Chapter 49: The Vase Actress Who is the Fake Heiress in Modern Society (49)

Xian Du arrived at the hospital, not expecting to find both Elder Jiang and Jiang Xiuwen there.

Although the Jiang family's businesses appeared to be fine on the surface, the banks had actually already issued final ultimatums to the group.

Even the Bo Corporation was dragged down, with its assets shrinking dramatically, plunging overnight from the pinnacle of City A to the bottom tier.

This was only preserved because the Bo Corporation urgently severed its ties with the Jiang family and issued a formal statement.

Bo Yue was no longer the aloof crown prince of the Bo Corporation; to make a living, he...

Ball passed the ball, Murray stole it, and Chu Yang and Green sprinted down the court. Murray passed to Green ahead, who feinted a layup to draw the defender's attention before flicking the ball upward, easily assisting Chu Yang in scoring.

Before she could finish her silent complaint, Xiao Yang handed the phone to her. Coming to her senses, Cheng Nuo waved her hands frantically at him, but Xiao Yang wore an expression that clearly said, "Go on and take it." Left with no choice and deeply reluctant, Cheng Nuo stepped forward to answer the call, only to realize that her own lowered head and restrained posture were no better than Xiao Yang's.

Ge Biao was in his office, which also contained an inner suite. At that moment, the door to the suite opened gently, and Long Jianfei walked out.

As her slender hands clenched into iron fists and punched forward, the moment they made contact with Night Moon Ai, it transformed into a visible chakra shockwave.

Cao Ling bowed to express his gratitude. Having served together for many years, this pair of monarch and subject could be considered as close as family.

Although the Cavaliers had been operating at a financial loss for the past few years, the immense influence that LeBron's return to Cleveland brought to the city still allowed the team owner to profit significantly in other areas.

Obadiah had installed a self-destruct device inside the Iron Monger, perhaps because he had a premonition that he might lose. In any case, after losing the fight and knowing he could not escape the net of justice, Obadiah simply chose to perish together.

Lord Monarch gently waved his folding fan, cast a sideways glance at Yun Ming who was recovering from his injuries, and then looked at the various sects whose eyes were fixed on him like ravenous wolves. With a cold sneer, he said, "Today at the Heavenly Painting Banquet, you are all merely here to discuss the Forbidden Demon Forest! There is no need to keep beating around the bush." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

Just as Cheng Nuo's one-month vacation came to an end, she rushed without pause to take on a new drama. Since the genre was time-travel, Cheng Nuo originally intended to turn it down, but upon learning secretly from Xiao Yang that this was Mu Yang's work and a script tailor-made for her, she decided to make a guest appearance as a favor.

"Idle gossip is only spoken by idle people; I have nothing to fear. Besides, Song Li and I are planning to get married." Xiao Pei said this with absolute calm, as though it were the most natural thing in the course of events, yet Song Li, no matter how hard he tried to restrain himself, could not conceal the turbulent waves crashing within his heart.

Only after stepping inside did Ren Xia discover that this office resembled a classroom more than anything else—it was a very large room. The entrance was located at one end of the room, meaning the door was not in the middle. After entering, the vast space to the left was the actual working area, furnished with numerous desks and computers.

At first, it seemed fine, but when the first scene of tearing flesh appeared, Xu Yan's stomach churned. She kept watching, then suddenly leaned to one side and vomited violently, disgorging everything she had eaten the day before.

Tian Cuiqin felt a deep sense of guilt toward Lin Fenglin. She had failed to fulfill her duties as a wife and could not even bear him a child, yet Lin Fenglin had stood by her side and cared for her unwaveringly for over a decade.

Hawthorne's gaze made Shen Xiu shudder involuntarily, leaving her with a lingering sense that she had somehow fallen into a trap.

"What on earth did you do for him to give you money?" Old Wang was utterly confused, having no idea why the man had given Bai Hua fifty yuan, assuming it was simply a business transaction.
