Chapter 124: Fish Bladder

Lu Chenyuan did not refute Miao Jinyue and took the lead to scout the path ahead. Though he was naturally vigilant, after walking for only a short while, his gaze was drawn involuntarily to the clusters of flickering orange flames on the stone walls on either side.

He discovered that with every step he took forward, two new flames would ignite quietly on the walls in the darkness ahead, while the two clusters behind him would vanish, their light extinguished as if pinched out by a finger, returning to silence and shadow.

"Well, that's understandable in the heat of competition," Ning You said, a trace of embarrassment in his voice. He then looked down to soothe Wei Huiling, adding, "Huiling was just overly nervous; I have everything under control." As he spoke, he cast a look of slight triumph toward Wei Yuheng.

"What exactly did they say?" Su Qiqi watched Liu Tong stammer and felt certain that something had happened.

Lin Shuran composed herself, casting off her previous mood, and approached Lu Yao with a gentle, graceful smile.

With that, she turned and left the Yongji Group building; that security guard always struck her as rather eccentric.

Qiao Yunran listened to Ling Huaduo, and as she observed the expression on Ling Huaduo’s face, a sense of gleeful schadenfreude welled up inside her—one she made no effort to hide from Ling Huaduo.

"How did you know?" Ling Anxun asked curiously. She had noticed the VIP room from downstairs, but apart from the waitstaff, she had never seen any so-called VIPs coming or going, leading her to assume it was just a temporary storage room for the staff.

For Xiao Ziyang, however, this was not the case. As long as there was no real kissing or explicit nudity, he believed that as an actor, one should be willing to shoot any kind of scene. Otherwise, one should not be in this line of work.

"I... what is wrong with me? Please don't scare me, why are you looking at me like that?" An Zhi asked, her voice trembling with tears. The reaction of the two men had unsettled her once again. She was terrified that something else had gone wrong with her body.

However, to Ma Hongjun's disappointment, even though Zhang Yang had sung opera until seven in the morning, he remained as energetic as ever. There was no sign of the scene they had imagined, where he would have to lean against the wall or hold his waist while walking into the restaurant.

The other party demanded that once An Zhi was discharged from the hospital, she must transfer to a school in Nanyang City and live under a false identity for the rest of her life.

"Heh, those two guys must have left that waiter feeling completely bewildered, right?" Gao Yi pondered for a moment before resting his head in his hands and gazing at the scenery outside.

Peilan was so thrifty that even if she had been pestered by Zizhu into buying something, it shouldn't have been anything this exquisite. Items crafted with such fine detail could only be afforded by someone wealthy and extravagant. Before Zizhu could even say a word, she had already guessed that the kind "Brother Yan" had visited today.

"Gao Yi." Xue'er’s face lit up with a smile when she saw him, though in Gao Yi's eyes, it looked somewhat forced.

Yesterday, I asked the editor for a link for next week, but the editor told me: "You didn't even make it into the top fifteen of the popularity rankings this week, and you have the nerve to ask me for a link?"

This room was the finest in the entire hotel; even the bathroom was made of transparent glass. This only served to satisfy the desires of Shao Jian and his companions.

I decisively activated Windwalk; otherwise, I wouldn't even know how I died—it was simply too ferocious.

Skill: Meat Hook. Throw a bloody meat hook at a target location. The hook will drag the first unit it touches back to the Butcher. If it is an enemy unit, it deals 360 holy damage. Range: 100 meters.

Although Banxia was exhausted, he was still a child. At the sight of the meat buns on the table, he reached out to grab one, but Peilan insisted he wash his hands first before he finally relented.

"Boss, are you even human?" Mo Anqi, taking advantage of the current daze, finally blurted out the words he had been holding back all day.

"Angels?!" The appearance of the four individuals drew exclamations and heated whispers from the rogue cultivators below.
