Yun Luo transmigrated, becoming the cannon fodder older brother who opposed the universally adored younger brother in an interstellar novel. Facing his family's dislike, the pitifully charming ...
No one expected that Yun Luo would refuse so decisively. The servants working in the garden had been paying attention to the movements here. When they heard Yun Luo's words, they subconsciously put down their work and pricked up their ears to listen to the movements here.
These people had all worked in the Duke's Mansion for a period of time, and they knew something about the past grievances between the three. They had previously heard that Duke Oren was going to take Yun Luo back, and they were curious about what the young master had done to make Duke Oren change his mind. When the people came back, these people discovered that Yun Luo was very different now.
It is no exaggeration to say that they are like two different people.
Although they didn't dare to discuss anything openly, they still discussed it privately. They were all very curious about what had happened during the time they went to Somir Star that caused Yun Luo to change so much.
They also heard about Lingsheng Tower, and it was privately rumored that Lingsheng Tower was left to Yun Luo by the late Madam, just for this day. But these were just speculations, and they had no way of guessing the truth.
The servants were the best at reading people's moods and acting accordingly. Ever since word leaked out from above that the Duke was going to bring Yun Luo back, some people had secretly speculated whether the Duchess and the young master were going to lose power. The more time went by, the more convinced they became of this idea.
The real owner of the Duke's Mansion will always be Duke Oli. Whether others can gain power depends mainly on Duke Oren. Yun Luo hasn't come back yet, and the Duchess has been grounded several times for this matter. There are too many problems that can be explained here.
People with more thoughts have begun to re-evaluate the two young masters of the Duke's Mansion. They originally thought that the young master was sure to win, but who would have thought that the eldest master Yun Luo would one day turn the tide and return in an even stronger posture.
Look, now it's not just Duke Oren, even Major General Tairen, who was already so fascinated by the young master that he lost his way, changed his attitude when he saw Yun Luo.
Until the last moment, you will never know who the real winner will be.
No one cares how those who have stood in line early regret it now, and Yun Luo doesn't care what these people in the mansion think. He has no intention of living in the Duke's Mansion permanently. Except for the things that belong to the original owner's mother, Yun Luo will not touch anything else in the Duke's Mansion.
As Yun Luo finished speaking, Holmes felt as if his heart was hit by a heavy hammer. He knew that he had caused great harm to Yun Luo in the past, and he did not hold out much hope of renewing their relationship. He just wanted to make up for the mistakes he had made. He never expected that Yun Luo seemed unwilling to even give him such a chance.
The light in Holmes' eyes dimmed little by little. All he saw in Yun Luo's eyes was impatience, without even a bit of the tenderness he had in the past. In the end, he had lost the beautiful young man who had looked up to him with admiration.
"I... I'm sorry," he said, and the rest of the words flowed smoothly. "I know the damage has been done, and there's no point in saying it now, but I still want to say that I was wrong before, and I will make amends..."
Hill listened from the side, his expression growing increasingly grim. Every word Holmes said seemed to slap him in the face. Hill couldn't explain what he felt. Embarrassed? No, more than that. He had never felt time was so difficult to endure as it was now. If possible, he wished he hadn't caught up.
Throughout the whole process, Yun Luo just listened with a blank expression, not being moved at all. Seeing him like this, Holmes' heart sank.
"Are you done?" Seeing Holmes stop, Yun Luo said lightly, "Can I leave now if you're done?"
"I..." Holmes wanted to ask, do you really not care about everything in the past? What about the love you once showed for me, was it also fake? Why are you so cruel that you don't even give me a chance to make amends?
Yun Luo seemed to know what he was thinking and interrupted him. "Mr. Tailun, I think there's nothing more to say between us now. Back then, you wanted to break off the engagement and even resorted to such methods to force me into agreeing. And now, not long after this incident, you're telling me you regret it? What are you trying to say?"
Holmes was speechless. He himself didn't know what he wanted to do. When he heard Yun Luo talk about breaking off the engagement, all the color drained from his face.
At that time, Yun Luo's reputation was already very bad. He could not go to school at all. If he went there, he would be besieged by people. Those people were vicious and had one way of torturing people after another, and it was impossible for people from the outside to tell. It was at that time that he found out that his fiancé was having an affair with his half-brother.
"I still remember that day, right here, you hugged Hill and told me to be smart and not to dream about things I shouldn't. You said that the one you truly loved from the beginning to the end was Hill, and you told me not to harbor fantasies I shouldn't have. So, now you're telling me you loved the wrong person? Does that mean I deserve everything I went through back then?"
Yun Luo has the original owner's memories and is influenced by the original owner's residual soul. He can clearly feel the original owner's despair. Holmes's behavior at the time was like the last straw that broke the camel's back for the original owner.
He is not expected by anyone and is not liked by anyone.
"I don't think there's anything to talk about between us. What do you think, Major General Terran?"
Leaving the two behind, Yun Luo left without mercy. Perhaps affected by the original owner's mood, he now felt annoyed when he saw these two people.
Holmes looked at Yun Luo leaving, pain welling up in his eyes.
Yes, the harm he caused to Yun Luo was already great enough, so how could he dare to hope for his forgiveness? He said it was atonement, but it was just selfish of him. Yun Luo probably didn't want to see him for a moment, but he kept getting closer to Yun Luo just to make himself feel better.
After standing there for a while, Holmes ignored Hill's call from behind and strode away.
He is now a little more sober. Once his rationality returns, the purpose behind some things can no longer be hidden. For example, why did Hill come to him at this time, and why did he appear so coincidentally in the place where Yun Luo would pass by? Going back a little further, were the things that happened at the beginning really just an accident?
Everything in the dream was artificially designed. Although the course of events in reality was different from that in the dream, everything was the same except Yun Luo returning to the Imperial Star. So, were the previous events also specially designed by someone?
As soon as he left the Duke's Mansion, Holmes contacted his subordinates and asked them to investigate what had happened before, focusing on those related to Hill. He wanted to see how many hidden secrets there were that he didn't know.
Hill didn't know that this time he not only shot himself in the foot, but also made Holmes doubt what happened before. He stood there, feeling the vague gazes from all around him falling on him, and he felt extremely anxious.
These people are probably laughing at themselves.
Hill lowered his head and clenched his teeth. No, he couldn't just let it go. He had to find a way, yes, a way. He must never let Yun Luo climb over his head again.
Yun Luo originally wanted to go out for a walk, but the protagonist and the original owner's ex-fiancé ruined her mood.
[Host, there's something wrong with Holmes Tyron's magnetic field fluctuations.] 007 saw that Yun Luo was in a bad mood and wanted to find something to distract the host.
[Hmm? What do you mean?] Yun Luo was indeed interested in this.
Compared to the average person, he possesses a certain aura that shouldn't be there, as if it were the traces left by time.
"You mean, he's been reborn?" Yun Luo raised an eyebrow. "If that's the case, Holmes's unusual behavior today can be explained. I hope he doesn't like the protagonist in the plot. Judging from his behavior just now, it doesn't seem like he likes the protagonist."
It's not quite the same as rebirth; it's more like receiving some hints about the future through some method. As for what the host said, the original plot is just one of many possible future developments. Any unexpected situation could change this future. Perhaps what Holmes knows is the plot of another parallel universe. 007 explained.
Just like now, because of the arrival of the host, the development of this world has deviated from its original track. The so-called future is always uncertain. Even the top fortune tellers cannot ensure that the results of their divinations will definitely happen in the future. They can only say that there is a high possibility of it happening.
007 can only detect traces left from different time and space on Holmes, and cannot clearly detect which future those traces came from.
Hill went to see the Duchess with a lot of anger. He knew that the Duchess had some power in her hands. He couldn't let Yun Luo go on. Holmes had already become suspicious. If he really found out anything, judging by his guilty attitude towards Yun Luo today, what would be waiting for him would definitely not be a good result.
Even for his own sake, he would never allow such a situation to happen.
"Why are you here with your mother again? From childhood to adulthood, I have never seen you so clingy as you are now." The Duchess was still very happy to see her son.
"Mother, I came to see you because I have something to tell you."
The Duchess glanced at Hill's expression, paused, and waved the servants around to leave. After everyone left, she asked, "What happened? You look so bad."
Hill told the story that had just happened in the garden with a deep look in his eyes.
The Duchess's face turned very bad when she heard this.
"Mother, we have to find a way. We can't go on like this. Yun Luo is too unpredictable."
The Duchess knew this, but Duke Oren had been keeping a close eye on her during this period, so she had to be extra careful in everything she did.
Touching Hill's soft hair, the Duchess's eyes were cold: "Don't worry, mother won't give him the chance to become a roadblock to you. Just leave this matter to mother. How are you doing with the preparations I asked you to make before?"
"Don't worry, mother. I'm ready." Speaking of this, Hill's originally angry expression changed, and his cheeks quickly turned red. This time it was not anger, but shame.
"Good boy, as long as this thing can be accomplished, why are you still worried about Yun Luo? No matter how he jumps around, he can't shake you. I heard that he has returned to the Imperial Star. This time, our plan will definitely not fail!"
His Majesty, who was far away in the palace, suddenly felt a chill on his back and his voice suddenly stopped.
The officials below looked up in confusion: "Your Majesty, do you have any ideas?"
The author has something to say: There will be three more chapters! Wait for me!
