Chapter Forty: So Much Money (Part One)
Second Sister quickly craned her neck over, letting out an admiring “wow.” Yun Shuang looked at her with an amused expression. “What are you wowing about? Can you even read it?” Second Sister shook her little head honestly. “No, I can’t.” Yun Shuang couldn’t help but laugh and pointed to the characters one by one. “Yun, Yi.” She looked up, eyes crinkling with a smile. “Second Sister, this is your formal name.” Then she read aloud, “Yun, Yin, this is Gou Dan’s formal name.” Yi, signifying—
“All of you, be at ease and sit,” Ying Zheng’s tall, commanding figure stood atop the imperial platform, his powerful voice echoing through the great hall with overwhelming authority.
Just as the hall was filled with astonished faces, a cold smirk twisted Lin Bei’s lips; he waved his hands. The armed police soldiers, ever perceptive, immediately opened a large umbrella to shield the car window, keeping them dry from the rain.
After speaking, Jiang Li did not forget to lower his head and squeeze out a few tears. To the unknowing, he looked truly aggrieved.
Though at the moment Lin Bei could do nothing to Zhuge Tao, Zhuge Tao was equally powerless against him. The figure was none other than Xiao Yu, who roared through the air before crashing hard into Jing Tai Palace, landing at the group’s feet.
In her past life, she and her family were all deceived by Jiang Li’s hypocritical mask. Only at the bitter end did she realize that the car accident involving Jiang Qin and Liu Ru, the poisoning of her eldest sister Jiang Huang, the cliffside accident during her second sister Jiang Zi’s painting trip, and even the fire that killed Jiang He, were all schemes orchestrated by Jiang Li.
After all, a volcanic eruption on a global scale would blanket the sky with immeasurable ash, blocking out the sun. The temperature would plummet to unimaginable lows, making coal and charcoal unimaginably precious.
“My demand is simple. Tell the truth about what happened back then, and I can guarantee you’ll keep your life,” Lin Bei continued.

“Zhuang, if you need my help, just contact me. I’ll be there for you,” Shakela said.

After throwing up, Levis no longer felt dizzy. He was taken for fingerprinting, blood work, photographs, and then escorted to the interrogation room, his wrists cuffed to the stainless steel table.
“We will. We will definitely make it out,” Shangguan Ling’er gripped Shangguan Rou’s hand tightly, tears glimmering in her own eyes.
With a splash, this time Xuanxuan’s composure failed entirely. His eyes widened as he dashed to the pool’s edge, hauling Yangyang out of the water.
The issue with the photos had already been verified in Province A. Perhaps she could ask a teacher from the school there for help. Remembering Teacher Huang, she called directly.
But why help Tara? Was their friendship so deep? Why risk her life to come all the way to Thailand?
“It’s a pity, though. We don’t even know his identity. Who do you plan to kill? Honestly, besides rescuing Prince Qingyang, I also came to find out about this mysterious man.”
A mecha soldier noticed this, sharp-eyed enough to observe the subtle shifts in the high-speed seventh-generation machine.
Today’s audition included both costume fitting and acting, so all the actors arrived early, with makeup and costumes ready before nine o’clock.
