After the conversation, the Earl summoned the butler waiting outside the living room and instructed, "Prepare a sumptuous dinner and guest room for our visitor."
"No need, I'm leaving soon."
Lu Li halted the departing butler, rose from the soft sofa, and bade farewell to the Count, "Thank you, Emerald Dream, for enlightening me."
"But I have a different perspective."
Lu Li picked up the coffee cup, poured its contents onto the expensive carpet, released the cup to let it shatter on the low table, selected a sharp fragment, and suddenly stabbed it into his chest.
"What is seen is not reality."
Afternoon, shade, fragrant grass, gentle breeze.
The light gradually spread around. The Count, with a faint smile, the speechless butler, and the expressionless maid.
The light ultimately filled Lu Li's vision, enveloping him entirely.
...
"Lu Li... Lu Li... wake up..."
Anna's calling voice sounded in his ear.
Lu Li opened his eyes.
