Volume 1, Chapter 46: Peng Jiahuhu Makes a Fool of Himself Again

A rough baritone suddenly sounded right beside them. Tong En and Xu Hui raised their heads simultaneously, and their eyes widened instantly as if they had seen a ghost.

"Are you finished eating?" Muzi Ang's expression became exceptionally tender, making Ye Qingcheng extremely unaccustomed to such an atmosphere.

Lin Yuan'ai curved his lips into a slow, faint smile, signaling them to continue. Then, he walked quietly to the nearby rooftop, gazed at the distant blue sky and white clouds, and blinked gently. After a moment, he walked downstairs, got into his car, and drove away.

Ou Meng stared at Lion Three, who was kneeling on the ground and begging Mu Xifeng for mercy, and at the retreating army of beastmen. The corner of his eye twitched uncontrollably.

Catching Jin Yang's gaze, Lin Shenshen pressed her lips together, her expression fraught with insecurity. Deep within Jin Yang's eyes, she saw an identical trace of tension. Whether infected by Jin Yang's anxiety or not, the fingers with which she held Bo Rui turned icy cold.

His expression was focused and completely absorbed. Clearly, there was nothing on the ground, yet he searched with stubborn persistence.

It was already close to eleven o'clock, and Beijing appeared somewhat quiet. Because they were taking the Fourth Ring Road, there were very few vehicles on the streets. Only the colorful neon lights emitted a mottled glow, giving the entire city a somewhat sleepless nighttime vibe.

Muzi Ang took a deep breath, turned his wheelchair inch by inch, opened the ward door, and gently closed it behind him.

Immediately afterward, the sports car roared to life again, the engine emitting a cool, humming drone, and then the red vehicle surged forward.

"Eh? Why?" Zhang Zhiguo's words further confirmed my previous judgment; the relationship between the two of them was indeed extraordinary.

As the soup entered their mouths, the bodies of the two mothers trembled instantly and grew tense, a morbid flush blooming across their faces.

Upon witnessing this, Qing Tianhua was instantly startled and hurriedly shook Ye Haoran. The result, however, was that Ye Haoran remained completely oblivious, staring fixedly at the stone statue—or more precisely, at the statue's eyes.

Qin Lang paused for a moment, then slowly pulled away from her. The all-encompassing warmth swiftly receded, and Ye Li felt almost immediately as if the air conditioning in the room had been turned down too low. The chilly air brushed against her skin, causing her to shiver involuntarily.

Hua Ling slowly opened her eyes and found herself suddenly transported to a world that looked utterly desolate. Though her car was on a highway, the road looked as though no one had walked upon it for centuries.

There are not many behind-the-scenes masterminds as dedicated and hardworking as Mo Wuque. He had degenerated to such a clichéd extent that he was actually intentionally nurturing his own opponents.

Han Donglai gnashed his teeth so hard they crunched. Watching the rapidly approaching red phantom in his rearview mirror, he said each word with deliberate force.

As the head of the Wang family, Wang Lei had allowed all the town's residents to take refuge and recuperate in his courtyard for several months, effectively making him the default mayor. Seeing him drop to his knees, the crowd stood in a daze for a brief second before thinking better of it and following suit, dropping to their knees to kowtow and plead with Wu Daoxuan.

"This is called taking precautions before disaster strikes. Since I know that the Amaterasu Immortal Realm will help the Demon Realm besiege the Kyushu Immortal Realm two years from now, if I can bring about its destruction ahead of time, that could also count as an achievement of mine for traveling back from 2016 to 2014," Long Xiaofeng said as a matter of course.

A wealthy young man close to Young Master Zhang stepped forward to help him up and pulled him aside.

If analyzed purely from human motives, the person who did all of this was truly a thoroughgoing pervert.

Entrusting the final verdict to Wu Jiayan gave Qin Feng'an immense peace of mind. This was not only because she had managed the inner courtyard for many years with supreme skill, clear rewards, and strict punishments, but also because, despite her reputation for severity, not a single person had ever perished by her hand.

He did not understand many of the vocabulary terms of this world, but he could roughly guess what they meant.

A moment later, the reply came: You are not me; how do you know that I do not know you wish to take the imperial examinations?

Qin Tianchu, however, only smiled indifferently upon hearing this, seemingly paying him no mind whatsoever.

Not far from the entrance sat a black Maybach. Lu Xingzhi sat straight in the back row, his thumb rubbing the Buddhist prayer beads around his wrist.

Gazing at Mu Zi not far away, the stele spirit's gaze flickered. Ancient yellow radiance surged, once again condensing a stone tablet, which it delivered into Qianyuanzi's hands.

Although Hua Tangdi had ulterior motives, every word she spoke was the truth. In her few encounters with Su Feiran, Wang Qian had already recognized the latter's mean and treacherous visage. If she could be rooted out of the inner palace, it would indeed restore peace to the sisters.

"Weiwei, you and your second sister had such a huge incident, yet you didn't even tell the family," came the voice of Elder Yu outside the door, whom she hadn't seen for some time.

The quiet room was furnished with all sorts of ancient ritual implements, resembling a museum of ancient artifacts.

"Don't worry, though; I have also prepared this for you," Qianyuanzi said with a smile, glancing toward another sphere of light.

Shi Ye's private jet remained true to its character: understated yet luxurious. She went up to take a look around and unconsciously let out a sigh of relief.

Although she had been working very hard to study the sciences and had made great progress on this final exam, there were still some questions on the science test that she couldn't solve.

After tonight, the time for the second time-travel would arrive. Overall, the points obtained were a full third less than the first time. Combined with the two hundred-plus points from before the transit, she only had a total of 1,643 points.

Later, after taking over the Jun family army, how he had slaughtered his way across the land and nearly breached the Southern Liang imperial palace.

"Did you see that? My suitcase was packed by myself, not by some 'old man's servant' as you claimed. I, Yu You, have walked upright and sat properly all my life, and I have never wronged anyone. Nor have I ever been kept by anyone."

With that, she cast her gaze onto the faces of her stepmother Hu Li and stepsister Yu Wei. "On the contrary, it is this second-wife Mrs. Yu of yours who stopped at nothing to frame me, deliberately forcing a doctor to drag me in for an ultrasound."

Taking advantage of this window of time, Li Jiaying sent a WeChat message to Duan Weiqi, telling him that she was already at Chuangda. Her lunch with his older sister had been quite harmonious with no issues. Duan Shanshan seemed quite pleasant; she probably wouldn't go abroad, her mental state was good, and she even mentioned wanting to hold an art exhibition and was actively preparing for it.

Chen Jiaxuan could also distinguish primary from secondary priorities. Roughly perceiving that Mi Xiangxiang was merely a "secondary" companion and noting her youth, he assumed she was just a pretty vase for decoration, and thus arrogantly ignored her outright.

Whether it was because Xu Lingzhu's gaze at that moment was too terrifying or her tone was too serious, it actually frightened A-Miao into instant immobility.

Since she was going to be a guest at the Yan residence today, going empty-handed would be rather inappropriate. No matter what, it was best to go prepared.

At that moment, the flame of the oil lamp outside flickered twice and then went out with a soft puff.
