I Refuse to be a Supporting Character Chapter 63

Chapter 63 – Hero Saves the Beauty (1)

Once Cheng Xin heard Jing Hao’s voice, she felt as if she had found a pillar of support . She looked for his figure and cried out to him, “Hao!”

Big tear drops dripped down from her doe eyes .

In an instant, Jing Hao’s cold heart felt as if pricked by a needle .

He had never seen Cheng Xin weep so bitterly, like a helpless abandoned beast .

He knew Cheng Xin as a simple and lively girl, as warm as a little sun . In the year that they’ve known each other, they would occasionally quarrel for various reasons .

Recently, Jing Hao had deliberately given her the cold shoulder these past two days . At times, Cheng Xin would bow her head first, and other times, Jing Hao would admit his mistake . After every trouble, their feelings as a couple would become more profound; they regarded their quarrels as something that would deepen their feelings .

When Jing Hao met Cheng Xin, he finally tasted what love and affection truly was . She was different from all of the women he had relationships with before; she was so full of vitality and affection for him .

This was the reason why, despite getting a headache from Cheng Xin’s arrogance, pettiness, or quick temper, Jing Hao couldn’t bare to let her go .

However, there were still many stumbling blocks that they needed to overcome . Cheng Xin’s temperament was too simple, which is why Jing Hao still hadn’t disclosed their relationship to the world, or bring her home .

At this moment, he had the urge to hold her in his arms to comfort her, but he knew that couldn’t afford to do it in front of this crowd . Jing Hao could only hold his impulse .

He asked Cheng Xin what happened to her, but she simply cried without uttering a word .

Jing Hao helplessly appeased her with a few words, then turned around and saw a man and woman standing opposite from Cheng Xin .

The man had an elegant temperament, like a demon . Jing Hao had never seen this person in the business circle he associated with .

He felt slightly displeased . This banquet was held to reintroduce Jing Ruo to the imperial elites after being abroad for so many years, but not all visitors who came were invited .

But since this unwelcome guest was already in the venue, the Jing family couldn’t do anything to drive him out .

Jing Hao’s disdainful gaze turned to the woman beside the unwelcome guest .

The lady wore a long, wine-red dress and had a coldness about her beauty . Jing Hao’s eyes flashed with amazement, but it was only a momentary appreciation for the beauty of a woman .

On a closer look, he found her a little familiar . Isn’t this Cheng Xin’s younger sister, Gu Jin?

The last time Jing Hao saw her was several months ago when they went to school together . They had no contact with each other until Cheng Xin brought them both along . Upon seeing her again today, Jing Hao took a while to actually recognize her .

Her appearance hadn’t changed much, but her temperament had undergone drastic changes . From the past two meals he spent with Cheng Xin and this girl, he never found anything impressive about Gu Jin .

He only remembered her as a cousin and good friend of Cheng Xin’s who had a quiet and elegant temperament . She was the typical girl who stayed obediently at home .

Now, however, her smile was enough to attract any man’s attention .

Moreover, she was standing by a man he didn’t recognize, and the atmosphere between that couple seemed intimate .

However, Cheng Xin once told him that she succeeded in bringing Gu Jin and Shao Chong together in a relationship .

That was why he had reluctantly agreed with Cheng Xin’s occasional contact with Shao Chong .

At this thought, Jing Hao felt a slight disdain towards Gu Jin .

A woman like her who dared to pedal two boats shouldn’t associate with Cheng Xin, lest she spoil his lovely girlfriend .
