Chapter 146 Final Decision
"Ninth Lady, what, what is your relationship with the Thirteenth Lady..." What on earth is going on between you two?
Wang Mian felt as though her entire worldview was collapsing.
Wang Heng was amused by Wang Mian's look of utter shock.
A smile touched the depths of her eyes, and she said softly, "The Thirteenth Lady is exceptionally good. I will take her with me."
Lou Yu had already told her: Zheng Thirteen is reliable.
In other words, she had passed Lou Yu's test and was someone who could remain loyal to Wang Heng.
"Take her with—"
According to the news that just arrived, the Shi clan had not long ago defeated Ran Min, only to rashly launch an offensive and suffer a crushing defeat. Then, disaster struck at home when Shi's own generals colluded with Ran Min, completely undermining his wealth, power, and life.
She indeed had an unspeakable secret regarding him. If she were to tell him as he wished, would he still remain this calm and persist in saying these words?
"Mr. Shen, why do you have no idea how to engage in polite small talk! Isn't it wonderful to just turn a blind eye and let things slide? You just have to put people on the spot!" Yu Chuchu smiled gently. She straightened her clothes, picked up her handbag, and prepared to leave.
A deep and aloof voice abruptly pierced her eardrums. Chu Yun's raised foot froze mid-air, and a sudden wave of chest tightness and shortness of breath washed over her. If she hadn't kept telling herself not to bully a disabled person, Chu Yun would have loved to walk right over, grab him by the collar, and punch him twice.
Jiang Jinyan's gaze never left her. Chu Yun blinked rapidly and diligently helped him straighten the thin blanket on his lap that she had just ruffled. How strange—people always say once bitten by a snake, ten years terrified of well ropes. Yet Jiang Jinyan, having suffered such a severe car accident, could remain so calm and composed just now.
After the rain stopped, Qu Weien drove Shu Ning back. It was difficult for Shu Ning to return to the Shu residence right now, so they went to Qu Weien's apartment instead. When Mr. Shu saw Shu Ning return, he asked about Li Qingwan. Unwilling to make her father worry, Shu Ning could only claim that the police were still investigating and there would be news in a few days.
Chu Yun crunched down on an apple. The worry in Xu Guixiang's eyes just now had been genuine. Everyone possesses an innate instinct to avoid danger; before Song Jianan could even speak, Chu Yun dashed into the room on the second floor directly facing the living room, and without a second word, slammed the door shut in the face of the pursuing Song Jianan.
The King of Goguryeo had already fled, and the main general had issued orders to excavate the burial mound of the Goguryeo king's father, transporting all the precious treasures from the palace away to Longcheng.
Shen Mobei felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, but in the end, he only let out a silent sigh, pulled open the driver's side door, and got inside.
After the intravenous infusion was finished, Shen Mobei took out the ointment given earlier by Dr. Li. Xi Bai accepted it, got down from the bed, walked over to the only mirror in the room, and earnestly applied the medicine to her face.
However, because she was closely following this trial, she had still specifically instructed Luo Renyi, Mu Yan, and the others to take turns monitoring the testing situation here.
Because of her complicity and participation, Mo Ning'er was sentenced to eight years in prison. Such a crime committed by a public figure sent shockwaves across Haicheng.
Shen Muxin's face remained as calm as the deep sea, for he knew that as long as Shen Gengren declared the game had begun, any answer he gave would be a trap.
"You are truly wicked; that young master of the Yang family must have lost all his face." Wang Yuqi burst into laughter.
Lin Wei stood frozen in place, gazing blankly at his arrogant retreating figure. She clenched her hands into tight fists so hard that her nails dug into her flesh, yet she felt no pain at all.
"One last time. If you don't tell me, I'll pretend I never asked, and from now on, we won't even be brothers." Xu Zifeng's tone suddenly shifted.
Xu Mumu took the time to go out and buy poison again, but the result was the same—after Qi Chusu ate some, absolutely nothing happened to her.
"I just couldn't find anywhere else to go, so I was just sitting by the doorway," Qi Chusu said like that.
However, Lord Yan Jie was not like that. Even if there were failures, even if there were mistakes, she would still handle matters according to her own ideas and rhythm.
Xi Na suddenly started in alarm, hastily retracting both hands, and then rolled off Kari ya with a flip. She felt a wave of rapid breathing, while that enchanting scene from just moments ago still echoed in her mind.
Meiluo himself did not drink much; he took a delicate sip and gestured with his slender hand. Several branches laden with charming flowers flew over, landing in his palm. He trimmed the excess leaves, gathered them into a bouquet, and inserted them into a crystal vase.
Regardless of the circumstances, Egypt and Syria, which had received support from many Arab countries, had now also obtained weapon support from the Soviet Union. At the very least, in terms of military strength, they were no inferior to Israel, which was backed by the United States and its allies. This war was bound to be extraordinarily fierce.
An exquisite, delicate, and fair oval face, lightly dusted with subtle makeup and featuring bright, intelligent eyes, resembled a finely carved white jade gemstone. Although it appeared soft and smooth, it gave off a distinct sense of sharp edges and angles. Combined with a well-tailored white lady's suit, she managed to keep all men thousands of miles away without even speaking a word.
The man puzzledly scratched his head and stared at her in silence. Though he could see nothing, the fragrance and warmth radiating from her face still allowed him to determine her distance.
Therefore, when Changshengzi stole the Dao of Life and Death from the Great Sage Phoenix, he also practiced several fire spells inherited from the Great Sage Phoenix along the way.
Vasudeva I, who had barely stabilized his internal affairs, grew increasingly anxious about the advancing Qin army. He strictly ordered Kardephi to lead a massive army of five hundred thousand to rush to the front lines without delay and crush the main force of the Qin army at all costs.
"Oh?" Su Yang keenly sensed that another bizarre event was about to unfold. A special glint flashed in his eyes as he trailed closely behind one of the dinosaurs, constantly moving through the forest formed by the black bronze ancient tree.
Catherine removed her spiked club and hurled it to the ground, the giant weapon smashing a deep pit into the earth. Since ancient times, the spiked club had been a rather sinister weapon; opponents injured by it suffered gruesome fates, and it was generally favored by monstrous powerhouses with peculiar tastes.
If the Lord of Death had not been captured alive and taken prisoner, he might not have had any bargaining chips to negotiate with the Ancestor of Corpses. But things were different now.
"Indeed, those rumors are viciously poisonous," Huang Meng said. The Emperor was still ruling on the throne, yet the Shi family was promising the Lin family an Empress—what kind of talk was that?
It was already so late, yet she had not returned to Lingshui Residence, had not gone to find her mother, nor had she returned here... Was she truly planning to vanish like this? Not even caring about her mother? Not even wanting her son?
