The sea of stars was vast.

The 90,000 ton long-distance starship moved like a whale wandering amongst the stars, its broad back providing shelter from the nuclear magnetic resonance waves.

It was six hours before they reached the Imperial capital.

Outside the window, asteroids rolled by, and black clouds spread and dispersed. The interior was calm, and luxurious, thick, woven carpets covered the aristocratic first-class cabin. A maid in red high heels stepped inside gracefully, respectfully delivering the red wine into the cabin.

Candlelight and dim lighting reflected off the intricately carved, luxurious doors. After a quick look around, the maid lowered her head, saluted the noble in front of her, and quietly withdrew from the cabin.

All the way until she returned to the back room.

A group of little sisters all gathered around, their faces full of excitement, “They really opened the wine? That’s a 600,000 credit red wine! What kind of nobility is it, it must be at least a Marquis––”

The maid took a deep breath. Of course she recognized the man inside!

Young master Shao Yu, who was once a survival show rookie. He’d been exiled to the Federation, all the way until four years ago when the Duchess had acknowledged him. The Imperial media reported that the Duchess, a strong woman with an iron hand, had hugged her long lost son and cried bitterly. It was very touching.

The Duchess’ approval ratings had gone up by 12%that day! Young master Shao Yu had also become the number one bachelor in the Empire––

The little sisters scrambled over each other to ask, “Who is it in the first-class cabin? A tyrannical Marquis?! In TV, isn’t it always like, you accidentally spill the wine, but the other party doesn’t blame you and instead falls in love with you at first sight––”

“......” The maid, “How could that be! This is a 600,000 credit bottle of wine! And the-the lord already has a lover, an especially good looking one, even more beautiful than an entertainment star!”

Everyone started to gossip, “Are the feelings between them good?”

“It should be... no, it must be good.” The maid spoke in a low tone as she recalled the atmosphere in the cabin just now. However, she suddenly shivered.

There seemed to be something wrong somewhere, but she couldn’t pinpoint what it was.

In the Imperial star ship ‘Frost’, first class cabin.

Strains from a symphony echoed softly. Shao Yu attentively removed the wine knife, his delicate and beautiful fingers gently stroking along the neck of the wine bottle. The 600,000 credit wine came into contact with the sweet air.

It held the rich fragrance of black roses and had a charming, sour sweetness.

Wu Jin’s expression was indifferent, and he was somewhat expressionless. His eyes reflected the splendor of the cabin, but his eyes didn’t seem to be focused on anything.

Shao Yu handed him a glass.

“Your favorite wine.” Shao Yu’s voice was elegant, like the sound of a cello.

His voice held no burrs. It seemed that even his vocal system had been optimized with the best genes, and it was only his breathing that came quick and sharp, like a spitting snake.
