Chapter 3

Being in a book was not terrible.What was terrible was becoming the vicious female supporting character!Fortunately, Sima Qi had not turned into a vicious woman yet.Until now, the image Sima Qi had was that of a lowly person willing to give everything up for love!As she lay on the soft silk bed and looked at the smart home that could be seen from every angle, Sima Qi thought that since this was where she had ended up, she should just take things as they came.Since she was here, she would not let the plot drift and send her on her original path of no return.After all, she had already changed the direction of the story and became the wife of Shi Mo.Sima Qi’s gaze fell onto the black card she held tightly.Instantly, she felt revived.She was a social animal from the 21st century; today, she just had to experience the happiness of having more money than she could spend.”Miss, you have excellent taste. This dress is one of our latest designs.””Your temperament matches this dress very well.”Sima Qi: “I’d like to buy everything!”The salesperson was grinning from ear to ear! He quickly showed Sima Qi to the changing room.Just then, an important client arrived.”Little Rong, there are some new designs here. Let’s go in and take a look.””Sure, Brother Xiao.”‘Little Rong? Brother Xiao?’Sima Qi, currently dressed in a beautiful dress, stopped what she was doing. This could not possibly be such a coincidence, could it?She gently lifted the curtain of the changing room and peered out through the crack in the doorway.She saw a big and tall man accompanying a delicate and petite woman. Their backs were facing Sima Qi as they perused the clothing.The woman was standing next to the man without moving.The man was helping her choose a few pieces of clothing as he gestured towards the woman.”This is not bad.” Mu Xiao said, apparently very satisfied with a particular piece of clothing.Zhang Rong pouted and said, “Brother Xiao, this doesn’t suit me. The skirt is too long.”She then said in frustration, “If only I could be taller. My figure is not as nice as Sister Sima’s.”Mu Xiao’s face was full of sympathy. “You’re just right. I like a petite and delicate figure!””Besides, Sima Qi is too mature. She’s not as cute as you.”‘ Haha!’ Sima Qi could not help but roll her eyes.She finally understood. The author had not given her a seductive figure to give Zhang Rong a pure and cute persona. On the contrary, Zhang Rong was very petite. As for her own figure… Sima Qi smiled unkindly; it did not really matter here.Just then, the sc*mbag turned around.Sima Qi saw both of their faces.Mu Xiao had an imposing figure. He was a handsome man, just like Shi Mo.Zhang Rong had the face of a female protagonist. She looked very kind, but she had delicate and pitiful-looking eyes. Even Sima Qi could not help but feel pity for her.It was no wonder Mu Xiao did not feel affection for Sima Qi, even though she had done everything for him. This was the style that he preferred.Sima Qi, who actually had a good figure, walked out wearing the clothes she had just changed into.She stared at the two people who were just outside.”Sister Sima, why are you here?”Zhang Rong covered her mouth in shock. She looked at Sima Qi more intently, realizing that the outfit that she was wearing did not fit her well.Her eyes momentarily flashed.She took Sima Qi’s hand affectionately and said, “Sister, please don’t misunderstand. Brother Mu Xiao is picking out some outfits for me to wear on stage.”Zhang Rong acted as if she was close to Sima Qi because she still had to rely on Sima Qi to write her songs.Of course, according to the author, Zhang Rong also felt conflicted and did not want to snatch away Sima Qi’s man. However, she had been helpless to resist Mu Xiao sincere advances toward her.This morning, Mu Xiao had even blocked her from leaving the changing room and questioned her. He had said that he was going to marry Sima Qi and asked if she was that indifferent to it?Zhang Rong could only look back at him pitifully.She had not known how to respond.Mu Xiao had then taken the initiative to kiss her. Zhang Rong had cried, “Sister Sima has sacrificed so much for you and even written so many songs for me. I can’t let her down.”With that, she had run out crying.Mu Xiao had chased after her.In the end, Zhang Rong almost tripped and was pulled into Mu Xiao’s warm embrace.They had then looked at each other affectionately.Mu Xiao had sworn to the heavens that he would not marry anyone else but her.He had already fallen in love with her.Zhang Rong was moved and finally agreed to be Mu Xiao’s girlfriend.However, she did not want Sima Qi to be sad, so she decided to hide this matter from her for the time being.Sima Qi smiled. “What could I possibly misunderstand?””Oh, that’s right, Mu Xiao, I saw that you were hesitant about marrying me, so I think we should break up.””Of course, I’ve always been sincere toward you, but you’ve been holding back on me. So I’ve decided I don’t want to chase after you anymore.”Sima Qi looked at Mu Xiao coldly.After saying that, Sima Qi ignored the two of them and passed the clothes, she had chosen to the salesperson. “I’ll take all of them.”The waiter was overjoyed.Sima Qi had chosen the latest and most expensive clothes.The price of one piece of clothing was enough to cover the salesperson’s salary for a year.How could he not be happy?Mu Xiao followed her and said in disbelief, “What did you say? Are you breaking up with me?”He frowned as he looked at the clothes Sima Qi had just bought.Since Sima Qi had sold all the assets that her mother had left for her unconditionally and supported his career, it had been a long time since Sima Qi had even bought clothes worth more than a thousand dollars.
