Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead's Counterattack Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead's Counterattack Chapter 282

Ch 282: Daughter of the Republic VS Chinese Opera Singer (11.14)

“Miss Hai Tang is also beautiful like the flowers and the moon. I really don't know which scholarly talent will gain in the future.”[1]

Not to mention, the Male and Female Leads in every world were all giants among men.

On top of a good appearance, they had an awesome identity. It made people rush like ducks.[2]

Nian Xue'er lowered her head and a trace of maliciousness flashed across her face. Damn it! She actually humiliated her!

Just wait, wait for her to return to the Nian family. Marshal Ziju would be hers.

Whatever Nian XunMi was planning, she must make her die.

XunMi didn't take it seriously. She just thought the Female Lead might be too shy, so she turned and threw herself into her mother's arms.

She complained in a lovable and pampered voice: “Mom, you don't even talk to me when I come back. I'm heartbroken.”

Du Shu's hand froze, then she patted her back.

“Mom just didn't expect that you would come back for a while and was a bit surprised. Is everything still going well? Does he bully you? If there's anything, you must come home and tell us.”

Du Shu's eyes were complicated. She looked down next to her at Hai Tang, who looked very similar to her, then she looked at her daughter in her arms.

She didn't understand the feeling in her heart. After all, it was the meat that fell from her body.[3] How can a mother not see the problem.

When there was no comparison, it was unlikely to have any notions, but now…

But XunMi was a child she had raised for more than ten years, and she would always be her own daughter.

“Your dad and big brother were thinking about you yesterday, saying that we haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't you stay for lunch?”

After getting over the shock, Du Shu's expression naturally returned to her original intimacy.

XunMi held Du Shu's arm, and said with a smile, “I originally came back for a free meal.”

“You, ah.” Du Shu helplessly poked XunMi's nose.

“MeiMei, come. Jie will take you to see the hibiscus flowers I planted, ok?”[4] Nian ShuRong saw that both of them had finished talking, so she went forward and pulled XunMi for a walk in the garden.

“Auntie, Mom, no need to look for us, we will come back later.”

She led XunMi left and right until they were behind a rockery, then looked around, seemingly to make sure no one else was around.

XunMi was amused by Nian ShuRong's actions: “Jie, what are you doing, ah? You're acting like a thief.”

“Little girl, if your sister isn't doing this for you, then really no good deed goes unpunished.” Nian Shu Rong put one hand on her hips and pointed the other at XunMi, panting with rage. With her eyes wide open, she looked beautiful.

XunMi hastened to acknowledge her mistake, “My good JieJie, it's MeiMei's fault. MeiMei is wrong. Then JieJie tell me what you are doing.”

Upon hearing this, Nian ShuRong's face showed anger again.

“It's that Hai Tang, she really infuriates me! She actually dares to suggest that she's your parents' daughter. She really thinks I can't see her intentions. She wants to rely on that face to pull out a relationship with Uncle and Auntie, and find a shelter during these troubled times. It's insane not to look into her identity.”

Nian ShuRong really didn't like Hai Tang, “You also know that Jie isn't someone who looks down on opera singers, there's nothing to disparage about actors. But is she really blind to think our Nian family is one she can just casually climb into?”

She had seen all sorts of people at school, and from time to time Hai Tang's eyes showed a scheming appearance. This was something she understood.

XunMi was astonished. In the original work, Nian ShuRong had a pretty good relationship with the Female Lead. After the Female Lead returned home, she also cared for her.

Why did it seem to be completely reversed now?

“That… Jie, did you hear with your own ears Hai Tang suggest that she's my parents' daughter?”

Also, how did the Female Lead know her own history? This should not be, ah.

Nian ShuRong nodded immediately, and said things simply to XunMi, not forgetting to ridicule. “You don't know, but when she stopped me yesterday, I still didn't know what was going on, so I was very kind to her. Who would've thought that as a result, after saying a few words, she said other people said she greatly resembled Auntie so much they might be mother and daughter. So can you imagine, she asked me to find out if Auntie gave birth to two children. Even though she said it tactfully, her meaning was that her looks were definitely inherited, and if not her daughter, she was certainly related. If I weren't so good tempered, I would have already scolded her, and then directly left as I'd already given her enough face. Who would imagine that when DaGe returned last night, he brought up that woman, and furthermore said that Uncle invited her to visit here today as a guest! I was originally going to go out, but when I heard she was coming, I decided not to so I could see what she wanted to do. As a result, you've also seen, when Auntie saw that woman, she was very warm to her.”

After that long-winded speech, Nian ShuRong's expression was finally a little bit better.

It was true that Hai Tang looked a lot like Auntie, but what could it mean?

Anyway, she, Nian ShuRong, didn't like that woman, and even if she was really related to her aunt, she still wouldn't like her.

XunMi really didn't know what to say this time, as it was too unexpected for her.

She couldn't help but contemplate, it seemed that she had noticed some problems many times, but she had always ignored them.

But this time, was it really a coincidence?

“Jie, I believe in my mom and dad. Actually, I was also there yesterday. I wanted to go say hello to you, and then I saw Hai Tang looking for you. I thought you guys had something to talk about, so I didn't disturb you. Then later at FuRong Restaurant, I saw Hai Tang speaking to Dad and DaGe,” she paused, then continued, “Regardless, as long as Mom and Dad are happy, it's fine.”

Seeing Nian ShuRong furrowing her brows in disapproval, XunMi smiled and hugged her arm. “All right, Jie, don't think about it too much. Let's go, go and see the hibiscus you planted.”

Walking along, the two of them were soon talking and laughing.

After eating lunch with the Nian family, XunMi left with ShuiXian and took a trip to the theater.

She casually asked a few people about Hai Tang, and the conclusions she received were no different, just the ordinary things.

In the end, was she thinking too much, or was she thinking too much?

As soon as she reached the entrance of the Marshal's residence, she encountered Mu Cheng.

“Madam, you are finally back. The news came from the laboratory, and the experiment was successful. They want to know if the next phase can be initiated.” Mu Cheng's voice and manner was very excited.

XunMi raised her eyebrow. “Their speed is good. Okay, let's go and see. What about the Marshal?”

“The Marshal already went over there.” Mu Cheng had someone get the car and drive the two of them over.

'Boom Boom!' 'Boom Boom!' If one didn't know, one would think it was explosions from cannons, but XunMi knew that it was just because the technology was backward, so the rumbling from it was a little loud.

After passing through layers of inspections, the car smoothly entered the mountain, and the general situation inside came into view.

A row of simple modern factories were built among the trees, and a space of over 10,000 ping[5] was cleared out around it.

Translator's Notes

[1] I'm not certain I translated this right, but I think XunMi is saying she's so pretty, she'll def marry a talented guy.

Hibiscus mutabilis, or the Confederate Rose.

[2] Like a mob scrambling madly for something unobtainable. Not sure why ducks.

[3] Her own flesh and blood.

[4] This the flower/plant she's talking about.

[5] 10,000 ping is about 8 acres, or 33,000 square meters.
