Volume 1, Chapter 66: Paying on His Behalf

Huahua glided all the way to the entrance of the Zijin District and suddenly stopped, almost throwing Chacha off.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss."

Where is the Moon-Reflecting Mansion?

Chacha's mind went blank as she hugged Huahua dumbly.

Right, how do we get to the Moon-Reflecting Mansion?

At this moment, Huahua, draped around Chacha's neck, shook its head with a very human-like expression.

"Meow, meow~"

"We've played one round, shouldn't you give me some kind of reward?" Gu Chen lowered the air gun leisurely, gently turned An Xiaoxiao's shoulders, and looked straight into her sparkling eyes.

That was why she had tried so hard to treat him. Beyond her innate duty as a healer, the greater motivation was that she wanted to obtain his help.

"What's going on with our general manager, Brother Zihao, lately?" Ye Xiaomei asked Yao Beiqi curiously, who was standing beside her.

Fengguang truly dreaded this opening line. She reined in her expression, put on a serious demeanor, and prepared to listen earnestly to whatever instruction he was about to give.

"Bring your face over here." Xiao Ran didn't want to waste words and couldn't be bothered to answer her question, shouting at her in a purely commanding tone.

Keigo Atogis wouldn't care about Jiro at all, would he? Therefore, he didn't even want to deign to speak to Jiro, because it simply wasn't flamboyant.

Her face twitched involuntarily. Really, no one had ever addressed her quite like that. So, she stammerically replied, "Uh... Mr. Drunk, I'm here to pick up my car. Is the car really fixed?" Qi Ranjun's lips twitched slightly as well, before he recovered his captivating, peerless smile.

"I'm working at Dongfang Dujin now. How about this, Dad? Wait for me at the Tree Garden nearby for a moment, and I'll be right over." Shu Mo figured that since he was looking for her, it must be for something important.

Ye Yulin had just gone to the accounting room to check the Ye family's ledgers and hadn't finished yet when he heard that the elderly clan patriarch of the Ye family and several other collateral relatives had all arrived.

What's more, she now had her son. Therefore, regarding everything Qin Shuyi had done in the past, she had truly let it go long ago. As long as Qin Shuyi didn't pull any more outrageous stunts in the future, she wouldn't take anything to heart—after all, that woman was her son's grandmother.

"No, I mustn't fall apart. I can't let him see through me." Lin Kun tried his utmost to remain calm and collected, projecting an air of ease and composure.

A smile crept into Wang Ling's heart. Those fellows like Touren weren't completely useless after all; a few words had actually managed to scare the opponent off.

"Alright, alright, still sulking?" Feeling somewhat guilty and not knowing how to comfort her, Lin Kun suddenly thought of the letter he had written to her. At the time, figuring she would be coming over anyway, he had decided against mailing it and planned to hand it to her in person. Who would have thought it would come in handy right now?

Nadiya: My thoughts exactly. While appreciating the "scenery," we can also study sentence structures, achieving a win-win situation and ensuring that opening a book brings benefits.

Kiyokoni Shinohara's final question instantly caused Xiao Xi's expression to shift slightly as he dazed for a second. Immediately afterward, catching sight of Anna's current blank and bewildered gaze, Xiao Xi hastily brushed it off with a hearty laugh.

Alibai snorted and turned back to sit down. If he were to genuinely lead his troops away now, that would truly amount to desertion in the face of battle. By then, even with his close relationship with the Grand Chieftain, the Grand Chieftain would not spare him. That would mean certain death.

Upon returning to his room, Lin Kun saw that Mother Dati's room was still lit and she wasn't asleep. She was sitting at the edge of the bed, which was covered with a thick felt mat. After a moment's thought, feeling he still needed to go in and have a chat, he knocked on the door.

When he saw Liu Feiyang lying in the pool, he turned his head and gave Huang Lili a profound, unfathomable look. Glancing her up and down, he realized she hadn't undressed yet, which meant there was still room to turn things around.

The problem was, first, he needed to determine whether the recent series of anomalies was a chain reaction triggered by himself, the butterfly. Second, he needed to figure out what deeper motives the Four Esoteric Sects might be harboring behind this Ancient Path Trial.
