Inside the jeep, the air seemed to have frozen solid.
Huo Chenyuan’s questioning weighed on Jiang Yu’s heart like a massive stone.
“Were all three of those things merely coincidences?”
In the rearview mirror, a pair of piercing eyes stared fixedly at her, missing not the slightest change in her expression.
Jiang Yu’s heart was pounding as though it might burst from her chest, yet she forced herself to remain calm.
She did not answer directly with either yes or no.
Instead, she lifted her eyes and met Huo Chenyuan’s gaze.
“Big Brother, I simply suffered too much in the past, so I’m more cautious about everything I do.”
“As for Hei Zi, I went to the black market to buy medicine before the hospital was sealed off, and I saw him furtively trading with someone.
“As for the military canvas…”
Inside the jeep, the air seemed to have frozen solid.
Huo Chenyuan’s questioning weighed on Jiang Yu’s heart like a massive stone.
“Were all three of those things merely coincidences?”
In the rearview mirror, a pair of piercing eyes stared fixedly at her, missing not the slightest change in her expression.
Jiang Yu’s heart was pounding as though it might burst from her chest, yet she forced herself to remain calm.
She silently left, shedding a tear in Supreme Treasure’s heart, only to be taken back in the end by the Bull Demon King.
Feng Ge ignored A Huang, fixing her bright eyes on Young Master Yue. Her palm, wrapped around the Evil-Slaying Sword, had begun to perspire faintly.
Lu Bu dismounted without hesitation and casually slapped Red Hare on the rump, as if urging the horse onward.
Who the young master was marrying did not matter in the slightest. What mattered most was that he was getting married—and that the young mistress was even more formidable than he was.

Ye Canglan’s gaze shifted toward the man in green robes. With his jade-like face, tall and graceful figure, and handsome, distinguished bearing, he was in no way inferior to Young Master Yue.
Things had already begun developing in the right direction. Nan He felt that it would not be long before Southern Splendor Garments grew ever more prosperous.
There was a hint of drunkenness in his voice, yet it remained as indifferent and cold as ever, so淡淡 that it held no emotion at all.
Warm Warm cast Jin Chen a cool, indifferent glance. His performance was truly convincing. If Jin Yunping came to the Jin family, he was afraid that this was more or less what he intended.
The plate was shattered into countless pieces, and fitting each fragment together could illuminate a great deal. This discovery left Yang Taoxi so engrossed that she forgot both food and sleep.
Mengmeng was startled by Su Yun’s sudden embrace. Normally, she was the one who opened her arms to signal Su Yun before he would hug her.
“Heh-heh, Boss, I’m just used to it. Whenever I hear the word ‘treasure,’ I can’t help myself.” The Monkey grinned shamelessly.
A deafening explosion rang out through the jungle, frightening the birds and beasts into fleeing in all directions. Even some demons that caught the slightest whiff of the scent fled in a frenzy.
“I don’t know either, but since there have been precedents of prodigies profiting from it, it should be genuine.” Kasasuo was somewhat puzzled as well, but he offered no explanation.
Yet if they withdrew their troops, the enemy would certainly pursue them relentlessly. By then, they would suffer heavy losses, and once the matter was reported, he would undoubtedly receive severe punishment.
Outside the passageway in the distance from the palace, Wei Yuanjiu, Wu Huangfeng, and several other supreme elders were already waiting.
Apart from the city gate, Lu Feng had no idea where to go. The world was vast, yet where was he supposed to head? Two years had passed, and now he was once again as lost as when he had first left Windwhisper City.
Today, after Shi Mengmeng finished playing her tune, Li Yan stopped practicing his punches. Seeing her serene smile, he prepared to praise her with a few words.
Lang Lele drank her soy milk, deliberately let out a belch, and stared at Xixi with wide eyes. Her expression clearly conveyed… profound reluctance.
Xin Shisiniang’s voice was filled with sorrow. She had imagined many possibilities—perhaps Feng Sheng would come to rescue her, or perhaps he would come to see her off. She had never expected that the person who would risk everything to protect her would be A Lu. The realization left her both happy and heartbroken.
Even though Lin Nuannuan felt terrible all over, she could still tell that the girl was deliberately causing trouble. She pressed a hand to her forehead and wanted to say something more, but her throat suddenly itched. Fine—she was feeling ill again.
Seeing this, Lu Tangtang decided not to trouble Li Meng after all. She simply followed his lead and said a few things, making him laugh heartily before finally hanging up.
She said, “Since you have already begun refining qi into your body, spend the next two days consolidating your cultivation. This is the foundation technique of our sect. Look through it when you have time.” With that, she tossed Zhang Si’er a jade slip and returned to the guest room.
She sat on the armrest of the chair, leaning against Donghuang Taiyi, her legs slightly bent and dangling down. The sight was utterly captivating.

Lu Tangtang smiled faintly, her gaze falling upon the road ahead. It was almost as if she could see the entire path strewn with flower petals, leading toward the farther shore of happiness.
When I heard Lin Xian say that, I instantly felt refreshed and gave him a broad smile.
It struggled desperately, trying to break free from the shroud of black mist, but unfortunately, it was completely useless!
He used to sit before the chessboard, a chess piece pinched between his fingers. One night would pass, and then an entire day.
“Remember that I am your backer, not the Ji family.” In the end, Ji Yanmo kindly offered him a reminder. The implication was clear: it did not matter what the Ji family said. He was the one who made the decisions.
That would be excellent. So long as he stayed close to her and let everyone know they were on good terms, she would surely agree for the sake of appearances.
“My king, there are more than a hundred of them! Won’t we be trampled into minced meat if we go there?” Xianyu Long’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat as he looked at the hundred-odd men advancing with such ferocity. Many of them were people the three of them had robbed over the past few days. Sending them over now would be no different from sending them to their deaths.
Xiong Lin wanted to get his money back. But if the police caught Ugly Aunt, she certainly would not say that she had done it for money. She would definitely claim that he had deceived her feelings, which was why she had joined forces with someone else to swindle him.
Zhang Dong thanked her. He seemed somewhat afraid that Gu Junyan would scold her. Nian’an merely smiled and continued to bring Gu Junyan a cup of warm water.
After forcing herself to eat a little, Nian’an changed into sterile clothing and went to the ward to take a look at her grandfather.
Later, they heard that if they accomplished something of enormous benefit to the world of Azeroth, the Titan Father God who dwelled in the city of Suramar would once again bestow the essence of his power upon them.
Min Rou felt deeply uncomfortable. How could they have imagined that the Mohist Grandmaster would show not the slightest mercy and insist on putting Shi Qingxuan to death?
“Anyway, anyway, I’m going to marry Educated Youth Tao.” After saying this, Dani went to wash her hands. Once she had finished, she began serving everyone their meal.
At once, the wealthy spectators in the stands began placing their bets. Without hesitation, they chose the brown bear, even though the silverback gorilla had odds of one to three.
She hurried out of the fitting room, still wearing her original gray knitted sweater.
Xiang Yu was the Overlord of Western Chu—broad-backed and powerfully built, tall and imposing. Even in the modern era, he could have joined a basketball team. With such a robust physique, he had somehow still failed to satisfy Consort Yu. It was utterly inconceivable.
The question was so outrageous that even Yang Yifei’s old face reddened. Consort Yu truly regarded him as one of her own.
