Volume 1, Chapter 58: Lu Jinchuan, Have You Fallen in Love with Me?

Ji Shu hurriedly stepped forward to pull Gao Xia behind her.

Seeing her acting like a mother hen protecting her chicks, Lu Jinchuan let out a faint, mocking chuckle.

Worried about them, each one of them gave endless instructions to Yun Fuxiao and Consort Zhaorong, amusing Consort Zhaorong to the point of laughter.

She had been sent away from the imperial capital right after birth because her mother was not her father's primary wife, and given the perilous strife within the inner palace at the time, she could have been murdered at any moment.

"Your concubine is fine. Fortunately, they arrived in time. Your Majesty, you must reward them handsomely." Yun Fuxiao did not stint in expressing her gratitude to Long Wu, Long Jiu, Wu Yao, Suye, and the others, and finally solemnly thanked Nangong Qing for saving her life.

After half the burning of an incense stick, Xi Xizhi managed to spit out the names and ingredients of five dishes. She raised a hand to wipe the sweat from her temple and could not help letting out a sigh of relief.

Right at that moment, a flash of white light leaped in through the window. Before they could react, the white light had already lunged toward Yun Fuxiao.

A chill crept up from the soles of Fang Quanqiang's feet. With these people withdrawing, it meant that the Japanese delegation he represented in this Orchid Exhibition had directly forfeited, rendering all his previous efforts completely in vain.

However, Chen Yu also felt somewhat depressed deep down. It was one thing for an adult to be playful, but why would he bring a child into a police station? Wasn't this setting a terrible example for the child?

The sky grew progressively darker. The evening breeze always brought a refreshing coolness, and as that chilly sensation blew against the face, it seemed as though even one's heart settled into a state of calm.

ESPN used a special satellite-encrypted signal and tape-delivery method, which could expand the coverage of the broadcast.

"I didn't expect you to be quite so compassionate," Lau Puer said with a smile after a moment of surprise.

Ever since becoming a ninja, this was the first time anyone had ever offered to celebrate his birthday, yet he couldn't even afford to pay for the celebration. This left Might Guy feeling both guilty and sorrowful.

The next day, upon hearing that Huineng had left with the token, several monks in the temple secretly ran out to chase after him in hopes of reclaiming the monastic robe and bowl. Among them, Senior Brother Daoming led a group of over a dozen men in relentless pursuit, and eventually caught up with Huineng.

Yet inwardly, he was already laughing with glee. Watching Gould and Roydes mutually flattering each other, Richard knew very well that Gould was doing it intentionally, but the smirk in his heart was simply beyond his ability to suppress.

"Ugh, is this guy really that formidable? Do you think Xiang Chong can't compare to him?" Chu Yun asked with a strange expression.

With a "roar," the thunderous sound wave rolled down, instantly knocking Addy and Bryant flat onto the ground.

Staring at the phone screen with azure-blue eyes for a long time, just as she placed the phone on her chest and prepared to close her eyes, she felt a vibration travel from her palm. Along with the buzzing sound, Jerry squinted at the name displayed on the screen, and closed her eyes in utter despair.

Controlled by some mysterious force, this wave of fire composed of a ring of flames swept across a radius of a hundred meters centered around that point, stopping abruptly just before reaching the mount of the knight commander who had torn the scroll, and then vanishing into thin air.

Except for those who knew her well, it was hard for many people to realize that Yan Fei was already married at the time, and that her husband was actually the CEO of MK Corporation.

Oberding put almost eighty percent of his full strength into that kick. The force, akin to the charge of nearly twenty fierce horses, was enough to crush him. Even though his left eye's dynamic vision captured Oberding's attacking trajectory, that speed and that power were completely beyond what his current physical fitness could manage to dodge.
