Chapter 30: Isn't Me Kissing You Just a Manner of Speaking?

Seeing the ball roll straight into the hole, Xu Ran was both shocked and delighted. In her excitement, she momentarily forgot about Lou Xizhou standing behind her, turned, and smiled at Chairman Gao: "Chairman Gao, this is the first time I've ever made a shot like that!"

Chairman Gao was well aware of the young man's intentions. Although Lou Xizhou was a master at business, he was just like any other man when it came to matters of the heart—only far more dazzling. After all, with his wealth, looks, and talent, what girl wouldn't be drawn to him? Still, he surprisingly showed no interest in a match of equal status.

"This... it's not that I don't know, but nothing is absolute. People like you and Sister Ruonan are both academically gifted and truly capable, aren't you?" Gou Haowen, still uneasy, said even after hearing Lin Feng's words.

Fortunately, my university major was automotive repair, so I have a fair understanding of many things regarding cars. I can even make car doors open on their own—though, of course, that only works on models with lower security ratings. I haven't tried it on an armored vehicle like this one yet.

The man's eyes were filled with deep resentment as he died; he probably never dreamed that his life would end in such a manner.

Geng Zhizhong also recognized the Qingyuan Pill. He had once sought one out himself and managed to obtain one, so he was well aware of its efficacy. He never expected his master to be so generous as to hand out two of them at once.

A blue lotus bloomed in the sky, and a faint, soothing fragrance seemed to permeate the air, as if it could cleanse the soul.

A dozen bullets suddenly rained down on Han Hao, flying like a swarm of locusts. Just as the gathered moguls sighed in pity that such a heroic youth was about to be riddled with gunfire, the unexpected happened.

A magnificent, towering gate of light appeared, adorned with countless vibrant flower petals. Celestial chants rang out, and the clouds were dyed in gold. Inside the gate, vague silhouettes appeared, resembling angels descending.

"I have no relationship with her whatsoever; it's all just wishful thinking on her part," Sheng Xiao said, anxious to explain for fear that she might misunderstand.

Posting a response at this time and letting friends know would prompt everyone to share it, which would help boost the trending topic.

An Xiangqing agreed with a nod: "An Naile, take me back." Before An Naile could respond, An Xiangqing had already pulled her away.

Qingliu remained his usual detached and indifferent self. Even when they were nearly face-to-face, he looked at him with a cold, unchanging expression.

"Say, classmate Touka Kirishima, may I call you Touka from now on? That way, I won't get you mixed up with your younger brother." As Saionji introduced the functions of each building, he kept an eye on the expressions of Cheng Huiyuan and the others, striving to strike up a conversation to keep them from feeling awkward.

"A-Dai": Spending a few days in pleasure... that phrase is just something else. Is Boss Qin really not afraid of being beaten to death by everyone?

A dull pain persisted. Even though she was capable and trustworthy, she couldn't just let the matter of being struck in the head slide. Merit must be rewarded, and faults must be punished. However, she was feeling a bit dizzy and couldn't be bothered to settle accounts with her just yet.

Yi Sitong, however, noticed that when the supplies were hijacked, Ji Hongxiu showed no signs of dissatisfaction—in fact, she seemed rather excited, which left him speechless.

The two looked at each other and laughed for a moment, but then the atmosphere shifted. Zhao Ke'er saw Qin Feng slowly leaning in. Even if she had never eaten pork, she had certainly seen pigs run.

"Heh, not bad." The hooded assassin chuckled, stopping the dagger he had been spinning and gripping it in a reverse hold against his wrist.

"Get out of here! Do you all think I’m so old that you dare to disobey my orders? You know to stay in the hospital at a time like this? You two, get him here for me!" Song Lie scolded them again before issuing his command.

With such powerful firepower, destroying the 5S car repair shop they were hiding in would be child's play.

It was a pity that this palm strike from Chu Dabao, delivered with eighty percent of his strength—comparable to a full-force blow from three days ago—only caused Chu He’s body to tremble slightly, failing to push him back even half a step.
