Chapter 57

An Luchen’s words sounded like a reminder that neither her relationship with Yin Jie nor the one with Jiang Sibai could be called that of a virtuous wife and devoted mother, much less a marriage to him. In other words, he was making his position clear: they could remain together in such a relationship, but they would never proceed to the next stage of life.

In less than a minute, Su Muqing threw both cakes out and slammed the door shut.

However, following the logic behind the Intelligence Potion, the Charm Potion should also be capable of being rounded down.

But Xia Kun had no time to bicker with them. After entrusting Ji Xiaohua to An Ran, he charged out of the house again without looking back, rushing toward where the silver memory van was parked.

“You just never expected Qian Dan to go on loving him all this time?” Su Muqing gazed at the roses outside the door, her curiosity piqued.

That night, the dream-stealing operation continued. Xia Kun spent twenty yuan in processing fees to obtain a black card bearing an exclusive identification mark from An Ran, along with a pile of forged property documents.

He had unmistakably heard the sound of a phone. He immediately rolled out of bed and took his old phone from the cabinet.

“Dad, Dad, stop fighting! Please, stop! I’ll marry him—I’ll marry anyone! Please let my father go, let my father go!” Seeing her father’s agony, Jiang Mei could no longer speak through her sobs, yet she shouted with all her strength.

The two of them went out together. The directors were already prepared, and as soon as they saw that everyone had arrived, filming began. An Luchen went to Yuzu Entertainment to deal with some matters. The moment he returned and heard that Li Ruihan had been scalded, he nearly rushed forward to drag her down from the scene.

Four government constables stood around the flowerpot, each holding a long saber. Their expressions were solemn and their gazes severe as they watched the four directions—east, south, west, and north—forming a united defense without leaving a single blind spot.

When one’s cultivation realm fell because of severe injury or some other circumstance, returning to one’s former level was extraordinarily difficult. The obstacle was far greater than that of an ordinary breakthrough. Thus, he had remained stuck at the mid-Lingtai stage all this time, unable to advance even an inch.

Lin Caiwei’s heart felt as though another knife had pierced it. So this was the environment in which her mother and younger sister had been living.

One had to understand that when he was still only a Profound-level expert, that great master had already been an Innate powerhouse—and an immensely formidable one at that. After all these years, who knew how powerful that great master had become?

Their names were all code names. Under ordinary circumstances, they rarely used their real names, relying instead on aliases.

Using stones like these, the bandits had constructed three defensive lines, one every seventy meters. It was easy to imagine that even soldiers with some martial training would be unable to bear it; most of their strength would be drained away.

After they finished eating and tidied everything up, it was already the Hour of the Dog. A large bed had been placed in Prince Rui’s inner chamber, and the two of them lay down on it fully clothed.

“Setting sail to search for treasure isn’t something you can finish in a day or two. It could take ten days or half a month, or even one or two months. Good heavens, whether the people who go out to sea find treasure or not, you’ll make a fortune from every round trip!” Cui Kai calculated the figures, astonished.

He compared these insights one by one with the inheritance of Yan Xixiong, the former patriarch of the Heaven-Connecting Holy Sect, verifying them against each other. His mastery of space advanced yet another step.

These days, anyone who came to collect a debt was no pushover. Although they generally tried to skirt the edges of the law and avoided doing anything too outrageous, even a cornered dog would leap over a wall—let alone a human being.

The emperor was furious, but both sons were flesh of his flesh. His Majesty did not wish to see either one of them lost.

Having given up arguing with Xu Youxiang, Xia Yu glanced at the eyes once more. Unable to resist, he took several photographs and sent them to himself.

That was why, at that very moment, countless thoughts raced through his mind. Fear, terror, and panic were all written across his face.

“No! You must leave for the capital first thing tomorrow morning. Besides, this matter is extremely urgent.” Ye Haixuan’s mother shook her head, sternness etched across her face.

The Princess of the Western Commandery had grown accustomed to being domineering and willful. Once she decided on something, she was determined to see it done. Thus, countless vicious plans were already forming in her mind.

“Then you must be too picky.” Zhou Can replied with the same words. A voice inside him clamored that he had to get to the bottom of this question, even if doing so made him appear rude and uncultured.

Another sound of shattering glass rang out. This time, the pane was not far above Big Bear.

Especially now, while he was in a starless state: he could handle one fight without trouble, but after two fights he would probably have to parachute out, and after three, mutual destruction would be his only chance.

Ye Fan had originally planned for the First and Second Regiments to defend the southern wall, with the Third Regiment responsible for the other walls. Now that the Restoration Army had arrived, much of the pressure on him had been relieved, and the Second Regiment could be used as a reserve force.

The man’s black hair fell loose and wild, making him seem like an immortal descended into the mortal world. If not for those excessively sinister eyes, people might well have wanted to kneel and bow before him.

Ye Fan thought his current compact submachine gun was quite good, but now that he had been promoted to regimental commander, his standard weapon naturally had to be replaced as well.

His earlier words had not been spoken casually. Once he left the changing room, Ayong returned to his dormitory, packed his belongings, and left for good.

The nail was three inches long, while the wine jar was only a little over an inch thick. After the sharp nail was driven through the bottom of the jar, the poison on its tip dissolved into the wine.

“Big Brother, military orders come first.” Seeing Xiahou Chun in a fury, Xiahou Yuan immediately abandoned the fight, turned slightly, came to his side, and gave him a tug.

“This was mixed in with the laboratory supplies.” Daiku Daichi handed the cardboard box in his hands to Asuna.

But that is beside the point. Qi Li had not really wanted to join the gaming alliance at first. It was only because Meng Fan of Ant Network repeatedly invited him that Li Ming was finally persuaded to come.

If anything truly happened to Guan Yang, Guan Hongda would never forgive himself—and neither would Hong Xinggang.

Because the Chinese evergreen orchid was so rare, Guan Zizai devoted great care to cultivating it. Yet precisely because he cared for it so much, the number of orchids kept increasing, until gradually they occupied a full third of the courtyard.

In recent years, Dingfeng Enterprises had suffered declining performance because its chairman was frequently ill. To make matters worse, some employees had been using the company’s name to solicit clients recklessly outside. In short, the business was beset by troubles both within and without.
