Chapter 826 Richard's Transformation
Back home, Su Zixuan felt a warm feeling that he had been away for a long time, but compared to the upcoming swordsmanship competition, it seemed that the Duke of Stoke seemed to be a little preoccupied during this period of time, and he was unwilling to eat dinner, thinking about something dull , back home, it seems that because of the upcoming swordsmanship competition, everything has become different, there are still more noisy noble youths on the dinner table, in front of Su Zixuan, doubly boastful, but the only thing that makes people feel a little gratified What happened to him was that his older brother Richard, who was no longer as aggressive as before, became more humble and silent.

"Richard, how is your recent swordsmanship practice? Next time you face Starmark, are you sure you will win? You must know that if you can enter the final arena, you and him will have a great chance to reunite , compete again on the field, and face Starmark again, are you sure you can defeat him?" Seeing Richard who had not spoken for a long time at the banquet, the Duke of Stoke stopped his knife and fork and said suddenly.

The people around obviously didn't expect the Duke of Stoke to ask Richard suddenly, they all stopped eating and talking, and looked at Richard. In fact, they came back to the Duke of Stoke's mansion this time, and they also felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange Obviously, Richard is not as talkative as before, and he will not ask them for any rewards to create opportunities for them to get close to Su Zixuan. If you use the words they often hear, Richard should be mature.

Many people at the dinner table were talking more about the fact that Richard was placed in the hands of Starmark and Newton one after another. Perhaps because of these two disastrous defeats, Richard became much more stable.

When Richard heard the Duke of Stoke's words, he put down the knife and fork in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and said unhurriedly, "I'm sure, next time I face Starmark, within ten strokes, I will definitely Let him become a dead soul under the sword!"

Li Sansi shuddered suddenly. When Richard said this, he couldn't hide the murderous aura overflowing. He and Su Zixuan looked at each other, and they both obviously found that something was wrong with Richard.They couldn't verify the truth of Richard's words, but if it was true, it could only prove the fact that Richard had made great progress in swordsmanship in a short period of time.

The Duke of Stoke frowned slightly, looked at Richard and said, "Don't exaggerate, if you have such strength, you have already seen through the layout I gave you, so why haven't you explained the reason to me now, you If you are sure of defeating Starmark, you don’t need to say such words as letting others be the ghost of the sword. The Duke of Humington does have some ties with us, but these ties don’t need to be borne by your next generation. You don’t need to take his life. !"

The layout mentioned by Duke Stoke confused the noble youths around him, but Li Sansi knew that Duke Stoke was the subject of the set of swordsmanship practice given to Richard, and his swordsmanship , blending into the surrounding environment of this mansion in Stoke, if you can see through this layout, you will have a glimpse into the threshold of the Duke of Stoke's swordsmanship, which is equivalent to understanding the essence of the Duke of Stoke's swordsmanship. Chad said that he could solve Starmark within ten moves, so he could know what stage his swordsmanship had reached. From this, it was impossible to see through the layout of Duke Stoke's swordsmanship, so Duke Stoke believed that Richard was exaggerating The truth of the matter.

Mrs. Selena opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but she couldn't say anything. She just looked at her son next to her worriedly. During this period of time, she just felt that her son's personality was getting more and more gloomy, which made her have a faint feeling. Joyo worried.

Richard was not angry when he was scolded by the Duke of Stoke. He just nodded and said, "Understood, I won't say that in the future."

The Duke of Stoke apparently didn't expect that his son, who always said anything and contradicted everything, would be so obedient, but he was a little surprised. After all, during this period of time, Richard seemed to have changed a lot. He was somewhat relieved by the habit of a dude.

"Recently, we will build a new project in the east of Manchester in the name of the Goddess Heart. After a few days, during your break from practicing swords, you can go and have a look. As a project manager, you can see your performance, you I have to find something to do, I plan to hand over the new company to you first." The Duke of Stoke glanced at Richard and said slowly.

Mrs. Selina was overjoyed. For a long time, because of Richard's habitual style, the Duke of Stoke would never hand over any company to Richard, who has a strong desire for dominance. Now he made an exception and said that Richard would manage the company. Such a change was obviously due to a change in Richard's attitude.

Fully expecting Richard to show a flattered expression, Madam Selina turned her head, but saw a slightly smiling Richard, with a strange arc drawn at the corner of his mouth, only facing the Duke of Stoke "Hmm" and nodded.

Mrs. Selina's heart felt like a stone had been burned, and she was so bored. She felt like she couldn't enter this child's world. For some reason, Richard became more and more strange now.

Everything was reflected in Li Sansi's eyes. He intuitively felt that Richard was not lying when he said that he could deal with Xingmark within ten moves. It is quite natural for the Duke not to care about his decision to manage the company. If a person has the power to change his own destiny and has greater ambitions, a little benefit to him is just so insignificant.

Su Zixuan cast a worried look at Li Sansi, and then looked at his brother Richard. After answering the Duke of Stoke just now, Richard's eyes turned to Su Zixuan, smiling as usual, But it made Su Zixuan feel a very distant feeling, as if the brother smiling at him now was not the brother Richard he knew, but another person.

The Duke of Stoke left the table with a heavy heart. Because of the chirping noble youths and Richard's strange performance, the banquet made people feel not so happy. The young man shouted first, "How good is the weather today, the sun will set a step later, the environment here in the Duke of Stoke is so good, why don't we go for a walk in the hills and highlands outside, so we can feel such a beautiful scenery!"

Hilly Heights is a highland not far from Stoke’s mansion. The road comes down from the highland, and you can go directly to the huge Stoke Manor at the crossroads. At the same time, the highland is also the best viewing place. Standing on a high place, Edinburgh is far away, especially because of the presence of Su Zixuan, the beautiful scenery becomes even more beautiful. When the nobleman mentioned this, many people around agreed.

Su Zixuan also wanted to go for a walk. He hadn't come back for so long. After he came back, he missed the scenery here, but Li Sansi kept silent. Su Zixuan leaned over and seemed to say to Li Sansi's group, In fact, it was only aimed at Li Sansi alone, "Hey, how about it, let's go for a walk!?"

Before Li Sansi could answer, the noble young man next to him dragged his hand and pulled towards Su Zixuan and the others, "Go, go, of course we will go!"
