"Hey, young man, could you move aside?"
Feeling someone tugging at her clothes, Su Qiao groggily opened her eyes.
A variety of smells suddenly filled her nasal cavity.
An older woman carrying a small bundle stepped past the young woman next to her and tugged at her sleeve.
The young woman's face was pulled long from being jostled, and she grumbled in dissatisfaction.
Su Qiao instinctively protected the package in her arms and slapped the old woman's hand away.
The realistic touch startled her.
The carriage was pale yellow, with windows that looked like they were from years ago. The seats were packed with people, some even sleeping between rows of seats. People wore navy blue or gray jackets, giving the carriage a very vintage feel.
All I could hear was the clanging of trains, interspersed with the occasional calls of chickens, ducks, geese, and the cries of babies.
It's so noisy it's annoying.
How did she end up on the train?
Wasn't she dead?
She watched helplessly as she was engulfed by the flames of the exploding car...
When the old woman saw that she couldn't pull her away, she became furious and pinched Su Qiao's arm hard.
A large area of her fair forearm immediately turned red.
Su Qiao was in so much pain that she questioned the meaning of life, and then suddenly came to her senses.
She's still alive!
He pushed the old woman's hand away.
The old woman paused, not expecting Su Qiao's skin to be so prone to leaving marks.
"Hmph, serves you right for shamelessly taking someone else's spot!"
The young woman sitting next to Su Qiao was furious. The weather was already hot and humid, and this old lady still insisted on squeezing in.
She also didn't want this person to sit next to her.
"Auntie, everyone has bought tickets. There are so many empty seats on the train, just find one. Why make things difficult for a young girl?"
The old woman remained defiant, saying, "I'm old and have been standing for so long. What's wrong with a young girl letting me have my way? I'm almost at my stop, I can just switch back then, right?"
Su Qiao never tolerated such bad habits; one's character depends on the other party.
They decisively confronted the issue.
"Your voice is loud and clear, and you seem to be in good spirits. Where are you old? You've pinched my arm until it's bruised, and you still want my seat? Do you think I'm stupid?"
The old woman still tried to argue her way out of it.
The little girl with two braids across from him smiled and spoke.
"Qiaoqiao, didn't you just say that your back was aching from sitting and that you wanted to get up and walk around? Why did you suddenly change your mind? Oh, I know, you don't like the smell of the old lady, do you?"
The old woman raised her hand and smelled it, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Su Qiao sensed her ill intentions.
Suddenly, a few words flashed through her mind, swirling around in front of her.
She tried to ignore it, but her mouth unconsciously uttered it aloud.
However, his tone was unusually harsh.
"Dong Yiyi, how many times have I told you, you can know a person's face but not their heart. This kind of person is not worth your help."
Su Qiao didn't even have time to cover her mouth before she finished speaking.
Unexpectedly, the girl named Dong Yiyi said affectionately, "You're so old, why are you still so childish? We are all educated youth sent to the countryside, we can't discriminate against older women. You should change your temperament."
After saying that, she invited the old lady to sit in her seat, while she stood in the aisle.
The old lady held Dong Yiyi's hand and praised her highly.
Su Qiao: ...
[Congratulations, host, on completing the time-limited mission. Supporting character Su Qiao's popularity has decreased by 1, and the conquest progress is 1. The host gains 1 point of any physical attribute and triggers a 30-minute silence on Su Qiao.]
[Add points arbitrarily? Then put them all into appearance.]
[Points successfully added. Current appearance points: 6. We hope you will continue your efforts. When your strategy points reach 100 at this stage, the system will upgrade to the second stage: Plunder.]
Su Qiao became more and more confused as she listened.
How well does she like the general public?
Host? System?
Ban her?
plunder?
The internal dialogue continued.
Su Qiao observed carefully and found that Dong Yiyi's lips hadn't moved at all.
[Does the stat boost take effect immediately? Will I be prettier than her?]
Dong Yiyi's gaze swept over Su Qiao's face, a flash of jealousy crossing her eyes.
Of course. Once you've been fully transformed, you'll definitely be perfectly suited for the role of the female lead. Becoming the most beautiful woman in this world is entirely possible if you so desire.
I really want to see my face now.
Almost simultaneously, Dong Yiyi moved a few steps, glancing intentionally or unintentionally at the reflection in the window.
Su Qiao witnessed firsthand how Dong Yiyi's skin tone visibly whitened, as if a filter had been applied, instantly elevating her appearance to a whole new level.
Su Qiao: I think I heard something incredible!
An announcement came over the loudspeaker that the train had arrived at the next station.
A few more people came up.
The person opposite just got off the bus.
Dong Yiyi didn't move. A man in a white shirt, with a scholarly air about him, strode towards them.
I sat down next to the old lady.
The man sat down, and the old woman's eyes lit up; she was about to say something.
As the train started moving, Dong Yiyi, who was standing next to him, suddenly lost her balance and fell headfirst into the man's arms.
After staring at each other for a few seconds, both of them blushed. Dong Yiyi hurriedly got up and apologized softly.
The man waved his hand good-naturedly.
Su Qiao touched her chin, feeling as if she had seen this scene before.
The old lady next to her seemed to have been stepped on, exclaiming, "What kind of person is this! Why do they always try to get into other people's arms!" She completely forgot about the "kindness of giving up her seat" just now.
Tears welled up in Dong Yiyi's eyes, threatening to fall, her voice trembling.
“My legs just gave way, it wasn’t intentional. What you said, ma’am, is so hurtful. This comrade and I are completely innocent. What are you trying to do by slandering me like this? I shouldn’t have felt sorry for your hard work and given you my seat…”
Upon hearing this, the man immediately upheld justice.
The old woman mumbled a few words, then, as if remembering something, she picked up her small bundle and quickly left the carriage.
Dong Yiyi naturally returned to her original position.
Su Qiao raised an eyebrow. This old lady…
The man took the initiative to introduce himself: "Hello, my name is Pei Xingzhi, and I am an educated youth who went to the countryside."
Dong Yiyi gave a knowing look and said, "I'm also an educated youth. My name is Dong Yiyi." Then, as if she suddenly realized something, she pointed at Su Qiao and said, "Her name is Su Qiao. We both came from S City."
Pei Xingzhi glanced at Su Qiao quickly before looking away.
Dong Yiyi immediately became interested.
"We're going to Qingshui Brigade, what about you?"
"Me too."
Pei Xingzhi was surprised by the coincidence, and now he was in the mood to talk, and the two chatted enthusiastically.
Su Qiao's eyelids twitched twice.
etc!
Dong Yiyi and Pei Xingzhi, aren't those the male and female protagonists of the historical romance novel she read the night before the car accident?
She transmigrated into a book?
Thinking of the fate of the female supporting character with the same name in the book, Su Qiao was speechless with emotion.
Not long after the female supporting character was sent to the countryside, her appearance was completely disfigured, she suffered a mental breakdown, and was nearly bullied. She struggled to escape but fell off a cliff in her panic and died. When everyone realized what was happening and looked for her, half of her body was gone…
If the female supporting character were an utterly wicked person, that would be one thing.
But she just happens to be someone who speaks her mind directly.
He once said something that inadvertently touched on the female lead's fragile self-esteem.
From then on, the female lead no longer regarded the female supporting character as a good friend, but as a mere tool.
Under the female lead's deliberate guidance, the female supporting character, who was originally just a bit taciturn, was transformed in everyone's eyes into a vicious female supporting character who constantly pestered the female lead, made things difficult for her, embarrassed her, and ruined her relationships.
After the female supporting character died, the female lead, fearing that the female supporting character's family would find out something, took the opportunity to frame the Su family.
The Su family was soon destroyed and its members died tragically...
Su Qiao is now on the train to the countryside, which means that she has already said the things that offended the female lead.
She's now running headlong down the road to death.
Su Qiao: Sorrow—
