Chapter 50

Ignoring the weeping voice behind her, Su Ruyue stepped into the room, coming face-to-face with the man's fierce gaze.

Prime Minister Ye let out a sigh of relief. Once he stepped outside, the sky had already grown dark. He sneaked stealthily into the cellar where the wine was stored.

She knew that with Lu Shiyu's status, once she introduced him, this order would undoubtedly be secured. Yet, she still hoped to find a truly talented illustrator.

Jiang's parents did not stay with Jiang Yu for long, wanting to give her more time to rest. No sooner had they left than Jiuli arrived.

She bowed in greeting, took the money, and was about to leave when Director Lin's assistant walked in.

Everything was filled with contempt and disdain toward them, alongside a bitter resentment over being abandoned by the military.

Chen Cheng knew deep down that he was utterly finished. He was deeply shocked by what Huang Ling had done; in his heart, Huang Ling had always been gentle and magnanimous. Only now did he realize how vicious the woman he had lived with for decades truly was.

One must know that countless wealthy young scions were desperate to receive a reply from her, yet she had never once answered any of them.

Following Huang Renjie's advice, they refrained from launching a fierce assault, choosing instead to advance cautiously while minimizing the losses of the Huang family. Even so, being a great and powerful clan, their strength remained formidable.

Chu Yang took a deep breath and was forced to stop in his tracks. What kind of wind was blowing today, anyway? Why had this second aunt run all the way to Bo Manor? Heaven knows, the person he least wanted to see was this second aunt. But since matters had come to this, he had no choice but to face it.

In an instant, it felt as though a colossal beast had appeared in the sky, plunging the world into sudden darkness with flying sand and stones. Time stopped all around him as if entering another spatial dimension. The beast's eyes stared fixedly at him, and beneath them seemed to be a bloody, gaping maw, about to swallow Hao Zai whole.

The second young master of the Langya Wang clan, upon hearing someone speak ill of his family, flew into a rage and prepared to use force. Even if the matter were brought before the Emperor himself, he would still be in the right.

However, this did not affect the virtual buttons on the interface. Each button could change color in real time according to the environment, making it easy to distinguish between the virtual and the real-world content.

Ah Juan was not one to be outdone either. Her "Nine-Yin White Bone Claw" technique was executed flawlessly, and it was evident from her rich experience that she had witnessed plenty of such scenes.

Mu Shi changed direction, intending to move forward, but before she could even take a step, Gu Weichen immediately blocked her path again. She shifted to another direction, and he blocked her once more.

The night grew deeper, and the breeze gently caressed the earth. Long after everyone had fallen asleep, the flowers on the branches were still striving to grow, accompanied by the babbling stream and the twinkling stars in the sky.

Now in a foreign land, Jiang You's half-baked English made it difficult for her to communicate with others, so Guan Zhiling, whose English was quite good, naturally took charge.

"Thank you, brother Brandt, but please don't talk for now." After a brief silence, Lubbock chose to have the other person remain quiet.

Wei Zhongxiang nodded and left. It didn't matter if the magazine's name wasn't settled yet; it wasn't needed just yet.

The military experts of the three factions designated the Martian Alliance's territory as the battlefield. To be honest, the Martians had no other choice. If it were any further, they would lose the advantage of home ground, yet once they failed, Mars would face direct alien strikes.

"Did you get plastic surgery?" He had looked like a slovenly uncle earlier, but calling him striking and handsome now would not be an overstatement.

However, upon arriving at the hospital ward, what she saw instead was Yi Junlei patiently feeding chicken soup to Chen Lülan, while Chen Lülan wore an expression of utter annoyance.

Able to extend the waiting limit for this distant, uncertain relationship by three more weeks, Huai Zhen suddenly felt happy again.

Chai You sighed inwardly, wondering why the revered Master Wang was willing to teach her, and suddenly fancied forming a marital alliance with the Yi family, though the timing was terribly poor. No matter, there was no rush.

As ten o'clock drew near, Cicero still had no free time, so he had to ask Macleay to send the other two on-duty federal police officers back to the downtown area in the same car as Huai Zhen.

Wei Shi lowered his head and licked the youth's glossy, slick lips. The youth was forced to lift his chin, his eyes swimming with involuntary moisture caused by the sudden breathlessness.

After Liu Mu left, others naturally came over to offer toasts, but Wei Xiao excused himself on the grounds of a poor tolerance for alcohol and substituted it with fruit juice. As he was currently at the height of his fame, no one dared to pressure him into drinking, so a token gesture sufficed to let the matter pass.

Someone as well-behaved as Chi Zao had barely ever set foot in a karaoke bar. Understanding little of these things, she simply obediently stayed close to Wei Xiao, leaving all arrangements to him.

Qin Jinyu flicked her sleeve, drew out a token from it, and looked calmly at the person blocking her path.

"Elder sister, you seemed to have had it much worse than me back then. They said you cried at home for a whole month and even threatened suicide." The illusion cat stared blankly at the eldest sister, delivering a timely and ruthless jab.

The Azure Dragon, previously covered in wounds and at death's door, had suddenly returned to peak vigor, with not a single trace of injury remaining on its body.

Leaving Qiu Ermao's house, Monkey and Zhu Qing abandoned their plan to enter the town. Instead, they quietly headed north about two miles west of the town.

Seeming to sense an unusual gaze, Wang Shuangshuang turned her beautiful eyes, and her delicate body instantly trembled as her gaze locked straight onto Wang Ying.

It had crossed his mind that this might be made of wood, with the golden color on top merely painted on. Yet when he tapped his fingers gently against it, it emitted a crisp, ringing chime, instantly shattering that hypothesis.
