056. Lin Mi’s Diamond Card!
Witnessing this scene, many people stopped, their curiosity piqued. They wanted to see just how tonight’s ‘outrageous’ sum of five and a half million would ultimately be settled. Would Wei Xun truly spend a fortune just to win a beauty’s smile, and take this ‘hot potato’ for himself? After all, this plot of land was one of the evening’s two main attractions. With the important business now concluded, everyone finally had time to watch with a little more interest.
Yet just at this moment, Zheng Feng appeared and called for a vote. What’s the point of voting? Wasn’t it obvious that the Liu family held all the power? With so many Liu family partisans, who could possibly compete with them?
As soon as he landed, Fang Yan paid no heed to the waves of pain surging through his body and rolled across the ground several times before lying motionless. The bow is already drawn, and there’s no turning back. If he couldn’t contain Salong, his presence would be exposed, and the mission to retake Port 998 would end in failure. Faced with the rampaging Gaik apes, how many among them could hope to survive?
Just as he reached the vice chairman’s office, the door suddenly opened and Jia Mei stepped out. She cast a cold glance at Zheng Feng, a sly smile playing at her lips, but said nothing, as if waiting to see how his drama would unfold.
What’s more, Chenliu was their only refuge now. If they lost Chenliu as well, Liu Ye and his group would truly have no choice but to sleep on the streets.
Boundless and Infinite were at a loss for words after what they had just witnessed. This fellow had suddenly launched an attack, his aura surging to an astonishing degree! Was this his true strength all along?
“Thank you, thank you, Instructor!” The young man immediately sat cross-legged, but sweat poured down his face. He couldn’t even manage to meditate; anxiety and fear were etched clearly upon his features.
Li Cangyu found herself pulled into a tight embrace, thinking it hadn’t been that long—they’d only just met in Shanghai, hadn’t they?
When Xiao Shaohua went to the restroom, he passed a fellow sitting three rows away, probably from the engineering department, given the VR helmet and glasses on his head—he seemed to be running a weapons application simulation. Xiao glanced over curiously, struck by how much it resembled a first-person shooter game.
“Senior, you should go as well,” Fang Yan said at length, turning to the gray-robed elder after what felt like an eternity.
“What are you doing? Don’t touch me! You big pervert, get away from me!” The chubby girl jerked her arm, sending him flying.
A long moment passed before Mo Jingyuan finally spoke. When he lifted his gaze, the unrestrained coldness in his eyes made Bai Pianran’s body shudder involuntarily.
In the end, Su Nan thought it over, grabbed his guitar, and got off the bus, planning to go upstairs for the rehearsal and draw his number.
The avalanches tumbling down from the mountains on either side built a towering wall of snow behind them, separating them from the Rouran people and Nangong Yu, each stranded on opposite sides.
An Ruoran looked at Linda with concern, having no idea what exactly had happened to her.
Aya stumbled several steps, thrown off balance by his push, and crashed into the corner of the wall.
The barbecue shop owner was completely dumbfounded. He never imagined something this big could happen in his restaurant. If Kexin died here, there was no way he could escape responsibility.
Except for myself, everyone stared at me, but I remained silent, wondering how he knew my name.
That camera had been a replacement from Mo Youting after Tan Meng broke hers—a top-of-the-line, full-frame DSLR, the latest model on the market. Even someone as clueless about cameras as Du Ruo thought it was amazing.
“What did you just say?” The emperor’s voice was deep and heavy, his face as dark and foreboding as a stormy sky, so oppressive it sent a chill through anyone who dared meet his gaze.
