Volume 1, Chapter 43: The Young Marquis Treats You Quite Differently

Liao Jingxin widened her eyes with a ferocious expression, then bared her teeth and clawed as she lunged forward. Who would have thought that Ji Ziming would nimbly dodge aside and follow up with a swift whip strike directly at her.

However, when Shen Chengren looked at Xu Lin, he appeared very calm—so calm as if nothing had ever existed between them. Facing such a reaction from Shen Chengren, Xu Lin could only offer a polite greeting while letting the emotions inside her churn violently.

Amidst her daze, Sheng Mingzhu noticed that Xuanyuan Yi had caught sight of her gaze out of the corner of his eye, causing her to awkwardly withdraw her look.

Her heart felt gray and somewhat cold. Subconsciously, she tightened her coat around herself. Outside the window, a thin mist still drifted. Beside her ears, Kang Qiao's calm yet somewhat anxious voice was still echoing.

Hong Yi stood with her protruding belly, peering out the doorway. Finally seeing the two figures returning in the distance, she let out a sigh of relief, then turned back to call out to Xia Huanfeng to quickly prepare the wild hare they had caught.

Di Qing did not answer, merely blinking as she pondered his recent reaction. She could not comprehend why he had appeared in Western Xia, why he knew Li Yuanhao, and even called him master?

No matter what, she was his younger sister. Even if she had done something wrong, he still could not bear to scold her too harshly. In the end, he could only choose to endure it silently and offer his help without a word.

At this moment, she regretted giving this man hope. She did not know whether the decision she had made was right or wrong. Yet her heart leaned toward leaving with Xuanyuan Yi. Her reason told her she must not. She still had her Qi'er. She still had this realm. In the end, she could not let go. Thinking of this, she burst into tears once more.

He neatly arranged his garments and put on a beaming expression of joy. Even though he could not act with his own hands, didn't he still have a single chess piece? This one piece alone would be enough to overturn the entire game.

Sun Yueyao tilted her head, revealing what she believed to be her most flattering profile, ensuring that when the man inadvertently lowered his gaze, he would see her soft, delicate, and shy side, which was bound to arouse a man's protective instincts.

Some speculated that Yu Qian had fallen in love with Feng Jingrui at first sight, which was why she voluntarily conceded defeat to leave a good impression on her beloved, carrying a hint of marrying a chicken if you follow a chicken, marrying a dog if you follow a dog.

Driven by the recoil, Bai Qi was also sent flying backward. Having completely exhausted his physical strength, he had no energy left to stop himself and could only let his body be thrown through the air.

The cotton-padded jackets hanging inside the house were completely dry, with no obvious traces of being drenched by the rain. However, the milk-yellow cotton-padded jacket that had been soaked could not be taken out to sell, as it bore very obvious signs of having been washed, and people would surely mistake it for second-hand goods.

"Do you think I have any reason to tell you? And is it even something I can tell you?" Qin Wu gazed at Misha with a profound look.

Yinguo Cang was caught off guard and instantly struck in the chest by Shaoyang's palm. The immense force penetrated through him, and profound though Yinguo Cang's cultivation realm was, his chest instantly ruptured. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Although simple and seemingly entirely dependent on luck, it was actually a game that tested a person's powers of observation, while also allowing verbal guidance and psychological suggestion to secure victory.

Oddly enough, the coffee shop was very crowded today. Most people were playing with their phones, leaving their coffees sitting in front of them untouched. Even more people were watching us, sizing us up from head to toe.

Xu Nana, while trying on clothes upstairs, took in their every move through the floor-to-ceiling window.

"The American Scientific Research Bureau learned about the Angela-enhanced genes and attempted to misappropriate them for themselves. However, what they did not know was that the Angela-enhanced gene was developed specifically according to Sophie Angela's physique. If injected into someone else's body, it easily triggers mutations and turns them into walking corpses," Cleina said.

The meeting concluded successfully amidst an atmosphere of jubilation. Everyone at the meeting was spirited and seemed to have found their backbone. From this moment onward, the team led by Li Junhao officially stepped onto the right track.

Looking at the anxious man, Hun Jianglong's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of suspicion surfaced on his face.

In his heart, he was also happy for his nephew—he had finally made something of himself... capable of making connections with all sorts of people.

"Teacher Lu Hao, I have always had a question I wanted to ask you, and I am wondering if it is convenient for you to answer," Shen Yi said calmly, her eyes still fixed on the white snow outside the window.

"I brought it. You... really know someone who fixes phones?" Rin was still somewhat puzzled. Over the phone, she had just mentioned finding someone to see if it could be repaired, giving it little thought at the time, but now it struck her as strange.

Although the two of them were A-list actors, when sparring in scenes with Li An, they genuinely felt the pressure Li An brought upon them! They even had the sensation of being overshadowed by Li An and reduced to mere supporting roles.

"The three of us have never truly fought each other properly, have we? Then, come on!" Ning Xiao's expression tightened, and his figure instantly vanished into thin air.

The disheveled old man let out a deep shout from his throat, curled his five fingers into a claw, and firmly grasped the eight copper coins in his palm.

Following the accumulation of popularity over these past few days, Li An surged directly into the top fifty of the fiercely contested tier of third-rate celebrities.

However, was his purpose to sell out and swear allegiance to the Tartar court? Obviously not! Fan Zhuoyuan possessed his own pride; naturally, he could never bend his knee to serve the foreign invaders and harm anti-Yuan righteous men.

Chen Chu wore a pure white satin long dress. Today, she deliberately let down her long, wavy hair and adorned herself with numerous pearl accessories and hairpins.

The truth was indeed so. With Qin Yu's current reputation and prestige, his personal maidservant would be more respected in any place than a high-ranking regional official, and might even receive the adoration of the masses.

At this very moment, in a spacetime where Nono seemed unable to hear, a Totoro was calling out to Erii. Yet what reached Nono's ears sounded merely like the rhythmic pounding of wooden sticks.

"It's a good thing for you people, but for Old Zhou, it's bad news!" Liu Sicheng chuckled lightly.

Jiang Yu knew that the Xuantian Sect and Great Yan were at odds, and he assumed that Lu Qingxue and Jiang Huan had fallen out over matters concerning the Xuantian Sect.

Gu Jianghe notified the hospital and arranged for Wang Youli to be the first to undergo a full-body checkup. As soon as the X-ray films were developed, the radiologist let out a gasp of surprise. When Wang Youli was wheeled out, Gu Yan saw that Wang Dahai's eyes were red.

Just as this matter subsided, Tong Guan and Li Gang led a group of people to the Jin Dynasty embassy to demand the handover of prisoners from Wanyan Baye.
