"Cuckoo?"
Xiao Bai raised its head, its dark eyes filled with confusion.
Mingmei didn't offer any explanation. She smiled and glanced a few times in the direction Chen Feng had been standing before before turning and leaving.

Chapter 360 Main World
P.S.: The little bonus chapter I promised everyone.
Extra 1
……
The capital of the Kingdom of Lorchin, Gerchi.
dong dong dong-
"Come in."
A cool, clear female voice rang out from inside the room.
The door to the room was pushed open the next second, and Mir, dressed in work clothes, walked in from outside with some documents in his hand.
"Your Highness, this is a document sent to you by His Majesty the King. Please take a look."
"Just leave it there, I'll check it in a bit."
Amya didn't even look up before speaking.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Mil nodded, reached out and placed the file in front of Amya's desk, straightening it. Watching Amya busy at work, Mil opened his mouth, as if wanting to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
Seemingly noticing Mir's unusual behavior, Amya put down her pen and looked up at her.
"What's wrong? Is there something else?"
"Um...yes, Your Highness, it's Countess Violet. She's here again. She'd like to invite you to dinner and say she'd like to discuss the cooperation with you again."
“Vell…”
Amy rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
Violet is the only newly added noble in the Kingdom of Lorqing this year, and also the only countess in the Kingdom of Lorqing in the past ten years.
The Vil family is one of the most active conglomerates in Western Europe in recent years, mainly involved in energy and network engineering construction, and even in the military field.
It was because she was engaging in large-scale cooperation with the Kingdom of Lorqing and was offering very generous terms that Amya's father, the King of Lorqing, exceptionally granted her the title of Earl of the Kingdom.
Violet herself is known for her decisive and efficient methods, and is hailed as a black rose with thorns in the business world. She and Amya are both among the top ten outstanding unmarried women in 2050.
Logically speaking, even if Amya didn't like being invited to dinner by a newly crowned countess who was in the spotlight, she shouldn't be bothered.
But rather...
Countess Violet is a lesbian!
She's an openly lesbian!
As soon as she arrived, she made no attempt to hide her affection for Amya and began to pursue her.
He tried to invite Amya to dinner several times, but she refused each time.
Even so, Violet remained persistent, frequently appearing near Amya's company or entering the company under the guise of discussing cooperation.
This annoyed Amy to no end.
Even though Amya had made it very clear that she didn't like women, Violet still refused to give up.
"Your Highness, how about... I go and reject her for you?"
Mir tentatively opened his mouth.
A woman like Amy, who possesses both beauty and ability, naturally has many suitors. As her assistant, Mir has helped her turn down many invitations.
Although this situation is a little... um... special, it's okay, we can just refuse as usual.
"never mind."
Amy waved her hand, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and said, "I'll go. We can't keep having her come here. It's always better to resolve things."
"Yes, I understand, Your Highness."
Mir accepted the order and left.
With a bang, the door slammed shut, leaving Amy alone in the office once again.
Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, Amy stood up from her seat, walked to the window, and her eyes were filled with longing.
"It's been three months... Where have you been?"
Amy murmured something.
Chen Feng's disappearance is one of the biggest news stories in the world, and also one of the biggest unsolved mysteries.
After his final, world-shaking performance, there was no further news of him.
Some people said he withdrew from the competition, but this claim was quickly refuted by the organizers of "Thief Game," who stated that they had not received any information about Chen Feng leaving the competition.
Some people say Chen Feng was kidnapped, while others say he went on an adventure in a primeval forest.
There are all sorts of conflicting claims, but none of them contain any substantial evidence.
Amy also tried to find Chen Feng, but to no avail.
Of course, it wasn't just her. International actress Anna, and many others, tried to find him, especially the Leighton Group, which had just been robbed before Chen Feng disappeared. They were practically frantic.
They searched the world for Chen Feng and Wendy, hoping to recover the stolen treasure of King Cross. However, after two months of searching, and even after the effective pursuit period had passed, only Wendy appeared with 30% of King Cross's treasure.
However, there is still no news about the remaining 70% of the treasures or Chen Feng himself.
Looking at the moon outside the window, Amya seemed to see that white figure performing under the moonlight, elegant and composed, with no sign of tension on his face.
He was like a gentleman who stepped out of a story, every move he made made people feel at ease, even... attached to him.
“Your Highness, the carriage is ready. Shall we depart now?” Mir’s voice rang out again from outside the door.
Amya turned her gaze away from the window, quickly composed herself, and then turned to open the door.
Looking at Mir standing outside the door, Amya said softly, "Let's go."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Mir didn't ask any more questions and simply followed Amya outside.
Leaving the company building, I got into Amya's private car and drove towards the location sent by Violet.
Not long after.
With a screech of brakes, the vehicle came to a smooth stop in front of a high-end Italian restaurant.
Amya led Mir out of the car, handed the keys to the waiter at the door to park the car, and gave him a 50 euro tip.
By this time, Violet was already waiting at the door.
With neat, short blond hair, wearing a men's button-down black suit with a clean white shirt underneath, he stood straight at the door, looking like a noble young master straight out of a television drama.
"It is an honor to have you grace us with your presence, Miss Amy."
Violet stepped forward, her exquisitely beautiful face, so delicate that it was hard to tell if she was male or female, wore a smile and gave a slight bow.
"I am also honored."
Amya forced a smile, intentionally or unintentionally distancing herself from Vil, as if to distance herself.
Violet, however, seemed oblivious, maintaining her polite smile and extending her hand in a "please" gesture.
"Miss Amy, I hope we can have a pleasant dining experience."
Amy nodded slightly and walked inside first, with Mir following closely behind, intentionally or unintentionally blocking Amy and Vil from each other.
Violet's expression remained unchanged throughout, walking beside Amya as if nothing had happened.
We entered the room.
Violet reached out and pulled out a chair for her: "Please sit down, Your Highness."
Amya smiled and nodded politely, then sat down. At her signal, Mir stepped forward to stand beside her, being extremely careful.
After Vil sat down, Amya spoke directly:
"Ville, didn't you want to discuss some details of the collaboration? What are they about? We can begin now."
"Is Your Highness in a hurry?"
"That's it."
Amya didn't give the person in front of her any face. On such a special day as Valentine's Day in China, she would rather go back to keep the pigeon that Chen Feng had left for her than stay here and have dinner with a woman who had special feelings for her.
Even if this woman is beautiful enough.
……
Chapter 361 Amya's Change of Attitude
Despite Amya's estrangement, Violet didn't seem to react anything amiss, remaining seated opposite her with a perfectly normal expression.
A waiter pushed a cart to the two of them.
"Your wine has decanted properly. Would you like to have dinner served now, Countess?"
"Please do it now, thank you."
"You're welcome."
The waiter smiled and reached out to pour red wine into the glasses in front of Amya and Violet.
At the same time, another waiter pushed a food cart to the table, laid a clean white tablecloth in front of the two people, and placed delicate sterling silver cutlery on the table. The plate with the silver lid was opened to reveal beef drizzled with light gray-brown tuna sauce.
Red wine is Amy's favorite brand, Petrus, the "Queen of Wines" alongside Romanée-Conti, and the uncrowned king of the Pomerol appellation.
It's clear that Violet did her homework for this meal, but unfortunately, Amya wasn't interested.
