Chapter 35



"Actually, I shouldn't be saying these things." Gavin scratched his chin. He felt a little embarrassed to say such a private matter out loud, and missed the boy's sudden change of emotions that shouldn't have happened.

"How... did you know that?" the young man pretended to be confused.

As soon as these words were spoken, it was essentially equivalent to tacitly agreeing with Gavin's statement. Gavin was so shocked that he didn't care about being embarrassed. His eyes widened and he muttered, "That's really the reason. The public's eyes are really sharp."

The two were not far away from each other, and no matter how quietly Gavin spoke, Samuel heard everything clearly. The corners of his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but finally gave up.

"I'm telling you, this kind of thing can't be left unchecked. If two people are not harmonious in that aspect, big problems will arise sooner or later. Look, you've made the boss so angry at once. If things get serious, he might not even let you touch the bed." After the shock, Gavin's heart was ignited with a blazing fire. Whether Baiyun CP can be together depends on whether Xiaobai can listen to his advice.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" The young man lowered his eyes, his voice filled with helplessness.

"The young boss is still angry. The most important thing is to calm him down first. Otherwise, no matter how many methods you use, it won't work." Gavin considered himself quite experienced in this area. "Look at me and O'Neal. We've had arguments before..."

Gavin used himself and O'Neal as examples, trying to make Xiaobai realize the seriousness of the problem.

Samuel listened very carefully. He was still confused about the real reason why Yun Luo was angry. Of course, he knew that Yun Luo was not alienating him because of his performance in bed. Yun Luo did not even give him a chance to perform. How could it be the reasons spread in the manor?

At first, Gavin was a little hesitant. He was not familiar with Xiaobai, and sharing these things with a stranger made even the carefree Gavin feel a little embarrassed. But when he saw the curiosity on Xiaobai's face, he felt that he could do it.

I couldn't help but say a little more.

Samuel lowered his eyelashes to hide the thoughtful look in his eyes. He just wanted to listen to what this female had to say on a whim, and he actually learned a lot from listening halfway through.

From childhood to adulthood, Samuel had no chance to get along with others normally. The people around him either had ulterior motives or were up to no good. These people surrounded him like a shadow. Even though he later fought his way out and held the highest power in the empire, he still could not completely get rid of these people.

It can be said that the days when he lost his memory and lived in the manor, getting along with Yun Luo like this was the only time in his life. Sometimes he even envied himself who had lost his memory. The same person received completely different treatment.

Yun Luo treats Xiao Bai specially, Samuel can feel it clearly, but this special treatment is only given to Xiao Bai. From the test that night, he got an unpleasant conclusion: once he knows that Xiao Bai has recovered his memory, all the special treatment will be withdrawn.

He felt something similar to himself in Yun Luo: indifference, cold-heartedness, no attachment to the world, like a bystander, detached from the world.

He was stuck in a quagmire, bound to the world and unable to break free. Why could Yun Luo stay out of it, when he too was burdened with hatred and injustice? Samuel didn't want to see Yun Luo's indifference; he wanted to pull him into the world.

Gavin was thirsty and stopped to catch his breath. He noticed that the boy seemed distracted and tried to push him: "Are you listening? I..."

His voice suddenly stopped, his eyes widened uncontrollably, and his pupils shrank sharply. At that moment, he felt as if he had been thrown into a pond of undismayed ice, with his neck tightly strangled by a pair of invisible hands, making it impossible for him to breathe.

The feeling of being on the verge of death lasted only a moment. Gavin stood there in a daze, with beads of sweat sliding down his forehead.

Samuel's hand hanging by his side moved, and his subconscious reaction seemed to scare the female.

"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Gavin blinked his eyes and came back to his senses as if waking from a dream. Looking at the boy who looked exactly the same as before, he frowned. Was it just an illusion?

"Xiaobai, did you feel something was wrong just now?" If it wasn't an illusion, there must be something dangerous in the manor. This must be told to the boss!

"No," the boy said, his expression not seeming to be lying, "You just stopped talking."

"Really?" Gavin refused to believe that such a real feeling was an illusion and hurriedly ended the topic. "I've said almost everything I wanted to say. Whether you can win back the young boss depends on you. The young boss is such a good person, you must seize the opportunity!"

Looking at Gavin who was leaving in a hurry, Samuel tapped his fingers, and a moment later, Wei Ling appeared silently.

"Owner."

"Go and take care of it. I accidentally leaked my aura just now and it seems to have scared someone. Don't let the young boss feel anything unusual."

"yes."

Gavin walked back absent-mindedly. He felt that he had forgotten something. He thought about it carefully but couldn't figure out what it was. He shook his head and simply stopped thinking about it.

What was he planning to do just now? He couldn't remember... Never mind, he should go find his mentor as soon as possible. Work is more important.

"Host, I know why the original owner's fiancé suddenly sent me a message last night," 007 gloated. "Because the protagonist went on a date with someone else yesterday, he was upset and wanted to come to the original owner for comfort."

[Doesn't he dislike the original owner? ]

[Scumbags are like this, they won't let go of any fish in the sea. The original owner was so devoted to him before, but suddenly he ignored him for such a long time. He must not be used to it.]

[As long as he doesn't bother me.] Yunluo was not interested in being a fish in the sea.

[Host, don't worry. I guarantee he won't dare send me any more messages.] Thinking of the scumbag being scolded to the point of doubting his life, 007 laughed "Hehehe".

Sure enough, Yun Luo didn’t receive any messages that shouldn’t have appeared for several days.

Lingshenglou's business was booming day by day. The impact of the previous live broadcast was still there, and a lot of likes were coming in every day. 007 looked at the progress bar that kept increasing day by day and felt that this was the most boring time he had ever had since carrying out the mission.

Other systems have to work hard to complete the tasks, but he is different. With the host as his strong support, he doesn't have to worry about anything. He lives in the mission world as if it were a vacation world.

Yun Luo looked through the manor bills sent by the housekeeper. With Lingsheng Building, the manor's finances were finally no longer in a deficit.

In addition to Lingsheng Building, the manor also has other industries. Yun Luo compared the profits of previous years and found that without exception, the profits of these industries were decreasing every year.

Yun Luo inherited this manor, and all the ancillary industries contained in the manor were also under Yun Luo's name. Since it was his own property, he couldn't continue to have negative growth. Yun Luo planned to take some time to go and take a look.

Before that, you need to understand first.

Yun Luo called the butler. The butler had been in the manor all the time and was the person who knew the manor best. Moreover, the butler was loyal and would not hide anything.

"Why do you suddenly ask this, sir?" After hearing Yun Luo's question, the butler was a little confused. He had shown Yun Luo everything in the manor, and Yun Luo had always seemed to be lacking interest before.

"I don't need to worry about Lingsheng Building for the time being. I want to reorganize other industries. I can't let Lingsheng Building alone support the expenses of the entire estate."

"Sir, your intention is good, but this matter may not be easy to handle." The butler looked embarrassed.

"What's going on?" Yun Luo sat up straight. "Is there something wrong with these industries?"

"It's not the estate that's problematic, it's the people who manage it," the butler sighed. "After Miss Yun married Duke Oren, this manor was taken over by Duke Oren's people. Aside from the unprofitable manor itself, all other profitable properties are in the hands of the Oren family."

"When the young lady was still here, these people knew how to restrain themselves. After she left, they didn't even want to maintain the facade. They said it was the estate's property, but in fact it had long been independent, and all the profits went into their own pockets."

"That's why the account books show that the profits are getting smaller and smaller." Yun Luo supported his chin with one hand, thinking.

"I'm not sure about the other things, but the profit from that mine is definitely more than this, at least ten times! This mine used to be the main source of income for the manor, but after the Oren family took over, the income has been declining year by year, and this year it's even ridiculously low."

Speaking of this matter, the butler could not hide his anger. That was olefin ore, one of the necessary materials for making mecha. In addition, many machines needed in life also required olefin ore.

Yun Luo's gaze lingered on the photo of the person in charge of the olefin mine, and he slowly lowered his eyes. "They'll all have to come to the manor soon to hand over their tasks from last year. In the past, the manor had no owner, so they could come or not. This year, I'm here, so he should come and see me."

"I'm afraid they won't want to come and will find all sorts of excuses to avoid it."

"That's not up to them," Yun Luo said with a smile that made people feel a chill for no reason. "I hate it most when people get their hands on things that belong to me."

If you dare to reach out, be prepared to have your hands chopped off.

"I understand. I will make them all willing to come." The butler lowered his head respectfully. No one saw the tears that suddenly appeared in the corners of his eyes. If the young lady had been like the young master back then, she would not have ended up like that.

Because the manor is considered to be the property of the Oren family, they can usually get news about the movements of the Oren family on the Imperial Star. The butler has heard about what Yun Luo did on the Imperial Star. He heard it from the people sent by the Oren family. Their words were all derogatory towards Yun Luo. He was angry but helpless.

When the butler first heard that Yun Luo would be sent to Somir Star, he swore that no matter what the child looked like, he would do everything he could to ensure that he would live a happy and safe life in the manor.

However, when he actually met Yun Luo, he realized that Yun Luo was completely different from the rumors. Such a graceful young man would never be like the rumors said.

The young man's subsequent actions confirmed his thoughts and made him even more angry. He could almost imagine what kind of life the young man was living on the Imperial Star.

Before the "guest" arrived, the manor welcomed Jiang Mu's exit.

After the retreat ended, Jiang Mu immediately found Yun Luo and thanked him.

Yun Luo checked his cultivation and smiled: "Not bad."

Jiang Mu blushed slightly at the compliment. Yun Ye bumped his arm and teased, "Alright, now you're even better than me."

When Yun Ye first learned about Jiang Mu's true strength, he was extremely surprised. Later, he thought, no wonder he was injured during the struggle that night. It turned out that Jiang Mu was not a low-level person at all.

"I'm sorry for deceiving everyone before." Jiang Mu bowed sincerely to apologize. The days he spent in the manor made him truly realize how people get along with each other. He was grateful to Yun Luo for appearing and pulling him out of the quagmire. He was also grateful to the other people in the manor for allowing him to rediscover the beauty of the world.

"It's okay, you didn't do it on purpose." Yun Luo looked at the man who had changed a lot, feeling a little emotional. He could feel that something had changed in Jiang Mu, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"Come on, come on, there's no need to talk about the past. This is a dish that the boss prepared specially for you. You're in for a treat."

The table was filled with delicious dishes. The delicacies cooked from the meat of exotic animals exuded an enticing aroma, which made people's appetites whet.

Yunye pulled everyone to sit down: "Everyone is taking advantage of your blessing today and having a good meal."

In the steaming heat, Jiang Mu's eyes turned red without him noticing. Looking at the table full of dishes and the familiar faces sitting around the table, the softest part of his heart was touched, and it felt sore and numb.

"Is Xiaobai okay now?" He remembered that before the retreat, Xiaobai had never been able to transform into a complete human form. The boy sitting next to Yunluo today had his ears and tail retracted.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern." The young man spoke lightly. His voice was cold, which easily gave people a feeling of being unapproachable.

Jiang Mu frowned slightly. For some reason, he always felt that Xiaobai was different today, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different.

Yun Ye tugged at Jiang Mu's sleeve and explained in a low voice, "Xiao Bai did something wrong and made the boss unhappy. He's been in a bad mood recently. Don't mind it."

It turned out that he was in a bad mood. Jiang Mu realized that he had found the reason and threw away the thought that had just popped up in his mind.

Samuel turned his head to look at the young man beside him. It seemed that he was determined to draw a line between them. No matter what he did in the past few days, he could not move the young man.

No, I can't. I've already caught his attention. How can I just clap my hands and leave?

Feeling the gaze on his face, Yun Luo tilted his head slightly and met the boy's silver-blue eyes.

"Luo, please don't be angry, okay? I will be a good boy from now on."

His silver-blue eyes were filled with grievance and sadness. Yun Luo's heart trembled. He turned away and picked up a piece of meat and put it in the boy's bowl: "I'm not angry. Eat your food obediently and don't talk."

As expected, the boy stopped talking and didn't speak a word throughout the whole process. Yun Luo glanced at the boy while picking up some food. The boy looked up as if he had noticed something, and Yun Luo quickly looked away.

"You and Xiaobai haven't reconciled yet?" Yunye followed Yunluo and asked.

"I'm really not angry with him. Why do you all think that he made me angry?" Yun Ye, Gavin, and even the housekeeper came to find him. Yun Luo was really helpless.

"If you're not angry, why did you make such a fuss?" Yun Ye didn't believe it. "Xiao Bai definitely isn't angry with you. If you weren't angry, why would Xiao Bai be so depressed? Why would he apologize to you the first chance he got?"

Yun Luo felt that his reputation was being damaged. "I just think that Xiaobai is such a grown-up, he shouldn't be clinging to me all day long. He has his own things to do..."

"The two are not in conflict," Yunye interrupted him, "Even if he has his own things to do, it doesn't prevent you two from being together."

"What do you mean by the two of us being together?" Yun Luo felt something was wrong the more he listened. "Do you think Xiaobai and I are together?"

"Isn't it?"

Yun Luo finally knew where the strange feeling he had felt these past few days came from. No wonder everyone came to talk to Xiaobai. He was also curious when Xiaobai became so popular. It turned out that this was the reason.

"Why do you all think that Xiaobai and I are together?"

"It seems that I misunderstood." At this point, Yun Ye still didn't understand that Xiaobai might have other thoughts about Yun Luo, but Yun Luo didn't.

After all, this was a matter between Yunluo and Xiaobai, so Yunye couldn't say much and changed the subject: "Fans have been asking about the next live broadcast time recently. Do you have any plans, little boss?"

"I remember you have quite a few videos there. You can show a few of them first." Yun Luo was happy not to discuss Xiao Bai's affairs and changed the subject following Yun Ye's lead.

"That's fine. Actually, you don't have to livestream your cooking. You can also livestream other things. I see everyone is interested in Lingshenglou. You can find some time to film Lingshenglou. It can be considered a form of publicity."

Yun Luo stopped and looked at the tall building standing not far away, which was very different in style from the surrounding buildings. He nodded and said, "Okay."

The number of fans of Lingshenglou's official Star Blog has reached nearly one million. Except for a small number of people who have actually visited Lingshenglou, the vast majority of them have come here because of various recommendations. Their understanding of Lingshenglou is limited to the part circulated on the Star Internet.

That night, as usual, after Qiao Shiyue checked in at Lingshenglou's official Weibo, she was about to log out to check the topics when she suddenly saw a new piece of content.

After seeing the new content, she opened her eyes wide in disbelief and jumped up from the bed.

She quickly opened the boss's official blog, and as expected, saw a post with almost the same content.

I excitedly opened the comment section and my hands were shaking while typing.

——Ahhhhhh it’s not an illusion, the boss is really going to broadcast live, and this time it’s Lingsheng Building!

——I wanted to burn paper for my grandma, and her granddaughter squatted for her!

— Lingsheng Building! I’ve been curious about Lingsheng Building for a long time. Can I finally see it this time?!

——It is said that Lingsheng Tower is very beautiful and has restored the ancient Chinese architecture. I am very curious.

Another one trying to capitalize on the hype. Can he restore ancient Chinese architecture just because he wants? Even Professor Middleton wouldn't dare say such a thing.

——Who is Professor Middleton?

—You don't even know this? One of the empire's most in-depth professors in ancient Chinese architecture, he was the one who designed and built the buildings in the newly opened Ancient Chinese Exhibition Hall.

——Is there anyone who has been there who can share what Lingsheng Building is like?

——I’ve been there, I’ve been there. I remember when I saw Lingsheng Building, the only words that came to my mind were “Fuck”.

——Aren’t there photos on Lingshenglou’s homepage? Is there any expert who can help me identify it?

——I asked the senior brother, and it looks like an ancient Chinese building.

——It’s just a photo. Have you forgotten the uproar half a year ago when he claimed to have restored ancient Chinese architecture? It was really just a “photo scam”.

——That incident made me so angry. I said so many words for that liar with such sincerity. If Lingshenglou is the same as that person, I’m sorry, I’m going to turn from a fan to a hater.

——Lingsheng Building didn’t say that it was a restored ancient Chinese building. Didn’t the netizens say that themselves?

——Isn’t letting it go the same as acquiescence?

——Your Lingshenglou is awesome. They took advantage of the popularity and kept it clean. They are much more clever than that person back then.

Seeing the topic becoming more and more off-topic, Qiao Shiyue loosened her grip on the quilt, and her excited heart calmed down a little. She knew nothing about ancient Chinese architecture, and could only see the grandeur of Lingsheng Building from the photos, but not much more.

I quickly replied:

——Everyone, please stop arguing. We’ll know whether Lingsheng Building is an ancient Chinese building after the small boss’s live broadcast. Don’t fight now.

Her main account is considered a big fan group of Yunluo. She is often active on the front line and is fair in her work. Many fans give her face.

——Qiao Qiao is right, now is not the time to argue about this, the focus is the live broadcast, the boss is finally going to open for business!

——Although it’s not the live cooking show I’ve been dreaming of, Lingshenglou is also something I’m interested in, so I’ll wait.

——After the previous experiences, I decided to keep my mouth shut every time there was a dispute related to Lingsheng Building. My IQ was simply not suitable for getting involved.

——I am different. I firmly stand on the side of Lingshenglou.

——+1, and by the way, looking forward to the live broadcast of the boss.

Seeing the topic return to the right track, Qiao Shiyue breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little worried. Lingshenglou and the young boss were in the limelight right now. If everyone was not satisfied with Lingshenglou after the live broadcast, the follow-up would definitely be very troublesome.

She thought about it and couldn't help but send a private message to the official Weibo of Lingsheng Building. Regardless of whether Lingsheng Building was a restored ancient Chinese building, she had to make preparations early.

Yunye looked at the noisy comment section and frowned, "This is not right. The focus shouldn't be on this."

"Someone is just guiding us from behind. As Lingsheng Building grows stronger, it will inevitably block the way of some people. They don't dare to confront Lingsheng Building head-on, so these people only dare to make some small moves." Yun Luo casually put down the cup in his hand, stood in front of the window with his back to Yun Ye.

The moonlight spread across the earth, and wherever the eyes could see, it was covered with a layer of hazy mist. Yun Luo stretched out his hand, and the cold light made his skin even whiter.

Invisible spiritual power poured into his body through the moonlight. Yun Luo closed his eyes slightly. If he could change his form, he would definitely take root in a place with the most spiritual energy and enjoy it to the fullest.

"A fan sent me a private message. It was a big fan. He sounded very anxious and asked us how we were going to handle it."

"Tell him not to worry, those people can't cause any trouble."

Lingsheng Building is a part of the restaurant. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a genuine ancient Chinese building. What's more, Professor Middleton is still building a house on his estate. Those who want to use this to attack Lingsheng Building will definitely fail.

Gavin, who had just returned to his room after a busy day, saw the news and wanted to clarify it immediately, but O'Neal stopped him: "The boss didn't take any action, maybe he has other ideas. You might as well ask first."

Gavin thought about it and agreed. The matter had been brewing for several hours, and the boss should have known about it long ago. It would be bad if he rashly stepped forward to ruin the boss's plan.

Yun Luo received the message from Gavin and replied, "Don't worry about it."

The comments on Star Online are not one-sided. After the previous experiences of being slapped in the face, people are not so easily instigated. Apart from the happy online groups, not many bystanders actually suffer.

In the bright room, a middle-aged man in a gorgeous suit tapped the floor with his cane: "How's it going?"

"I've already arranged for someone to take action, but... the results aren't ideal," he said quickly before the man got angry. "Don't worry, I'll definitely get it done."

"Go ahead, don't let me down."

The other side.

"Have you found the person?" Samuel threw the black communicator on the table, supporting his chin with one hand, and spoke in a lazy tone.

"Yes, Master, shall we start right away?" Wei Ling knelt on one knee with his head lowered respectfully.

"Don't be in a hurry." His fingers tapped the table slowly and steadily. This was a little action Samuel liked to do when he was thinking about a problem.

Amid the regular knocking sounds, Wei Ling heard his master sigh lightly, and then a low, magnetic voice sounded in the house.

"Tell me, what should I do to make the young boss return to his previous attitude towards me? I'm clearly acting the same as before I lost my memory, so why is he so cold to me?"

Wei Ling looked up in surprise, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise how could he hear His Majesty say such words?

The author has something to say: Thank you to the little angels who voted for me or irrigated nutrient solution between 2020-08-15 20:00:27 and 2020-08-16 20:00:45~
