Volume 1, Chapter 21: Leaving the Village, Setting Sail!

Page (1/3)

This drone is an intelligent drone with two modes: manual control and intelligent follow. Once intelligent follow mode is selected, the drone will find a suitable angle to film Zhao Chen, allowing him to devote himself entirely to whatever he is doing.

Ever since the news broke that Nine Dragons Village would once again undergo redevelopment, the five major conglomerates that had long coveted it had been exerting pressure on Dong Lin, both openly and covertly, hoping to secure a share of the spoils.

He knew that many entertainers had obtained opportunities only after seeking them out in every possible way. But hadn’t Chen Yijie signed with a new company?

At the previous Central Plains Television gala, he had merely sung one song, with his main contribution being behind the scenes. This time was different. This marked an excellent beginning for him in the television industry.

After petting the cat for a while, Zhao Chen returned to the house, took a bottle of chilled cola from the refrigerator, popped open the can, and drank a refreshing mouthful.

Ming Wuyou took a deep breath and opened several windows to let in fresh air. Only then did he carry the beautiful camellia and place it on his desk.

Its popularity was even greater than he had imagined. If the album itself had not been so dreadful, the figures this time would have exceeded thirty million.

White Horse understood what it meant. It threw back its head and let out a long neigh, stamping its forehooves repeatedly in place, looking thoroughly displeased.

After Ming Wuyou and Murong Yu left the capital, he could endure it no longer. With Princess Anping’s permission, he took Qingfeng and left the capital as well, stepping into the martial world and traveling far and wide.

“Who is looking for me?” Xia Chunmei had just returned from Tian Cuiya’s home when she ran into Fan Baoyun, who had come to call on her.

Jiang Hu personally came to the Beauty Source Club and went straight to Ding Hong’s office, leaving Ding Hong utterly astonished.

Jiang Chen had recently been recuperating at the Brahma Palace. To make sure he ate well, Yun Lei had transformed himself into the palace chef, preparing meals for everyone every day.

The basement was very quiet. Zhao Qiuyan walked ahead, her high heels striking the floor with a crisp, rhythmic clicking.

Ironhead climbed to his feet again and explained in agony, “It’s true. There isn’t a single lie in what I said.”

Ye Yanche listened to her defense of him. Though he did not know whether it was true, hearing those words left him feeling warm inside.

It was no wonder he had become like this. He had once been a cripple whom no one respected, and he had thought he would spend his entire life that way. Then Lin Fan appeared and completely changed his fate. To be honest, even now he still felt as though he were living in a dream.

When Zhang Fan saw that the Daoist priest did not respond, he knew there was no hope left. He had never expected the man to be so obsessed with money, but trapping him there this time could at least vent the resentment in his heart.

From the outside, the club seemed to occupy several thousand square meters. It was lavishly decorated, glittering with gold and color, and exuded an overwhelming air of wealth.

After Jiang Wanyou emerged from the underworld, they followed her out as well. When Jiang Wanyou’s wandering soul returned to her body and she went back to the Jiang residence, they entered the Jiang residence with her.

Tang San was quite experienced, after all. He was already advanced in age, and this was the second time he had attended such a grand assembly.

Li Jinlong looked at He Ze, murderous intent surging in his eyes. It was a hatred etched into his very bones. Only when he saw He Ze would Li Jinlong shed his playful facade and reveal his true nature.

Zhang Xiaogui said nothing. She forcefully smashed the liquor jar in her hand onto the ground. Shards of glass flew everywhere amid the foul-smelling, dark-brown liquid, splattering in all directions.

This in itself was an extremely unusual matter, but that was not the key point. She had an even more important objective.

“Making a deal with a tiger and then turning against it is perfectly normal. But for the Fire Shadow to act at this moment, it seems a little late. What is it? Has New Dragon City already fallen into crisis?” Chu Tianshu asked.

Through a secret report from Eunuch Wang, the King of Chechi learned that Duan Lang and Qingqiudie had not shared any intimate contact. He was delighted, and once again held a farewell banquet for Duan Lang and his party at the State Guesthouse, presenting Duan Lang with a large quantity of Chechi specialties as keepsakes.

Big Baldy and Bear Two completely lost control. Unable to endure any longer, they let out roars and cries that pierced the clouds. Their faces twisted with unbearable pain, their bodies trembled violently, and their eyes turned blood-red with madness.

“Don’t ask. Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t.” My elder uncle had grown more and more mysterious lately. Xiao Jian would not let me ask what he was doing, but he must have been carrying out some secret mission—one that was probably related to this incident.

Spain’s plan to attack Sanya had likewise been constrained by these objective conditions, which was why it had attempted to employ a strategy of swift and decisive warfare. In the end, however, it had still failed to prevail. If Haihan wanted to take another path and wage a prolonged war, the problem of material supplies it faced would only be more difficult than that of its opponent.

Lin Xiaojue did not listen to the discussion between Madam Zhang and Madam Liu. She made an excuse to leave, then went to the Princess’s Residence to see Li Guxin.

“We’re staying at the inn. Do you want two rooms or three?” Huyou turned to Yue Ying and asked. With two rooms, he and Qin Jue would share one; with three, he would still have to sneak into Qin Jue’s room in the middle of the night.

Yang Suhua and Song Zhenzhen exchanged a knowing smile. They greatly enjoyed the satisfaction of controlling everything.

Indeed. Belumei had put herself in the other person’s place, imagining where she herself would lie in wait to snipe, and then avoiding the enemy’s line of fire.

What was more, the other party seemed to have no idea what had happened and had somehow decided to oppose him. After being used by someone, he still had to flaunt it proudly.

It was already late. Yue Liqing secretly returned to the Profound Nether Palace, hoping not to be discovered by anyone. But just as she reached the door of her room, she heard a shrill conversation coming from the room next door. Already in a foul mood, she happened to encounter Nan Xiujun doing such a thing. Furious, she returned to her room, extinguished the lamp, and went to sleep.

Although this could hardly be considered a major matter, Jiang Mengxi still chose to hold nothing back.

When Jiang Mengxi returned home, the floor was clean, the glass had been polished, and the sofa and table had been tidied perfectly.

In the midst of victory, people began instinctively to believe that Qin Jue’s “ideology” was absolutely correct.

At that moment, Lin Zixi seemed to have returned to her younger self. She had never imagined that such a beautiful memory lay beneath this great tree.

Even if the explosion did not kill her, leaving her gravely wounded, with an arm or a leg blown off, what difference would that make from death?

The negotiations had succeeded, which meant that Huaxia’s long war against the Japanese invaders had finally come to an end, ushering in a new era.

When beating and scolding failed, Gong Xique changed tactics. Together, the mother and her sons pushed and dragged Sun Yue’e out of the courtyard, locked the courtyard gate, bolted the room door, latched the windows from the inside, and forbade their daughter-in-law to eat, enter the room, or return home.
