Chapter 66 New Clothes
Hearing a few idle remarks from Qin Gang and Wang Dali, Father Su hurried over to find his daughter. "Xiaoqiao, did you hear what Qin Gang and Wang Dali were saying?"
"Dad, I heard it. Don't worry, I have a backup plan. Take both bags of rice with you."
"All right then. We can't let them leave empty-handed; it wouldn't be proper etiquette."
"Dad, you can rest assured. I've prepared plenty of ingredients."
"All right, you must keep a clear head about—"
With a fierce look in her eyes, Qingge grabbed Ji Qingfeng by the neck, shifted her footing, spun around, and abruptly slammed him to the ground.
Her heart tightened involuntarily as she cast a cold glance at Ximen Bei. Her palms were sweating profusely, trickling down like falling rain. Her unusual state was noticed by the surrounding officers, who frowned in confusion—their lord had never been so uncomposed before. Just what kind of person could be putting this much pressure on him?
However, shortly after diving deeper, we suddenly heard several muffled sounds from outside the Hachiman ship, as if the hull had grazed against something. At first, the ship's speed remained unaffected, but soon it was violently yanked backward by a tremendous force. All of us were sent rolling forward by inertia, bumping into things until our faces were bruised and noses swollen.
Twenty minutes later, I arrived at the Sports University competition venue. I first collected my admission pass, and shortly after, Fatty Wang and Big Love's group appeared in the players' locker room wearing matching athletic uniforms.
"I heard tomorrow is the day of the fan meeting. Are you ready, Ruxuan?!" The voice carried a mocking edge, grating harshly against Liu Ruxuan's ears. Watching Liu Ruxuan's brow furrow sharply, Liu Huanyue felt an immense sense of delight.
Due to prolonged evolution and a lack of practical application, some Chinese folk martial arts have become more performance-oriented than combat-ready. Lacking sufficient sparring and resistance training, what was once Tai Chi has now turned into Tai Chi fitness calisthenics. While its health benefits are decent, it becomes utterly useless in actual combat.
"President Bai went out to meet an important client. Since it's getting late, President Bai asked me to come and fetch you." Lisa's attitude toward Gu Yingge was icy—or to use a more neutral term, strictly dutiful.
Qiao Ruolan was enduring it, her fists clenched tightly inside her sleeves. Of course, she would have loved nothing more than to give Xiao Ni a hard slap across the face.
During the few seconds Luo Mu spent pondering, the Moltres seemed to finally figure out the trick. Its flying energy transformed into a Brave Bird blazing with passionate azure flames, enveloping its entire body. Paying the price of several deep new wounds, the Moltres mustered its full strength and, with the momentum of an eagle soaring through the vast sky, forcefully broke through the domain of wind.
Lu Yingxue, who was usually used to having the final say, did not dare to raise her voice in front of Lin Feng. Everyone began to speculate about Lin Feng's identity, and the two employees who had just cursed Lin Feng as a lunatic started to worry whether they would be fired.
Upon arriving at the artisan family's estate, Yunran saw from afar that someone had already sneaked in ahead of her.
However, technological development does not happen overnight. The industrial foundation required for firearms and artillery still falls a bit short in the Great Tang, and bridging that gap is a long journey.
He truly never expected that the creature's reason for poisoning was simply because the person who abandoned it wore clothing similar to those worn on the farm. Driven purely by this rationale and a desire for revenge, it had chosen to poison them.
From beginning to end, Zhang Jianjun uttered not a single word of complaint. He had witnessed everything, yet in the current state of affairs, he was powerless to stop it.
She had long since expected that a thorough beating upon meeting was inevitable, but seeing her son looking like this made her heart soften once again. Needless to say, Liao Shishan possessed formidable strength; he could toss a full-grown person into the air and catch them as if they were a toy. If he had truly intended to beat him harshly, he could have shattered Liao Xiuzhang's backside to pieces.
