I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character CH.37
Chapter 37: This guy’s a wolf exterminator
Su Ming was genuinely angry.
He could have ignored the little scuffles before, but this time, he couldn’t take it anymore.
Xu Qianqian and An Zijin could be at odds with each other like this, but to completely ignore him and act as if he didn’t exist while still trying to get him involved in their conflict was too much. Su Ming had no choice but to lose his temper.
So, he didn’t care about anything else and flipped the table right on the spot.
“Do you think you’re so high and mighty? Do you think you’re so amazing just because you’re the campus beauties?”
“Yes, you have fans everywhere. He’s just a man, where can’t you find one?”
“You also have the capital to make others revolve around you and do whatever you want.”
“I don’t care if your methods are right or wrong, I don’t care what you want to do, but don’t drag me into it!”
Su Ming cursed out the two beautiful campus beauties in front of everyone.
“I’m not your tool to cause conflict. I’m not someone you can touch and get close to when you want to, then push away when you want to cause trouble!”
“You want to fight?”
“You want to duel?”
“Sure!”
“Go secretly find a place to settle it yourselves. Don’t put me in the middle of your fight and use me as an excuse!”
Su Ming’s angry voice filled the entire cabin.
Everyone stared at Su Ming in shock, including Xu Qianqian and An Zijin.
“Su-Big Brother Su Ming?” An Zijin’s Inner Mode disappeared, as if Su Ming’s anger had jolted her awake. She suddenly looked pitiful and weak.
Xu Qianqian also looked stunned, staring at Su Ming. She had never expected Su Ming to scold her like this.
As for the rest of the people, they were even more shocked. They couldn’t believe that someone in this world would dare scold Xu Qianqian and An Zijin.
Su Ming didn’t react to this and only let out a breath.
“I’m tired. I’m going to sleep. Don’t bother me.”
Su Ming sat back down as if he had lost interest in everything. He pulled out a pair of eye masks from his backpack and put one on, then fell asleep with his arms crossed.
Xu Qianqian and An Zijin looked at Su Ming in this state, both of them at a loss for words.
The rest of the people in the train car were silent for a while before they finally began to speak up.
“That guy’s a real man.”
That was right.
In the eyes of these people, Su Ming had already become a real man.
“I respect him.”
“He’s definitely the first person in history to dare curse at Xu Qianqian and An Zijin like this, right?”
“He’s quite the character.”
People began to whisper amongst themselves.
Clearly, Su Ming’s actions had won over these people.
Even Lei Hao and Ye Bai exchanged a glance and gave each other a bitter smile.
Yao Beibei and Jiang Wanyu shrank into themselves, looking helpless and weak.
The entire train car was once again filled with silence, but this time it wasn’t eerie.
The train ride from the city centre to Hua Ming District took approximately three hours.
During these three hours, some people slept, some people chatted, and some people browsed forums and killed time by posting as usual.
Thanks to this, Su Ming’s outburst at Xu Qianqian and An Zijin became the top news of the day.
“No way? Xu Qianqian and An Zijin got scolded?”
“Su Ming is too harsh, isn’t he?”
“Did he really scold such pretty goddesses?”
“Isn’t he so rude?”
The netizens said whatever they wanted. Without knowing the whole story, they naturally said whatever they wanted without any reservations.
However, some blind people noticed something.
“Shouldn’t we be paying attention to Xu Qianqian running into another coach to find Su Ming?”
“Top students have better first-class seats. Why didn’t Xu Qianqian take the top student coach and instead ran into the general student coach to find Su Ming?”
“She even got into a fight with An Zijin.”
“Wish I was there.”
“Same. Two goddesses fighting, it’s too exciting.”
The blind students who had noticed the trending topic began to discuss it on the spot.
The commotion they caused made it seem as if these people were still in the academy instead of on their way to the battlefield.
This showed how much this incident was being paid attention to.
Of course, it wasn’t surprising.
In this era of information overload, even an ordinary person getting into a conflict on a train could be recorded and uploaded to the internet. Never mind the conflict between someone like Su Ming, Xu Qianqian, and An Zijin.
If this wasn’t the time for the expedition, and if making too much of a commotion would have resulted in punishment, many of these people would have probably run over to Su Ming’s carriage to watch.
Of course, the people in that carriage had displayed excellent skills in posting comments.
“I’m at the scene. I’m already dumbfounded.”
“Nothing to say. Su Ming is a real man.”
“The goddesses are fighting over him, but he’s spitting out lotus mist at them.”
“If it was me…”
“Up there, first of all, you don’t have a goddess by your side, and second, goddesses won’t fight over you.”
“Like a pricking iron,isn’t it”
Amidst the commotion, Su Ming fell asleep.
He had already been sleep-deprived to begin with, and now he had been angered by this. Even Su Ming felt exhausted, both physically and mentally.
Thankfully, no one disturbed him this time.
Su Ming slept the entire way until he heard a faint announcement from the speakers and was shaken awake.
“Big Brother Su Ming, Big Brother Su Ming.”
A familiar and timid voice woke Su Ming up.
“What? We’re at the stop?”
Su Ming finally took off his eye mask and opened his eyes in confusion.
The first thing he saw was Yao Beibei and Jiang Wanyu sitting across from him, not saying a word. They looked a little nervous.
Then Su Ming was surprised to find that An Zijin wasn’t the only one beside him. Xu Qianqian was also quietly sitting next to him.
“Big Brother Su Ming, we’re at the stop.”
An Zijin said in a small voice, her expression filled with caution, as if she was afraid.
“We’re here already?” Su Ming stretched lazily and shot a glance at Xu Qianqian. “So you didn’t go back?”
“Mm-hmm.” Xu Qianqian nodded lightly and turned to look at Su Ming. “You’re not mad anymore?”
There was also a hint of caution in her voice.
Su Ming felt a strange sensation.
He never thought that Miss Xu would actually be afraid of others getting mad at her.
Of course, Su Ming wouldn’t say this out loud.
“I’m not mad anymore.” Su Ming said this expressionlessly, then stood up. “Since we’ve arrived, let’s go.”
“Okay!” An Zijin nodded repeatedly.
Yao Beibei and Jiang Wanyu also got up and quickly packed their luggage as if they had been released from prison.
Lei Hao and Ye Bai seemed to have already packed their luggage. They walked up from behind and gave Su Ming a strange look.
Su Ming ignored them and took his luggage, then got off the train with everyone else.
Xu Qianqian silently followed Su Ming off the train as well, showing no intention of returning to the top student car.
Thus, all the students got off the train.
A battle awaited them up ahead.
Longyao City, Hua Ming District.
When the base city’s detection department detected that the entrance to the Spiritual Demon Prison was about to appear here, they had sealed off the area and forbidden any unauthorised persons from entering.
Longyao Base City had already designated Hua Ming District as a major disaster area and evacuated all the residents, taking them to other areas to seek refuge.
Three days had passed since the detection department detected that the entrance to the Spiritual Demon Prison was about to appear here, and the base city decided to evacuate people and seal off Hua Ming District.
During these three days, although not all the residents had been evacuated, more than half of them had.
Therefore, it was no longer possible to see ordinary residents in Hua Ming District. The only things visible were military vehicles driving around and soldiers running back and forth, busy building up the front lines.
Armed helicopters flew in the sky.
A sombre atmosphere filled the ground.
This place had already become a military base, a battlefield.
The students of the Demon-Hunting Academy, led by their instructors, left the already-blockaded train station and prepared to head to the residential area that the Base City had arranged for them.
Su Ming’s group was also mixed in with the crowd, but everyone unconsciously kept a distance from them, making their group stand out.
“Those guys.”
Su Ming was a little displeased. After all, he really didn’t want to stand out as someone who had sworn to become a Minor character.
But the truth was, it was indeed a wise choice for the bystanders to keep their distance from Su Ming and his group.
Soon, someone barged into Su Ming’s group.
“So you’re here, Qianqian.”
A handsome and very noticeable upperclassman arrived with a group of people behind him.
Su Ming’s heart skipped a beat at this sight.
Yao Beibei and Jiang Wanyu were both a little excited.
“Senior Li Wei!”
“The Hunter Division’s chief!”
The person was indeed the Hunter Division’s chief, the strongest hunter in the academy, Li Wei of the fourth year.
“Senior Li Wei.”
Lei Hao quickly bowed to Li Wei. As a student of the Hunter Division, he naturally had some respect for the division’s chief.
“Hello.”
Li Wei nodded at Lei Hao and the others, then shifted his gaze to Xu Qianqian.
“Senior.”
Xu Qianqian gave a light nod to Li Wei. She didn’t show the same level of respect as the other students of the Hunter Division.
“Qianqian.” Li Wei’s attitude toward Xu Qianqian was extremely gentle. “So you ran off here, huh? I’ve been looking for you.”
This attitude was clearly different from how he treated others.
Su Ming confirmed it.
This senior was just as the rumours said: he was pursuing Xu Qianqian.
