Chapter 45: Running Someone Over

The moment he opened his eyes, he hurriedly covered his crotch, looking at Xiao Chun with a face full of vigilance.

Therefore, she decided to take an unconventional path, attempting to defeat Auntie Qin with "sweetness," something neither of them was good at.

Ruan Niansheng felt a wave of helplessness. Looking at his expression, she almost lost control and wanted to help him.

An Wen thought it over and still felt that doing this was not entirely appropriate. His mother had entrusted him with taking good care of his younger sister, yet now, during the first lunar month, he was sending her back home. Doing so would give his mother the impression that he wanted nothing to do with them and wished to avoid further entanglements. That wouldn't be good either. So what should he do?

"Dad! How is my dad? He's going to be fine, right!" Ruan Niansheng was utterly panicked, crying out in helplessness. She kept trying to grab the hands of the nurses rushing in and out, only to be brushed aside coldly every time.

Not linking arms with Lu Chen did not bother Shu Mingzhu much, as she was well aware of Lu Chen's habits.

That year, Ye Sen had just graduated from junior high school. His high school entrance examination scores were mediocre—just enough to get into a mediocre high school, eventually attend a so-so university, and land a so-so job with an average salary after graduation. If Ye Sen, who was still just a child back then, had walked down that path for the rest of his life, it wouldn't have been too bad either.

However, those elders in gray suddenly unleashed fierce gusts of wind that surged straight toward Ye Yutian, forcing him to retreat step by step.

True to being the Defender-General of the State, his expression remained completely unchanged. Even though he was already inside the central boat and on someone else's turf, he still appeared this calm and composed.

Why couldn't she remember when such a thing had happened? Nor could she recall when she had ever agreed to it.

Hearing his words, I felt bewildered. Could it be that I was already dead? I remembered that armored fellow swinging his katana at my head, after which I ended up here. But upon second thought, that didn't make sense—if I were dead, why couldn't I feel any pain?

"No... what on earth are you trying to say? Can you stop beating around the bush?" Zhao Chenggong simply couldn't listen anymore; he was completely baffled.

"Thank you for your understanding, Elder..." Li Si Ming said. In truth, he urgently needed the Woodman's support. After all, the Woodman held a position of towering respect within this team, and having this elder's backing and presence would allow him to carry out what he wanted to do much more securely.

They waited until the hour of the dragon before hearing footsteps in the distance, and a figure walked down from the mountain. Qin Di poked his head out from behind the boulder and saw that the person coming down was dressed in the attire of a miscellaneous chores disciple. Looking closer at his appearance, it was none other than Zhuang Gaoshang, the one who had delivered the false message that day.

Due to the skin color of the indigenous population in this region, almost all expatriate Caucasians transferred here to work shared a similar skin tone.

The man nodded, led us into the building, and finally stopped in front of a door numbered 758. It seemed this was where he lived.

Just as I expected, the entire resort was thrown into a frenzy once again because of my disappearance. The police and the resort security guards turned the place upside down looking for me.

Stepping out from the spacetime portal, his entire body enshrouded in a sacred radiance with only a pair of piercing eyes exposed, Zeus hurriedly erected a sturdy white protective barrier.

Because this was the White Tiger tribe and the Vermilion Bird tribe, featuring two five-star Great Saints. Once a Great Saint reaches the five-star level, their strength increases dramatically, marking a significant milestone.

He Yixuan took me away from the He family. Their concealment method was very similar to the Seven Deadly Sins, both involving the creation of an illusion.
