Chapter 83: We Still Have Dates to Go On
Xu Yu gazed at Wen Han’s retreating figure, the corners of her lips gently lifting.
Shen Xianglian let out an awkward laugh. “I’ll go upstairs and check on Han.”
“Auntie, please go ahead.”
It turned out that when a person made up their mind, many things could be accomplished effortlessly. She was like that, and so was Shen Yue. Perhaps it was because the hurt had reached its limit; this time, no matter what Wen Han…
Yang Jie had long harbored the intention of befriending Annie, but she had been busy these days preparing her child for exams and hadn’t found the time to come over. All she knew was that Li Hao was a current member of the legendary “Team 43 Special Support Unit,” and also the leader of the team.
It was well known that he and Song Yu had always been rivals within the company, with a tangle of personal grievances between them.
Almost at the same moment, Annie’s hand lashed out, slapping away the paw that reached toward her.
Quick-witted as ever, Lin You immediately put everything down, poured tea, and fetched sunflower seeds and peanuts. She ‘casually’ brought up Xie Zijin’s participation in the competition.
As soon as they entered the room, before Annie could even close the door, Gu Sheng pounded the armrest of his wheelchair, laughing so hard he nearly doubled over.
Yet Liu Feiyun, watching their movements on the water, could tell this was anything but familiarity; they were complete novices. With the slightest disturbance, they could barely keep their balance. If they reached the river’s most turbulent center, they’d probably be dancing on the deck, and if they weren’t careful, they might try an impromptu dive.
The news reported that the strange man who had just drunk hot milk here was actually under the highest-level wanted order. Lu An could hardly believe her eyes, yet she was certain this was no hallucination.
The driver responsible for the accident was apprehended. After testing, it was discovered he was driving under the influence. The police detained him according to regulations, awaiting the court’s verdict.
“Your Highness! How could you…” Not long after, Guyu burst in, wailing at the top of her lungs, only to be silenced by a single glance from Qin Mingzhao. “Your servant understands, I’ll be quiet now.” She finished with a pitiful look at Qin Mingzhao.
When Qing Langgan received the Dragon Scale from the Moon Fox, he immediately guessed Ye Hui’s mission—especially since before Qing Langgan set out to sea, the Dragon Emperor Xing Jiangli had told him, “If you see Ye Hui, treat him as you would the Dragon Emperor.”
In the carriage, Feng Yunling wasted no time in asking Wang Qingchen about the Cloud-Stepping Technique. Wang Qingchen could only start by explaining the mantra to her.
It wasn’t until more than twenty people had finished, each exchanging glances with various expressions, that anyone dared to speak. When they tried, the guards silenced them with a single shout.
“So, what you mean is, she has already lost her memory and it can never be recovered?” Edward, unsettled by Merlin’s reaction, grew serious.
Both sides’ forces clashed around the southern section of the city wall for over an hour. Several times, the soldiers from Qingfeng Mountain managed to reach the wall’s summit, but Qin Ming and his companion always repelled them just in time.
To explain the situation truthfully would require too much clarification; Chen Hao didn’t even know where to begin.
The monster’s rasping voice sounded as though a thousand or ten thousand people spoke in unison. The terrifying force of corruption instantly enveloped Li Heng, erasing him, reducing him to nothingness.
The ministers were delighted. For one, Wu Zhi’s army numbered only fifty thousand, and even if their three armies combined forces, they would still be outmatched. With such numbers, they felt quite confident about the outcome of the battle.
Wang Fu, originally named Wang Pu, was renamed by the emperor to avoid sharing a name with Wang Pu, the eunuch of the Eastern Han. Wang Fu had golden hair and eyes, an enormous mouth said to be able to swallow a fist, and placed great importance on his appearance. His eyes were sharp, he was eloquent and remarkably clever, though not well-learned, and skilled at flattery and cunning speech.
“No, because a wolf’s enemy will never leave this room—and whoever leaves this room must be a wolf’s ally!” Carl, however, had a different opinion and paid no mind to Veronica’s sarcasm.
As soon as Isaac spoke, the furious Holy Faction, the doubtful Hidden Faction, and the onlookers from other sects all fell silent.
