Chapter 51: When the Game Reflects Reality

When Su Qiuxin came over carrying the formula, Hua Ning had already fed the little tiger cub a small red bottle. She wasn’t certain whether the red bottle would be effective for the cub, but it was worth a try. As soon as Su Qiuxin placed the prepared formula beside the cub’s nest, the little tiger cub wobbled to its feet, followed the scent, and plunged its head into the milk bowl, eagerly slurping it down. Seeing this, Hua Ning quietly breathed a sigh of relief—it was effective after all. Su Qiuxin, meanwhile...

Why was it that Cao Cao’s attempt to dig the Ji Ming Ridge canal initially failed? Although the canal was excavated, water from the Fei River couldn’t flow in. The reason was simple: Ji Ming Ridge’s elevation was higher than the terrain on both sides of the Fei and Shi Rivers.

Bai Ming and Ye Yao Ke were the most familiar with the situation. Due to the tense days ensuring Ye Yao Ke’s safety, Ye was unusually outspoken, paying no attention to her tone. Because of Liang Heng’s bond with Ye Mei, Ye Yao Ke sat in the main room for a while, but she was straightforward and quickly voiced her true thoughts.

The two siblings argued over the wood ear mushroom, completely ignoring their father, who was left standing aside. Ye Jing, feeling annoyed, stood there for a long time, but no one paid him any mind.

“Get lost!” Chen Ruer shouted through gritted teeth. She was usually calm and gentle, never losing her temper. Even when angry, she only showed a hint of displeasure on her face. But now, her fury was unprecedented.

“Though it was intentional, it truly reflected my feelings,” said Helan Yao with a hint of anger on her face. Long Shaoyan felt a bit pleased inside and spoke softly.

Li Dong nodded without a word and continued speaking to the man, “Since your Liu family is so warm and welcoming, how can I refuse to reciprocate? But don’t come one by one; it’s better if I go over.” Saying this, Li Dong picked up a stack of bowls from the table and led the man toward the Liu family’s table.

“Father, Second Brother’s concern for Ruhui is genuine and holds no other meaning. Please calm your anger,” Su Rutie interceded. He knew Su Wanhai had never been fond of Su Rujun and was about to lose his temper when this plea cooled him down.

Lying in bed, Ye Meng heard the house doctor’s words and felt a flicker of hope. Hearing Bai Ming’s remarks, she could no longer stay passive and had to get up.

“Over these days, I have witnessed Brother Chen’s conduct and demeanor. I believe he is a man of his word. Uncle, if you don’t believe me, you might as well give him a chance. After all, a lover is priceless,” Luo Luo said.

Peng Pei’ao was tall and loud. Seeing Zhu Xin and Jiang Wenli refuse to accept Chuan Yunpu’s account, his face flushed as he stepped forward to defend Chuan Yunpu’s honor.

“Don’t forget, I won! There’s a wager between us!” To divert their attention, Hua Wushang deliberately brought up the recent bet.

Not just Zhou Zhengyang, even Zhuge Yun found the notion of self-study rather ridiculous, yet he could only grit his teeth and nod in determination to see it through.

Rather than a mountain, it was more like a colossal fortress wall made of rock and soil. Because of its towering height, it resembled a mountain. Numerous snakehead sculptures adorned the wall, lending it a sinister aura.

He had thought of a thousand ways but never imagined he’d be helplessly dragged onto the bed... and, in a way, he didn’t want to get off it anymore.

Though Li Mingda and Li Zhi were young, they had long depended on their mother. Even though leaving the palace was their dream, they still lacked enthusiasm.

But when Li Zhan came to the perfumery and Xiangxin took out the perfume she had blended for him to smell...

Since Tao Yao was connected to the government, the Inspection Bureau would surely support her. If a fight broke out, it would be a violation.

Jie Yi was momentarily stunned. With her strength, she couldn’t tell what had just happened in the scuffle. Following Anbei Reiko’s frightened gaze, she finally noticed two squashed meat patties lying on the ground.
