64 "A Pill"

The children were full of enthusiasm. Before dinner was ready, they made three trips back and forth, moving all sorts of miscellaneous items to the old family residence, leaving only the large pieces such as beds, desks, and trunks filled with clothes and shoes.

Before leaving home for the old house, Lin Zhao filled the dog bowl with kibble, stroked Da Huang’s head, and said, "Da Huang, you and Amber stay here for now. I’ll bring you back to the old house tonight."

You could really say Da Huang understood human nature; it merely rubbed its head against Lin Zhao's leg and then went to show off to its pup.

Upon hearing that Jian Yun was unable to come due to some matters, the disappointment on Xue Gao's face could no longer be concealed.

The interactions between him and Zhao Ying, as well as those between Zhao Naiming and Zhao Ying, were no longer matters of great importance in the imperial court of the capital today.

"He's just a friend of mine, someone I've known for a very long time. Since we happened to run into each other here in Ancheng, we're just looking out for one another," Jian Yun said nonchalantly.

Director Fu was hesitating when Officer Wang came over to report that the suspect had already been taken to the detention room.

In CLAIRE's world, titles and magic rings were a form of dignity for a magician; they were symbols of their lives and an innate mission.

Usually, Fu Yuan would spend more time chatting with the old lady. Perhaps, in an unguarded moment, the old lady might let slip some useful clues.

"Is it really that terrifying?" Luo Ming could not help feeling somewhat shocked by Jing Tian's words. One must know that breaking the shackles of the universe was no easy feat. Why did the Tribulation of Origin Destruction have to annihilate all living beings in the universe? Wasn't it precisely to shatter those cosmic shackles?

Hearing Shen Yuyan say this, the people around her all wore expressions of shock. They had never known that Shen Yuyan was capable of taking such matters to heart. Previously, they had only seen her hiding in the background, unaware of what she was doing. Now it seemed they had all misjudged her.

Seeing this scene, Yang Di let out a scream. Everyone on the entire floor was startled by the occupants of this private room. They rushed over to find out what was happening, but seeing someone causing trouble in the KTV, they dared not step forward and could only watch quietly from a distance.

Previously, because Song Yuqing had few fans, public opinion was almost entirely one-sided, but now it was beginning to show a balanced momentum. Likewise, this advertisement was rapidly shared and viewed by more people, who were then utterly awestruck by the performances of Song Yuqing and Qi Yi.

Luo Zhengkun was an old fox accustomed to all kinds of situations; even when Lin Bixiao played her cards completely out of convention, he remained calm and collected. In contrast, Luo Qiran's concealment was not nearly as proficient.

She looked up instinctively, only to be frightened by Gu Mo's downcast eyes, as well as the bone-chilling coldness and fury raging through his entire body.

"For the Emperor to say such a thing makes this old subject feel utterly unworthy. How could this old subject possibly have the audacity to harbor such malicious intentions?" Shang Zhou said in great shock, his head, streaked with half-white hair, bowing lower and lower.

At this rate, no other spiritual energy could be infused into her; her meridians could no longer endure even the slightest trace of spiritual power.

However, since they were all fellow villagers, they wouldn't completely burn bridges, though a subtle barrier of estrangement undoubtedly remained between them. People, after all, would often go to any lengths for the sake of money. Otherwise, how else could the old saying come to be: "Birds die in pursuit of food, and men die in pursuit of wealth"?

Although rumors in the company about her relying on a powerful man to climb the ladder never ceased, Lin Bixiao herself had no intention of making those rumors a reality.

On the other side was the massive Gu Corporation, luxurious villas, an enormous financial empire, and bodyguards dedicated to protecting her.

"I didn't provoke her! She used Chen Ying's phone to send me a WeChat message and tricked me, which is why I fell for it!" Lu Yan argued forcefully.

At this moment, Wan Yu raised her blade and pointed it directly at Hu Qing. Seeing Hu Qing leisurely pull two pitch-black iron balls from his pocket, Wan Yu flicked her wrist before he could speak, sending her blade slashing toward Hu Qing's throat.
