Chapter 32: The Calamity That Befell Wen Zongfu and the Wen Family Came Only Two Years Later
It was the dead of night and pitch black. Factory Director Wen held a flashlight, and as the three of them walked quickly, each was preoccupied with their own thoughts. Jiang Mi gripped a slip of paper in her hand.
Beneath her pillow, along with the money and coupons Wen Zongfu had left for her, was this note inscribed with a string of numbers.
Upon reaching the office, Jiang Mi did not hesitate and dialed the number immediately. It took a long time for someone on the other end to pick up.
Jiang Mi lowered her voice and said, "Comrade..."
Su Jinxi put on the cloak brought by Luli and stepped out. Nurse Hua desperately wanted to accompany her, but Su Jinxi firmly refused.
When he looked back at A-Cai, he realized A-Cai was just like him. They watched until Uncle Gen suddenly convulsed, then slumped over Aunt Gen, motionless. Only then did they quietly retreat. Without a word, the two walked to the seaside and sat down.
Li Xun compared this structure with the diagram in his memory, becoming increasingly convinced that it was undoubtedly the mysterious forbidden technique hidden within.
The Strength Demon's claws easily tore through his own chest, plunging deep inside, yet there was not a trace of pain on the demon's face. It was true; the Strength Demon felt no pain when inflicting wounds upon himself—this was his innate gift, the ability to ignore pain from injuries he could gauge.
With Zhao Tiezhu’s words, Gongmen Jing felt secretly triumphant. Judging by the strength of the punch he had just received, taking three more shouldn't be a problem. He gathered his inner energy, preparing to stubbornly withstand the remaining two blows.
Laba Festival, the coldest day since the start of winter, yet the day when hearts burned the hottest. Some say this is the day Sakyamuni attained Buddhahood, the path of seeing through a thousand illusions to return to one's true, innate nature.
The farce lasted two or three minutes before it ended, and the match finally returned to calm. But was it truly calm? No, absolutely not. Just look at Ye Feng’s darkened face. A disaster for Tottenham had arrived.
In their minds, temporary safety was far better than being eaten alive by ferocious ghouls. Perhaps, while others were being slaughtered by the evil creatures, they might have a chance to escape.
As you approach the lake near Doro Castle, you will discover a large human village standing on the shore. Numerous fishing boats drift upon the water, and with each cast and haul of the nets, countless fish leap within them. Coupled with the wisps of cooking smoke drifting slowly from the village, you might find it quite poetic.
He asked his eldest uncle to persuade Great-uncle Nine and the others to return home. To comfort his family and the villagers, he had to explain that they would hire the most famous lawyer in the provincial capital to argue the case in court the next day, insisting it was nothing to worry about. Hearing such a reasonable explanation, Great-uncle Nine and the others were no longer as anxious.
Zheng Tianhe had held the position of Governor of Jiangnan for many years and possessed many secrets. He dared not bring these items into the imperial palace, so he had to trouble Jun Jingxun to go there in person.
"You intend to have Jing Min seduce Zhang Zongchang?" Knowing Jin Jiali's intentions, He Lanxuan was stunned.
Yun Ranqing’s flushed cheeks turned pale, all color draining away. Terrified, she curled her body, shrinking back into the sofa as if she had recalled something deeply painful.
To this day, Yuan Che’s approval rating has completely crushed the other candidates. When such data was released, it was a slap in the face to those who originally looked down on him. They could never have imagined how a 25-year-old young officer managed to overcome competitors much older than himself.
"Steward Liu, how do you plan to collect payment for this medicinal pill? There aren't many magnetic crystal coins in the account right now," Guang Haitang asked with a smile.
Feifei waved her hand to retrieve her ring and bracelet. She had long since sensed that all the returning immortal pets were gathered inside the ring. As expected, A-Ren had kept his promise: he would not open the entrance to the bracelet until they left the Demon Immortal Realm. Feifei glanced back at the distant sky, flicked her sleeve to toss an object back into the cave dwelling they had just exited, and flew off side-by-side with Li Mofan, never looking back.
