Chapter 177: Wheel Within a Wheel 1
Hiding under the quilt, Mo Qinghan heard He Zheyu's particularly inappropriate remark. She slowly poked her head out from the covers, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "He Zheyu, can you please stop filling your head with dirty thoughts..."
Seeing that Mo Qinghan's pale face from yesterday had regained a hint of color, and her fair cheeks were now flushed with a slight blush because of his words, He Zheyu wrapped his slender arms around her and pulled her along with the quilt straight into his embrace. He rested his chin against Mo Qinghan's forehead and said softly, "Girl, haven't I taken you to pay respects to my mother yet?"
Mo Qinghan asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up today..."
"Nothing much, just wanted to take you to pay your respects."
"Your..."
Although Sun Ying had previously hired people from the Black Wind Gang to harass her, back then she was just a good-for-nothing about to lose her official position.
In contrast, Shi Ye felt somewhat nervous, afraid that the food wouldn't suit his taste, and also somewhat unaccustomed to sharing a table with the big CEO.
Fang Yaqi expressed her desire to thoroughly explore the central district. Lin Manman had originally wanted to go look for some suitable gear, but upon second thought, the competition prize money wasn't much, so she decided not to waste money on such unnecessary things. Thus, she chose to go out with Fang Yaqi to look around.
Meng Changdong hadn't visited Meng Ling for several days. Ever since he settled his younger sister at Jiang Shuya's place, he had felt a sense of relief.
Hearing the Empress's words, Li Lulu felt even more aggrieved in her heart and ignored the Emperor for the entire night.
"That's fine. Just give the list to your second cousin, and he'll have the people brought right over to you," Tang Jingshen said.
Contracting an extra spiritual pet undoubtedly increased one's combat strength by another notch. If it could cooperate well with other spirit beasts, its worth could not simply be evaluated by individual combat power alone.
Qin Jiuyue sat dazed at the dining table. When Ou Yucheng called out to her, she didn't react at all.
After she finished speaking, with a look of resignation as if facing death, she grabbed a rock hold and started climbing upward. Just as she reached the four-meter mark, she lost her grip and was abruptly lowered down by the safety rope with a rustling sound.
Sanniang had just reported the latest news to Shang Lu when he lifted a beef-tail saber in one hand, raised the scabbard overhead with the other, and lunged swiftly toward the location where Gao Su was.
However, seeing how spirited and brightly gleaming his eyes were, he truly didn't look like he was in a sickly state. Everyone was somewhat curious about the old master's inner thoughts, but at this moment, no one continued to persuade him.
Perhaps feeling a bit weak, Lin Jiancheng lay down on the edge of the couch and fell into a deep sleep not long after.
Old Madam Lu looked at her son's hand, which he refused to let go of. She thought about it and decided to let it go—she wouldn't argue with him. Who asked him to be a late bloomer in matters of the heart?
Having not seen each other for nearly two weeks, when Nan Zhou stood before him once again, Huo Xingye's mood instantly brightened.
Steward Shao had tossed the chamber pot out so suddenly that it unexpectedly struck Granny Zhao's ankle, and the filth from the chamber pot splattered all over half of Granny Zhao's body.
Hearing the words "last night," Ye Shengge's face turned red, and instinctively she looked toward Lu Shiyan.
Seeing that they were all mounting their cameras, they now held their cameras with one hand while turning their heads to stare straight back at her.
Tan Lin glanced over and noticed that what appeared in this guy's Douyin video was the appearance of Xiang Youya.
Liu Bian remained stunned for a moment, then carefully examined the piece of white paper. He saw that what was drawn on it was actually the territory of the Great Han, vast beyond measure, yet outside of it were many places that Liu Bian knew nothing about.
To be honest, prior to this, Gan Quan had already begun submitting resumes to look for a backup plan, because no one dared to pin their hopes on an undergraduate student who hadn't even graduated yet.
If he hadn't left! Perhaps uncle wouldn't have died! Relying on his own strength, he definitely could have protected uncle. Thinking of this, Fanyu slowly raised his hand. His eyes flickered slightly at that moment.
"I don't know about that, but I know that at least he can pour tea and water for me, and help me carry my luggage," Fuyun Nuan said with a solemn expression as she looked at Yu Pianpian.
"Too simple! But if it's just about getting rid of you, perhaps it's already enough!" When he reached this point, Fanyu smiled slightly.
