Containing Warmth
He only hoped that when the chairman went to punish Annie later, he would be spared; otherwise, his own position would not be secure for much longer.
Gu Weian walked up to his blind date, looked into her eyes, and said sincerely, "I am sorry. I shouldn't have spoken to you with such a dismissive tone, nor should I have said your digestion is poor. I offer you a formal apology." With that, he executed a deep bow, which could be considered a sincere apology.
I smiled as I walked downstairs. When it comes to photo retouching, one should look for Hu Youyou; he could retouch himself so heavily that even Mami Tomoe wouldn't recognize him. Asking her, "Youyou, why does your Moments feed always feature other people's selfies? It's hilarious."
Although his tone was neither gentle nor doting, those two words brought a curved, smiling arc to Song Zhiyue's eyes and brows.
...featuring a high-performance usage mode. I hold immense confidence and expectation for our 'Wolf King' as well. Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our sharing session today. I am truly delighted.
Li Liangfu had bottled up a massive amount of frustration today. Not daring to direct his anger at Li Gang, he naturally vented all his pent-up rage upon the other merchants.
Tang Yilian knew she could not wait any longer. If Qi Li arrived, it would become even harder to find an opportunity to make her move. She pushed the needle into the infusion tubing, ready to inject.
After Xia Yatong finished speaking, Mu Yichen merely glanced at her. Exactly as Xia Yatong had anticipated, Mu Yichen hardly looked at her at all, wearing the quintessential, know-it-all expression of a stubborn, clueless man.
Liang Weirong, who had been about to step forward, was frozen in place by his sharp voice, tears hovering precariously in her eyes—frail and beautiful.
As soon as Zhao Sinian entered, he swept his gaze across the room and caught the sight of Tang Yilian resting in a man's embrace. He strode over, yanked Tang Yilian up by the arm, and dragged her outside.
Meanwhile, Niu Jian finally pulled his pants down to his knees, raised his weapon like a leveled spear, and charged fiercely at his target with a direct thrust into the heart of the dragon. It was precisely at this moment that Wu Yue mustered all her strength, raised her foot and knee, and slammed it viciously against Niu Jian's angrily raging, proudly erect spear.
Zhang Pojing and Zhang Weiyang exchanged a joyful glance, both letting out a sigh of relief. Li Zhibai sipped his wine with a smiling glint in the corners of his eyes. Fat man Li leaped three feet into the air, only to wrench his wound and wince in pain.
Upon hearing Long Tian's words, Jing Peng and Zhan Ming grew excited. Before the God of Songs could even lead the way, they bolted off to play by themselves, likely quite fond of such lively atmospheres.
Screech, screech... The moment it surged onto the blood vessel weapon, the entire blade trembled instantly, and a series of dazzling cracks appeared, rapidly spreading toward the edges.
In this world, she had already lost everything; the only person she could trust was her mother. No matter how old she grew, in front of her mother, she was still just a child.
"Alright, alright, you guys wait for me outside, I'll be right out." Nodding, Qingyuan surged forward swiftly.
Overwhelmed with guilt, Chen Feng offered profuse apologies and explanations to Ling Yu. However, feeling endlessly insulted, Ling Yu refused to listen to his explanations altogether.
Long Tian still remembered how, back within the Ten Directions Annihilation Formation, because he had absorbed the divine power of the Demon King, an extra pearl had appeared in his right sea of consciousness. To this day, Long Tian still hadn't figured out what use that pearl actually held.
"How did he know?" Elder Dan's expression flickered slightly in surprise as he exchanged a glance with the Supreme Elder. Such secret lore was something even he hadn't known, yet a hint of playful amusement surfaced in his eyes.
Everything had been proceeding according to Milan's plan. Just as everyone was orderly entering a house on the outskirts, a sense of drowsiness washed over them all.
Up ahead, the two cars had already cleared the first turn. Navigating this bend once more, Guo Nianfei's movements were exceptionally proficient. The entire drifting process was incomparably smooth; there was not even a noticeable drop in speed before Guo Nianfei had already cleared the corner.
With Kane rushing out at the vanguard and guided by his aura, the remaining nine individuals charged forward right behind him, their formation entirely uncompromised and orderly.
"No need. You guys tidy up first; we'll go have a big meal once I'm back. Someone is treating, after all." With that, Zixiang cast a sideways glance in the direction where those few people had just walked off.
"Lanor seems to know something, but he doesn't seem to want to tell us..." Cassius said.
After all, he was well aware of the sheer magnitude of power Zhuang Jian had obtained atop the Mountain of Worlds. His power practically reigned supreme across this universe, transforming his entire body into billions upon billions of particles, each comparable to the Creation Realm. But even so, what of it?
"Don't you fucking hold me back!" Jayce readied himself to kick me again, but the ape held him back. Then the ape shook his head and let me go! I understood his meaning, so I patted the ape on the shoulder without a word.
Of course, in making this judgment, Guoluo wasn't just relying on guesswork. He could vaguely see most of the clan heads on the high platform whispering among themselves, likely having little understanding of the matter.
After finishing dinner, Lin Peng, as usual, strolled out to the playground with the rest of his classmates.
"Tell me everything about your Brother Xiong. If you dare to hide even the slightest detail, I'll cripple your other hand!" Guan Honglie said in a cold voice.
Ji Yu laughed in exasperation, pinning the person down and kissing them deeply. His tongue intertwined with Luoyi's, and the shameful sound of saliva was delightfully coy.
The savage demon was enraged. Roaring, he pounded against the flagstones, shouting furiously at Men Yubin and the others outside the temple gates, before suddenly leaping out.
Liu Ye and Gao Doudou were neighbors. She knew Gao Doudou was currently an actress, and she also knew that Yi Qian was the same.
"Weren't you sleeping? What are you doing here?" Yang Linlin's tone cooled down.
As dusk approached, Guan Honglie sat atop the car roof while Ountong monitored Number Two and the others as they harvested the source of evolution.
Just at that moment, Gu Mian suddenly noticed some scratches along the bottom of the well wall. Lowering his perspective to look down, he confirmed there were indeed deep brown, chaotic scratch marks clinging to the brickwork.
A prominent nose, thin lips, and sword-like eyebrows slanting upward into his temples beneath his falling bangs. His handsome profile and facial contours were impeccably flawless.
"Third brother, honestly tell me, who was the man you agreed to meet here last time?" Ming Yixuan suddenly asked.
It could be said that this time, everyone within Douyu—from the participating teams to the logistics support crew—was putting in every ounce of effort to secure the trophy at this Cologne tournament.
