Volume 1, Chapter 172: How about offering myself in return?
Amidst the roaring revs of the street-racing exhaust, passersby turned their heads to gawk. Yet all they could catch a glimpse of was the sharp, aggressive taillight of the Lamborghini Aventador.
If only Wang Chen-dian could accompany them, even without lifting a finger, the mere pressure of a half-saint would be enough to deter those fiends.
As Ge Wei walked back to her dormitory, she naturally drew the attention of countless onlookers. However, she paid it little mind and couldn't be bothered to care about the malicious, mocking, or sarcastic thoughts harbored by those people.
"Well, um, perhaps I was mistaken." As the daughter born to Helian Xuanyu and Feng Longlong, and possessing true imperial blood, Feng Qinghong stuck out her tongue and instantly regained her composure.
To give an analogy, consider a watch: if an office worker with a monthly salary of three thousand wears a Tissot, people who see it will instinctively assume it's a fake. Yet, they won't be foolish enough to walk up and ask, because it would only make things awkward for both parties.
Because Shen Jun was unaware of the potency, the dosage administered to Nan Yan was a bit too heavy, leaving Nan Yan in poor health ever since. On Qin Zixia's eighteenth birthday, Shen Jun used her own body and money to beg a black witchcraft practitioner in the Yunnan borderlands for a Gu poison pill, thereby sending Nan Yan to her grave.
Yu Zhen had not originally been such a mild-mannered and indecisive person. Could it be that he had truly shrunk into timidity out of "shame"? Xia Musheng found it deeply irritating to look at Yu Zhen like this; he thought to himself, what was the point of all this?
Jin Jinxiang curled her lips in a pout. He had the nerve to call her a foodie; looking at him, he was the absolute embodiment of a glutton.
She still could not understand it, nor could she comprehend it, but she had no desire to go against Yu Zhen's dying wish. She had to let his secret rot away with her.
"That's right, working like this for a month, about how much can you earn?" Unable to suppress the curiosity burning in her heart, Ling Xia finally asked.
A person's appearance is easy to alter, but their voice cannot be changed. With his back turned to Li Shi, Bian Lanjun instantly recognized the owner of that voice.
The discussion among the crowd temporarily paused due to Su Su's departure. Everyone was waiting for Niu Niu to awaken. When evening came and night fell, the heads of Bai Xueli and Hu Sandao still had not been delivered. Meanwhile, Bai Heng was preparing to leave, because early the next morning, he had to pilot an aircraft to Eight Directions Village.
Man Shengsheng was just about to "strike back" when a "gulu" sound echoed through the snowy landscape—the distinctive crunch of boots treading upon deep, thick snow.
It was quite possible, yet Man Shengsheng remained certain that she truly did not know anyone with the surname He, and Xiao Ju had also stated that he did not know any.
Only at moments like this did Fei Fei dare to gaze so openly at Xie Yaoshi; ordinarily, she lacked the courage to do so.
"Uh, I do have that thought, but I feel the chances are probably slim. After all, getting double digits in steals is just too difficult!" Sun Dahai scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat embarrassed as he spoke.
The trembling ice instantly froze in place, and the fiercely blazing flames gradually died down. With a single thought from Li Qing, the ice encasing both him and the three-headed hellhound vanished instantly. As the ice dissolved, clumps of burnt black ash drifted down and scattered upon the ground.
And today, the Warriors finally experienced the agony of their opponents... An Anthony Davis capable of exploiting mismatches on offense gave the Warriors a massive headache.
