Chapter 28: Scolded to Death for Filing a Complaint

Jiang Yi irritably lit a cigarette, puffing on it with a furrowed brow as if to vent his frustration.

Lin Xiaoxiao sensed that something was wrong and felt a faint sense of unease. Could his bad mood be related to that bitch, Qin Wanyi, again? She felt a deep resistance, but for the sake of the man before her, she suppressed her displeasure and immediately put on a gentle smile.

Many people suggested sending scouts to follow them in secret; otherwise, it would be difficult to guarantee the progress of the entire operation.

At the same time, within the Sky-Lock Formation, the crimson region vanished instantly, while the remaining orange, yellow, and green regions slowly dissipated as well.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Zhang Rong felt a sharp pain on the other side of his cheek, sending him crashing into a nearby table.

Because her cover was as a consultant for Stark Industries and an assistant to Potts, she could not afford to make any mistakes if she wanted to avoid suspicion.

Entering through the main gate of the villa, the first things one saw—whether flowers, grass, or trees—were, without exception, withered and dead. The entire villa lacked a shred of vitality, permeated only by the thick aura of death emanating from the decayed vegetation.

"Heh heh, me? To speak seriously, I suppose I am your master," the Taoist said slowly. His voice did not seem to come from his mouth, but rather from all directions at once.

Liu Yifan scanned the crowd with suspicion. He was deeply puzzled, but since his spiritual power had not yet recovered, he decided not to act rashly.

I have already determined his three slots, and since he mentioned on the phone last time that someone had already approached him, the second slot is accounted for. As for the third, I have decided to speak with him today to see if Xiang Yu might be suitable.

With things having escalated to this point, a fight was clearly out of the question. As for the members of the White Dragon Society whose limbs Chen Feng had broken, they could only blame their own bad luck—after all, they were the ones who dared to attack Chen Feng.

Employee turnover at Xinerui was not high, and the demand for staff was moderate, so the HR department was not particularly busy.

The thugs regained their ability to move, but one could see their skin turning red at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Amidst the star-filled sky, the constellations shifted to reveal a portal, identical to the one the Overlord had used to send Ying Bai away not long ago.

There was no helping it; lawyers had a terrible reputation, often seen as bloodsucking scoundrels who would help the wicked just for money. Even though this was often the truth, their assistance was indispensable.

She looked through them carefully, placing the items she didn't like or weren't suitable for her to wear at the moment deep inside the walk-in closet.

It was clear that Meng Yuping and Huang Chunqiu were old acquaintances, and one could tell they shared a good relationship.

After chatting for a while longer, she had the bodyguard bring the items over. Per the lawyer's instructions, they were to deliver the originals, keep paper and audio copies, and ensure the police provided a receipt of delivery.

The new CEO, Mr. McCord, sat across from him. After hearing the full story, Ye Dongqing shook his head with a wry smile: "That old man... Rest assured, I will find time to have a word with Mr. Madoff. If nothing goes wrong, he should agree to apologize to me."

Zhou Donghuang’s gaze turned icy in an instant. Before Shi Hao, the head of the great noble house, could react, Zhou struck like lightning, his hands forming claws and seizing the man by his arms.

"Your Majesty, Su Ningxiang is my sister, and she is already betrothed to the Marquis of Qilin; I fear she cannot enter the palace to serve you." Giving Fei Zhong and Bigan a deep look, Daji’s tone turned cold, devoid of her earlier allure.

Qin An'an was left stunned in place; by the time she came to her senses, Ji Chenxi was nowhere to be seen.

Ziyang produced a high-grade divine artifact sword and a set of high-grade divine artifact armor. The armor was far more valuable than the sword.
