Chapter Ninety-Six: Utter Disappointment

Yan Xuan readily agreed; after all, he was just here to take a look, and it didn’t matter who showed him around. Having his good friend Shen Li lead the way made him feel more at ease.

Shen Li pulled Yan Xuan into the elevator. “Come on, let’s go straight up. I’ll get the keys.”

They got off on the tenth floor, where the building’s property management office was located. Shen Li told Yan Xuan to wait at the door and dashed inside.

Shen Li was just at the entrance...

This is also why so many leaders lack any real crisis management skills, which has led to the current situation.

Inside the office, Zhou Shiyan had just turned around and locked the door. Su Yao hugged him from behind, her arms wrapped around his waist, her face pressed to his shoulder.

Tang Bin ordered all cavalrymen who were out training to return, bringing enough rations for seven days. After a round of mobilization, they descended the mountain overnight.

It’s not surprising that Xi Zirong was overthinking it; he noticed that Xu Su didn’t show nearly as much concern for him, never paying attention to his habits or ways of living.

Yun Honghui was quite familiar with that trace of aura. In fact, compared to the first time he clashed with Yang Yunxi’s spiritual power and saw its manifestation, the sense of kinship now felt even stronger.

He had actually already prepared himself for death. As a mortal force aligned with these dark sorcerers, once you know too much, there’s never a good ending.

Watching the replay at home after the match, Li Boen heard this segment and thought, should I bring out the Puskás Award ten years early?

It wasn’t that he thought the gold bars were of much use now, but rather that they would be useful later on.

By this time, the three siblings Leng Aoyun, as well as Leng Boxiong and Leng Mingjie, were already practicing in the garden.

“Thank you, Brother Wei Cheng!” the prince said on the phone, having successfully outmaneuvered Du Kang this time.

“Rachel!” There was no need for Stefania to call; Rachel was already rising. There was a rule between them: wherever one went, the other had to be there too, all for the sake of Stefania’s safety.

Jiang Shan squinted toward the outpatient department. Now, Gu Ren’s appointed people were renovating the prince’s shop. Many were busy at the entrance. Jiang Shan nodded; Hua Zi did make some sense.

Lu Yuting walked up to the Japanese rōnin, removed the dirty rag from his mouth, and then found a chair to sit down.

Ever since meeting Yun Piaoying, Lu Shuqing seemed as if his soul had been taken away—restless and at a loss. He grew anxious, unsure whether to continue his investigation. Lost, he wandered aimlessly, and before he knew it, he was standing at the entrance of a large supermarket.

Listening to the prince’s words, Wang’s father felt a bit more at ease. After asking about some family matters, he hung up.

Each bee seemed to respect the stone monument; whenever they flew near, they would always avoid it.

Now, since Ivy Millie no longer took Peach to school, Peach was left idle and had become the household maid—washing clothes, cooking, taking care of Leah. In short, she was doing everything.

The mighty cultivator who passed down this technique could never have imagined someone like Rachel would appear.

Hua Qingshan felt a chill in his heart; he could see that Bai Xiaojin wasn’t joking—she was truly pushed to the edge.

The third punch: the man’s fist crashed into Director Li’s mouth. Crack! His jaw fractured and three front teeth flew out.

Niu Suqin’s meaning was clear: if you dared touch Shu Bao, she’d bite you to death.

That can’t be right. How could I do such a thing? Besides, I haven’t been alone with Li Man many times, and I don’t even remember drinking that time.

“Yu’er...” Just then, a voice full of excitement rang out from the merchant ship, making Chen Yu and the others look up curiously, squinting into the blinding sunlight at the person on board—but the glare was so strong, they still couldn’t make out who it was.
