Volume 1, Chapter 105: I Buy It for My Sister

Meng Xingyi hadn't expected Shen Chaowu to actually come to the bar to wait for him.

After beating up Guang Laiqian, his emotions were still hard to control.

That was why he'd sent a message to Shen Chaowu.

Just tentatively asking her: 【Sister, can you come pick me up? I'm a little drunk.】

Then he sent his location.

After sending it, Meng Xingyi didn't even dare look at his phone.

He knew.

Lin Yuxin's fingers pressed along Jiang Cheng's thigh, and with every touch of skin, Jiang Cheng felt goosebumps rise across his body. He kept feeling like Lin Yuxin's movements were a form of teasing, yet her serious expression suggested she genuinely believed she was treating an illness.

"You... what exactly is your name?" Li Fan looked at Li Xin, a hint of trembling in his voice.

"This isn't just my office—it's also our base's backup command center, so the security level here is much higher." Lei walked in first and answered.

"Once this news gets out, those Americans will definitely use it as an excuse to make a big fuss. There's only one way to stop them... seal off the information... kill them all!" Lei gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly.

Not because the dungeon was particularly difficult, but because these NPCs were so troublesome—they could drop dead at any moment if they took offense at something you did.

He had no idea what had happened in the short time he'd been away from the palace that made the emperor issue an imperial decree so abruptly.

"I have no idea what the Prince is talking about!" Feng Qianxi, what kind of person are you, really?

The original purpose of the marketing campaign was to get people to pay attention to the project, but for some reason, the public sentiment had shifted en masse toward the relationship between Bai Zhiqiu and Gao Zhan.

"Alright, the money's arrived. Jiahao, take the money back first and tell the brothers in the cafeteria to add an extra meal tonight—abalone, as much as they want." Lei checked the account balance and said to Li Jiahao with satisfaction.

At first, constrained by orders from above, they didn't say much about it. But as time went on, some people couldn't hold back and suggested trying a preliminary cooperation with the alien race.

"That's right, this is the national treasure of my Azure Dragon Dynasty!" Chen Nan said with relief, gazing at the Dark Tyrant with eyes full of doting affection.

President Li had always worn a stern, ascetic, expressionless face—except when it came to his wife, toward whom he was utterly compliant and impossibly gentle.

The third-year classroom had already become quite realistic—those with good grades sat in the front rows with other good students, and those with poor grades sat in the back rows with other poor students.

Before long, Ji Wudi, Jiang Yu, Gu Zheng, and Zhou Hong arrived together, leading the other elders of the four great families.

That mage hastily nodded, not daring to show the slightest hesitation, terrified that if the person before him grew irritated, he'd find himself separated from his own head.

Xie Jingxuan, perhaps harboring some concern as well, finally produced a peculiar talisman paper. As spiritual power poured into it, the entire talisman ignited on its own, though no wind was blowing.

This was an elderly man, clad in a simple gray robe, wearing none of the kasaya robes one might expect at a temple.

Li Shouxiang frowned slightly. She was a very clever person—she'd been too grief-stricken a moment ago to think clearly, but now she suddenly sensed something was off.

A cold, sharp glint flashed across the beautiful face of the young acolyte Yueqing as she watched the middle-aged inspector walk straight in through the door.

After all, she wasn't stupid—if her admirer knew that she was asking him to help save another man, even if he could help, he'd no longer be able to.

Tao Xue had been closest to her. Back in the accelerated class, she often took her to Guiyuan Residence to hang out, and occasionally she'd swipe her card to buy her gifts and snacks.

She didn't take Shen Guyuan's hot towel, but instead pulled out a facial tissue to wipe her mouth, then turned and left the bathroom.

Li Rufei's heart felt as if it were being sliced open. He rushed forward to shield her from the whip, while Zhou Chengling also knelt at Zhou Zhenwei's feet, trying to block the whip from falling.

On the contrary, Qingyu counting the items in full public view ruthlessly exposed the shamelessness and disgrace of the Marquis Zhongyong's household.
