Chapter 140: Make Yourself at Home

With nothing to do, Su Qingli went downstairs for breakfast and sat on the sofa to watch some television, though it held little interest for her.

She had just begun to drift into a daze when the butler hurried over.

"Madam, you aren't cooking up any more trouble, are you?"

"Huh? No, not at all. I was just thinking about something."

...

Cangsheng curled the corners of her lips, feeling quite pleased. At the mere thought of leaving soon, her spirits soared again, and she drifted away in a lighthearted reverie.

Seeing that Huarong paid him absolutely no mind, Li Mingxiao suddenly recalled something, and his expression shifted slightly.

Though Luo Ze’s strength was technically inferior to his own, this particular style of fighting was something he found impossible to adapt to.

Song Yiyi knew clearly that the dinner party her mother was organizing was nothing more than a trap.

She then shed tears, as if she had suddenly remembered the soldier she had saved on the ship while returning from her studies abroad.

"It is fine; just do what you can," Caidie said with a calm expression. She reached out to stroke Caimo's hair, comforting him softly before busying herself with bandaging his wounds.

Although Miss's livestream was highly popular and the chat room was filled with active viewers, very few people were actually sending gifts.

"Hmm?" Upon hearing him address him as "Prime Minister" again, Ding Rui’s face darkened instantly, his gaze cold and icy as he looked at the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Seeing that Yufeng had temporarily settled down, the three of us quickly turned around, standing back-to-back as we watched our surroundings with vigilance.

Xiahou Jie followed closely behind, his giant axe descending. With no room left to evade, Chen Jia had no choice but to fight with everything he had, darting around the two of them.

Suppressing his excitement, Wu Lü first bowed to Chu Yunxi and the others before walking over to Si Qi.

Li Hanting did not have time to look away, and their gazes met in mid-air, colliding.

Bo Zili and Song Nanzhu rushed over to untie the ropes on the man. Ignoring the chill of his body, they picked him up and carried him to a dry spot.

Upon learning that I needed a professional in food inspection, he had his subordinates recommend several heads of relevant agencies in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, telling me to contact them directly whenever I had a need.

Li Hanting smiled without a word, his eyes—deep as dark pools—fixed steadily upon her.

He did not stop until her lips had turned a vivid, bewitching color. Then, pulling her hand, he looked with a mocking smile toward Li Li, who was standing to the side watching the scene.

The matchmakers and butlers, who were still blocking the gate of Tianxia Academy, hurriedly cleared a path when they saw people from the Imperial Palace approaching.

That would make even less sense. If those two had run away, Liu Hui would surely have contacted Jiang Sui-sui immediately. Why would Jiang Sui-sui be foolish enough to tell me to come here?

I pondered whether he thought that even if Wang Liang came, he wouldn't do anything to me—after all, I was an employee under Wang Liang, so he would have to hire outsiders to give me a real beating.

Walking slowly with Huang Mei in tow, Wang Chuan felt a surge of excitement, yet he also began to contemplate what he should say when he finally met his own subordinates.

The prison within the Military Police headquarters was far better than Ivan had imagined. At the very least, there were no piles of hay, nor were there disheveled, burly men squatting in the corners and staring at your backside with a foolish grin. Aside from the monotonous color of the walls, it was, all things considered, not bad.

Watching the purple light gradually fade as Wang Chuan’s consciousness returned, Hong Jun gathered his focus and closed the Creation Jade Disk.

"I apologize, Nagato, but I cannot accompany you to the training grounds," Kaga said with a look of deep regret.

Over the next month, Vanessa and Ian studied the various fundamentals of wizardry in an orderly fashion under Fang Yan’s guidance.

Before he could do more than let out a roar, the man was slapped directly into the ground by Luo Chen, as easily as swatting a fly.
