Chapter 47: The Strange Zhou Linyao
"All right, before the sun gets too high, let's go over today's assignments."
Jiang Liufang, the leader of the Third Production Team at Red Star Farm, arrived at today's destination and clapped his hands to signal all the educated youths to pay attention.
Zhou Yaohua, who had been distracted all morning, was startled. Rushing to collect her wits, she tried to quietly shift her gaze away from Mu Wangwan.
Yet, no sooner had she moved than Mu Wangwan suddenly tilted her head, and their clear gazes collided instantly.
Chu Nanxiang's remark was undoubtedly a covert jab, mocking Xiao Heng for failing to keep his own wife in check, which utterly shattered his dignity.
Catching the alluring aroma of the eggs on the plate, Lin Qingshu, who hadn't eaten a single bite since last night, felt her stomach emit a series of suspicious rumbles.
In Zhao Guoqiao's will, Xia Yingxue was left with a meager two million, a discrepancy that clearly caused a massive sense of disappointment in her heart.
Now, due to the sudden emergence of KFC, on the surface at least, it didn't seem to pose too severe an impact on McDonald's.
Although they hadn't turned back to find the two of them yet, they would discover them sooner or later. After all, they were still within this area and bound to be caught eventually.
Upon seeing this, Fan Jian's bodyguards were scared out of their wits. Taking to their heels, they fled wildly as the terror in their hearts spiked to its absolute peak.
"She has already gone back. By this hour, your Prince has likely escorted her back to the estate." Unfazed by the blade resting against her neck, she continued roasting the chicken.
Qin Kexia wiped away her tears and hailed a taxi. Halfway through the ride, the phone in her pocket began to ring.
"Qin Kexia, sis, I've wrapped up filming!" Tang Hua's bright voice sounded from the other end of the line, chasing away much of the gloom lingering in Qin Kexia's heart.
Faced with Mu Xiaoxiao's mockery, Zhang Ling's lifeless expression finally showed a trace of vitality, and a delicate blush quietly crept up her pretty face.
It was also due to Zhuo Yifan's carelessness; they were standing too close, and moreover, he hadn't expected Qian Qian to pull such a move. The snowball struck him square on the bridge of his nose, bursting apart with a loud *thud* and splattering snow all over his hair and face.
"In that case... I will be burned to death." Enduring the excruciating pain of her meridians being scorched, Zique managed a faint smile toward Xiaoluo, whose breathing instantly grew heavy and ragged.
The archaeological team brought in water pumps, operating them day and night until the water inside the ancient tomb was finally drained, allowing the construction crew to resume excavation. This time, after digging for more than two months and going down over twenty meters, they finally uncovered rows of large stone slabs beneath. Having previously lost hope, everyone instantly regained their vigor upon seeing the neat stone slabs.
Exiting through the back door while keeping her head bowed, she listened as the eunuch's shrill voice recited various matters of etiquette, instructing that once the sedan chair was lifted, it must not stop anywhere along the way. Upon arriving at the imperial palace, she was to go straight to her own quarters and stay inside, while her accompanying maidservant was not allowed to enter and had to keep watch outside.
What are you even thinking? What isn't meant to be yours will never become yours no matter how hard you try, so you'd better give up on this delusion! Didn't you always say that finding a good destination for her was your lifelong pursuit? Now that she can truly be with Senior Brother Li, shouldn't you, as her junior brother, be happy for her and offer her your blessings?
What exactly is a restriction? Strictly speaking, restrictions and formation arrays share the same underlying principles. Simply put, a formation array requires external magical treasures and props to activate, whereas a restriction relies solely on a cultivator's spiritual energy. In terms of effect, restrictions can achieve the exact same functions as formation arrays, such as shielding others from prying eyes.
"What is there to hesitate about? Since you've already made up your mind, there's nothing more to say," Zique said without hesitation, readily agreeing to Xiaoluo's proposal to cooperate with Yangji.
"Are you alright?" Seeing him suddenly smile despite having just winced in pain, An Luochu found it utterly baffling.
Several musicians beside the Sword Bell Demon held ancient qins and plucked away blindly at the air, yet they still failed to flush out Gu Yu Sui Feng.
