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

the other side.

Stella's room is on the third floor, which happens to be on the same floor as the upper floor of Sean's duplex room. And Sean's resting place is also the bedroom of the upper room.

While Stella was having a nightmare, Sean, in his pajamas, was sitting at the small desk in front of his bed, writing something with great interest.

He wrote down the amount of information he had gained during this period and calculated the income he had earned from selling beets: this would make it easier for him to plan his future livelihood.

Just when Sheen was secretly delighted that Impes was a good "golden thigh", a scream came from his neighbor:

"what--"

Sean straightened up in fear, and then thought about who lived next door:

Scott??!!

Without thinking too much, Sean hurriedly put on his shoes.

Then he rushed to the closet and turned the inconspicuous black knob next to the closet counterclockwise half a circle, and the secret door protecting the wallpaper in the upper room loosened.

(Roller turning sound)

He quickly pushed the wallpaper to the right, and it shrank into the wall.

Sheen took the key to this door from the closet, turned the brown secret door in front of him, opened the secret door passage on the third floor, and finally pulled open the curtain.

This was the secret door on the third floor that the Duke had told him about on his first day.

It seems that what the Duke said at the time was "Scott has poor sleep quality, you need to pay more attention to him."

(I don’t want to think about the details)

“Shua——”

Tap tap tap...

Sheen didn't care about the sound of the door curtain, he just wanted to go and see if Scott was okay.

Fortunately, the secret door was not far from Scott's door. He only had to turn a corner and run a dozen steps to reach Scott's door.

dong dong dong...

Sheen stood at the door to the room, not even thinking of swinging it open.

He just knocked on the door gently, then put his right ear against the door to listen to the reaction of the person inside.

After a while, Sheen asked in a low voice:

"Scott? Are you okay?"

“Huh…”

Stella, who was sitting on the bed, was sweating all over and looked exhausted.

She just woke up from a nightmare.

Of course, Stella (Yuye) realized that the person outside the door was Sheen, and she quickly put the horror brought by the nightmare behind her. Sheen's arrival was unexpected:

No way, Sean isn't asleep yet?

Stella looked at the pocket watch beside the bed. It was half past eleven.

Did I go to bed too early?

"Don't come in!"

Stella (Yuye) gave instructions towards the door and Sheen did as she was told.

"Yes."

Xien (Jiaming) didn't know where to put his hands, he just thought: There has never been such a ring before...

Yuye was glad that this body had habitually lowered its voice when speaking, otherwise Xien would definitely notice this vest:

That's not a good thing!

"Whoosh..."

Stella closed her eyes tightly, her face covered with cold sweat:

Things like this were the foreshadowing I did when I was writing "The Game of Negotiation" to highlight how Scott turned evil.

And Scott had been having dreams like this before Lisa died (because Nora died in the original book), so the more suffocating it is, the better.

And now...the whole story has been changed to——

"Brother Scott voluntarily took the most fatal blow to protect his mother. Nora is alive, but Scott is dead..."

"My sister watched her brother being killed by Lisa."

So this will be Stella's eternal pain.

Every time Yuye had this dream, he felt that he was really committing a sin.

......

The worry outside the door did not abate.

Xien still stood at the door and asked the people inside:

"Are you really okay? Why aren't you talking?"

"fine..."

Stella answered weakly and perfunctorily, then took out a dry towel to wipe her face.

"Xien, please go back first and let me be alone for a while."

Sheen wondered if Scott was really okay, but he couldn't go against Stella's instructions.

He put his hands down, straightened his back, and took a step back.

"Ok."

When Sheen left, he looked back every three steps.

He walked slowly back to his room, worried.

Of course, as the only reader of The Mediation Game, Sheen (Jiaming) has read the story about "Scott's Nightmare" -

Ever since Nora's death, Scott has often dreamed of Nora being killed by Lisa.

Da da da...

Sheen felt something was wrong:

"But didn't Mrs. Nora survive?"

He felt that there was a mystery about Scott now.

...

That night, Sheen also had a strange dream:

Regarding the second half of Haynes' wolf-sheep theory, and the young man with long silver hair and those eyes that appeared in the mirror...

He didn't sleep well anyway.

The next day.

Stella had told her family in advance via communication tools that she would not be going downstairs to eat, so she stayed in her room to enjoy breakfast.

Although young nobles would worry about getting married, for Stella, this was not a necessity.

It’s mainly because of the special nature of her identity—I don’t know whether she wants to find a “husband” or a “wife” in the future.

"It would be nice if there was someone in this world who could be both a 'husband' and a 'wife'. Why would I want to make such an 'unfinished' setting?"

Thinking of this, Stella felt a little annoyed.

She fanned herself with a piece of cardboard.

Emma, ​​the personal maid, brought breakfast, and another maid set up a lazy cookie table on Stella's bed.

They have served Stella for so many years and knew Stella's inner thoughts, so they were able to do the preparatory activities with ease.

After everything was ready, they planned to serve Stella.

"It seems that the Second Young Master didn't sleep well last night. It seems that he needs to take it easy."

Emma placed the prepared breakfast on the small table and greeted Stella.

Stella, who was still half asleep, was speechless. She put the cardboard down and said helplessly:

"Thank you for still calling me 'Master'..."

Breakfast finally arrived.

Today's breakfast is baked avocado slices, a sandwich made of two slices of toast fried golden on both sides with egg liquid, a small vegetable salad, fried potato wedges and orange juice.

"I'd like a cup of green tea with matcha after dinner, thank you."

"Okay, okay, we can do all this after the young master's meal." Emma nodded, and the maid beside her indicated that she had accepted the instructions.

Stella tied her long hair up and tried hard to keep herself awake.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to work.

"Um..."

She is both the second young master and the eldest young lady - she feels uncomfortable all over if she has nothing to do in a day.

Stella chewed her breakfast slowly, listening through a door as her subordinates who had just come to visit told her what they had to deal with today.

"By the way, Master,"

The men behind the door did not forget to tell Stella about an extra thing to do today.

"Mr. Xien wants you to have afternoon tea with him today."

"cough,"

Stella was about to put some orange juice into her mouth, but she suddenly came to her senses after hearing the big news brought to her by her subordinates.

She turned on the voice changer and asked the men at the door with it:

"What did you say? Sean invited me to have afternoon tea with him today?

"Where...?"
