Winning a man's heart is useless.

Because of the impact Zhou Qi'an had on her, Yu Xiangsi did not attend the evening welcome banquet.

She found an excuse to stay behind and work overtime.

Qiao Zhilin, however, did arrive, as she was supposed to accompany Ji Jing to receive Zhou Qi'an.

At six in the evening, Qiao Zhilin appeared at Hengxing, meticulously dressed. She walked into Ji Jing's office in her high heels.

"A-Jing, ti—"

"I cherish you like a precious treasure; of course I must hold you in my heart at all times." She turned her head, looking at him without any reservation for the very first time, speaking bold words.

Turning around, she hurled He Ruoxue into the lake. With a "splash," water flew in all directions. Qin Nan was so stunned that she stretched her neck out long, looking at He Lanxi in disbelief while silently giving a thumbs-up.

As for the reason for the reward, it was because Feng Quji had worked tirelessly not only to find Ying Gao a wife who excelled both internally and outwardly, but also to find a suitable match for Prince Huhai, the only one still residing within the Xianyang Palace.

Before she had taken even two steps, her waist was tightened, and Jin Shaobei directly scooped her up by the waist, walking toward his car. He opened the door, shoved her inside, and then locked it.

However, early the next morning, Ji Feifei, having received the news, rushed to the hospital in a whirlwind. Looking at Qi Qian'er lying on the hospital bed, her face was full of worry.

She had schemed and waited for so many years, only to end up with a single word of dismissal, without even knowing the reason. Chu Yun only told her that the Seventh Master did not like her designs.

A strong smell of rust filled her nostrils as Ling Yi slowly lifted her heavy eyelids, her blurry vision gradually becoming clear.

An urge to urinate rushed over her, streaming down her face and pouring into her mouth and ears. He Ruoxue tasted the foul stench in her mouth and could not help sitting up.

Someone who operated with such secrecy—Cao Fengshi was clearly no ordinary figure, nor was his trip to Jiangcheng as simple as coming to recuperate.

Nanfeng rode his motorcycle as if it were a plane, charging straight ahead so fiercely that Shangguan Zhi was terrified into wrapping her legs tightly around him.

"If you've got the guts, come out!" Su Feicong rushed out of the doorway, roaring toward the interior. Indeed, he did not want to make a complete mess of the four people's living quarters.

With a dull thud, the green-haired youth squatted directly on the ground, clutching his face. Instantly, fresh blood began to stream down from between his fingers.

Cilder, having broken out of his cocoon, did not seem overly surprised by the changes in his body. This was because as his bloodline awakened, a portion of his inherited memories had awakened along with it.

What was even more terrifying was that even though his body had executed such a complex strike, the huge wizard's hat Shayed wore did not fall off. In other words, he was still handling the situation with complete ease.

"Captain, even if you want to know something, you at least have to tell me what it is you want to know." Feng Hai appeared somewhat helpless, yet he still stated the reason for not making any further moves.

Yet the result was precisely the opposite. He had never met Zhang Wutian in person, nor did he know that Zhang Wutian's methods were horrifyingly ruthless. Having missed several golden opportunities, he ended up contracting a bizarre illness all over his body.

Thinking of that gate traveling to the Asura Realm—a gate that could not even transmit normally via the disc—the unusual nature of the rift was truly self-evident.

To avoid alerting those powerful figures of the Wan family hidden in the shadows, Zhang Yu withdrew his divine sense after a brief probing session, then put on an air of nonchalance.

I also searched the memories of my past life, yet there was no such thing as blood-binding ownership whatsoever; there were only brief and simple records regarding the Soul-Separating Banner.

"Body of the Blood Demon!" Satan's gaze was likewise chillingly cold. He abruptly opened his mouth and spat out a massive mass of scarlet-shining blood. A boundless life force emanated from this cluster of blood, which then violently shattered, splashing without a single drop wasted entirely onto Satan's body.

"You... Mmph~~" Taeyeon wanted to say something more, but she only felt her lips being sealed by another thick pair of lips. Taeyeon instantly stiffened all over as if struck by lightning, her two pretty eyes wide open.
