No wonder Little Ike had seemed to deliberately change the topic earlier.
Very quickly...
Little Ike's hundreds of thousands of fans suddenly disappeared.
For more than ten minutes, there wasn't even a single comment or like.
Those who already knew the truth were watching secretly. Those who didn't know the truth shook with fear.
On the other side, a certain distinguished and outstanding Count suddenly seemed to understand something.
Just then, an assistant reported, "Sir, Miss Qi Yan is here."
"Oh!"
The Count suddenly stood up from the sofa.
Qi Yan, who had just entered, thought that the Count was welcoming her, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to greet him warmly.
Today, she had especially worn a silk court gown.
Her hair was styled like that of a medieval noble, and there was a seductive air about her.
She had come to the Count's palace for a magazine shoot which had already been arranged beforehand.
She 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.
However, she saw...
The Count immediately took out his phone and strode out the door.
He didn't even look at her.
It was as if she didn't exist!
What was going on?
Qi Yan was dumbfounded. She hurriedly turned around and followed, only to see the Count already talking on the phone.
He said in a deep and magnetic voice, as if he was promising someone, "I can allow you to come back for a shoot."
Uh, this...
This...
This...
On Lu An's side, the photography team was dumbfounded.
What was going on?
He had suddenly withdrawn consent last night, and was now agreeing again for some reason?
This Count... was he a chameleon?
This change was too fast and made no sense whatsoever!
Could they refuse?
Thinking 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."
Hahaha, you looked down on us before, but now, you're the one who will feel unworthy!
Whoa, whoa!
The person-in-charge looked calm on the surface and spoke very nicely, but he was already about to scream in his heart!
He actually turned the Count down!
He turned the Count down!
He was just a small citizen of Country X. Even if it was risky, this was something big enough for his descendants to brag about!
After all, do you dare refuse a Count? Do you?
Hahaha!
But very quickly, the person-in-charge stopped laughing.
"Oh, we indeed built our own palace.
"It's... It's paper mache, it's unremarkable! How can it compare with yours? W- what? You're coming over now??"
It was over!
After 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.
It was like his heart had been broken into pieces and sent flying!
It was over!
Was he coming here to condemn them?
And raze their palace to the ground?
After feeling stupefied for a few seconds, the person-in-charge weakly told Lu An and Fourth Brother everything.
"You better run!
"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."
He was too cowardly. He had immediately given the Count their address!
The 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!
The Count was probably already on his way over now.
Lu An was dumbfounded."Why should we run? If he comes, so be it. Did we break any laws?"
This isn't a crime. If he wants to punish you, on what basis can he do so?
"Speaking of which, how did the Count know that we built our own palace?"
Some people were puzzled.
It was clear that they had kept it a secret. Before it was announced, there was no way they would leak the location and photos. ƒ𝐫𝐞𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝐧o𝘷el - 🅽🅽novel
Could it be that their palace was too splendid, and passers-by had noticed it?
If not, how?
There were clearly no people here; it was all just grass.
"That, it's all my fault."
The 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."
As Ike spoke with an aggrieved face, he showed them a new comment which he got from the Count —
[The big shot you're talking about is actually me, right? Wait, I'm on my way!]
"Hehe!"
When they saw the comment on Ike's phone, everyone's hearts turned cold.
From his tone, it was clear that he was coming to settle a score!
What should they do?
"Let's run!"
As the person-in-charge spoke, he hurriedly started packing up.
Everyone started to rush around.
Lu An was speechless.
"So, is he bringing troops, or even hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, to flatten our place?"
The 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.
Although 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!
"Fourth Brother, didn't you make some armor?
"Take it out and let me put it on. Let him see the might of our Chinese female general!"
The little girl had a very solemn expression on her face. As she spoke, she was already about to change.
On the other side, Ike really...
He looked at Hao Hao, who clearly listened to everything his little sister said.
Fourth 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.
"Also, I believe in my little sister's capability. We didn't do anything wrong. Why should we run?
"Of course, maybe it's better for you to leave or hide if it's to do with your identity or whatever."
"But..."
Everyone had mixed feelings as they looked at the siblings, who were already standing righteously at the entrance.
The 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.
If they really left like this...
They weren't human!
Although...
They really didn't want to be human!
However, it really wasn't their fault. It was the fault of the fickle Count.
If the Count really was as heartless as they imagined, then...
