Chapter 45: It Can Be Straightened Out

If you want fabric, fine. Three eggs for a foot of fabric, any pattern you like. Bring me your eggs if you want some, and don't even think about taking advantage of me! Do you really think my, Zhao Xiuli’s, advantages are so easy to take?

Mother Lin couldn't care less about what others thought of her. She had already comfortably accepted the infamous reputation of abusing her adopted son, let alone the fact that the exchange terms she proposed were quite reasonable.

A meter of fabric was roughly three feet. Making a summer dress required about one and a half to two meters of fabric, plus—

Furthermore, the communication technology research direction pursued by Chu Hong proved far more useful to the safe zone than Zheng Yun's aerospace propulsion. Consequently, the points he earned were ten to twenty percent higher than those of the "useless" scientists.

Gradually, everyone arrived. The Bull Demon King came from his tribe to the military compound, the Devouring Tiger hurried over from Arhat Temple, and Tuoba Huang, after consulting with his royal father, also rushed straight to the military compound. Now, only Anyang had yet to arrive.

At the same time, internal integration and changes were taking place within the Glory Team. As for the nature of these changes, she had no way of knowing either. All she could be aware of was that... over the past hundred-odd years, the members of the Glory Team had grown from a few dozen people annually at the very beginning to a hundred, and in recent years, had even reached a thousand.

Ning Xin instantly understood what he meant, which showed that quite a few among the consuls acted in this manner.

If the discovery was made that the "item" was missing, the General Bug might report the situation to the Queen Bug. The Queen Bug would undoubtedly make the remaining settlements heighten their vigilance, making it difficult to strike again. Even if sleeping pills were used to knock out those Zerg, it would not be easy to smoothly frame the Japanese people at that time.

After all, if a real fight broke out, unless this Underworld Phoenix reverted to her true form and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with him, her magical foundation would still be thoroughly countered by him.

Di Beichen walked slowly up to Baili Hongzong, wrapped one arm directly around her shoulders, and a strikingly handsome smile bloomed across his face.

She had been waiting for this moment, so she did not put on airs or act coy; she nodded and reached out to wrap her arms around his neck, burying herself in his embrace.

Even though the Shi family did not publicize the matter, those who needed to know already knew about it, especially the other super VIPs.

She lowered her head, kissed the child's cheek, and thought to herself: In that case, Zhao Chu intercepting us mother and child this time means he wants to take the child back and acknowledge him as his eldest son?

Xiang Ziyao raised her head abruptly to look at Shaoyu, her eyes filled with astonishment. But the next instant, the look of astonishment vanished, replaced by a trace of sorrow.

A young man dressed in proper attire walked over, clad from head to top in a spotless suit. Several filmmakers began judging him by his attire right away; while his outfit was clean, it was far too solemn. The entertainment industry needed men with imagination, and this man was, at the very least, unsuitable for the first criterion.

Having been entangled by this thing for several days, every time just as sudden, though her scalp still tingled slightly, she was already much better off than in the past few days. At the very least, she now had the courage to ask a question, rather than fleeing in panic the moment she saw it.

"I cannot do something that crosses boundaries and takes over another's role. I am far too smart to make such a low-level mistake." Murong Jianxin found a great excuse to refuse.

Clearly visible under the dim candlelight, Huang Ying wore only a milk-white nightgown as thin as a cicada's wing, her exquisite and graceful figure faintly discernible. Her jade-white skin appeared even fairer against the backdrop of this nightgown.

Chen Hanzhang tried every possible means and made as much preparation as he could, but the development of the battle did not go according to his expectations. Just as Yi Liangpin was commanding the tank unit to advance rapidly along the Shanyin-Yingxian highway and the two battalions of the Tenth Division had just entered Yingxian, the situation at the Ruyue Pass was rapidly deteriorating.

In an instant, everyone's gaze was drawn to the ancient corpse's face. The eyeballs of the ancient corpse were still well-preserved, but due to the sagging of the facial muscles, most of its eyeballs were covered by withered purple muscles, leaving only a tiny bit of the black pupils, which turned a gloomy, eerie green under the sickly green light.
