Brother Hui shook his head with disdain and said, "Looking like you, it has absolutely nothing to do with being handsome. Stop being so self-righteous."
Jiang Fan retorted, "Even if I have nothing to do with being handsome, I'm still a lot better than you."
Brother Hui mocked himself, "A person should have some self-awareness. A short-arse like me has never claimed to be handsome. Comparing yourself to me is purely seeking a sense of existence."
Returning to Baisha, it was already past nine in the evening. The two went straight to the club, where the San Gong tables were already packed.
Jiang Fan and Brother Hui didn't go inside, sitting instead in the mahjong parlor outside, and had a henchman pack some food to go to solve their dinner.
Oblivious to the gossip, Jiang Fan even walked over to the cash register...
Listening to Jin Yexuan's words, I nodded quietly, "I know. I know what I should do." Then, I couldn't help but grin broadly, leaving Jin Yexuan feeling a bit baffled.
I slowly laid out my own reasoning, gave a sarcastic laugh, and thought: Organization, have you now become so clever as to use the tactic of "gritting your teeth and enduring in silence"?
It was the first time Lu Yiyun had received a gift wrapped so exquisitely. The shiny ribbon and colorful paper made the present look like a work of art; she couldn't even bear to unwrap it.
He stopped speaking, but instead applied makeup to Yi Shuihan's face with even greater care. After all, he couldn't let down Yi Shuihan's thought and effort.

The inescapable shackles of fate left Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming, consumed by immense pain, as if suffering in the endless torments of Avici hell.
Gain always comes with loss. Although he acquired some evidence and a Taser, he also lost his drone, Neith, which was unavoidable and the necessary cost to attract the lightning.
Before Zhang Zi'an could fully process what was happening, he saw them pull out a long red banner from their portable bags. The banner had some large characters written on it, though they were too blurry to read.
When a cool breeze gently brushed across the water's surface, a fleeting, narrow strip of silvery foil would instantly appear on the water.
"Huh?" He seemed completely unaware of the changes in his own facial expression. Viewed this way, love is indeed a most wondrous thing—it can make someone inexplicably happy, yet also cause them to fly into an unreasoning rage without even realizing it.
Ye Qiong expressionlessly walked slowly up to Nalan Yanran, then gently lowered his head and glanced at her.
"If you want to fly, you fly. I can't fly anymore!" Zhang Mingang tossed back resentfully, then swept down the mountain without looking back.
Because of military training earlier, the creation of the manga had to be temporarily suspended, but many of the preliminary drafts had already been completed in Zhao Mu's mind.
"Alright, keep praising him and he'll float up to the sky." Lu Jiaxi smiled, beckoning the two of them to follow him indoors.
Zhang Mingyu took out a silver needle, which emitted a blinding, incandescent-lamp-like brilliance in the dim living room, illuminating Ouyang Qingxue's figure in absolute detail, with an inexpressible allure.

A sudden surge of wicked temptation rose in Lin Canghai's heart. Since things had come to this, messing around a bit didn't really matter anymore. Besides, he truly had no other options left at this point.
"This time, I must go!" Elder Rao had recently been researching the art history of Southeast Asia, and now, being tickled with curiosity by this sheepskin scroll, upon hearing Lu Can agree to send someone to track it down, he immediately shouted out.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhang Mingyu saw Jiang Shan staring blankly at him, seemingly with no intention of making way for him to enter.
After Ma Yong finished explaining the truth of the matter to Dawu, Dawu hung up the phone. A few minutes later, Dawu called back again.
This was the Eastern Palace, which was also part of the inner imperial palace, so naturally palace guards were strictly enforced. Constantly, many patrolling guards walked past the courtyard gates.
The group searched around the neighborhood and ended up finding quite a few gold and silver trinkets, agates, and precious gems. If these jewels were converted into silver taels, it would amount to at least tens of thousands.
An accident occurred when Duan Rui went to sit down. The moment he sat his weight down, a "crack" was heard, and the stool shattered into several pieces of broken wood.
Resolving these two families could reduce Lin Chong's income quite a bit. At least that was what he thought; after all, how could a second-generation farmer who made a living selling vegetables not care about the attitude of his business partners?
