Chapter 47: Sleeping Together
After that, he began to explain it to Fang Lang. Because Fang Lang was very clever, it took him only a short while to understand the whole thing.
Most of what was written in the articles of association was actually empty talk, at least as far as the current Beiyang Fleet was concerned.
"Yuejun, hand me those clothes in your hand, and I'll wash them for you." I reached out my hand toward Yuejun.
Looking at the Wolf King in the distance, Li Tianfeng said to Nangong Yuewu, "Why is it still here?" His voice was filled with a trace of doubt.
However, Wei Su was unwilling to say much more, and he couldn't push things too far either. After all, it was thanks to her help that he had gotten this far; if Wei Su hadn't been there tonight, the consequences for his family would have been unimaginable.
My Lord, even if you go there now, it will be of no use. Are you perhaps exceptionally skilled in searching magic?!
In a vast and boundless realm of heaven and earth, there seemed to be left only two monotonous colors: crimson and black. Swirling clouds like flurries of cotton swept across the dim firmament, tearing a bloody gash in the sky and dyeing the wings of clouds hanging across the heavens. Beneath the clustered clouds hung a faintly reddish sun. It was already dusk, with the vault of heaven boundless and the universe silent. It felt as though this state had endured for a very, very long time.
"You're fired! Do you understand? I don't want to hear it! Get out right now!" Teach pointed his finger at the door and shouted loudly.
Even Bambietta, standing nearby, felt humiliated. Even if the opponent was a member of the Royal Guard, there was no need to be sent flying in a single exchange.
"You're lying to me, aren't you! You must be lying to me! Since when did we have a matriarch?!" Rain Shadow roared angrily at Wind Shadow.
Fu Luoxuan stared coldly at Gou Yue, his lips parting slightly. Before he could make a sound, Yuchi Yun pulled him back and then likewise cast a cold gaze at Gou Yue standing in the doorway.
"Then why is my body still losing spiritual energy?" Nangong Mo asked. Although it was only a small fraction, she could still feel the spiritual energy within her slowly draining away.
Xijia did not bother to correct that word "grandmother." For her, such a change in address could alter nothing, and he ought to be well aware of that as well.
After hanging up the phone and checking the time displayed on his screen, Qiao Nuan sighed. She prepared to call Su Ziheng first to brief him before discussing the public announcement with Fang Wanhua's side.
The persistently exorbitant spending of government officials must be due to this very logic, right? As long as superiors still hold the power to determine the destiny of their subordinates, it is impossible to halt the subordinates' relentless pursuit of flattery and advancement.
"...You are still the same as before." Nightfall cast a thick, heavy frost over He Zhiyu's face. He gave a low laugh, though it was not a pleasant one, and turning his gaze away to stare down at the icy stream beneath the bridge, he remained motionless.
A mid-level martial artist who had come out of his room for some fresh air flashed a look, and a trace of a figure so swift its details were obscured swept right past his eyes.
Even if she did not know the reason, Qiao Nuan did not care. Having no one to collaborate with had its advantages: while cooperative actors had to coordinate with each other, they also inevitably competed to outshine one another's brilliance in subtle ways. Besides, she had confidence in her own acting abilities, and having no one to steal her thunder was even better.
Lin Ying squatted before the volcanic crater and grinned, a row of white teeth gleaming under the bright moonlight with a rather eerie sensation.
"Madam, why don't you step back and wait for me outside the bat cave? The moment I find Princess Xiangxiang, I will rescue her immediately. How about that?" Lin Tian frowned secretly, hesitating to make a move.
The people on the screen were playing and laughing joyfully, yet the infant in her arms was crying incessantly. Without Wang Xi around, the baby was no different from any ordinary infant, and the man carried her around the space anxiously in circles.
"Yin spirit?" Cheng Mo was momentarily startled, not expecting Lin Ying to call out the name of one of the three souls so straightforwardly, which indeed was that very wisp of remnant soul that Cheng Mo had snatched away.
Lin Tian furrowed his brows, faintly sensing that these fragments were extraordinary. When he dug them out and pieced them together, his heart skipped a beat. Although incomplete, the assembled shards still revealed the outline of a token. The front outline was no longer clear, but the back distinctly bore the emblem of a leaping flame.
"Many thanks, Your Highness!" Lin Tian gave a subtle signal with his eyes, and leading his disciples, he bowed in salute once more. The crown prince of Husa was convinced that his group belonged to a cadet branch of the Zhang family of the Great Han nation, which was for the best; it allowed them to follow behind the main force and act according to circumstances.
As for the ridicule and sarcasm of others, Lin Tian always ignored them completely, walking his own path. However, he was by no means willing to remain mediocre.
In this way, she would be able to enter and leave the palace freely in the future and could leverage the trust of the Emperor and various ministers to help her search for the Tongtian Tower. After all, only by finding the Tongtian Tower could she acquire the immortal realm's mental cultivation method and ultimately fulfill her goal of returning to the immortal realm one day to reclaim the title of Holy Sovereign.
Sikong Yun gazed leisurely ahead, a trace of worry flashing across his eyes before instantly filling with boundless confidence.
"Stop talking for a moment. Can you get off my back now?" Li Si asked with a displeased expression.
"Got it, Sis! Aside from yourself, make sure to take good care of yourself!" Bu Qu smiled, nodded, and replied.
"To think there actually is a signpost pointing to the schoolhouse. Doesn't the schoolhouse lack classrooms?" Looking at the words on the very bottom segment of the intersection signpost, Lin Feng thought with a hint of perplexity.
After taking his temperature, Yang Guangzong leaned against the wall and made his way to the emergency room, only to see the owner of the scrapped car modification factory sitting on a bench outside with his head in his hands, utterly dejected and sighing repeatedly.
Seeing Taishi Ci burst forth out of nowhere, Zhu Huan's expression changed drastically. He pulled hard on the reins and instantly raised a hand in the air to signal. Behind him, the eighty thousand elite Wu soldiers saw Zhu Huan's gesture and all came to a halt, with some soldiers even remaining inside the city and failing to rush out.
Watching Chu Tianshu clad in pajamas, nodding and bowing like an employee who had just been reprimanded at the office, the image was simply too comical.
When Chu Tianshu eagerly rushed to the Qinglian Club, Wang Shaolei was unusually waiting for him ahead of time in the private room. The expression on his face was somewhat gloomy, and the room was already hazy with cigarette smoke.
I picked up my cup of coffee, took a sip, and stopped dwelling on it. After all, company bosses excelled at playing this game: warnings were meant to keep employees from letting down their guard, while encouragement prevented them from losing confidence. It was just that Jianwei, as a rookie boss in the corporate world, hadn't quite managed to strike the right balance, which made things feel somewhat contradictory to me.
"Kill! Kill! Kill them all! To kill one is to break even, to kill two is to turn a profit, and to kill three is a huge windfall!" Wei Zhuang laughed heartily, his spirit soaring to the heavens and utterly defiant of death. He spoke with a smile, completely devoid of any dejection in the face of mortality.
"No. I just found it a bit too unexpected. I originally thought some wealthy collector would be the one to purchase the jade bracelet." Gu Meng endured and endured, but ultimately refrained from voicing the thoughts lingering at the bottom of her heart.
