The Cannon Fodder Stole the Male Lead’s Script GL - Chapter 62

Mei Jianxue looked at her timid expression and couldn’t help but laugh. She appeared so shy and fearful, yet unexpectedly adorable.

“Alright, sit properly. As long as you’re next to me, they won’t dare bully you.”

Qin Meng immediately looked touched. “Really? Thank you so much.” Her big eyes welled up with tears, making her look like a little hamster. She was an odd mix of ugly and cute.

That was what Mei Jianxue thought, smiling to herself. The girl had a charming presence even if her looks were not remarkable.

Mei Jianxue smiled and turned her attention back to her phone.

Qin Meng sat pitifully beside her, yet behind the thick black-rimmed glasses, her eyes sparkled with mischief. She kept stealing glances at the girl called Mei Jianxue.

From a distance, she had already found her beautiful. Up close, she was breathtaking. There was a kind of cool and roguish charm about her.

In truth, those girls earlier could never really bully her. With her skills, she could easily handle a few of them. If she had not acted weak, this fairy-like sister would not have stepped in to help, and without that she would have had no chance to get close to her.

“Why do you keep staring at me?”

Mei Jianxue frowned and turned her head, noticing that the girl named Qin Changmeng had been looking at her all this time. For some reason, that gaze gave her chills.

“Because you’re so beautiful, sister.”

The words slipped out of Qin Meng’s mouth without hesitation.

Mei Jianxue froze for a moment. Plenty of people had complimented her looks before, but rarely had anyone been so blunt.

Then the girl seemed to realize what she had said. She quickly covered her mouth, blushed deeply, and looked extremely embarrassed.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be rude. I’m really sorry…”

She bowed nervously while apologizing, though she couldn’t stop herself from sneaking more glances at Mei Jianxue’s face.

Mei Jianxue was taken aback by her behavior, then burst into laughter.

Although she thought the girl was a bit silly, there was something delightfully innocent and sweet about her.

Being admired so openly felt oddly satisfying. Normally, she would get annoyed if someone kept going on about her looks, although this girl was different.

She was simply too adorable with her candid expressions.

Mei Jianxue laughed gracefully, her beauty even more dazzling. Qin Meng, already flushed, muttered quietly, “Sister, you look even more beautiful when you smile.”

Mei Jianxue paused, then laughed even harder.

With her chin resting on her hand and her sparkling eyes watching Qin Meng, she asked, “Am I really that pretty?”

Qin Meng quickly nodded, then shook her head, then nodded again. She looked completely flustered.

Mei Jianxue gave a deliberate hum. “So which is it? Pretty or not? Why are you nodding and shaking your head at the same time?”

Qin Meng pulled at her sleeve and looked down. “You are very beautiful, sister. That’s why I nodded. But you’re not just beautiful. Saying you’re pretty doesn’t seem enough to describe how stunning you are, so I shook my head.”

“Hahaha, then tell me how pretty I am. Give me some descriptive words.”

“Ah?”

Qin Meng looked panicked.

Her face turned red, her eyes darted around, and after a long pause, she still couldn’t come up with anything.

“I… emmmm… ah…”

“Sorry, I really can’t think of the right words!”

Mei Jianxue propped her elbow on her leg and her chin on her hand. She smiled and looked at her. “Why are you so nervous? If it’s hard to explain, I’ll give you something to compare with, alright?”

She raised her other hand and passed her phone to Qin Meng.

“Do I look better than this person?”

Qin Meng hesitated, wondering who else in school could possibly be more beautiful than the girl in front of her. Among the nearby schools, only that troublemaker Jiang Yun could compare in terms of beauty.

Most of the others were either sweet-looking or gentle types. None of them were her type.

Curious, Qin Meng looked at the phone. But when she saw the image on the screen, she froze.

Um…

The girl on the screen was stunning. To what extent?

Her beauty could overshadow the sun and moon, and make the stars pale in comparison.

She could be considered a top-tier global beauty.

A casual glance on the red carpet could pierce through one’s soul. Her sparkling eyes could stir the heart. Her perfect figure, fair skin, and long legs made her the dream of everyone online.

Because that person… was Qin Meng herself.

She never expected Mei Jianxue’s comparison to be her.

This meant that even in the eyes of another beautiful girl, her looks were recognized.

“Hmm… this girl is very beautiful.”

Qin Meng: I’m just being objective. This isn’t bragging.

Mei Jianxue looked slightly disappointed.

“But not as beautiful as you, sister.”

Qin Meng: That’s pure flattery, though I refuse to admit she’s better looking than me.

Mei Jianxue’s eyes immediately lit up.

“Really?!”

Qin Meng reluctantly nodded.

Mei Jianxue cheerfully patted the seat beside her and asked her to sit closer. She scrolled through photos of Qin Meng on her phone, all recent red carpet shots.

But she only picked the unedited ones.

That knocked her good impression of this pretty sister down by about 0.1.

“Do you know who this is?” Mei Jianxue asked, staring at the screen. Her voice suddenly softened.

Qin Meng blinked, unsure how to answer. If she said yes, she could not predict how Mei Jianxue would respond, while saying no would only make her appear unaccomplished.

She shook her head. “I don’t know.”

“Her name is Qin Meng, same surname as you. Your names are even quite similar,” Mei Jianxue said with a slight smile.

Qin Meng nodded nonchalantly. “Is that so? What a coincidence. But sister, why are you comparing yourself to her? She’s not as beautiful as you.”

She was going all out to win over this beautiful sister.

Besides, she really wanted to know what Mei Jianxue thought of her celebrity persona.

“Hmph, I’m just not convinced.”

Mei Jianxue’s expression turned sour.

Qin Meng sat beside her and decided to listen carefully.

But Mei Jianxue seemed to still have reservations and didn’t reveal much. She only said, “One day I’ll surpass her and make sure she sees me.”

Qin Meng: ???

At that moment, the KTV door opened. Mei Yu and her classmates had returned with drinks. Everyone quickly stood up to divide the drinks.

While Mei Jianxue went to get a drink, the other girls rushed over and began mocking Qin Meng.

“You still think you can stay here? Mei Yu and the others are back. Didn’t you say Jiang Yun was coming? Where is she? Qin Changmeng, if you can’t do it, just admit it. Someone like Jiang Yun would never know someone as invisible as you. Next time you brag, make it less obvious. We’ll let you stay today because Jianxue is here. Don’t push your luck again. What a disgrace.”

The girls surrounded her with a barrage of ridicule.

Qin Meng sat on the sofa, not even bothering to look at them.

She was too busy thinking. Had she and Mei Jianxue met before?

Why did Mei Jianxue seem so hostile toward her?

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t remember seeing such a beautiful girl before. If she had, she would have already pursued her.

On the other side, Mei Yu overheard the conversation.

Surprised, she asked, “What? Jiang Yun is coming?!”

The girls who were grabbing drinks sneered. “You actually believe that nonsense? Aren’t you in the same class as Qin Changmeng? Don’t you know what she’s like? She was all talk, always skipping class and sleeping through lectures, so who could she possibly know?? She bragged about bringing Jiang Yun, but where is she…”

At that moment, the KTV door opened.

A tall girl stepped inside. Her long ponytail had been let down and now curled slightly behind her back. She looked relaxed and at ease.

She was still wearing the Yinchuan High School uniform. Holding a phone and wearing black leather boots, she walked in confidently.

“Is Qin Changmeng here?”

Her cool eyes swept across the room.

The girl who had just been mocking Qin Meng instantly fell silent.

She gaped. “No way… that really is Jiang Yun.”

Others, hearing her name and seeing her face, were stunned.

“It’s really Jiang Yun!!”

“Oh my god, Jiang Yun actually came?!”

“So Qin Changmeng wasn’t lying?”

Everyone watched in disbelief as Jiang Yun walked in, passed through the crowd, and sat down right beside Qin Changmeng in the corner booth.

Everyone was left speechless.

Mei Yu was so excited she didn’t know what to do.

She quickly grabbed a drink and cautiously approached Qin Changmeng and Jiang Yun.

She didn’t dare look directly at the person sitting on the sofa.

That cold aura, that regal gaze.

Was this really Jiang Yun?

“Hey, why did you drag me here?” Jiang Yun sounded annoyed. She didn’t recognize anyone here, except the person in front of her.

Even her, she barely recognized.

“What’s with this look? What did you do to your hair? Is this a new style?” She tugged at the curls on Qin Meng’s head. One touch told her it was a wig.

Qin Meng’s real hair was smooth and shiny. This hair was rough and dry. A cheap wig for sure.

Then there were the black-rimmed glasses, the heavy dark foundation, and the realistic-looking freckles.

Wow, it was really hard on the eyes.

While other celebrities tried to look prettier, she went all out to look ugly.

Qin Meng, who had been trying to recall her connection with Mei Jianxue, was snapped out of it. She glanced around and spotted Mei Yu nearby, staring at them.

She quickly grabbed Jiang Yun’s hand and covered her mouth. Gritting her teeth, she whispered, “Rich Girl, shut your mouth.”

Jiang Yun blinked, confused.

Qin Meng motioned with her mouth, hinting at someone standing nearby. Jiang Yun looked and raised an eyebrow.

But she did not say anything more.

Clearly, Qin Meng had her reasons for this disguise.

And that fake name she used… what was it again? Qin Changmeng?

Wow…
