Chapter 32: The Large Mooncake Order

When Gu Wennuan returned with her basket on her back, she ran into Li Xiaohua, who was carrying a bundle and heading toward her maiden home.

Li Xiaohua had been scolded by her parents-in-law after returning from the fields. Thinking of how Zhou Fei had slapped her in front of so many people, she felt she had no face left to stay, and decided it would be better to spend a few days at her parents' house.

Li Xiaohua had not expected to bump into Gu Wennuan on her way out. Seeing her, she felt a surge of jealousy. Why was Gu Wennuan living a better life than her? Back in the Poplar Brigade, she had clearly been prettier and more capable than her. Why, after marriage...

However, facing everything he revealed, she—long indoctrinated with darkness by the Star Mother—remained utterly unmoved.

She had not expected this fellow to be so attentive; her stomach seemed much more comfortable, and the excruciating pain she had felt before was gone.

Looking at the smudged ink at the signature, "Bamboo..." Rong Qian’s hands trembled slightly. He had cried; he must have been weeping when he wrote this letter. He was so proud—he must have been touched by a deep, hidden pain at that moment.

"Compared to City Lord Jun, I prefer to be addressed as the Crown Princess of Tianyue," Rong Qian glanced at the man opposite her with a faint, detached look, then picked up the teacup on the table and took a light sip.

Right now, Xue Xiaoni’s situation was unclear, Su Qingyi was terrified outside, and Xia Yanbing was inherently suspicious. If she delayed too long, given Su Qingyi’s suspicious nature, she might notice that something was wrong.

"It seems the Feng family is destined for ruin." That cold voice carried not a hint of emotion. The snow-white silk rustled with his movements, stirring up a chill in the air.

As these words left her lips, the private room fell into a sudden silence. Seeing everyone staring at her with expressions of utter shock, she suddenly felt a twinge of insecurity: Could it be that she had forgotten to wash her face?

"But, Your Highness..." Long Shaocheng turned back to look at Mu Jingqi, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

"The reason given is a violation of school rules? Could it be about them hiring Li Mo?" Xi Mulu asked in confusion.

Liu Getao finally arrived safely at the Ermigasha Channel, with Fang Ziran escorting him from the side. Having done this once before, they were familiar with the route; even without a squad leader to guide them, they could navigate the swirling currents.

However, the main dish served to guests at the Hannibal household was a pot of bubbling green soup of unknown composition.

Noticing a flicker of a lucky smile on Manla’s face, Edward’s mind hit a sudden brake.

Edward himself was dressed in such a golden, ornate robe, draped with a purple mantle, looking incredibly eye-catching.

Upon arriving near Feixian City, Qian Ning’er’s presence suddenly vanished. Once a cultivation level reaches the Loose Immortal stage, it is no longer something ordinary cultivators can fathom. If Qian Ning’er did not want to be discovered, absolutely no one could find her! Silently, she entered the Xuanyuan Kingdom of Feixian City and then disappeared without a trace.

Those four Yin soldiers had been refined into the purest icy beads of Yin energy! Qi Yun sensed them briefly; although these beads were bone-chillingly cold, they were a source of pure power that could be put to many wonderful uses in artifact refining or array formation.

After exiting the airport and leaving the automated walkway, Wuji found a large hovering taxi so that everyone could ride together, saving the trouble. Once inside, Wuji discovered the vehicle was fully automated with no human driver, far more advanced than the one on the other side.

If Zhou Jiping’s actions earlier that day—removing the badges of unqualified sentries and dismissing a lazy field platoon leader—had been driven by the instincts of a soldier, then his mind was now capable of making accurate judgments: the current situation was irregular and had to be changed.

Cai Yan wished to keep Han Yan for a little longer, but she could not. In the eyes of the ancients, there were many things in a man's life far more important than his family.

He gently pulled the trigger. I have had so many people press a gun to my forehead like this that I have long since lost the fear I once felt; even now, my expression remained unchanged.
