25 Birthday Banquet

"Search under the seats in every carriage," Wei Renwu said calmly. "The subway is brightly lit in every corner; that is the only place where things can be hidden."

It was at the end of the twenty-eighth year when the Liuxia Palace suddenly announced the joyous news that Consort Hui was pregnant. Ganlu was born in the middle of the twenty-ninth year, which was considered the biggest event in the inner palace that year.

If Yan Shun officially raised the banner of rebellion, it was certain that the British and French would make contact with him in advance. At this point, Yan Shun's attitude would be crucial. If he did not satisfy the demands of the British and French, they would obstruct him or even assist the Qing government in suppressing his uprising.

Immediately, someone instinctively took out their phone from their pocket and searched for "Micro-Ant" on Baidu. Looking at the photo on Baidu Baike and then at Wang Yue, they were stunned.

"Liam, James has a speech at Parliament today. I thought you would go. Have you and James been having any problems lately?" J.P. Morgan never hid anything from Li Mu; he was a very frank man who never beat around the bush.

Leng Yifeng had been waiting downstairs for a long time. Fu An was in the driver's seat, and Bolt was in the passenger seat. Leng Yifeng stepped to the back to open the door for Ye Chenmeng.

"Mao Leyan of the Mao family!" Mao Leyan said. Back in the modern era, she had heard that Long Yinle had gone missing, and later someone named Long Jing'er took over the law firm and became the head of the family. She wondered if the Long Yinle before her was the one who had gone missing from the Long family.

Su Ruhui was overjoyed, but Zhou Yi'er hesitated before reacting. She cast a secret glance at Gu Liancheng, and the two hurriedly took their leave.

This was also normal. Although Wang Feibai was a relatively successful Chinese immigrant, he still had the limitations of his era, so he certainly did not understand the value of certain new things as well as Li Mu did.

This month had been very unsettling. It was mainly because things were chaotic over at Consort Mei's. She was only a month away from giving birth and was adamant about not seeing Zhao Zhenyu. Zhao Zhenyu knew she was carrying his child, and his feelings were complicated. He did not want to see her either; the relationship between them was like frozen ice, impossible to reconcile.

It was easy to ask for leave from school. After submitting my medical records, the school granted me a month of leave. Within this month, even if I were not on campus, my credits would not be deducted.

At this moment, Gu Yuexi wished he could strangle Du Luo, who was flashing a grin of white teeth at him, but since Du Luo existed only on the screen, there was nothing he could do.

Waking up, I found it was already dawn. An Nianchu did not know when she had fallen asleep, but looking at the empty room, she suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion. This was the first time in a while that she had opened her eyes and not seen Qin Muchen.

The Maya predicted that for one to return to their original world, only ten Earthlings could exist in this world.

"Young Master Yun will be here any minute. Does everyone remember what I told you?" the young man asked.

Nowadays, Yu Rongguang had become the force left behind by Wang Bo to guard Hasar City. Two years had passed, and Yu Rongguang had climbed from a mid-level military position to a high-level one. He had come here today at the request of Tian Lulu to ask about the situation of Wang Furen.

Although he had received meticulous care from Bai Yan, it was a miracle that Qiu Xuan's injuries had healed seventy or eighty percent in a month. This was still due to Qiu Xuan's physique being extraordinary; in Bai Yan's opinion, an ordinary person would definitely not have recovered from such injuries in a year or six months.

Besides, they were only meeting Xia Leng for the first time; how could he know that his grandfather had been injured twenty years ago?

"Oh, what a rare sight. I forgot to buy you a green hat to give you as a gift," the Old Man with the White Beard said, shaking his head with regret.

"I took her out during the National Day holiday. Is there a problem? Do I need to report this to you?" Zhou Kai glanced at me.

"An eighteen-year-old Grandmaster! What immense fortune the Lin family must have had to befriend such a young hero!" Xiong Kuncheng remarked with genuine emotion.

Clearly, he wanted to see this guy, who was respected by Bartos, fall on his rear end, just to see if he could still maintain his haughty attitude.

There was nothing on his body. The pale, almost ethereal hand that had been drifting across his chest just moments ago had now vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared at all.

After a soul-stirring exchange, Lin Hao and Chie Yoshizawa finally calmed down and lay in bed, embracing each other.

The terrifying energy impact formed a hurricane, causing the entire courtyard to creak and rattle.

"Good. Now that you understand, let me tell you about our Xuan Sect—or rather, about you," Wuming said, exhaling in relief.

"Master, have you already attained spiritual consciousness?" Huang Youshu naturally thought of what the Second Elder had guessed.

And so, the partner set the bowl of ramen aside, planning to finish it after completing the work.

"Bang!" Yanyun's golden greatsword swung horizontally, swatting a dozen militiamen to the side.

After the first glass of wine, the couple toasted the two elders twice more. The mother-in-law's cooking was delicious, and Lu Fanhong ate quite a bit.

The dark wizard stretched out a withered, bony arm, attempting to grab Yue Xuan's fish tail, but the moment he touched it, all the images vanished.

Nanny Yu looked ashen. The thing she had worried about every day had finally happened. Even if Lu Youzhen were willing to support her for nothing, she would no longer have her position. In the past, besides the people in the main courtyard, who didn't show her a measure of respect? Now, she had nothing left.
