"What the hell?! You mean just drinking the medicine for forty-nine days isn't enough?!" Hua Weixuan's face instantly turned beet red.

"You may go." Hongli dismissed the sleepy Lian'er, then walked over to Nalan, who was sitting on the bed looking somewhat dazed.

Noticing that Hua Weixuan was looking at her, the young woman turned her head, fixing a pair of phoenix-like eyes on her.

As they were talking, the cell phone in the bedroom rang. Tang Chen turned, walked into the room, picked up the phone, and answered it.

Hearing that she had been picked up from a mass grave and was not a true imperial princess at all, she was both startled and overjoyed, unable to describe the complex emotions swirling inside her.

A sense of foreboding washed over Chu Liangrao. She glanced at Mother Du, only to see that the joy in the older woman's eyes had been replaced by anxiety, though she was still trying to put on a brave face. At that sight, a stinging sensation hit the bridge of Chu Liangrao's nose.

She had never deliberately put on a haughty and superior air; no matter what she did, she always acted as if it were simply a matter of course.

Xuanyuan Yue stared at the large bite she had just taken out of the cucumber, let out a string of curses, and hurriedly spat the food in her mouth into the trash can nearby.

Murong Xuan knew his mother was about to launch into another lengthy lecture condemning his mistakes. He simply lowered his head in silence, letting her nag away.

This meal was exceptionally joyful. Yanbin actually used his beard to dance to the rhythm of the music from side to side for Yanyan, making her burst into gales of laughter. I didn't eat much during that meal; I just watched their joyous and endless interactions, inevitably thinking of a distant, far-off future, only to feel it was too far away and unattainable.

She had no idea how much her current appearance reflected her worry for the Li Group and George; this was hardly the proper attitude of an employee.

Otherwise, of the people he had brought, only he would be left standing now, and he wasn't even sure if he would make it out of this forest alive.

The journey had occasional bumps and uneven stretches, and her sleep was restless, her delicate brows furrowed slightly without her realizing it.

"George, has your brain been kicked by a donkey? My identity has been exposed, why are you still so happy? Don't you know how dangerous this is for me?" Gu Qingxin frowned, her face full of displeasure.

Before long, she came back from outside carrying a bowl of rice topped with a few slices of cured meat, handing it to Li Yongnian like presenting a rare treasure.

Ever since Jiang Yuheng "died" six years ago and George completely took over the Li Group, he had cut off all cooperation with the Mo Group.

She meticulously recorded Shen Yu's pulse and physical condition for the day, then offered a piece of advice tinged with slight dissatisfaction.

"Then... what should we do?" Right now, how could I possibly worry about others? I had to look out for myself first.

Whoever could secure the position of president would naturally be the one to sit in the highest chair of the newly established group after being cleared of their past.

After digging a pit half a meter deep, putting everything else inside, and refilling it, Li Yongnian finally began to ponder how to deal with the silver ingots.

"Pardon me, I have an urgent matter to attend to. You guys rest for a bit!" As soon as Fang Cheng finished speaking, a row of miniature launchers popped out from his shoulders, loaded with a row of tiny anesthetic missiles that shot out with a sharp whistle, directly hitting the two of them.

"You needn't worry. The one who should be worried is the opponent. If it fails to kill the intruder within a certain timeframe, it will simply vanish into thin air," the system sprite informed him.

Marshal Cornelius felt that what the other party was saying must be very important, but the sorrowful problem was that he couldn't understand a single word. A wave of frustration washed over him, leaving him with no choice but to offer a helpless, bitter smile.

If everything had been orchestrated by Qin Wudi, and he had managed to stir up such a massive commotion in such a short span of time, then this person's methods and power were truly terrifying.

A dozen or so miles outside the city, Wang Ze looked out from his carriage at the bustling crowds in the distance. It seemed that quite a few people had come just to watch the spectacle; he could even spot many who had specially ridden out on horses to witness it. This made Wang Ze's heart itch with curiosity while also filling him with admiration for their thirst for knowledge.

Xia Menglu took another bite, then pushed Zilingtian's hand toward his lips, saying sweetly, "Young master, you have a bite too."

The God of Fire looked at the Ghost King in the distance with utter disbelief, vomiting a mouthful of blood. Then, harboring endless unwillingness in his heart, he pitched forward and crashed to the ground.

Fu Qian stood holding a bamboo stick, looking dazed. Tonight, Chen Fan was not playing by his rules; his foodie-like behavior completely disrupted Fu Qian's train of thought, leaving him utterly unable to put on the airs of an expert any longer.

"Come on, let's go. I'll take you to see the immortal cave." Fang Cheng smiled helplessly, unwilling to dwell any further on the topic, and maneuvered the Black Dragon to head toward the direction of Soldier Mountain.

So his imagination ran wild, and he came up with a bold idea: could he perhaps establish a netherworld?

Zhao Gang was currently the acting director and a very busy man; for several days in a row, he hadn't even had time to go home, usually just sleeping right in his office. However, upon receiving a call from An Yinuo stating that Ye Mu had something to discuss with him, he rushed over in a flurry of dust, bearing two huge dark circles under his eyes within moments.

"Alright, stop messing around, Mio. Go take a bath first. Get to sleep early, we have an early morning tomorrow!" said Saikawa.

Indeed, he was unlucky! Unlucky beyond belief! Before he even had a chance to enjoy his blushing beauty, his vast fortune along with his wife had somehow been left to who knows what fellow.

Ye Shan waited anxiously at the teahouse, completely in the dark about the situation. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she helplessly dialed Fang Lin's number.

Tian Mei was a colleague of Zhu Zhenyu. She had joined the Steel Works upon graduating from technical secondary school, entering the unit in the same batch as Zhu Zhenyu, and had fallen in love with him at first sight. For all these years, she harbored an unrequited crush on him, once even gathering the courage during a drunken moment to confess her feelings. Yet, she had watched helplessly as he married Yu Yan, remaining unable to extricate herself from her lingering affection and staying unmarried to this day.

"Come on, everyone! Now let's show our new member—Mugi—our high-end moves!" Ritsu said excitedly, picking up her drumsticks.
