Chapter 71 Conversation
◎Rampant Alley◎
Liesen looked in the mirror and quickly woke up from his dark mood. He immediately turned off the star network and temporarily suppressed his desire to pay attention to Shi Hanqiao and Luo Wusheng.
He rubbed his stiff face in front of the mirror and smiled every day to pretend to be well-behaved and optimistic. He almost forgot that he had never liked to laugh since he was a child and did not like being in the crowd.
Lissen raised the corners of his mouth, and his cold eyes transformed into gentle and harmless ones in the mirror. The shallow disguise deepened with the changes in his eyes, until he revealed an impeccable sweet appearance. Even veteran actors with many years of acting experience could not tell that he was now wearing a disguise.
When I went out, I didn't see Ander in the magnificent living room. There was only Leia sitting on the sofa getting her hands cared for by a professional.
"Dad, my brother is not here?"
Leia said, "He received a call from Manda and then left."
Lissen responded, went out to the garden, looked up at the orange sky, and sent a message to Ander asking him where he was.
In fact, he knew where they were, but he just wanted to see how Alpha would respond.
[Don't worry about it. I'll take care of the Starnet stuff.]
[Be good, I'll bring you some dessert when I get home.]
Lissen was unmoved and even felt like sneering.
But he still responded in a well-behaved tone, saying that he had to go back to school first, and then added a cute emoticon.
Ander sent an emoji of a Q-version boy rubbing a cat.
Lissen's hands at his sides were clenched into fists, his forearms were so tense that they were shaking, and he closed the chat interface directly.
Many people send anthropomorphic Q-like expressions, but it’s actually nothing, he can accept it.
But his twin brother found out, and he refused to accept it, because he knew that the arrogant Alpha treated him as a pretty pet from the bottom of his heart, and had no respect for his younger brother - a human being.
Forget it, didn’t he already know what bad characters the Alphas were?
The Russell family is rotten from the root.
Lissen took a deep breath and strode out.

Night falls earlier on the capital planet. The daylight closes and the bustling areas light up with orange-red lights at night, as if the sunlight driven out of the sky by the darkness has gathered into neon lights.
As night falls, the bustle is just as intense as during the day.
The capital planet, which has always been known as the "Temple of Light", inevitably has a dark area where the light cannot reach.
This area, known as the 'Black Palace,' is a decadent neighborhood that everyone avoids, representing the dark side of the capital. Contrary to popular expectations of grime and disorder, the neon lights of this area illuminate the deserted alleys.
The most famous place in the 'Black Temple' is the 'Ran Alley'.
Chaotic alley.
It is not an alley, but an underground city with different levels. The lower you go, the higher the level is, and you can see the most extreme darkness.
The bar of the same name is the entrance to the underground city. There are many private rooms in the bar on the ground. They are on the other side of the entrance and are extremely safe.
The bars on the ground are classified into different levels, and only people of high level can have a seat in the private rooms on the ground.
"Still posting childish emojis like this, Ander, how old are you?!"
The arrogant laughter came from the mouth of an Alpha with short silver hair. He looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with light red eyes that seemed to be smiling, and silver earrings shining brightly under the light.
He leaned lazily on the single sofa, with the buttons of his white shirt unbuttoned to his chest, vaguely revealing his strong but not exaggerated body. The slightly wrinkled corners of his clothes gave him a casual and unrestrained air.
The black trousers outlined the straight and slender legs, and the boots of the same color were domineeringly placed on the coffee table.
Ender looked at him in warning.
"Don't give me that. I won't fall for it!"
With a bang, the black boots kicked the coffee table two meters away, and the fruits and food on the table were scattered all over the floor.
The silver-haired young man glanced impudently at the other people in the room.
There are five people in the room, but there is a single sofa, a double sofa and a long sofa.
In terms of status, the Imperial Prince Ander should sit on the single sofa, but he just sat alone on the double sofa. Manda and Huo Ran each occupied a corner of the long sofa, and another person was hidden in a dark corner, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, looking at them indifferently like an outsider.
"Those two female A's aren't coming, but Lessen is our commander after all, so why don't you bring him along?"
The silver-haired young man raised the corner of his lips and glanced at Ander who turned off the screen. His light red pupils gave a slightly serious look, which revealed an inexplicable evil spirit.
The two female A's he was referring to were Yu Rongshui and Mo Wushuang. They agreed to join their team and sign up for the next league, but they usually only participated in team training and would not participate in such private gatherings.
This action shows that they did not take sides.
"How could Liesen come to a place like this?"
Ander's sharp eyes immediately locked onto the silver-haired young man, "Su Ye, stay away from my brother from now on, lest you lead him astray!"
How could he let his pure and innocent Omega brother come to such a dark place!
Huo Ran nodded in agreement, but Manda was so preoccupied with family matters that she didn't really listen to their conversation.
The man hidden in the darkness was as quiet as a statue.
Su Ye didn't care about Ander's angry look. He raised his foot and kicked the coffee table that was pushed back to its original position by the robot. He glared back with his light red eyes: "Why are you yelling at me!"
"Your Omega brother..." He added slowly, his tone deliberately drawn out, "He's not as weak as you think."
Manda was worried about his father's affairs, so in order to prevent the two big Buddhas from quarreling and leaving his affairs unresolved, he quickly stepped in to mediate.
"You are the only ones who can help my dad now."
Manda also has the surname Russell, but it is just a side branch. He is a distant relative of Ander and has a nominal relative relationship with Su Ye.
One of them was a prince of the Empire, the other a prince of the Dark Night of the Empire. They were the only people he could rely on. Because of him, Mander had been detained. None of his father's connections could be used. Everyone had abandoned his father as if they had been warned.
"I can't protect it. I don't have the ability." He didn't want to get involved.
Su Ye leaned lazily on the sofa, his eyes moving away from the anxious Alpha and sweeping over Ander. After being glared at, he glared back without flinching, as if he was looking at some prey, and then looked away.
Glancing at the Alpha who had been defeated successively by the Star Network Demon Lord and that loser Shi Hanqiao a few months ago, Manda looked so much like Huo Ran back then, his light red eyes hadn't changed at all.
It really makes people lose interest!
Su Ye's gaze fell on the Alpha in the dark with interest. People who grew up in the darkness are more interesting to play with.
"Su Ye, please restrain yourself."
When his gaze fell on him before, Ander endured it and just warned him with his eyes. But he actually stared at that person. In order to let that person continue to work for him, he had to warn him.
Everyone present was well aware of the silver-haired youth's perverted hobby. Huo Ran and Manda didn't care about the embarrassing begging they had done in the past or were currently doing. They were just incredibly grateful that Su Ye had lost interest in them.
"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you some face."
Su Ye withdrew his gaze, turned on his Star Brain screen and asked someone to bring up some toys from downstairs.
After he sent the message and turned off the Star Brain, he heard Manda saying that they had learned that many people were planning to put the blame on his father for the past crimes.
Manda said, "For what happened to my father, the most he would have to do was be dismissed from his post, plus pay compensation and spend two years in prison. If someone else were to accuse him of another crime, they'd probably be exiled to the border!"
Being imprisoned on any planet is better than being exiled to the frontier, where for criminals, life is worse than death.
Su Ye sneered, "You speak as if your father has never before passed the blame for a serious crime on to someone else."
Anyone in the royal family, the four major families, and the powerful circle who had not done anything was unlucky enough to be abandoned without protection, and most of the time the silent and neutral people stood up.
Of course, this wasn't just a timely help, but rather adding fuel to the fire. They were eager to throw all traces of their crimes onto the abandoned pawn. However, for the sake of balance, it was naturally impossible to force everyone's crimes onto him. But with so many people pushing a few traces of guilt, it was enough to make Mander's life worse than death.
"you--"
When Manda met Su Ye's cold red eyes, his anger stopped. He was just a branch of the Russell family and could not afford to offend the silver-haired young man in front of him.
He had no choice but to look at Ander and Huo Ran, hoping that they could join forces to help him.
As for the Alpha in the darkness, he was just a dog that would recognize its master if given meat. Manda didn't take him seriously at all.
Seeing that Ander was hesitant and had not given a definite answer, Manda also became angry.
"You told me that Liesen was unhappy because he lost to Luo Wusheng, and you wanted to vent his anger, so I threatened Lu Renjia to publish the blog post."
"Are you planning to cross the river and destroy the bridge?!"
"I just wanted to vent my anger on my brother's behalf, but I didn't ask you to write an article to discredit Luo Wusheng."
Ender looked at him coldly, releasing pheromone pressure towards him, "Who told you to put Leshen on the Star Network for those civilians to comment on?! I haven't settled the score with you for this matter yet!"
In his opinion, Omegas should be kept in a greenhouse and should not be criticized by everyone on the Star Network.
Manda choked. He hadn't thought this matter through.
Now that he was asking for help, he naturally didn't dare to argue with Ander, so he had to lower his voice to ease the atmosphere.
Listening to Alpha's undignified apology, Su Ye rolled his eyes. Fortunately, he didn't have the habit of attacking the grass in his own yard. According to Manda's attitude, he would just play with her and throw her away.
Luanxiang had new toys today, but they were delivered a little late, so he forced himself to join in the conversation.
"You are just worried that Luo Wusheng will take the opportunity to cover up Mander's crimes so that his own people can take the position of Minister of the Imperial Information Department." Su Yehua said to Ander, but his light red eyes were looking at Alpha in the dark, pulling him, who was watching coldly, into their topic.
"You should be very clear about Luo Wusheng's plan, right?"
"—Ulysses."
Alpha, who had not spoken since entering the box, slowly walked out of the darkness. The light slowly moved up from Ulysses's cold jawline, revealing a pair of indifferent eyes.
"I've only been in the capital for five days. How could I know his plan?"
The fermentation process of this matter has not lasted for less than 24 hours.
Ander asked, "So what do you think, should I help?"
Even though Ulysses had been helping him for a long time, he still tested him. He didn't completely trust a dog like this that would recognize its master as long as it was given meat.
The reactions of the other three listeners to a question are more interesting than the expressionless face of the person being asked.
There was interest in his light red eyes, Huo Ran was indifferent and didn't care. Manda's eyes were full of hope, staring at the dog he once looked down upon with anticipation.
The atmosphere in the box became heavy due to silence. Ender's eyes became sharp. Everyone's attention was focused on Alpha who had just walked out of the darkness, his shadow still in the darkness.
"I don't have the final say," Ulysses analyzed. "A lot of people are already eyeing Mander as a scapegoat, just waiting to project their own negative image onto him."
Ander said in a deep voice: "All I need is your opinion on whether or not to confront Luo Wusheng directly."
"Whether to protect Mander depends on the cost and benefit of this matter. If the cost is less than the gain, why not protect it?"
Ulysses met his sharp gaze directly: "As long as there is a chance, why not suppress Luo Wusheng?"
【Author’s words】
Su Ye, just a pure pervert!!! (Emphasis on this: pure pervert)
The main plot during school was about love, but this chapter still touches on the main plot a bit. (Tomorrow there will be a little dog-eat-dog plot, and then the main story will be about the heroine and the hero!!!)
Don’t complain about the supporting characters having too many scenes in this chapter T﹏T, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow there will be 10,000 views!!! A big fat chapter straight out of the gate!!!
P.S.: This is a romance novel. The heroine and heroine are in a two-way relationship! There is no secondary CP in any form. If the plot is set as a couple, it does not count as a secondary CP!
PPS: I don’t rule out other people being the single-arrow heroine/hero, but!!! No chance!!! Hahahahaha!!!
