Day 28: My Brother Loves Me Too Much

Page (1/3)

Whenever she saw other children outside being loved by their mothers, wearing flower-patterned clothes their mothers had made for them, and eating delicious food, she would hide far away or go looking for Old Eighth Qiu and ask him, “Where is my mother?”

The Maitreya Buddha gave a helpless smile. With Zhen Yuanzi guarding the Investiture Altar, it would probably be impossible to exploit any loopholes.

Wang Miaomiao instinctively glanced around nervously. When she saw Gu Cheny an lying beside her, she suddenly felt reassured.

Although her level of battle energy was not high enough, she was nevertheless highly proficient in Chinese martial arts.

Thinking that Old Madam Li would be leaving in a few days, Old Madam Wang was not in a very good mood either. But separation was inevitable someday, so she had better prepare early and make full use of every opportunity before then.

“That Chu Yunshu really is no good, stirring things up like this,” Ren Qing muttered with a soft curse.

Zhao Xu did not turn around or ask her anything. Yao He’an left directly with Yao Hexiao. When they passed the main building and saw that the lights in Su Lingshui’s laboratory had already gone out, they returned straight to the dormitory.

Most of the onlookers were stunned when they saw those three words. Although the shopkeeper of the rice store did not recognize Jing Ye himself, he knew that the Regent’s name was Jing Ye. He was instantly frightened stiff.

They obviously could not continue talking like this. Qin Rong obediently fell silent and continued hiding in the back, playing an emotionless decorative vase.

Ye Suman grew somewhat bashful. After all, Uncle Quan was the first elder she had met who was connected to Qing Lian.

It had been this way back in training school, and it was still this way now in the special police unit. It seemed she was destined to be utterly under that woman’s thumb in this lifetime.

Remembering this, he no longer felt nervous about going onto the battlefield. Instead, he became completely immersed in Lin Chuan’s expressions and voice.

By now, Yun Hao’s cultivation had reached the fourth level of the Spirit Profound Realm. Compared with before, his strength had improved greatly, allowing him to withstand even more powerful forces of law. Thus, Yun Hao decided to continue trying to climb to the fifth level of the Guanghan Tower.

“Fifth Prince, perhaps this is simply the will of Heaven. Heaven’s mandate cannot be defied; all we can do is give it our best.” Old Hong shook his head, looking utterly exhausted.

She really was beautiful when she smiled... He Xi’s thoughts were exceptionally complicated at that moment; a million words omitted.

It could not exactly be called locked. The door had merely been fastened with a length of iron wire. Qin Yi barely exerted any force before it swung open.

The leather cord restraining the two of them was roughly six compartments high. The source of the trap lay behind another elevated shelter. He Xi quickly charged over, attempting to cut through the cord, but when he arrived, he realized that his idea had been far too simple.

Duan Zhen swallowed the pill and then sat cross-legged. With the aid of his cultivation technique, he finally suppressed the backlash of demonic energy within his body. The black lines covering his skin gradually faded back beneath it.

“Mom’s doing pretty well. She can eat and drink normally. It’s just that Dad’s a little too nervous, and I don’t know how to comfort him. After all, I’ve never given birth myself.” By the end, he could not help blushing.

Everyone’s gaze instantly turned toward Wen Shu. Wen Shu felt extremely awkward, with the strange guilt of a traitor.

Zhan Zihao addressed Xuanyuan Pofan as “cousin” again and again with great familiarity. The mere mention of Xuanyuan Pofan seemed to fill him with pride and prestige.

It seemed they had been acting under someone else’s orders. What a clever method—being smothered to death by a pillow left no external injuries. The autopsy report could simply state: “The suspect died of asphyxiation during sleep.”

Although Ma Yu smoked, she rarely did so, usually only when social obligations required it. Today was the first time she had actively asked for a cigarette.

Ma Jiaojiao looked at Ning Ruoyu. She was only a newcomer, and not even a formally trained actress. How good could her acting be? Surely she would be even more awkward than Ma Jiaojiao herself.

I nodded. My cousin changed my bandages, then placed a U-shaped plastic board beneath my elbow and hung my arm around my neck again. This would minimize the chance of touching the wound.

Void powder could restore vitality to spirit medicines and accelerate their maturation. That had been the idea Hao Ran had come up with earlier.

At the time, Ling Xiao had been disheartened and wandering the world. Every day, he did nothing but drink, and only drunkenness could keep his heart from aching.

Lulu was enveloped in a green sphere of light, floating in midair. She stared at the giant python with an anxious expression, clearly wanting to help but unable to do anything.

“Chen Yufeng, I truly hate you!” With her eyes closed, a tear slowly fell. Yue Sheng used all her remaining strength to speak those words. The instant she closed her eyes, she lost consciousness.

Ren Hongfeng and Zeng Sai were both fond of drinking, though neither could hold his liquor particularly well. One bottle of strong spirits each had already left them barely conscious, let alone the additional bottle of beer. The two of them staggered back to their room, collapsed onto the bed, and immediately fell into deep, heavy sleep.

“Damn it!” The Wolf’s five thousand cavalrymen had failed to encircle the enemy and instead become targets for the opposing horsemen to hunt down. Their fate was precarious. Suo felt as though he were being restrained at every turn. Every punch he threw struck an iron plate, and the plate was so hard that pain shot through his fist.

Su Mo felt embarrassed as well and repeatedly thanked the old fisherman. Only later did he learn that the donkey met the angler every day because it was truly craving the fish in the lake. Su Mo could not help becoming annoyed and refused to speak to it for several days. Then, to demonstrate his magnanimity, he took the donkey up the mountain with him.

When Li Gang saw the golden-haired man standing there in a daze, he had originally intended to punch Da Huazi. Yet he had many misgivings. He was afraid that he might show off too much and later be unable to back down, which would cause serious trouble.

Mian Niang froze. This was completely beyond her expectations. In her understanding, something so simple would earn no more than a single reward. Her hands trembling, she looked toward Gong Wulang, hoping to find confirmation in his eyes that she had not heard incorrectly.

“What? The thing beneath the ground is connected to this endless snowfall?” Jade Spider exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly pressed him for an answer.

The Snow Fox spoke in a lofty, commanding tone, just like her master Shangguan Yu, leaving the other party no right to refuse.

After work that evening, Dajun tidied himself up and planned to pick up Li Mei from school. He had left later than usual because his master had assigned him a task, and he intended to go home only after finishing it. Almost everyone else had already gotten off work.

I watched Grandma disappear little by little, unsure when I would ever see her again.

Of course, Li Yang did not have the time to sit here and keep watch over the place at all hours. For that reason, he had specially developed a ghost-catching device.
