Volume 1, Chapter 65: Zhiyao 1

And it was also her first time meeting Pei Zhe.
From then on, her entire future would be filled with nothing but the presence of Pei Zhe.

Xu Jiayao did not understand why he could not pronounce her surname, but the line of poetry he recited and the way he softly called her "A-Yao" sounded truly enchanting.

The Prince of Wu and the Crown Prince had tried to entrap others, only to fall into the trap themselves. They were so enraged they could practically spit blood, yet they had no way to vent their fury on anyone.

Madame Zhou harbored the same intent as Nanny Mu. Seeing that her wish had finally been fulfilled, a sincere expression appeared on her face as she looked toward the mistress of the house.

The short, stout man and the tall, thin elder who had entered the tavern alongside the sallow-faced bandit were both utterly shaken by Li Yu's brutal methods and the instantaneous surge of his cultivation power. Realizing they were no match for him, they simultaneously turned and bolted toward the door.

My great-grandfather was momentarily stunned and was just about to say that it was being held in the arms of the wolf-boy. However, when the wolf-boy came out of the main hall, he was not holding anything in his arms at all. My great-grandfather asked old Daoist Xiao to wait a moment, then turned and walked out of the main hall into the courtyard to take a look at the wolf-boy. Indeed, there was no skull.

He had said countless times before that they could live in poverty, but they must always keep their backs straight and walk through life with dignity and integrity.

True to form, that head steward's wife merely glanced at the Second Prince's Consort before pretending not to understand Nanny Xie's veiled sarcasm. The slightly stiff expression on her face had barely been smoothed over when she wanted to speak again.

Tang Wei understood Wen Wanbing's state of mind all too well. Bing's personality was headstrong, so after failing to dissuade her, Tang Wei simply picked up the phone, called Uncle Chen, and arranged to meet Liu Wenwen out for negotiations.

Why was she suddenly having this dream today? Could it be that her mother in heaven had learned of her growing feelings for Xu Muzhou and had come to warn her?

Over these past few days, the national fortune of the Great Han Kingdom in the north had grown immensely. The entire sea of clouds in Mobei was surging turbulently, with the Nine Heavens Sword Sect as its center, as layers upon layers of heavy clouds gathered beneath the sect's peaks.

Link carefully chewed over her suggestion and felt it was an excellent idea. Since the Benihana Corporation was relocating to Washington State, the company's accounts were held at the Ozette Bank. One could say that the bank's so-called provision of loans was actually lending non-existent money to the farmers and then slowly recouping it.

If Link was going on a long voyage, he naturally needed to bring along a few bodyguards. The ones he brought were, of course, meant for close personal protection. And since they were for close personal protection, they could not stay too far away. Therefore, they lived in the four single rooms located right at the entrance of the passageway leading to the master suite.

Regarding how to snatch the lion and how to monopolize the market to take full control of the northern tourism projects, Ji An temporarily had no concrete ideas. However, for the immediate problem at hand, he was thoroughly confident in his ability to solve it.

Du Yanhang frowned and hurriedly retreated two steps while simultaneously placing floating blade-like ripples of compressed air in the space around him. One served to stall the opponent's advance, while the other was reserved for subsequent attacks.

A debate had broken out in the live broadcast room over whether lions or tigers were stronger. Dahua and Panghu were temporarily matched evenly; both were of similar weight, with Dahua's advantage lying in his sharp claws and teeth—though they were not fighting to the death—while Uncle Panghu possessed a wealth of experience and knew how to handle the play-fight.

"Hello, Officer. My name is Lin Zonghui, and I am the head of the grade year here," Lin Zonghui said, standing up immediately. Although the school did have a vice principal, none of them were present; Lin Zonghui was the highest-ranking official currently here.

The four of them shook their heads one after another. The host smiled and said, "The gambling match begins now." With that, he stepped back to the side.

"Pardon me, but I don't know much about One Piece, nor do I know what kind of big shot you are," Jin Jing said, glancing at him before turning around and kicking away several pirate sailors who had pursued her up onto the rigging.

"Senior Gaosheng and the others have already arrived earlier and told me that you would be coming as well, so I've been waiting here the whole time," Xu Fu said while leading the way.

As well as the reasons for his second visit to the Shen Family Village when determining the route back to the city, and his encounters while at the Shen Family Village—he laid them all out truthfully and clearly, without omitting a single detail.
