Alien world

Chapter 95. 94. Friends, Benefits

"The countess is like a spoiled girl."

Winchet Family Estate.

Ms. Wine, Della, and Michael sat around and listened to Annan's narration.

Annan felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange at this time, but he continued: "She is a little naive, a little ignorant, and a little clumsy..."

The three looked at each other.

"Do you mean the countess?"

"Is there no one else in the Earl's Manor besides Maria?"

The eyes of Ms. Wine and Michael became more and more strange.

"Maria?"

"Uh...it's the countess." Before they had a deeper misunderstanding, Annan explained: "She was very natural in the count's manor. She was not guarded against the outside world, and she behaved purely...for example, she yearned for love and liked to stand barefoot on flowers. Hai. Clumsy and reckless, even if you look through the closet, you will get stuck and ask for help. You want to be brave enough to stand on a chair to get a book...but maybe this is a nobleman?"

The countess of the manor made Annan more relaxed than during the banquet.

"Living in a cocoon woven with honey, I haven't experienced danger and pain, so that I still maintain my innocence."

Michael looked at Madam Margaery who had more experience.

"Wine Lady?"

He couldn't figure out whether Annan was immersed in the countess's tenderness, or if he just had feelings for the young girl who was forced to marry the countess who could be her grandfather.

"Annan, you will face many temptations here."

The wine lady also didn't know, and could only warn Annan based on her own experience: "A young, loverless, and warlock king of the North, your attraction to women in Breeze City is like gold coins at the feet of refugees."

"The countess is no exception?"

"My sweetheart, you are the King of the North, and you will also be the youngest city lord in history..." Ms. Meijiu sighed softly, "Why do you think we gathered by your side?"

This is a good question, Annan never thought about it.In other words, he never thought about the friends around him from the perspective of interests-that would make emotions like rotten apples, hard to swallow.

But it doesn't mean he doesn't know.

"Benefits?"

The black pupils gradually became quiet.

"Cough...I just want to watch Annan grow into the real king of the North." Michael felt that he had no other ideas.

The wine lady looked at Michael and said nothing.

"What? Did I say the wrong thing?"

The wine lady remained silent.

"Uh... you want me to avoid it?"

The wine lady nodded, and Michael used the battering staff as a cane, "Okay, I'll go outside and enjoy the cool summer night wind."

Michael walked out of the living room, and the head maid standing on the stairs also avoided privacy, and only the wine lady and Della were left in front of the sofa.

"Annan, I am in the same situation as that Countess."

The Wine Lady tells of the crisis facing the Annan Winchet family:

Relying on the winemaking industry and the terrifying business sense of the wine lady's husband, Torrey Winchet, the Winchet family has become famous. In just a dozen years, about one-fifth of the wine in Prang Boon County is produced in Winchet. Special family winery.But five days ago, the most important winery of the Winchet family was ransacked by bandits and burned to the ground.

Nearly half of the red wine of the Winchet family is stored there.

This is not a total loss—these wines have already been sold, and only the transportation is needed. This looting not only caused heavy losses to Ms. Fine Wine, but also triple the compensation because of the failure to deliver the goods in the contract—this is something that Ms. Fine Wine cannot afford. expensive price.

The Winchet family is calm on the surface, but in fact, the dark tide is surging.

"So we gather around you to help you, and we hope you will help us."

"Lady Maria, too?"

"I don't know. But if she is really as simple as you said, she will not be able to keep the legacy left by Earl Morgan..."

Torrey Winchet...would the wine lady's dead husband be a pact with the devil?

At this time, the two doors of the living room were pushed open.

The Wine Lady stopped talking.

"I don't want to disturb you either..." Michael pointed helplessly outside the manor, "The usurper is here."

Annan and Michael leave the living room to pick up Olmedo.

"Annan still doesn't know the difference between candy and sugar-coated poison."

In the quiet living room, the wine lady stared at Della.

"Keep an eye on him and protect him until..."

……

From the meadow came the cry of nightingales and insects.

"I heard that you came back from the Earl's mansion and rushed over. Did you find anything?"

"No."

However, Annan told Olmedo that the countess at the manor and the countess at the banquet had different temperaments, and his thoughts diverged: "Will the real countess be replaced by the rat man?"

"Don't say that to anyone else...but the Ratmen do cause chaos by pretending to be us."

"If I knew she was a rat man, I would have been a guest at the manor for a while..." Annan said regretfully.

Olmedo thought he wanted to investigate the Countess further: "There will be a chance."

The busy Olmedo left quickly, and Michael and Ms. Wine also bid farewell to Annan not long after.

Ms. Wine didn't ask Annan for help when she left.

Annan returned to the bedroom and moved away the spider bottle that Firecrow was staring at.

"You can't eat this."

Then he dug out the letter that Firecrow brought on the day of the banquet.

[To my brother:

Do not believe any letters!
Only the letter asking you to ask for help from the Lawrence family, other than that, we haven't sent you any letters, and don't trust what you are asked to do in it.

This Firecrow will help us.If you want to say something, give the letter to Firecrow, and it will bring it back.

Next is your second sister's words:
Levi's, I miss you so much...you don't know how happy we are when you know you're okay.Come back if you get bullied over there, this is your home.Don't worry I'll laugh at you, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have always bullied you... I realized that nothing is more important than family...

By the way, your current handwriting is really ugly.I just said that the elder sister's method is useless at all.But don't fail to write us back.

——Your family]

Annan did not want to have any contact with Levi's family, even by correspondence.

He didn't want to take advantage of the emotions among the Reeves family.The more replies they pretended to be Levi's, the more hope they rekindled, until they learned the truth, the building collapsed, and everything disappeared as the bubbles exploded.

But doing nothing will only make them more worried and even come running.Annan had no choice but to pick up the pen and keep it aloof:
[My sisters:

Don't worry, I ignored that fake letter.I... lost some memory, even the Common Language, which is why the writing is so ugly.You don’t have to worry about me, I’m fine here…]
