Chapter 36: What do you think of my mother?

Zhang Chunxue’s face flushed crimson the moment he asked, as if she had been caught red-handed in some secret transgression, her eyes darting away in nervous evasion. She stammered for a long while, her voice barely a mosquito’s hum: "Back then... back then in the village, among those who didn't mind that I had been married before, that I was a widow with children to raise, the only one who was willing to treat me well... it seems, it seems it was only... only you..."

At these words, Song Xingzhi felt—

Finally, looking ahead at the three thousand Longxi troops who had finished assembling and packed the entire ferry crossing into a dense, dark mass, he reached out and took the tiger-headed gold-inlaid spear handed to him by a soldier. He raised it high, brandishing it through the air with a whistling force.

"Hey, have you reached an agreement with Sister Hua? Is it settled?" Lu Zhen asked through the carriage window after riding alongside Ye Nanxi’s carriage for a stretch.

"Damn it, here we go. I want to see for myself if this Sister Lili that the freak recommended is actually as pretty as they say..." Muttering, Wang Shouquan picked up a blade from the ground and sauntered out, head tilted and swaggering.

Outside, the crowd was a vast, surging sea of people; the low murmur of whispers and the boisterous, overwhelming cacophony of chatter and laughter were incessant.

"Alright, Brother Bao, now you can tell me exactly where you are. I’ve already tracked that BMW. It looks like it’s still heading east..." Moses watched the red dot on the screen.

Time ticked away second by second. Under the effects of the Frost of Life, the ghost-level boss was no match for us. Watching the wounds covering its body, as an undead entity, it did not bleed, but its vitality was still rapidly plummeting.

"Wait for me to return together," Xiao Xuan said before heading into the main hall. Because of this remark, Nurse Kang’s expression grew even more sour; she glared at Ye Nanxi with such intensity it was as if she wanted to bore two holes right through her.

When Fang Xuanling spoke these words, Changsun Wuji, sitting in the parlor, nodded in silence. He could not help but think of his own third son, Yumo, who gave him the most trouble; the boy had changed so drastically of late that he found himself in silent agreement with Fang Xuanling.

Yet, based on this, Guo Ye could not help but grumble to himself: why wouldn't the Manager of Jiannan Circuit, who oversaw more than thirty prefectures, organize the regional defense garrisons from all those districts to combine their forces and wipe out the bandits together?

Qin Ying frowned inwardly. He knew full well what Luo Ersuopo was capable of; he was decent at best, far from being on par with himself. How dared he challenge the monk Falin? Could it be that he really didn't know Falin’s true background? Or perhaps... the old man had another trick up his sleeve?

"Why doesn't the child’s chest look like mine?" Ash asked, pouting with eyes wide open.

Lu Tianyu sat comfortably on the sofa, feeling quite pleased to enjoy such a complimentary treat.

However, it was only before leaving that he suddenly remembered something: he... he seemed to have a younger sister back in Donghe Province.

After caressing Qin Xuewu’s ample bosom for a while, Liu Yihua’s mischievous hands gradually unbuttoned her pajamas, and bit by bit, the snow-white, tender skin was revealed to his gaze. Qin Xuewu dared not be completely naked before him, which was why she had put on the pajamas just moments before.

Occasionally, items of unknown origin would appear among them, and the true value of these mysterious objects really depended on luck.

Suddenly, a light breeze blew through the curtain of rain, causing the downpour to sway. The figure drifted along with it, and in the process of this drifting, the direction, angle, and movement relative to the surrounding raindrops seemed as perfectly rehearsed and orderly as if they had been practiced countless times.

After the exercise concluded, Liu Yihua saw the growing number of children on the island and issued an order to improve their education.

"Hongjin, call Director Zhang. Use my name and tell him to get here immediately," Wang Zijun commanded loudly as Qin Hongjin’s gaze turned toward him.
