Chapter 63: Breathing Grew Erratic in the Restricted Space
Clearly meant as a mere conjecture, the words were instead uttered with an unwavering, resounding firmness.
Pei Shijin cast his narrow gaze toward her.
As he looked into her bright, limpid apricot-shaped eyes, he drew closer with a hint of danger in his demeanor and whispered, "What shall I do? You have discovered my secret."
Xie Yun gave a light cough, a trace of panic hidden within her apricot eyes, and hurriedly retreated a few steps.
......
At that very moment, the tightly closed doors swung open, and seven men with wretched, leering smiles surrounded the frail figure.
Chu Liangrao nodded with satisfaction. With this, the Lady Gu clan could rest easy, and now that she had cast her bait, she only needed to wait for someone to take it.
Ye Li could not help but feel a sense of grievance blooming in her heart. Unsure whether to cry or laugh, she walked timidly to Chu Haoxuan's side, gazing up at him with eyes full of lingering anxiety, utterly at a loss as to what to do next.
The two children arrived at the same thought simultaneously: once they had a younger brother or sister, would they finally have someone they could bully?
It was only when Gaoze saw people emerging from both ends of the corridor, brandishing guns and machetes with an air of frigid, murderous intent, that the realization finally dawned upon him.
"My girl, stop dwelling on it. There will never be any more Liulan stones." Qian Cheng sighed softly, fixing his gaze on Qian Xun's hair.
"I called you, but you didn't answer. Yesterday I saw your post on Weibo saying you were taking graduation photos today. I specifically borrowed a DSLR camera from a friend in the crew for you to use." Bai Yuchuan said this as he went to fetch it.
Looking at Yuan Xiao's hand, which was wrapped into a bulky package—rendering him unable to eat or hold anything—Yuan Songzi called the housekeeping center to hire a caregiver for him. No matter how long Yuan Xiao intended to stay here, he refused to let him suffer the slightest hardship.
"This...?" Old Master Li observed Hua Weiluo's tangled and conflicted expression, then turned his gaze to Zhishan, looking at him with a face full of questions.
"Has your paralysis poison been cured?" Zhishan asked, noticing Hua Weiluo's deeply displeased expression.
For reasons unknown, whenever Chen Li found himself facing Liu Qingqing, he could not help but indulge in a bit of sharp-witted banter.
Relying on the great ship of humanity, the Butterfly clan members venturing out to explore new territories enjoyed a much higher survival rate.
All of these logistics were handled by Duan Zhuqing's production team, while Liu Shang simply provided complimentary screening tickets for his friends.
The Nidoqueen monarch, Dokun, cast a sidelong glance at his mate. Previously, it had been she who restrained him, urging him to suppress his temper, but now, he truly could not hold back any longer.
Seeing Tu Ke hesitate, Mu Yao paused its rhythmic patting and immediately pulled Tu Ke into its embrace, cutting off its movement.
Yet, Song Ke, who was well-versed in directorial techniques, sensed an underlying dread emanating from this scene.
Determined to make Liu Bei and his companions completely abandon all hope, Zhugang Liang decided to leave a few inscriptions on the lintel of the dwelling.
The problem, however, was that they lacked certainty right now and could not rashly thaw Xue Li for examination; they had to decipher the causes from this pathological report first.
Such a magical genius had actually appeared on the mainland—no, calling her a genius was no longer sufficient; she could only be described as a freak.
"Brother Yu, you desire my death to that extent." Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes, staring blankly at Zhang Yu with a deadpan expression before speaking in a slow drawl.
Seeing him hesitate, Chen Danqing shook her head incessantly. Even if Huo Huan confessed, Tong Sudong would still spare no mercy.
Bai Moxuan originally had no intention of disturbing Qin Susu's rest, but seeing her suddenly open her eyes, he was genuinely startled by the intense look in her gaze.
At that moment, the battered and desperate ferocious tiger beast caught sight of the incoming magical artifacts. It spat a gale of razor-sharp wind directly at the vanguard of the weapons, led by the Cyan Fire Sword. The tempestuous gale instantly sent the Cyan Fire Sword and the other artifacts spinning away, yet its destructive momentum remained entirely unchecked as it lunged straight toward Zhang Yang.
