Collapse Iron: After watching the simulation, they all turned to the dark side.

"The image shows an elderly woman sitting quietly in front of the screen with a gentle expression, waving in Lu Qing's direction."

"Although she's old, she's still very beautiful."

"After all, time never defeats a beauty."

"Hey! Can you hear me?"

"Hehe, as Ms. Black Tower said, I'm a good site administrator too. If you knew that, you'd be happy for me, right?"

"Oh dear, but if I'm not careful, I'll die soon, though I'll be considered quite old."

"There is one regret, though: I didn't hear you praise me personally!!"

"Smugly, hands on hips!!"

"If you were here, you would praise me, right...?"

"The peony remains..."

"After reading it, what are your thoughts?"

"She just went to a very far place, that's all."

"Yes, in the blink of an eye, it's another once-in-a-millennium meteor shower. Time really flies." Hei Ta looked up at the night sky outside the window, where there were a few stars.

"Yes, let's go see it together then."

"Oh, I thought you would refuse?"

“A long time ago, I might have refused, but not now.”

"Oh? Why?"

"Because you will feel happy, and then I will feel happy too."

Lu Qing smiled contentedly upon hearing this.

"Yes, this time, I promise I won't break my promise."

"That would be best." Black Tower put his hands on his hips, puffing out his cheeks.

Chapter 26 The Tyrant's Black Tower

Black Tower left in a hurry, seemingly to deal with something important.

Yes, she planned to go find Estád. If this woman wasn't eliminated, she would eventually become a menace. Who knew when she might seduce her little follower? If he were to be tricked away by a philanderer, she was afraid she would be heartbroken.

At this moment, Estella felt a chill run down her spine.

"It must be my imagination." She flicked the pink highlights on her head, feeling a little uneasy.

Then, there was a rapid knocking at the door.

"Me." A voice, as clear as a flowing spring and seemingly unreasonable, came through, but Estella suddenly felt a sense of not wanting to face it.

She didn't think Ms. Black Tower had come for afternoon tea; she was probably there to cause trouble.

However, facing her boss, Estelle naturally dared not turn her away. After hesitating for a moment, she reached out and turned the doorknob.

In an instant, she felt the overwhelming, absolute aura of the Empress, a force that seemed to surge like a tidal wave.

That was someone she couldn't defeat no matter how hard she tried.

Estella could only pitifully, weakly, and helplessly huddle in the corner.

Black Tower didn't speak, but simply looked at Estella with his beautiful crimson eyes.

Aistar is undoubtedly very beautiful among women, and she also possesses a large amount of wealth, enough to help Lu Qing pay off his debts. More importantly, she also covets her only little follower, making her a formidable opponent that Black Tower must be wary of no matter what.

But geniuses are never afraid of losing. She admitted that Estella used to be a friend of hers, but not anymore. If she didn't need Estella to manage the space station, the first thing she would probably do is get rid of her.

Hei Ta slightly raised his eyes and asked casually, "I heard that Lu Qing is your private chef."

“Yes, Lady Black Tower.” Estella, still defeated by the aura of the queen, was completely outmatched.

Black Tower's slender, white fingers tapped the table almost unconsciously, but his mind was already clear.

The way my little follower always looks like a lost bird, unable to find its way home.

However, occasionally, I would fall onto someone else's balcony and, by chance, a kind person would bandage my wounds.

But you should have been set free long ago, so why do you still cling to his tenderness?

Isn't this greed?

You're probably only thinking about yourself, aren't you?

If you like something, just plunder it.

Take whatever you want.

Now, facing me, who is so powerful that I am invincible, can you still keep your heart?

Perhaps this is cruel, but Black Tower has always only cared about itself and him.

The Black Tower's top priority right now is to crush Estella's heart, ensuring she remains a loyal subordinate and doesn't cause any trouble.

Black Tower was certain that even if she had arrived a few days later, she would have succeeded, because she believed that no one in the world understood her little follower better than anyone else.

She knew him even better than he knew himself.

He was gentle, so out of a humble sense of pity, he ultimately gave her a tenderness that shouldn't have been his.

But now, I want to nip it in the bud.

Black Tower said nothing, but gave Estella one last look. Then, looking at Estella, whose eyes were red-rimmed, he shook his head slightly and walked straight out the door.

Her intuition told her that Estelle would be heartbroken for a long time, and might even give up on any unrealistic ideas.

Estella remained silent, still recalling that gaze.

Black Tower's exquisitely beautiful face, like that of a creator of the heavens, parted in a strange arc, revealing eyes as deep and unfathomable as a spring.

It was as if he were wielding a giant axe, hacking away at the windows of his own heart, one cut after another.

This tyrannical behavior shattered his own soul, piece by piece, into a jumbled mess.

The window to my heart has collapsed, leaving shards scattered everywhere.

Soon, the window to my heart was locked...

The sound of the lock being turned on was incredibly crisp and clear, like the echo of a clear spring.

Today, she felt as if she had seen a demon.

A demon that cannot be defeated no matter what.

Tears the size of beans poured down, gathering into a river.

Then, there was another knock on the door.

"Station manager, are you there? It's me."

A familiar voice came from behind her, but she had lost the courage to speak. She simply covered her lips, unable to face him.

Although Estelle is attracted to good looks, she won't fall in love at first sight because of someone's appearance, even if he is a succubus.

She recalled that day again.

At that time, she had just taken over as the stationmaster of the Black Tower Space Station. She was completely clueless and didn't know what to do. Without authority, she naturally couldn't win people's hearts.

Despite her young age, she was completely outmaneuvered by the seasoned veterans on the space station, and many of them had complaints about her arrival.

Then, she encountered Lu Qing, who was selling Fiji cups (scratch that), and Black Tower dolls.

"Do you know that selling this kind of thing on the space station is not allowed? I'll be fined."

The man glanced at it and then clicked his tongue.

"New station manager, Estella, it must feel bad to be questioned, right? Here's what we'll do: if you agree to let me continue selling Black Tower plush toys, I can teach you a couple of tricks to become a qualified station manager."

After a long silence, she agreed.

Then she learned to win over some people, divide others, and suppress others.

My God, he's a genius.

From that moment on, she began to idolize the best toy supplier on the Black Tower space station.

Otherwise, she couldn't imagine how difficult her life would be in the Black Tower space station.

From then on, she, whose heart was always filled with tenderness, gradually became immersed in the boy's wisdom and gentleness.

Until today, the walls around my heart have crumbled.

It was crushed into a two-dimensional plane by the black tower and could not be restored.

"Waaaaah..." she sobbed softly, like a fledgling bird that had lost its wings, bewildered and silent.

Right now, all she wants to do is bury her head in the blankets for twelve hours, no, it should be twenty-four hours, just like an ostrich burying its head in the sand when it encounters danger.

It seems that this way, a young girl's troubles can be buried.

Chapter 27 Greedy

Lu Qing stood at the door, initially thinking no one was there, but upon closer listening, he seemed to hear sobbing from inside the room.

Lu Qing considered the two options he could make.

First, go in and ask what happened, offer some casual comfort, since young girls are easy to coax anyway.

Secondly, pretend you didn't hear it and walk away as if nothing happened.

He hesitated for a moment.

Many people are unwilling to let others see their embarrassing moments, just like myself, who is used to burying some unpleasant things in my heart.

But in the end, he still wanted to ask, because some things are better said out loud.

"Aista, it's me. Open the door, I've brought you food."

After a while, the door opened. Her eyes were red, but there were no tear stains, so she must have cleaned them up.

"It's you." Estelle took the lunchbox and then blocked the doorway, seemingly unwilling to let herself in.

However, based on Lu Qing's past experience, Estádio would most likely grab his hand and pull him into the house, inviting him to lunch.

[Star: Grab it in one swift motion, and refine it instantly.]

There must be a reason why she didn't do that today.

Lu Qing was disappointed, as he received no answer.

He used to make an excuse and slip away, but today, he didn't want to leave. Although he didn't know why, he felt that this matter was inextricably linked to the Black Tower.

[Alan: We have our own Holmes on the Black Tower space station.]

[Silver Wolf: Estella, do your best!!! I believe in you.]

[Star: It's obvious that Silver Wolf really hates Black Tower.]

"What, aren't you going to invite me to dinner today?"

"Please come in." Since things had been said to this extent, Estella naturally wouldn't refuse.

Moreover, she had also figured something out.

Admittedly, Lady Black Tower is difficult to defeat, but she also has a fatal flaw: she doesn't understand love and is exceptionally oblivious.

Yes, they have no chance of success, while I can take advantage of their weakness, especially with my substantial family wealth.

There's a real chance to turn things around. I just like him, what did I do wrong?

Seeing that Estella had no intention of being honest.

Lu Qing then asked directly, "Just now, Black Tower came looking for you."

"um, yes."

She mentioned you.

"Brother, don't blame her. It's all Estella's fault for not doing things properly." Her tone was soft.

[Fireworks: Black Tower: I should have punched her to death just now!]
