Chapter 46: My Heartbeat Wants to Sleep with You More Than I Do

"Although your second brother is already in his thirties and hasn't found a girlfriend, he is steady and never goes out carousing except for work matters. As for your eldest sister, aside from being busy with the company, she maintains wonderful relationships with the noble ladies and socialites here in the capital. And needless to say about your second sister—she is currently touring abroad, surrounded by peers who share her exact hobbies and interests. Besides, both of them are young women, so there's no rush to look for boyfriends."
Ning Qing went on at great length, listing everyone in the family except—

Down in the hospital, Risa, having already awakened, heard the continuous sounds of battle echoing in the sky outside and couldn't help running out.

Shortly after, Zhang Yun sent a telegram to Jin Yishan in Kaifeng, instructing him to split off half of his cavalry, join forces with two rebel leaders of the Taiping Army, and set out to attack the city of Beijing over a thousand miles away.

Looking back, he couldn't help feeling somewhat surprised. To his astonishment, the person calling out to him was none other than Lu Qian, Marshal Lu.

Instantly, the edge of the entire marshland became a scene of lively commotion... In stark contrast to the decisive actions of Elder Fang, the group of old men stood on the bank, utterly at a loss as to whether to advance or retreat.

Wu Song and Hu San niang maneuvered their wooden raft close to the cliff, stopping beneath a large tree, and prepared to go ashore to climb up the cliff face.

"No, it's not like that. This is my own will; I don't know why the voice inside my heart has completely vanished," Ji Wang said.

Although it fell short of the original at the box office, it was by no means inferior in terms of word-of-mouth acclaim, and even showed a subtle tendency to overshadow it.

No matter how fast it accelerated, the Painted Halberd of Tuoba always clung to him like a shadow. The constantly shifting celestial phenomena around them were the manifestation of the laws of the universe, and at this moment, they also became shackles restraining Ying Zhi.

"There are still hidden passages left!" Maintaining his stance and exerting his full strength, Elder Ku took a moment to glance sideways, looking slightly surprised.

The large lawn Xiao Zixuan mentioned must be this place! Because no one tended to it, it was overgrown with lush wild grass about knee-high. If it were rice, it would probably be ready for harvest in a little while.

"You're overthinking it," Song Ruying gritted her teeth and hummed, her anxious mood slowly calming down.

The Blue Dragon, however, refused to listen; he was furious. He never expected that after taking a nap, a fellow like this would pop out and even want to act as his elder brother. As an ancient member of the demon race, he could not tolerate this under any circumstances, so he completely turned a deaf ear to the words of the round-collared man.

At that moment, Ling Yu could no longer suppress the shock in his heart and blurted out, "Just now, that junior brother named Qian Feng?", his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Well, that person who threw the punches—aren't they afraid of being retaliated against by the other party?" Having not heard the beauty state her name from beginning to end, Song Ruying felt somewhat concerned for him.

Xue Yitong returned to her room, lay down on her bed, and stared at the fan spinning continuously on the ceiling. Her eyelids suddenly felt exceptionally heavy, and she felt an intense urge to sleep.

To his surprise, however, after the spatial ring was swallowed, it did not enter his stomach; instead, it came to rest beside his demon core, floating quietly.

"Let me go..." She wriggled her body uneasily, but was no match for his formidable strength.

"Tsk tsk, a senior brother is indeed a senior brother; even under such circumstances, he is still able to restrain himself," Chen Yue said, his smile unceasing.

"Milord?" Xiao Luoluo was anxious for a reply, but Xu Qiuyan did not give her the opportunity, ordering his men to drag her out.

She directly kicked Shentu in the stomach, causing him to drop to his knees clutching his abdomen with both hands, vomiting blood gushing mouthful after mouthful.

Ye Miao hurriedly asked what flavor she wanted, then swiftly prepared a bowl of cold noodles and served it to the young woman.

Unexpectedly, however, Tianlun rejected the invitation to cooperate, deciding to protect their shipment alone. This was somewhat ungrateful and foolish, earning them harsh mockery from others—derision that reached its peak when Tianlun's newly dispatched cargo was rejected and returned for the third time.
