Chapter 105: A Pleasant Collaboration

Li Xiaobao was pleased by Wang Jianshu’s words; he knew that with Wang Jianshu’s assistance, his plan to deal with Lin Yu would proceed much more smoothly.

However, he did not immediately reveal his specific plan, deciding instead to first test Wang Jianshu’s strength and determination.

“Chairman Wang, you said that Lin Yu caused your son to end up bedridden—what illness did he contract? Was it really connected to Lin Yu?” Li Xiaobao suddenly asked.

He had to change his parents’ mindset, make them accept the reality that he was becoming increasingly capable of earning money. Otherwise, if five thousand yuan could cause so much anxiety, what about fifty thousand, or five hundred thousand in the future?

She had never imagined that Kou Xi would knit a sweater for Huo An, because in her eyes, Huo An was extremely frugal in the army; clothes, shoes, hats, socks were all issued by the state, so there was no need for the family to worry.

After listening, Guangchen sighed. Most people are ignorant, fearful of the unknown; it is a consequence of the times and cannot be blamed on others.

Liang Chuan himself had not expected that there would be someone like this in Rong City, quietly watching him all along.

Before long, Qingwen felt her limbs lose all strength, her stomach roiled violently, and though she wanted to vomit, nothing would come out.

Because those beast iron clamps were rusted and filthy, once embedded in flesh, they naturally left behind grime. Seeing the unconscious middle-aged man’s worsening lethargy and flushed face, Qingwen knew something was wrong—it was the sign of infection, the body beginning to heat up.

Of course, even without practicing the knight’s breathing technique, Roel’s body, under the lingering effects of the medicine, would be subtly strengthened. For example, growing younger with each passing day—this would become Roel’s standard appearance from now on.

The Gerlant Mountains: the Grant family’s stronghold in the Holy Sword Empire. A colossal floating island hovered above the highest peak, overseeing the world from its lofty perch.

In the apocalypse, it was perfectly normal for Awakened ones to rely on their strength, eat without paying, and even ransack the restaurant on their way out.

The reason Guangchen didn’t want to take the train was that he wished to keep his movements concealed. His previous actions in Z City had certainly caught the attention of some observant eyes.

At this moment, Shen Jingzhong was covered in wounds, blood mingling with saltwater, making his injuries burn as if scorched by fire.

Apparently, just patting his head wasn’t enough; unable to compare, her hand slid beneath the quilt, feeling Watanabe’s body heat.

Although Dongjiang University didn’t conduct dorm inspections, the main gate closed at eleven-thirty in the evening, and now it was nearly eleven.

“Has anyone seen my necklace? My priceless necklace is missing!” Zhang Yingying anxiously searched, head bowed.

Wangchuan lay deep beneath the ocean’s surface; though called Wangchuan, in truth it was an underwater fissure.

So the old lady was convinced it was the fault of the two young women, and thus found a beautiful and youthful replacement to show them up.

Within the temporal rift, the turbulent streams were as sharp as blades, slicing past her side. Yet before they could touch her, they dissipated completely.
