Volume 1, Chapter 56: She Is Not Biological

At the time, when Song Nanyi was found and Su Yu'an appeared there, he had also been suspicious.

Had his constant indulgence made her so spoiled and arrogant that she knew no bounds anymore?

Song Nanyi had no idea what he was trying to achieve with this feigned astonishment.

His acting was so theatrical it was as if he had won an award abroad.

"Wasn't it you who had her kidnap me? Wasn't it you who had her burn me to death? Huo Shixu, stop pretending. Aren't you tired?"

He stared into her bloodshot eyes.

His gaze was profound.

He could not lower himself to mingle with the grassroots and common people like Du Rui did. He simply did not care about his image in the eyes of ordinary people. After all, to exalted figures of imperial lineage like Du Tao, ordinary people were merely ants, unworthy of him putting on any pretense to deal with them.

Despite Guo Peng's demeanor as a wealthy young master, he was not one of those pampered aristocrats incompetent in actual combat. He had once shed blood and suffered injuries for his family, and had dozens of human lives on his hands.

Hearing this, Qin Wuming was left utterly speechless. He had almost forgotten that his true appearance indeed possessed a fatal allure for the opposite sex.

Lame Liu was scared out of his wits instantly. His face turned pale, and he struggled repeatedly, stubbornly refusing to drink this traditional Chinese medicine.

Before coming here, I had anticipated she would say this, so I brought up Guan Qingqing to back me up. I told her that if she refused to help me, I would call Guan Qingqing right then and there to complain, saying I had my head bashed in and had even come to her doorstep in person, yet she still ignored me.

Given his inherent reservations about the inner circles of Tianhai City, wouldn't it be better to accumulate as much strength as possible right now? If venerable figures like Great Tiger and the others could be persuaded to join his side, wouldn't that be even more advantageous?

Su Che, who always followed good advice, exchanged a glance with Bai Miaomiao, and then they simultaneously released their grips. Driven by momentum, Chu Wen and Mila, who had been struggling desperately, drew closer and closer together.

"It... it's not coming back, waah~ What you ate at the very end wasn't the Mermaid Pill, wuwu... It was the Wish-Fulfilling Pill! Wuwu..." Once that heaven-shaking and earth-shattering wailing began, it was completely unstoppable.

Unfortunately, Tianhai was unwilling to part with him, leaving the person in charge at Universal Pictures deeply regretful and extremely dissatisfied with the Chinese branch of Universal Entertainment.

Duan Ruiming looked as though his throat had been gripped by an invisible giant hand. He sat stiffly in his seat, unable to utter a single sound. What on earth was going on with this Lu Fei?

After making her intentions clear, the Primary Consort did not keep them around for long. She ended the morning greeting early and dismissed everyone back to their own courtyards. As Consort Li stepped out of the main courtyard's gates, she deliberately cast a glance at the bellies of Consort Geng and Consort Gualgiya, then swept her gaze over Lady Uya in the corner, before leisurely taking her leave.

A brigade of the Japanese army preparing for battle arrived. The brigade commander surveyed the corpses of the imperial warriors and the puppet army soldiers covering the ground, and ordered the battlefield to be cleared.

During this past month, he and Wen Jiu had gotten along reasonably well, frequently exchanging insights on cooking.

She did not dare to go to school and grew increasingly averse to studying. Now, the only things that could save her were anime and video games, locking herself away at home.

How many years had it been since a program achieved a premiere viewership rating exceeding 2? One would have to count back at least eight years.

Then the three of them chose jewelry together, all dressing up gorgeously. When they made their entrance, Yue Xing and Luan Xuezhu overshadowed everyone else, becoming the center of attention.

This news brought a flash of joy to the man's face, which was immediately followed by disappointment. According to Zhou Yu's account, it was very likely that the shopkeeper was not even in this city at all; he had simply been passing by at the time and casually rescued the civilians present.

"Impertinent!" Before Consort Gualgiya could finish speaking, Prince Rui interrupted her. Prince Rui's tone deepened, but only momentarily. Facing the woman he cherished in his heart, naturally, he could not maintain a stern and majestic demeanor.

Clearly, the other glowing points represented five other Core Formation stage powerhouses, and one of them was not far from him.

Furong thought to herself that although this young master possessed a certain noble aura and peerless looks, he might not necessarily be generous with his wealth. Yet she never expected that the exquisite young master would order every single dish on the menu without even asking the prices—truly a wealthy scion. I wonder what it feels like to be with him on that bed? She mused, a ripple of desire stirring in her heart.
