Volume 1, Chapter 49: Lu Jinchuan Is Sick

After finishing the cake and tidying up the room briefly, Ji Shu stayed over at the Emerald Mansion that night.

Because she needed to conduct an on-site inspection of the Sulton project the next day and her car was still parked at the Lu residence, Ji Shu woke up an hour early the following morning and hailed a cab to retrieve her vehicle.

"Why are you telling me to get lost? Shouldn't I be going home with you?" I looked at the woman speechlessly and asked.

Roland withdrew his gaze from Meg. Judging by Meg's previous micro-expressions, he could already be certain that the latter was masking his emotions.

However, regarding security, due to Chen Jia's intervention, the two originally arranged reinforced platoons were withdrawn and replaced solely by Chen Jia.

A smile appeared on Amy's face. Father was indeed amazing; it seemed she didn't even need to give him too many recommendations.

Keeping a close watch on the wretched and vulgar middle-aged Scar-faced Rat to prevent him from waking up and running away, they remained stationed in place to stand by.

A friend from the relevant department called him, saying that he should bring the documents along for an on-site inspection. Most importantly, leadership would be attending as well—this was nothing short of monumental good news.

Acting merely like a machine that only made instinctive reactions to things perceived by consciousness, Fang Ran saw Krim appear before him at this moment without even questioning why the latter was here.

"Hehe, this is just drinking without bragging. As long as the wine is good, we don't really care about the rest," another person chuckled and said.

Hearing Yang Yifan's shout, the two figures not far away both came to a sudden halt, turned their heads to exchange a glance, and instantly understood each other's intent.

"A brilliant stratagem, but what if you fail to make it back to your camp?" A cold voice rang out as a slender, shadowy figure leaped down from a tall tree not far from them, advancing toward them step by step.

Luo Zhixin actually transformed his form, though his leading head was fixed on Huo Quguang, wearing a somewhat unsightly expression.

Gasping sounds of amazement simultaneously erupted all around, clearly expressing astonishment at the massive progress Huang Zhan had achieved in just half a year.

A thousand words ultimately condensed into a single sentence: "Take care, young lady!" With that, he turned around and led the bewildered, completely clueless crowd of over two hundred thousand people to retreat into the distance.

A shield crackling with lightning suddenly materialized in front of the youth. Zhao Liang's blade happened to strike right upon this lightning-formed barrier, resulting in his entire body convulsing from electric shocks. Before he could recover from the seizure, another bolt of lightning struck down from thin air directly above his head, reducing him to ashes on the spot.

Moreover, she had been calling out Nangong Yi's name the entire time back then. It seemed that at that moment, the only person left in her heart was him, and the one she most wanted to see was also him.

Overcome with a mix of anger and helplessness, he suddenly grabbed her arm, pulled her abruptly into his embrace, and glared fiercely into her shocked, wide-open almond eyes.

Seeing Qu Lian'er so frightened that she was rendered speechless, Luo Qian'er felt utterly speechless; it seemed that if she wanted to survive, she would still have to rely on herself.

After scanning the match map all around, Zhao Sen could not help but inwardly groan in dismay. To have such a wretched map randomly selected for the very first match could only be considered an unfavorable start.

"You!! Don't think that just because you're her younger brother, I wouldn't dare to do anything to you!" A fierce gleam had already begun to brew in Mu Yue's eyes as she grasped a fiery crimson staff that emitted an alluring red glow.

For instance, her departure lasted two whole years—two years that brought about profound changes between her present self and her self of two years ago, not least of which was her own growth.

However, these cats were all regarding them with expressions full of disdain and hostility.

"Daddy, Baby is giving Ada very serious instructions, please don't interrupt us, okay?" Large, dark eyes revealed a touch of earnestness and gravity, an aura so mismatched with his age that Gu Chen could not help feeling a surge of admiration in his heart.
