Chapter 46: Sleeping Requires Holding My Wife

Pei Siya no longer teased her. "Come on, let's go see Mom."

Li Yunchu finally nodded and walked toward the hospital room with the man, completely ignoring Yao Yuan.

She should give her husband enough trust.

Pei Siya didn't stay long in the hospital room; he still needed to check the surveillance footage.

The man found an excuse. "Mom, I have some work tonight. Yunchu will stay to take care of you today. I’ll be here at the hospital, so just contact me if anything happens."

Li’s mother nodded.

The Crown Prince was engrossed in playing with his cup when a slender, bony hand reached over and firmly took it away.

Huo Qiusheng lowered his head, found the contact for the Discipline Inspection Commission’s leader, and sent the pre-written message.

He believed he had thoroughly grasped Ji Jiu’s “mind,” and so he relaxed, wearing an easy expression.

Xu Qingshu raised her delicate brows, looking at the pale man before her—the younger brother of the mercenary squad leader.

Lin Rao stared intently at Hua Sheng, so furious she was speechless. Seeing the other’s beautiful cat-like eyes shift from mockery to pity, she wished she could turn back time and never have met Hua Sheng.

Chen Xiao hadn’t shown up, so the people surrounding the villa left in the afternoon, planning to return the next day.

She had intended to brandish Lu Sui’s name to intimidate the Shi family, but it seemed even Lu Sui had no malicious plans.

Having helped write a report and submitted it directly to Qin Xiao without procedural flaws, the investigation by the Inspection Team into Li Yuanlang was naturally lifted.

They watched as the fierce dog’s eyes shifted from alertness to ferocity, then to terror—all within less than a minute.

"Besides Jingjing, there’s no one else inside, right?" Seeing Xu Youxiao nod, Li Yuanlang breathed a sigh of relief. Though Jingjing was a dog, it was still a life.

"Master Situ, judging by your tone, you must have apprenticed somewhere before?" Ye Xiu caught some useful clues from the other’s demeanor and pressed further.

Everyone was focused on their own survival, unable to consider others—even their own family could no longer be protected well. This was a great reshuffling; only those ruthless or extraordinarily capable would survive.

Yes, they had felt this way before—as if it were a skill, a form of perception that only manifested in moments of utmost danger.

"Silence! Step back!" Lu Feng, seeing his son stubborn and unyielding, had no choice but to shout and order him away.

It dared not be negligent, galloping with all four hooves toward the cave dwelling. Just after rounding a mountain bend, it saw the visitor conversing with the demigod Gris and showed no sign of attacking. It then slowed its pace.

I was silently marveling at fate’s irony when the wooden door creaked open again.

"This might be one of the few reliable people around Uncle. No matter what, it’s better to be polite—it never hurts!" Yun Hao replied calmly.

Each bullet striking the psychic battle armor consumed the armor’s spiritual energy. In the end, it was impossible to know how many bullets would hit the armor, making the amount of energy consumed very difficult to calculate.

The swirling dust made Chen Jin frown slightly. He summoned his internal energy, and like a violent storm and tsunami, a mighty aura surged upward, sweeping the swirling dust away instantly.

The Evil Emperor roared, gathering profound and mysterious powers in both hands, attempting to withstand the combined strike of the three adversaries.

"Are we the kind of people who buy things and don’t pay? Doesn’t this make it look like you’re the one wronged? Who is really at fault here?" Longsun Qian’er’s eyes flashed sharply, her elegant brows knitting slightly. That refined aura tinged with nobility was something not just anyone could embody.
