Chapter 40: The Turmoil

By the time Qiao Weiwei arrived, a dozen reporters had already surrounded the residential complex.

Fortunately, the security of the complex was quite decent, and they were not swarming the entrance.

She went to Fang Xue's apartment, had Fang Xue put on sunglasses and a hat, and led her out.

As they passed the entrance, a sharp-eyed reporter spotted Fang Xue getting into the car.

He immediately rushed forward to block their path.

Luckily, Uncle Liu was a skilled driver and braked just in time, narrowly avoiding an accident.

"Miss Fang, do you still believe that Zhou—"

That was a shelf against the wall beside the wardrobe, holding eleven bizarre and abrupt dolls.

As for why they took the yacht out for a spin instead of waiting to stop Denis from boarding, it was because by the time Li Yu found out, the yacht had already departed.

Having been warned, Old Ming felt that the village was not very interesting anymore. After wandering around a bit, he headed back home.

Ye Dou was slightly startled, then swept his spiritual sense across the surroundings to detect any movement, only to discover that quite a few people had gathered nearby.

"I have no relatives in City C, and after so many years of marriage, my friends have all drifted away. In the end, there are only the two of you left," Tan Lisha said with deep regret. What on earth had a failed marriage brought her?

In an instant, their eyes met. Shu Man felt as though her heart had been fiercely gripped by something, sending a sharp, clear, and profound pang through her chest.

The old woman hurriedly wiped away her tears and voluntarily recounted the events surrounding how she became separated from the children back then.

Therefore, there was no need for her to waste everyone's time refining every single type of pill all the way from the first grade to the sixth grade.

"Alright, don't worry too much. If you need my help, give me a call." Lin Junyuan did not know what urgent business Zheng Minzhi had that required Fu Qiu's help while keeping him in the dark, but he chose to leave nonetheless.

The medicinal pills in his hands had accumulated to an unprecedented peak, and Ye Yi began to take action. His sales plan was divided into two parts: one part at the Four Seas Firm in Baihe City, and the other at the Xiao Family's Heavenly Medicine Residence in Qingluo City.

If this could be achieved, some officials who still harbored loyalty to the former Ming dynasty could also accept it. Hou Xuanyan himself held the founding Emperor Taizu in high esteem; the magnificent achievement of driving out the Tatars and restoring China meant he had no objection to paying his respects during the annual sacrifices.

Never in her life had she been mocked like this, and she immediately flushed with anger, conjuring a flame in the palm of her hand that flew straight toward Ye Qing.

"Cut the crap! If you know what's good for you, surrender obediently!" Shi Chun dropped his pretense, slamming his wine cup onto the ground as two dozen rough men swarmed out, brandishing curved sabers at Lin He and the others.

This statement was somewhat overly confident. Zhao Wuque's personality had always been very steady, and generally, he would not utter such boastful and carried-away words.

The male comrades in the classroom were also riled up by Wu Xiang's words, their hormones surging as they shouted in unison.

Lin He hadn't given any of this a thought, because this was not a playful contest, but a life-or-death struggle! As long as he could win, any means were permissible. Just as he had previously used a scheme to lure the wolf king into a trap, the process did not matter; only the result did.

So this was why Ye Tianqi's family befriended and trusted Ye Qing. The doubt in Ye Qing's heart was finally resolved.

On that day the old emperor forcefully made her empress, she had worried that her father would storm into the palace brandishing a kitchen knife, but to her surprise, he never made a move.

Xiao Yuling nodded indifferently, continuing to sip his wine quietly, speaking very little and barely eating anything.

Seeing Fu Hu's actions, Yan Hu and the others all wore expressions of disdain. They knew very well what kind of person Fu Hu was; if he could cook, sows could climb trees.

However, this war of the star domains could not be ended in a moment or two, while the cultivators of Chitian continuously concentrated their forces to attack those of the Tianfang star domain, pointing their spearhead directly at Tianmu Star.
