Chapter 159 Borrowing Money
Teng Hu reported what he had found out to Ye Feng. Ye Feng frowned slightly; this "Scissors" was even more heinous than he had imagined. "Brother Feng, we must help him," Teng Hu said somewhat anxiously. "His daughter has been captured for quite some time now, so there's no need to rush just yet," Ye Feng said with a cold expression.
"Sister, I wonder what piece you wish to play? Would you like me to help you find the sheet music? Since you weren't here earlier, you might not have heard, but what I played was 'High Mountains and Flowing Water,'" Shen Ruoruo said, looking at Shen Guantong with a smile.
Seeing this, several of the other old men nodded in agreement one after another, pointing fingers at Liu Yunyi both overtly and covertly.
Of course, he wasn't worried that Yijing Construction would compete with him; rather, he felt a bit of sour grapes.
The anxiety caused by the exams instantly faded away, replaced by a sudden peace in Chu Xuhan's heart. Shen Guantong, resting against Chu Xuhan's chest, quietly listened to the steady heartbeat of the man before her, unable to keep her face from flushing red.
Actually, when he first started singing, Wu Jiang hadn't dared to look directly at Zhou Ji, afraid that both of them would get nervous. It wasn't until this line that Wu Jiang dared to look into Zhou Ji's eyes, his gaze filled with overflowing tenderness. The moment their eyes met, Zhou Ji looked away from his direct gaze, though the bashfulness on her face could not be concealed.
The cheapest kind, although in the eyes of ordinary people, already belonged to the finest of the fine.
As the night grew deeper, the world turned pitch dark, yet the county magistrate's mansion remained brightly lit and bustling with activity.
Regardless of everything else, the bar was finally open for business as usual, and An An resumed her busy life.
Being in a rush, Wu Jiang struggled to put on his T-shirt, finally managing to pull it over his head only after getting out of bed. He slipped into his sneakers on the fly, stepping into them as he walked—fortunately, he never untied his shoelaces when taking off or putting on his shoes.
As for An An, she was already unconscious when Gu Fan found her. From a modern medical standpoint, An An was already dead. Gu Fan knew this, yet he did not take her to the hospital, as there was no point.
"I just stated my own name, register yourselves! Are you treating my words as wind blowing past your ears?" The young man had a very foul temper, and he reprimanded Chen Mo and Gu Xiaoxiao sternly.
After cutting down several waves of guards, the three of them finally reached the prison specifically used to detain captives in this armed camp. Perhaps because this dungeon was located in a core area, the four guards stationed at the entrance all looked listless and drowsy.
They wanted to use substitute scarecrows to take their place and make their escape, but unfortunately, this time the region had been suppressed by the Gate of Dominion, and its terrifying gravitational pull completely locked down the entire area.
By this time, they had already emerged from the freezing cave and were about to head back to retrieve the Flame Stone Heart. To avoid being baked alive upon entering, Ran Zechen parked the flying vehicle in the middle zone and reminded Yu Xiaowei.
Frowning, Tong Yiyi keenly sensed the subtle change in Qin Shen and could only soothe him in her own way.
The man addressed as Brother Chen ignored the manager entirely and walked straight toward An Xuemo without a sideways glance.
However, the hotel manager over there knew very well that since the other party only wanted a single table, there was no way they could serve dishes meant for a thousand-yuan banquet; at the very least, it had to be prepared according to the highest-tier banquet, costing fifty thousand yuan per table.
Gu Xiaoxiao had originally intended to help think of a way, but upon hearing the villagers' indiscriminate curses and abuses, her anger flared up instantly as well.
A figure of Holy Son caliber was someone he simply could not afford to offend; once offended, he wouldn't even know how he died.
"It's like this..." Bing Xin recounted everything the Sword Soul had said when the sword was drawn.
