Chapter 49: Heartbeat, Now and Forever Only You
Early this morning, Jiang Jingming's door was knocked upon.
When Jiang Jingming opened the door, Chen Fang looked somewhat surprised and asked with a puzzled tone:
"Hello, does Sang Yu live here?"
Jiang Jingming: "And you are?"
Behind the woman stood a man of about thirty years old, who did not look like an ordinary person.
Chen Fang explained: "Earlier, Sang Yu saved my granddaughter on the street, but that day, Sang—"
When Feng Xiang chose the site, he was completely unaware, and only learned what had happened after construction had already begun.
Mu Muyan grasped her mother's withered hand, scorching tears falling in heavy drops, her heart aching as if being sliced by a knife.
"Damn it! Then add other conditions to it! In short, make things difficult for him!" Her old man was certainly no pushover.
They had once made vows of lifelong devotion in countless temples, tying countless knots of eternal love together. They were a couple blessed by the gods and Buddhas; how could they possibly get divorced?
Anyway, she was already here at Ying Yucheng's place, and there were bodyguards stationed nearby, so she wasn't worried that Ying Sihan would snatch her away.
Although he had already guessed the outcome, hearing it spoken aloud by Hua Zhao still made his heart feel as though it were being twisted by a blade.
Now, not only did the special forces members ignore the original owner, but even Mu Anze rarely took the initiative to approach or speak to her. The original owner had completely become a marginalized figure within the team.
A bracelet hung around her porcelain-white arm—the very same one Zhou Yang had picked up at his doorway that night.
Very well, I already know you regard me as a delectable prey; you don't need to keep chanting about how delicious I am! Qi Heng struggled repeatedly to no avail, lying prone on the ground and thinking powerlessly.
Chen Fei threw caution to the wind and decided to go mad one last time. Ever since he began his cultivation, every perilous realm required fighting for survival in the cracks of desperation. Now, with no way back and retreat being too late—since pulling back might even expose him to the crushing momentum of these powerful figures—he might as well stake everything on a single gamble.
Yes, A-Li! Just now she had been entirely focused on Qiu He and hadn't paid any attention to A-Li at all. Now she suddenly remembered that A-Li had been sleeping right next to Qiu He, and from the moment they entered, she hadn't heard him cry or make a sound. Could he also...?
Seeing the expressions of utter disdain from the brothers, Black San timidly raised his thick, sturdy hand as if he had done something wrong, his face filled with embarrassment.
As Zhuo Xieyu spoke of this, Lan Mei stood anxiously nearby, barely holding herself back from interrupting. Why on earth was the esteemed cousin bringing this up again? Wasn't this just deliberately causing distress for her mistress?
If she weren't holding A-Li, Weiyang definitely would have punched the wall directly. But with A-Li in her arms, she could only cry out loudly, hoping to vent the overflowing fury in her chest.
"Eldest Brother, Father!!" Chen Da, Chen Long, Chen Hu, Chen Potian, along with Bing Si, instantly stepped forward in unison, shouting out to Chen Fei. Everyone else nearby remained silent, each nursing intensely tangled and conflicted emotions in their hearts.
Among the powerhouses of the Southern Territory, grandmasters and great grandmasters were not in short supply. However, not long ago, many great grandmasters had been ambushed and injured by the Water Mirror Martial Saint, rendering most of those top-tier experts unable to take to the battlefield. In contrast, the Western Territory was quite different, boasting a visibly larger number of grandmaster and great grandmaster-tier experts than the Southern Territory.
From afar, one could see a three-turn marker halo beneath Chenxi's feet, suggesting that the advancement was indeed proceeding smoothly.
Zhan Xie walked straight to the dining area, heading directly toward the section with meat dishes. No one dared to contest her; she leisurely picked up her food and sat down at a chair to eat at a slow, unhurried pace.
The siblings joked and laughed for a while until Wang Kai told them to enjoy themselves and that he needed to rest. Ignoring Guo Qiqi's protests that she still had things to say, he hung up the video call.
Furthermore, the people higher up seemed to care quite a bit about this mortal. It was a mystery what extraordinary abilities he possessed.
With the two armies concluding peace talks, they could finally return home. After half a year apart, they had washed away their past shame, returning this time as victors.
