Chapter 82: Acquaintance
Lin Yu’s worries were not unfounded.
He knew well Li Xiaobao’s temperament and way of handling things; once thwarted, Li Xiaobao would surely seek revenge with all his strength. Since the incident had taken place inside P Watch Shop, Li Xiaobao was likely to redirect his fury at the shop itself, seeking vengeance against P Watches.
What was even more troubling was that Xu Liwen had sided with Lin Yu throughout the affair, blocking Li Xiaobao’s actions, which might provoke Li Xiaobao to target Xu Liwen as well...
If not for her mother’s illness weighing on her mind, Chen Manfei would probably have taken the chance to tease Wang Haoming. Thinking of the lustful look in Wang Haoming’s eyes when he had stared at her chest just moments ago, she was overcome by both anger and embarrassment.
“It’s nothing. What could possibly happen? I just wanted to look at you a little more,” Ming Ke had intended to use Zhang Zhonghe to probe Zhao Zixian, but after a moment’s thought, she abandoned the idea.
“So what?” Mu Qingqing gritted her teeth, feeling uncomfortable at being lectured by a ten-year-old child.
The news had once reported that many tourists, upon landing at Lhasa Airport, collapsed from not acclimatizing to the plateau climate, and immediately boarded the next flight to leave.
Director Liu’s purpose in coming to Tianwei Group was to catch a glimpse of He Ziming. She had been here for nearly half a year, but had not even seen He Ziming’s silhouette, let alone the man himself.
In the past, Hezhe’s scandals had been almost unceasing; each time, she merely endured the gossip, and the pain passed as well. After all, it was only one-sided wishful thinking on her part.
They did not need to deliberately cultivate; as long as they swallowed rare treasures or magical elixirs, all they had to do was find a safe spot and fall into a deep sleep. Like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, they would awaken to a new transformation.
The three of them sat down, and as the waiter served tea and brought menus, Pang Rong and his companions arrived.
If Lu Junqing’s judgment was correct, these people really might be on a secret mission, and they most likely did not belong to the regular East German army, but to the Stasi.
He had never expected that his curiosity would lead him to sneak into this mysterious country, only to be discovered by two girls with astonishing abilities, and worse still, to encounter a legendary “old monster.”
Shang Yunbai felt uncomfortable being watched; her eyes flickered, and she raised her finger. The black snake tilted its head and gently rubbed against her finger, affectionately winding up to her wrist, then raised its head to stare directly at the man before her.
He was, after all, a young man full of vigor; though not a virgin, he hadn’t had such contact in a long time.
The habit of saving money among the Chinese people was not something that had existed since ancient times, nor was storing grain as easy as one might wish.
“Mr. Lu, could you please stop pestering Chi Qingyu in the future?” Wan Qi Qianyi spoke up, abruptly cutting off Lu Chengye.
Seeing Guo Jian’s uncompromising attitude, he could only sigh, pull out the handcuffs from his pocket, and step forward with resignation, speaking in a low voice.
At the entrance, the doll furrowed its beautiful brows, showing a look of resistance. Its strength was not great but resolute, attempting to escape the young girl’s grasp and return to the exhibition hall.
Precisely because he lacked the ability, all he could do was shout a couple of times, venting his feelings with words.
However, she had no spare rooms. Perhaps she could squeeze in with her aunt later, and let Wan Qi Qianyi sleep in her own room?
The Sun family’s Sun Tianmei, the Yan family’s Yan Jing, the Dong family’s Dong Yanhua, the Li family’s Li Boutong, the Yao family’s Yao Liman, the Yu family’s Yu Rouhui, the Zhou family’s Zhou Jiaying, the Xue family’s Xue Aoyue, the Meng family’s Meng Jinzhu, and the He family’s He Yunyun.
Once everything was settled, the two took their leave. Zhao Shu walked back alone to her room, hoping to catch up on the nap interrupted by Guo Huai that morning. As soon as she entered, she saw Tianyi sitting in the room, his face filled with anger. Zhao Shu sensed trouble; it must be that Tianyi had learned about Zhao Yun’s affair and was upset that Zhao Shu had not avenged him.
