Chapter 485 Barbecued Pork Son
Because Ming Zhuo's excellence made them look even more stupid and unappreciated by their father, they were really afraid that one day their father would divorce their mother and marry the duke's daughter, leaving everything in the Ming family to Ming Zhuo.
But now Mingzhuo has actually given himself a handle to anger his father, so it is no wonder that they are taking advantage of his misfortune.
Sure enough, under their various instigations, Ming Duo became increasingly dissatisfied with Ming Zhuo's performance today.
But Ming Zhuo himself was completely clueless. After admitting defeat and getting off the mecha, he did not immediately return to the Ming family's territory. Instead, he grinned like a big golden lion and walked towards Yunhe, as if he wanted to discuss this "new mecha" with him.
The Duke's daughter, who was sitting at home watching the live broadcast, covered her face with a slap, and was also helpless by her son's behavior of not knowing how to cover up at all. The important position she had worked so hard to help her son build in Ming Duo's heart was destroyed by this stupid son.
but
The Duke's beautiful and noble face showed a thoughtful look, but Ming Duo was no longer her first choice. Although Ming Duo was dissatisfied with her son's behavior today, from the perspective of the Yun family and the bystanders, they should appreciate him.
As long as you get in touch with the Yun family, it shouldn't be difficult to meet the Third Prince who is behind the Yun family.
If she uses this relationship properly, she can borrow the influence of His Royal Highness the Third Prince. This path is much better than that of the Ming family.
After all, she has known Ming Duo well enough over the years. This man seems romantic and affectionate, but in fact he is selfish. Anyone who threatens him, even his own son, will be cruelly dealt with by him. Cooperating with him to let her son seize her family's viscount title is tantamount to courting disaster. It is better for her to surrender to His Royal Highness the Third Prince.
As far as she knew, although the Third Prince did not have a very good reputation among the old nobles and was even rude to women, he was now very powerful and was a fair and talented person. Liu Shaoqi, who was born a commoner and was saved by him, was the best proof of this.
Therefore, joining him is obviously a good choice. Moreover, His Royal Highness the Third Prince is the most promising heir to the empire. Her son might have a greater future after establishing this relationship.
The Duke suppressed her excitement and began to work on her plan to join the Third Prince with bright eyes.
As long as His Royal Highness the Third Prince accepted the surrender of the mother and son, even if His Royal Highness the Third Prince did not take action, she would have a way to let her son inherit her father's title. After all, although those people in the Duan family were as greedy and corrupt as hyenas, they were timid and would not dare to go against His Royal Highness the Third Prince.
Return to the San Loya Arena.
Ming Zhuo was talking to Yun He, ignoring Ming Duo's ugly expression.
He asked with admiration, "Do you sell this mecha? I want to buy one, but I don't know where to buy it from."
Yunhe scratched his cheek, "Are you talking about the puppet?"
Ming Zhuo suddenly understood, "Oh, so it's called a puppet." Then he showed his white teeth and said firmly, "Yes, I want to buy a puppet. Where can I buy it?"
Yun He had been instructed by Wu Xingyu and Yun Qimu to display as many puppets as possible, as they would soon start selling them. So, facing the first business that came his way, he rubbed his hands and smiled. "You can buy them. I'll sell them in my Yun family shop later. But we haven't opened the shop yet, and even if we did, the quantity wouldn't be large due to the workmanship and materials."
Mingzhuo's expression immediately turned serious. "Then can I reserve one in advance?"
"I can't make the decision on this." Yunhe hesitated for a moment, and felt a little reluctant when he saw Mingzhuo's depressed look. In fact, he still had a good impression of Mingzhuo. This man was upright and generous, and even admitted defeat in a free and easy manner, so Yunhe didn't want to refuse him.
"How about this? I still have to compete. You go ask my brother and see what he says."
"Okay." Ming Zhuo's eyes lit up, revealing a row of white teeth. He immediately responded and greeted Yun He, wishing him good luck in the competition, and then strode towards the Yun family.
Ming Duo, who was waiting for him to come back, was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe. This damn barbecued son didn't take him, his father, seriously at all.
Yun Ting welcomed his arrival very much, and after asking Yun Qimu, he gave Ming Zhuo a reserved spot.
Mingzhuo thanked him happily.
Yun Ting smiled and refused, "No need to thank me. I'm going to sell it anyway, so it doesn't matter who I sell it to. Besides, I'm not giving you any discount."
Ming Zhuo disagreed and shook his head, saying, "Brother Yun, you're being too modest. Given the advantages of the puppet, it's bound to be a hot commodity once it's released. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for me to snag one then."
Although he was known as a mecha genius, he knew that he was nothing in the empire. Any noble would have a higher status than him. If they tried to grab a position, he would not be able to compete with them.
Because Mingzhuo was humble, free and easy, honest and polite, the Yun family had a good impression of him. Yun Ting even pulled him to sit down and chat with him, and they got along quite well.
Yun Ting glanced in the direction of the Ming family and said teasingly with a smile, "It seems that the head of the Ming family is glaring at you, Ming Zhuo."
Ming Zhuo glanced over there, and when he met Ming Duo's eyes that were as piercing as cold fire, he immediately frowned and looked away with a wry smile on his face, and then sighed softly, obviously not wanting to say more.
Just when Yun Ting thought he would not speak again, he suddenly heard him say, "Brother Yun, can you recommend me to His Royal Highness the Third Prince?"
"Hmm?" Yun Ting's smiling mouth faltered slightly. He turned his head and looked over. The gentleness in his eyes faded, revealing a hint of depth. "You're still in the Imperial Academy. Why are you so eager to make a name for yourself?"
Ming Zhuo didn't notice his expression. He looked a little annoyed, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. But in the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Because I don't want my mother to suffer so much anymore. I like mechas. I want to be a mecha warrior and fight for the empire, but..."
He hung his head and recounted everything his mother had done for the title of Viscount. He also talked about how many hypocritical things his mother had done over the years to train him and gain Ming Duo's trust. As a son, he had always seen all of this. Although his mother did not let him participate and only asked him to do his best, she did not hide it from him. He really could not bear to see his mother continue to work hard for the title.
Moreover, he also disliked the Ming family, so if he wanted to fulfill his mother's wish, he could only seek a powerful external aid. In his opinion, His Royal Highness the Third Prince was the most suitable candidate.
Good night~~
