Shan immediately took out his cellphone, rapidly tapped out a few lines, and then handed it back.
Watching the workers Chen Feiyang had brought preparing the kitchen, Gu Yuwei went over to take a look.
“Lord Sun, Lady Sun, my apologies for the wait—I was attending to the child just now,” Jiang Yushu smiled apologetically.
Lady Xiao and the three ladies from the Zhang and Qiu families, who had been focused solely on the emperor, only now noticed his arrival. Xiao Wanci hadn’t even left her couch and had nearly fainted at the news.

A tremendous roar echoed through the air. Sparks of red and blue erupted, falling from the sky over Yang City.
Perched atop a massive white spiral tortoise against the azure clouds, Yu Yiguan, clad in a purple Daoist robe, sat cross-legged on its back.

After further assimilation and transformation by the progenitor’s genes, Jack inevitably developed severe germophobia and the cold, subtle temperament characteristic of serpents.
What Shen Yue hadn’t expected was that in five years, he had come to the capital only once—and that time, due to urgency, he stayed in a hotel.
“Indeed, Jiang Wanxiu has probably lost this round,” Nan Yeshang said, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his lips.
