Volume One, Chapter 29: My Wife, I Miss You
Lu Fengnan did not answer Li Lianhua’s question, only saying, "When Xiaoyuan returns, we must treat her well; we owe that child."
Li Lianhua remained silent, but nodded in agreement.
At noon, as Jiang Yuan, Grandpa Jiang, and Grandma Jiang were halfway through their meal, they heard a knock at the door.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I'll go open it." Jiang Yuan stuffed a bite of food into her mouth before getting up.
"Who is it?" she asked as she walked.
"It’s me," came the voice of Lu Xiuyi from outside the door.
Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and opened the door. Why was he here at this hour?
Hu Yirui tossed her bowling ball back, looked around, and seeing Chi Xue still playing, she spotted Bai Jiang sitting in the back and hurried over.
Gordon studied the sewer map to plan their route, while Brock took responsibility for marking the way; the two cooperated in silent, tacit understanding.
I am the "Witch-Spirit Obsidian Gargoyle," Heichun. He is the "Construct Lapis Lazuli Gargoyle," Qingcui.
Renardo then cast his gaze toward every room in the house, searching for the other person inside.
The man seemed cold-blooded to the extreme, gripping her face forcefully as he poured dark red liquid into her mouth.
Su Yao always held a unique partiality toward Su Yaoyao, as if trying to make up for the twenty years he had been absent.
Even top-tier beings like angels and dragons, upon stepping into the "Tar Moat," would be gradually corroded into skeletons; it was truly terrifying.
Once he had caught up with the target rat again, Bart struck with lightning speed, swooping down to grab it firmly by its fur.
Indeed, this Li Xin was not so easily tempted; she was not at all the person she had appeared to be just a moment ago.
The current strength of the Lord of Angels was built on the premise that all the resources of the throne were tilted toward him alone, but the Lord of the Sun God was also on the verge of a breakthrough. Could it be that he was using the same method?
"Yes," Jian Mofan replied, pulling Yan Mumu to sit opposite Ji Siyue. He took the menu from the side and showed it to Yan Mumu, letting her choose carefully, while also signaling Ji Siyue to order her coffee.
"Be good. I will go and return shortly. Rest assured, Zhizhi, no matter how late it is tonight, I will return to watch you dance," the Emperor said, his eyes filled with smiles and tenderness as he spoke softly to comfort her.
"How insolent! My master is a person beyond the world. Although she resides in the inner palace, she has never concerned herself with its affairs for many years. Since you hold an imperial decree to capture criminals, you should search the palace grounds. To come to my Nianci Nunnery in the dead of night—is that not highly improper?" Nurse Fan’s words were sharp, and she had no intention of opening the door.
"Aunt is here," Qingshuang said with a tranquil smile, hurriedly telling Xiangruo to rise and signaling her to sit on the rosewood chair nearby.
I have never dressed as gorgeously as I did today. I looked at my delicate face in the bronze mirror and the brilliant, vibrant clothing. I touched my cheek, feeling as if this face were not my own.
By now, Ai Xingyu’s eyes were blurred with tears. She could never have imagined that Guo Qin’s refusal to accept the Nameless Divine Sword was actually for her sake, so that she might possess the right to live a life of freedom.
The water shifted, the pool rippling slightly. Accompanied by the soft sound of moving water, ripples expanded outward, causing Qingshuang’s pale pink bodice to float gently up and down. A pair of soft, fragrant breasts were half-hidden beneath the water, and a pair of large hands reached out silently to take hold of them, kneading and rubbing gently.
He had been watching for quite a while, and based on his years of experience in the field of romance, it was definitely something left behind by a female creature.
This time, Chen Hu, crouching in the bushes, was prepared. He leaped forward like a frog, dodging the attack instantly. At the same time, he caught sight of the red figure and discovered it was a parrot.
Zhu Maichen, Bian Tong, and Wang Chao were beheaded at the East Market. The Chancellor, Zhuang Qingdi, could not escape the blame and was imprisoned. Zhuang Qingdi committed suicide in prison.
Her eyes still held the confusion of having just awakened, but they suddenly cleared when they met the man’s face.
