27. An Affair

Beyond bearing two children for Shen Peichuan, the greatest success of Sang Yu’s life was the establishment of the Dream Foundation, which brought her own aspirations to fruition.

Lu Yifan was aware of the events unfolding here. Upon receiving the call from the police, he remained outwardly calm, though he sighed inwardly. In the end, He Li was still soft-hearted. Yet, such a person was worth associating with; if he had truly pushed He Jia to his doom, that would have been the truly frightening thing.

At the time, he had also considered trying to win favor with Zong Jinghao, but in that fleeting moment, Lin Xinyan had already lunged forward.

It could be a simple breakfast to fill one’s stomach in the morning, or a late-night snack sufficient to stave off hunger.

With a 5% bonus to his health points, he gained over twenty points, providing an extra layer of security for his survival.

Among the Belgian players he knew well, however, Vincent Kompany remained the one Yun Sheng was closest to.

The video conference involved many participants; every regional inspection office in the major grain-producing areas had joined the meeting.

"I understand that," Wen Rensheng nodded. "Because it gives more people a chance, filtering out true geniuses instead of letting mediocrities occupy those positions indefinitely."

All of Dongfang Yun’er’s apothecaries shared a hobby: a love for high-grade spiritual herbs. To them, these were far more precious than gold or jewelry.

The group headed straight to Lin Yunzhi’s office. After learning about the basic symptoms, Lin Yunzhi’s years of clinical experience gave her a rough idea of the situation.

In contrast, over on the Max team, the top-laner Su Yuqi and the mid-laner Lin Nan were completely at ease. With no fear of harassment from their opponents, they found a quiet corner to farm in peace. Though they didn't continue to rack up kills, their equipment improved by leaps and bounds.

"You all wait here; I’ll go take a look. If it isn't a mutant zombie, we’ll just fight our way through," Zhang Zhao said. Every type of mutant zombie was a killer of men, and every one of them was a formidable beast. Without cover, encountering a mutant zombie in the open could cost them their lives.

Of course, it was precisely because of this trait that the Spear of Vengeance possessed enough flexibility in both offense and defense, greatly enhancing her survivability.

If it had been Yin Ruojun who smashed his car window, Xing Kui would not have been surprised in the slightest. He gently closed the back door and turned to head for the driver’s seat.

Still, this was already quite strong; it could easily withstand strikes from iron bars or kitchen knives.

Since he had come all this way, there was no reason not to visit. Ye Han was here to experience the folk customs of Chiyun City, and the gambling den was an essential stop.

"Haha, Qi Biao, you always boast of your great strength, but I suspect you can't even move this young master’s weapon," the axe-wielding soldier said, secretly amused by Qi Biao’s incredulous expression, and provoked him with a taunt.

Han You didn't bother with support this time; he simply played as a jungler. From the start, he stirred up chaos across all lanes, stubbornly buffing his teammates in the top and mid lanes until they were so well-fed and strong that their opponents had to steer clear of them.

Ye Tan always had many strange things in his possession. For instance, seeing so many people rushing toward him, one would expect him to be gripping a long blade or a spear—so what was he doing holding a green bamboo stalk?

As soon as Li Qiu finished speaking, a scattering of applause broke out in the theater. Then, like a single spark starting a prairie fire, the earth-shaking applause swept through the entire Jamsil Arena.

Lu Chen was speechless. Was this Night-Walking Wolf doing this on purpose? Specifically leaving wounds in such suggestive places?

"I'm sorry, sir, your bank account has been frozen. My apologies!" The ticket seller glanced at Field with a strange look before handing back his identification and bank card.

Although their intelligence was far higher than that of ordinary zombies, they were still incapable of making a decision like fleeing when faced with such a situation.

Dwayne Wayne’s grandfather, the previous head of the Hasebein family, was a powerful spatial sorcerer. The "Gate of All Prisons" card had cost him decades of effort to create. If Dwayne hadn't been the most gifted member of the Hasebein family, this card would likely never have been entrusted to him.

"I know this probably won't work, but my master truly detests outsiders. Usually, no one from the outside dares to step into the courtyard, and the master always speaks to them with a cold face." Sasha looked worried, her eyes lingering on Roben.

"Brother must sing beautifully. Why don't you sing one for us?" Kang Min-kyung stared at Li Qiu with her sparkling eyes, her expectant gaze enough to make anyone’s heart melt.

"To kill me, just relying on you? I’m afraid you’re still far from it," the Green Fox sneered with disdain upon hearing this.

"It’s rare to see you so polite!" The lines around the Madman’s mouth seemed stiff as he forced a grimace that barely passed for a smile.

The opponent was a young man of average height, just over 1.7 meters. However, his piercing, luminous eyes and the hard, almost numb expression on his face made it clear that this youth was no weakling untested in battle.

"It is precisely because it is important that I am so cautious. I am an alchemist; no one has a greater right to speak on these matters than I do!" Rochett naturally knew that his father was referring to the business deal he had been fixated on recently.

The storm, which had been spinning at high speed with massive clouds and moisture, vanished without a trace, leaving them stunned. At the same time, a burning fervor ignited in the hearts of many.

Before Ye Chen could speak, Li Xin grabbed Wang Yumin by the collar and pinned him against the glass wall of the waiting hall.

An Botian’s fierce eyes glared, and the sea of blood and corpses behind him seemed to surge again. Even Guo Chuanzong and She Yi showed expressions of shock at the mention of the "one-in-a-thousand" feat.

Ye Fei opened his mouth and uttered a sentence full of profound philosophy, leaving Dan Tai Zijin bewildered, unable to grasp the deep meaning behind it for a long time.

Li Daoran attempted to calculate and trace the source, but found nothing. This did not make him afraid, but it gave him a clear awareness of the impending crisis.
