Zuko’s words took Lina aback. “Repay?”
Zuko grew more triumphant. “Yeah. Do you think I’d help you for nothing?”
Lina’s eyebrows furrowed. “So, now you’re helping me but expecting something in return?”
Zuko’s heart sank, realizing the misunderstanding.
The girl on the screen had a serious expression. “I see, Zeke. So, it turns out that your help always comes with a
purpose! You weren’t like this before. When you used to help me, you always said you were happy to do it! Ah, it
seems that a man’s words are really unreliable…”
Zuko panicked. “No, no, they’re reliable! I was just kidding earlier. I don’t want you to repay me!”
Lina burst into laughter, revealing that she was teasing him.
Zuko was momentarily stunned, realizing he had fallen for her playful act. The fluttering feeling in his heart
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreturned, like a kitten pawing at his emotions.
With mischievous and lively doe eyes on the screen, Lina asked, “So… how are you going to help me?” She was
enjoying their banter.
Still caught up in the moment, Zuko momentarily forgot to answer her question.
Lina sweetly smiled, knowing he didn’t have a concrete answer. The background behind her displayed the grand
palace, a place off-limits to regular people. She just wanted to tease him and continue their conversation.
Snapping out of his daze, Zuko chuckled. “Look up.”
Lina raised her eyes to the navy night sky, which resembled luxurious velvet adorned with sparkling stars.
“What do you think? Beautiful, isn’t it?”
Lina, rarely admiring the starry sky, couldn’t help but be captivated by the natural magnificence. “Mm… It’s really
beautiful.”
Zuko smiled and shared his findings. “I checked online, and they say the stars in Southeast Aciatic are magical. If
you make a wish upon the stars, your wish will come true.”
“You’re just trying to fool me!” Lina exclaimed.
“You don’t believe it? Give it a try,” Zuko responded.
“What if it doesn’t come true?”
“Hmm…” Zuko pondered for a moment. “If it comes true, kiss me when you return. If it doesn’t come true, I’ll let
you kiss me. Any way you want!”
Lina would have jumped up and punched him if a screen didn’t separate them, though her laughter was incredibly
sweet.
Zuko gazed at her tenderly.
Little did she know, he held more influence than the stars in Southeast Aciatic. As the grandson of a Count, he had

While others had to undergo multiple security checks to enter the palace, he only needed his face.
Lina smiled and played along with his words, knowing it was impossible but still willing to indulge in their silliness.
She set her phone aside, closed her eyes, and clasped her hands together, making a wish under the starry sky.
“I hope I can visit the grand palace tomorrow and thoroughly sketch all the buildings to study later!”
“Alright,” Zuko replied in his deep and magnetic voice. “The stars have heard it!”
…
That night, the grand palace, the general’s residence, and the Irwin Manor all received various “harassing calls”.
“His Lordship says his wife wants to visit the grand palace!
“His Lordship says he cannot reveal his identity in front of his wife. Her classmates must accompany her if she
wants to visit the grand palace!
“His Lordship says this matter is crucial to him and requests Your Majesty’s assistance!”
Alexander rubbed his temples, his brow furrowed, as he looked around.
