Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 286 - 243 Third Watch

"You’re Xu Ke? What are you doing blocking my way?" Rong Manman glared at the person in front of her with disapproval.

Xu Ke didn’t care about her attitude and scoffed, "Don’t you want to know about Rong Yan’s affairs?"

Rong Manman originally wanted to say she wasn’t interested, but the words choked back at her lips.

She squinted at the woman in front of her, "What do you know about her?"

"Like the man she married." As soon as she mentioned this, Xu Ke almost spat out a pint of blood.

Yesterday afternoon, she was considering how to investigate Rong Yan’s return to Jing City, but unexpectedly, she heard a shocking piece of news.

That was... Qin Ye... turned out to be the Qin Family’s long-lost eldest grandson.

When she first heard this, she absolutely didn’t believe it, considering such coincidences are rare in this world.

It could have been someone with the same name.

But when those people mentioned twins, as well as Rong Yan’s name, she knew there was no chance of mistaken identity.

Because it was indeed Qin Ye and Rong Yan.

This almost made her cough up blood with frustration.

She had thought that that woman, having married a penniless nobody like Qin Ye, even if he was good-looking, would still end up poor in the countryside for the rest of her life.

But who could have imagined... he turned out to be the precious grandson of the Qin Mansion.

Had she known this earlier, how could she possibly have let Rong Yan marry him?

She herself should have been the one to step in.

Once, a tremendous wealth had been within her grasp, yet she had just watched it slip by, could you blame her for feeling like spitting blood?

When Rong Manman heard what Xu Ke had said, she thought wildly of the man who had gotten on the carriage.

"Isn’t her man some country hick?"

Xu Ke’s face was filled with mockery, "A country hick? Are your eyes faulty? Did the person you saw earlier look anything like a country hick?"

"Then who is he?" Rong Manman stared at Xu Ke, missing nothing of her expression.

"You know the big estate over in the Second Ring? Qin Ye is the true grandson, lost from the family of Old Sir Qin himself, born into a distinguished heritage! That threshold is so high, even if you worked at it for lifetimes, you probably couldn’t marry into it."

This statement made Rong Manman quite displeased, "As if I care?"

When Xu Ke heard these words, it was as if she had heard a joke.

An old maid who couldn’t get married, how could she brazenly say such things? You think you’re worthy?

"Since that’s the case, there’s nothing else to discuss, I’m leaving."

She was counting in her mind one, two, three as she turned around.

"Wait."

When Xu Ke heard these words, the corners of her mouth curled slightly.

Then she leisurely turned around.

"Why are you telling me all this?" Rong Manman asked.

Xu Ke sneered, "Isn’t it obvious? The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I hate Rong Yan, and you do too... probably more deeply than I do. So, we are both people who can’t stand to see her well."

Facing someone so similar to herself, Xu Ke didn’t bother to pretend.

Rong Manman:...

There was really no need to make it so clear.

Xu Ke didn’t wait for her to speak and spoke again, "Think about it, if you could snatch Rong Yan’s man from her, wouldn’t her good days be yours? Her man is quite handsome and has a promising future!"

"I heard he got into the best university in Jing City, that’s a college student!"

Upon hearing this, Rong Manman’s breathing grew heavier.

She asked with the last bit of her rationale, "...If he’s so great, why don’t you go after him yourself?"

Xu Ke laughed, "Because, I’m already married!"

Though her husband was twenty years older and had stepchildren, her life was pretty decent.

Now that Xu Ke mentioned it, Rong Manman remembered having heard something like this before, but she wasn’t interested in Xu Ke then, so she didn’t pay attention.

Of course, the main reason was, men like Qin Ye were entirely out of her league.

***

On the road, Qin Ye sneezed.

Qin Zhen glanced at him, "It must be Old Master Qin thinking of you again. Ever since he found out how well you did on your college entrance exams, he’s been counting the days until you return!"

He would often see you in the future.

Of course, it would be even better if Qin Ye’s family could move to the Qin Mansion to live with Old Master Qin.

Qin Ye didn’t respond to his words.

Qin Zhen looked at his bored expression and involuntarily glanced at the three passengers in the backseat through the rearview mirror.

"Sister-in-law, congratulations on doing so well."

"It’s okay," Rong Yan replied shortly.

"By the way, I still haven’t transferred you the money from selling those nourishing pills last time; I’ll send it over when we get home."

"Okay, we’ll settle that later. We can pay you back the money Qin Ye borrowed for the house."

Hearing this, Qin Zhen was surprised, "You have money now?"

No way! How could you make real money in a rural village?

If they really made money, then they... must have gotten involved in the black market?

That seemed to be the only explanation.

"We can pay you back just fine," Rong Yan said.

Qin Ye rarely interjected to explain, "It was the royalties my wife earned."

Earning royalties? That much? Qin Zhen was dumbfounded.

Had he not been driving, and it wasn’t feasible to stop the car suddenly, he really would have liked to stop and have a good talk.

"What does your sister-in-law write?"

"We’ll talk about it later," Rong Yan didn’t want to say more.

Even though Qin Zhen wanted to ask further, it clearly wasn’t the right time.

So he switched back to talking about returning the money.
