Cannon-Fodder Female Supporting Character Swaps Bodies with Her Cold Husband-Chapter 9

Rebellious

Gu Lian had been nurtured as an heir since he was young. His constant elegance gradually became his habit, even though most of the time, it was hypocritical and made him feel nauseous.

The people at the dining table were shocked by ‘Mo Yu’s’ elegant and impeccable actions. In the next second, they saw her raise her glass again and drink it in one gulp. Then, she put down the glass and smiled.

“I’ve already heard too many people talking about me today. They say that I’m not bad-looking but my skin is rough. They say that my waist and legs are slender but the muscles on my arms are too obvious. They say that my table manners are not elegant enough. They say that I don’t understand seating rules and that I’m a vulgar person.”

“Here, I want to say to everyone present, don’t put on those so-called airs and point fingers at me! What I look like and what kind of life I lead has nothing to do with you! Stop staring at me from above. Are you very noble? Don’t use your standards to measure my life!”

Everyone discussed animatedly before the banquet began, but when they left after it ended, their expressions were different.

The people invited to the banquet today more or less wanted to inquire about the Gu family’s situation. They wanted to know if Gu Lian could wake up. They also wanted to see how the fiancée of the Gu family, who had been found from the countryside, was doing.

In the end, they did not receive any news about Gu Lian, nor did they see Mo Yu make a fool of herself. Instead, they were reprimanded by her. No one could maintain their composure.

It was hard to speak in person, but they could always talk behind her back.

A few young ladies who had a good relationship with Mo Xue were surrounding her and discussing.

“This Mo Yu should have studied hard and planned her movements before coming. Otherwise, how could she have done it so well?”

“Well, she wasn’t that great either. I think she was quite stiff when she held the wine.”

“That’s right. And that dress of hers. It’s so old-fashioned.”

“No matter what, she’s just imitating. She can’t compare to our Little Xue.”

“Young Master Gu wouldn’t like such a barbarian! He would definitely break off the engagement with her when he wakes up!”

…

When Mo Xue heard their comfort, she felt much better. She attributed Mo Yu’s abnormality today to jealousy of her. She still waited happily for Mo Yu to abuse Gu Lian and she would become the light that healed Gu Lian.

Gu Lian leaned back in his chair and lowered his head tiredly.

Humans were really strange creatures. When they were in groups of three or five, they would always talk about others without thinking about whether they respected others. When they were the ones who were the target of conversation, they would start to get angry. They would go with the flow and criticize others without thinking about themselves.

A motley crew.

“Little Yu, it’s been hard on you today. It’s only now that I know you’ve suffered so much criticism and grievances.” Su Mei looked at ‘Mo Yu’ sitting alone under the light and suddenly felt her heart ache. She walked over and sat beside her.

“It’s okay, Mom. I’m not aggrieved.” Gu Lian used Mo Yu’s body to vent his dissatisfaction for so many years. He was in a good mood for half a day.

When he took over the company, he was only 19 years old. At that time, Father Gu’s health was not good. In order to establish his dignity in front of the board of directors, he could only package himself as cold and heartless. In fact, he was just a young boy, but he took on the responsibility of the company without a word. In two years, he had strengthened the Gu Corporation.

The outside world always said that he was cold and heartless, that he was a genius. Little did they know that behind their backs, he read documents and reports until late at night.

If not for that car accident, the Gu family would still be a business giant. Gu Lian thought that if his own body could never wake up, perhaps it would be good to use Mo Yu’s body to live like this.

It was just not easy to take a shower.

“I heard what you were thinking!” Mo Yu’s voice suddenly sounded, scaring Gu Lian.

“Are you alright, Little Yu? If it’s too cold, go back to your room and rest first.” Su Mei looked at ‘Mo Yu’ worriedly. This child had suddenly trembled, it better not be a cold.

“Mm… Okay, then I’ll go back to my room first, Mom.” Gu Lian stood up and was about to go back to his room when he was stopped by Su Mei.

“All these years, Little Lian’s physical care has been handled by professionals, but they’re outsiders after all. There are some places that they can’t look. You’re his fiancée now, which means that you’re his unoffical wife. I have a presumptuous request to trouble you,” Su Mei said shyly.

“Can you help him wipe his body and private parts every day? Male caregivers don’t work as meticulously, and it’s not good to ask female caregivers to touch those parts. Don’t worry, Mom won’t let you work for nothing.”

Gu Lian looked at his mother and suddenly smiled.

“It’s okay, Mom. Just as you said, I’m already the Gu family’s future daughter-in-law. This is what I should do.”
