Chapter 75: Their Demands Are Simply Too Much

“Is it him again?”

Leo had just woken up early, finished washing up, and hadn’t even had breakfast yet when he saw Amelan, bound by the soldiers, along with his companion, Eber.

This time, the fellow seemed a little better.

“I’m very glad to see you.” As soon as Amelan spoke, Leo silently withdrew his previous thought.

He seemed to be missing a front tooth.

“Sir, he came to launch a sneak attack last night…”

After everything was dealt with, Ran Wei was preparing to go out with Su Zijin, and since Abai had nothing to do, he joined the couple as they left.

“It’s fine, it’s not anything serious. No need to trouble him.” Besides, whether he’s willing is another question. Thinking of Kaor’s usual attitude, Long Yuze doubted he’d be happy to help.

Zhong Shan looked at them helplessly yet amused; just relying on these people to spontaneously organize resistance and rescue was nothing but a joke. Even if they managed to form a group, it would only be exploited by ambitious schemers.

The second young master Song curled his lips into a slight smile at Su Sihan, then cordially invited Madam Liu and Father Su to take their seats first. Afterward, he chatted warmly with the Su brothers before sitting down himself.

Forget it. If she really did that, not only would Duchess De and the Fourteenth Prince refuse to accept her, even a few casual accusations of jealousy or lack of virtue would be enough to ruin her.

The distance was shrinking fast; Chang Lin had no choice but to fire his gun. The pursuers behind heard the shot and lay low, listening for movement in the woods. Ah Juan returned straight to Chang Lin’s hiding place, instantly exposing his location.

Could it be she picked up a stowaway? Mi You frowned suspiciously as she looked at the person. But now that she’d rescued them, she couldn’t just throw them out again.

Forced landing. The Lao people watched as the plane touched down, and at that instant, earth-penetrating missiles rained from the sky. They could only scatter and flee, abandoning everything at the airport. As deafening explosions erupted, two drones began dropping tons of incendiary bombs.

Why is it that, even knowing I was lying a moment ago, I really started to cry? Why, when I keep telling myself not to shed tears, do they flow endlessly? Is it truly because I’ve become so immersed, trapped in my own fabricated story?

Sometimes I wonder, is a life like this meaningful? A person without a past—her existence feels so unreal.

“No need to trouble yourselves. I arrived in a rush, didn’t notify anyone in advance, and staying overnight is already an imposition. I’ll be fine sharing a room with Wanyan.” Shen Shuci finished speaking and, sitting beside Jiang Jinshang, lifted her brow in a playful gesture.

The warriors who had just escaped the inferno and dodged the iron spears found themselves blocked by a wooden door. No matter how hard they struck with heavy hammers and axes, it wouldn’t budge. It turned out that Schwab was bracing the door from behind with a thick wooden pole.

“Why can’t I sleep well… don’t you know? Do you want to try again—never mind.” Unable to voice the truth, Nana Min felt both angry and flustered. She pulled Mirai into her arms, and in the next moment, fell back onto the bed.

Especially when his strength reached its limit and he was forced to leave the base, Aina’s feelings were genuine. And when he broke through his restraints and returned safely, her joy came from the heart.

“Of course it’s true. If you don’t believe me, come with me to the next place and see for yourself,” said the Peak Locust Emperor.

“Consul, I insist that Faqiding be appointed Minister of Industry. He’s far more suitable for the position than Akalande,” Belisarius reiterated his opinion.

Looking at the enemy army filling the carriage road in front of Towerburg, Art’s heart surged with uncontrollable excitement.

“What should we do? Should we rush back and warn the teams behind us?” Angus was also losing his composure.

One of the groomsmen may have underestimated the bridesmaid’s weight. When he lifted her, he staggered and nearly dropped her, causing the onlookers to burst out laughing.
