Li Guang was silent for a long time before speaking softly.
"Thank you." Luli stood in front of the glittering entrance, closed his eyes and said sincerely.
Then Luli jumped up and disappeared in the white passage.
---------
Era of Light
Solar calendar year 481
In the Central Continent, within the Frey Empire
Duchy of Sadria
"Have you heard? Young Master Aiden took first place again in this month's family assessment."
During their free time, several servants gathered in the corner in twos and threes, working and discussing excitedly.
"Young Master Aiden is truly gifted. He began training at the age of five, and in the five years since then, he has never fallen below first place. He is also extremely hardworking and diligent, and is deeply loved by the Duke. I wonder what kind of person will be worthy of our young master in the future."
One of the servants put down the work in his hands and said shyly while holding his heart.
"Don't you know? I heard that His Majesty wants Princess Sira to enter into a marriage contract with Master Aiden."
"Really? That's Princess Sera, known as the Flower of the Empire?"
"Who knows, but only a princess can be worthy of our young master, right?"
"Oh my God, that's such a great joy!"
"Yes, if Master Aiden could inherit the title, he would definitely be able to lead the family to a higher level. But if it were replaced by that mediocre young duke...sigh, I'm afraid it would be a great disappointment."
"Who says it's not true? The young Duke was born to the previous Duchess, and you all know about the previous Duchess. That marriage was a huge uproar, and everyone knows it. Everyone knows that the Duke hates the Duchess, and the young..."
"Ahem, shut up! Be careful or the head maid will find out and punish you again."
"Oh no! The head maid isn't here yet, is she?"
"No, no, let's get back to work."
“Okay, okay!”
......
When this was mentioned, the girls all covered their mouths and stopped talking as if they were under a silencing spell.
All of this was heard clearly by the young Duke Luli Sadlia who was standing in the corridor not far away. He had no opinion or emotion about it.
It was as if the person who just spoke was an insignificant person. He just listened silently and continued walking towards his destination. When he passed by the group of maids, he ignored their hurried greetings and passed by without even glancing at them.
I walked straight to the family library, found the book I hadn't finished reading yesterday, and continued reading it.
He was young. Although he was the eldest son of the Duke and was named the Young Duke according to convention, he was only one year older than the second young master Aiden. As the eldest son of the Sadria family, a famous swordsman family, he had no talent for swordsmanship and his magic talent was mediocre. Therefore, many family members had complaints about his becoming the Young Duke.
Luli sat under the bay window of the library, flipping through a book carefully. There was a constant temperature array on the window that maintained it all year round, and there were soft backrests and cushions. Sitting on it did not make him feel cold, but rather warm and comfortable.
The territory was cold all year round, with heavy snowstorms occurring from time to time. His room was often drafty, so he came to the library just to keep warm.
It's ridiculous that as the young duke of the Sadria Dukedom, his room is so shabby that it's not even as good as a servant's room.
The reason why he felt numb to the servants' words was because he had long been completely disappointed with this family. Since he had no hope, he naturally would not feel sad or upset. Those emotions had long been gone with the wind as his father tried to get rid of him secretly again and again.
Luli closed the book expressionlessly and stood up again.
I've finished this one, so which one should I read next? Luli pondered as he walked.
He was small in stature, and looked about the same height as a child of seven or eight years old, but he had fair skin, delicate features, and waist-length silver hair that swayed and fell behind him. Combined with his expressionless face, he looked quite heroic when he walked. Unfortunately, he only took two steps before he tripped over a protruding piece of the thick red carpet under his feet and fell to the ground, ruining his posture in a second.
Luli fell on the carpet. Although he was not really hurt, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. He got up from the ground with a serious face, patted the non-existent dust on his body, straightened his clothes, and his ears turned red.
The little boy quickly looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no one noticed his ugly appearance.
Just as I was about to walk towards the bookshelf next to me, I heard a muffled laugh from above my head.
"puff."
Luli's face darkened, he looked up, and his clear blue eyes widened instantly.
An unknown breeze blew in gently, and the first thing that caught the eye was a head of dazzling golden hair, followed by the handsome face of the man hidden in the shadows. It was a beauty that could not be described in words.
The smooth and fair face is angular and cold, the amber eyes are charming, the thick eyebrows, high nose, and beautifully shaped lips all show nobility and elegance.
The man looked down at him from above, with a faint sense of oppression coming towards him.
Luli stared blankly at the young man sitting on the bookshelf ladder, flipping through a book in his hand, and almost forgot the words of scolding he wanted to blurt out.
"Don't stare at me in a daze. Look, your saliva is about to flow out. Am I that good-looking?" The man's teasing laughter came from above. His voice was clear and clean, and it was as soothing as the sound of running water from a mountain.
Luli subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, his hand froze, and a muffled laugh came from above his head again. A crack appeared on Luli's expressionless face. As expected, he was fooled by the man.
"Hahahaha." The man laughed so hard that he couldn't stop. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"You really believe that? That's so cute."
If I continue to trust him, I will take the surname Goblin, Luli muttered to himself.
He walked past the bookshelves and continued forward. On the shelves further in were books with complicated and obscure contents, most of which dealt with the Genesis period. Luli picked up a book titled "Interpretation and Understanding of the Illuminati Doctrine" and was about to flip through it when he heard a chuckle from behind him.
"Children shouldn't read those extremely boring books. If they read too much, they will become old-fashioned, which is not good."
Luli looked up silently, and met a handsome face with a smile above his head. Luli glanced at him, then silently picked up the book and walked towards the bay window again.
