Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 225
“So you’re the son of Marquis Valdesar.”
Cardinal de Mare greeted first, his expression sour. It wasn’t so much out of proper respect for the son of Marquis Valdesar as it was a desperate urge to restore some order to the chaotic mess in the room—anything to say something and calm things down.
“It’s been quite some time since I last saw you as a child, hasn’t it? Please take a seat over there.”
“I sincerely appreciate Your Eminence’s consideration.”
Raphael sat down with a beaming smile, utterly unfazed despite having just heard a thinly veiled insult calling him a shameless fraud.
Only Ippolito, who’d just been utterly humiliated, lowered his head in confusion, unsure what to do. Anyone witnessing this scene alone would struggle to tell who had hurled the insult and who had received it.
“Thank you for coming, Viscount Valdesar.”
Ariadne bowed her head respectfully toward Raphael. He merely smiled faintly and waved it off with his hand.
“When did we start being so stiff with titles between us, Ari?”
Raphael replied, his eyes crinkling gently with warmth. Ariadne was slightly flustered, but the other two people in the room were far more shaken.
Ippolito seethed inwardly, convinced now that his suspicions were correct. Of course—this shameless bastard was clearly trying to curry favor with our family’s bastard child by selling out his own academy classmate!
Cardinal de Mare, meanwhile, immediately began recalculating his strategy upon hearing Raphael de Valdesar’s confident remark. Is this fellow seriously here to stamp his face as a prospective son-in-law?
Sensing the awkward, charged atmosphere, Ariadne swiftly changed the subject. It was laughable to begin with—sitting Cardinal de Mare and Ippolito down for a serious explanation. No, there was nothing to explain.
“Raphael. I asked you here today—though it’s rather embarrassing—because I wanted to inquire about what happened at the Padua Military Academy.”
“Ah. You mean that incident.”

Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
