Chapter 67: Beaming with Joy

Despite all of Lin Qingyu's grand talk, she had never stopped to consider a simple truth: food is food, no matter where you eat it. Once you monopolize the market and raise your prices, customers aren't fools—wouldn't they simply take their business elsewhere?
This was far from a moderately prosperous society where everyone lived in affluence.
No one had extra money to spare on pursuing quality of life or brand prestige.
Merely filling one's stomach was the paramount necessity for survival.
Although Qi Yunyan listened...

The zombies in the other building were far fewer than those in this one. Most of the valuable supplies inside had been concentrated in the equipment room, and they had already been completely cleaned out during the previous operation.

After finishing the arrangement, Wang Yuan's figure vanished entirely, leaving only a thin, long rope in his place. Hidden by the darkness, it was completely devoid of any suspicious signs, quietly waiting for the enemy to arrive.

Having suffered the scars of past romance and experienced the bitterness of unrequited pursuit, Yuan Jianfeng had long since grown indifferent to many things. At this point in his life, he simply longed for an ideal marriage. Aside from being a divorcee with a child, Wu Ling matched every single criterion of Yuan Jianfeng's dream partner in all other aspects.

"I was just about to look for you, how is it that you came over?" As he reached the doorway, Zhang Si saw Chen Bin walking toward him.

The evil spirit abruptly materialized behind the grotesque entity, severing its eagle-like wings with two consecutive sword strikes and delivering a heavy kick to its back. The creature was sent hurtling downward like a falling meteor, crashing heavily into the ground! The core of the crimson beam of light directly engulfed the monster's body, unleashing a torrential blaze that incinerated it into vapor, only for it to regenerate in the distance.

With a deafening clash, Tomita Gang and Big Mouth swung their blades at each other in a direct parry. Following the impact, both men took a step back.

Upon hearing these words, the crowd nodded heavily in unison, their faces expressing profound agreement.

After the meal, Chen Wei escorted Shen Die back to the Jiangzhou Television Station, as she had an evening broadcast to host later that night.

Once breakfast concluded, everyone gathered together to make preparations for the journey ahead.

Under the lights, Martin sat in self-reflection, wondering if a careless remark of hers might have sparked resentment in the other person.

The descending saber surged with a terrifying, bone-chilling glare, enveloping Dugu Chen. Suddenly, Dugu Chen's body shifted as he flattened backward, lying almost parallel to the ground in a maneuver resembling a disgraceful, clumsy roll to dodge sideways.

With a sound resembling the slicing of a watermelon, the wrinkled man's right hand was cleaved entirely in two by the sharp saber, right between the ring and middle fingers, the blade tearing straight through to his wrist.

"Heh!" Mengya put on an indifferent expression, choosing neither to refute the butcher's words nor to offer any defense, simply maintaining a silent facade.

Upon seeing the arrival of Long Que, a trace of confusion flickered across Ye Xuanling's expression, yet he maintained every standard of etiquette without the slightest lapse, bowing respectfully to Long Que.

Following along with Yang Zhao's group, Ye Suiyun wound his way through the sprawling city of Chang'an, losing all sense of direction. He could only focus intently on the people ahead, terrified of falling behind. After walking for some time, they finally arrived at a grand estate. Hanging above the double doors was a plaque with characters inscribed in gold leaf that read "Li Residence," though Ye Suiyun could not read them.

Yet Wei Chenze's visit this time was not to bond over father-son affection. Unreconciled to failure yet utterly powerless to change it... he could only vent his frustrations blindly on others.

"Let's say a little less, everyone just say a little less. Harmony is precious, let's keep harmony above all else," Director Luo hurriedly intervened to smooth things over.

Lu Daoling, Dugu Huang, and Qiongyazi felt their pressure lift slightly, though after briefly resisting the astral might, they were utterly exhausted.

Zhang Shujie recounted the atmosphere and emotions he had experienced when participating in the Champions League final, and the Milan players listened with rapt attention. Among this AC Milan squad, Zhang Shujie was the sole player who had ever contested a Champions League final.

Much like Guo Liangdong, Marquis Wei could not be the one to proactively suggest replacing Wu Mingyan; after all, doing so would make him appear far too impatient.
