Chancellor Cao was a very busy man. After staying at the banquet for a short while, he departed.

After seeing Chancellor Cao off, Cao Xin entrusted Ying’er to Tanchun and sent her to the rear residence to be fed. He then went to have a chat with Tian Feng.

“Haha, Master Yuanhao, have you settled in comfortably here in Xudu?”

“I am, after all, a captive. The general has treated me with great kindness,” Tian Feng replied calmly, cupping his hands.

“Haha, all who come are guests. What talk is there of captives? Master Yuanhao, the Office of the General of Chariots and Cavalry still has…”

Those words were filled with genuine feeling, as though they had come straight from the heart. Countless spectators outside were reminded of their own pasts and beginnings, and many of their eyes glistened with tears.

Because Li Xunhuan could not clear himself of suspicion in the Plum Blossom Thief case, Great Master Xinmei of Shaolin Temple joined forces with Tian Qi, Gongsun Moyun, and the others to escort him to Shaolin Temple.

He did not know why Lord Bao had chosen nighttime, but never mind. It was only a wedding, after all; any time would do. His gaze fell upon that set of bright-red wedding clothes. The color was dazzlingly red—and it was Fei’er’s favorite.

His mother smiled, and the sorrow covering her face slowly faded. The others surged forward and surrounded me. Moved beyond words, I embraced them and savored the joy of reunion.

Yet once one truly began systematic study, one would discover just how many shortcomings one possessed and how much there was still to learn.

“No problem. This pill formula isn’t particularly useful anyway, so there’s no need to treat it as some family heirloom!” Liu Yi said with a laugh.

What was that man called again? Qiu Zheyu, perhaps? It was a nice-sounding name. How had he managed to grow only taller and not wiser?

Then, at around four-thirty, the parents could pick their children up from school and take them home.

But even the Wish Orbs, a weapon governed by causality, had been developed according to the principles of equivalent exchange and the conservation of mass and energy. How could they possibly violate those laws?

A Fei flipped over and was about to spring to his feet, but countless shadows of indistinct clubs came sweeping toward him.

“Is that so? I thought your illness was caused by problems with the accounts receivable of your company, Uncle,” Lu Shuangshuang said, casually taking a seat directly opposite Huo Yuanzhen.

As long as she could stall for time until the medicine Ye Lu had taken wore off, she was confident she could subdue him.

Chu Fei had assumed that his Third Senior Sister was going to tell him how to change his fate. He never expected that, just after he locked the room door—

She gathered her long hair at the back of her head and tied it into a neat, brisk high ponytail, revealing her exquisite and beautiful features.

Even Old Sha’s psychological defenses were broad enough, yet Waldo’s remark nearly drove him to the verge of collapse. His speech became so incoherent that he almost bit his own tongue in two.

Rubbing her eyes, Zhuang Qingqing got up groggily to pour herself a glass of water. Suddenly, the cup in her hand loosened slightly, and the hot water spilled over the back of her hand. She let out a startled cry, then felt a piercing, bone-deep pain shoot through it.

Come to think of it, Huo Ting had said he was going to find me and arrange the interviews that followed. Where was he? And how had I ended up in a suite?

Lin Weize closed the app with lingering satisfaction and finally relaxed. Whatever else might be said, the buzz was more than sufficient—an excellent start. From here, Hybe and Min Hee-jin would naturally continue managing the campaign.

When Lin Weize heard that Kang Haerin was there too, he thought that ever since he had fallen in love, he seemed to have been in much less contact with Kitty. She had, after all, been the one who sparked his initial love of K-pop; it truly would not do to favor one over the other.

When she received no response, Kang Haerin looked at Kim Minji in confusion. Seeing Kim Minji staring fixedly at the space in front of her, she instinctively tugged her bath towel higher.

In the blink of an eye, He Zudao felt a hole punched straight through his chest. He was sent flying more than a dozen meters and landed directly inside the grotto-heaven. After hitting the ground, he rolled twice more, his pain so severe that his vision went black.

At that moment, Chen Yajie, who was pretending to be away on the sofa, naturally knew what Wang Siqi wanted when she saw her coming downstairs.

He Zudao was deeply frustrated. Although he could now analyze the various information contained within the Scarlet Firmament Sword, he was miserably disappointed to discover that whenever he sent his consciousness into it in an attempt to merge with it, the sword did not transform into molten metal and flow into his body as he had imagined. He tried several times, but achieved nothing.
