Caelum finished his words by collecting and arranging the golden and silver papers, then rose and asked Gareth to leave the Spring Rain Tower building."Boss, did you get the silver in full?" "Yes, the outcome is considered good to some extent."Gareth rubbed his hands together with a sly smile: "How much did it reach then?"Caelum looked at the faint flashes of light emerging gradually on the eastern horizon, and answered spontaneously: "Twenty-nine thousand, approximately.""Twenty-nine... huh? And did Miss Vesper agree to that simply?" "She certainly didn't agree." "Then how... ah, could it be that you robbed her by force and assassinated her money?"And when Gareth saw Caelum nodding his head in confirmation, he couldn't hide his surprise in his secret, and suddenly felt some sincere pity towards Vesper.Most likely she will suffer a stroke from the intensity of rage, right?As for Caelum, he didn't give the matter any attention, calculated the remaining time, then issued his i

Inside the Valerius Estate.Many people within the Xiao residence had woken up early, making quite a bit of noise.The chefs in the back kitchen were busy preparing dishes, apprentices were washing vegetables and tending to the stoves, and everything was bustling with activity.Maids in various courtyards were serving the masters and madras, helping them wash and dress.Servants and handymen took advantage of the rainy weather to wash the courtyard walls and the corners of the pavilions.The busiest place of all was the front courtyard.Several coachmen had prepared the carriages early, ready to dispatch those lords who worked in the government offices to check in.The steward and gatekeepers were recording the purposes of visitors who had been waiting at the gate since early morning, or accepting visiting cards and sending people to deliver them to various compounds in the back.However, in the quiet courtyard lo

Even after having just experienced major events, facing this dramatic interlude, Celeste and the Old Patriarch could not help but reveal a few smiles.Seeing the smiles on their faces, the middle-aged man Gareth grew even more anxious:"Marquis, General, this matter is of grave importance; if we are late, everything will be ruined."Seeing this, the Old Patriarch had no choice but to wave his hand, signaling him to remain calm and not be impatient.Then Celeste recounted the events once more, which finally dispelled Gareth's concerns.Seeing this, alongside his relief, Gareth could not help but feel ashamed as he said:"This subordinate was incompetent, failing to notify the Marquis in time; I beg the Marquis to punish me."The Old Patriarch smiled and consoled him: "It's not your fault. After all, you were gravely injured that night, you..."Before he finished speaking, the Old Patriarch looked him over and uttered an "Eh?":"Your injuries are healed?"Gareth belatedly touched his ch

POV: CaelumIn a residence near the General Administration Office, Julian paced back and forth across the spacious hall, raising his head from time to time to gaze into the pitch-black night outside. Worry and tension were clearly visible on his countenance.Meanwhile, on the adjoining master's chair, a middle-aged man dressed in simple black attire sipped tea quietly from a blue-and-white porcelain cup. Perhaps the irritating rustling sound he made while drinking tea was what annoyed Julian, causing him to stop pacing abruptly and scold with a frown:"Lord Liu, are you still unconcerned about the fate of your nephew Bastian?"The Left Administrator of the Silverstream Prefecture administration office who wore black, raised his teacup and smiled calmly:"Second Brother, Bastian is a grown and mature man, and it is normal for him not to return home sometimes. What is the reason for all this worry?""If it were in ordina

Morning of the next day... With the early dawn and the calm of daybreak. Caelum woke up and dressed quietly, learning from Butterfly that the time had long passed early morning. "Is it this late then." He had gone to sleep early yesterday as soon as he heard the news of Celeste's departure from Silverstream Prefecture.Naturally, after the long and exhausting mental fatigue of previous days, he was in urgent and necessary need of some rest and quiet. Butterfly helped him adjust the collar of his neatly arranged clothes and said with a gentle smile: "Son-in-law, I saw you sleeping so deeply that I didn't dare wake you up." Caelum nodded his head, looked at the rainy weather outside the window, and asked with interest: "Are there any new news reaching the mansion today?" As if she had fully anticipated this question, Bu

POV: CaelumThat voice...?!Caelum didn't even have a moment to think; he immediately raised the side curtain and looked straight outside.Beneath the dim sky, the rain fell like a dense curtain.In the opposite diagonal direction, a carriage was approaching them head-on.The horse was a southern pony breed, calm with slow steps.As for the rear compartment, it was made of the usual reddish-brown wood, completely devoid of any ornamentation, and carried no family crest or sign indicating its origin.Compared to the luxurious canopy of the Marquis's carriage that Caelum was riding in, the difference was as stark as heaven and earth.As the small and large carriages—the ordinary and the luxurious—crossed paths, Caelum's gaze met one of the passengers in that carriage.How could one describe that person's appearance?Slightly wavy brown hair, coarse eyebrows, a pear-shaped face, a hooked nos

After a long hesitation, she reached out to gently close Caelum's mouth, saying with a flushed, bashful face:"Stop... don't say anymore." Caelum blinked his eyes, his gaze dropping downward as a sign of his compliance in keeping quiet. Evangeline instantly withdrew her hand and tucked her head entirely inside the soft fur collar, leaving only two wandering eyes searching for a place to rest. At that, Caelum stopped praising, lest he cause her to suffocate amidst that thick collar. After a brief silence, he shifted the conversation to serious matters:"Yesterday, I had a long and deep discussion with Master Chen, conveying the wishes of the Elder Sister and the Grand Patriarch word for word. Master Chen's response was..." Caelum noticed Evangeline cautiously poking her head out, revealing her flushed earlobe, and smiled with deliberate mischief. Last Updated : 2026-08-30Read more

They knew the Grand Patriarch, Evangeline, and Celeste very well.Conversely, Caelum, as the Xiao family's son-in-law, was a relatively recent face among the academy students.Amidst these whispers and murmured words.Caelum, accompanied by Evangeline and Sylvia, reached the courtyard of Julian's residence, but found it empty.After asking a couple of passing students, they learned that Master Julian and the rest of the professors were outside the main library building preparing a new lecture hall.Caelum raised his brows in curiosity, surprised at their efficiency. Only three days had passed since he discussed the exhibition with Master Julian, and they had already completed the preparations this fast?Yet he guessed to himself that they had probably just renovated and modified an old building, so he didn't dwell on it.He headed toward the library building accompanied by Evangeline and Sylvia.Perhaps due to her rare visits to such cultural places, Evangeline felt everything she s

POV: CaelumMaster Julian stood with a solemn and stern expression.No sooner had he finished speaking than he directly unrolled the calligraphy scroll in his hands.Lines of brilliant, gleaming characters emerged one after another for all to see.Although it still fell under the category of the "Distinctive School," those letters were completely different from Alexander's previous style.In fact, it was true running script!Every single stroke and dot was not bound by the rigid rules of horizontal and vertical lines; instead, they appeared slightly slanted and varied in size.Yet, they harbored unique aesthetics that differed fundamentally from Alexander's style.—The sense of unrestrained freedom and flowing liberation was clearly visible on the paper."This... is a new style?"Harry, and Master Harry Vance, as a teacher at Silverstream Academy, possessed vast experience and indescribable knowledge.He had long been given the opportunity to contemplate Alexander's style in its advan

If he had felt a slight attraction upon seeing the running script earlier, seeing that conceptual painting materialized on paper now caused him to completely lose his balance.His entire body trembled from deep emotion and agitation.In turn, Percy opened his eyes wide in utter shock; young and arrogant as he was, he was neither narrow-minded nor blind."Grandfather says that when the artistic meaning in calligraphy reaches the level of materializing scenes, it means attaining the realm of perfection and mastery. So that scroll is...""Calligraphy at the absolute realm of perfection!?"Percy couldn't believe his eyes at all.Nor was he willing to believe that the scroll was written by the person he had always despised and considered a useless kept husband.Yet the innovative and brilliant running script characters on the paper left him no room for doubt."How can this be? He has actually elevated his new characters to the realm of perfection?!"Percy vividly remembered the look of dee
