Volume 1, Chapter 65: Infatuation Takes Over
Hearing this, Cheng Wenbo's eyes twinkled with starlight as he leaned down and pecked her on the cheek.
"Still my wife who cares for me most. Then I shall await my wife's good news patiently."
Cui Houzhi returned to her maiden home that very day, coaxing and wheedling her father endlessly.
Minister Cui had no intention of promoting his son-in-law so quickly, especially since official positions in the capital were scarce and many people had their eyes fixed on his Ministry of Works, green-eyed with envy.
He also wished to avoid giving others a handle to criticize him.
She turned to leave with a sense of disappointment, but suddenly heard that unforgettable voice coming from behind her.
"What is the meaning of this? Could it be that you think I can never defeat you?" Alice Nakiri clenched her fists tightly, her crimson eyes locked onto Ryo Kurokiba.
At these words, Liu Bei and Yi Ji both stared blankly at Zhuge Liang. Clearly, there was a deeper meaning hidden in what Zhuge Liang had just said.
The masked man wearing a half-mask grabbed him by the collar and hoisted him up into the air. Halfway up, with a sudden sweep of his massive arms, he began to slap him left and right.
Just as Princess Pingzhao was wondering how to reply to her brother, her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
This made him feel increasingly strange, yet up to this point, no danger had occurred.
Yu Xingwan's pupils dilated as she stared blankly at Ye Su, clearly beginning to doubt her life.
Long Erdandan asked anxiously, terrified that the upper echelons of the [Overlord Faction] would lead a massive force to besiege the three of them.
Judging from the contents of this letter, the matter was no longer confined to a mere dispute between the Xuzhou faction and the Huainan faction, but was poised to trigger a military mutiny; agree he must, and agree he would even if he didn't want to.
Even Su Ya was quite surprised. She knew that Zhang Tiankai's influence extended everywhere, but today's affair was probably beyond his ability to suppress. If they truly fell out with government officials, the ones to suffer losses in the end would still be the businessmen.
Yet, feeling intuitively safe, she couldn't be bothered to ponder or care about her exact whereabouts.
Ji Fengxiang was also struck with shock, but being a man, he was naturally bolder than Xiao Hong. What puzzled him wasn't what the black smoke actually was, but why Xin Yu's second attack had failed.
Seeing that she could not refuse any longer, Yun Duodu had no choice but to follow him inside the bed curtains. Fortunately, Murong Che really only intended to sleep.
Ye Qingcheng gasped sharply. Her heart felt as though a massive boulder had been pressed upon it by those words, heavy to the point of suffocation.
Meanwhile, on Resurrection Island, Susan had successfully entered the island's interference zone. Almost the moment she stepped into the energy field of the psychic tower, Number One detected her and directly dispatched a transport plane to meet her. Thus, Bluebird smoothly boarded the Black Bat—the only spacecraft on the entire island equipped with medical facilities.
Luo Yu knew the situation was urgent. This matter seemed rather complicated; she would just have to ask her mother about it later.
Chen Xia laughed so hard she collapsed onto the sofa. It was also NK's first time seeing Zhong Can in such a state. Suppressing a smile, NK rushed forward and picked up a piece of food, feeding it straight into Zhong Can's mouth.
"I believe in you!" Involuntarily, he tightened his embrace around her waist, resting his chin upon her hair and breathing in her subtle fragrance.
Codename: Undead Legend. Who was he? He was a legend in the hacker world three years ago. If Hundred Ghosts Maple knew that the security system he breached at the Ai Family Dynasty was merely something Beiming Chen had casually coded out of boredom three years ago, I wonder what expression he would wear?
At this moment, Wang Biao's eyes narrowed sharply, staring fixedly at Lin Hao as if he had discovered something.
The current number of living corpses had already reached over a thousand. With such a massive quantity, Xiaooran alone was no longer capable of wiping them all out.
Nangong Feng did not know with what kind of emotions he had walked out. Only upon reaching the outside air did he feel capable of breathing again. What had happened to him just now? Why had he even forgotten how to perform the simplest act of breathing? His heart seemed beyond the control of his brain, and the panic in his chest was thoroughly real.
