Chapter 1073: Chapter 1072: Concealment

Since the old steward of Dalken has already asked, they couldn’t ignore it either, ”Sorry, we don’t know you, so we can’t visit your place. However, your steward just wouldn’t leave, and we couldn’t do anything about it.

No worries, it’s also my fault for not considering it thoroughly. If I suddenly arrived in a strange place and someone I didn’t know invited me to dinner, I might refuse as well, let alone two lovely young ladies.

The old master of Dalken still smiled with politeness; he really knew how to speak. His words didn’t show any displeasure and showed consideration for them. Ba Lvluo thought, this man indeed had a business-like facade.

I have something to discuss with the two young ladies. Would they be able to spare a moment? We could talk right here in the hotel, how about that?

At that moment, the hotel manager came over and led them to a small room to sit down and talk. The bustling lobby was indeed not a suitable place for conversation.

So, the three of them went to this small but decently decorated room and sat down.

Before Master Dalken could speak, Xuran started, ”If you are here regarding the spaceship, I’m afraid I must apologize. Our spaceship is very important to us, and we won’t sell it.

Master Dalken didn’t expect Yanran to be so direct. He was momentarily stunned and asked tentatively, ”No matter how much money, it wouldn’t be for sale?

Yanran firmly nodded: There’s nothing else to discuss on this matter, Mr. Dalken.

”Alright, what a pity then,” said Master Dalken as he stood up. ”Since that’s the case, I won’t disturb the ladies any further.

As he was about to leave, he looked at Ba Lv with a smile, nodded, and then walked out.

Not long after the two returned to their room, Jiang Cheng also came back. The reason he was delayed for so long was that he had seen an overwhelming amount of star maps at the local Space Corps, which cost him time.

When he heard that the spaceship’s fuel hadn’t been replenished, he instead told Ba Lvluo not to worry.

This time, Jiang Cheng discovered a vast array of star charts at the Space Corps on Urgan Planet, far surpassing those on Delmar Planet, which made him ecstatic.

The more star charts, the better he could find a planet closest to Earth, without wandering aimlessly or groping blindly through the universe.

Therefore, he wanted to stay here a couple more days to hopefully find the most accurate route to Earth.

After a few hurried words with Yanran and the others, Jiang Cheng left again. Preoccupied, he didn’t notice the hesitant expressions on the two girls’ faces.

And seeing their teacher so busy, Yanran and Ba Lvluo didn’t tell him about Dalken’s issue; they had already refused Dalken’s request, after all. It could wait until later.

Since they didn’t need to leave immediately, the two went to purchase some essential travel supplies.

Now, with ample time, there was no need to rush.

To be honest, Dalken’s steward’s son wasn’t a bad young man. In fact, aside from his strong possessive desire, he could be considered a good child.

He was a good student, and although handling people was his shortcoming, considering his background and the lack of parental love, it was understandable.

Moreover, he had a decent upbringing; though he was reserved, he was considered polite.

Compared to other wealthy second-generation individuals, Master Dalken’s son was simply an angel. Besides his passion for spaceships, he had no other bad habits.

This gave Dalken’s steward comfort but also intensified the feeling of failing his son.

Now, he felt restless for not being able to fulfill his son’s small request.

Yanran had immense wealth, rivaling nations, but he was still human and powerless in some aspects.

Faced with the fact that those two were obviously not from Ulda Planet, Shaowen said as much. The spaceship wasn’t for sale, no matter the amount of money. It wasn’t a matter of money.

In short, there was no negotiating this issue.

Master Dalken couldn’t bear to see his son’s crestfallen look; it pained him. If possible, he wished he could bear this suffering instead.

Dalken’s steward got up, deciding to find those two young ladies again. He wasn’t giving up yet; for his son, he wanted to persuade them, hoping they’d change their minds.

”Stop right there!” The booming voice surprised the hurriedly departing master of Dalken; he didn’t need to turn around to know who dared to be so bold.

A person with a stature similar to his blocked his way, eyes suspiciously scrutinizing him: ”What are you up to? Within this short time, I’ve seen you rush in and out twice.”

The person said, ”This isn’t like you at all.”

Dalken’s steward didn’t reply, just sighed heavily.

”What, troubles in business?” the person inquired.

”No.

Then what makes you so restless? Ah...” The person’s demeanor tightened, ”Is it for my nephew?”

Before his brother, Master Dalken stopped hiding and sighed again.

What’s wrong with my nephew? Speak!” his brother urged with concern.

Dalken’s steward’s brother, unmarried, had nothing but praise for his nephew but held a high position and rarely had time to care for him.

”Is he at home? I’ll go check on him.” His brother lifted a leg to leave.

Master Dalken grabbed him, ”What’s the point of going now? It’s useless and will only upset him more.”

His brother halted: ”What exactly is going on, explain!”

Master Dalken led his brother to a quiet place and recounted his son’s despondency over a spaceship.

His brother chuckled, a minor issue causing such a fluster? Surely, love provokes confusion.

Seeing his brother laugh, Dalken’s steward said nothing and stormed off.

His brother grabbed him, ”Don’t rush, first tell me, do you know where the spaceship is?”

Seeing his brother nod, he said, ”Let’s go, show me. I’d like to see what’s so remarkable about this spaceship. He told his brother with a grin, ”Coincidentally, I have friends in the research department; they’ve developed a new spaceship.”

Seeing his brother’s confusion, he added irritably, ”My dear brother, has stress muddled your mind? Come on, trying to explain now would be pointless. First, take me to the hangar where Yanran and the rest’s spaceship is parked.”

Every planet has strict regulations; foreign ships, especially exceeding a specific size, are not permitted to fly freely in the planetary airspace, especially armed ships.
