Chapter 74: Brothers of the Same Family
“Have you stared enough yet?”
There was a hint of annoyance between the Princess Royal’s brows.
“Your Highness, I beg your forgiveness. It’s just that your beauty is unparalleled, so breathtaking that these worthless eyes of mine couldn’t help but steal a few more glances.”
Ye Cheng hurriedly pleaded for mercy.
“Forget it, you’re a eunuch, and you…”
The fact remained: there was an overwhelming difference in overall strength between the two sides, unlike other matches that were filled with suspense.
“Darling, is what you’re saying true or not? Wei Lanyi, you say? Wei Lanyi is your godmother? The wife of the CEO of the AE Group?” The voice on the other end was extremely excited.
Qiao Dajiang had been watching over her. When he noticed she’d woken up, he hurried over and waved his hand in front of her eyes.
But Xiao Chen never could have imagined that someone would actually go so far as to give him an entire city just to draw him into their game.
Just as Lin Qian was at her most desperate, Xie Fei actually gave up. Not only that, he even apologized to her.
Jiang Chen immediately felt a tremendous pressure descend upon him, as if a mountain had been placed on his shoulders, making it almost impossible to breathe.
She really had married, really become someone else’s wife. It turned out she hadn’t just been angry when she said those things—she truly left him behind, truly didn’t want him anymore. He had lost everything. Without her, it was as if he had nothing at all.
Xie Jingyi mentioned it in passing, not lingering on the subject. She waved her hand and walked into the rain. She had come alone with her umbrella, and it was only fitting for her to return alone.
“Look at that—Jiang Yan is riding his motorcycle back!” Yan Bugui, playing chess with an old man, widened his eyes in disbelief.
When she returned to Moonlit Villa, Ajiu went straight to Madam Luo’s courtyard. Since her return, things had been hectic, and she hadn’t yet found the time to have a proper conversation with Madam Luo.
Instead, a strange power was circulating endlessly through his meridians. Its purpose was to guide the flow of energy in his body, instructing him to follow a mapped route—essentially, it was simply a method of internal cultivation.
“Why?” Yinghui cried out in protest. “Don’t I always come and go from the Cold Spring Pavilion as I please?” His greatest point of pride had always been this special privilege, to come and go without being summoned.
In fact, the people of the village wouldn’t even need to act; the Cloudlight Scarf gifted by Lady Shiji alone could easily catch a tiger.
“Is Young Master Yuan suggesting…?” After a month of interacting with Ajiu, Li Shouye had come to understand her nature. She was kind-hearted, generous enough to share even a lucrative business like Yuanxiangji with him, but she was never weak—especially when wronged. If someone provoked her, that person could only pray for mercy.
Fu Yu slapped her, hoisted the unconscious Mu Gaoyuan, and prepared to leave. Only a madman would listen to Wen Shushu.
Fortunately, this class wasn’t held together with Gryffindor; otherwise, the Charms lesson really would have turned into a disco. He still had a move—the Deadly Dazzling Ball—that he hadn’t used yet. He feared that if he did, even he wouldn’t be able to resist dancing. After class, Professor Filiwe exempted Hope from the homework.
“By the way, what brings you here? How is Madam Luo?” After pouring out her heart, Ajiu’s curiosity turned to his reason for coming to Gunzhou.
These instant noodles were truly something—their flavor was so overpowering that once the lid was opened, no one could resist.
“It was a Mr. Pu who gave the instructions personally. I’m not sure if…” Before the other could finish, Lin Shiyu abruptly sat up.
Shen Luan hadn’t often cooked at home, but after watching his mother so many times, he had already learned how.
“I’m going to take a shower first. Meimei, go to sleep!” Jun Jiujue couldn’t hear Xia Mei’s thoughts at all. After saying this, he dashed into the bathroom, and the sound of running water quickly followed.
