    In his opinion, Feng Fei Ming was infinitely charming. Even the fact that Shen Mingye was interested in Feng Fei Ming did not surprise Yoder too much.

    Thinking of this, Yoder picked up the red wine on the table and sipped it, but his gaze landed on Shen Mingye, who was sitting at the table. When he swept over the young man’s amber eyes, Yoder could not help but pause.

    He initially only saw that his fiancé, who had only just reached adulthood, seemed to have some interest in Feng Fei Ming, but now it appears that the love in the young man’s eyes is evident.

    Knowing that the two are not related by blood and that Feng Fei Ming has much care for the young man……

    It was no surprise that there was a sense of anger in Yoder’s heart that something precious was being defiled. In his opinion, Shen Mingye, who was weak and could only be protected by others, was not qualified to be with the powerful and sexy Feng Fei Ming.

    But for some reason, today, he couldn’t help but look into the eyes of the young man at the table.

    Because the emotions in the person’s eyes are too obvious and too bright. It was simply like the clearest pool of water, projecting the pure feelings of his heart without reservation.

    If it were not that this emotion happens to be directed at the person he is interested in, Yoder would think that this young boy with an angelic aura is pure and lovely.

    But now, he only felt that it was extremely annoying.

    Qing Yun continued Shen Mingye’s silly and sweet character very well. At the dinner table, he occasionally expressed his heart to Feng Fei Ming, but in his mind, he was thinking about who that man has become this time.

    Qing Yun’s gaze swept over Feng Fei Ming with a subtle glimmer. If the man is stupid this time and is the main character……hehe, he will definitely make him look good.

    At the same time, Qing Yun also looked at Yoder. This man had just taken over his own family not long ago and was still sharp. Now, his disgust and hostility towards Shen Mingye was utterly unrestrained.

    In short, both men looked at him in a way that made Qing Yun very uncomfortable, but Qing Yun didn’t dwell on it too much, and the slightly curved corners of his mouth even revealed his true inner thoughts.

    In fact, Qing Yun likes the random encounters with the man. They will be in different scenes each time they meet, with different positions and emotional collisions, making Qing Yun very interested.

    Qing Yun is prideful inside. He does not care who the man crossed into; he is definitely his. Of course, if he is unhappy with him, he must be treated accordingly and taught well.

    However, regardless of whether Yoder is him or not, Qing Yun now has to follow his script properly.

    He coldly put down the knife and fork in his hand, the metal and porcelain collided with a clear, crisp sound.

    The other two people at the dinner table turned their eyes to the young man.

    Shen Mingye raised his head and looked at Feng Fei Ming first. As if the feigned tenderness in the man’s eyes had greatly encouraged him, he took a deep breath and turned his head to look seriously at Yoder, who was looking over with raised eyebrows.

    “Mr. Elmond, although on this occasion, what I am going to say next will be very rude, but after all these days of tossing and turning, I have decided to say it because I can’t watch you waste your time on my side.”

    Yoder’s frown tightened. He looked at the shy boy who turned red with nervousness when he said those words to him and scoffed inwardly. What could he say? Does he have the nerve to ask for their marriage agreement?

    Seeing the faint disdain in Yoder’s eyes, the young man seemed even more nervous. However, as if he had some conviction in his heart to support him, he finally gathered the courage to say what he wanted to say. “Mr. Elmond, I am very sorry, but I cannot fulfill our marriage contract because I already have someone I like.”

    After saying that, Shen Mingye turned his head to secretly look at Feng Fei Ming at the side.

    Hearing Shen Mingye’s words, the two people at the table froze in unison, not expecting him to have the guts to ask Yoder to break off the engagement to his face.

    The young man seemed like he was on the wrong medication today. He said to Yoder with an apparent nervousness but was still firm and serious: “A union without love is in itself wrong and unfair. That is why I am making such a request.”

    Shen Mingye, a thin young man, seemed to be stimulated by the vague response of love in his heart, and his eyes were shining brightly.

    When Feng Fei Ming looked over from the side, he could not restrain the questions in his mind. Did Shen Mingye really like himself so much?

    Yoder looked at the young man in disbelief. Although he had been looking forward to breaking the engagement, he could not restrain the embarrassment of being rejected when the young man was the first to propose it.

    He racked his brains, wanting to break off the marriage contract, but he couldn’t say it because of his own father’s authority. But this fiancé, whom he didn’t like at all, mentioned it in such a straightforward manner. Where did he get the courage?

    Before Yoder could say anything, Feng Fei Ming’s reprimanding voice rang out, “Mingye, stop it.”

    He held a spoon and stirred the soup. His eyebrows drooped, and his already reserved face made it impossible to see what was on his mind. “The marriage contract is not just a matter for you alone. It is a matter for both families. Yoder, don’t listen to the nonsense of a child.”

    Feng Fei Ming’s words made the faces of both people at the table sink.

    Especially Shen Mingye. From Feng Fei Ming’s perspective, he could clearly see the crystal brightness in the teenager’s eyes disappear instantly, and his face seemed to become a little paler. But after the initial doubts, Feng Fei Ming did not waver from Shen Mingye’s emotions.

    He did not believe that Shen Mingye could still fall in love with him without reservation after he was about to snatch everything away from him.

    Whether it was the Patterson family or Yoder, Feng Fei Ming was going to get it all. So, in all honesty, he didn’t think Shen Mingye, the heir who grew up in the Patterson family, was really stupid to this extent.

    There is no telling what this man can be thinking in his heart.

    He wiped the corner of his mouth elegantly. Feng Fei Ming thought to himself that maybe he should increase Shen Mingye’s monitoring during the weekdays.

    Looking at Feng Fei Ming’s faintly cold face, Qing Yun sneered in his heart. No matter what, the marriage contract between him and Yoder must be broken. Not to mention that he already has someone he likes, the marriage contract itself is a heavy shackle for Shen Mingye.

    So both Yoder and Feng Fei Ming found that the young man today is unusually tough on the matter of marriage contract. He looked at Feng Fei Ming with a bit of disappointment, but he still said in a firm tone: “I have never acknowledged the marriage contract with Mr. Elmond. The marriage contract does not have a legal effect. If one of the parties denies it, it can naturally be regarded as dissolved. This is my stance. ”

    After saying that, the young man got up and left the dining room.

    After the dinner was over, Yoder soon left.

    Back in the Elmond family, Yoder had a sad face, but he knew Feng Fei Ming was right. The marriage contract between him and Shen Mingye was a marriage between two families. It was not something that they could simply break on their own.

    Yoder took off his jacket and handed it to the butler waiting at the side. After thinking about it, he asked, “Father…..is he free now?”

    The butler, who had white hair, smiled and said, “The master has been in his study all day.”

    Although robot butlers are now extremely popular, the Elmond family, the largest manufacturer of robots, still uses ordinary people as butlers. The old butler has been in the Elmond family for more than thirty years and is highly respected by Yoder’s father. Even Yoder does not dare to disrespect him.

    “Young master, if there is a matter, do you need me to ask about it?”

    “I’ll trouble you.” Yoder was relieved to see that the butler was willing to help.

    Although he has now received the Elmond family on the surface, the actual person in power within the family is still his father – Ahaz. The Elmond family’s industry is simply spread throughout the E country. From defense equipment down to the production of garbage bags, the Elmond family logo can be seen everywhere.

    And Yoder vaguely knows that the Elmond family is not just these industries on the surface. It is more like a behemoth coiled throughout the E country, extending its hidden tentacles to control every aspect of the country.

    A short while later, the butler came out of Ahaz’s study and nodded at Yoder: “You may go in, please be careful.”

    The butler’s words of caution immediately raised Yoder’s concern, and he vaguely understood the meaning of the butler’s words.

    He was afraid of the fact that his father was painting at this moment.

    Pushing the door of the study open and entering, Yoder subconsciously held his breath and lightened his steps. A sudden wave of regret came over him. Perhaps he should not have ventured in to ask his father about the marriage contract.

    He had just come back from outside now and had not even washed his hands, so he hoped he would not cause his father any displeasure.

    It was a bright room with paintings on the wall. At first, they were oil paintings, but gradually the way they were painted changed into traditional oriental paintings as if the owner of the painting was slowly figuring out the perfect way to depict the scene in his mind.

    However, the paintings hanging all over the room as a whole can make people’s hearts shiver because these paintings all depict the same scene.

    The man at the table had stopped painting and was standing there carefully examining his new painting.

    This man is undoubtedly the uncrowned king who controls the entire economic chain of the E country, the actual ruler of the Elmond family, Ahaz.

    Although he already has a son as old as Yoder, Ahaz is not considered old as he is still under forty years old. And unlike other Westerners who display old age, time has not carved traces on Ahaz’s face and only made his temperament settle down extremely terrible.

    Maybe it’s the aura of being on top for a long time condensed, or perhaps it’s a long-standing obsession in his soul. These complex factors make his emerald green eyes like an abyss, which seems to be able to suck in one’s soul.

    Facing the man in the room who was only wearing loose pajamas but whose aura still made people tremble, beads of sweat faintly oozed from Yoder’s head. He lowered his head deeply, and his eyes were glued to his toes, not daring to glance around the room, much less to put his gaze on Ahaz’s painting.

    Compared with the man in the room, Yoder is still in his early twenties. Although many people have praised him for his thoroughness, Yoder only feels like the weakest insect under the pressure of the man’s aura.

    Yoder is very afraid of his father. He knows that he was only the product of an accident when Ahaz was a teenager, so he does not dare to be arrogant because of his status as the heir of the family.

    Because everyone knows that Ahaz is still young, and he doesn’t need an heir now. If he wants other children, he can have more if he wants.

    In Yoder’s memory, his father did not have such a terrible aura before, and his methods were not as cruel as they are now.

    One day, Ahaz suddenly announced that he would hand over the Elmond family to Yoder while he retired behind the scenes to focus on the family’s business in those gray areas.

    And Ahaz became obsessed with painting. Apart from dealing with family affairs, he spent almost all his time on painting and went to the extent of studying again to learn various ways of painting.

    Yoder, who had just taken over the family business and could not help but drift into the present room, and saw the scene on Ahaz’s painting.

    It was just a simple room with blurred details and only one person sitting on the sofa in the middle.

    This person and the surrounding modern style of the room is out of place yet unusually harmonious as the only person in the painting is wearing a flowing and loose robe, with the hem almost spread out on the carpet. And a long black hair hanging down like a cascading waterfall, winding and swooning into an enchanting trail.

    However, only a vague outline of the person appeared on the painting. Even though Ahaz’s painting presented the person from different angles, it was impossible to see the person’s face or tell if the person was even a man or a woman.

    It is such a blurred outline alone that Yoder got a nightmare-like punishment.

    His father almost gouged his eyes out, and as soon as he recalled the scene, Yoder felt a vague pain in both eyes.

    Ahaz’s possessiveness towards a fictitious person in the painting had reached a morbid point. If he has not seen Ahaz put the family estate in order, Yoder almost thought his father had gone crazy.

    He had fallen in love with the blurred figure on his painting.

    Ignoring Yoder behind him, Ahaz gently stroked the hair of the man on the paper. His emerald eyes, a symbol of noble blood, were covered with longing and confusion.

    Who is this person? Is it possible that if he draws his appearance, he will be able to remember him and find him?

    But no matter how hard Ahaz tried, he could not portray the man’s face. Once, Ahaz just tried to put pen to paper on the man’s features, but only one line completely ruined the aura of the person in the painting, leaving Ahaz heartbroken.

    “Father……father……” Yoder hesitated and slowly spoke out.

    “What is it?” Ahaz said coldly, not giving his son much of his attention

    “I……” Yoder subconsciously swallowed his saliva. Then, he remembered the fearless eyes of the young boy again on the dinner table and immediately encouraged himself.

    Yoder, you can’t even compare to a weak little guy!

    “Father, can our engagement with the Patterson family be dissolved?” Yoder tried to convince his father, “There is absolutely no need for us to join with another family, isn’t there?”

    “If you disagree, then can we get someone else? Now that Feng Fei Ming is in charge of the Patterson family, I think……”

    “You should know you don’t have a choice.” Ahaz coldly interrupted Yoder. He did not have any feelings for this son of his and was merely interested in discussing the matter of marriage contract with him.

    “Yes……” Hearing Ahaz’s words that could not be refuted, Yoder immediately slumped his shoulders. However, he remembered Shen Mingye’s words and still spoke hesitantly. “Father, it’s not just me……as the other party to the marriage contract, the Patterson family’s Shen Mingye has made it clear that he does not recognize the marriage contract……then does this marriage contract still count?”

    Once he heard Yoder’s words, Ahaz was a bit more interested, and his emerald eyes swept over Yoder: “Oh? Shen Mingye? He’s a bold little fellow.”

    Ahaz did not expect someone would dare to disobey him. The little guy was right. As long as one of the parties to the marriage contract announced the dissolution of the marriage contract, then indeed, it would no longer be valid.

    But this is only under normal circumstances. With Ahaz’s ability, he can ultimately make Shen Mingye lose his right to speak.

    However, in any case, the other party’s lack of cooperation still brought him some minor trouble, so Ahaz could not help but look at his son even more displeased. He waved his hand to indicate Yoder to leave: “Don’t concern yourself with this matter. I have my own arrangements.”

    After Yoder left, Ahaz suddenly saw an unusual object on the carpet. He immediately frowned and went up to pick it up. This study had been cleaned by Ahaz himself as he was afraid that others would ruin his paintings.

    Ahaz looked at a small piece in his hand, and he recognized that the part should be from a robot. There would not be a robot in the whole Elmond house, so this thing was definitely brought by Yoder.

    He shouldn’t have let that idiot into his study. What if this thing left behind hurts his painting.

    The man’s angry and distressed expression was not like he was worried about the painting being hurt, but instead, it was like seeing the person on the painting getting hurt.

    However, before Ahaz could throw the object in his hand, he felt a sudden dizziness.

    ""

    Ahaz opened his eyes again just in time to meet a pair of amber eyes.

    The owner of these bright eyes was looking up at him, and his hair, which was still wet from the shower, was stuck to his face, making the young man look even more tender and soft.

    “K, will Fei Ming not come back for dinner tonight?”

    Ahaz was confused about the situation in front of him. He did not understand who this teenager was and why he appeared in front of him.

    Subconsciously frowning, Ahaz found himself unable to move while some information reached his brain.

    K is the name given by his master, and the Fei Ming mentioned by the teenager happens to be his master.

    Ahaz’s face immediately darkened. He had entered the body of a robot butler.
