The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 517 - 508: Slapping the Golden Finger Rebirth Girl 36

Xie Minglang didn’t even wait for Yu Anjing to finish crying before he left.

He really just walked away.

Yu Anjing was dumbfounded.

How could he just leave?

After all, she was the benefactor who helped him find his family, didn’t he always want to repay the kindness, why did he leave?

Actually, Xie Minglang was really disgusted by Yu Anjing.

Heavens, this Yu Anjing really is shameless.

Clearly, it was the Anning Gang’s doing, but Yu Anjing took all the credit and even tried to make him embarrass Anning. If it weren’t for his conscience feeling a bit guilty, for feeling it’s somewhat wrong to treat a young girl like that, although he did something about it, he didn’t escalate it further, otherwise, he may have really harmed the real benefactor.

Thinking of this, Xie Minglang felt a wave of nausea and fear.

Thinking of the beautiful and kind-hearted Anning, Xie Minglang smiled again.

It is said that Anning is also his little fan.

Such a cute little fan, and also his benefactor, of course, he should treat her well.

Xie Minglang drove to the entrance of Thirteen Middle School.

He wanted to thank Anning, and also, he wanted to invite Anning for a meal.

Waiting and waiting, Xie Minglang finally saw Anning.

He disguised himself and stopped Anning.

"Yu, I have something to tell you."

Anning knew who it was just by hearing the voice.

Anning looked at Xie Minglang with a skeptical look: "Do you have something? Are you trying to deceive me again?"

Xie Minglang’s face turned red with shame.

Deceiving the little girl back then was really wrong.

He lowered his head and looked at Anning again: "I didn’t, that time I... I was wrong, I want to apologize to you, and also, do you remember the time you helped me? I am that little boy whom you helped find his family."

Anning’s eyes widened, she looked at Xie Minglang with great curiosity for a long time before recognizing some features of the little boy from back then.

"It’s you."

Anning smiled.

Her smile made her eyes bend and cheek dimples faintly visible, truly sweet and captivating: "I didn’t recognize you before, that... I just helped you a little, you don’t need to take it to heart, I need to go home to do homework, I’ll be leaving now."

Anning didn’t want to talk much with Xie Minglang.

She slung her backpack and was about to leave.

Xie Minglang quickly followed and caught up with her: "Hey, I, I want to thank you, can you give me a chance?"

Anning turned back to look at him: "You, a big celebrity walking with me, be careful not to cause me trouble, if you want to thank me, please stay away from me, also, I really only did a very minor thing back then, I barely remember it, don’t take it too seriously."

The more she said this, the guiltier Xie Minglang felt.

"For you it might be a small matter, but for me, it was something tremendously significant."

To this day, Xie Minglang still remembered how he escaped from the couple who had bought him because he was young and had nowhere to go. He had to pick up trash for a living. That winter was particularly cold; he picked trash all day and didn’t make much money. As it was getting dark and he hadn’t earned any money for food, he was hungry and cold, it was truly difficult.

If it weren’t for meeting Anning, he might have really perished that winter night.

Anning saw he was pitiful and bought him some food, and even sat with him at the entrance of a small shop to chat.

Listening to him say he had been trafficked since he was a child, that he couldn’t even remember who his parents were, little Anning cried terribly.

Back then, Anning was very young, the little girl’s large tear-filled eyes were something he could never forget for many years.

Later, his parents found him; according to them, a little girl had called them, informing them of the whereabouts of the son they had been searching for many years.

It turned out that after returning, Anning always felt his face looked familiar. After racking her brain for a long time, she finally remembered seeing a couple resembling him; that couple had had business relations with Father Yu, and Anning had seen Father Yu calling them.

Anning’s memory was quite good; she still remembered the couple’s faces, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt they resembled Xie Minglang. She secretly obtained the couple’s business card from Father Yu’s study and sneaked off to a public phone booth to make the call.

After Xie Minglang returned to the Xie Family, he and his parents had tried to find the little girl who made the call, but she had used a public phone, and they really couldn’t locate her.

Initially, Xie Minglang had never connected the little girl who called with the little girl who had given him food and chatted with him.

Later, after having that dream, he realized that the two girls were the same person, and this person was Yu Anjing.

He also saw some resemblances on Yu Anjing’s face to the little girl from back then, such as the eyebrows and mouth, which confirmed to him that it was Yu Anjing.

But now, after carefully examining Anning, Xie Minglang finally confirmed that the little girl back then was Anning.

Xie Minglang wanted to slap himself.

Why had he assumed without any investigation at all that it was Yu Anjing who had helped him?

What was he thinking?

Why did he never think of Anning?

If only...

If only he had been a bit more careful and not blinded by that dream, perhaps he and Anning would be close now.

The more he thought about it, the more Xie Minglang resented Yu Anjing.

It was not only Xie Minglang who hated Yu Anjing; Ge Yiming and Wei Haoxuan also despised Yu Anjing.

Especially Wei Haoxuan.

To others, Yu Anjing had simply betrayed their benefactor and led them astray.

But for Wei Haoxuan, Yu Anjing had caused him to lose the girl he loved.

If Yu Anjing hadn’t appeared, he might have been very close to Anning by now, and even if they were busy with their studies and not dating, what about in college?

After all, Anning had previously liked Wei Haoxuan quite a bit, and the two had already shown some budding ambiguity. But Yu Anjing intervened, making Wei Haoxuan do many things that wronged Anning.

In this lifetime, Anning probably would never forgive Wei Haoxuan, and definitely would not be together with him.

Every time Wei Haoxuan thought about it, he was filled with regret.

After school, Wei Haoxuan quietly followed Anning; he wanted to make up for his mistakes, but he feared making Anning even more disgusted, so he quietly followed her.

This had been going on for two days.

Every day, he would watch Anning safely enter the residential area before leaving.

Today, Wei Haoxuan noticed a man stopping Anning.

The man talked with Anning for a long time, Anning was visibly annoyed, yet the man kept blocking her way.

Wei Haoxuan was quite angry.

He quickly stepped up, pulled Anning behind him, and looked warily at the man, "Sir, what do you want?"

Xie Minglang looked at Wei Haoxuan’s protective demeanor, feeling a bitter taste in his heart.

He looked down, "Anning and I are acquaintances; we were... just chatting."

"Chatting?"

Wei Haoxuan became even more vigilant: "Why are you blocking Anning from leaving? Is this how you chat?"

Meanwhile, Wei Haoxuan turned to ask Anning, "Are you okay?"

Anning shook her head: "I’m fine."

She tightened the straps of her backpack: "I have some things to take care of, I need to go."

Taking advantage of the standoff between the two men, Anning had already run off quickly.
