Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 248: The Shameless

Su Yijia covered her mouth as she descended from the boat, leaning against the nearby tree, and retched several times, her legs trembling.

Qin Kaize was pushed ashore and immediately struggled to stand up from his wheelchair, walking step by step to her side, patting her back with concern.

"Jiajia, are you okay? Drink some water first and then eat a couple of fresh oranges, you’ll feel better," he unscrewed the water bottle and offered it to Su Yijia’s lips.

After she rinsed her mouth and took a few sips, he handed her the freshly picked and peeled oranges.

These oranges were specially sold at the market for people traveling by boat, tender and juicy with a slight sourness, which could alleviate seasickness better than some dried plums.

"Boss! You can stand up?!"

Su Yijia hadn’t recovered yet when several people suddenly exclaimed from the other side.

She was startled and gasped for breath, then hiccuped.

"Uh..."

Su Yijia hurriedly covered her mouth and straightened up.

There was a slightly inexplicable sense of oppression in her heart.

She had originally planned to appear gracefully at the place where Qin Kaize had stayed for eight years.

Who knew that as soon as she set foot on the island, she would lose face.

The attention of those people should have been on Qin Kaize, right?

Did anyone see her hiccup?

Su Yijia wasn’t sure, comforting herself in her mind.

But the suspicious blush on the tips of her ears was noticed by the man beside her, revealing all her careful thoughts.

Qin Kaize’s sharp gaze pierced through them like a bone-cutting knife.

"What’s all this noise, scaring my wife?"

His stern tone was tinged with undisguised concern.

This made the group of people feel sour.

But what shocked them even more was another matter.

"Boss, did you really get married?"

Although they had heard the news, many people in the camp, especially the female comrades who used to like the boss, believed this was absolutely impossible.

Their boss used to be a celibate, not even interested in the Art Ensemble’s beauty.

Not to mention that they thought he wouldn’t get better because of his injury and therefore wouldn’t be able to marry, which would completely insult him.

Just the fact that their boss was such an upright person, how could he possibly marry someone after being injured like that, delaying a comrade’s lifetime?

They found both of these points reasonable.

So even if someone said it was the leader’s own words, they didn’t quite believe it.

But now, hearing their boss saying so, they immediately shifted their curious gaze to the girl who was being protected by their boss.

She was a fair-skinned girl, with a face as bright as an egg.

Especially those watery almond eyes, looking at them so roundly.

Her unwittingly charming innocence could arouse a man’s protective instinct even more.

They suddenly understood why the boss hurriedly got married this time.

If they could marry such a beautiful wife, where would they find the time to think about it? They would rush back home first.

If they were a little slower, they would definitely be snatched away by other wolves.

Wasn’t their boss lucky this time because of the misfortune?

"Heh, seductive fox!"

Suddenly, a jealous female voice came from the crowd, almost distorted with envy.

When everyone else remained silent, her voice seemed particularly prominent.

Everyone subconsciously looked at her, then showed expressions of disbelief.

She used to be the most beautiful female comrade on their island, dressing up beautifully every day.

Now, why would she call herself their sister-in-law?

The man standing beside that woman also turned somewhat ugly.

He reached out to pull the woman, but she shook him off angrily.

She had originally wanted to secretly criticize, but she didn’t expect her voice to be so loud.

Now being stared at by everyone, she felt too embarrassed to stay any longer, so she could only run away with red eyes.

People who didn’t know would think that Su Yijia had offended her just now.

Although she had never been jealous or competed with others, Su Yijia had read a lot of novels.

She could tell at a glance that the woman was not simple, and she was jealous of her good looks.

Su Yijia immediately turned her head and looked at Qin Kaize, who had a gloomy expression. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The sharp knives in his eyes seemed to be stabbing him.

"I have nothing to do with her. She used to say some things to me, but I scolded her in front of everyone the second time we met. I told her I had no feelings for her and asked her not to pester me. I didn’t expect her to come and bother you," Qin Kaize said sincerely, with a hint of pleading in his tone.

Gao Huabin immediately chimed in, "Yes, sister-in-law, we can all testify. Boss said it at lunchtime in the cafeteria, leaving her no face. Many people saw it, and the people in the camp on the island should all know."

Fortunately, he dealt with these rotten peach blossoms straightforwardly. If it were unclear, he would have to be even more straightforward to completely vent his anger.

Su Yijia snorted and turned her head away.

Afraid that she was still angry, Qin Kaize immediately bent down and continued to gently coax her in her ear, "I’ll tidy up the house later, and then I’ll go find the leader of the Art Ensemble and ask her to come over and apologize to you in public."

"You said that!" Su Yijia’s tense little face immediately relaxed.

She looked at Qin Kaize, whose legs were trembling, and helped him back into his wheelchair with concern.

"What are you showing off for when your legs aren’t fully healed?"

"It’s okay, I just need more strength," Qin Kaize said with a shallow smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

When he had just taken the medicine, trying to use his legs would still cause some pain.

But today, apart from feeling soft, there was no other abnormal feeling.

"Today is just the seventh day. Later, when we get back to the house, I’ll give you another pill. I guess you’ll have no problem walking then," Su Yijia calculated the time and realized that the seven days had passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Kaize’s face lit up even more at her words.

Under the crowd of those team members, they returned to the small courtyard where Xia Weiguo lived together.

The courtyard was quite large, with a thirty-square-meter space at the entrance.

Although it was paved with cement, the yards of other houses nearby were all planted with various vegetables.

Now it was summer, and there were all kinds of beans, green beans, cucumbers, loofahs, bitter gourds, and pumpkins.

In contrast, Xia Weiguo’s overly empty yard seemed a bit lonely.

"I bought some seeds. Let’s also build three pots tomorrow and plant some vegetables," Su Yijia discussed with them.

She had already asked, and the Spirit Spring Water could also increase the growth rate of plants.

As long as it was diluted.

If she wanted to speed up by a month, it would be twelve to one, and if she wanted to speed up by half a month, it would be twenty-four to one.

She could dilute it a little more to make it grow half a month or a month faster than others.

Anyway, she planted late, and it would grow fast along with the neighbors nearby.

At most, she would receive a few compliments.

But it would save her from having to occasionally exchange things with others or go off the island to buy them.

After the shaking from earlier, Su Yijia felt like she wouldn’t leave the island for half a month.

Her grandparents were not used to taking boats, so she couldn’t trouble them either.
