“We won’t hold back.” Zhang Jing felt no embarrassment at all; after all, how many times in the past two years had he freeloaded food and drink from Su Wan?
“There’s no reason! If you don’t accept, then don’t come into my house to eat!” Jian Yi demanded with absolute authority.
This time, the Phantom Thief Kid’s warning letter was also sent by him; he wanted to regain his confidence! At the same time, clear his own name, and preferably get rid of that Qiuse.
Liu Yue hurriedly responded, opened the back door, let a few people in, then peeked out to look around. Seeing no one nearby, she locked the door and anxiously followed Song Qinghuan and the others to Xuan Ying’s room.
Knowing the Chen family was going through hard times now, she decided not to act for the moment, but she remembered this matter, waiting for a chance to teach the Chen family a lesson later.
With Fu Jingshen’s magnetic voice, Gu Nian’s beautiful eyes flickered in surprise. Fu Jingshen did not answer her question but instead threw out his own.
“Ke’er?” Broly and Old Kai’s mouths dropped open as they looked at that familiar, charmingly smiling face, their expressions full of astonishment.
“But since no concrete evidence has been found yet, if you want others to believe you, then please provide the proof.”
When he smiled at Xue Zhixia’s moment of panic, he noticed that Xue Zhixia had been burned.
Hearing Xue Qi’s tone, the empress realized that Xue Yancheng’s affair with Ruan Yingying was unknown to Xue Qi.
While leaping through the air, he caught the skeleton bone arrow with his Xuan Jade hand, tightly gripped it, then threw it out using a hidden weapon technique, piercing through the skeleton bone shield and breaking the skeleton swordsman’s joint.
Since Du Gu Zhan was not needed to play in the upcoming match, he was happy to have peace and quiet, strolling out of the arena to explore around.
He had already accepted his first starring role in an anime, a fairly exciting adaptation, with the official dubbing set to begin tomorrow.

Jiang Zhige’s vision began to blur, reliving a life spanning ten thousand years, fading away like a bubble.
Xia Tianming shared part of his consciousness with Venom, letting it know what its next mission was.
Since Jiangnan Group was among the top enterprises in Jiangnan, many companies naturally gathered here today.
Her phone kept buzzing on the table; she flipped it over again, her expression subtle and hard to describe.
That girl—didn’t she see his calls and messages? Why hadn’t she contacted him? What happened? She was ignoring him?
After all, there were too many NBA stars, Yao Ming was just one of them—one of the strongest players among them.
Now he needed to break through the critical point to reach his next evolution, requiring 10,000 points of Black Light energy, but the ways to obtain energy were also multiplying.
Lin Fangpei said nothing, just listened silently as Lin Wei muttered on—this was unlike Lin Wei, yet it was.
Xiao Caifu’s outstretched hand quickly spread a chill, and a sense of dread instantly crept over her whole body. Her already pale face instantly drained of all color.
Qin Jingyu glared at him: “You’re despicable! Isn’t this making things difficult for him?” Obviously, he was threatening her life, and that fool Cheng Thirteen naturally obeyed.
Before Lin Wei could finish speaking, Zhang Zuo interrupted. Lin Wei frowned, genuinely disliking the man’s condescending tone and expression, yet since this was someone else’s territory and she seemed to be here for a business discussion, she held back.
It was easier said than done—so many people needed corneal transplants. How long would he have to wait? He couldn’t stop worrying about Huicai, not knowing where that fool was now, if she had gotten up, or if she had seen the note he left.
Song Xiwei, sitting there as well, felt heartbroken seeing Huicai crying. He wished he could step forward and hold her, wipe away the traces on her cheeks, but his status forbade it. Watching her suffer helplessly, that feeling was unbearable.

Huicai stiffened—he said he wanted to go home with her? She felt happy inside but appeared flustered.
“Hey, hey, don’t press, don’t press, my eyes, my eyes fell to the ground.” He struggled under the weight of the crowd above, helplessly reaching out to fumble on the ground, while the pushing and shoving continued relentlessly.
The man raised his head at the sound, his eyes wide with shock, as if trapped in a nightmare.
The two naturally couldn’t be third wheels, but they still needed somewhere to sit. Unfortunately, every bench they passed was occupied—without exception, by couples.
The doctors waited all afternoon with no results, only then realizing they had been fooled by Old Kong.
Each side had terrifying forces numbering in the millions; now, finally, a full-scale clash erupted.
At this moment, Ling Yun’s figure flickered, landing steadily on a branch of a large tree not far behind. Though still devoid of any trace of smoke or fire, the forced repositioning during the prior fight showed that dealing with Lei Ying’s furious strike was not as overwhelmingly one-sided as it seemed.
Tao Xiong said, “Alright, everyone quiet down and stop.” The hairy-faced man expressionlessly retreated beside Tao Xiong without a word; Brother Li also returned to his seat, and Monkey Brother made no move.
“Unconscious? For a day and a night?” Jun Mocheng seemed incredulous at these words; after searching his mind thoroughly, he found no trace of such a memory.
