CHAPTER 861: CHAPTER 338: SCREW YOUR TRAGIC BEAUTY (PART 8)

Female lead?

What is this?

Ms. Hetian’s mind was full of question marks.

Soon, she suddenly thought, just now, when Qiu Zhaodi was muttering to herself, she mentioned "the tragic villain with beauty and strength."

Through Qiu Zhaodi’s rambling, Ms. Hetian had a guess, the "you" she referred to should be He Xiaobao.

So, He Xiaobao is a villain in a book.

And so, the world they live in is not really a real world, but a book?

Absurd!

It’s utterly absurd!

They are clearly living people, how could they be characters in a book?

Normally, Ms. Hetian shouldn’t be literate, nor has she read storybooks.

But she suddenly understood these things and also comprehended what the characters in the book meant.

And the obviously strange words like female lead, villain, tragic beauty, all these, Ms. Hetian understood them as well.

Ms. Hetian:...

Forget it, these are not important.

What’s important is that the world they live in is a book, and her Xiaobao seems to be quite an important character.

Just not very glorious, and possibly without a good ending.

But, what does this have to do with Qiu Zhaodi?

What is her background?

Why does she know so much inside information?

And, why is she always secretly spying and pointing at He Xiaobao, with what purpose?!

Ms. Hetian’s mind was flooded with various questions again.

Soon, Qiu Zhaodi herself provided the answer—

"I, like the female lead Han Dongdong, am a neighbor of He Keji."

"Han Dongdong formed a good relationship with He Keji over a pancake, and in the future, received much protection from this wheelchair boss!"

"In the end, He Keji even died to save Han Dongdong..."

"Han Dongdong doesn’t lack such a devoted supporting male character, without He Keji, she still has several loyal followers like the General’s only son, the Hu Clan Prince, etc."

"...So, let this opportunity be mine. I’m not greedy, as long as He Keji, when successful in the future, can repay me properly!"

"Mm, my demands are not high, just let me marry a noble or a noble family, at worst, I’ll be content to become the richest woman under Boss He’s protection!"

Qiu Zhaodi, looking at the only six-year-old He Xiaobao, had eyes filled with brilliance, indulging in her dreams and visions.

Ms. Hetian, however, felt a bit angry listening!

She didn’t delve deep into the various details mentioned by Qiu Zhaodi, He Keji, should be their Xiaobao’s proper name.

Yes, Xiaobao is just a pet name.

Originally, He Erniu planned to, when his son was able to study, send him to a private school and have the teacher there help give him a proper name.

In the end, as everyone knows, He Erniu didn’t even wait until his son studied before something happened.

Wait!

In Qiu Zhaodi’s pile of words just now, she mentioned "biological father."

Which means, He Erniu should not be dead, maybe even became successful. That’s why there’s a chance for "partiality"!

Ms. Hetian secretly gritted her teeth, but soon, she let go of her resentment towards He Erniu.

Alas, she really was too lousy in the past, truly not having much standing to accuse He Erniu of anything.

Even if He Erniu became successful, remarried, and had many children, Ms. Hetian owed He Erniu a debt of karma!

However, these can all be set aside, what really angered Ms. Hetian was—Qiu Zhaodi knew the "plot," and understood what He Xiaobao would face, yet she didn’t think about saving He Xiaobao, but intended to replace the female lead, to give him a pancake when he was about to be sold!

Yes, Qiu Zhaodi is still young, she may not be able to help He Xiaobao much.

But she could have gone to Ms. Hetian and said something.

Even if Ms. Hetian is quite unconventional, if she knew the so-called noble person was actually a man-eating demon, she wouldn’t easily agree to sell He Xiaobao.

Even if she really had to sell, she would choose a more reliable person in the human market.

Of course, there’s another possibility, that is, if Qiu Zhaodi had said it, Ms. Hetian might not have believed her!

In that case, she still wouldn’t be able to change He Xiaobao’s fate.

But, what made Ms. Hetian most angry about Qiu Zhaodi was, from the beginning to the end, Qiu Zhaodi never thought of helping He Xiaobao avoid this ordeal.

Don’t even talk about actions, she didn’t even have the slightest intention.

Ms. Hetian wasn’t intentionally trying to morally bind anyone, but Qiu Zhaodi intended to be He Xiaobao’s lifesaver, to enjoy He Xiaobao’s gratitude, yet didn’t want to truly help him, which wasn’t quite benevolent.

Qiu Zhaodi shouldn’t say something like "The female lead did the same, she became the benefactor He Xiaobao was willing to protect with his life with just a pancake, why can’t I?"
