The young lady has a fever!
She was perfectly fine before leaving. How did she suddenly come down with a fever?
Wan Shuang hurried out and instructed Chun Tao to fetch the household physician.
“Young lady, you were perfectly well before leaving. How did you come down with a fever after merely going out once?” Wan Shuang’s voice was anxious and trembling, overflowing with concern.
After examining her, Physician Liu said, “The Fourth Miss has a knot in her heart, and she was exposed to too much cold wind today. That is why the fever came on so suddenly. One of you, come with me to get the medicine. Once she takes it, the fever will subside.”
“Yes!”
Chun Tao followed him.
Wan Shuang stayed behind to care for her mistress. She could not understand it. The young lady had been cheerful all along—how had she suddenly developed a knot in her heart?
What could that knot be?
The young lady has a fever!
She was perfectly fine before leaving. How did she suddenly come down with a fever?

Before the several nonhumans who had gathered around could figure out what was happening, Hao Yu, blazing with rage, subdued them. They were merely ordinary mutated creatures, at most somewhat larger than usual. How could they possibly be a match for Hao Yu, whose combat strength was at the sub-king level?
A well-matched family background might seem to many young people like a thoroughly detestable remnant of feudal thinking. Yet after experiencing certain things themselves, they would understand that when two families were evenly matched, there would be no invisible gulf between them. Their worldviews, values, and outlooks on life would all be compatible.
Those who had not reached the Grandmaster realm found it difficult to sense the aura condensing in the air. To subdue an enemy without fighting was not merely a saying—it was real, as demonstrated by the young doctor before them. His mind was currently besieged by one “ghost” after another, each representing a medical mistake he had made.
Zhou You had no earpiece and therefore could not receive the command center’s reports. He had no idea whether it was the sharp-tongued, laughing-and-cursing proprietress or the innocent and carefree Tong Tong who had been taken hostage.
Although Zeng Jing had used several beautiful words to describe her own body, I felt that, given her peerless beauty, they were not excessive in the slightest. Indeed, it was precisely those adjectives that made everything feel more comfortable and more real to me.
For the magazine launching tomorrow, Takahashi Deno’s former colleagues were still bent over their work.
The moment the Artifact Spirit’s voice fell silent, Hao Yu hurriedly gathered his thoughts and concentrated his attention.
Although Guan Hui’er had not asked Bian Yuanhang for quite some time how his parents viewed her...
The nun shook her head and sighed. Then she recited a long passage of Buddhist teachings to me. In essence, she was telling me to let go of my attachments, that everything was merely smoke and mist from the past—nothing more than an illusion.
“What are you talking about? Why is it so lively?”
Xia Tianqing had risen as well. She combed her hair as she strolled down from upstairs.
Although Allen officially worked for Riot Games, he was European himself and usually commentated on European LCS matches.

Manager Chu had not seen his parents for a very long time, so he decided to cook a sumptuous lunch himself.
Xiong Pi looked at the nearly vanished, dark-gold “Ginseng King” in his hand, carefully put away this final relic of his grandfather, and gave Xiao Mo a slight nod to show that he was all right.
Having learned from her previous experience, she no longer dared to approach casually. After all, men’s hormones were especially vigorous early in the morning, and drawing near could be dangerous.
Watching Yao Changfeng leave, Lu Baichuan’s gaze toward An Xia grew gentler still. They had not seen each other for more than half a month, yet she had grown thinner again. Her school uniform hung loosely from her frame, and her chin was sharper than before. He felt somewhat guilty. He had promised to take good care of her, yet had allowed the Lin family to bully her. How had he failed to notice something was wrong last time?
Aside from the few aunts who had important matters to attend to, most of the other aunts had also arrived.
The moment she lifted her leg, Cao Ruinian immediately followed close behind. Along the way, he behaved as meekly as a quail. Though the land belonged to his family, he did not dare ask even the slightest question.
A clear, pleasant voice rang out behind him. When he turned around, he met her smiling face.
The lightning that had entered the underground formation was absorbed by the spirit stones Chu Qingya had prepared in advance.
Precisely because every one of them was exceptionally beautiful, each possessing her own allure, they were all the more likely to catch the eyes of those wealthy men and arouse their desire. At that point, could their wishes still be called wishes?
To be honest, he felt he could not handle it. It was a psychological barrier of sorts—he could not make the shift in roles, nor could he make the emotional transition.
