Chapter 51: The Racetrack, Part 2
"What a coincidence, sister~" An Sheng walked over to greet Ning Chu.
When Ning Chu saw her, her eyebrows furrowed slightly before quickly smoothing out. Then, she looked at the man beside her—Chu Yao? No wonder An Sheng was able to appear here.
Standing to the side, Mu Zhiyuan acted as though she had finally found Ning Chu's weakness. "Isn't this the illegitimate daughter from your family, Ning Chu? They used to say in elite circles how well-taught your mother was, keeping your father whipped like a dog, but now this seems a bit laughable~ After all, everyone knows—"
"Is this your car?" Cui'er pointed reluctantly at the Citroën. To be honest, a Citroën wasn't considered a particularly fancy car, but the difference between a sports model and a regular car was still quite obvious. Moreover, in this era, let alone a Citroën, just owning a Santana was already a huge deal.
Luo Xi did not stand on ceremony either; she sat down and started eating without a shred of decorum, as if she hadn't eaten anything in days.
"Eighth Brother!" The moment he saw the Eighth Prince emerge, the Tenth Prince looked as though he had suffered the gravest grievance, his naturally loud voice becoming even more booming.
"You already know?" This was the only reason the Ninth Prince could think of to explain why Mu Xiwei wasn't panicked. Biru, standing nearby, had been stunned into silence the moment she heard those words.
Ever since that day, Lillard hadn't appeared for a long time. She heard that a major crisis had befallen the vampires, and she wondered if Lillard was safe now.
That figure gradually blurred... Tears burst from her eyes. She actually couldn't bear to part from him; the pain in her heart was as though ten thousand ants were densely gnawing at her flesh, drinking her blood, and devouring her soul.
The Yamaguchi family had run into some trouble recently. Fortunately, this trouble essentially came down to a matter of money. As everyone knew, any problem that could be solved with money wasn't really a problem at all.
Damn it, Li Danu forged weapons wholeheartedly for them, only to end up being held responsible for them too! How could that possibly make any sense?
Zhai Rang fully adopted his suggestions and successfully captured county towns such as Jintii Gate, Xingyang, and Liyang. This greatly improved the strategic situation of the Wagang Army and provided them with a secure base.
The interrogation room was located on the lowest underground level, making it the dampest area. Just outside the door of the interrogation room, a dim stone staircase wound its way upward, leading straight to the second-to-last level underground.
Among the dazzling jewelry, Xue Yan selected a watch that was understated yet luxurious. However, the price tag on that watch was well over a thousand.
With only three days left and three illustrations still remaining, she felt like she wouldn't make it in time. After all, Yingbai had once spent up to two weeks on a single drawing at most.
With a single, simple sentence from the man, Han Jinyu's attention was diverted away. She hurriedly helped him adjust his tie.
Hearing this, the Fifteenth Prince immediately broke into a delighted smile, then stared longingly at Gu Mingrui, who had already picked up the jar of wine, watching intently as the transparent liquid poured slowly into a crystal-clear goblet.
Mingfen wore a black evening gown accented with bright decorations. The cutout lace on the hem and the subtle floral embellishments woven into the fabric gave her an air of cold, striking, mysterious nobility, displaying her elegance to the fullest.
Early the next morning, Lin Ke handed one hundred thousand yuan to Xueer, telling her and Meijiao to head to the packaging agency recommended by Brother Nan. Worried that they might be in danger, he asked Mingfen to go along with them.
She had just been chewed out by Liu Dong, and her mood was terrible. Every word she spoke now carried the force of a loaded gun.
He was considered a fool in Liu Dong's eyes, but in reality, he wasn't truly stupid. He was simply blinded by love and was now purely set on making trouble.
"Go on with you, you fool!" Perhaps to vent the anger burning inside her, Yaoyao probably had never cursed so much in her entire life.
"Alright, you guys stay here, I have a date with Xinxin!" Having constantly talked about going to apologize to Xinxin, the proud Dafu finally overcame her internal struggle and made an appointment with her today.
As for the Five Elders and Shark Rong, upon hearing this, they felt as though a bucket of ice water had been poured straight over their heads. This was no divine messenger; this was clearly a demon—and a flesh-eating, bone-chewing demon at that. Yet at this moment, could any of them possibly object?
