Chapter 51: This Waste Too Much Time

The couple studied them for quite a while, but aside from the rare variety and exorbitant price, they could find nothing wrong with the two pots of orchids.
"Could it really just be a coincidence?" Lin Yuntang asked, puzzled.
"How is that possible?" Meng Wenxuan replied without hesitation.
The people monitoring Nanny Liu had already sent word that she had stayed in Lancheng for three days, and these orchids had been bought on the very first day she arrived. If there wasn't some conspiracy targeting them, she wouldn't have had any reason to—
"No, please don't kill me. I have already refused to cooperate with the Japanese," Wu Nu said in rather fluent English.
"This Governor's wife is certainly capable and decisive." Seeing Madam Sun step forward and quell the matter in just a few moves, Lian'er praised her sincerely.
The company commander cursed under his breath. He knew that the frontal force of two companies was insufficient to search the area Zhou Youfu required, and if the enemy was well-trained, they would hear the sound of the vehicles and avoid them in advance.
A chill crept up Xia Nuo's spine. So it really was Li Ling who did it; how despicable! Xia Nuo was gnashing her teeth in anger.
Although the stolen items were recovered, and she had not been violated in the Blade Gang, she could still be considered very fortunate.
The man chuckled softly and slowly turned around. A face remarkably similar to Ying Nuo's entered Luo Qing's view, but this man possessed a pair of golden eyes. He looked down at Luo Qing with an expression of cold indifference and contempt.
Chen Qi touched the tattoo on her wrist, her eyes blurred with tears. Hidden beneath the tattoo was the scar from her suicide attempt by wrist-slitting. Yuan Yu had given her a house and money, but she had never even set foot in the house, and the money was still left sitting inside it.
Suddenly, Xu Xuangrong's body swayed slightly, a mocking smile lingering at the corners of her lips, while trails of blood slowly seeped from her facial features, though the sneer at her lips only grew a few shades more intense.
The arrayed fleet maintained a speed of fifteen knots in order to consume the final stretch of time and distance, but the carrier deck remained cleared, with only a few Zero fighter planes left for reconnaissance.
Could it really have been an accident? Carrying such doubts, Meng Feifei found it utterly incomprehensible.
The Blazing Phoenix Emperor was a legendary figure, holding an exceptionally important historical position, especially among the human race.
Hu Yanbin awkwardly touched his nose, only then remembering that Ling Rui had performed some martial arts just last night. Why on earth had he been looking for trouble?
Tony was utterly in awe of his acting skills. Had he not played the game and known some of the behind-the-scenes intel and plotlines, he probably really would have been fooled and deceived by him.
However, facing the immense pressure of the Golden Flame Lion in person had kept her sensitive nerves in a state of constant tension. Now that she was back, that taut tension gradually relaxed, and then a wave of drowsiness washed over her.
Yet this point was currently known only to Tony; everyone else obviously assumed that the Virtual Arcane Jade was universal across all mirror worlds.
Just then, however, White Steward pushed the door open, gazed at Peifeng lying on the bed, and walked slowly toward him.
"Alright, please show your martial arts license!" the staff member said, momentarily stunned upon seeing such a great beauty as Bai Ruoxi.
A peak First-Rank is a peak First-Rank; even when injured, they can easily defeat these weaklings at the early First-Rank stage.
"Let's give it a try. We've got nothing to lose anyway, and who knows, it might just work?" He smiled mysteriously and declared the meeting adjourned.
Finally, she silently handed over the twelve sets of dowry chests she had prepared in advance, and then with a wave of her hand, she dismissed Xifu.
The shoulder of the man in white leaning against the pillar moved slightly, and the aura surrounding him completely changed from the moment before.
"Then I must thank Senior Brother. Senior Brother is exceptionally skilled in the art of wellness and longevity; with Senior Brother's word, I can rest easy. The old hidden injuries in his body had only recently healed, and now new ones have been added." Perhaps his death in a previous life was partly due to the depletion of his own body.
Chu Tianyi flipped through the duplicate copies of the prescriptions he had written, verifying the notes on each medicine packet against the prescription one by one.
