Chapter 64: Once Lovers
Shi Ran had never imagined that a night without Zuo Yelin could become so agonizing.
She looked at the unextinguished lights and the two young women lying on their sides without changing their sleeping postures, then helplessly called out to the smart assistant and requested to turn off the lights.
The bedroom plunged into darkness.
Shi Ran began to drift off to sleep.
In her daze, she heard muffled conversations.
...
The echoing cheer still lingered in his heart, yet Wunqi had already transformed into a giant, grotesque toad with its white eyes rolled up to the sky.
Kaede Sakuragi also knew this; right now, he was nothing more than a burden. Since that was the case, as long as he stayed out of the way and hid properly, it was something Sakuragi could easily manage.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu Yi dashed toward Lu Qi, launching a right high whip kick straight at Lu Qi's head.
A year later, Nan Wuxiang was meditating on a flat rock. Beside him coiled a juvenile dragon about three feet long, looking foolishly at Nan Wuxiang, who was bathed in a golden glow. By now, the dragon had not only grown a bit larger, but its scales shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight, already beginning to take on the true majesty of a dragon.
Eriri asked with some curiosity, unable to fathom what kind of position this grand normie could possibly hold. Music, perhaps? She seemed to remember this fellow knew how to play the piano.
By around dusk, Su Jiu cast an invisibility spell on Sun Shaoguang and himself, and then led Sun Shaoguang toward the Qian estate.
Overcome with shyness, Emilia hurriedly released Yile and rewarded him with a kick that sent him flying off the bed, acting as though she hadn't been the initiator just last night.
The man tried to persuade Lu Qi to turn back. He knew very well that three years ago, it was in this very forest that Lu Qi had been injured. At that time, having no other choice, he could only escort Xue'er away and failed to protect Lu Qi properly, a fact that filled him with lingering remorse. Therefore, slim though the chances might be, he had always prayed in his heart that Lu Qi could grow up safely.
Shi Wansui charged bravely at the very forefront, plunging straight into the Wu army's ranks where he encountered Xie Jing, whom Shi Wansui promptly ran through with a single spear thrust. The Wu army scattered and fled in all directions. The victorious Jingzhou army withdrew in triumph, only to find that Zhang Xutuo was nowhere to be found.
Kirino felt her shoulder being tapped lightly twice. Having just relaxed with her guard down, she was so startled that she jumped three feet into the air.
With a stern sweep of Ye Bo's gaze, Ye Che instantly shrunk back, losing all the swagger he had previously displayed in front of Bo Ye, and walked over to Shen Tang with great reluctance.
When she spoke, her tone was calm, as if she had already let go of everything, and she smiled brightly at Xu Zhexia through the camera lens.
However, Navarro hung persistently onto his back with one arm, preventing him from jumping.
Clearly, Mourinho failed to understand Li's meaning, continuing to talk about stories involving his wife while inquiring about Helen.
Hearing Shen Tang's words, Bo Ye froze for a moment. He hadn't expected Shen Tang to ask such a question out of the blue, yet somehow it didn't feel entirely unexpected.
Discovering the truth, Tao Yingying fell into utter despair. That very night, she set fire to the villa Zheng Lei had given her and leaped into the Huangpu River.
After an entire match, they were indeed famished. Although they had grabbed a quick bite on the team bus ride back, how could those simple snacks compare to freshly prepared food from the team's dining hall?
It was likely that the acquisition of Lihua had fallen through, making her even more ashamed to continue lingering at the Feng Corporation.
Only then did Jiang Guoguo and Gu Han-yu realize that the footage of them descending from the sky in a helicopter days earlier to battle Gu Changling had already been captured on camera and uploaded to the internet.
"Actually, it's quite normal. After all, they don't usually get to interact with celebrities and artists, so feeling a bit excited during their first time seeing one is understandable." Chen Xu smiled, effectively arguing for an opportunity for the interviewees waiting behind.
Li Qingfeng was currently only a lower-grade immortal, vastly inferior in strength and realm. Without the protection of chaotic treasures, his own martial prowess was clearly no match for his opponent.
