From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!

Su Jiameng did extensive research on the Shangguan Family because of this clue. This group is completely pro-war and unimpressed by any non-human clans. If anyone in the family dared to have an interracial relationship, they would be crippled and expelled from the family!

The enmity between the Mermaid Alliance and the Shangguan Family has a long history. Unless their minds suddenly change, there is no way they would allow a descendant of both humans and mermaids in their family! Yet, they’ve been indulging that monster so much that almost every mistake she made upon arriving at Qiming Star was covered up.

Connecting this with some of the clues from her investigation and current reality, Su Jiameng’s eyes brewed with coldness.

The Shangguan Family would never accept any child with mermaid blood, so... what if someone had the audacity to swap a Shangguan child with one who had mermaid blood a hundred years ago? Though the gene sequence is an issue, what are research institutes for? It’s practically professional and easy to deceive everyone in this regard!

The rules in grand families might be many, but they aren’t insane enough to constantly check the gene sequences of every family member! So, if that research institute helps the impostor conceal their identity once or twice, they can pretty much package him as the ’real deal’!

”Truth will ultimately come to light,” Su Jiameng toyed with Huaifeng’s hair, tied at the back of his head. The little guy had seven or eight stitches on his scalp, and a patch of his hair was shaved off, leaving a bald spot. ”Whether he’s a legitimate branch of the Augustus Shangguan family or the illegitimate daughter from the lower family, having hurt my son, it won’t be so easily resolved!”

Zhu Mengtong adjusted her glasses, hiding all emotions behind the lenses, ”The opponent is nobility from Augustus; if you clash, you’ll end up suffering losses. Why break eggs on a rock unnecessarily... if possible, it’s better to make peace.”

”It’s not my nature to let a loss go unavenged!” Su Jiameng gritted her teeth. She could endure grievances or tolerate for certain purposes, but she absolutely couldn’t bear harm to her closest kin! Her belief is to ’protect’. If she can’t protect those who should be protected the most, she might as well bang her head against tofu and die. ”I can’t move against the Shangguan Family, but...”

”But? But what?” Su Jiameng said indignantly, a sinister voice with a chuckle echoed from behind.

Su Jiameng and her companions looked towards the sound and found a young man dressed in casual attire, accompanied by a cute little girl. Huaifeng whispered in her ear, ”Mom, that’s the ugly monster...”

Su Jiameng, with her telekinesis now restored to Level Eight, could discern certain disguises even without using it.

The girl exuded such a strong sense of discord; it was impossible to ignore. Su Jiameng handed Huaifeng to Changxi and hugged Xihe tighter, replying lazily, ”However, taking down a few insignificant pests isn’t a problem!”

These words wiped the smile off the young man’s face completely, who coldly asked, ”Who are you referring to as pests?”

”Why ask...” Ignoring his skyrocketing spiritual power, Su Jiameng swiftly drew Xihe without even a greeting and appeared behind the man in an instant, Xihe pressed against his heart.

”Why ask if it’s just self-humiliation? Despite the Shangguan Family’s noble status, you’re raising such a lawless monster that harms others everywhere...”

Su Jiameng could tell this man wasn’t the one she was looking for.

”Ling’er is just a child over seven. Calling her a monster is bullying.” Su Jiameng’s skills were frighteningly fast, so much so that the man didn’t react at all, and his life was already in someone else’s hands. ”Do you really think the Shangguan Family is empty-handed?”

”Oh, so there are still people in the Shangguan Family...” Su Jiameng said sarcastically, implying a double meaning, ”As the saying goes, when the young one gets beaten, the older one comes. My son was bullied; naturally, I, as his mother, have to come forward. But I’m not interested in dealing with ill-bred girls, so I naturally come after the adults. Or would you prefer I stoop down to deal with her?”

The girl had already dodged when Su Jiameng attacked, her pair of big eyes gleaming with malice, secretly contacting her parents. She was originally brought by her uncle to apologize to those two brats, but she considered herself a princess of the Shangguan Family, above everyone, the precious darling in her parents’ eyes. How could two ordinary kids deserve her apology?

Let alone just getting a little hurt, even if they died, it would be worthless. She is the Shangguan Family’s princess!

The man paused for a moment, then asked with slight suspicion, ”May I ask, is this lady Su Jiameng?”

Su Jiameng chuckled softly, a dangerous glint in her eyes, ”Seems like you’ve done your homework, knowing my name.”

”Gu Ningxuan told me...” The man said something surprising, leaving Su Jiameng momentarily confused, though her guard was not lowered. ”He hoped that while I’m here on Qiming Star, I would somewhat take care of you and your kids... I didn’t expect such an unpleasant situation before I’ve even started fulfilling my friend’s request.”

Su Jiameng inwardly rolled her eyes. So, when unable to win a fight, they play the emotion card? She appreciated Gu Ningxuan’s goodwill but that doesn’t mean she’d feel any favor toward this man in front of her. If he had declared his identity from the start, she might have given him some respect.

”It’s just fate.” Su Jiameng said, ”If the Shangguan Family is not lacking in Credit Points, I suggest you have the gene sequences measured collectively again... This is a piece of advice I’m specially giving because you know Gu Ningxuan.” (To be continued.
