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

Susan was silent.

"But don't be too scared. I heard that Sheen has received the admission notice from the Magic Tower. Atol cannot go against the will of the Magic Tower Master."

She grasped the fan and said calmly:

The implication is that Sheen will soon leave the Duke of Haines's Mansion.

Xi Lun raised his head and looked at Susan eagerly:

"You mean, Xien won't be able to live freely for long?"

"Um,"

Susan closed her eyes and nodded.

“As far as I know, once you are admitted to the Magic Tower, you will go there for further studies at the age of 13, and then be recommended to the Pereo Magic Academy in the north of the empire.

"Although that place is a sanctuary for further study..."

Susan's final words are the key points:

"But there are monsters everywhere in the northern part of the empire, and ordinary people can't survive there without much life."

Xi Lun was stunned:

"That place is dangerous..."

"What are you talking about?"

"As long as Xien encounters an accident during his training, and the gods do not retaliate against the Haines family, it proves that you are the legitimate bloodline of Haines."

Susan put her hands together, rested her index finger on her chin, and looked at Xi Lun with half-opened eyes.

"When the time comes, Atole will definitely respect you."

Susan paused, and thought of another idea:

“Even if he is lucky, it will take more than ten years to complete his further studies.

"What can he compete with you for if he comes back?"

"Is what you said true?" Xi Lun sighed.

"Yes. Sheen will have to leave Haines for at least ten years. These ten years are enough for you to show your abilities in front of Atole."

Susan smiled and nodded, then continued to instruct,

"Listen to me, Xilun. These ten years are a great opportunity for you to show yourself..."

The following words revealed a threat, but Xi Lun didn't notice it:

"You can't mess this up with your own hands again like you did now, understand?!"

"Yeah, yeah, I know!"

Xi Lun's eyes sparkled.

"Then after Sheen leaves, I can prove my worth and return to the Duke's Mansion?"

"It stands to reason,"

Susan looked at the burnt adoption documents on the table.

There was hesitation in her eyes.

"But it is precisely after what he has experienced that Atole will never treat you as his own child again. The bargaining chip for his favor is no longer of any use to him."

The implication is that Xilun can no longer be as presumptuous as before:

He already has a strong competitor.

"But please stop being so willful, okay?"

Xi Lun nodded. He was no longer happy.

"Got it - can I take a rest here for a while?"

"Sure, the people here are your real family anyway,"

Susan stood up and pointed upstairs.

"Do you want to go and have a look? During the time you were away from the Lord's Mansion, I gave you a few brothers and sisters."

"Really?" Xi Lun was confused.

"I'm not here, and these two have started the baby-making plan??"

......

"Wait, where's father?" Xiren realized that the lord seemed to be away.

"he?"

Susan shook her head.

"In the study, but don't go in. You know he drinks when he's in a bad mood..."

He was probably furious when he learned that Xiren was kicked out by Atole himself, so he drank to relieve his sorrow.

"I have advised him for a long time, but he is still unwilling to give in. You know, in order to send you to the Duke's Mansion, he has said so many nice things against his conscience over the years."

Susan stood at the stairs and turned to look at Xi Lun.

"Don't go see him for a while. I'm afraid he will beat you."

"Ah."

Xi Lun said: There is no hope for such a father.

It was sunny in the Duke's Palace and the weather was cool but not hot.

There are always some cumulonimbus clouds in the sky, which makes people who appreciate the blue sky feel annoyed.

The Duke's residence has been in good order these days, and the Duke feels that there is some rationality in the absurdity:

The ridiculous thing is that Alex didn't come to the Earl's house immediately after Xi Lun was forcibly sent back to the Earl's Mansion. What makes sense is that the couple probably spent the past few days trying to coax Xi Lun with all kinds of sweet talk.

The Duke has spread the news that Xien is going to the Magic Tower for further studies, which makes the couple feel that Xiren still has a chance to turn things around.

The Duke scoffed:

“Their idea is really ridiculous.

It seems that they are putting all the blame on Sheen, not realizing how rubbish their children are!"

Swish, swish, swish...

The Duke was sitting in his office handling official business. Thinking of Xi Lun's arrogant face in front of him, he felt angry inside.

The written words began to fly.

But he almost laughed out loud when he thought of the scene where Alex coaxed Xiren like a baby.

The handwriting returned to normal.

The assistant who was sorting the documents looked at the Duke's handwriting, which was sometimes flamboyant and sometimes clear, and his face was moody.

The assistant couldn't help but mutter in his heart:

"Can I keep my job today..."

The Duke heard some footsteps outside the door. He knew it was Ted's, so he shouted directly to the door:

"come in."

Ted carefully opened the door of the office and stuck his head out:

"Your Excellency the Duke, Alex is here to see you. I have arranged for him to stay in the tea room downstairs."

Alex?

An unexpected yet expected visitor.

The prince put down his pen, closed the document, stood up with the help of the table, and muttered:

"He managed to coax Xi Lun? How strange.

"Just prepare some tea. It's morning now, and there's no need to prepare his share of the meal."

The Duke seemed to be confident that he would make it to his own lunch.

......

The furnishings in the tea room were not as cozy as Sheen's tea room, and it looked like a place for business talks.

Tea sets are enchanted. They are resistant to being smashed:

Prevent flying debris from injuring people.

It was the first time for the two brothers to sit face to face in a room after such a long time, which made the servants present feel incredible.

(This atmosphere is too depressing)

No one wanted to serve them closely.

Alex was trembling all over as he watched the maid pour his tea, and the Duke opposite him almost laughed.

"Please enjoy."

The maid bowed and ran away faster than anyone else.

The tactic adopted by the two brothers was "courtesy first, then force". Alex first talked to Atole about some daily trivial matters.

In the end, I couldn't escape the topic of Xi Lun.

"Xi Lun? Don't mention his name to me, he is too arrogant!" The Duke got angry when he heard Xi Lun's name.

"It's fine if he beat up Sheen the first time they met, but what's the point of breaking into a house and smashing the door?"

Breaking into a house? Smashing doors?

Xi Lun didn't tell Alex.

Alex's first reaction was that Sheen had come up with some way to make Xiren a scapegoat, rather than Xiren taking the initiative to cause trouble.

"Listen to me, brother, I have my reasons..."

Alex was also slow at first.

"Xi Lun has been acting strange lately. He is definitely different from before."

"Something's wrong with Xilun. When did it start to go wrong?"
