After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

"Scott?"

At this time, Eric said something half-jokingly to Scott, which almost sent Sheen, who was eavesdropping, away on the spot:

"It's only nine o'clock now. Sheen should not be asleep yet. Do you want to go see him?"

ha? ?

Xien was so depressed after hearing this.JPG

"Eric, do you want to send me away at this time?!"

Sheen wanted to rush out and slap Eric on the green hair a few times before telling him the reason for hitting him.

However, reason told him that he must not do this.

In his heart, Xien wanted to put his hands together and pray:

"Please don't see me, please don't see me!!"

Sheen now had his full attention on Scott—Scott's nod or shake of the head literally sealed his fate.

"Uh..."

Scott looked at Eric, hesitated, then closed his eyes and shook his head.

"Forget it, it's late at night. Besides, I haven't even changed my clothes yet, so it doesn't seem appropriate to meet him like this."

Xien's heart was relieved:

Oh my god—

(I almost left it here)

"Besides..." Scott suddenly spoke again.

Sheen was so scared that he quickly got up from the door, afraid of missing any information.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince will be here soon. I don't want to deal with such a difficult guy again after meeting Sheen."

Scott's words were very cold, as if he regarded Liu Xuxu as an enemy.

Xien OS: Great, the topic has become a new one!

The Duchess tilted her head and said casually:

"Hey, Scott. You haven't even met him, so why do you have such a bad impression of him?"

Scott smiled calmly:

"snort.

"Mom, don't forget that the five security towers destroyed by Li Luxiu were your work."

Eric also thought of this (see the big move that Liu Xuxu made when he snatched the "Devil's Heart" for details), and his attitude was also "disapproval".

Eric put his hands on his knees and held them tightly:

"It would be fine if they sent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but they had to send him. I kind of suspect that the royal family is deliberately looking down on us..."

"Not necessarily," Florin interrupted quickly.

"It may be that the Lyell family intervened. Now Liluci urgently needs to complete the so-called diplomatic mission to make up for the mistakes he made."

Florin added:

"I just don't know why His Majesty's attitude towards him suddenly became cold."

Sheehan was surprised to hear this insight from an 8-year-old:

Although this girl is disabled, her analytical ability is so strong...

As a witness, Sheen knew very well that after Lilith pointed out the fact that the emperor was cheated on, the emperor's attitude towards Liluci did become much colder.

The queen, who was kept in the dark, had been trying to get Liu Xuxiu to take away Everett's chance to "stand out". This diplomatic mission was probably also a chance for Liu Xuxiu to "show himself" through the queen's covert operation.

Qi Xien suspected that Everett let him go on purpose - otherwise how could it be Liu Xuxu's turn?

(That’s not right)

Florin analyzed the facts and could understand them.

"Well, those who can become Impess's adopted daughter are all geniuses."

Although from Sheen's perspective, he couldn't see what Florin looked like.

But he thought it would be a good idea to get to know the girl.

Then came the sound of another wheel and the hurried footsteps of the butler.

"I am so sorry, Your Excellency the Duke, we can't delay any longer," the butler saluted the Duke and explained the current situation.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince will be here soon. As the host here, I think Your Excellency the Duke needs to go and greet him."

The Duke stood up lazily and straightened his clothes:

"Well, it looks like I've got to go - do any of you want to join me in welcoming him?"

The Impers looked at each other and finally left the living room.

Sheen was stunned:

Uh, I have to go back to my room and hide...

(Meeting adjourned)

The next day it was tea time.

Today Sheen was wearing a loose white shirt with a purple silk collar and grey pants.

Sheen moved the small white round table to the balcony on the second floor.

Under the blessing of his magic, there was a layer of light golden protective shield around him.

This way you don't have to look for additional heating equipment.

He sat at the table, enjoying a glass of milk tea topped with caramel roasted milk and five percent sugar under the rare warm sunshine of winter.

There was even steam coming out of the roasted milk, and it was piping hot when you put it in your mouth.

Sheen suddenly heard Leo's cheerful voice coming from downstairs:

"Brother Xien——eh?"

"Kate, where is Mr. Sheen?"

Then came the reply from the maid who was cleaning downstairs:

"Master Sheen is in his room. He is enjoying afternoon tea on the second floor. Leave room for me to clean up."

"Oh, I see... Thank you."

what?

Sheen was a little confused: What does Leo want from me?

Then came the sound of a child's cheerful footsteps. Although the stairs were covered with a velvety taro gray blanket, it couldn't stop Leo's footsteps.

Thump thump thump...

Unlike Eric (who made no noise when he went upstairs unless he was in a hurry), Leo paid little attention to this detail.

Of course, it is not necessary:

Anyway, Leo is the white Impess in charge of "wealth".

Sean lowered his head, holding the cup of milk tea with his left hand, and stirring the milk tea with a teaspoon in his right hand, pretending that he didn't notice Leo coming over.

Leo came up quickly and waved enthusiastically to Sheen:

"Brother Xien, good afternoon! Would you like some cookies?"

Leo is dressed very formally today:

A black shirt, a white tie, black boxer shorts fastened with white suspenders, and white cotton socks that only went halfway up the calf.

(It’s very warm in the Duke’s Mansion, so you won’t feel cold if you dress like this)

Sean always felt that Leo's sudden visit had other reasons. However, he still fulfilled his courtesy to entertain Leo.

Looking at the pink bag handed to him by Leo, Sheen waved his hand.

"Yeah, but forget about the cookies."

Sean raised his head and looked to the right at Leo standing in the room.

"Good afternoon, Leo."

"Okay." Leo smiled with his eyes narrowed.

"If Brother Xien doesn't want to... can I have afternoon tea with you? - No need to prepare anything extra for me, I can bring it myself."

Leo was holding a pink bag in his hand. From the smell of matcha wafting from the bag, he knew that it contained matcha cookies.

"sit down."

Sheen pointed to the empty chair across from him.

Leo quickly sat down opposite Sheen, opened the bag of cookies, and put a piece of matcha cookie into his mouth.

"tasty..."

Leo's face was full of satisfaction.

Sheen always felt like something was missing.

correct...

"Just eating cookies would be pretty dry... Kate!"

Sean shouted downstairs,

“When you have time, bring Leo a set of tea set and a pot of milk tea.

“Can you put less sugar in milk tea? It seems too sweet to be tasty…”
