Chapter 80: The Persona of the Innocent Beauty

"Don't misunderstand me, I wasn't following you," Wang Fan hurriedly explained. "Qu Peng told me. He and his dad went to the night market last night for lamb skewers, saw you there, but you all seemed busy, so he didn't want to disturb you."

Lin Xiyu was startled. "He was at the barbecue stall too?"

"Across the street..." Wang Fan, feeling no guilt, readily sold out his childhood friend. "He saw you having a conflict with a drunk."

Guan Lin bit her lower lip tightly, so hard that it had already lost all color.

All the way downstairs, after getting into her own car, Xu Fei drove her Beetle straight out of the parking lot. Not far away, another car immediately pulled out, silently tailing her as she left.

"Hmph..." Lin Cheng sniffed around, catching a strong, pungent scent—it was clearly the smell of pus from a man.

From fourth rank to first rank, such rapid promotion was nothing short of a meteoric rise.

Gu Qingkuang nodded, raised his hand, and knocked Lian Cheng out. Then, as Ye Chenming had instructed, he carried Lian Cheng to the widest sofa.

Poor Zhuang Mengdie had been taken to 1997 by that butterfly hairpin. Now, she had swapped places with her 2017 self. Once, she had sat in the interrogation room with Ye Tian, interrogating others. Now, she was a despised prisoner, sitting in the suspect's seat, being questioned.

She had only been thinking about his illness earlier, not considering much else. Now, with his reminder, she finally noticed the ambiguous tension between them.

"Are you cold?" Xin Xin brought an extra jacket, which he hadn't worn. He unfolded it and draped it over Deng Yunshi. Deng Yunshi was startled by his action, turned to look at him, and softly thanked him.

Bando Tatsuo was so embarrassed he wanted to crawl into a hole. The thing Zhang Yiming was holding, tied together with rope, could certainly handle the situation for ordinary people. But was this guy really out of options, so his mind had gone haywire?

Kakashi's gaze sharpened; without any hesitation, he tapped his toe, using the canoe's last bit of buoyancy to leap out.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get your gifts." Ye Fan smiled silently, opened the trunk with the three children, and revealed all the presents Zhang Lu had prepared in advance.

Chen Zhifan was completely confused, and the Tree of Troubles gave him no chance to ask. The Tree of Troubles had never told Chen Zhifan what exactly was happening here.

In the hospital room on the second floor, Qi Feng looked at the instant noodle cup with only one fork inside, appearing somewhat melancholy.

Guan Feitian had been full of confidence, thinking that Chu Mengyao and her group would soon suffer a complete defeat.

The two bosses remained on either side of the magma waterfall, no longer advancing or making any moves, simply gazing up at the top of the cascade.

"What does that department do?" Qi Feng asked nervously, stuffing a piece of meat in his mouth while trembling.

Both were chivalrous at heart and would not shirk their duty. Though Sister Fang said the villagers were mostly wicked, they had not seen it themselves. Saving lives was the priority. They bid farewell to Sister Fang and followed Li Qing out.

"You're the ones who are sick! I'm not sick at all. You're just jealous of my intelligence!" Xu Qianqian cried out in grievance.

When Samsung smartphones replaced the OR company to become the new global leader in phone manufacturing, all of Korea erupted in excitement. Even Korean-Americans in the United States were beaming, calling out "ssamida" with pride, giving thumbs up and claiming Samsung was truly number one in the world. Their arrogant faces were utterly repulsive.

"But you may have to part with her for a while. Doing so will help Mary even more. Are you willing?" Lacus continued to ask.
