"Dear Mary, you treat
so well."
Moses looked overwheld with a mix of fear and gratitude, cupping Mary's not-so-beautiful cheek in his hands, gave her another kiss, and said, "Mary, I love you!"
"Dear Moses, I love you too." Mary said sweetly, sounding more like an 18 or 19-year-old girl rather than a woman in her forties, full of a coquettish tone.
Then Mary asked in confusion, "Darling, why do those people want to kill you?"
"Ah! They are assassins hired by my business rivals, wanting to assassinate , so I need to stay here these days. Mary, please don't let anyone know I'm hiding here." Moses said earnestly.
"Don't worry, darling, I definitely won't spread the word. If they dare co again, I'll definitely chase them away." A fierce look appeared in Mary's eyes!
"Oh! My love for you, I can't repay you enough!"
Moses lifted Mary's cheek again, kissed her passionately, and then tore at Mary's clothes as the two quickly embraced and rolled onto the bed!
Soon, seductive moans began to softly emanate from the room!
...
After returning to the hotel, Lin Fan parted ways with Mouse. However, before Lin Fan could get out of the car, he saw a familiar figure flash by—who else could it be but Gu Qingcheng!
To Lin Fan's surprise, Gu Qingcheng was greeted by two n dressed as bodyguards. After she got into the car, it drove away leisurely.
Lin Fan walked to the front desk, aware of the hotel's policy that anyone picking up guests needed to register there. He asked, "Who just invited that Huaxia beauty?"
"Sir, those were the bodyguards of Count Nick. They were here to invite Miss Gu to a banquet!" the young lady at the front desk smiled.
"Count Nick?"
The na sounded unfamiliar to Lin Fan.
However, since the consortium gala, after being introduced by Deke, Gu Qingcheng's na has resounded throughout the business world. Indeed, Gu Qingcheng has been quite busy lately, as many people believe she has aligned with Deke, wanting to connect with her to leverage their connection with Deke. Invitations constantly flood into Gu Qingcheng's hands.
Lin Fan hesitated for a mont and then quickly took out his phone to call Deke. Once connected, without saying anything else, Lin Fan asked directly, "Do you know Count Nick?"
"He is an up-and-coming businessman in Paris. I'm still investigating his background. I'm not clear on the specifics, but he seems to have so connection with the Emperor." Deke said truthfully.
"The Emperor?"
Lin Fan raised an eyebrow as a figure imdiately erged in his mind!
The Emperor has four Guardians, and isn't one of them self-styled as a Count?
"Seems like I need to check it out!"
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, made up his mind, and imdiately rushed out of the hotel, started the car, and quickly followed.
With Lin Fan's driving skills, it didn't take long to catch up to the black Bentley that Gu Qingcheng was in. Lin Fan didn't hurry, maintaining a steady pace behind it as both cars gradually made their way out of the city center to an old castle in the suburbs!
The castle looked very old, clearly not newly built. At this mont, many luxury cars were already parked outside the castle, and notable businessn walked into the castle one after another.
The Bentley that Gu Qingcheng was in drove directly into the castle, but Lin Fan's car was stopped!
However, this small obstacle couldn't hinder Lin Fan. He parked the car in the parking lot, lit a cigarette, and strolled around the castle. When he reached the back of the castle and saw no one around, he used his legs to push off hard from the ground, and his body soared into the air, gracefully leaping into the castle as if a majestic bird spreading its wings!
The interior of the castle was brilliantly decorated, with an artificial lake surrounding an old and luxurious villa, creating a beautiful environnt. The warm white lights lit up the entire castle brightly!
Even though it was late autumn, the castle was planted with many evergreens, presenting a lush and vibrant scene everywhere.
"Hey! Who are you? How did you get in? What sneaky business are you up to?" At this mont, a young man in servant attire suddenly appeared in front of Lin Fan and asked with a hostile expression, seeing Lin Fan hunched over.
"Oh! It's nothing, I just urgently need to pee and am looking for a place to relieve myself." Lin Fan covered his stomach, pretending to be in discomfort.
Upon hearing this, the young man imdiately showed a disdainful look. Those invited were all renowned guests from various fields, yet this guy lacked the decency and wanted to pee in the bushes? How audacious!
"The bathroom is in that direction; you're not allowed to pee anywhere you like, or you'll bear the consequences!" The young man glanced at Lin Fan dismissively and was about to turn away!
However, Lin Fan wasn't about to give him this chance. He reached out and delivered a blow to the back of the young man's head. The young man's body tilted and fell toward the ground, and Lin Fan quickly reached out to catch his falling body. Seeing no one around, he dragged him into a patch of tall grass!
One must admit, his nerve for causing trouble was remarkable; his face remained calm, not a bead of sweat, and he even smiled. Truly seasoned to perfection!
Not long after, when Lin Fan reappeared, he had already changed into the young man's attire. It's worth noting, no matter what he wore, a handso man like him still shone like a firefly in the night. Lin Fan was very proud of his looks.
After crossing a small path, Lin Fan arrived at the front of the ancient and luxurious villa, where Gu Qingcheng elegantly stepped down from the Bentley. If it were in Paris, everyone would know Gu Qingcheng's na, and many prestigious guests at the banquet greeted her.
Yet Lin Fan's gaze shifted, and when he saw the figure at the villa's entrance, his pupils involuntarily contracted!
There stood a man who appeared to be in his fifties, wearing a custom-tailored tailcoat, hair slicked back in a pompadour, smiling, exuding a noble gentleman's aura.
But what was surprising was that the man looked only about 1.6 ters tall. As the saying goes, fair skin makes up for ten ugliness, height makes up for a hundred ugliness, but this man had neither, more like a dwarf. If it weren't for his status and position, people probably wouldn't give him a second glance.
Gu Qingcheng stepped off the car and ca before the dwarf man. The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the dwarf man courteously bent his arm, following the gentlemanly custom of foreigners.
Gu Qingcheng gave a charming smile, took the dwarf man's arm, and walked into the villa with him!
"Damn it, that shorty is definitely up to no good!"
Lin Fan cursed in frustration; there was no denying that he was jealous!
But jealousy aside, Lin Fan couldn't just rush in and hit soone. After all, Lin Fan still didn't understand the dwarf man's identity fully. If he truly was one of the Emperor's four Guardians, things could get complicated!
