Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

CHAPTER 8

In the later half of the night, there was a sudden commotion downstairs. It became noisier after someone started banging on the door.

Shi Sheng sat up, scowling. Qian Li was still burrowed in his corner by the window. Seeing Shi Sheng move, he immediately went over to her and stared at her finger. ‘Bloody hell, he still wants to eat!’

Shi Sheng resigned herself to giving the future Zombie Emperor his ‘milk’ before combing through her hair in frustration and heading to the door, sword in hand. Qian Li followed for a couple of steps when he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and slowly retreated back to the window.

Shi Sheng stood at the door and listened for a bit. Though there was a commotion, there weren’t any shrieks, so it was unlikely that someone had turned into a zombie. Shi Sheng pulled open the door.

The object the person outside was using to smash at the door hadn’t managed to hit anything. In the darkness, this woman only saw a human shadow standing there, causing her to cry out in alarm and retreat hastily.

Her cry caused the other people to head over. Someone formed a fireball and tossed it towards Shi Sheng. That person seemed to have only created it as a source of light for the fireball stopped a meter away from Shi Sheng, allowing everyone to see her clearly.

“It’s a person… scared me to death. Thought it was a zombie.”

“Didn’t they say there were people staying on the third floor already? Yet you wanted to go and bash at their door, look what you’ve gotten yourself into now.”

“Well, we were worried…”

“Worried about what? Zhao Yan, don’t think we don’t know what you’re really thinking!”

They started bickering again, causing Shi Sheng to rub her aching forehead and snap grumpily, “What do you guys want?”

‘Having the strength to argue in the middle of the night… Just how bored are these people?’

“If you people still have space upstairs, let us in!” The woman who had thrown the fireball earlier spoke out arrogantly.

The people here were clearly separated into three different factions. One of them was headed by the woman, Zhao Yan, while another was made up of people opposing Zhao Yan. The rest were those who were keeping themselves out of this matter or were too busy sobbing in despair to care. There were also those who wanted to complain about all the noise, but no one dared to stand out to say anything.

Zhao Yan was one of the more important female villains in the novel. She was the daughter of Zhao Jing’s uncle. Zhao Jing was the male lead’s competent assistant and the driver of the car Shi Sheng had boarded. His uncle had instructed him before his death to find Zhao Yan and protect her.

Zhao Jing had been raised by this uncle of his, so of course he would want to repay this debt. The convoy had met Zhao Yan on the road to B City so naturally, he took special care of her.

But this Zhao Yan coveted Song Shi for his looks. Hence she disliked Qi Mingxue, who Song Shi looked well upon. In the end, she turned into a zombie and was killed personally by Zhao Jing. Zhao Jing’s ending wasn’t good either.

That Zhao Yan was here now meant she hadn’t met up with Zhao Jing and his teammates. Shi Sheng only took a few seconds to process all this information as she continued leaning against the door, her arms crossed over her chest. “Why should I let you in?”

‘If it hadn’t been for the sake of those Nuclei, I wouldn’t have let anyone in. Yet now they want to take a mile after getting an inch?’
