Chapter 120 Setting an Example, Taking the Younger Brother Away

"No more swimming. When people arrive shortly, you need to set a good example." Director Zhang entrusted her with a weighty task: "Take your younger brother and leave first, so that everyone can see the neighborhood office's determination to enforce the order."

"Understood."

Lin Xiyu hung her head, feeling rather reluctant. Director Zhang was using her as a pawn! Yet, he was right; she had no choice but to comply.

"Ah, swimming is forbidden now?"

Dispelling the black flames in his hands, Li Yang stood up, a terrifying aura of the mid-stage Yuanling Realm surging from his body.

He also designed new official robes for the first to ninth-rank officials, specifying new colors and belts, with handkerchiefs, counting bags, knives, and whetstones attached to the belts.

Ling Mei gazed at the sacrificial altar, which remained standing despite being charred. She reached out to brush away the ashes on the surface and retrieved a crystal shimmering with pale purple ripples from the pile of debris.

The moment Ye Lan saw Scholar Zhang, she thought of the vacancy for a teacher in Jinxiu Village; it would be wonderful if he could take the position.

The neighbors had not expected the Hu family to rest so early. The next day, some even came to the house to buy sesame cakes and fried dough twists. Fortunately, the Hu family was preparing food for the Lunar New Year and had dough ready, so they quickly baked and fried batches to satisfy the buyers and send them off happily.

The flower goddess, the power of flora, the Void Yin-Yang Mirror, and her relationships with Mu Liangqi and Jing Yi—everything seemed to point toward the memories in her dreams. Xia Shiyu knew that to solve the problem fundamentally, that lost memory was the key.

I followed Xiao Zunli’s gaze toward the half-open door. Heavens, my heart skipped a beat and nearly rose to my throat the moment I saw who was coming.

Who exactly was this eccentric man before me? And who was I? What was his name? What was mine?

Because Ye Shaochen had only called her once he reached the door, Ji Ning hadn't tidied herself up much. She was wearing simple loungewear, with slippers on her feet that matched Ye Shaochen’s.

Dark matter surged to the heavens, and two fierce beasts crawled out from the dark void, bathing in the thick darkness as they attacked.

Suddenly, he bent down and scooped her up from the ground, striding brazenly toward the hospital bed.

For the past few days, the entire City Lord's Mansion had been suppressed by a strange atmosphere. Those in the know felt profound sorrow, both for her and for the situation. Yet, there was much confusion: why, knowing she was missing, did no one send anyone to search for her?

Sensing Yao Qingmu’s distress, he looked down at her in his arms and saw her face was pale, her eyes wide open and motionless, as if her soul had left her body.

He had always believed their love was truly solid, indestructible, a mutual affection between equals, and steadfast. But now, he felt that these were merely his own assumptions.

Red light, stop; green light, go. He slammed on the accelerator, and with wind-like speed, a sharp screech of friction rang out.

"Are you saying I have to wear all these things and walk the red carpet again to perform the heaven-worship ceremony?" Rong Qian’s brows furrowed instantly, a flash of reluctance crossing her face.

"Why buy so much beer?" Sheng Shi frowned, started the car, and drove skillfully onto the street.

He was no different now than he had been four years ago. The only difference was that his hatred was now permeated with love for her. He despised her arrogance and pride, yet he found himself helplessly obsessed with her.

However, Chang Tianfeng had never found a suitable man for Chang Xiuyue, as his requirements were too high—one might say, harsh. He sought a man with high cultivation, great potential, and who was both young and handsome.

Furthermore, as these gu-insects escaped from Asari’s body, countless green baleful vapors surged from Asari, sweeping over the insects and turning them into ashes in an instant.
