Chapter 119



Yun Luo glanced at him indifferently and didn't intend to pay any attention to him.

No matter how beautiful and kind the protagonist described in the plot was, Yun Luo always sneered at them. Just like now, he said welcome words but couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes.

Yun Luo didn't want to pay attention to him, but Xi Er kept insisting: "Brother, you really misunderstood that incident back then. I really..."

"What does it matter? Are you talking about Major General Terran? Do whatever you want. He's just a man. I don't want a man with bad taste." Yun Luo interrupted him before he could finish.

Hill blushed with anger. What did Yunluo mean by that? What did he mean by poor taste? Did he like him?

Yun Luo didn't want to care about his reaction and walked past him into the gate. When Hill came to his senses, Yun Luo had already gone in.

The appearance of the mansion was not much different from the original owner's memory. Every time Yun Luo passed by a place, the original owner's memories and the remaining emotions of the original owner would automatically emerge in his mind.

Yun Luo ignored those emotions. There has been a saying since ancient times that the sight of something can trigger emotions. It is normal for the original owner's remaining consciousness to be touched when returning to a familiar place. After all, until the original owner left, there was a small wish deep in his heart: he wanted to go home.

This home does not refer to the Duke of Oren's Mansion, but to the childhood where he was loved by his father and mother. It was the only pure land in the original owner's memory. Compared with this, the fiancé who he placed certain hopes on was nothing.

Yun Luo walked slowly along the road that the original owner was familiar with, and memories of the original owner emerged in his mind from time to time. Most of them were from the original owner's childhood, and there were very few when he grew up, unless they were some that touched him deeply.

Duke Oren was not at home, so the butler took Yun Luo back to his own courtyard.

"Young Master, please stay in your original place. If you don't like it, you can ask me for it. Just tell me where you want to move to."

The yard had obviously been swept and was very clean. The original owner's belongings were all preserved, and some new items had been added.

Yun Luo looked at the spaceship model on the desk with complicated emotions in his eyes.

Noticing Yun Luo's actions, the butler came over to explain, "Young Master, hasn't you always wanted a model? After knowing that you agreed to come back, the Duke had people prepare quite a few. Besides this, there are more here."

The housekeeper took Yun Luo to a small storage room outside the bedroom, opened the door, and found a display cabinet filled with various models.

Yun Luo took a quick look and found that in addition to the model, there were many things that Hill had taken away before. Yun Luo didn't know whether the items were returned to their original owners or Duke Oren had someone buy exactly the same things back.

Noticing Yun Luo's gaze, the butler spoke, "These were all the eldest young master's treasures. The Duke also had Young Master Hill return them to you. Some of them are too worn out, so the master took the initiative to replace them for you."

In fact, these are not very valuable things, but they are cherished by the original owner because they carry precious memories. If it was the original owner who appeared here now, he might be moved by Duke Oren's actions and stumble back to his father's arms with his longing for his father.

Unfortunately, the one standing here now is Yun Luo, a complete bystander. He does not have the original owner's special attachment to this family, and does not expect the fatherly love of Duke Oren. No matter what kind of offensive Duke Oren adopts, it is impossible to succeed.

Yun Luo walked around the storage room, with the butler following behind him. Every time he stopped, the butler would say something, simply to show that Duke Oren still cared about him as a child, and that he had to send him away before, playing the emotional card.

The butler came here under the orders of Duke Oren. Duke Oren knew that Yun Luo had created a gap between him and him, and he wanted to eliminate this gap. Only when Yun Luo turned back into the child who obeyed him could he be truly used by him and bring him greater value.

If not, why would he bother with all this effort?

But he didn't know that his actions not only failed to make Yun Luo open his heart again, but instead made Yun Luo more certain that he had big plans.

The butler had been observing Yun Luo the entire time, thinking he had concealed his actions well, but he didn't realize Yun Luo simply didn't care. Yun Luo's spiritual awareness was powerful, making him particularly sensitive to glances directed at him.

The more he observed, the more shocked the butler was. Yun Luo had changed so much. Compared to when he was on the Imperial Star, he seemed like a completely different person.

The more he felt the difference between before and after, the more worried the butler became. Yun Luo was in this state now. Would he really not do anything bad to the Duke's Mansion?

The butler was Duke Oren's confidant and had a certain degree of understanding of Duke Oren's plans. He had originally thought that it would be difficult to deal with a child who was just a child who needed love and wanted his father's attention. Now he knew he was wrong. After going out, Yun Luo had changed completely compared to the past.

I’m afraid Yun Luo is not so easy to control now.

His premonition was correct. Soon after, he could feel what was truly difficult to grasp and what a wrong decision it was for Duke Oren to bring Yun Luo back.

The butler was accompanying Yun Luo and did not notice that an inconspicuous servant had quietly retreated. Yun Luo did notice it, but did not say anything. He left now, most likely to inform the other owner of the Duke's Mansion.

In order to prevent the Duchess from causing trouble, all matters on Yun Luo's return journey were handled by people arranged by Duke Oren. The Duchess tried to do something several times, but each time she failed.

As Yunluo thought, after the servant left the yard, he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he walked carefully in a certain direction.

If anyone else in the mansion noticed, they would have discovered that he left in the direction of the courtyard where the Duchess was confined.

Yes, in order to prevent the Duchess from coming out and disrupting his plans, Duke Oren found an excuse to put her under house arrest again. Otherwise, as the other owner of the Duke's Mansion, she would definitely come out to express her opinion when Yun Luo returned.

The servant went straight into the courtyard where the Duchess was confined and reported everything he saw.

The Duchess listened expressionlessly. If it weren't for the white fingertips of her fingers holding the feather fan, people would probably think that she didn't care about Duke Oren's attitude towards Yun Luo.

After the servant finished his report, he left, leaving only the Duchess and her trusted maid in the room.

"The Duke's attitude towards that bastard almost made me think that he was overwhelmed with fatherly love and felt guilty towards that bastard." The Duchess said through gritted teeth.

"You also said it was almost there. Don't we know what the Lord's real plan is? I'm just a chess piece. The Duke will only appreciate me if I'm useful. If I'm not useful..." The maid stepped forward and served tea to the Duchess.

"You're right. I shouldn't be dwelling on this right now. As long as my Xier can win that person's heart, no matter who Yunluo marries, she won't pose a threat to us."

If the Duchess was initially afraid of Samuel's reputation as a tyrant, she no longer cared about it after Yun Luo returned to the Imperial Star. Over the years, she had come to realize a truth very clearly: only when the power in your hands is great enough, you will not worry about becoming someone else's pawn at any time, and your destiny can be truly in your own hands, not controlled by anyone else.

"Madam, the young master is here."

A servant came in to report, and the Duchess composed herself and went to greet the young man who walked in.

"Didn't you say you were going to see a friend? Why did you come back so suddenly?"

Through their careful management, Imperial Star now has a small circle headed by Hill, and from time to time, everyone will go out to get together. Today, Hill is going to a gathering with another small circle, and Hill has put a lot of effort into making this gathering happen.

No matter how you look at it, it would be irrational to just give up like this.

"I met Yunluo, mother," Xier sat on the sofa with an unhappy look on his face, "He actually dared to scold me."

"Didn't I tell you not to provoke him for now? Mother will take care of Yunluo's problem." Disapproval flashed in the Duchess's eyes.

Hill: "I didn't provoke him, I just talked to him. Mother, do we really have to let father take care of him? What if he finds out that we were behind all that?"

The Duchess: "He's back now. Do you think he doesn't know? I heard that he has changed a lot and is now a completely different person. I'm afraid he knows more than we thought."

At this point, the Duchess sneered. Did Duke Oren really think that he had brought back a puppet who would obey his orders? Obviously not. If Yun Luo really knew about what Duke Oren had done to Yun Luo's mother in the past, no, maybe Yun Luo already knew part of it now, otherwise why would he come back suddenly?

Judging from the information from the people who were following him, Yun Luo is no longer the easy-to-control person he used to be. Who knows who will suffer the loss later.

After Duke Oren returned home, the butler reported Yun Luo's situation to him one by one, and at the same time, he did not forget to express his concerns: "The child has changed so much that it may be difficult to control him."

"I understand. You continue to pay attention to that side," Duke Oren nodded. "By the way, is everything okay with Madam? Where's Hill?"

"No, Master Hill did meet with Master Yunluo, but they didn't say a few words before parting ways."

"Pay attention, Yunluo always uses the highest standards in all applications."

"Yes," the butler nodded, "won't you go and see him?"

"I'm afraid Yunluo is still resenting me for that incident, and probably doesn't want to see me. Let's wait a little longer." Duke Oren said helplessly, as if he was talking about a child who had reached his rebellious stage.

If the butler didn't know what Duke Oren's real intention was, he would have believed that he was really worried about the relationship between father and son, although on the other hand, this statement was not wrong.

Yun Luo thought that Duke Oren would be eager to come to see him, but he didn't expect to see him after waiting for two days.

You really can keep your composure.

Except for meeting Hill on the day he just came back, this person never came to him to make a presence known. Yun Luo felt relaxed and happy. Seeing that the weather was good, he planned to go out for a walk.

As soon as he walked to the front garden, he saw the original owner's ex-fiancé and the protagonist talking together, so Yun Luo turned and left.

"Wait, Yunluo!"

The author has something to say: I saw someone asked, the protagonist of the original book is the next emperor of the empire
