The Female Supporting Character Just Wants to Farm [Transmigration] - Chapter 18

Shuang Hua’s sharp eyes spotted Gao Luoshen’s face, a mask of righteous fury, from a distance. Her heart sank. Who upset this young mistress now? She glanced back into the room; there was no commotion. Taking a deep breath, she put on a faint smile and blocked Gao Luoshen’s path.

“Get out of the way!” Gao Luoshen grew even more wary seeing Shuang Hua blocking her with that fake, strange smile. That little maid can’t stand me. How could she be smiling so brightly? Something’s wrong here! This only reinforced her suspicion. Her face grew darker, as if it could drip ink.

Gao Luoshen didn’t want to get involved in Gao Chun’s business, but Gao Chun was still so young! She was supposed to become an Empress, right? How could she be messing around with a random man in broad daylight? The more she thought about it, the more her temper flared. Gao Luoshen shoved Fangze aside and insisted on seeing Gao Chun.

“Third Miss is sleeping. Perhaps Second Miss could come back another day,” Shuang Hua said, her eyes rolling so hard in her head they were practically in orbit. But on the surface, she maintained a polite smile. Gao Luoshen’s fierce expression looked like she was here to bully her mistress. There was no way Shuang Hua would let her succeed.

“Bullshit!” In her desperation, Gao Luoshen even blurted out a vulgarity. Taking advantage of Shuang Hua’s momentary daze, she sidestepped her and marched past! Sleeping in the middle of the day? That’s even more suspicious. Why would she be sleeping? Was a man leaving when she was asleep? Does she have no shame or dignity? Gao Luoshen was truly worried. She walked to the door, placed her hand on the red-carved wooden door, and pushed hard. It creaked open, startling the person inside.

Gao Chun was standing with her hands behind her back by the window. She was looking at who-knows-what. Maybe she’s sad because that man left and wants to watch him disappear?

Gao Luoshen looked at Gao Chun with suspicion. Gao Chun had turned to look at her, but she didn’t say a word. The only sound was Shuang Hua, who had followed her, quietly complaining. Gao Luoshen ignored her. She looked around the simply furnished room, her eyes wandering behind the screen, under the bed, and beside the cabinets. Finally, her gaze fell on a cup of steaming hot tea on the table. She walked to the table in a few steps, picked up the cup, and sniffed it. When she didn’t smell anything strange, she put it down.

“Is something wrong?” Gao Chun glanced at Gao Luoshen, wondering what kind of crazy stunt this woman was pulling now.

Gao Luoshen sat down in a chair and said like a spoiled child, “Can’t I come here if there’s nothing wrong?”

Gao Chun was stunned for a moment, then she gave a faint smile. “You can.” She then ignored Gao Luoshen, found a book on a shelf, and started reading slowly. Seeing this, Shuang Hua knew that her mistress wasn’t going to kick Gao Luoshen out, so she silently left the room. As she went, she shot a sharp glare at Gao Luoshen. This person is so unpredictable. Her personality has changed so much. What kind of game is she playing?

Gao Luoshen stared at Gao Chun, her eyes fixed on her. She couldn’t understand why a person as big as her couldn’t cause any psychological ripple in Gao Chun. Gao Chun just kept reading that strange book! Gao Luoshen was a little annoyed. She couldn’t figure out where her anger came from or why she was so upset. She took a deep breath, curled her fingers, and tapped on the porcelain cup, making a crisp sound.

Gao Chun knew Gao Luoshen was doing it on purpose. She sighed, put down her book, and turned to Gao Luoshen. “Why are you here? Is there something in my courtyard that you like? Just take it back with you.”

Gao Luoshen’s face stiffened. What am I, a bandit who came to plunder the city? Can’t I just visit my dear sister? She pursed her lips and asked, “Gao Chun, I’m going to ask you, do you see me as your sister?” Come to think of it, calling her “sister” was a bit of a stretch. Gao Chun’s real sisters were probably waiting in the palace.

“Of course. What are you talking about, Second Sister? Just say what’s on your mind,” Gao Chun said calmly.

Gao Luoshen frowned and thought for a moment. She stared at Gao Chun’s face. It looks nothing like anyone else in the family. Why has no one ever pointed that out? But then again, she was truly a beauty, as clear as the moon, as cold as snow, and as pure as jade. “I won’t beat around the bush anymore,” she said, her face scrunched up. “Are you in love? If you like a young master, just ask Big Brother to arrange a marriage. You don’t need to do anything sneaky. Besides, I know most of the young masters from the noble families in the capital. Their character isn’t what it seems. You’re getting older, but you don’t have to settle.” Gao Luoshen rambled on. When she finished, she straightened her back, placed her hands on her knees, and stared intensely at Gao Chun.

Gao Chun was both amused and annoyed by her words. Where did she hear these rumors? “What nonsense are you talking about?” she asked.

Gao Luoshen saw that she was determined to not admit it. Based on her principle of staying away from the female protagonist, she should have left right away, but a strange emotion made her speak again. She said with a worried face, “I saw a dark figure come out of your room. It was daytime. How can you be so bold? He was also very frivolous. He didn’t look like a good person.”

A dark figure? Gao Chun’s eyes instantly darkened. A subordinate had just come to give her a report. He must have been the one Gao Luoshen saw leaving. But did she think she was having an affair? Or was there something else on her mind? Gao Chun’s eyes became playful. She looked at Gao Luoshen and said nonchalantly, “Second Sister, you must have seen it wrong. There have been a lot of crows around lately. Did you mistake a crow for a dark figure?”

Is that it? Gao Luoshen frowned and thought for a moment. It was very possible. When she first arrived, she had looked around and hadn’t found any traces of a man. She let out a sigh of relief. “Then I must have been mistaken,” she said. She paused, then added, “You still have to remember what I said. Don’t settle. From what I’ve seen of Su Mingjing’s character, her brother, Su Mingyuan, can’t be a good person either.”

Gao Chun looked amused and agreed to Gao Luoshen’s words. “Yes, yes, everything Second Sister says is right.”

Seeing Gao Luoshen’s obedient attitude, Gao Luoshen relaxed a little. She nodded and then changed the subject back. She had originally come to Gao Chun’s courtyard to talk about the poisoning case at the Prince’s residence, but she had been sidetracked by the “random man.” She asked, “Did you hear? It seems the poisoning case at the Prince of Chu’s residence is related to the former Crown Prince.” As she said this, she stared at Gao Chun. Although she tried to maintain a calm expression, her face still showed a hint of a crack.

Gao Chun stood up and slowly walked toward Gao Luoshen.

At that moment, Gao Luoshen’s mind became instantly clear. The female protagonist is indeed a force to be reckoned with! Her aura is no joke! I was supposed to stay away from her, so what am I doing here? I’m just looking for trouble. Isn’t this just asking for death? She was trembling and her face was full of unease. She wanted to find an excuse to leave, but Gao Chun had already walked over to her. She cupped Gao Luoshen’s face in her hands and gently rubbed it. Her warm fingertips slowly moved from her ears to her cheeks and lips, as if she were looking for something.

“Wh-what are you doing?” Gao Luoshen’s cheeks were being squeezed, and she couldn’t speak properly. She widened her eyes and glared at Gao Chun, a look of annoyance on her face.

Gao Chun let go of her hands and gave Gao Luoshen a faint smile.

Gao Luoshen rubbed her cheek, which had been kneaded for a while. She rolled her eyes. “You have no respect! I’m your Second Sister!” At that moment, the fear and panic in her heart all disappeared. Since she had arrived in this world, she had been trying to behave herself and had done so many good things for the protagonist. How could she possibly hurt her?

“I’m just checking to see how thick your skin is,” Gao Chun said calmly.

Gao Luoshen’s personality had changed so much. Her first reaction was that she was an impostor. But the information from the villa showed no abnormalities. She pinched Gao Luoshen’s face again and didn’t find any disguise. It seemed that it was just a change in her personality. In the past, Gao Luoshen’s words and actions were sometimes crazy, as if she were possessed. With that thought, Gao Chun’s mind was at ease. She finally brought the topic back, pointed at Gao Luoshen’s forehead, and said, “There are some things you don’t need to get involved in.”

That’s easy for you to say.

Gao Luoshen scoffed inwardly. If you truly didn’t get involved, how would you have reclaimed your identity, eliminated all your brothers, and climbed to the throne?
