Chapter 122: Didn't You Say You Would Take Care of Me?

“No, I won’t.”
If Wen Han hadn’t intended to kill her, she wouldn’t have been taken to E Country, and Wen Han wouldn’t have had a car accident that left him blind.
Wen Han’s nature was hard to change; without that foundation, nothing that followed could be altered.
Shen Yue was about to object, but when he lowered his gaze, he saw Xu Yu’s almond-shaped eyes brimming with tears, the corners reddened.
He frowned again, his voice squeezed out through clenched teeth.

Jiang Chengce raised an eyebrow and replied in Malay, “It’s the middle of the night; where are you all heading? The construction site has already shut down.”
Gu Chen’s spiritual consciousness stirred, and from the Beichen Star Crystal ring on his hand flew out a green spirit sword, several books, and over a dozen spirit stones.
For the Feng Zhen family, moments of warmth were brief and precious. The family of three naturally treasured this hard-won intimacy deeply.
So she took her lunchbox and left the CEO’s office, heading to the staff lounge on her floor. She opened the refrigerator and placed her bento inside to keep it fresh.
He stood and rummaged through a wooden cabinet, pulling out a bone-patterned porcelain bowl. With great delight, he unscrewed the bottle cap, pouring the thick fine wine into the bowl. Instantly, the fragrance filled the entire room.
At that moment, it wasn’t just Wang Zhuo—every Wang family scion looked at Chen Rong with favor. She had decisively acknowledged the ghostly warning and mentioned that several young members of the Wang family had long been aware of the drought. As such, even the public would only say they had acted rashly.
“Very well, then thank you for your esteemed gift!” Xuanyuan Wudao opened the wooden box under Feng Luoyu’s smiling gaze, revealing two blue-and-white porcelain wine bottles. In an instant, a rich aroma wafted forth.
Ordinary people might withstand it, but the alliance members were no ordinary folk. One after another, they forged glowing spheres of alliance light, forming a massive protective shield entirely constructed of spiritual power, resembling a battered luminous pearl.
Gu Chen’s heart skipped a beat at Yan Yi’s appearance. He had thought she was joking with him earlier, but her expression told otherwise, sending him into sudden panic.
Three loud explosions rang out at the four corners of the stone coffin. Lightning and shadows darted wildly around it, obscuring the coffin’s true condition.

Chen Xi felt overwhelmed by the ever-growing crowd and the imaginative theories circulating, especially with many snapping photos of him.
Moreover, as he narrated and observed their reactions, he gradually discerned some personality traits of the three men before him.
But that was only the surface; beneath the calm exterior surged increasingly turbulent undercurrents.
For example, if Zuo Feng truly fell, his clone trapped in the Eight Gates Sealing Space could ensure his survival.
“When do you and our benefactor plan to start mining the gold?” Dugu Canfeng hesitated before asking.
The entire street fell silent until someone shouted “Good!” breaking the stillness. Almost simultaneously, the crowd erupted with a thunderous cheer.
At that moment, Si Geng was stunned, while Tan Xian laughed, bent over the table, convulsing as if about to burst.
In the end, they could only obey Ling Qingxuan’s orders and continue searching for Du Yu’s trail in the jungle, refraining from joining the assault on the Kunpeng Strike Team.
