Chapter 181: Signing the Duo!

Inside the office, the female secretary sat on a chair with her legs pressed closely together and her hands folded over her abdomen. A pair of slender, beautiful legs encased in flesh-colored silk stockings looked particularly alluring.

Xu Ze sat on the sofa opposite her, examining the young woman before him with interested eyes.

Meanwhile, Sun Na and the fatty stood behind Xu Ze respectively.

Driven by a woman's instinct, Sun Na gazed at the female secretary with a guarded expression, while the fatty's breathing grew somewhat rapid.

Who could possibly understand this? Previously—

Xuanlong, tears and snot streaming down his face, hoisted Ye Yu onto his back and rushed into the Valley of Silence. He whipped out a bottle of medicinal pills and poured them frantically down Ye Yu's throat. Overcome with grief, he then fished out half of a Seven-Star Herb, grinding it back and forth between his fingertips in a desperate attempt to brew some miraculous medicine.

One must admit that human potential can only be maximized under immense pressure.

Yang Guo'an also hurriedly directed the crew to drive the large cargo truck away. The other police officers quickly took cover along the highway and urgently called in fire trucks.

Heizi's eyes began to water again. What a rugged and star-crossed fate was his; were there truly no decent people within the Divine Academy?

Later, after several consecutive days of demanding payment, when he still refused to pay, I completely halted work. I told him explicitly that work would not resume until every last cent of the arrears was cleared in full. Once our relationship went sour, he even sent men on two separate occasions to threaten me. Seeing him resort to these tactics, I realized that if I didn't make the first move, he certainly would.

A child not raised by one's own hands is much like another's child. Lord Thirteen did not possess the noble sentiment and infectious charisma of Lord Bai, nor the ability to effortlessly spirit away anything that passed before his eyes into his own pocket.

"Do you want to know why I am going to kill you?" Ye Yu stared fiercely at Xiong Batian and said, "Because I am Ye Ziyu!" As the words fell, his hand rose and his sword descended, plunging fiercely into Xiong Batian's chest.

Since it was the Emperor's command, all other protocols remained the same: kneel where kneeling is required, and be exempt where exemption is granted.

The Grand Empress Dowager was currently playing a game of chess with Mo Liang. Seeing the Grand Empress Dowager summon him over, Chu Changge showed not the slightest hesitation and walked right up. He sat upright on the side, observing the chess game contested between the Grand Empress Dowager and Mo Liang.

"Young Master Qin, I think you'd better stay out of this matter. Just now, the leadership's stance was very clear: once the investigation reaches Huang Pei, it stops here. Besides, Ross's lawyer has already arrived, so I'm just on my way to handle the paperwork and release him." Deputy Director Li brandished a piece of paper in his hand, shaking his head at Qin Fen with a look of helpless reluctance.

The next moment, however, space surged, and the two of them vanished instantly from the spot, reappearing outside the Lin family estate.

The place where Yun Qing and the others found themselves was indeed perilous. It was a winding corridor with buildings on both sides and a heavy stone ceiling overhead.

As the electric arcs flickered and spat, an earth-shattering, peerless aura burst forth. Even more astonishingly, as Shi Sansheng changed the hand seals in his grip, those electric arcs transformed into bolts of lightning shaped like human figures.

Wu Yong was immensely gratified. He patted his shoulder and said, "The Nine-Turn Nether Pill is indeed extremely precious, and I have a great need for it as well. Therefore, I cannot give it to you for the time being, but I will compensate you with other benefits." With that, Wu Yong pointed outside at the frozen Three-Headed Divine Python and Colorful Poison Toad.

Hikaru Genji's wife, Lady Aoi, was pregnant. One day, while riding out in an ox-cart, she had a dispute with Genji's lover, the Lady of Rokujo, after which the lady's living spirit detached itself to torment Lady Aoi.

For some reason, she recalled hearing once that the Kingdom of the Eastern Sea held a ritual for sacrificing to the sea, and Ziyun of the Eastern Sea served as the Grand Priest.

The Bishop of Marseille also felt that discussing this matter in public was indeed inappropriate, so he nodded in agreement.

When Huang Qi finished speaking, he prepared to bow deeply, but Lin Yu smoothly intercepted him. It seemed he had anticipated Lin Yu's action, rising to his feet in one fluid motion, flowing like moving clouds and flowing water without a trace of stiffness.

Every single sentence Yun Qing spoke drove straight into Consort Yi's heart. Zong Jing, watching from the side, was utterly dumbfounded. He discovered that the longer he spent in Yun Qing's company, the more new facets of her character he would uncover—facets that sometimes left one completely torn between laughter and tears.
