Volume One, Chapter 49: Helping You—What Can I Gain?

“I set this trap, so why would I let someone go? What do I gain by helping you?”

He roughly pulled the kneeling woman to her feet, pressing her tightly against him, forcing Lin Qingwan to feel the warmth of his skin.

“Alright, then I’ll give it a try. Actually, I came today to talk to you about work. Is it possible not to come to the office every day? I mean, I hope to have more personal time. If the workload is heavy, I can finish it at home. I don’t mind if the pay is reduced accordingly,” Su Nan said thoughtfully.

Chu Lian was held tightly by those strong arms, a large palm pressing the back of her head against the man’s chest, the solid hand cushioning the back of her skull.

Ji Yunye felt his cheeks burn hotter. He wanted to tell her that Mian’er was not as naive as she thought, but he felt it was pointless to say more and remained silent once again.

With a tearing sound, the already tattered clothes could no longer contain the fiery body of the Phoenix. Her two snow-white mounds burst free.

“Well, actually, as far as I know, there is another way to break the Heavenly Earth Harmony spell, but this method is somewhat…” Shi Quan hesitated to explain, as it felt like taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability. He had assumed Li Xiaoshang knew it already and that she would understand upon hearing it.

Moreover, I now understand that the difference between the experts of the Divine Realm and the supernatural beings of the mortal world is vast. Perhaps mortal supernatural beings must overcome a great barrier to reach what is called the ethereal Divine Realm.

Only then did Xi’er realize what she had done with her master. Embarrassment mixed with a sense of shame instantly reddened her eyes, tears welling up and spilling from the corners.

Hua Mian ignored everything, burying her head in her bowl until she felt Ji Yunye sit beside her. Only then did she look up at him, startled to see him persistently holding a handkerchief as he reached to touch her cheek.

Seeing the man’s impatient face, Tang Feng was first taken aback, then immediately wore a look of regret and turned to leave.

Though the Divine Dragon is also a dragon species, it tends to rely more on magic! Therefore, compared to the thick-skinned, tough giant dragons, their defenses are much weaker.

Su Zhenming held a glass of red wine, gazing out at the neon lights, smiling softly as he took a sip. “I don’t want any surprises. You must watch the person carefully! They must not escape, or else everything will be for nothing.”

Damn it, Ji Yuanhua, you scheming bitch, black-hearted scoundrel, how do you have the nerve to post that shameless nonsense on Weibo?

If one does not attend high school, there are vocational schools that teach specific skills, with medical technology schools being the most common.

Zhou Nan directed several medical robots to pack up Wei Shi’s treatment pod. While speaking with Mao Dongqing, he expressed doubts again about whether “Brother Wei will be able to participate in the next elimination round.”

“Is it really possible?” The boy glanced at Su Wushuang before his gaze settled on the basketball hoop.

The second-floor window was still open. Outside, a canopy hung a curtain, allowing the wind in but likely keeping the snow out. This was like enjoying the rain, and enjoying the snow here was equally delightful.

Although she knew he was Su Wushuang’s younger sister, she had never cared about what Su Wushuang’s family did or what kind of people they were.

Huai Zhen stuck his head out of the car window, and the last thing he saw was Xize standing by the roadside next to a Ford, staring towards the cable car line. Thompson was talking to him.

“This grandpa once attended a Japanese military and political crash course and is close to the Hayakawa family. He recommended I come here,” Yun Xia said with a wink.

Countless families have quarrelled over the college entrance exams, but in the end, one side would always compromise—after all, they are family.
