Transmigration as a Female Supporting Role Who Attempted Suicide

Chapter 21: Old Driver



Chapter 21

Wu Hai became impatient and shouted, "But...I can't drive a tricycle..."

Wu Hai was enthusiastic and said, "This thing is simple, isn't it like a small electric moped? Just keep twisting the handlebar."

Zhou Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, I still have one at home, it's convenient to go out."

Shen Shuyao, with an innocent face, said, "Sheng Ge, aren't electric vehicles not allowed in the urban areas of our city?"

Liang Jie thought about it and also nodded, "That's right, Sheng Ge."

Zhou Sheng felt a bit embarrassed and explained, "It's at my hometown. Although my dad is old now, he would still ride an electric bike to buy groceries. I often drive an electric bike when I go back for the Chinese New Year."

"I know how to drive too. My mom used to ride an electric bike to send me to school when I was young. I secretly rode it behind my mom's back in high school, and she still doesn't know." Wu Hai whispered.

Ji Nian felt this man was really quite cute and batted her eyes at him, "Wu Hai, I think your mom will know once the show airs."

Shen Shuyao burst out laughing, watching the man's stunned expression.

It was only then that Wu Hai realized it and said with a bitter face, "Oh no, my mom will definitely scold me."

"Hahaha..." Zhou Sheng couldn't help but laugh, then asked, "But there are three tricycles here, and only we two can drive, what about the other one?"

"Sheng Ge, let me, I can do it. I'll take Shuyao," Ji Nian readily said.

"You can?" Shen Shuyao was surprised and didn't believe it.

Liang Jie was also astonished, "Nian, don't be impulsive. You can ride the tricycle?"

Ji Nian nodded confidently, "Don't worry, I'm an old driver."

Wu Hai still didn't quite believe it and asked, "How did you learn to ride an electric bike?"

Ji Nian was a little stunned. She seemed to have forgotten that her current identity is Ji Nian, the cannon fodder in this novel...

"Uh... I started working after graduating from high school at the age of 17. I learned it while working for two years..." Ji Nian thought about the original owner's experiences that were occasionally mentioned in the book before she came over and made up an excuse to answer.

"I see..." Liang Jie felt a bit awkward and suddenly wondered if Wu Hai's question had hurt this person's self-esteem.

Wu Hai then realized that this Ji Nian was often criticized online and frequently a hot topic. Would his question touch on the girl's pain?

"You're actually amazing to start working at such a young age. You must have suffered a lot," Zhou Sheng said with admiration in his eyes.

When Ji Nian heard this, a wave of inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She felt like herself, yet also not.

She didn't know why, but Zhou Sheng's words made her suddenly feel like crying for some reason.

"It's okay," Ji Nian said with a smile, suddenly becoming a bit absent-minded. She thought about herself.

In that world, her parents had remarried, and she lived with her grandparents for a while, with no one to take care of her.

She had to work hard to save up for tuition and living expenses bit by bit so as not to burden her grandparents too much.

She was ordinary-looking and didn't go out to play or love dressing up. It had always been just her alone, from school to working life. Her only interest and hobby was probably reading novels.

She never thought that one day, she would transmigrate into a novel and have a beautiful face, long legs, and an almost perfect body.

"Enough talk, let's get going," Wu Hai broke the awkwardness.

Zhou Sheng also felt that this topic was inappropriate and quickly said, "Yeah, we have to hurry. Nian, are you sure you can ride the electric bike without any problem?"

Ji Nian came back to her senses, nodded, made an OK gesture, and said, "Don't worry, I'm very stable."

After that, she nimbly sat down and turned to wave at the female lead, Shen Shuyao, indicating for her to get on.

Zhou Sheng saw her rather dashing demeanor and looked at her with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Shen Shuyao didn't know why, but she just sat down next to the woman, feeling inexplicably a special sense of trust towards her.

Ji Nian saw the female lead get on, and her eyes curved into a smile, "Don't worry, I'll drive very stably."

Shen Shuyao looked into the smiling face and said with a blushing face, "Okay."

Although this was a tricycle, there was actually a small camera at the front that recorded their every move.

Ji Nian inserted the key, twisted the handlebar, and the bike slowly started. Since it was a small country road, she wouldn't drive too fast. She slowly enjoyed the scenery while humming a tune.

Shen Shuyao felt it was quite novel and leisurely enjoyed the breeze on the side.

"See? I drive so steadily, don't I?" Ji Nian said out of boredom, trying to chat with the female lead.

Shen Shuyao smiled and nodded, "You're so amazing."

Ji Nian raised her chin proudly, "I can do a lot more, so don't be too in awe of me."

Shen Shuyao burst out laughing, feeling that her personality really didn't match her cold and elegant face at all.

Meanwhile, the director, seeing the footage of a person with a beautiful face and an inexplicable noble aura so naturally driving a broken tricycle...

Not to mention her movements were so skillful, but that posture of an old man with a straw hat on her head...

The camera panned and zoomed in a bit, seeing Ji Nian's smiling eyes and Shen Shuyao's shy expression. The director nodded. These two had something going on.

He would add some heart bubbles in post-production. Who said only men and women could form couples? Looking at it this way, Ji Nian and Shen Shuyao were a perfect couple.

Moreover, ever since Ji Nian appeared on the show, she had been taking care of Shen Shuyao in various ways, such as voluntarily fishing in the pond and washing her shoes—full of boyfriend energy.

The director nodded, having already thought of how to edit it later.

When they reached the market, Ji Nian refused Shen Shuyao's help and easily carried the vegetable crate down by herself, joking that the female lead shouldn't do any manual labor and that she must take on everything.

Shen Shuyao felt a bit embarrassed beside her and said with innocent big eyes, "Nian, I can actually..."

"No..." Ji Nian interrupted the female lead and said seriously, "Look at you, so small. How heavy is this crate? And I'm strong. This crate is woven from bamboo; what if you get hurt by the splinters? Listen, just stand there and wait for me."

Shen Shuyao stared with her big eyes, her fair skin almost seeming to glow in the sunlight, and with her innocent face, many passersby kept turning their heads.

"But...you're also a girl, how can I let you do everything..." Shen Shuyao said anxiously.

Ji Nian gave her a reassuring look and joked, "I'll be responsible for making money to support the family, and you'll be responsible for being beautifully flowery."
