Volume One, Chapter 37: I Know What I’m Doing

There were still scattered groups of people inside the venue. Xu Qingning did not intend to pull her hand away from Pei Xi’s grip, allowing him to lead her out.

In the car, the two remained seated on opposite sides, yet Pei Xi kept a firm hold on her wrist, refusing to let go. Even Han Yan, who was driving, sensed that something was amiss.

"Boss, are you two... having an argument?"

Ning Xin had not tasted her mother’s cooking for a long time; by the time she finished the meal, she was already in tears, which in turn caused Li Ruomei to weep as well.

"I believe you are all the best, but I hope you will become even better," Nan Kezhan added.

Qin Yi snapped his fingers, and without a word, Tao Sisi wrote a check and tossed it to Li Ergou.

"What? You’re saying the previous incident where someone was injured by crashing into a wall was actually aimed at you?" Yao Juan asked in surprise.

Three days ago, officials and wealthy merchants from various provinces and even the capital had already gathered in Dabao Village to celebrate Elder Jiao’s birthday.

He had originally made a military pledge to ensure the success of this mission, but now it seemed that although the first step had been taken, he had failed in reality—and it was a catastrophic failure at that.

*Hiss...* He Xi drew a sharp breath. Honestly, he did not want to pick any of the four options; they all felt like lines that would only invite insults. What was he to do? Caught in an endless dilemma, He Xi carefully compared them and ultimately chose the second one.

"Hmm, this is... wild ginseng..." Seeing the ginseng growing under a tree, I said in surprise. After all, based on my knowledge, this type of prairie ginseng shouldn't be easy to grow, but I knew I couldn't be mistaken, so I pulled it out by the root.

During those few days, Qin Lang stayed with her in the hospital. The doctor ordered her to rest in bed, so Qin Lang watched her all day long. He wouldn't even let her get up to go to the restroom, carrying her back and forth instead, to the point where she was almost afraid to drink any water.

Yun Hao arrived in front of the stone gate, placed his hands upon it, gathered his strength, and gave it a hard push.

Fortunately, Shui Danjing had no intention of getting to the bottom of it. She turned and tugged on her disciple’s ear, which finally woke Yu Xiuxian. Seeing that it was his master who had disturbed his rest, he blushed deeply and stood up, looking flustered.

If she had been told earlier, she never would have even thought about being friends with Nangong Chuli.

Lastly, please do leave a comment; otherwise, it’s quite awkward. A simple greeting or a short critique would suffice.

He Xifeng smiled and said no more; to say anything else would be breaking the rules. However, this was enough for Tantai Feng. After thinking through a few things, Tantai Feng sneered, "If you are afraid of trouble, perhaps you really should return to Great Qin now."

The painter felt dizzy and paced back and forth in the room, unaware that Jiang Cheng had already set up an array outside the door.

After a long while, the person standing spoke, "This is the reason." The voice belonged to a middle-aged man, sounding serious and indifferent, though the answer was completely baffling.

In truth, this assessment was optional for this generation of disciples, as its purpose was merely to evaluate their talent in soul cultivation to determine if they needed to pursue that path.

"Don't scare me, Manager Li is old enough to be my father!" Mu Yang said as he watched Feng Zhuying hang her bag on the wall.

Heaven is my witness, ever since breaking up with Min'er, he had been pursuing Siyan. He had been practicing self-restraint for the past few months, living like a puritan, and had absolutely not been out philandering.

After finishing it, she opened it to reveal a heart-shaped pull-out greeting card. Yue Feifei curiously tugged on the pink ribbon tied to the bottom of the paper strip, and seven heart-shaped origami pieces of different colors slid up and down accordingly.

After speaking, she pointed outside. Gao Linghua listened carefully and realized that the outer courtyard had descended into chaos, with the sound of clamor rising wave after wave, making her feel worried.
