She is timid.

Si Yun even doubted whether she had misread the situation. Blinking and confirming that the other elderly woman before her was indeed Master Zhang Baihe, Si Yun abruptly stood up and walked toward the two of them.

"Teacher Xu, Teacher Zhang, and Mom, why are you all together?" For a moment, Si Yun's mind could barely process it.

She had thought about approaching Zhang Baihe before—not to invite her to the embroidery exhibition, but because Zhang, much like Xu Zhengwei, shared the same lineage as her own grandmother. With Master Zhang currently in the country, Si Yun had hoped to ask her to visit the embroidery workshop for some guidance.

Earlier in the day, Cheng Ruoyi had asked Master Xu Zhengwei for help, giving Si Yun a tiny glimmer of hope, though she wasn't completely reliant on it...

Noticing that Koldark's attention had been drawn to this spot, the assassin knew he could no longer linger. With a swift, forceful palm strike to the back of Vera's neck, he knocked her unconscious, then stripped away the eight badges she carried at her waist. Seven of those badges were ones she had won by defeating enemies, while the remaining one was his own.

The morning bell rang. It was the first class of Monday, taught by the head teacher, who walked into the classroom accompanied by a new student.

"Taro is nothing more than a rotten taro with a ruined inside; what use could he possibly be? Cheng An, summon the guards from every residence in the estate and follow me to find the eldest young madam!" Cheng Yanzhong was frantic with worry.

How could she possibly be a match for Xu Renguang? Even with a fever and drained of strength, Xu Renguang was still far beyond what Wang Yuehan could handle.

Xuyuan looked with hopeful eyes at the face that was almost identical to her own, placing all her and Li Junxiu's hopes entirely on Chen Nuo.

Although Drusa had woken up, unfortunately, he was not only crippled but had also been reduced to an idiot.

After returning from the dinner party arranged for her by Qin Yisan, Ren Sinian, accompanied by him, went back to the hotel room Qin had booked for her.

The two men hurriedly bowed and nodded. Standing before Su Mu, even when they released their spiritual sense to probe, Su Mu still felt like an ordinary mortal, making them deeply hesitant. Such a circumstance proved that the ordinary-looking person before them was either a mortal or a cultivator—and a mighty expert far superior to them in realm.

Nodding in gratitude to Qingtou, Li Hai poured a pale green pill from the porcelain bottle and swallowed it without hesitation. The pill melted instantly upon contact with his tongue, turning into a cool stream of water that flowed down his throat and into his body.

The roaring train sped off into the distance. Han Fei sat inside, looking out the window with bored detachment; this mission had left him somewhat baffled.

Yuming had recently grown accustomed to sleeping in her own dorm. By the time Ye Qingfeng escorted Zui Ye out, Yuming had already left. Watching the gentle smile on Zui Ye's lips, Murong Lingxiang felt deeply stricken.

Two Bodhisattvas rushed over from left and right. Suppression runes poured in from all directions, and golden light flashed across the ancient Buddha realm, the opposing forces gradually weakening.

Unwilling to give up, Yao Fei circled the bronze coffin once more. Although he still gained nothing, he discovered something else entirely.

Wang Rong's mind immediately became active. Meanwhile, the security office had also erupted into chaos; following Manager Gao's strict orders, they now rushed forward with utter disregard for their lives.

The force of shattering mountains snapped the ink sword. With compounding hidden energies, the Daoist platform wobbled from side to side, making it difficult for the onlookers to stand as they stumbled and nearly fell.

They might act completely submissive and dare not make a peep before Big Brother Han, but days ahead were long, and Big Brother Han was neither kith nor kin to them; he wouldn't look after them for a lifetime.

The moment the title "Sister-in-law" slipped out, Weng Haiyao's entire face stiffened, while Xing Lü smiled with gratification.

Having condensed enough spiritual ink to paint a single cloud, they drew it into the Origin Spirit Gourd before slowly stepping into the python's maw.

Lately, she had constantly been reading stories about female college students being abducted into the mountains, abused for a lifetime, and only rescued when everything had changed beyond recognition.

Wang Shuang grinned, weighed the USB drive in his hand, and swore to properly complete the task assigned by Yuan Fenghui.

Huang Changgu himself was tempted by the reward for first place. Desert City had almost no third-tier pills for sale, and he expectantly watched the reactions of the crowd from Soaring Academy.

Living a second life, Wen Ying could not guarantee that every choice she made would be the correct one; what she had to do was continuously improve herself, equipping herself with the ability to withstand risks. No matter what happened in the future, she would be able to handle it, making regret utterly irrelevant.

King Wu's tutor, Jiang Ziya, and the Marquis of Xi Bo, Ji Chang, spoke. The Marquis said, "Old master, you've had a hard time; thank you for waiting so long." Jiang Ziya replied, "For the sake of supporting Zhou, overthrowing Zhou, and all the people of the world, it is no hardship."

The few older boys did not move together, mainly for fear that sticking in a group would draw too much attention and make it impossible to avoid recognition. Bai Muhuan even pulled up his mask, adjusted his cap, and slipped away on his own first.

Madam Lin was half-pushed and half-shoved out of the Su family gates, completely losing face. Her face was dark as pitch. Vengefully stuffing Shu'er's birth characters into her sleeve, she muttered a curse, patted down her wrinkled clothes, and hurried away.

That big fool talked so much every time that his ears hurt, so he simply got him drunk with a few cups and sent him back to be done with it.

Lin Yilu and Xia Tian exchanged glances. Xia Tian's eyes were utterly calm; when all was said andចេញ, this matter was ultimately about Lin Yilu's view, as an older brother, on his younger sister Lin Anping's life-shaping decision. She knew that no matter how much she wanted to speak up and make decisions for Yilu, she could not do so.

Ever since Albert turned eighteen, he had completely separated from his father and began living in Songlan Manor.

Perhaps as the memories, originally faint, gradually became clear with retrospection, the scene at that time directly surfaced in her mind, making her beam with joy.

If Ahn Jun-hyuk had suffered in his dreams, the only person capable of causing him pain was Ji-su.

The wounded were loaded onto the vanguard ship, which immediately lifted into the sky. Tens of thousands of warships were already waiting in low orbit.

Therefore, Li Yunfei put aside his previous displeasure and immediately put on a brilliantly radiant smile, inviting Faao to the seat of honor.

Xue Rengui was stunned for a moment, looked up at Li Su, then lowered his head to quickly glance at the meat on the grill, caught in a moral dilemma.

Everyone looked at him with worry; no matter how one looked at it, his appearance this morning did not suggest he was fine.
