Chapter 67: An Unexpected Guest

When Li Qingyun opened the door, she was surprised to see the three members of the Li family. They looked as if they were being chased by wild dogs, sweating profusely and gasping for breath.

“Eld… Eldest sister, do you have anything to eat? I’m starving, exhausted, and thirsty,” Li Debao called out, half crouched and clutching his stomach.

Although Li Qingyun very much wanted to turn them away, she feared that if she did, she would be drowned in a flood of gossip. If her own parents came to visit and she refused even to let them in, her carefully rebuilt reputation would plummet all over again.

After struggling with herself for a few seconds, she had no choice but to let them in. She would just keep up appearances for now—after all, it wouldn’t…

Nian Gao seemed to hear her own heartbeat, loud and pounding against her eardrums. She stared unblinking at the people so close to her.

In the underworld, no matter how noble your status was in life, if you couldn’t reincarnate, you were just a new ghost, easy prey for others. It might hurt for a while, but he believed that before long, she would get her wish to be with Yeying, and finally live the life she had always dreamed of.

Should she give it to him? When would be the right time? Her heart was filled with anxiety and an ominous premonition.

“If I remember correctly, your so-called boyfriend is just wishful thinking on his part. I don’t even know who he is, all right?” Qiao Zhiyan finished her words and rolled her eyes in exasperation.

At People Scare Ghosts International Ltd., to actually see a departed loved one—this was nothing short of a fairy tale.

He had blocked her on WeChat and silenced her calls, but somehow overlooked text messages.

When the yellow aura faded, the mighty dragons were no longer just playing. Even a gentle touch now cost half a health bar. Chang’an controlled the white-robed hero, who instantly vanished, his clothes switching in a flash to a tight dark robe with attack bonuses, the hem embroidered with blood-red plum blossoms traced by crimson threads.

With an arrogant and domineering tone, as if he didn’t take Su Tong seriously at all. Su Tong’s sharp gaze locked onto his eyes.

Also, the cabbage inside was from our own country, mixed with chives, apples, oyster meat, and spices.

Last time, Qiu’s mother had already told Xia Yumo to quit her job at the company. It would be best if she could stay home and look after the family.

He felt that as long as he made enough money to get by, there was no need to work so hard. Opportunities should be left for the young. Although he was only forty, his mentality had grown old; he had lost his drive.

The moment he asked this question, Xuan Ye felt the heavy stone pressing on his heart lighten a little. Before Ao Bai could reply, he met those eyes, bright as bells, once more.

At first, it was all right—some well-to-do young men even brought their servants to the shop to buy some implements, planning to take them home for further study.

The phone rang, and a warm greeting came through. Yu Youwei kept his eyes on the map, paying little heed to what Liang Yuan was saying.

Gu Lichuan answered a call from Jin Xing, thinking at first he wanted to talk about Dabao.

But today, as soon as Yi Pin noticed, not only did Lin Daiyu’s face change, even Lin Feiyu reached up to rub her temples.

Over twenty masters launched their assault from all sides, giving Luo Wushuang no chance to react.

It is said that the ancients had a kind of blind filial piety; even if their parents were wrong, they would never show disrespect. At most, they would simply live apart. But who would have thought this mother and son could come to such a pass? Clearly, something truly momentous must have happened four years ago.

So the best plan now was to let these people choose some familiar faces themselves, and then later he would go buy these people back.

The Hidden Leaf Village had only one ninja academy; in fact, the entire Land of Fire had just this one academy. There were plenty of private schools, but they only taught reading and arithmetic.

The bombardment continued like a city-wide barrage, the ground trembling, smoke rising, shockwaves and aftershocks sweeping in all directions.

Sure enough, during the day the army remained calm, but come nightfall, the remaining officers brought Zhang Qijie and Meng An to Zhao Xu’s door.
