Chapter 76: Infighting (Seeking First Subscription!)
"Surrender our weapons?"
Dionysus was somewhat surprised when he heard this news, especially since it was delivered by no one other than his most trusted subordinate.
"Yes, it's an order from the Normans."
The Greek's face was half-lit, half-shadowed in the candlelight, making his features difficult to discern. His hand pressed on the back of Dionysus's, leaving Dionysus momentarily speechless.
The Normans wanted to confiscate their weapons.
"Isn't this our ninth sister-in-law?" Suddenly, a deep and slightly surprised voice sounded outside the private booth.
I shook my head. "I'm not thinking about anything. It's just that the investigation seems a bit too..." Smooth. Now that Brother Pu can no longer see through my thoughts, he sometimes doesn't even bother to guess and simply asks me directly.
As Feng Yinjun finished speaking, the silhouette of Gusu Liuyun at the door suddenly trembled violently.
Zhao Yunfeng held out for quite a while, refusing to sign the papers. After his condition improved a little, he visited the Ye family several times, but each time was met with closed doors. He waited outside their home, waited at the kindergarten, but never managed to see Ye Yu or Yangyang.
He had always believed he was capable of bringing her happiness, protecting her in the way he saw fit.
"Qiyan, let Yao Xi and me talk to her. If she agrees, I'll help you steal Liu Ding's iris. You know perfectly well, as long as Yao Xi is alive, Liu Ding won't stop. And you, you'll be in danger too."
With things in such a mess, Yan Ruyu became anxious as well. She hoped Liang Yu would come to his senses and that his overbearing temper would change.
"We're very glad you could come, Mr. Jin, and you, Mr. Liu. Thank you for your cooperation. Lele still isn't speaking yet, but don't worry—she just needs time to heal from her trauma. But she's already much better today."
Suddenly, something struck his heart, leaving a faint ache. Feng Yinjun frowned slightly; he knew all too well what this feeling meant.
Li Yan would never believe it. He tightened his grip, and in an instant, the body fell, severed, to the ground, a gush of blood streaming out and staining the earth.
He would never naively believe that Zhu Cong had gifted him these exquisite twins out of any brotherly affection; that would be absurd.
But if one considered traveling around the world, it wasn’t simply a matter of eating, drinking, and daily needs. After all, our means of transportation were limited to an RV, a car, and a slow-flying wooden kite.
Xu Zheng walked along the shore while Chen Xi paddled on the lake. After a long silence, Chen Xi put away the oar and spoke with a smile.
"Just because of the outcome of a match?" Shi Rujin no longer hurried to leave, folding her arms in front of her chest as she asked.
The shadow was truly too mysterious; from beginning to end, Xue Shisan had never seen through its true nature—it remained shrouded in perpetual night.
In fact, after listening for a while, Shi Rujin already understood Xu Wan's intentions. Coming to Qiu Yuting's place in the middle of the night was nothing more than an expression of what she believed to be unwavering love, yet she seemed oblivious to a crucial fact... Qiu Yuting was so drunk, how could he have the energy or mind to talk about romance?
Their family had once been on the verge of rising up, with a chance to become one of those second-tier, even first-tier, great powers.
When Zhang Chu saw the faces of the saber-wielding warriors outside—each missing a hand, their wounds hastily wrapped with sweat cloths meant for sandstorms—and the growing fanaticism in their eyes, something suddenly clicked in his mind.
At what point did Fengyun realize he had to grow up, that he had to shoulder a man's responsibilities?
As his words fell, so did his body—his plump figure hit the earth with such force that the ground itself seemed to tremble.
Qiu Lin reached up to wipe rain from his face, then collapsed amidst the ruins, letting the downpour lash him, utterly defeated.
"Silly Sister, what's wrong?" Chen Che asked with both exasperation and concern, starting to question her seriously, afraid something might truly be wrong.
