Volume One, Chapter 39: Her Matters Are My Matters

However, Murong Yunyi also had many supporters. Among them, the most impatient was the General of Loyalty and Courage. The general submitted a memorial to defend Murong Yunyi and Lin Wanti. So, after a brief moment of surprise, all the clansmen who arrived later burst into laughter along with the seven brothers of the Zheng family.

Tian Nuanyu was taken aback. In the past, Mu Aoyun would never have allowed such a thing. Although he doted on Mu Yuxin, he was very strict about her upbringing. He might permit her to eat snacks in her room, but regular meals had to be taken in the dining room; not even the living room was allowed.

Qian Mo smiled gently, and Chen Xi felt that even the hardest of hearts would melt in the warmth of Qian Mo’s smile, along with all so-called grudges and enmities.

“Changfeng wishes Uncle Li and Aunt Li a lifetime of happiness together,” Nangong Changfeng continued after Li Shiru’s words.

“It can’t be that there’s some engagement arranged from the cradle, right?” Yixuan’s mouth twitched as she glanced at her mother’s scheming expression. Would such a farce happen to her, too? Xu Yichen also looked at his mother with a face full of wariness and warning, though it was unclear exactly what he was guarding against.

The outcome of this battle was already beyond doubt. No matter how fierce Pan Qiu was, he was only a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. Without having reached the Spirit Transformation stage, Pan Qiu was merely on par with Tie Hong.

Murong Chen raised his head and looked into her eyes earnestly. Only when he was certain she was telling the truth did he relax his grip a little, but he still held her, as if listening attentively.

Suddenly, a phone rang on a table in the corner of the exhibition hall. The abrupt ringtone startled the two who were embracing.

Shen Lingyu had just finished his fight when Zuo Nan arrived. In fact, Zuo Nan hadn’t heard the commotion outside. If he had, Ouyang would probably have come out long ago. Zuo Nan had only awakened in the middle of the night to find his master missing and got up, only to discover that someone had once again injured Qu Wurong.

This was the 29th floor of the Shiqi Group’s headquarters. She was now in the chairman’s office. Tian Nuanyu felt as if she were in a mirage in the sky, the thick and soft carpet beneath her feet seeming to float among the clouds.

And this helicopter not only carried people but also some equipment and corresponding medical devices. They had transformed a room into a clean space, turning it directly into a ward. Chen Min was sent inside, and the doctors began their work at once.

Jian Wei found the look in his eyes as he spoke rather meaningful, but she didn’t dwell on it. She had never met the Third Lady, though she’d heard she was a great beauty.

Ning Baobei and Luo Yiyi spoke in unison. This bet would determine their standing among the three of them in the future—how could they not wager?

She remembered he had said he wanted a deployment map, and Meng Huiqing, who carried it, was locked up in the laundry house. After all the twists and turns, things had come full circle.

In an instant, as the Philosopher’s Stone touched the Golden Apple Tree, a blood-red lightning storm erupted, accompanied by a wild gale that made it impossible for Shanshan and Ying’er to keep their eyes open.

After a long while, he finally picked up the wrinkled white silk from the bed with trembling hands to test Ye Junyi, but as soon as he placed the silk, it was soaked through with blood. Staring in disbelief, he brought the brightly stained cloth close to examine it carefully.

“You… you’re… Oh! Aren’t you the deputy leader of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Corps?” The servant’s face had just started to sour, but when he saw the Iron Wolf insignia on the visitor’s chest, his expression instantly improved, even better than a master face-changer.

This gesture seemed to be taken as a provocation. The lizard actually dropped its prey from its mouth, swaying its head and tail as it headed straight toward them.
