Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6: 004 Snatch

Fang Yuxin entered the living room, and both Fang Mengyao and Qu Qianhe were surprised to see her. Fang Mengyao's expression was a bit strange, while Qu Qianhe asked, "Xinxin, why did you cut your hair?"

Fang Yuxin walked over and sat down beside Qu Qianhe, smiling and saying, "I wanted a change of style, so I cut it. Mom, do you think I look good like this?"

Qu Qianhe nodded, proudly saying, "My daughter is beautiful; even if she were bald, she would still look good. You do look more spirited like this than before, not bad!"

Fang Yuxin kept observing Fang Mengyao out of the corner of her eye. Fang Mengyao was sitting opposite them, and at this point, her face changed slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved up, as if she was sneering. Fang Yuxin then asked her, "Yaoyao, how come you have time to visit today?"

Fang Mengyao's face stiffened, then she raised her head with a somewhat provocative tone, asking, "What do you mean by that, Sister Xin? Are you saying I shouldn't come?" Her reason for coming this time was to see with her own eyes what sort of people Qu Qianhe and Fang Yuxin were, and incidentally to ask her nominal father, Fang Jintang, for money. The apocalypse was about to arrive, and she needed to start stocking up on supplies early.

Hearing this, Fang Yuxin gazed at her with a smile that was not quite a smile, and said nothing. It was obvious that Fang Mengyao wouldn't show up without a reason, but she was also correct in saying she shouldn't come—nobody in the Fang Family welcomed her. Fang Yuxin didn't feel she was being excessive; Fang Mengyao's origins were too disgraceful, and the Fang Family's willingness to support her was already the utmost act of benevolence.

Thinking of the last words Fang Mengyao had said in the dream, cold chills ran through Fang Yuxin's heart, and her expression darkened. Seeing this, Fang Mengyao felt suffocated with the need to vent her frustration. She blurted out, "Fang Yuxin! I came to see Dad, not to watch your face!"

Qu Qianhe's expression subtly changed upon hearing this. She looked at the unpleasant expressions on both Fang Yuxin's and Fang Mengyao's faces, then stood up saying, "Xinxin, come with me." Her tone was very stern, as if reprimanding Fang Yuxin. Obediently, Fang Yuxin followed her up to the second floor, and once they were in the room with the door closed, Qu Qianhe looked at her helplessly, "Why are you angry with her? If she wants to come, let her be; why bother with her?"

Fang Yuxin found it hard to explain; she couldn't just say she was unable to control the anger inside because of the nightmare from last night, could she? Thinking about Fang Mengyao's attitude, Fang Yuxin couldn't help but say, "Seeing how she behaves so self-righteously as an illegitimate daughter, I've really had an eye-opener."

"You really!" Qu Qianhe laughed while shaking her head. "Your father will be back soon. Don't make things difficult for him, understand? I should go downstairs; it's not polite to leave her alone in the living room. You just stay here in the room until your father comes back, then you can come down."

Fang Yuxin nodded, but her mind was racing. In that dream, she had tried not to make things difficult for Fang Jintang, so when she saw Fang Mengyao making a scene and looking increasingly distasteful, she had given her the set of jade jewelry. But the end result made her feel that some people should not be given too much face! There were too many people in this world who did not appreciate kindness, and always showing leniency would only make the other party think you were weak and could be bullied!

After Qu Qianhe left, Fang Yuxin first took a shower, changed into home clothes, and wore slippers, immediately feeling relaxed all over. Taking the opportunity, she went online to look around, and perhaps because it was on her mind, she now saw that many people despised the wealthy online with completely distorted mentalities.
