However, whether she made it clear or tried to offer me a way out didn't matter to me at all, because I didn't need it in the first place. Moreover, I've never been one to be thin-skinned, especially when I'm determined to make an issue of something.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. At first glance, the remark sounded a bit out of place and inexplicable, but upon closer listening, anyone unaware of the truth would assume I was merely spoiled and clumsy at serving others, while she was covering up for my ineptitude and going along with the flow just to save my face.

Meanwhile, Gu Xicheng led his team back, but before their vehicle could even drive into the military compound, it was stopped by the guards at the gate.

"Hey, son, I'm driving here. Do you want to ruin your mother and leave our family homeless?" Feng Feng let out a huff, though he didn't push his son away.

"I won't come out. If you've got the guts, come on in," Tang Zixuan said defiantly, the corners of her lips curling up into an arrogant smile.

An Che walked over to Yu Jinglan, pulling out two white jade wine flasks from who knows where. He reached out, extending them toward Yu Jinglan, and gave them a gentle shake.

After helping her apply sunscreen, Su Mianmian chased Li Jinye away. She changed into a swimsuit and looked at herself in the mirror. Although the style wasn't her favorite, wearing it made the overall effect feel quite nice.

"They can't keep their communication channels blocked forever; there's bound to be a moment of oversight on her part," Sairiao said in a deep voice.

Gu Xicheng paused for a moment, staring dumbfounded at Chu Luoyi. She had truly been terrified by the person outside.

Every step this child took was meticulously calculated. When it was time to charge, he charged; when it was not the time to charge, his forbearance was so profound that even he found it startling.

"That's even better. We didn't see the black flag, perhaps it was blown away by the mountain wind. Let's make our move," Zhou Wangang ordered.

"Big brother, we are from the Sirius Gang. Would you like to join us? With your martial arts skills, getting a position as an elder would be a piece of cake," Qian Xiang said.

Yan Feiyang looked at him, showing no trace of anger despite those two words. They both understood how crucial intuition was in their line of work; those simple two words had saved countless lives on the battlefield.

After sitting there for a long time, she finally propped herself up, walked over to a nearby breakfast stall, bought some porridge, and sat down to eat it slowly.

Xie Heishou crashed headfirst onto the ground and died. His face hit the earth, and due to momentum, he slid five or six meters across the ground before stopping. His skull had been shattered open, spilling white, yellow, and red matter everywhere—a truly gruesome sight.

Even if Ning Fan had used a secret technique to burst forth with strength far exceeding his own, there had to be a limit to such an explosive surge, right?

Zhuang Shaofei closed the car door, not in a hurry to start the engine. Instead, he pulled out a cigarette and toyed with it in his hand, looking deeply preoccupied.

Immediately, Ye Qing executed the Wind-Thunder Stance, instantly appearing before Baiyue, and unleashed a Shattering Fist imbued with intense fist intent.

Upon hearing this, Law Enforcement Elder Long Cheng tightened his grip even further around the neck of the shadowy figure.

It is just like hearing that the Oriental Pearl Tower is extremely tall, yet having no intuitive grasp of it until you actually see it and ascend it, only then can you truly feel its towering magnificence.

Mu Lingyi was utterly baffled, but seeing Gu Zeren's rare expression of seriousness, she still nodded slowly, pretending as though she understood completely.

After the millennium, material wealth became extremely abundant. Faced with barbecue, steaks, rice noodles, stir-fries, ramen, donkey burgers, roujiamo, and mutton soup soaked in flatbread, one had to use a process of elimination—first discarding what one didn't want to eat, and then choosing something relatively appealing.

Looking around anxiously and making sure no one was paying attention, she darted straight into Song Ci's office, opening and closing the door in one fluid motion.

Bai Su Su told him that she had already returned to the Imperial Capital and asked if he had time to join her for afternoon tea.

However, Xiao Tian did not target him first; instead, he swept toward those Grandmaster-realm experts of the Zhang family.

Liu Shishi was also listening with rapt attention. Although she knew Song Ci had exceptional grades and was the top scorer in the Beijing college entrance examination, she didn't know much about his specific college or major.

This was also why, after Chen Duling awakened her Phoenix bloodline, the status of the Chen family underwent a heaven-shaking transformation. Even if Chen Duling chose not to enter the Martial Arts Temple, given her talent, she could become a Martial Dao Grandmaster within just a few short years.

"I didn't sign any indentured servitude contract with you. This young lady comes and goes as she pleases, humph!" Zhang Xiaojing said indifferently.

Seeing Gangzi's miserable state, Master Ma's brow furrowed deeply. Without saying much, he nodded toward the other side, then cast an icy gaze at Cao Yang.

People on both sides of the mountain path scrambled to get out of the way. The lead horse possessed a pair of deer antlers; rather than calling it a horse, it was more akin to a deer, commonly referred to by outsiders as a "deer-horse." With a single casual leap, this creature cleared over a dozen steps and instantly reached the summit.

At that moment, upon seeing the blue lotus in Gu Bei's hand, the ghostly blue flames in its eye sockets flared even more intensely. Yet, it paced back and forth, not daring to make a move, seemingly terrified of the seemingly ordinary youth standing on the roof.

Previously, she would never have dared to say such things, as she was terrified that if she spoke her mind, she and Chen Hao wouldn't even remain friends.

Members of the Rakshasa Sect specialized in assassination and killing with a single blow, and Luo Xue, having once been an assassin, naturally operated the same way.

Upon returning home, Qin Feng sat calmly on the sofa watching television while Mu Xue was binge-watching dramas—something like Seven Me, which she heard featured great performances by veteran actors.
