Volume One, Chapter 62: Never Set Foot in My Home Again
"I don't think it looks like that. The Yuan family isn't short of money, so why would they buy fake goods?"
"Even so, it's still the Yuan family's money. How thick-skinned must she be to shamelessly use it, and she's not even married yet!"
Casting a sidelong glance at Yuan Yanzhou, his expression changed abruptly as he gently supported her into her room and carefully helped her sit down.
The man with the honest face was now on the verge of exploding, his words grinding through clenched teeth as he stared fiercely at his brother.
"Yes, it's the treasure soon to be revealed in the Wild Ridge. If you can bring me what I need from it, I'll let you have the Tricolor Water Lotus," the five-tailed celestial fox blinked its lively, gem-like eyes, gazing at Xia Zixuan with a hint of anticipation.
Yet, unsurprisingly, even relying solely on physical strength posed no threat to Xia Zixuan; after a few moves, his opponent was sent tumbling from the stage.
In that dream, Ma Shuting desperately tried to see the man's face, but no matter how she tried, it remained obscured, as if shrouded in mist.
"Sister-in-law, you must trust me—I truly mean it," Jing Xuan shamelessly followed her, stepping right in front of her, even reaching out as if to touch her delicate and radiant face.
At these words, both the man in blue and the one in grey stopped, their gazes landing simultaneously on Qin Hao.
Princess Fire Dance was startled by Jiang Chen's sudden action; though he wore a mask, he always showed her his gentle side.
At once, the eight giant qilin behind him responded in unison, moving forward deliberately, encircling Xia Liu, Zhong Kui, and Shen Bingjie at the center.
The wall was constructed from a strange black stone, the likes of which Lu Li had never seen before, making it seem all the more unusual.
"You said you weren't well just moments ago, and now you claim you're healed. I can't tell when you're telling the truth or lying," Mu Xuefu pushed away his lips, but didn't push him away—instead, she buried herself in Jing Rong's embrace.
After receiving the herbal medicine from the doctor, the teacher fed it to Yangyang, who was still unconscious.
The nurse was startled by his fierce demeanor, quickly pointing to the nearby consulting room, "They're inside, treating the wound, bandaging..." Before the nurse finished, Ji Shengyue had already rushed toward the room in haste.
They had gone through so much to reach this day. This step was hard-won and fraught with difficulty, but precisely because of that, it was all the more precious now.
But thinking it over, I decided to let it go. First, I don't want to owe Su Meng anything. Right now, I've agreed to be her boyfriend, but she hasn't asked me for anything yet; if I owe her, who knows what might happen. Second, matters of freshman year should be settled among freshmen. If she helps, whose underlings would those thugs become?
Fan Xuanxuan was fairly obedient. She called Zhou Desheng, telling him not to come back, and then moved into the student dormitory herself.
"Where to?" I felt that Haozi had really changed; it seemed like nothing fazed him anymore, and he handled everything calmly, while I was still far from reaching that level.
Leng Lingyun was anxious upon hearing this, but since this was its domain and given its current state, it couldn't break free—he couldn't even make a sound.
At first, she truly felt sorry for him, but what good was pity? He would never get up to work again, couldn't provide food, and would need someone to care for him. She worked late every day and was already exhausted, with no energy left to comfort her old husband.
Grandfather's arrival didn't continue the love her parents had given her, but he did constantly urge her to study witchcraft.
After speaking, Xiao Heng entered the bedroom, took two pieces of clothing from the wardrobe, and began unbuttoning his suit jacket.
