Yan Jinxi seemed to have finally caught Mo Qinghan's wavelength. Adjusting her tone, she assumed a deliberately fierce voice and said, "Murong An, your man beat my man into such a state. Shouldn't you give me a reasonable explanation?"

Mo Qinghan cooperated seamlessly and replied, "I wonder what kind of explanation Miss Yan is looking for."

"Tomorrow at 10:00 AM, Zoo Cafe. Be there or be square."

"Alright, I'm hanging up."

After hanging up, Mo Qinghan tossed her phone aside, looked at her newly organized wardrobe with a very satisfied nod, and turned to look at He Zheyu, who wore a serious expression. "Feng San, still hasn't been found?"

He Zheyu casually stretched out and lay down on the bed, propping his head with one arm, slightly...

In the distance, a "killer-pink" Ferrari Enzo sports car was slowly driving toward Desheng Building. Leaving aside the fact that the downstairs was a pedestrian street where very few people could drive in anyway, just looking at that Enzo—of which there were only a handful in the entire China—Cui Xiaoyan knew instantly that the person arriving was Tong Lanjun.

Right while Sister Momo was lecturing Li Yan with a deadpan expression, desperately pumping him full of cliché inspirational advice, several police cars drove directly into the parking area of the golf course. Immediately following that, a rapid succession of car doors opening and closing echoed sharply through the air.

The pity was that current technological levels were still incapable of producing nano-sized covert recording equipment, otherwise Yu Ying wouldn't have bothered coming inside at all. Yet, upon second thought, if technology were truly that advanced, it would likely bring endless trouble. Living under constant surveillance every single moment would be deeply uncomfortable, feeling no different from being in prison.

"Let her scold away. If a person has true ability, they will resort to physical action rather than verbal abuse, which just shows she has reached the end of her wits," Yu Ying said.

As dusk gradually fell, Zachary Schuler took a few steps, turned back, and wanted to call out to Trelawney once more.

After building a position at the bottom, they would use market capital to drive prices upward, adding fuel to the fire at the appropriate moment. When prices surged to a high level, they would initiate another round of upward pushing. Before reaching the heavy resistance zone above, unloading their shares entirely onto retail investors who rushed into the market hoping to make a quick buck was a foolproof strategy.

"So you're planning to stay for a long time this time? You even brought your personal chef. Will you still be staying in your old dormitory?" Sofina asked.

"Kill!" Li Jing wore a ferocious expression as he brandished his broadsword and charged forward, followed closely by thousands of cavalrymen who erupted into a series of roaring battle cries.

Consequently, in the departments where those absent leaders worked, the primary and deputy heads instantly found themselves standing on opposite sides. How did that old saying go again?

Hearing this, Zhao Xianzong did not reply. Instead, with a flash, he darted toward a nearby cave.

A piercing, miserable screech echoed through the dense forest, carrying a pain so palpable it felt shared. Looking back at the scene, among the six massive, trailing tails of the Six-Tailed Demon Fox, one had been severed right down to the base. A faint mist of spray blood was sent flying, and the colossal body of the fox was already stained crimson.

Gu Yuxuan watched from the side, desperately wanting to applaud Tong Nan's thick-skinned cluelessness. Gong Yu's expression of utter disgust was already so blatant, yet Tong Nan remained utterly carefree and completely unfazed! She didn't know whether to praise her for having a great mental attitude or curse her for lacking a brain. Gu Yuxuan shook her head helplessly and turned to walk into the kitchen to help out.

It took a full hour, shifting time from noon to afternoon. Ming Tian and An Luo finally managed to piece everything together through joint effort, yet the resulting object far exceeded all imagination.

As the vanguard, Sun Ce needed to clear the canyon first. He responded, "I will lead three thousand elite cavalrymen in the front. Once we have crossed more than half of the canyon, we will launch a full-speed breakout."

That burly man looked nothing like a man, his face turning pale with terror. Immediately afterward, he was met with a stream of blistering curses from Yin Chan that completely shattered her usual image.

Sensing that intense arrow intent locking onto them—an icy chill that penetrated deep into the soul and felt capable of freezing one's very consciousness—the remaining Golden Crows instantly changed their expressions and cried out in alarm.

"Two choices: one, I take the person by force; two, you release the person yourselves and I let you leave. There is no third option. You have three seconds." What Ming Meiyan was worried about right now was not whether they had harmed Jing Luoyi, but rather what kind of drug they had used to knock her out. If it were ordinary ether, she should have woken up long ago.
