Volume One, Chapter 45: Why Did She Come?

Before Song Ying and Wei Ying’er in the ward could even react, Lou Nanzhi had already pushed open the door and walked in.

“You…”

They had tried every method: psychiatric medications, antidepressants and mood stabilizers, seeking soul retrieval from a village shaman, and even exorcisms by Taoist priests, but nothing worked.

Long Liang stopped the car. They were now near the military headquarters and needed to ask Instructor Fang if it was possible to contact Instructor Yan.

“Hehe, I’m being shameless. I didn’t bring any liquor—after all, it can’t compare to yours—but I did bring some good dishes. Here, this lamb—Tanyáng, authentic. I got it from a friend; just have the kitchen prepare it!” Fan Weiqing said with a smile.

The crown prince, unaware of the situation, was somewhat puzzled as to why the ministers were all sweating profusely after he had only spoken a few words.

“I’ve gathered some concrete evidence!” Qin Yi said, then proceeded to recount all the proof he currently held.

The drug-enhanced soldiers were incredibly fierce, impervious to pain. Even though many soldiers resisted desperately, they could not hold out for long.

“Good, good! With such awareness, I’m naturally willing to give you a chance to redeem yourself through meritorious service!” Qin Yi said with a smile.

The Prime Minister struck back without hesitation. Though she was rigid in her ways, she would not tolerate groundless slander.

Whether it was feasible to adopt Zhang Maocai into the Lu family was questionable—on one hand, whether ritual propriety could be observed, and on the other, Zhang Maocai was a disgraced man, so whether the law would permit this was uncertain.

People have pride, and trees have bark. Even the closest relationships cannot withstand constant free meals and drinks. Any normal person would find it unbearable, much less when it comes to precious things like Liuli fruit—the favor was just too great.

This was not hard to guess. Ye Xian was a powerful minister, skilled at manipulating hearts and minds. Fan Zhaoran, not being particularly cunning, was easily seen through and exploited, which naturally led to this outcome.

Howard was like a rootless duckweed, suddenly pushed aside by the sudden surge of Shi Lei. Then, under everyone’s gaze, Shi Lei lifted the basketball over his head and slammed it into the hoop with one hand.

LeBron James harbored deep resentment against Shi Lei. The American team hadn’t taken the national team seriously. Upon receiving the ball, LeBron forced his way past Shi Lei.

Jiang Tian poured thousands of blocks of deep-sea copper into the furnace. The metal heated so evenly that the mere control over the fire amazed everyone as if it were a miracle.

There was no other choice. Countries around the world could only grit their teeth and accept it. After all, this enhanced serum was unique and, frustratingly, uncrackable. What else could they do?

He remembered the estrangement with Shang He, but even more so, he would never forget their brotherly bond, which he deemed even more precious.

Grabbing the face of the intelligent treasure, Yun Fei sneered and unleashed the vilest, most hateful curses gathered from every corner and culture of the world.

“No, Dawali, you take care of the children. I’ll deal with the envoy from the Great Snow Mountain.” Ram tucked his pipe behind his waist, stood up, hung the curved blade from the cabin on his thigh, and slung a hunting bow onto his back.

The patriarch of the Zi family nodded and began recounting the series of disturbances Zi Lingtian had caused in the Ancient Plains.

However, as the others watched the crazed, swirling sword aura surrounding Tang Chen, they could not help but feel a chill down their spines.

City B always had two high-end villa districts. The first was Longting Shanshui, and the second was the private villa district of the Sheng Tang Group.

“Ah Gan, I think you’re being a bit too reckless about your path,” Andy said, his voice a little loud.
