Chapter 28: Would she rather go to the countryside than marry me?

The siblings arrived at the lamp factory, only to be told that no one by the name of Xu Qinghuan worked there.

"How could she not be here? She took the recruitment exam yesterday and placed first. How is it possible that there is no record of her?"

Xu Manman had seen it with her own eyes. Suspecting that the security guard had been bribed by Xu Qinghuan to deceive them, her attitude turned sharp and unpleasant. She regretted that the red list from yesterday had been torn down; otherwise, it would have served as physical evidence. In these times, one could never tell who a seemingly down-and-out security guard might actually be.

After landing a slap, he glanced at Lin Duyi, whom he had struck into the Cauldron World, and then, with the heavenly tribulation descending upon him, he vanished into the Cauldron World from another direction.

That afternoon, the businessmen led by Boss Gong, who had accused Wei Xiu of financial fraud, collectively turned themselves in to the police. They claimed they had been coerced and directed by Gao Xingqiu and were forced to frame Mr. Wei Xiu. Now that they saw Gao Xingqiu was under internal investigation, the heavy burden in their hearts was lifted, allowing them to finally confess the truth.

Because of this, Chen Jiao had been targeting Ye Tanghua for days. Even knowing that she was a titled countess, she did not stop, obsessively seeking to extract benefits from her. It was not until this morning, after suspecting that Ye Tanghua had harmed her mother, that Chen Jiao finally snapped.

Upon realizing she was still alive, Wan Baoer was not only excited but also inexplicably curious. How had they managed to escape the attack of those two Black Wind Monsters? And why had she suddenly lost consciousness at that moment?

As the appointed day of the trial neared, looking out from the void beyond the realm, streaks of light formed by celestial chariots converged from all directions toward the gathering point designated by the Heaven Beyond Palace.

One might say the inner disciples of the Sun Palace, and even the young ladies of the surrounding Immortal-Gazing City, had been driven to the brink of madness.

It seemed that the couple had endured many cold stares upon returning to the Kong family. Yet, Xiao Tian knew that if it weren't for Kong Fang, Lei Zhuo’s explosive temper would have made it impossible for him to stay there.

"Yun'er, just tell us the third option. We're about to collapse!" Xiao Tian urged with a wry smile.

Even if he were no match for Xiao Yi and his companions at this moment, he did not believe they would dare to stop him or truly attempt to take his life.

Perhaps, since the pain was torturing his sister so severely, it would be better for her to find release early; it might even give her a chance to watch over Yan Luosheng.

She had once been a frequent guest in high society, and many people knew her, but because she had changed so much, no one recognized her now.

"The situation is a bit unique, so I won't exchange too many pleasantries with you. Carry on with what you were doing; I'm leaving now." Zhao Renfan glanced into the distance and then gestured for Ling Xiao to follow.

Fu Jingdong felt a surge of emotion. Sensing her tension immediately, he gently stroked the back of her hand, pouring the warmth from his eyes into her.

As it turned out, the Mummy Family had formed an alliance with others when the three realms merged. They had not expected, however, that their partners were wolves in sheep's clothing, harboring designs on the Mummy Family's ancestors.

She had known from the start that Zamiu was an extremely dangerous person; once you fell for him, there was no climbing out.

While I was thinking, the phone rang. I crawled to the bedside to answer it, only to hear the sound of a toilet flushing coming from the bathroom. Strange, do ghosts need to take showers too?

"Are you very powerful?" A sharp glint flashed in Leng Ran's eyes. Having such a formidable insect by her side might not be a bad thing.

Mother Shen glanced at Leng Ran, sat down on a nearby chair, crossed her legs, and sipped her tea, unbothered.

It wasn't until dinner time that Mother called out from downstairs, "Lanlan, come down for dinner!" which finally woke her. Still looking groggy, Wang Lanlan pouted, climbed out of bed with a sense of grievance, and thumped her way downstairs.

Shen Mobei’s hand, holding the chopsticks, paused. He looked up at her, then withdrew his gaze with a blank expression.

I discovered a dilapidated temple ahead, which held many mysterious treasures and legends. We decided to enter the temple to see if we could find anything that might be of use to us.
