Chapter 128

“How do you know this man is Xu Hongye’s brother?” Pei Qiaonian narrowed his eyes and asked. The world truly is small; just as he was about to investigate, news came from Wei Zhichen’s side.

“I used to collaborate with him. He used Xu Hongye’s reputation to do business in Port City, but he’s actually a deadbeat, drowning in unpaid debts. Later, a project he contracted had a fatal accident. With no money for compensation, the victim’s family came to cause trouble. He then hired someone to beat the old man half to death. The old man’s son—”

“You’ll find out in a few days. Just answer me this: can you buy that parcel of land within a short time?” Ye Yu didn’t explain why but pressed on.

Luo Yu was scrutinizing Anke, who was naturally doing the same. Finding no threat from Luo Yu, Anke silently breathed a sigh of relief.

“No, no, I really don’t have that. Absolutely no masochistic tendencies,” Ye Yu quickly shook his hand after Dao Teng Qilin’s words, showing he had no such inclinations.

There were ten entry points to the arena, but only seven teams today. Each team took an entry point first, then a dedicated vehicle inside the game venue transported them to their starting positions. Once the clock struck 8:30, they’d enter on their own.

Qiu Rong gave a crooked smile, feeling something was off. Then he reached down and grabbed a handful of earth.

Only then did Wang Yun’er realize that this sea expedition not only brought back abundant treasures thanks to her father Wang Lang but also two people.

Originally, Luo Yu planned to choose first-person perspective but wasn’t sure about Sui Bingjie’s skills. So, they decided to play one round in third-person mode first.

At that moment, on the other side, Su Qinfei and Fang Yang were scouting above a forest when suddenly two silver flashes streaked toward them.

Yu Qian had escaped from her Demon God formation and instead of hiding, she caused trouble everywhere. What’s worse, she fixated on her and her family.

Tian Qi closed his eyes to restrain himself and turned away, hoping he had never seen that sword before. The sword carried by that person this afternoon was too tempting for Tian Qi, but he couldn’t afford it, so he gave up.

Qin Feng gave the chief of staff a thumbs up, who smiled proudly and accepted the praise without modesty. Recruiting Yu Yaochen and Sun Ning into Night Hawk took considerable effort from the chief of staff.

Lin Nuannuan glanced at Li Dayong’s family, who looked utterly ashamed, then ignored Daniu and slowly took a sip of tea before setting the cup down again.

That old woman clearly couldn’t stay. Her nagging was one thing, but her reckless tongue would only bring trouble in the future.

Seeing him exhale, Yun Chi snorted coldly. The cultivators surnamed Liao standing nearby shuddered. To them, Yun Chi was like a demon—meeting his gaze felt like being dragged into hell.

Fortunately, there were enough clothes in that cabinet. She hid among the coats hanging there, using the corner of the cabinet to avoid his sight.

Jun Wuju was startled by her calling him “husband.” His face lit up with unstoppable joy, the corners of his mouth lifting so high they seemed about to split.

She knew her thoughts were insane, but as long as there was even a one in ten thousand chance that person was her great-grandfather, she felt uneasy.

Hong Kong was small to begin with, and with his influence, he could easily seal off the entire area.

“Wait, send your account details to my phone. I’ll transfer the money directly,” Ji Anqi said.

Outside the door, Wang Shou, Wang Ya, and Han Qing exchanged worried glances. Su Yang’s voice sounded weak, but the door couldn’t be opened. The three could only stand guard to prevent any accidents.

Gu Huizhu wanted to have a long conversation with her to understand her true thoughts. But Gu Zhenzhu was already in so much pain; making her recount everything from the start would only cause more suffering.
