Chapter 45 Stealing a Car

Liu Yongming threw back his head and laughed. “Stop trying to scare me with the police! That bitch Lin Qin picked a fight with me first! She deserves to die!”

The captain frowned deeply, utterly perplexed. “No... What does Lin Qin picking a fight with you have to do with Lin Qingxiang? You destroyed his vegetable plot, and you still think you’re in the right?”

Liu Yongming cast a sinister gaze at the people before him. “Quit trying to fool me! This vegetable plot belongs to Lin Qin’s family!”

The captain nodded repeatedly. “You’re right. This plot of land does belong to Lin Yi, but—”

“You...” Feng Xifan was rendered speechless by Zheng Kezang’s retort, and a flash of murderous intent flickered deep in his eyes.

Like ancient jade unearthed from the ground, its patina may take the form of a white, misty water stain, a yellow earth stain, a black cinnabar stain, a green copper stain, or a dark purplish-black corpse stain.

Only after Zhang Wu saw Yi Pingping did he suddenly understand. No wonder Liang Fei had seemed so confident earlier—it turned out he had entrusted the matter to Yi Pingping.

While other families set off firecrackers and gathered together, he could only spend the holiday curled up beside some dumpster in the city or inside a makeshift shack he had built himself.

To attend tonight’s banquet, Catherine had dressed with exceptional elegance. A delicate layer of makeup softened her radiant face, her bright eyes gleamed like blue sapphires, and the vivid lipstick on her red lips made her look both beautiful and sensual.

But in the next instant, Gu Xiao froze. It was a typical monk’s room, and an old man was seated cross-legged inside, facing them.

Ahead lay a lush, dense forest. Although there was plenty of light overhead, it was almost entirely screened by the leaves, leaving the woods somewhat dim.

Just as Zheng Zhiwei was at a loss for what to do, he suddenly saw Huang Qiang arriving with several men. Overjoyed, he hurried forward to greet them.

If Ximen Kuang had been trapped on the second or third level, they would not have needed to waste their strength at all.

Then Zhong Liang’s fierce, heavy punch was instantly annihilated and shattered beneath Hellfire’s kick.

The man’s words sent Chen’s mother rushing upstairs. She soon came back down with a sheet of paper, found a calculator in the living room, and began working through the figures. Moments later, she sank pale-faced onto the floor.

“You!” Hearing Dongfang Yi make excuses, Sarah ground her teeth and snapped, “Every time I call you, you’re either meeting clients or too busy! Are you really busier than your big brother? Hmph! Fine, don’t come if you don’t want to. Raising a son like you was a complete waste! Hmph!”

With that, Sarah immediately hung up.

“No need, Yiyi. Even if you told the truth, no one would believe you,” Dongfang Yi said with a smile.

“Did you hear me clearly?” Zhao Baoyi asked. Yue Longtian had merely acknowledged her without promising to do what she asked, and she still felt uneasy.

Although Yue Longtian did not particularly care for the artificial conventions of the entertainment industry, the encouragement from Donnie Yen and Andy Lau had made him reluctantly willing to accept them.

In truth, Di Baobao, whom everyone thought was asleep, was tossing and turning restlessly in bed. She had only managed to sleep for a short while before, just as she had countless times in recent days, dreaming once more of that face she loved yet was forced to give up.

Xie Hongnian had no other choice. What these people were doing now was merely a gesture, a way of saying: I know this person, so show him some respect.

When she heard that Lili had carried things out according to their prior arrangement, she immediately thought of the result.

“Whom the Fifth Prince chooses to favor is not something I can decide. Perhaps Mo Liang truly does know how to please His Highness.” Tang Huawan lowered her long lashes. Her beautiful eyes were clear and luminous, yet the emotions hidden within them were impossible to read. Her tone was calm and even, revealing nothing of what she was thinking. If anything, she seemed inclined to take it all in stride.

The shouts shook the heavens, and murderous intent swept toward them. Shen Yi felt as though he were facing a formidable enemy—among them was actually a cultivator who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

She was drenched in sweat and blood from head to toe. Drops of blood kept falling from her body, staining the stone steps red.

Looking at the countless comments, Wu Fan felt a headache coming on. He had never imagined that his earlier actions would have such an effect. One wrong move, and the whole situation might backfire.
