Volume 1, Chapter 26: Caught in the Act of Writing a Resignation Letter

To be honest, when it came to his own grudges, he simply couldn’t bring himself to act. Call it saintliness or a soft heart, his nature was just fixed that way.

Li Qingming was completely bewildered; he had not expected this person to be so obsessed with news of death.

"Sister Yu, are you saying I’m noisy?" Qingwen wore an incredibly aggrieved expression, employing her tried-and-true tactics of acting spoiled.

This scene left the chiliarchs and personal guards stunned, breaking out in cold sweats and feeling lingering fear.

Now that Zhu Gaochi had taken over the Duke of England’s team, Zhu Yong naturally needed to build a good relationship with him to maintain this friendly connection.

Every word of that sentence was ostensibly for Chen Feng’s benefit, but everyone could hear the condescending tone behind it.

Chen Feng and Liu Yiyi sat in a nearby booth, while Xiao Ruoyi watched them with a sense of bitterness in her heart.

With this, the Five Great Evils, Wei Wuya, the leader of the Twelve Zodiacs, and the Master of the Heavenly Sect, Xiaoyaohou, had all perished in Seven Heroes Town.

I sat with Uncle Chai on the platform in the center of the villa; his whole body was trembling, and his heart rate had reached 110 beats per minute.

"If you don’t let go, we’ll both be sucked in. Be obedient." Wujie’s voice was incredibly gentle.

Aside from a few pieces of clothing, Zhou Qing packed only the jars of poison from the silkworm room into his leather bug bag.

It wasn't just idols in the mainland that were subpar; when Lin Zhengjie saw the idol groups in Hong Kong, he felt like retching. He thought the Hong Kong entertainment industry was truly in a slump, with all sorts of monsters and demons crawling out, enough to crowd Causeway Bay.

Gu Ling'er stopped at the entrance of the main hall. Not knowing who lived inside, she felt it would be improper to enter.

He enjoyed this feeling. He felt that Senior Sister Luo was perfect as an older sister, but as a wife, it just lacked that certain something.

He had thought that escaping the zombie catastrophe, torrential floods, and giant pit creatures was absurd enough.

On Monday morning, Lin Zhengjie knocked on his younger sister Lin Jiaxuan’s bedroom door and, after confirming it was safe, walked inside.

The Prince’s jade pendant—but how did this person know she had that pendant, and even know she had obtained it in the early hours of the morning? Could he be someone connected to the Hehe Si Tower? If he were, she couldn't admit it. What if he decided to kill her to silence her, just like that girl?

He had merely paused for a second in the lounge while changing out of his lab coat. It was out of a sense of duty as an attending physician and the slight bond of being half-friends that he had made this extra trip.

However, although Yan Jieling and Yan Jieqiang remained directors, Yan Jieling was stripped of her position as General Manager, with only Yan Jieqiang retaining his role as Deputy Supervisor of the bus operations.

Thus, a strange phenomenon had emerged. Even if ball lightning were truly quite bizarre and miraculous, it was still hard to believe it could be mysterious and miraculous to this extent.

Yi, helpless, had to take his iron staff and follow him inside. The cave was not large—no more than a dozen yards in length and width—and contained no furnishings other than a stone table, a few stone chairs, and a stone bed.

Jixiang said, "Brother Qu, that is incorrect. 'Mars entering the Heart' signifies disaster for the imperial family. In the thirteenth year of this dynasty, when Empress Xiaoxianchun passed away, that was the fulfillment." Scholar Qu and Jixiang refused to give in to each other and began to argue.

Several days ago, the authorities of Qitian City had issued an announcement, requesting that nearby villages take refuge in the city, but the vast majority of people remained where they were. They clung to the hope that their obedience would bring them safety, unaware that when the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken.

Nozawa Ichiro muttered to himself: If a ninja had intentionally set the house on fire, it would have burned regardless of how heavy the rain was. Besides, the rain had already stopped when the fire started.

With a shout, Dao Lang lunged toward the three thick wall bricks beside the swimming pool. With a single hand-strike, the bricks shattered, kicking up four feet of dust.

As for Yang Liu, whom he had just met on the plane, she was not very happy either, because she was currently on a blind date.

"Senior Brother, what is Junior Brother Mo Li waiting for? Why hasn't he made his move yet?" Lu Yi asked, feeling somewhat impatient.

Hu Li snorted. Under the moonlight, a silver fox roared at the sky, and behind it, all the fox kin lowered their heads in submission.

Li Maogong shook his head with a smile. No wonder his Senior Brother had left that disciple sword—usually just for show—back at Dagu Peak before they departed. It turned out that for his Senior Brother, that sword was truly just a decoration.

"Director Dong, why have you come personally?" Fang Dajun had originally been watching the situation from the side, but he now had to step forward because Dong Jianhua had suddenly walked through the door.

Although he had altered his age, he was only twenty-one in nominal age. The legal age for a marriage certificate was twenty-two, so he had to wait another year or so. However, after the engagement, they would be as good as married, and once Li Yulan moved in, there would be no gossip.

Every day, the amount of goods you produce is tallied, and there are two copies of the receipt: you keep one, and the finance department keeps one. At the beginning of the month, you check your wages; with the receipts in hand, you will know exactly how much money you have earned each day and each month.

Therefore, the younger generation of this world basically looked quite young. Except for the very elderly, who also experienced a certain degree of "rejuvenation," though the extent was always limited.

Fang Yan breathed a long sigh of relief upon hearing this, but for some reason, she felt a faint sense of disappointment. She was worried about her younger brother finding out he wasn't her biological brother, yet she also hoped he would find out; it was a very complex emotion.

"What are these?" Tong You felt that the Inner Demon had used her power to conjure up something quite dangerous.

"You go back to the Jiaoshan Commune with Brother Chen now, trade in the old sewing machines for a few new ones, and then Brother Chen, you stay at the Jiaoshan Commune to lead the tailoring. Sister Zhang, you pick out some waste fabric—coarse cloth is fine—bring over the old tools, and make sure these students are trained."

With the surge in population, the pressure on public security continued to rise. The police, urban management officers, and environmental protection guards were all complaining; they were too exhausted, working overtime every day, busy from morning until night without any rest.
