Chapter 74: Sis! You Blew Up!
For a fleeting moment, the cacophony of the hospital corridor faded away, replaced by the powerful thud of a heartbeat echoing in her ears—resonant, forceful, lingering. The scent at the tip of her nose shifted from the sterile tang of antiseptics to something else, sharp and somehow familiar—not the fragrance of laundry detergent, nor the cologne of a man, but a faint, pleasant aroma. An inexplicable sense of familiarity made Lu Qingfei furrow her brows slightly. She turned around and looked up; Jiang Heng was right before her, his large hand clenched tightly.
Rael was still a solo player; his reason for joining Da E and Cofi's team was to make up the numbers for the Holy Shield tournament, and, of course, because of the Wyatt family. Thus, all four goals occurred in the second half. Not long after the restart, Liverpool scored first and widened the lead ten minutes later.
After all, how many families could casually produce hundreds of thousands of dollars just to form a security team? Watching Su Jiangzi’s ever-present smile, Lu Ling couldn’t help but feel a strong aversion, though she still managed to restrain herself and regain her composure.
"Do I have to advertise myself every time I date you guys? Isn’t my name Li Yi? Or did I give you a false name?" Li Yi’s words left the group speechless.
Linda and her colleagues were all new hires, lacking experience and still in training. Their instructor was the elder of the McDonald brothers. The personal guards dared not say much more; the two lifted Ji Moqing, lantern in hand, and disappeared into the night.
The veteran Sena, with age taking its toll, had seen his stamina and form decline. He had missed the last match due to health issues; yet, for this do-or-die battle, Sena still started. "Are you kidding me? At least make up a better reason!" Zhu Wu raised his hand high.
Those three hundred men were brimming with morale. They had finally witnessed the most terrifying side of Ye Lingfeng—a side they would never have seen under different circumstances. Watching the familiar, imperious figure step out of the car, Ye Qingcheng closed her eyes. Her chest felt tight, her eyes stinging, yet she couldn’t utter a single word.
But his legs were too short to keep up. He watched helplessly as his mommy got into another man’s car and left him behind forever.
I find Director Yan’s words rather hurtful. He didn’t even ask what had happened, just immediately blamed Yan Wang. No wonder Yan Wang’s relationship with his father is strained—Director Yan is indeed far too harsh.
"Here’s what we’ll do: when it charges at you again, if you can’t see through it, act immediately," Lu Ye instructed.
Murong Xuan naturally understood that the reason Fu Lingya came to her for help and told her all this wasn’t simply to visit her quarters.
"No, unless you agree to my earlier condition," Cai Minmin said, her large, bright eyes fixed intently on him.
Yang Rui glanced at his phone once more and dialed a number. After several seconds of ringing, the call ended automatically with no answer.
Moreover, I believe that unless something catastrophic happens to the Qi family, Deng Zerong will not return to Rong City easily. After all, I have leverage over them—they wouldn’t dare take such a risk.
He had a dream where he finally saw his mother, but she didn’t recognize him and turned away without mercy.
The car turned into the slums, where houses were pieced together from scrap metal and old vehicles. Their resistance to corrosion was far inferior to the alloy homes in the residential district; some were rusting, the paint flaking and mottled.
After a while, the footsteps outside the wall gradually receded, though the clamorous noise lingered on.
With the Dragon Blood Flying Needle sealing her, the demonic energy in Dugu Xue’s body was cut off and scattered, while Lin Chen’s righteous energy surged inside her like a mighty tide.
The sword light blazed like fire, locking onto its target—the enemy cultivator who had suddenly appeared to block Jun Yixiao and Leng Qing.
