Chapter 33: Dragged into the Photo Studio
Seeing Song Shiyu hesitate and look ready to chase after her, Su Yanyan hurriedly added, "Didn't you say it yourself? Women shouldn't be coddled all the time; you have to give them a slap followed by a sweet treat. That way, she'll be left anxious and uncertain, constantly wondering if you truly like her, until she eventually becomes a kite in your hands, unable to escape your grasp. Have you forgotten that already?"
Song Shiyu paused, looked at Su Yanyan, and suddenly slapped his forehead with a laugh. "That's right! Usually, when I pursue girls..."
For a moment, silence fell. Seeing that Father Shu’s health was failing, the hearts of his subordinates became restless; they clamored for him to give them one hundred thousand each, threatening that otherwise, there would be no way out.
Fang Qingqing’s words were only half-spoken when, for some reason, she abruptly swallowed the rest.
A faint fragrance wafted from the embroidered handkerchief, but these scents could no longer capture Ziwei's attention. All her focus was fixed on the four shimmering, colorful, gold-inlaid characters.
If they chose not to consume it and simply threw it away, then as Shui Bibi had said, they would be discarding the first and sturdiest line of defense for Jinzhou for nothing. It was truly a pity.
"The formation has been tampered with!" Si Mo furrowed his brows. The Rong family did indeed have a formation for emergencies, but it was never active. Furthermore, they were currently trapped within it and unable to leave, which had never happened before.
An City was too chaotic and vexing; she would leave this place. She would live a better life somewhere where Shen Mujian did not exist.
Jie Yi answered truthfully. Although she wanted to help A-Guang respond, she truly had no idea what had happened inside the Qianque Palace at that time.
"It’s just basic courtesy. You’ve helped me so much; the least I can do is say a few words. You’re the one who’s suffered a great loss," Shu Ning joked.
The eunuch paused for a moment, quietly observing the changes on the Emperor's face. He realized the Emperor was captivated by his story, his expression unreadable as he sank into memories.
Looking around, the courtyard was absurdly large. After wandering through just one set of rooms, Leng Ran felt a bit dizzy and disoriented.
Gazing at the massive mountain peak ahead, which towered high into the clouds, it appeared even broader and more majestic than Mount Everest, the highest peak on Earth.
Li Chen narrowed his eyes. Although the power erupting from the eagle blade before him was formidable, in Li Chen’s view, it possessed numerous flaws.
Hearing the wail of the police sirens, the robbers grew even more terrified. Even their hands, gripping their guns, began to tremble slightly.
Li Qingyou walked us all the way to the entrance. He held my hand and sighed deeply. I merely returned his gesture with a smile.
"Team leader, isn't this it?" Cheng Hu looked at Jun Yu with a mournful face, which made everyone burst into laughter.
The gaunt white bones of the phoenix’s wings grazed Jun Yu’s palm, leaving a bloody trail as droplets of blood seeped into the bathtub.
However, if the Snow God truly locked Xuanyuan Nian'er away in the Exquisite Tower, he would naturally be willing to be locked away with her. After all, Xuanyuan Nian'er was being punished because of him, wasn't she? Since that was the case, he was willing to be confined in the Exquisite Tower to keep her company.
Feng Che could no longer feel much pain. Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, his control over his body was now nearly zero. There were likely many ghouls attempting to use their sharp teeth to widen the wounds previously left by the wing-ghosts, but Feng Che no longer cared.
Since entering City A, the two of them seemed to have been ensnared, completely wrapped up by this atmosphere that sought to swallow and assimilate them.
The man also left. As he walked away, his face was radiant with happiness—the pure, untainted happiness of love.
"I don't know what you mean, but I only know that you are shielding the one you love in your heart, while leaving me with no place at all," Prince Jing scoffed.
