Chapter 303 Taking Advantage of Someone's Downfall

Although Sun Linrui said this, he was actually overjoyed. Over the years, the Sun family had always been admired by the world, and he had naturally become accustomed to being flattered.

Especially since the second son of the Duke of Anguo's family has also come today.

This Luo Hao used to be very arrogant in front of him. Although he wasn't the heir apparent, he could always outdo him.

Now that Luo Hao has lost his chance to inherit the title due to the Emperor's displeasure, Sun Linrui naturally wants to find an opportunity to vent his anger over the years.

But as soon as he finished speaking and looked at Luo Hao triumphantly, Luo Hao was nowhere to be seen in that spot.

The sense of accomplishment that had just risen within Sun Linrui instantly diminished by more than half. Somewhat displeased, he said, "Everyone is drinking tea, but where is Young Master Luo?"

As soon as Sun Linrui said this, everyone present turned their attention to Luo Hao's seat.

"I remember Young Master Luo was here just now, how come he disappeared all of a sudden?"

The young man sitting next to Luo Hao spoke first, and then the others echoed him.

"I'm afraid Young Master Luo is in a bad mood and has gone somewhere to clear his head!"

A mocking voice rang out, its tone brimming with disdain for Luo Hao. If Luo Hao used to be so sophisticated, now he was utterly pathetic.

The son of a duke, who was disliked by the emperor, was now freed from confinement and allowed to move around freely. However, those who had previously fawned over him turned against him and started kicking him while he was down.

Some people felt more sympathy for Luo Hao upon hearing this, but Sun Linrui found it to be quite reasonable.

Luo Hao is no match for him now, so you can imagine how disappointed he must be. He's probably hiding somewhere crying while he sees himself being praised!

Thinking this, Sun Linrui smiled and said, "Young Master Luo is, after all, the legitimate son of the Duke's mansion. Let's go find him!"

Sun Linrui said he was looking for someone, but everyone present knew that he clearly wanted to see the other person make a fool of themselves and show them how arrogant he was.

Although they knew Sun Linrui's thoughts, who could argue with the fact that the Fifth Prince was currently the most popular and the most likely to replace the Crown Prince!

So the young men all chimed in, “Young Master Sun is right, let’s go look for it together, just like we’re strolling around the garden.”

With that, the group set off on their journey to watch the show, under the pretext of finding Luo Hao.

Meanwhile, Luo Hao, upon receiving the message from his younger sister, couldn't wait to follow the maid to a small courtyard.

The courtyard, though small, was exquisite and was the place where Minister Sun's residence was hosting the young ladies attending the banquet today.

Luo Hao tiptoed into the courtyard with the maid. Seeing that no one was around, the two hurriedly headed towards a house.

"Miss, I'll go get you a bowl of hangover soup. Please wait here for me a while."

A maid's voice came from inside the room. Upon hearing it, the two quickly hid behind a corner. After the maid pushed open the door and walked away, Luo Hao and the maid came out from behind one after the other.

"Young master, Miss said that this is your only chance. If you don't seize it, the position of the heir of the Duke of Anguo's mansion will probably fall to that illegitimate child."

The maid's words instantly brought Luo Hao back to his senses, and when he looked at the door to the closed island again, his eyes were filled with a determined resolve.
