Chapter 32

Inside the room, Rong Qian helped Xuanyuan Tianyue dress the wound on his chest and bandaged it, letting out a small sigh of relief. Although the injury was not life-threatening, she had never felt as terrified as she did while tending to it today. Perhaps, because it concerned him, her heart was truly in turmoil.

Assuming Mo Zihan had asked for some grand reward, Yuchi Haotian was relieved to find it was merely a request for a bodyguard.

If An Yalun was here, then A-Qi must be here too. But why was the emergency room pitch black and completely empty?

Slowly emerging from the water, Luo Yuling did not rush to dress, instead watching the noble attendant who stood quietly nearby.

"Yes, then I shall take my leave." Even though Murong Linglong felt a thousand, nay, ten thousand regrets and refused to accept this, she had to follow his command to "return to the palace," for she had lost the leverage to throw a tantrum.

Watching her, he couldn't help but swallow hard. His devilish hand reached out quietly, and as he had hoped, his touch was met with two exceptionally soft and rounded mounds.

The wedding of Muge and Murong Yufei took place as scheduled. On the wedding day, Mu Jing did not make things difficult for Murong Yufei, only insisting that the other party must treat his sister well.

Hearing Sang Zhuo reveal his most hidden secret so bluntly, Qiu Qi-er felt a mix of discomfort, shame, and indignation.

Looking down at Aludang through the crimson crystal lens, Fang Xiao’s voice turned low and magnetic.

"I will marry no one but Brother Wuxie in this life. Sooner or later, I will marry him and move into the Jun family estate. Just consider this getting used to it in advance!" Bai Zhiwei pleaded, pushing Bai Xuantian, Bai Xinghuai, and Bai Xingnian.

Once the two leads had departed, the crowd before the arena scrambled to their feet in a chaotic, noisy mess.

Zhou Chang’s words had enlightened him, but they also plunged him into deeper melancholy. He was forced to contemplate a serious issue he had previously forgotten—or rather, deliberately ignored: You Shuang'er’s family background.

To those at the acquired stage, the innate stage was like that of a god. Being able to spar with such a master would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his martial path.

"Excuse me, sir, are you a guest here?" the front desk clerk stopped me.

If luck was on his side, he would suffer spinal damage and spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair; if luck was against him, both kidneys would rupture and the renal artery would tear, leading to immediate death.

"System, what is a Ziren?" In box number five, Ye Tian looked at the potato-like object and asked, puzzled.

Entering his private space to wash away the sweat and change into clean clothes, he finally caught a ride home.

Although Ruoli was being punished, she didn't keep her mouth shut. Even while suffering here, she continued to preach to the people around her.

Qiu Keli walked over with an arrogant expression. While speaking, she nudged closer to Li Duo, casting a provocative glance at Natalia, clearly implying: do not get close to my darling.

Yan Yi let his hands fall helplessly. It seemed Song Lingyue was determined not to be with him anymore. His heart ached like it was being pricked by needles; at this moment, he didn't know who to blame, only time—time had changed everything, including her heart.

When Lu Lie awoke again, he had returned to the endless stone corridors he first encountered upon entering the interior of the giant tree world.

"Uh..." The dark shadow approached, stopping less than five meters away. Seeing the person's face, Ning Wuhua was stunned.

Tang Yongkai ran excitedly, imagining the look of joy on Ye Xue’s face when she saw the food. His heart felt even happier than if he had eaten it himself.

For a moment, the four people at the table and the sturdy men from the Northeast lying beneath it were all oily-faced and spirited. Who would believe they were here for an expedition? They looked more like they were on a picnic.

These were not merely sea vessels anchored here; in fact, the countless ships were connected by stairs and bridges. Each ship served as a shop or a house, with people coming and going, and one could even see carriages and horses traversing the bridges between the vessels.

Darkness swept across the land, and with the rising of a new sun on the horizon, daylight returned to the world.

Debris flew everywhere, and broken chunks of stone littered the ground. Yet, seeing this result, Li Duo shook his head repeatedly.

To divorce and escape the curse of the Chu family. To ensure Song Xiaoxiao would never rise again. To preserve the last shred of dignity for the Mu family in Lucheng.

It was already late at night when she returned to her room. Ruoxi was exhausted from the day; upon returning, she didn't even undress before collapsing onto the bed, lying face up. Her arms, legs, and waist ached in every spot. To think that a simple farewell banquet had left everyone running around in such a state—it was truly unsettling.

Zhiyun smiled and exchanged a few words with Hongshi and the Dong-e clan wife. In October, she fetched a prayer mat and placed it on the ground. Hongshi and his wife knelt together, and July handed a teacup to the Dong-e wife.

Li Shunxi, An Xi, and the others stood behind him, knowing there was no turning back. It was not only because the core area held the most vital assets of the research association, but also because the people they were looking for were all gathered there at that moment.

As the internal energy was first channeled in, it served only to make Xing Zhuo more alert, stimulating his nerves and causing him even greater pain.

"Yes, yes, Young Master Chen, here is your room card. I won't disturb you any further." The middle-aged man hurriedly apologized with a smile and left.

The next day, at noon, the Imperial Hotel was bustling with people. Ouyang Xue was being forced into a blind date. She smiled indifferently; when had she fallen to such a state?

"Chen Huan, how much confidence do you have in treating my condition?" Long Guofan asked, cutting straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yanli sighed helplessly; it seemed they would just have to wait for the results.

When he was at the villa, he always turned off or silenced his phone, because Elder Hua especially disliked such devices, claiming that it was because of mobile phones that many modern people lost so much time spent in each other's company.
