How much have you uncovered?
Si Yun called Ji Hanxiao, but there was no answer. She then rang the landline at the annex, where Xiaoxiao told her that he had gone out to pick someone up. Si Yun felt a headache coming on; if he really were the culprit, would he dare to run around so openly?
"What’s wrong?" Qin Yin asked curiously.
Just as Si Yun was about to speak, a notification popped up from a group chat titled "A Loving Family."
"Daughter-in-law, we’ve arrived in Suzhou. Do you have any free time at noon? Shall we grab a meal together?" Cheng Ruyi messaged.
He was also puzzled; if the other party’s background were truly more formidable than theirs, it would be impossible for him not to recognize this young man.
She caught sight of a familiar figure, seemingly gesturing wildly as if explaining something to another person.
Under Ye Qiu’s manipulation, a vast army of skeletons surged forward, their white, bony claws appearing ready to tear Elder Mu Zun to shreds.
Because of the poor reputation, fewer and fewer people came to eat. Eventually, someone discovered that the restaurant wasn't actually owned by Fang Zijin, which drove away even the fans. Business went from bad to worse, and negative reviews of Fang Zijin began to surface online.
Qin Xiaoxuan was shaking with anger and would have started a fight if Ma Zhe hadn't been holding her back. Even the waiter hurried over to separate the arguing parties and ask what had happened.
"Don't be nervous. I won't hurt the princess; I just want to whisper something to her," Mu Chengdong said with a calm, smiling expression.
Tian Shishu’s pretty face was filled with astonishment as she stared at Chen Teng in disbelief.
Qian Mingfu had already pulled up his contacts, ready to call someone to give Mu Chengdong a beating, but when he heard him accurately list every symptom he was experiencing, his fingers froze.
Shi Yujuan smiled slightly and took the initiative to link her arm with Mu Chengdong’s, looking quite intimate as they walked toward the car.
A white sedan sped past, crushing the box and scattering pearls across the cold pavement.
Thinking of the favor Jiang Xuerou had asked of her, she pondered for a moment. Something seemed to cross her mind, her eyes lit up, and she echoed Jiang Ruangxi’s sentiments.
But in her original world, she had several embroidery pieces in museums that featured just as many colors.
Su Mo had suffered many grievances during her three years of marriage to him. Thus, she would rather bear the infamy than stay—she had to get a divorce.
Logically, Li Xueyi and Xu Yixin had no connection at all, so how had Xu Yixin managed to manipulate her?
Unexpectedly, a gust of wind brushed past his ear in the next second. Kane pressed both hands against the wall on either side of his head, pinning him in place with a stern expression.
Lu Jin’s mind was in total chaos; he felt as though the plot of his previous life was about to repeat itself, only with the lead roles swapped—Liang Qiuqi replaced by Zhu Qian.
Chen Yi, a soldier, had been swept away by a flood while on duty and subsequently transmigrated to this place.
"If it were me, I might have left even faster than you, or perhaps I wouldn't have intervened at all—I might not have even climbed the mountain in the first place," said Meat Bun.
With a rapid dash, he cut down a zombie guard and charged out of the encirclement, arriving before the metal gate at the summit of the Immortal Kingdom.
"It seems you are quite different from the spirit beasts I imagined; you possess a fair bit of wisdom. However, spirit beasts usually take human form after five hundred years of cultivation. Have you not yet reached five centuries?" Hearing the phantom beast speak, he was slightly caught off guard and couldn't help but ask.
But now that his work was done, he wanted to refine more pills to keep on hand at all times. This left him with almost no time to spend with those around him, which made Long Shaofeng feel a twinge of guilt.
At this moment, Guo Bin couldn't help but feel secretly relieved; history was so heavy, so heartless, and so difficult to reverse.
Yet he also knew that if there were something Lin Anwan truly didn't want to talk about, he had no way of forcing it out of her.
Ever since Situ Haozhen had spent the night in the side palace the previous evening, Min Yunshu had to pay her respects to Empress Dowager Fu and the Empress every morning and evening, just like the other concubines.
"There was malicious inducement involved, but more importantly, it was due to her own choices," He Jianjun summarized. He didn't feel that Sheng Xia or the Sheng Dawei couple had treated Jiang Yan unfairly.
"Then when the time comes, I’ll make you the last of my three thousand concubines. You can help me wash my feet and give me massages, and for the rest of the time, you can stay in your room alone. How about that?" Long Shaofeng said with a laugh.
"Senior, I am a normal person; how could I possibly do such a thing?" Long Shaofeng explained.
"That works," Sheng Xia said with a laugh. Her embroidery skills were quite good; embroidering a five-pointed star wouldn't be a problem for her.
Yang Xiong was able to endure it at first, but after a long while, he simply went to the camp. With him not at home, Yang Yun’s stay was pointless, and she had no choice but to return in a huff.
"You beast! Apologize to Yiren right now! Tell her yourself what kind of disgraceful thing you've done!" Ye Fei kicked Ye Long, who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted sternly.
The weather was nice today, so Shaohua didn't follow Qianye out. She stayed at the inn to air out the quilt Qianye used at night in the courtyard. Estimating that enough time had passed, she went to collect it and happened to see Qianye and the others in the inn’s lobby.
Shui Yiren was on the verge of tears. Not only had this guy become shameless, but his combat skills were also even more formidable than before. In just two moves, her hands were pinned above her head.
Mu Fanghan’s body shuddered as he looked at Mo Qianyan, his dim black eyes suddenly welling with crystalline tears, and he nodded.
As for Yu Jianian, whether he was deliberately trying to compete with him or not, he was surprisingly enthusiastic and generous in offering them guidance.
At the time, the entire valley had been filled with laughter, leaving him feeling incredibly embarrassed, while she just watched him with a mischievous grin.
