Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

s to prepare.”

“Guest? Who?”

The maid shook her head innocently.
“Don’t know.”

Shi Sheng made to leave the castle and just so happened to bump into Ke Er.

“Godfather, you have guests.” Shi Sheng obediently addressed him.

Ke Er’s expression was a bit cold.
One could tell how bad his mood was when it didn’t lighten up even upon seeing Shi Sheng.
He harrumphed coldly, “Didn’t you say there was someone impersonating you? Well apparently, we’ll be having visitors today.”

Shi Sheng blinked and soon understood what he was trying to convey.
The woman who was impersonating her was about to arrive.

But…

“Godfather, don’t be angry.
Let’s see what she wants.”

Ke Er ruffled Shi Sheng’s hair.
How could he be unable to tell whether or not the daughter he’d raised for so long was a fake?

Around noon, a car arrived from the outside as expected.
Ke Er had ordered for only the calm and composed servants to show themselves and for the rest to hide themselves.

As a result, the cute and livelier maids ended up jostling together in Shi Sheng’s room.

“Yah, does she really resemble Her Ladyship?”

“Milady, what do you think she’s up to?”

“Her Ladyship is a Pure Blood—she has a signet ring that represents her status and it can’t be duplicated.
Let’s see what the impostor has to say about that!”

The maids went into an avid discussion.

Shi Sheng leaned against the window.
From her vantage point, she could see the person below had already entered the castle.
Even the woman’s clothing was similar to hers—a regular person wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the two of them.

“Milady, milady, hurry up! We wanna go take a look!” The maids opened the door and beckoned Shi Sheng over.

“What’s so nice to look at? I’m standing right here for you to admire, isn’t that enough?” Shi Sheng raised a brow, a hint of wickedness appearing on her face.

The maids covered their mouths with their hands and laughed.
“Your Ladyship, you’re about to catch up to Lord Rui Yi in narcissism.”

“Are you saying I don’t look good?”

“No, no, of course not! Milady looks are the best!” The maids all reached an accord on this. ‘Our Ladyship is really beautiful!’

In the end, Shi Sheng conceded to this group of maids who had lived several centuries—yet had curiosity rivalling that of newborns—they went to go observe the imposter together.

Ke Er was waiting in the guest hall of the castle.
Shi Sheng and the girls were located on the corner of the second floor, where they could see what was happening downstairs, but the people downstairs couldn’t see them.

Ke Er sat on the lord’s seat as he gazed expressionlessly at the woman in front of him.

Ling Xiang’s hand, that was resting on her thigh, clenched slightly.
She tentatively called out, “Godfather…”

Bang! Ke Er angrily slammed his hand down on the table, “So you know how to come back.”

Ling Xiang’s body shook. ‘Wasn’t it said Prince Ke Er doted on Mi Nai a lot? What’s going on now??? Could it be he’s upset because Mi Nai left the territories?’

Ling Xiang calmed down.
Lowering her head, she expressed remorsefully, “Godfather, this child was unfilial.
Don’t be angry.”

Ke Er harrumphed coldly with a stern expression, “Do you know how much damage you caused when you fled the marriage?”

‘Fleeing from a marriage? What? Can’t understand… Master never told me about this!

But… Ke Er wouldn’t randomly say things, right? Could it be that this was a private arrangement, so outsiders wouldn’t be aware? I suppose it’s rather possible.
After all, Mi Nai was his adopted daughter not his blood daughter.’

Ling Xiang’s imagination filled in the gaps, making her think she’d stumbled upon the truth.

Her reason for coming here was to obtain Ke Er’s trust.
If she didn’t respond, she’d raise suspicion, so Ling Xiang could only grit her teeth and reply, “Godfather, I know I let you down.
But this concerns my lifetime’s happiness.
I had to fight for it…”

Ke Er’s expression turned even colder.

Meanwhile, the group of eavesdroppers upstairs were fighting to hold back their laughter. ‘His Grace sure knows how to dupe people! What kind of engagement could Her Ladyship have? If Lord Rui Yi and His Grace had anything to say about it, they’d want to keep her in this castle forever!’
