Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

CHAPTER 16-20

Shi Sheng returned to the Academy. Since she was wary of Bu Jingyun running off, she brought him along with her. Thus, the already famous Shi Sheng became even more famous.

But she continued causing all sorts of trouble, making the Academy wish they could simply expel her. However, she still had the Shen Clan’s backing. Without any statements saying otherwise from the Shen Clan, she was their one and only Eldest Young Miss. If the Academy just directly expelled her, they risked offending the Shen Clan.

“Miss! Miss!” While Shi Sheng and Bu Jingyun were strolling together on a little pathway on Academy grounds, someone suddenly ran up to her.

Shi Sheng thought the voice sounded familiar, so she turned to have a look. ‘Yep, I knew I heard that voice before. It’s Shen Jin.’

“What?” Shi Sheng’s tone wasn’t very pleasant.

Shen Jin came to a stop right in front of her, panting a bit as he spoke, “Miss, there’s a banquet being hosted by the Shen Clan in three days. You must return to the clan immediately.”

Ever since the incident with the FL from last time, Shen Jin rarely got to see Shi Sheng. She hardly ever returned to the Shen Clan, and even when she did, she primarily kept to herself. Her attitude was completely different from before.

Shen Jin stood before her, feeling slightly afraid. He couldn’t help but adopt a more respectful tone.

“Banquet? What banquet?”

‘It’s not the one I’m(bbb) thinking about, is it?’

“The Hundred Clans Gathering. It’s the Shen Clan’s turn to host it this year. Miss, as the Shen Clan’s eldest direct daughter, your attendance is mandatory.”

The Hundred Clans Gathering.

Contrary to the name, it wasn’t a gathering of a hundred clans. Instead, it was a gathering of all the famous and influential clans in the Nine Provinces. Although its purpose is unknown, it existed nonetheless.

‘No wonder everyone appeared to be so busy the last time I returned. Seems like they were making preparations for the banquet.’

These sorts of gatherings tended to be riddled with traps. Shi Sheng planned to simply spectate Qin Langyue. And possibly cause a bit of trouble on the side.

On the day of the gathering, Shi Sheng brought Bu Jingyun back to the Shen Clan with her.

Unsurprisingly, her actions of late had caused the Shen Clan to be disappointed in her. No one treated her with much respect. Even Shen Yaoguang’s parents appeared to be upset with her.

“Yaoguang, how could you bring a man back?” Mother Shen looked rather young and possessed some resemblance to Shen Yaoguang. If the two stood side-by-side, practically no one would think that the two were mother and daughter.

The moment Mother Shen saw Bu Jingyun was accompanying Shi Sheng, her expression darkened. She pulled Shi Sheng aside, where no one else could listen in on their conversation, before speaking, “You’re the direct daughter of the Shen Clan. How could you keep company with random men? You represent the Shen Clan’s reputation! You know how many people are keeping their eyes on you… Get rid of that man at once!”

Mother Shen only had one daughter, Shen Yaoguang. Even though Shen Yaoguang enjoyed the status of the direct daughter of the Shen Clan, she was unable to inherit the clan in the future. If Shen Yaoguang had not possessed such exceptional talent, Mother Shen’s days would’ve been much tougher.

Naturally, Mother Shen couldn’t just watch as her precious protective talisman escaped her grasp.

Shi Sheng remained silent.
