Chapter 87: You Mean So Much More Than He Does
Xu Ze sat on the sofa, surveying his surroundings. He had to admit, this was indeed the chief director’s office—the space was spacious and tastefully decorated. Moreover, there was a distinct scent, that unique fragrance found only in a woman’s room. Xu Ze leaned back. “Ah, this sofa is so soft, it feels as if every hollow in my back is perfectly supported.” The comfortable sofa made him feel unexpectedly drowsy, so he set his teacup down on the small table beside him.
By the time we arrived, Yuka and Mari were happily playing with Teruo. Su Luo’s gentle and sincere voice, warm yet tinged with subtle sorrow, sang softly, weaving joy, melancholy, and youthful innocence together. It was as if the song were coming from a distant place, yet at the same time, as if he were always singing quietly by your ear—dreamlike, yet clear.
The person from earlier was likely one of Sylvie’s subordinates, stationed here to monitor the Ancestor's movements. Tina and Kane had come to scout the situation, not intending to alert anyone, but sensing something unusual beneath the rubble, they startled him into fleeing. On one hand, it was also meant to boost everyone’s morale, making all feel closely tied to the company’s development and share in the joys of its growth.
When Lin Feng arrived at Birdman Arts Recording Studio, apart from Liu Kailai and Daolang, Zhou Yaping was also present. Knowing Gong Yu was in low spirits, Amy tugged her along to Chinatown after lunch to buy New Year decorations. Uncle began to recount stories enthusiastically, continuing until the panel of experts on stage picked up their magnifying glass and flashlight for a closer inspection.
In later years, White Horse Temple became a significant tourist attraction—he had once visited it himself. Who would have thought it would be demolished today? “Before his assets are frozen, split off the shares he controls in the Blue Universe Group and transfer them to my name,” Ling Tian instructed Hong Zhen.
“Damn!” Several massive black feet stomped toward him. Qin Tianqi let out a cold snort, leaping into the air with a backflip to evade the attack. As she pondered, Xun Qing suddenly noticed several suspicious figures. Her gaze turned cold, and she strode over.
“Brother-in-law, you’ll have to tell me how you survived, or else I won’t tell you where my sister is,” Jiang Bojin said, rubbing his knee—thankfully uninjured. If he were hurt, filming would require a stunt double. Yun Ci changed clothes, adjusted her collar and belt, and stole a glance at him.
At this moment, the Ancient One was battling Ebony Maw and Black Dwarf. Yet she was no longer a mere sorcerer—now also a formidable Reaper. While engaging Ebony Maw at range, she wielded her Zanpakuto single-handedly to suppress Black Dwarf.
After that, if he had no work in the factory, he wouldn’t have money to eat in the canteen. Wouldn’t he have to return home for meals? The equipment Tony invented might not have been the most advanced, but it was certainly among the top tier—naturally, Kara didn’t want to give it up. Qin Qingnan let out a low sigh, not daring to speak; at that moment, he wanted nothing more than to call Xie Shichen to discuss matters.
Yang Sisi was both amused and exasperated by Zhang Nianwei’s shamelessness; she certainly wouldn’t argue with them and simply turned to leave. He was already furious at his men for arresting the wrong person, and now, with more trouble coming his way, his temper flared anew.
Finally, on the fourth day, she received news from Li Biechuan and the others that they had returned safely, and only then was she at ease. Wu Zhengliang also called to notify Commander Mao, since he would need assistance to handle the situation here. There were only three possible outcomes: if the enemy retreated, they would advance; if the enemy advanced, they would retreat; or a stalemate. Now, with control far beyond their imagination and the means to change their future, he naturally had more choices. If An Qing failed, he could always choose someone else.
