Jiang Ying patted her chest, secretly relieved that she had not returned too late, and then said to Mother Jiang, "Mom, younger brother doesn't agree with this matter, and now I don't agree either. Pingping is still young, and I want her to go out and see the world, rather than being like me in my twenties, lacking even the basic understanding that a flush toilet is just an outhouse."

To persuade her mother, Jiang Ying vividly and colorfully described what she had seen and heard in Dongguan, as well as its prosperity. To spare her mother unnecessary worry, she omitted the twists and turns of her journey.

Having lost her husband early on, the single-mother household made Mother Jiang extremely cautious in everything she did, always trying to avoid bringing trouble upon the family. Seeing Jiang Ying go all the way to Dongguan...

Xu Yang's somewhat drifting voice came from behind. Leaning against the car door, Xu Yang gazed at everything before him with absent eyes.

Her fingertips traced gently over those words, her smiling eyes filled with deep tenderness and lingering affection.

This was the finest flute music she had ever heard. Without any flashy techniques, simply and plainly playing a melody like this, yet it made one want to weep.

Looking at the scene before her, Qiao Chu widened her eyes, completely dumbfounded and stupefied, her jaw almost dropping to the ground.

As for Tang Wan, the new head of the Tang family who had assumed office for less than half a month, her performance had previously been flawless, but now she was facing a true test.

It wasn't until the handsome young man walked away with the two bouquets of flowers until he disappeared from sight that they finally snapped back to their senses... Did they forget to collect the money? It seemed the handsome young man had given them money! It seemed they had repeatedly said they didn't need it...

Lina's originally pretty, large eyes were squeezed into mere slits, and her lips had swollen into sausage lips. She muttered a few words without offering a verbal retort.

A grayish-white egg lay amidst a pile of beast cores, bearing pale golden markings on its shell. Compared to the dazzling, colorful beast cores surrounding it, the surface of the eggshell was dull and drab, looking rather dusty and gray.

Unexpectedly, the moment he turned back, a foot lashed out toward him. Fortunately, his reflexes were sharp, and he dodged it in time.

"You died a thousand years ago, everything has long since vanished like smoke in the mirror, everyone has long turned into a handful of dust, and all grievances and grudges have long been brought into the cycle of reincarnation. Given this, do you think there is still any meaning in clinging to this obsession?" Yan Xiangnan asked her in return.

Mu Yu felt a wave of relief in his heart, thinking it was some unreasonable request—what kind of favor was this after all?

Ye Feng lightly tapped Zhao Che on the shoulder, and Zhao Che immediately jumped up with a yelp, just like a dog whose tail had been stepped on.

Yi Zhuofeng instinctively felt that the wound on his chest had torn open and festered. He was on the verge of vomiting blood, yet he forcefully suppressed it.

Injections, lab tests, and oxygen all cost money. Without money, no nurse would administer an injection to Tang Xiaolan, regardless of the prescription written by the doctor.

Some customers chose to stay inside the ice cream shop to eat, while many others took their ice cream to go, eating as they walked.

Mu Yu had been the first to know that a wave of chill was coming and had prepared for it well in advance, so the invasion of this chill did not affect him much.

Abomia packed away the meal boxes, poured Elizabeth another glass of water, and fetched a cotton quilt from the wardrobe, preparing to make a bed on the floor.

Yufeng was extremely satisfied with the effects of the Earth Dragon Pill; as long as she circulated it, her defensive power would be passively and drastically enhanced.

"President Lu is certainly visionary. Your company is also developing software, right? And you're dealing with reagent consumables as well." Chairman Wang didn't bother to consider the difficulties of implementing it; what occupied his mind were the potential benefits Lu Tao's proposal could bring.

Nor was he here to cause trouble; he genuinely wished to join the Party, and in his eyes, Li Hong truly possessed the qualifications to sponsor him.

Qingyun tilted her head to dodge the bandit's hand. Realizing their intent, she couldn't be bothered to exchange empty pleasantries with them, gracefully rolling out of the attacker's range, her peripheral vision catching the astonishment on the bandit's face.

Cangbai's expression shifted drastically as he pivoted. Opening his optical brain space, a silver shield materialized behind his back.

After beginning to practice martial arts, he became even more uninhibited, thriving in the third battalion where military law was practically nonexistent.

"Since I cannot accompany Your Highness, old Lü has two matters to entrust to Your Highness," Lü Piaoyao said with deep concern.

The houses in the Wumo Stronghold were of roughly uniform height, allowing one to overlook the surroundings from the rooftops, as well as spot distant movements. More importantly, it ensured one wouldn't get turned around and lost.
