38 How to Deal With a Group of Straight Men 03

Everything he said was true; the palace grounds were indeed filled with beautifully intertwined iris purple and blue blooms, a truly stunning sight, though they were located quite a distance from the main hall. She turned to look at Mo Huan, only to find him avoiding her gaze. Lin Feiye suddenly felt a sense of unease. She had not given much thought to becoming famous in the future; such matters were still far too early for her, and she had not pondered them deeply. Now that the photos were taken and all the souvenirs purchased, they were just waiting to be mailed back later.

Ye Ke smiled faintly and stepped forward, his demeanor shifting entirely. An aura of absolute dominance radiated from him, accompanied by a terrifying presence. He was a doctor, not a savior; he could heal many patients, but he was powerless to save a terminal patient whose body had already been ravaged by cancer. Cao Yushen said to Liu Runyu, "Stay here safely," before leaping upward. Liu Runyu could only sigh; she knew Cao Yushen was doing this for her own good, and in these circumstances, there was nothing she could do to help.

Lin Feiye frowned, scrutinizing King Hao closely, hoping to glean some clues from his face. Everyone knew that King Hao was close to the Empress Dowager, so his words might well be an attempt to protect Ning Wuyao’s life. Bypassing the formations, one could see willow trees lining the imperial road. It was May, and a gentle breeze swayed the weeping willows, making the shade feel much cooler. Lin Wanyong wiped the sweat from his brow, only then realizing he was drenched, and he could not help but shiver uncontrollably.

Lü Xining took a deep breath. Looking back, the young man was indeed standing behind her, his eyes half-closed as if smiling, yet his lips were clearly not turned upward. Bai Tanhua, Nie Changqing, and the others joined in the heckling, which put Hou San in a difficult spot. If he were to make a move now, everything would be exposed. Ling Xiquan suddenly understood why one could always see news of couples in the throes of love embracing and kissing in public as if no one else were around. Takuya was the first to confess his feelings to Tie Rou, and she naturally assumed he only liked her because she had saved him.

Charlotte grabbed a gun and rushed out of the room with Hu Meili. Now, ignoring everything else, they just needed to find an exit and get out as quickly as possible. The gunfire on the second floor grew even more intense. As they ran, they passed over a wire mesh, through which they could see the situation below. Once she left, Luo Ange twisted my ear, reminding me that we had promised to have dinner with Old Madam Guan and Xi Bao that morning.

"Carry you, my foot! Are you trying to stir up trouble again?" Qiu Yingying retorted to Qu Xiaoxiao without hesitation. Sun Yifan ran another lap and returned to find Lu Jinyang still panting by the roadside, then walked slowly over to his cousin. In Liu Yuanhao’s view, no matter which of the two heroes Yang Rui used, he would be countered by Dongzi. Zui Xian recalled what his master had said in his childhood; not only then, but even now, he found it hard to believe that a man as godlike as his master would actually have someone he admired. Yet now he finally understood that his master had not been joking; he truly admired that person.

The three families held immense power in Bingzhou. Only in a few cities, such as Shangshui City, did the magistrates pose a thorny problem; they were not only disobedient but also quite resourceful, in turn suppressing the three families. As the branch stationed in Shangshui City, Yun Ping felt immense pressure and could hardly hold his head up when facing the rest of the family. Niu Niu asked Jia Xibei with concern, as he did not yet understand the New York State laws regarding gun ownership. Luo Jinying did not stop them; she wanted to see how many more people could enter, knowing that there were already well over a hundred people inside.

Thus, Long Fan was left completely bewildered, not hearing a single word, and was dragged along by the other person for a long time. After hearing Yi Chen’s words, although Yan Xue was shocked, she did not show it on her face. She then fiercely waved her hand at the office door, and it slammed shut with a bang. Master Chanye looked down at Wei Wuji, his palms pressed together, guarding against Wei Wuji’s next attack. She thought it would be wise to cultivate a group of loyal and capable people; their cultivation did not need to be high, so long as they were absolutely loyal to her.

The young man before them remained calm in the face of danger, unflustered by change, and even while fighting, his grace remained undiminished. Yi Chen was dressed in the most ordinary clothes imaginable; all the items on him combined totaled less than two hundred dollars, which was quite low even by the standards of a college student—utterly rustic.

Inside the center of the array, the red orb of light, wrapped in blood-evil energy, developed a crack. Immediately following, countless cracks began to appear. An extremely violent force seemed ready to burst forth, and through those fissures, one could vaguely see blue and golden light, accompanied by a low, deafening sound. "My mother is also a doctor; she recently returned to her maiden home and I learned a great deal from her!" Xiang Baobei said. Perhaps no one but Mu Qingqing could be addressed as "Mistress" by the Dark Night.

Although Huang Yan and Jiaoyue saw Mu Qiange take this palm-sized, brilliantly glowing ink-colored stone from her space, they were tactful enough not to ask. Yang Tao nodded vigorously: "En, I understand, I will go do it now." With those words, she walked away with a joyful stride. These two matches ended at the same time; because of Feng Rushuang, Ye Yun paid close attention to both.

She thought perhaps she had seen wrong, but when the person looked back at her, there was a sense of numb indifference in his eyes. He did not doubt that his imperial brother and mother would lie to him about this matter; if it did not exist, it did not exist, and he could distinguish this from the attitudes his mother and brother displayed. It was precisely because Consort Qi knew certain things about Yuan Zhen and kept them secret, continuing to treat him as she always had, that he now trusted her implicitly.
