After he carefully looked through his night-vision goggles, he was shocked to discover that the object was actually a rectangular glass box.

"You are mistaken; my appearance has always been this way. Furthermore, this is the first time I have ever met you, so how could I have transformed into your likeness?" Ning Yuyan toyed with the jade flute in her hand, watching Chu Mo with an amused expression.

"Miss Rong, what are you talking about?" Shuang'er was truly blushing after hearing Qu Wurong's words. Turning to look at her, she said, "Miss Rong, you must be tired. I will go prepare your meal right away." With that, Shuang'er hurried off as if fleeing.

Originally, she hadn't intended for Qu Wurong to merely serve as a widow at her brother's funeral; she had wanted Qu Wurong to be buried alive with Ouyang Xu, thereby removing this thorn in her side forever.

Yu Xie rubbed her hands together in anticipation and excitedly opened the silver lid, revealing a piece of snow-white, jade-like carved... meat?

"It wasn't you?" Hearing him say this, the Imperial Noble Consort was also confused. The letter Qu Wurong had given her clearly stated that the Crown Prince had asked her for help, which was why she agreed to help her escape the palace. So, was the reality not like that at all? What exactly was going on?

Now that my identity has been exposed, and since I have the ability to protect myself, so be it.

She struggled to see the owner of those hands clearly, but a thick white mist kept lingering before her eyes, no matter how hard she tried, she could not make them out.

To ensure the child would be born healthy and safe, Shen Wu'an specifically arranged for the most senior and skilled doctor in the Imperial Hospital, Old Doctor Liu, to monitor Qu Wurong's pregnancy. He was tasked with checking their pulses every single day without fail until the day the child was born.

The bathroom door was usually left open, and Ran Tao carried Wu Xiumin on his shoulder with one hand while opening the wooden bathroom door with the other.

In the past, it was always Han Zhenxuan who went to Saint-Ertai to harass Guan Yunqiao, but today, he was the one being grabbed by the collar and hauled up by a furious Guan Yunqiao, who was interrogating him under duress.

He had come today because he had managed to get Luo Yuling to take the Heart-Unity Pill that Cui'er had given him, so he wanted to see if the pill was truly as miraculous as Cui'er had claimed.

That day, when Gu Hanlie received a report that she had been seen heading toward Yinshi Mountain, he rushed there, but he found no one—only a scene of ruins.

As a celebrity, one must be responsible for everything they say in any situation, even when at home with their partner; if someone captures it on camera, there are consequences to face.

Luo Qingyue smiled and pulled Luo Yu inside, but suddenly, her body shuddered; she thought she had just heard someone calling her name.

And so, one person and one pet—one holding a fire starter, the other igniting the flame—soon had the perfectly good room engulfed in a raging fire.

"Damn it! No reaction?" He swore and turned his gaze toward Sakai Hideko.

"Chief, you have gone to great lengths. Thank you for your warm hospitality." Ye Qingcheng stood up, offering a cryptic, faint smile. She bowed slightly to show respect before striding out of the private room.

Being young and vigorous, at the exact moment Liu Bei’s female sword was about to pierce Zhang Xiu’s chest, Zhang Xiu’s saber was also poised to slash upward, aiming for Liu Bei’s jaw and face.

Yet, to his surprise, even after that night when he had taken her with a hint of force, he still found himself longing for her.

The faces of the crowd darkened visibly. Lin Tian was mocking them; if their hearts were still with the Lin family, they wouldn't dare utter a sound even if Lin Tian beat or scolded them. But since their hearts were no longer with the Lin family, every word Lin Tian spoke sounded like a rebuke to their ears.

The two men beside him, despite having arrows pointed at them, saw their panic fade significantly. They didn't even glance at their companion who had groaned and fallen after being shot; they simply focused on skillfully retrieving the heavy bows from their backs, nocking arrows, and taking aim.

"Sister, the teacher and the Dean have been waiting for a long time. Let's go over first." Du Linlin made a swift decision, appealing to her own sister to persuade Du Weifeng.

Lin Tian's fate was the same as Lu Hu's, but Lin Tian was not as fragile. Although that punch had struck his artery, it didn't cause him to lose consciousness from a lack of blood flow.

In Huahai City and the Western Regions, the Oriental Aoki Group spared no expense to illegally mine molybdenum. Based on international prices, the ore they were stealing wasn't worth nearly that much. So, what was the Aoki Group really after?

Qiao Zhi looked over, puzzled. Zhang Yao only instructed, "Remember clearly: Wuling Academy." As he spoke, he walked away at the sound of Mrs. Zhou's voice, boarded the carriage, and bid farewell to Qiao Cheng and Mrs. Zhang.

Ding Ding arrived fashionably late, and as soon as she entered the studio, she saw that everyone was in a state of chaos. Some were checking data, others were contacting material suppliers—all of them were busy working for her "ten million."

Seeing Ji Ying approach, the crowd parted. They watched as Ji Ying touched something on the wall, seemingly just brushing it, and suddenly, countless grids appeared on the previously smooth surface, arranged neatly like a nine-grid puzzle.

"President An, this Situ Xuan must be a very important person to you, right?" Shi Nuo didn't know why, but her curiosity was particularly piqued today.

A Jiu nodded. "That's no wonder. I didn't even notice whether you were asleep or not after I brought the flowers in. I had originally intended to paint a portrait of a beauty sleeping in spring, but as it turns out..." A waste of so many petals.

"I wasn't scared. It's just that you seemed very angry earlier, so I wanted to wait a moment before speaking to you." Qian Qian, having calmed down, looked at Tang Yu and answered with great composure.

Inside the Abbot's meditation room, sandalwood incense curled through the air as Master Xuanming played a game of Go against an elder who possessed the graceful air of a Taoist immortal.

"No, that's not it. Boss, you don't really mean you don't want to be King, do you!" At one point, when Jin Shangyu uttered those words, Zhui Feng looked at him with a look of utter bewilderment.

Some even gave a thumbs up, their admiration beyond words. And so, time slipped away in this strange, quiet tension.

"Child, go and meditate." The Grand Uncle-Master strode toward Qian Qian, forming a spell with his hands and casting a technique directly at the demonic creatures outside the sword formation.
