Chapter 104: They... aren't married?

“You’re merely speculating—what evidence do you have to prove it?” Xu Yu instinctively retorted, not out of loyalty to Zhuang Zi, but because Shen Liangyan did not see it that way.

Perhaps Xu Yu had no ulterior motives, but as a man dealing with other men, he was acutely aware of the subtle schemes that could be at play.

Sharing his intuition with Xu Yu not only failed to gain agreement but also seemed to invite suspicion.

...

Now, with the cola iced and equipped with the level 30 weapon I gave him, plus a full set of gear—even though these were only low-level items at level 25—he had enough combat power to avoid being instantly killed. Why not take advantage of that?

“Hmph! You refuse a toast but accept a punishment drink! Today, I’m going to teach you a lesson!” Hao Weiso’s anger flared as Fang Zheng stubbornly refused to listen.

Fu Mingzhan thought for a moment, then took out his phone and dialed a number. When the call connected, he handed the phone to me.

“Such a formidable Undying Fire Phoenix!” Wang Xian’s heart trembled as the golden flames spread toward his position. He immediately manipulated the Great Celestial Array to bombard the flames.

Meanwhile, the enemy’s sinister intent in generously providing so much water had become glaringly obvious… she needed to relieve herself.

Wang Zheshan stood expressionless behind Zheng Xinhong, eyes closed in meditation. It no longer concerned him; whatever happened, happened.

After Lin Zhengdao finished speaking, the meeting room fell into a deathly silence, as if time itself had frozen.

Fu Mingzhan took a sip of red wine and approached Zuo Zhu, who was about the same height as him. Leaning close to Zuo Zhu’s ear, Fu Mingzhan whispered a few words. Zuo Zhu’s face instantly changed; he grabbed Fu Mingzhan by the collar and struck him in the face.

As the saying goes, sincerity can break even metal and stone. He believed that with enough determination, he could still overcome Lin Xi’s fortress. This time, he was unwilling to lose again.

Startled, Zhao Youquan quickly reached into his pocket with his right hand but was abruptly grabbed by Dong Li Mao. Leng Bing immediately moved forward to retrieve the phone; their coordination was impressively seamless.

In response, the Demon Kingdom remained indifferent. As long as the demon lords did not invade their territory, no matter how much chaos they caused, the Demon Kingdom acted as if it saw nothing.

As he spoke, Yang Aiguo’s eyes fixed intently on Roger, his expression tense, clearly trying to read something from his face.

Lan Qin remained still, allowing the wine to spill over her, but the Third Young Master watching this could not bear it. In a swift move, he was by her side, striking back at the wine with a palm, causing it to splash onto Zheng Wei.

The space was not large—like a room of seventy or eighty square meters, about ten meters high, roughly seven or eight hundred cubic meters. Within this void, the sky was black, with a giant cauldron suspended mid-air, radiating vivid light. The immense cauldron was at least over three meters wide and five meters tall.

Everyone looked at Xu Qian, feeling he was like a towering mountain, awe-inspiring and unreachable, yet also like a bottomless abyss.

President Wu smiled warmly and clapped his hands. Immediately, two waitresses entered, elegantly dressed in cyan qipaos that accentuated their graceful figures. They each carried a gift box wrapped in red cloth.

“I’m no fool. If you can’t see something so obvious, I should just go home and take care of the kids,” Lan Qin shot him a glare and said.

Those with schedules were ecstatic; those without were anxious beyond measure, trying every means to secure a slot.

After all, they had shared drinks as brothers before; they could not bear to see him suffer. First, they would deal with the early threat before rescuing him.

Later, the B2 project moved to Austin, where the Carlisle Group’s United Defense developed advanced vehicles such as the Bradley Fighting Vehicle and the M9 Armored Combat Bulldozer.
