Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21: 019 Accept?

After leaving the Fang Family, Qiu Yiming's face became completely gloomy. He had not stayed at the Fang Family for too long, ever since he saw Bai Qianqian and found out about her relationship with Fang Yuxin, he became so agitated he almost lost control of himself. Fearing that he might do something drastic, he had to hastily take his leave.

The cool night breeze that blew against him did nothing to soothe his irritability; instead, it spurred a bloodthirsty impulse within him. A black car slowly drove up and stopped beside Qiu Yiming. He pulled the door open and climbed into the back seat. As soon as he settled in, he irritably tore open his buttons and asked with a sullen face, "What about it? Have you found them?"

The driver was his confidant. On hearing the question, he shook his head, "They're very cautious. We checked that road segment and didn't find them."

"A bunch of trash!" Qiu Yiming cursed under his breath and roughly twisted open a bottle of mineral water to take a sip before ordering, "Let's head back for now."

The driver responded and, without further conversation, turned and drove out of the villa district seriously. Just as they exited the gates of the villa district, Qiu Yiming suddenly saw someone. With a thought, he told the driver to drive over.

Fang Mengyao stood alone by the roadside, without even a car in sight. She was slim and clad in a long white dress, its hem fluttered in the night breeze like a tentative butterfly taking flight, beautiful yet fragile.

She was startled to see the black car approaching, but before it got near, she already received a prompt from the gaming system —— [Ding! Side quest: Meet Major Qiu Yiming, do you accept?]

Fang Mengyao watched the approaching black car and silently chose [Yes]. She knew Qiu Yiming was Fang Yuxin's fiancé and the person the original owner of her body had been secretly in love with. If it had not been for Qiu Yiming rejecting the original owner's confession, which led her to take her own life in a fit of despair, she would not have transmigrated into this body. Hence, she had long wanted to see for herself what kind of person Qiu Yiming was. With this opportunity presenting itself, naturally, she could not miss it.

The black car stopped in front of Fang Mengyao. The car door did not open; instead, the window slowly rolled down. Qiu Yiming turned his face to look at her with a concerned tone, he asked, "Xiao Yao? Why are you here by yourself so late at night?"

Fang Mengyao looked at him, and her whole being shuddered vehemently. Her heart seemed to tear open, letting an endless tide of bitterness and reluctance pour out. Fang Mengyao's eyes instantly reddened, and tears brimmed over.

Qiu Yiming was taken aback. He too was surprised to see Fang Mengyao and had only come over to see if he could get any information from her, but looking at Fang Mengyao like this... he suddenly remembered the shy and nervous confession she had made some time ago.

At the time, Fang Mengyao had sneaked up to him, saying that she liked him and was willing to be his mistresses secretly, but he did not agree and rejected her straight away. Although Fang Mengyao was a beautiful girl, she paled in comparison to Fang Yuxin, and he certainly did not want to upset Fang Yuxin and the Fang Family over a woman.

They had not seen each other since then, and now suddenly encountering Fang Mengyao, he noticed something different about her. It wasn't just her clothes; even her temperament had changed. The previous Fang Mengyao had a bit of a reserved, docile nature, and even during her confession, she had her head down, only daring to steal glances at him.
