Volume 1, Chapter 45: You don't even need to bait the hook to catch you

Nie Xingyan possessed a gorgeous and striking appearance; when she gazed at someone intently, a detached and aloof aura would naturally emanate from her. Yet when she smiled, her eyes were bright and captivating, adding a touch of gentle warmth. The more one looked at her, the more alluring she became.

"It seems... she really is a bit different, after all." Joachim's words indirectly answered a previous question of Heliger's; it appeared that Kea indeed was not a normal human being.

Caught off guard, Big Furry took a tumble, landing flat on its back with all four paws in the air. It wanted to throw a tantrum, but upon meeting Qiuyue's smiling face, it shivered involuntarily.

She did not carry the heavy responsibilities that Qingxuan Le bore; if pushed to the absolute limit, she would leave this place without a moment's hesitation.

Knowing that he was gravely ill and had little time left, Wonas felt a massive boulder lift from his chest.

As for that creature, the Water Demon Beast, Shi Jieren had already relayed Fang Ze's idea to Wang Cheng, expressing his willingness to lease the Water Demon Beast to the state and boasting of his ability to make the beast obediently follow orders and stay put in any designated location.

Christmas was one of the rare holidays Leon actually got to rest, and he was currently accompanying Sophia, who was nine months pregnant, to soak up the sun.

While speaking, he frantically winked at Renaud, signaling him to be a bit more tactful, secure the military aid first before trying to persuade the United States to enter the war, and avoid scaring them off to the point where they wouldn't even get the weapons.

With so many auspicious omens, calculated at a scale of one hundred thousand, if they could converge to form a Yuandou jade vein, the Heaven-Bestowing Sect would already have surpassed the calculations of the Heavenly Dao.

How does the taste of shit suit you! Kimura Kazuma, I think you'd better go back to your Yangquan! Lion Crag Mountain is not a place where you can just run wild.

Zhang Zhen looked coldly at Meng Luo. Although Meng Luo's sudden acquisition of a mecha came as a bit of a surprise, he had the numbers advantage and had no reason to fear Meng Luo.

"Oh my, this old servant has heard—heard that some people within the court are also plotting and conspiring to have Zhang Jing reinstated. I don't know whether they guessed His Majesty's intentions or if it's for some other reason, but they just haven't launched it yet out of respect for the Empress's face," Feng Pao said impatiently, breaking another major news story.

Ye Kai was momentarily stunned. No wonder this Luoshi insisted on having his family pay up; it turned out that Li Dong and Luoshi knew each other, and judging by how Luoshi stood up for Li Dong, one could tell their relationship was out of the ordinary.

The group of life's winners raised their glasses for a hearty toast, while casually passing judgment and making sweeping remarks about the stream of schoolmates and alumni arriving one after another. There was a grand air of passing judgment on the world, as if the few of them had already reached the finish line on the long racetrack of life, enjoying the fruits of success that others could hardly achieve in ten lifetimes, and were already qualified to look down upon all living beings with arrogance.

"Forget it, let's go." The Twin Butterflies knew they no longer had a chance. Though those obsession beads were a pity, they simply had no opportunity to get them.

Though Zhou Ren said this on the surface, he knew very well in his heart that if Hang Yu was merely a wolf cub trying to bite a few pieces of meat off them, those foreign corporate behemoths were outright tigers, intent on swallowing them whole.

The commotion Chen Kong created in mid-air was witnessed by those around him. Seeing Chen Kong instantly wipe out so many powerful experts with a single move, the surrounding people were all startled.

However, before Wang Fan could finish speaking, Wang Kai swung his palm, violently smacking his head to the left, causing his newly healed face to rupture all over again.

Right at this moment, Chu Jiangyuan also took out a glowing bead from his storage pouch, emitting a translucent brilliance.

Jiang Li and Qian Zhi'an were truly brimming with motivation, both eager to finish their meal and head straight back to study. With a whole year, there was definitely a chance to get into a top-tier university.

Back then, other companions saw them playing together and even mocked him, saying he was a monster, and that only fools would play with a monster! They even threw sand at him and hurled insults.
