nNo wonder Little Ike had seemed to deliberately change the topic earlier.

nVery quickly…

nLittle Ike’s hundreds of thousands of fans suddenly disappeared.

nFor more than ten minutes, there wasn’t even a single comment or like.

nThose who already knew the truth were watching secretly. Those who didn’t know the truth shook with fear.

nOn the other side, a certain distinguished and outstanding Count suddenly seemed to understand something.

nJust then, an assistant reported, “Sir, Miss Qi Yan is here.”

n“Oh!”

nThe Count suddenly stood up from the sofa.

nQi Yan, who had just entered, thought that the Count was welcoming her, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to greet him warmly.

nToday, she had especially worn a silk court gown.

nHer hair was styled like that of a medieval noble, and there was a seductive air about her.

nShe had come to the Count’s palace for a magazine shoot which had already been arranged beforehand.

nShe was going to be on the cover of this week’s issue of a particular fashion magazine. It was all thanks to the Beijing big boss who pulled strings for her. She had to turn things around.

nHowever, she saw…

nThe Count immediately took out his phone and strode out the door.

nHe didn’t even look at her.

nIt was as if she didn’t exist!

nWhat was going on?

nQi Yan was dumbfounded. She hurriedly turned around and followed, only to see the Count already talking on the phone.

nHe said in a deep and magnetic voice, as if he was promising someone, “I can allow you to come back for a shoot.”

nUh, this…

nThis…

nThis…

nOn Lu An’s side, the photography team was dumbfounded.

nWhat was going on?

nHe had suddenly withdrawn consent last night, and was now agreeing again for some reason?

nThis Count… was he a chameleon?

nThis change was too fast and made no sense whatsoever!

nCould they refuse?

nThinking of what Lu An had said yesterday, the person-in-charge trembled, but still braced himself and said, “Thank you for your good intentions, Count, but we’ve already found a suitable location for the shoot. We’re currently in the middle of the shoot, and it’s really not appropriate to change locations at the last minute. We won’t disturb you, but I hope everything goes smoothly for you.”

nHahaha, you looked down on us before, but now, you’re the one who will feel unworthy!

nWhoa, whoa!

nThe person-in-charge looked calm on the surface and spoke very nicely, but he was already about to scream in his heart!

nHe actually turned the Count down!

nHe turned the Count down!

nHe was just a small citizen of Country X. Even if it was risky, this was something big enough for his descendants to brag about!

nAfter all, do you dare refuse a Count? Do you?

nHahaha!

nBut very quickly, the person-in-charge stopped laughing.

n“Oh, we indeed built our own palace.

n“It’s… It’s paper mache, it’s unremarkable! How can it compare with yours? W- what? You’re coming over now??”

nIt was over!

nAfter his body moved on its own and told the Count their location at the latter’s strong request, the person-in-charge felt like he had been doused with cold water.

nIt was like his heart had been broken into pieces and sent flying!

nIt was over!

nWas he coming here to condemn them?

nAnd raze their palace to the ground?

nAfter feeling stupefied for a few seconds, the person-in-charge weakly told Lu An and Fourth Brother everything.

n“You better run!

n“I’ll find a random reason and say that you left because you had something to do. He can’t pursue the matter with you guys. It’s on me.”

nHe was too cowardly. He had immediately given the Count their address!

nThe person-in-charge was so regretful that his intestines were about to turn green. At the very least, he could give them some time to escape!

nThe Count was probably already on his way over now.

nLu An was dumbfounded. “Why should we run? If he comes, so be it. Did we break any laws?”

nThis isn’t a crime. If he wants to punish you, on what basis can he do so?

n“Speaking of which, how did the Count know that we built our own palace?”

nSome people were puzzled.

nIt was clear that they had kept it a secret. Before it was announced, there was no way they would leak the location and photos.

nCould it be that their palace was too splendid, and passers-by had noticed it?

nIf not, how?

nThere were clearly no people here; it was all just grass.

n“That, it’s all my fault.”

nThe grand Mr. Ike raised his hand weakly. “He noticed online earlier, and even left me a comment. Fortunately, I didn’t reply. Now, he clearly knows that I was dropping hints on purpose.”

nAs Ike spoke with an aggrieved face, he showed them a new comment which he got from the Count —

nThe big shot you’re talking about is actually me, right? Wait, I’m on my way!

n“Hehe!”

nWhen they saw the comment on Ike’s phone, everyone’s hearts turned cold.

nFrom his tone, it was clear that he was coming to settle a score!

nWhat should they do?

n“Let’s run!”

nAs the person-in-charge spoke, he hurriedly started packing up.

nEveryone started to rush around.

nLu An was speechless.

n“So, is he bringing troops, or even hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, to flatten our place?”

nThe little girl had a puzzled expression on her face as she said, “Everyone takes responsibility for what they do. This matter started because of me. I’ll settle it for you no matter what.” It wasn’t like she hadn’t fought battles in ancient worlds before.

nAlthough her current body was much weaker than her internal energy in ancient times, it was definitely more than enough to wipe out these people who couldn’t fly or burrow into the ground!

n“Fourth Brother, didn’t you make some armor?

n“Take it out and let me put it on. Let him see the might of our Chinese female general!”

nThe little girl had a very solemn expression on her face. As she spoke, she was already about to change.

nOn the other side, Ike really…

nHe looked at Hao Hao, who clearly listened to everything his little sister said.

nFourth Brother, Lu Sihao, said, “I’m very sorry to have dragged all of you into this, but my little sister did all she could to make everything here in one night. Even if she doesn’t care, as her brother, I definitely won’t allow anyone to maliciously destroy it.

n“Also, I believe in my little sister’s capability. We didn’t do anything wrong. Why should we run?

n“Of course, maybe it’s better for you to leave or hide if it’s to do with your identity or whatever.”

n“But…”

nEveryone had mixed feelings as they looked at the siblings, who were already standing righteously at the entrance.

nThe matter had started because of them. They were the ones who had asked the other party to come for a photoshoot, but now there was a problem.

nIf they really left like this…

nThey weren’t human!

nAlthough…

nThey really didn’t want to be human!

nHowever, it really wasn’t their fault. It was the fault of the fickle Count.

nIf the Count really was as heartless as they imagined, then…
