Chapter Ninety-Three: Parents
Seeing Gu Dashan and Gu Hai up ahead, still moving swiftly despite carrying a stretcher, then looking back at themselves trembling with fear, Wang Huazhong and the others could not help doubting their own sanity.
Lu Dawan clutched the vines hanging from the cliff edge, his whole body shaking with fear as he asked, “Didn’t you come here before?”
“We didn’t take this route,” Wang Huazhong said, swallowing hard. “We went to Whitewater Village first. We didn’t come this way.”
“Then toward Whitewater Village, the road would—”
Liu Shiba’s expression flickered, and without anyone noticing, Jing Se took out a red cord from somewhere. Tied to the other end was a large rooster with its eyes covered.
The passage they were in had fallen into an eerie silence, and everyone could see an unusual tension on Jing Se and Liu Shiba’s faces.
“Yes!” Liu Jianguo answered respectfully, then gathered the troops and set out with Qin Feng for Kunshan.
That meant that somewhere ahead, thirty thousand living mutant soldiers were waiting for him?
After the corpses were dealt with, the captured weapons and ammunition had to be gathered up and then distributed to those without bullets.
But whatever the case, Ling Mengyun’s arrival was a blessing to Xu the Hunter’s household. Though there was one more mouth to feed, the family’s life had only grown better and better.
In truth, Kuang had long since known that Dark was merely putting on an act. He had used the trick of spitting blood and pretending to faint countless times.
If he had not noticed a discordant spot nearby and successfully forced the man to show himself, this fellow would probably still be hiding in the shadows now, watching everything with detached indifference.
Yet the more that was so, the more Shen Dongyang and Sun Dongxiang liked Song Xiaodong. Given their family background, when they took the initiative to show goodwill and Song Xiaodong remained unmoved, it only further revealed how rare this young man truly was.
“It seems the thing the homeroom teacher did really wasn’t that one after all. Now that it’s been sorted out, let’s go.” Ye Tingmo was the first to walk out.
As for Bai Yuxiang and Shi Wenlu, because she had been born into an ordinary family, she had not been given the chance to enter the virtual world early to study. After all, a virtual pod was still very expensive for an ordinary household.
They simply had not managed to find where Gao Shishi lived, after all; Gao Shishi had never appeared from beginning to end.
Lin Zhi did not know whether to call it sad or fortunate. That was his aim, and it seemed to be her aim as well.
“Then what about me? Whose acting do you like better, mine or Nanxi’s?” The veteran movie star cousin was jealous.
Yu Yiye smiled. She was delighted by the praise, though only delighted, because she knew she was still far from enough. One must not grow too arrogant and complacent, or one would truly come to grief.
Hua Chen looked at Shi Yuan, who had taken the young man into his arms and left, and his exquisite, handsome face was flooded with a fierce chill; in his deep eagle eyes, icy light flickered.
Before this, she had never thought of writing anything at all. She had only wanted to study properly with Yuzi.
News of Su Yan’s recent appearances had spread with almost legendary extravagance. Some said he had been killed by the enemy nation’s great national master, Helian Hongxi; others said he was lying low in the darkness, waiting for a chance to strike back. But aside from Li Meili, perhaps no one knew the truth.
“Tch.” Although Fei Xunran had voiced her disdain, at heart she still believed some of what Xi Yuxuan said. After all... when she had a fever and stayed at his home, even if it was only congee, it had still been unbelievably delicious.
“Mr. Tang, please rest assured. Our resort will not evade responsibility. We will take care of these two tires. As for the inconvenience caused to you, we are truly sorry.” The resort manager said apologetically, his attitude very sincere.
Those subordinates said nothing either. Chen Chuan was their boss; after offering their congratulations, putting down the flower baskets and red envelopes, they left.
As for Golden Wave City, it was the most prominent of the seven rebel cities. Not only was it the largest among the seven, it was also the most prosperous. Most importantly, the land outside its walls was a broad plain with little rise or fall, almost impossible to defend with any natural barrier. Even the least military-minded person making the decision would make it the first target.
