Chapter 145: The Bed Collapsed

Lin Lu only then noticed him, turning back to acknowledge him with a nod. Xu Mingchuan shifted his gaze away from her; her legs were so fair and shapely that lingering on them for too long was enough to make a man lose his composure.

The milk was heated, and Lin Lu picked it up to make room for Xu Mingchuan. "I'm done; you can use the space now."

"Right." He had come to squeeze juice for He Rujing, holding two fresh oranges in his hand.

...

When Yu Ze stepped into the Hai Corporation, he felt a flicker of trepidation. Whether he could achieve his revenge in the future depended heavily on this very step.

After processing the medicinal pills, Ye Fei returned to his room. He first checked on the Undying Grass, though he still couldn't refine the Heavenly Origin Pill yet, as the rest of the spirit herbs had yet to be gathered.

Li Bai shuddered, feeling the sudden warmth before him, astonished that this was… actually real?

Upon receiving the new mission, Chen Mo’s perception of the system improved significantly. The system had become increasingly rational, sometimes even profound, unlike before when it would issue absurd tasks like helping people cross the street or poking a hornet's nest. Ever since he gained access to hell-tier mission permissions, the task descriptions within the system had taken on a whole new look.

The mobile phone slipped out of Hu Haijun's pocket. Tong Lu, who was already connected to the line, saw the screen suddenly go black and heard the sounds of a struggle on the other end. Realizing something had gone wrong, he called out his name while ordering Old Lei to connect him to the surveillance feed.

His eyelashes were long, casting a shadow over his eyelids, and his nose was high and straight. Even with his eyes closed, his charm remained undiminished.

Domestic public security was excellent, but due to the sheer size of the population, crimes still occurred every day. He wasn't a police officer and had no obligation to intervene in such matters. Moreover, the Players' Kingdom was an organization he was fundamentally powerless to oppose; even if he intervened, it wouldn't change anything. Chen Mo tried hard to convince himself.

As soon as the fatty walked through the door, he saw the beauty gazing at him, her bright, watery eyes seeming to speak for themselves.

Jin Rujie offered a faint smile, lit a cigarette with a vintage lighter, and took a drag. As she exhaled, she held the cigarette between two slender, delicate fingers and tilted her head to look out the window.

They didn't know whether Gu Suhua was truly a successor, but fearing that she might overthink things, they all let Gu Suhua go into Ye Fei's bedroom.

Now that she had finally met the person in question, Ada felt a sense of disappointment. Clearly, Luo Yi did not give her the impression of someone capable of designing that outfit. Yet, the design bore the seal of the God of Knowledge, which meant the design was indeed created by him.

Hearing that Fu Xueyi didn't even know who the opponent was, Li Daoxuan hurriedly put away the Demon Emperor's blood and led his generals out of the hotel, stopping only when they reached the entrance.

He had been hiding in the shadows just moments ago, watching Green Ripples ambush and kill Huang Ling and Mother Wang. He had assumed Green Ripples had merely employed some underhanded tactics and that her own cultivation was not worth mentioning.

"There are some intimate scenes in this film, and I find it quite awkward. I didn't know who the actor was at first, and I never expected it to be you, brother. It has left me not knowing what to do," Liu Ye sighed and said.

"Long live His Majesty, long live, long live, ten thousand years." Bai Yu was awakened by the sound of ten thousand people prostrating themselves. Upon opening his eyes, all he could see were thousands of black heads bowed before him.

The villagers loved to speculate. Some said Waifa had lived long enough, stumbled to the well, dove in, and died. Others claimed his wife no longer wanted to wait on him, led him to the well, and pushed him in. Some even whispered that his wife was having an affair, found him to be an obstacle, killed him, and dumped him inside.

He did not look down on Lin Xuan because of his plain clothes or youth, but instead treated him with the enthusiasm one would show a god. Whether Lin Xuan bought anything or not, the service was absolutely impeccable.
