Chapter Ninety-Four: Cail, We Will Always Stand Behind You!

Cai’er said coldly, “An outsider? It was the very outsider you look down on who acted without hesitation when I was in danger, even standing in front of me and shielding me with his own body.”

“What have any of you ever done for me?”

“In all my memories, there was only cultivation... The chill left me unable to move, and I lay there for more than two years. Where were you then? Don’t say you were fighting for the Holy Alliance. I don’t understand such grand ideals. When I wanted to give up my life and leave this world...”

Hao Nan blinked. Only after turning it over in his mind did he remember that he had not actually intended to buy that thing at all. To be honest, the Golden Bracken Fern with Gold Veins had nothing to do with him; it was only that the cat emperor in front of him needed it desperately.

Having seen through the scheme, Ling Xiao looked at her rather awkwardly, though inwardly he was delighted. In the past he had been her teacher and was always being scolded by her, made to stand, and the like. Now she was the one teasing him first. Was this the beginning of her thaw?

At first I thought I would be the one drinking, but the odds were just strange. Added together, they turned out to be exactly the number I had called, so Ma Qin had to drink instead.

The experiment he asked Qiao Xuehai to conduct could not reveal the other party’s exact identity, but with the current level of DNA testing, it could determine gender, age, blood type, and other information, which would be of great help to his follow-up investigation.

At the time, Scarf Girl asked me in detail about the struggle with Da Long. She knew Da Long too, after all, since Da Long was close to Black Tall Man, and she also knew Da Long had once had people beat me up in the cafeteria. However, Scarf Girl did not know that I had already planned in the afternoon to beat Da Long, and kept asking whether I would be beaten again.

On the platform, the Three Elders of the Heavenly Palace were basking leisurely in the sun when they suddenly saw the Emperor Lord appear, leading a beautiful young woman by the hand. Their wrinkled faces twisted together in astonishment, and their bald mouths gaped wide open.

Uchiha Madara heard Estelle call out to him, and the motion of his mouth came to a stop; the mellow sound of the harmonica also faded away.

“What!!!” As soon as those words were spoken, everyone gaped in shock. This was far more tempting than any exchange reward—the chance to return to reality. That was the goal everyone was striving for. Even the gloomy Jiang Lan immediately rushed over, clutching the stove.

How ironic it was: the Indian girl was open and uninhibited, while the Eastern man was shy and restrained, all bashfulness and hesitation. In that moment, their genders seemed to have been reversed.

The man who had been standing nearby lowered his head and listened to the exchange between the two. Even his body could not help but shiver, and he remained motionless, fearing that if he displeased them, they might settle matters by taking him down as well, which would hardly be worth the loss.

He meant nothing else by it. It was only because Aunt Wu had no man in the house to help.

Hearing Yan Yi’s refusal, Yu Xian was momentarily stunned, then lifted her head and met Yan Yi’s eyes.

Yet even in the face of Yan Yi’s indifference and refusal, Yu Xian did not suffer the slightest setback; instead, she seemed to grow all the more determined the more she was rebuffed.

If they really had been locked in a place without water or food, then they would likely already have missed the best time for rescue. By the time we found them again, they might well have become nothing but two dried corpses.

Over these past few months, I too had gone through many things and become much more composed. I was no longer the least bit panicked.

When Wu Xiang said those words, he sounded rather self-mocking. In truth, he really did look down on himself somewhat.

In fact, only Ruan Jingfeng could truly understand just how extraordinary Qin Feng’s talent for acting really was.

Zhang Shuai, the floor manager on the first level, looked extremely awkward. Although he had just been very respectful toward Young Master Li...

Seeing no more sound from the room, Gu Chaoxi went downstairs in disappointment and instructed the cooks to make some pastries, so there would be something for Qin Jiu to eat if he grew hungry.

If she continued being so mischievous, he could not guarantee that, before they got back to that room just now, he would still be able to resist the fire within him and refrain from taking her down right there in the corridor.
