Chapter 40: Imagining a Grand Drama of the Abandoned Child

The father and daughter stared at each other once again. Luo Shicheng had no idea how to express his love and guilt toward his daughter, while Luo Yan simply disliked her deadbeat father; she still preferred her gentle and quiet mother.

Luo Shicheng gave a dry cough, breaking the awkward atmosphere between them, and tried to communicate with Luo Yan. "Yanyan, tell Dad, how did you come back?"

Luo Yan pondered how to explain this. Should she say she ran back like a gust of wind?

As for Tu He, it was truly a coincidence. It was just her luck that he had asked about those wedding customs and etiquette. Fortunately, she hadn't yet mentioned drinking tonight; otherwise, if she hadn't been eating that pastry just now, he likely would have been forced to down a few cups. But it was all too coincidental. Why was that pastry drugged?

Xiao Shan’s cultivation had reached the early stage of the Dao-Integration Realm. Yet, Ladeguns, whose combat power was even higher than his, walked down from his seat of honor after Xiao Shan appeared. He invited Xiao Shan to the seat he had just occupied, then knelt on one knee before him.

"Alright. Are we leaving now?" Yu Moqing looked back. The guard was bowing his head in a gesture of respect.

The criminal police had seen suspects turn themselves in, but they had never seen someone who hadn't committed a crime yet insisted on finding trouble for themselves.

Hearing Li Qiyu's rebuke, the doctor, who had just regained his composure, thought Li Qiyu was dissatisfied with his performance and immediately became flustered again. Dr. Niu, in particular, felt immense regret. He shouldn't have opened his mouth to suggest bringing Dr. Xiao over in the first place.

A sigh, filled with chaotic emotions, seemed to ring out right by the ear and deep within the mind.

The iron sword had actually flown out of his spatial ring on its own. He was momentarily astonished; this was the first time he had seen an object bypass the limitations of a spatial ring and break through space by itself.

As soon as Dr. Niu finished speaking, Tian Qiqi began shouting at the hospital leaders nearby.

The moment the Great Elder cried out in surprise, Yu Qianqian, the other half-demons, and He Jiuzhou all launched their own attacks.

"Uncle-Master, do you think we should look for another way? We can't just keep being harassed like this without fighting back, can we?" Luo Xiu’s question was phrased quite cleverly.

To Fu Sheng, it sounded like an insult. Indeed, their relationship certainly wasn't close enough for her to step in and help him at the drop of a hat.

Just as Su Jin got out of bed and before he could even check the time, the explosive roar of Old Man Su suddenly erupted from outside the door. Upon hearing it, Su Jin was startled, his groggy mind instantly clearing as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head.

Thinking of intelligence organizations, Palan remembered something: Blackwood City had already been conquered, so why hadn't he seen Firmino anywhere?

Therefore, she was quite conflicted and could only toss the problem to Dane. In any case, Dane was the true king, and only His Majesty the King could make the final decision on such a major matter.

If given just a little time, Star-Lord was confident he could snatch the Power Stone back from Ronan once again.

Jiuling gripped both her hands and kissed her suddenly. I was shocked and at a loss, my mind went blank, and my face flushed instantly. Oh well, it was just a kiss. Since I had taken his things, letting him take a little advantage could be considered compensation.

"My brother has clothes to wear. Li Xia, you should keep these for yourself," Xia Zhi said.

Although it was Old Man Tian’s intention, and everyone in the Tian family, including Da Ya and Er Ya’s mother, Madam Jiang, should have been willing, it still did not change the facts.

"If I could bring you here, I can certainly take you back. If you really can't walk, I'll carry you," Xiao Qiuyi said.
