The Insignifcant Female Supporting Character Actually Became a Bigshot in the Novel!

Chapter 35

Testing Zhao Fei

“Ling Feng, I heard from the company that they’re targeting you again. Are you alright? I knew a few technical talents when I was in college, and I was thinking that they might be of some help to your career.”

Ling Feng had originally planned to question her, but after hearing Zhao Fei’s words, he remembered that the people she’d introduced to him would all be talents in technology in the future, at least according to the story.

He had no choice but to suppress his anger and pretend to be surprised. “Really? I’m so grateful, Feifei!”

Zhao Fei smiled. “It’s fine, it’s just a small matter. Have you eaten? I’ll help you cook.”

Ling Feng nodded. “Alright.”

Soon after, three simple dishes had been placed on the dining table, and the two of them sat down to eat.

“There’s something I’ve been hiding from you,” Ling Feng said as he ate. “I actually have a girl that I’ve loved deeply for many years, but she’s already married. I heard that she hasn’t been doing well recently, so I wanted to help her, but she coldly refused. Feifei, do you think I’m not born to be loved by others?”

“I’m so useless that I can’t even keep the person I love,” he said, looking hurt.

Zhao Fei, on the other hand, was stunned when she heard this, and even forgot that she was supposed to comfort him.

Her system had told her that she was only Ling Feng’s substitute, but it could help her to have a successful career and a bountiful love life and could even help her obtain Ling Feng’s love.

She had actually fallen in love with Ling Feng the first time she saw him. Such a handsome man with a melancholic aura around him had rendered her unable to control her feelings. She hoped to be able to comfort his broken heart, to bring him out of his sadness and to embrace a beautiful future with him.

However, the system had cruelly told her that Ling Feng didn’t love her at all. The only reason he treated her special was because she looked like Xi Wan. Later on, when she saw Xi Wan’s photo on the internet, she noticed that while they had similar eyebrows and eyes, their temperaments were very different.

She didn’t have the arrogance that Xi Wan had and was instead more gentle and quiet. She, who came from an ordinary background, didn’t have the right to be arrogant.

But now, for Ling Feng, she was willing to fight.

But now, he had actually taken the initiative to tell her this. Did this mean that Ling Feng had actually let go of Xi Wan?

She tried to probe, “Ling Feng, you’re already very outstanding. Since you’ve said that she’s already married, it’s time for you to let go. They say that chemistry trumps love, and with me by your side, you won’t be lonely.”

Ling Feng looked troubled. “Feifei, my future path may be very difficult. Being with you may drag you down too.”

Zhao Fei understood what he meant and quickly said, “I’m not afraid, Ling Feng. I can protect myself.”

“What? ” Ling Feng asked. “Did you learn martial arts recently?”

Zhao Fei realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly corrected herself. “I’m very cautious, and I’ve been preparing to learn more about the business world. I’ll be able to help you solve your business problems.”

She took the initiative to change the topic, hoping that Ling Feng would not be too bothered by what she had said before. Due to her outstanding performance in completing her mission, her body’s functions had indeed strengthened a lot, and she was much stronger than before.

Ling Feng nodded. “I see, Feifei, you’re the best. By the way, Feifei, what’s the name of your friend in the entertainment industry you mentioned before? It just so happens that I’m planning to invest in a few shows recently, so perhaps there’ll be one that’s suitable for her,” he said casually.

Zhao Fei’s heart trembled.

Could it be that Ling Feng knew something?

Though she was on guard, she maintained a calm exterior as she looked at him.

Her mouth twitched a little. “No, there’s no need. She said that she didn’t get the role of the female lead and felt that she might not be suitable for acting, so she decided to leave the industry herself.”

“Leave the industry? Well, that’s a pity. If she still wants to continue filming, you can ask her to come to me. ” he said.

“Alright. Thank you, Ling Feng.”

Zhao Fei quickly started to eat, not wanting to continue talking about this topic.

Even though she thought she had concealed it well, Ling Feng could still see her panic.
