending so much money here, maybe they could provide them a special channel as well.

The salesperson responded with a gentle smile. If this person weren’t her big client, she would have already called the police on him.

Meanwhile, Tong Manman was sitting dejectedly on the swing in her garden. As soon as Tong Hongxin came home, he saw his sister’s pitiful state and immediately walked over to sit beside her. He gently patted her head and asked, “Princess, are you still upset over that irrelevant person?”

Tong Manman’s voice was very low. “Brother, I genuinely want to exchange places with Yu Guang. All my happiness right now feels like it’s stolen from her.”

Tong Hongxin sat down beside Tong Manman. He wrapped his arm around her shoulders to let her lean on him. “Don’t say that. We’ve watched you grow up; you’re our family. Blood ties alone can’t replace that.”

A tear slipped from the corner of Tong Manman’s eyes. She said, “Brother, I really don’t want to leave you, but Yu Guang is too pitiful. I have to compensate her, somehow.”

Hearing Tong Manman call Yu Guang pitiful, a trace of disgust crossed Tong Hongxin’s eyes. “What’s pitiful about her? Everything she did is entirely her own fault.”

The events of that night were entirely Yu Guang’s own doing. 

If she hadn’t willingly attended that dinner party, those people wouldn’t have had a chance to take advantage of her. 

Since it was Yu Guang’s own fault, why should he step in to save her?

Speaking of self-inflicted trouble, Tong Manman thought of another important matter. She asked, “Brother, what about the 50 million?”

She swore that when she said she would donate the money, she only intended to help Yu Guang and never imagined Yu Guang would set her up.

Hearing this, Tong Hongxin’s brow furrowed again. “Don’t worry. I’ve handled it.”

This was the first time he had seen a woman as malicious as Yu Guang, calculating and forcing Manman to publicly promise a donation of more than 50 million. Countless eyes were now focused on Manman because of this.

Manman’s issues were also Tong’s family’s issues. If Manman lost face, the Tong family would also lose face.

Although 50 million was not a huge amount for the Tong family, most of their assets were tied up in their properties, so spending 50 million in cash was still quite painful. 

Fortunately, Tong Hongxin had a solution: he bought supplies to donate to the disaster areas. Although it was still fifty million on paper, it actually cost just over thirty million. That way, he managed to save them a significant amount.

In any case, Tong Hongxin had developed a deep disdain for Yu Guang’s troublemaking.

After receiving confirmation, Tong Manman hugged Tong Hongxin’s waist and said, “Brother, you’re so nice to me.”

Tong Hongxin affectionately stroked Tong Manman’s long hair. “You know I’m good, yet you can’t wait to leave me and live with someone else.”

Tong Manman’s hands trembled slightly as she held onto Tong Hongxin. It was precisely because he was so good that she wanted to return to her roots. How could he not understand?

Yu Hui, sitting in the passenger seat, was nervously scanning the surroundings, afraid of anyone scratching his new car.

For the first time in her life, Yu Guang was rendered speechless. Ever since they got in the car, Yu Hui had become very agitated. Not only was he scanning the area like a radar, but he was also shouting and scolding everyone who came close. He didn’t miss even a single person…
