Volume 1, Chapter 38: The Trap

Lin Yao looked at him with an innocent expression, her exquisite face filled with confusion, as if she had no idea what he was talking about. In truth, how could she not know? The girl was pretending—deliberately so. However, he did not continue to watch; if he did, in this situation of a man and a woman alone, he feared he might truly find it difficult to restrain himself. Yet, recalling how she had nervously clung to his back just moments before, the sensation he felt left him lost in thought. Although it was not the first time, each experience brought a different feeling.

"With that lecherous look on your face, you must be thinking of something filthy!" Lin Yao, standing to the side, immediately raised her head...

Clearing my throat awkwardly, I smiled and asked, "In what way do you think I resemble your lover?" As I spoke, I spun around in place.

"Once the Marquis promoted to a third-rate warrior, he was no longer considered a common soldier," Wu Yong added, cupping his hands in a salute.

Returning home, Huang Jun continued to study his formations, while Huang Yan picked up the jade fragments to feel them closely.

After working through the night at home, Zhang Ruofeng finished creating eleven albums and let Tang Tian handle the subsequent tasks.

Amy kept patting Arklas on his sturdy shoulder, urging him on. The giant finally came to his senses and hurried to catch up.

Li Song and David were not exactly good men either; one was a naturally repressed playboy, and the other a wild, unrestrained foreigner.

Seeing Chu He come up with such a sinister scheme, Du Shang, Zhu Peng, and the others looked at him with great surprise.

He rushed forward, and while Old Wei stood dumbfounded at the core, he wrapped his arms around the "eye" as if hugging a giant ball.

"Grandfather!" It was not the first time the older brother had heard that tone from his grandfather, yet he was still moved by the sorrow within it and could not help but call out.

"Huff... huff..." The humanoid creature panted, stroking its body, recalling the scene just moments before, and whispered in its heart that it had been lucky.

Hearing this, I stared blankly at my left arm. The bandage previously wrapped around it was waterproof and breathable. I had followed the young master's instructions and never removed it, so I had never even seen what the wound looked like.

The Marquis of Anyuan sat up straight. "Is this true?" Was that girl not always incredibly mischievous?

However, this posed no great problem for the Lin family. If the weather turned colder, they would simply turn on the central air conditioning. In addition to solar power, this villa was equipped with diesel generators, and Lin Feng had the foresight to prepare plenty of supplies to last them through the winter.

The news brought by Luo Yang was too shocking and unexpected for Duanmu Yuhua. At this moment, he could no longer care that Luo Yang had taken Lei Li away behind his back; his mind was entirely consumed by the fact that Jun Qian was pregnant.

Emperor Yongxian watched her for a long time, then suddenly shook his head and laughed softly. Not a word of truth! Yet, he could find no reason to refute her.

If someone gave him a chance, whether to die or to become incredibly wealthy, Li Fan would choose wealth without a moment's hesitation.

"Shall we get something to eat in a bit, and then go check on your home?" Yun Xi asked, looking at Yao Yun for his opinion.

Seeing this, Murong Ruo nodded in approval, smiled at the head eunuch, and continued reading the memorials.

Lu Yunzheng had spoken this way hoping to cheer Qiao Nuo up, but he had not expected that upon hearing his words, Qiao Nuo would nearly drop her chopsticks on the floor.

How things had reached this point, she was a bit dizzy, but regardless, since she was willing to marry him and he was willing to marry her, there was no problem at all.

Mo Tian was now breaking out in a cold sweat. He had not expected Mo Yun, in such a life form, to be so terrifying; he could simply be called his greatest natural enemy.

Just look at the situation of the Americans in Iraq; the Americans were so powerful that they almost destroyed the country, yet did the Iraqi people surrender?

【Ghost Dream Cliff】 is a place for punishing disciples who have committed grave mistakes; its harsh environment makes it a place of supreme suffering.

One could guess what was happening with their toes, but Wang Chen needed to stabilize the Emperor for now, so he changed his clothes and followed Lin Yuantu into the palace.

After seeing the corresponding people, Su Chen nodded and looked at Chen Xu and Xiao Yi. Seeing both of them insert their nameplates into the stone tablet, which revealed their respective opponents, the three of them sighed in relief.

Due to the rising popularity of the Jin Yue Studio under the influence of Jiang Yuezhe, the number of orders kept increasing, and the general manager of the pleating factory agreed to lower prices, though the specific details required a face-to-face meeting.

"How would I know? The rating for this mission was done by the Academy's Intelligence Division. They decide whatever they want, so how would I know what this mission is about?" Shen Yunhe, also unable to understand why Situ Ye would ask him this, replied in confusion.

His gaze swept lightly between Chen Siqing and Gu Xinrui, but Gu Xinrui avoided his eyes the entire time.

They were criminal suspects—was there any need for this? But he went down to carry out Wang Jun's orders anyway. What he didn't know was that what Wang Jun had seen during his investigation was a sight beyond belief.

The bright moon spilled its radiance across the ground, making the plum blossoms outside the house appear even more beautiful in the moonlight. Luo Jun stepped lightly out the window and walked into the plum forest, treading on the void, and gently sniffing the elegant fragrance of the blossoms.

Jiang Qian disdained his explanation, or rather, she did not want to say another word to him. Seeing his shirt left on the tatami, she took it away without ceremony, not even bothering to greet him.

Xie Mao left the weapon and artifact processing workshop and returned to the daily supplies workshop, adjusting the production line to automatically produce energy soda, calming honey, skin-healing ointment, and other daily necessities. After finishing, he checked the time; it was already afternoon.

Xie Mao took a step back in front of him; he wanted to find a clean, hard patch of ground to kneel down and kowtow.

Perhaps it had been stifling before, but Xue Tinghua did not take it to heart. Wasn't there a saying that a gentleman takes his revenge even ten years later?

He self-destructed with an expressionless face, smashing his palms until they were dripping with blood. Despite the pain that made him twitch, the man still gritted his teeth tightly, not making a sound.

Seeing the situation worsening, Officer Zhu immediately used his police equipment to warn the other party to keep a safe distance and called for backup.

In an instant, the once quiet and dim night became lively and bright.

As soon as Ye Chu finished speaking, Ye Jiarou became anxious. She wished she could tell everyone present all the bad things Ye Chu had done to her; she did not want everyone to be deceived by Ye Chu.
