Su Jinxia realized that the pregnant woman was in poor condition. She lowered her head to take a look—and immediately saw that far too much blood was flowing below. It was a sign of impending hemorrhage, and the quilt beneath the woman was soon soaked through. Her brows drew tightly together. It seemed she could only stop the bleeding temporarily by applying acupuncture.

“Oh no, she’s going to suffer massive blood loss!” one of the women beside them cried. “Heavens above, is this going to cost her her life?”

Li Haixia took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Su Jinxia’s face. It was her first time encountering such a situation, and she had no idea what to do. All she could do was stand nearby in helpless agitation.

She watched as Su Jinxia rolled up the pregnant woman’s sleeve and inserted needles into several points.

They did not understand what was happening, but soon they noticed that the flow of blood was...

Wang Kai raised his hand before his mouth, revealing the tattoo in the web between his thumb and forefinger, then bowed to everyone.

Natasha shot Nick Fury a withering look. That man really did take too much for granted. If things went that way, Wang Kai would kill her without mercy or hesitation. Her sacrifice would be completely pointless. When she said she was leaving S.H.I.E.L.D., she meant leaving it completely—not continuing to play by the rules of the spy game.

After exchanging a few words, Kelton, director of the FBI’s Boston field office, led everyone into the building. They were heading to the conference room upstairs to begin that day’s negotiations.

“Mom, you should go home and get some rest,” Baby said, seeing the weariness on Han Su’s face and deciding not to keep her.

Alas! Li Danruo let out a heavy sigh. Behind every glory lay profound pain and the thick stench of blood.

Old Madam Cheng gave one instruction after another, and Steward Liu answered each in turn. Seeing that she had nothing else to say, he withdrew to rest.

“Then... what is it that President Qin wants?” Su Wuyang refused to take another step forward and stubbornly remained standing in the courtyard.

After taking his place on the granite floor, Ye Tian first examined the scene. Then he crouched down again and began wiping the dust and moss from several tiles ahead with a towel.

Sweetie had no parents. She had always regarded Ling Yang as her father and Chu Wanyi as her mother. Thus, when creating the illusion, she instinctively transformed the general’s beloved concubine into Chu Wanyi’s likeness.

Ling Yang took one look and cried out inwardly, My God, how could it be so enormous? He immediately let his imagination run wild without the slightest restraint, and two warm streams burst from his nostrils.

The Ji family’s guess had been correct. In barely half a day, the video of Ji Yanli’s injury was already spreading wildly across the internet.

But no one was willing to listen to another word from him, because the security guards had already dragged the two of them outside.

There were no guests in the lobby, only a receptionist at the front desk, who was engrossed in playing with her phone.

“Zhiyi, as long as you obediently listen to me, what harm is there? Do you really intend to drive this matter to the bitter end?” King Hengyuan advanced on Shen Zhiyi, his tone carrying a hint of both threat and seduction.

It was not that he did not want to take her to an expensive restaurant. He simply wanted to choose somewhere different from the place Li Jiyan had taken her.

If not for the accident that had occurred earlier at the Shengqi Club, Zhang Anfeng might already have become entangled with the two Chen brothers by now.

Lu Xiao appeared to be dressed plainly and truly looked like an ordinary university student, yet his entire body radiated an extraordinary air.

For the first time, he felt his mind go blank. Not only did waves of stabbing pain spread through his chest, but he also discovered that his hands were trembling.

Long Xing glanced at Snake King’s ugly face. He really did not want Snake Charm to see him in this state; otherwise, she would surely have nightmares.

Although Lu Xiao understood that Shen Ruoxi was warning him to watch what he said, he still opened his mouth instinctively.

This mutation continued without end. It had not stopped even after the Dark God King’s divine core was devoured, reducing him to a cripple, and Lucifer slew him with a single sword stroke.

“How exactly were they created? That’s incredible!” Lu Feiyang thought that the ability to manufacture battle armor was nothing short of a miracle.

The pain drove the Devouring Sea Whale into even greater fury. It opened its razor-sharp jaws and lunged at Xu Zhe, simultaneously unleashing a mental attack and its force-based abilities.

“Damn it!” Li Zhigang panicked slightly when he saw Liu Tianming charging toward him. He knew very well that in a one-on-one fight, he stood little chance of defeating Liu Tianming, who was known as the Emperor of Basketball.

Just think about it: who could possibly defeat a five-star Origin Warrior with a special force trait while possessing only the strength of a mere four-star Origin Warrior?

And what could possibly be terrifying enough for this man to describe it as terrifying? No one could even begin to imagine. All they could do was wait anxiously for him to continue speaking.

Liu Hao pushed both feet to their absolute limit. If the mobile suit had not been equipped with a simplified nuclear drive, then considering Earth’s gravity and the machine’s weight, flying here from Orb and fighting a battle would have nearly exhausted its energy. How could it still be capable of flying at high speed through the desert after the battle, as it was now?

“What makes it so different?” Yu Xie asked. He had seen Dantai Mingyue’s transformation and found it incredibly adorable. Who would have thought she would turn into one enormous egg? He had been so excited that he had almost become an incubator himself. He even wondered whether, after emerging from her transformation, Dantai Mingyue might recognize him as family and call him “Dad.”

As this state of perfect stillness took shape, the knife in Lin Xifan’s hand flew out and struck the wooden board with a sharp clack.

The two of them hurriedly ate a little before heading out onto the street. Wang knew that the children had grown up and did not interfere much, merely telling Zhao Fuxin to come home early.

Yu Youjia was Yu Youjia, and Mo Wanlin was Mo Wanlin. Gu Lian would worry only about Yu Youjia; she was confident she would never develop the sort of affection that extended to someone merely because she loved another. Otherwise, would she not have to accept Yin Rongyu as well?

Thus, when Guan Chenji appeared in the living room with his clothes in disarray, everyone immediately turned their eyes toward him in unison.

“What is it? Has something good happened?” Ye Tianyu could tell from Old Master Su’s cheerful mood and asked with a smile.

Patchouli had not originally been very interested in competing with Nangong Nayue for favor. But seeing Nangong Nayue’s secretly smug and provocative expression was simply too amusing for her to hold back.

Damn it, why did Boss Bao have to attend the opening ceremony of the television festival? Wasn’t it merely an excuse to create more opportunities for him and Gu Lian to spend time together? A welcome reception? Gu Lian immediately became alert.

The Third Prince, however, nodded secretly. So that was how it was. He truly had no idea what miraculous method Lan Tian had used to hold on until now. Given his physical condition, he should have left this world long ago.
