Chapter 59 Who Is She

"What money? We agreed this is my treat."

Liu Pei was not a stingy person by nature, otherwise she wouldn't have repeatedly brought things to the Lin family, even though she was only that generous to them because of Lin Yun.

"Comrade Lin Xiang, may I ask you a question?"

Liu Pei cast a cautious glance at Lin Yun. Seeing that he was still far away, she lowered her voice and asked Lin Xiang, "Does your brother have some kind of prejudice against me? I feel like he doesn't seem to care for me much—"

"Who is it?" Wan Jiang curiously turned on the intercom camera outside the door. This gadget wasn't used even once a year, because their classmates rarely dropped by uninvited; if they needed something, they used communicators, and if there was a gathering, they chose a venue outside.

Yamei agreed without even asking what it was about. Zhao Jian leaned against the car, feeling drowsy. Whether it was due to being imbued with some purifying tranquility at the temple today, the irritation in his heart wasn't as intense as usual, but he still lacked energy.

Back inside the ancient castle, upon hearing Xia Ziyan say that he had been injured during his escape and his whereabouts were unknown, her heart had leapt into her throat, and she had even convinced herself that something really had happened to him. It wasn't until he appeared right before her eyes that she dared to face the reality of it.

Early the next morning, Jiao Yun was awakened by the notification sound of his terminal. He connected the call, and it was Su Mingxuan.

The very instant the lotus left Wei Meng's hand, the originally red lotus turned blue, and even the flames transformed into a captivating blue. The lotus fell to the ground and shattered immediately, just like something made of glass. After the fragments scattered in all directions, they vanished completely.

Outside the ward, the entire public relations team was holding a meeting on how to deal with the emotionally agitated netizens.

"Why would you ask that?" Bai Linghuai had no idea what was wrong with Wei Meng today, because Wei Meng had never asked such a question before.

If that really were the case, the media director's ranting caught on camera in the office would definitely have been seen. Yet, it was precisely because of this reason that the CEO returned instead of pondering over what course of action to take.

Ever since she woke up here, she had been forced to drink those bitter traditional Chinese medicines every day, but she had no idea what medicinal effects they actually had.

What made people even more in awe was the aura emanating from Die'er, which was as unfathomable as the vast ocean. Zhiyun, a cultivator on the verge of breaking through the Cloud-Treading Realm, felt a chill run down her spine, let alone the others.

With a loud roar, Wang Dabao sprang up abruptly, pulled out the military dagger he had been gripping the whole time, and lunged straight toward Li Lao'er's stomach. Zhang Lei and the others immediately followed behind Wang Dabao, thrusting four military daggers forward in unison at Li Lao'er's abdomen.

When the final school bell rang, today's sketching class came to an end, and the students, carrying their painting gear, left the birch forest one after another.

Li Qiang's expression didn't change in the slightest. He then pulled a military dagger, two to three Chi in length, straight out from a SWAT officer's waist. The dagger was entirely pitch-black with barbs along the back edge. If that thing were to be thrust in, it certainly wouldn't be child's play.

Disguise was no longer of any use. I removed the excess clothing, threw away my glasses, and restored my original appearance, walking toward the dean's villa without a shred of fear.

Glancing at the alchemy furnace, which was now growing calm, Ming Qi let out a long breath. Alchemy was simply more difficult than slaying a cultivator stronger than himself.

Yu Jing probably hadn't expected me to bring Lu Bei along. In a panic, she hurriedly rolled up the quilt to cover her body. However, because she had taken the entire quilt with her, Zhang Yunfei was inevitably left bare and exposed before our eyes.

Standing anxiously by the window in the hallway, I struck the windowsill in frustration. Why did so many unexpected events keep happening?

The moment she heard the name Yan Sui, Shaohua couldn't help but think of the arranged marriage between the Liu and Li families, making it impossible for her to feel any closeness toward her.

I was utterly baffled. Suddenly, I thought of that white BMW, and for some reason, a sentence kept echoing over and over in my mind.
