Chapter 37: It Seems You Are Expecting Something
Caught off guard by Lou Yizhou, Song Yin felt a wave of embarrassment, the fleeting panic on her face fully exposed to his gaze.
For just a moment, she composed herself and said with a smile, "Why would I be unhappy?"
"Is that so?" Lou Yizhou curled his lips, his expression tinged with a chill.
Song Yin had no choice but to play dumb to the end, even if her acting was clearly clumsy.
Their five-person team’s ranking matches maintained a perfect 100% win rate; they had yet to lose a single game.
"Hey, Boss Wang, your daughter Wang Xiaomin and I are trapped in the airport terminal by thousands of thugs. If you want your daughter to live, fly a helicopter here to pick us up," Li Hao said bluntly as he called Wang Xiaomin's father.
Mu Ximei narrowed her eyes, watching the increasingly cold curve of Rong Lu’s lips. She felt something was off; the smile was far too brilliant. Logic dictated that Rong Lu should harbor deep hatred for Cuimei, so why would he leave his position to her after he was gone?
For some reason, Leng Wuchen suddenly felt a sense of urgency. Without him realizing it, Lin Hanxi had become so familiar with those around her—a development he had completely failed to anticipate and had entirely overlooked.
"Even if we wanted to concede now, it’s unlikely the Cloud Flame side would agree," the Holy Son said. For the Cloud Flame, this was a golden opportunity. If he were their commander, he certainly wouldn't agree to peace talks.
"Just a servant?" Hearing these words, Mu Ximei felt a chill in her heart, as if an icicle had been driven into her chest in the dead of winter.
The atmosphere suddenly turned oppressive. After all, it was their first time meeting the boss, and for him to lash out like this—anyone would feel a bit awkward.
"Have you thought it over?" Feng Yufei tapped his index finger against the tea table, creating a rhythmic "clack, clack" sound.
Sitting in meditation on the spot, he vigilantly sensed the movements around him. Once his true energy was restored, Li Ning held his bow in his left hand and his blade in his right, sprinting through the void.
Although there was no way to verify it personally, one look at his agile movements was enough to know that those Blood Hunters couldn't even touch him, let alone hurt him.
The Tiangang Sect members stationed at Star Peak had been in a state of combat readiness, and upon hearing the order, they mobilized immediately.
With so many people in the station, if he had to have a meal with every host he collaborated with, he would be eating hundreds of meals.
Since they were hiding here, they must have heard the news. Regardless of whether Liu Qiang had contacted them, this excuse was sufficient to trick them into opening the door.
He was examining the items in the Intermediate Developer Store so carefully not for his own game, but to see to what extent Han Ye’s game could be developed.
In fact, this matter had been hyped for months; the buzz would fade and then surge again, consistently remaining in the top five. The rare events that managed to overshadow it were almost always related to Li Haoyue.
It was a pity that he couldn't grasp the nature of their relationship for the time being and would need to investigate further. For now, he could only pin his hopes on Wu Yong. The Blood Rock Puppet lurked deeper, having made up its mind to seize any opportunity to contact Wu Yong.
Rong Chen walked toward the stage with one hand in his pocket, his face handsome and his demeanor cool, giving off the impression of someone detached from the world.
"Yes." Qian Lai’s shamelessness was reserved only for Lin Di; in front of his employees, he maintained great authority. Seeing the staff greet him, he smiled and returned the gesture.
Moreover, prior to this, Zhang Ning had actually noticed that Zhang Jiao’s body seemed slightly off.
Dian Feng was a man, too, and was naturally stunned by her beauty, but he knew where his priorities lay and wouldn't be led into making a mistake because of it.
Mo Ruofei remained waiting where she was. Seeing the two emerge one after the other without any intention of fighting to the death, she couldn't help but be stunned: Had her master truly subdued the Magic Dragon Elephant?
