When the people in the Duke's Mansion saw that the Duke treated Xi Lun coldly, they all felt:

"The Duke should have seen that Xilun is a disaster."

"Indeed, serving Xi Lun is a very troublesome thing."

"What on earth did he do to make the Duke so unhappy?"

When the Lord realized that the "son or brother" beside the Duke and Bonnie had become Sheen, it was too late to save him!

......

Rufus House.

Xi Lun sat on the sofa by the window and made the sign of the cross on the window with his wet hands.

Judging from his expression, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.

What's even more suffocating is that when the Lord sent some gifts to the Duke (to appease those who heard the rumors),

For some reason, the Duke has been looking at Xi Lun's "adoption documents" for a long time these days.

And he was looking at it by the fire!

Seeing the Duke waving the adoption documents in front of him, the lord's heart was lifted.

"I'm afraid the Duke will burn the paper on a whim!"

He had instructed Xilun's servants more than once to keep an eye on Xilun, fearing that Xilun might think too much and do something earth-shattering.

The servants obeyed the lord's orders and did not let Xilun go out.

This made Xilun feel depressed——

outer,

Sheen brought many benefits to the Duke, but Xiren didn't have any chance to show off.

Kevin complained to Xi Lun:

"Unlucky, I can't find it at all!"

"There is no evidence that Sheen did these things! I don't know how these rumors reached the emperor's ears."

The last straw that broke the camel's back finally came -

Xi Lun finally got the chance to attend the banquet, but was mocked by the nobles:

"You're just here to cause trouble!"

"You have enjoyed the treatment of an heir for so many years. It's time to return it to the Duke's child!"

They went from praising Xi Lun for being "worthy of being Haines's bloodline and having the temperament of an heir" to mocking Xi Lun for being "a toad wanting to eat swan meat".

They all imply that Xi Lun is no match for Xi En.

……

Xilun could no longer be "generous".

The afternoon after the banquet, the Duke came to Sheen's afternoon tea room for afternoon tea.

He didn't tell anyone where he was going (Xiren didn't know).

Castle of Norata.

Today's tea is the Duke's favorite black tea, served with Chinese carved porcelain and silver tea sets.

They were placed on a wooden tea table covered with a pure white lace doily.

On the cart nearby are various exquisite snacks (sandwiches, scones, fruit tarts...).

Sheen uses magic to activate the music box (showing off in front of everyone),

The music is classical, melodious and elegant.

The flowers that he cast the magic of immortality on were fresh and fragrant.

Everything in the castle was carefully arranged by Sheen using magic.

The system gives a pop-up reminder:

The cuckoo that takes over the magpie's nest will take revenge.

He received it.

Sheen sat at the side of a round white porcelain table, with his elbows on the table, his hands clasped together and resting on his chin, squinting his eyes and humming a little tune:

"Today is going to be a good day~"

The time agreed with the Duke was 3:30 in the afternoon, half an hour earlier than the Duke's normal afternoon tea time.

There is of course a reason for doing this.

The Duke was puzzled as to why Sheen invited him so early, but he arrived happily after receiving the invitation letter written by Sheen.

He mistakenly thought that this was Sheen's way of changing their father-son relationship, but he didn't expect that Sheen had prepared a bigger surprise for him.

When the Duke entered the tea room, Sheen used magic to control the cold fireworks device on the shelf by the door, which sprayed out brilliant fireworks.

"Wow."

The Duke covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes full of joy.

The Duke was delighted by this welcome (for there was no such thing as cold fireworks in this world).

"Welcome to the Duke's first visit to Norata Castle~"

Sheen asked the Duke to take his seat before he sat down.

He also personally pulled out a bench for the Duke and motioned for him to sit opposite him.

(Extremely flattering.JPG)

The Duke sat down happily, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction:

"Ah, these arrangements are not fancy but elegant, which is very suitable for the arrangement of Norata Castle."

Although he was restrained, everyone present could see the relief on his face.

It can be said that he liked everything that Sheen prepared.

"The layout of a castle often reflects the cultivation of its owner. I give this layout full marks~"

Sheen could see that the Duke wished he could carve the words "You are worthy of being my son" on his face.

This is understandable.

After all, during this period of time, Sheen had been accompanying the Duke in various social venues, allowing the Duke to taste the sweetness early on.

"Then let's have some tea. Your Excellency the Duke, come and try the new tea I got."

Sheen knocked on the lid of the box of premium black tea on the table and showed it to the Duke.

When the Duke saw that the tea Sheen chose was his favorite brand, he commented:

"As expected of Haines' bloodline, you have a very good eye."

good?

That's because I've read the books and know that this is your favorite tea.

The Duke drank a sip of tea made by Sheen himself with satisfaction.

But before the Duke could finish his tea and comment on Sheen's tea-making skills, a discordant sound was heard outside the yard.

The Duke opened his eyes and raised his head, his eyes full of question marks:

"what's the situation?"

"I gonna go see."

Sheen opened the window, and the Duke stood up and looked out the window.

What happened downstairs shocked the father and son for a whole year.

!

Xi Lun and all the people from Rufus Mansion stood together in the yard, and then a group of people punched and kicked the closed door!

The yard was filled with luggage and belongings, as if it was occupying the Norata Castle.

"I can't stand it anymore. It's totally unjust for Xien to bully me like this. Give me justice."

Xi Lun stood at the front of the team, pointing at the window of Sheen's room and shouting,

"Don't let this lowly fellow dirty the Duke's eyes, he must be driven out today!

"He must be beaten up and driven out of Haines!"

???

The two people upstairs looked at each other in confusion.

What is this operation?

Sheen was helpless:

I thought Xilun would come to mess things up, but I didn't expect him to use such a stupid method...

The Duke caught me red-handed. It made me laugh to death!

The people downstairs were very dissatisfied. They wanted to drag Xien's people out of the castle and move in themselves:

"Yes, kick him out of the Haines family!"

"This is where the young master lives, Xien, don't be ungrateful!"

"Is there something wrong with this guy's brain? It's time for him to come out and take medicine!"

The operation downstairs refreshed Sheen's worldview.

The Duke's three views are about to be formatted...

It was so noisy that I couldn't concentrate on drinking my tea.

The Duke wanted to stand up with the help of the table and tried to go down and teach the brat a lesson.

But Xien grabbed his hand.

Sheen stopped the Duke again and again:

"Your Excellency the Duke, it's dangerous downstairs."

"Sheen?"

The Duke looked down at Sheen, and after a moment of silence, his conscience asked,

"Is this how he treats you when he's not under my nose?"
