Throughout this period, he had been channeling his energy and holding his breath, fearing even he might succumb to the drug—Mr. Mu’s concoctions were not to be underestimated. Meng Liangsheng nodded, instructing someone to bring Bai Ruozhu over. Bai Ruozhu picked up Dengdeng and left with that person.

The man’s deep, enigmatic gaze tightly fixed upon her face; his eyes were strikingly clear and stubborn, single eyelids thin, his skin delicate, his beauty beyond what bright eyes and white teeth could describe. Her hair was loosened, a strand falling across her neck, its tip disappearing into the collar, and her bathrobe gaped open.

At this moment, Yoda opened her eyes. Before her was a man seated on the sofa, lost in thought as he looked to one side; his gaze didn’t linger on her at all. What had gone wrong?

This place was close to the First Manor of the world, and there were no other houses nearby. Those two must be servants of the First Manor, but from which courtyard exactly? How dare they, in such wild and remote woods, carry out such deeds.

“Alright, alright,” Bai Ruozhu smiled, even more awkward than before. Had she become so anxious that her mind went blank? How could she have missed such a simple solution?

Once, Wen Wenbo Xue wandered alone, now meeting again. She left the grandeur of the Five Peaks, climbed countless rocky heights. She returned to White Goose Ridge, drinking from the cinnabar well when thirsty.

Yet Liancheng, with his refined air, seemed wholly unaffected by pain, grabbing the simple collar and hoisting him up.

Shaoling Fairy bit her cherry lips, remaining silent. Facing the amiable Seventh Immortal Lord, she felt she could be a little more assertive, since this concerned her fate for the rest of her life.

“Zhou, why are you…” Charlotte looked at him in utter surprise, genuinely unaware that Zhou would return for the weekend.

As his orders were issued, more than twenty tanks and cannons on the front lines immediately swiveled their barrels, dispersing to the left and right wings.

The system sensed this terrifying force as well, and in a flash, darted over.

Wen Ying hung up on Detective Luo and tried calling Deng Shangwei a third time—still, the phone was switched off.

Dressed in a deep blue robe adorned with imperial dragon patterns, the Fourth Lord Yongzheng’s aged face was marked with wrinkles and age spots. His gaze was gloomy, his entire expression spelling out, “I am not pleased,” in bold strokes.

During casual conversation on the way, it came out that this chauffeur once had a good job, with an annual salary plus bonus of no less than four hundred thousand.

Just then, a tall figure entered the film crew. Su Nian was no stranger here; his previous visit, combined with his celebrity status, meant many recognized him.

Lu Tianzhe’s voice came through the headset, and Gu Xi instantly became more alert, quickly sitting up. The unfamiliar surroundings left Gu Xi somewhat puzzled.

Lin Xianyu spoke softly; it seemed her earlier suspicions were correct—this matter was indeed linked to Grand Consort Jingyi.

Abroad, Lu Tianzhe’s phone suddenly vibrated. The HR manager paused mid-report, and all senior staff present froze, beads of sweat breaking out on their foreheads.

After bowing to Xu Tian from afar, Cong Zhongzhi, unable to approach due to the crowd, frowned impatiently and motioned for silence.

In his past life, Bai Gang’s cheap necklace from the market had once shielded him from a sword strike. Ever since, he treated it as his lucky charm. In this life, he bought another identical necklace and had never taken it off.

In moments like these, can you really do anything I don’t know about? Clearly, even if you’re caught off guard, if you don’t make some plans now, it will be utterly dreadful.

Gu Yun closed his eyes, withdrawing his spiritual sense back into the sea of consciousness, relying on its vastness to calm this collision.

“Lan’er, you called out to me loudly just now—did something happen? Did someone bully you?” My father, seeing my tear-streaked face, asked with concern.

Before Gu Yun could respond, the old man waved his left hand, sending the stone tablet flying toward him. Gu Yun hurriedly caught it. The elder’s right arm hugged the hunchbacked old man, his left hand lifting Gu Yun’s back, and together they soared skyward, heading out of the city.

As soon as Gu Yun’s helmet formed, a silver light appeared on the silver battle armor of the Star Battle Body, circulating along the entire armor as if forming a cycle.

The gate swung open. Lin Su picked up the loudspeaker and began speaking, first introducing himself, then describing the benefits Changlin Port would bring to all of Chang, to Pingjiang Town, and to the villagers.

On the other side, Biscay also won easily; the two met in the elevator, and their rooms were assigned close together—almost directly across from each other.

It could be said that, aside from the few trainees sent out to recruit, all other members of the karate club were present.

At this moment, Professor Yanran, standing one meter seventy-two tall, strode calmly through the VIP passage, facing the breeze.

Fortunately, the snow had blanketed all the graveyards in a thick white quilt; even the usually exclusive cemetery park felt less eerie and solemn.

Teacher Li’s teaching methods were indeed different from others. He began straightaway by tackling “functions.”

Given all this, I never worried—yet when I learned Zhong Peng was actually Ni Daye, I panicked, truly panicked.

“Brother Fusu, what are you going there for?” A young boy called after Ying Su, running over out of breath, several guards trailing behind him.

With these three requirements, plus no price limitation, inevitably many people came.

The items in the system’s mall don’t belong to Ma or Wang, so we can’t just take them for free. Otherwise, accumulating credits would be meaningless.
