Chapter 50: Gender Identity Disorder

"Please rest assured, Sixth Madam. In just half a year, our Shi family will undoubtedly secure a prominent place for the General Mansion's cosmetics throughout Jiangnan," Shi Jinyuan assured.

"I trust Young Master Shi." Yun Zhaozhao wore a professional smile. "Should this collaboration go well, there may be even more opportunities for us to work together in the future."

Painting a grand picture with empty promises—she was quite adept at that too. Of course, her overall impression of Shi Jinyuan was still rather favorable. If they truly cooperated...

After conspiring with thirty-eight tribal chieftains, Mu Meng opened the gates without authorization to let Huang Zheng in. In this wild and desolate world, this was a capital offense of betraying the entire world, one that would incur the destruction of his entire clan.

Actually, that Fish Gill possessed no great ability. Despite being a netherworld commander and seemingly holding a high and formidable position...

"But you took my brother away later!" Leng Yan said. This was her greatest anguish. In the past, with her brother Leng Yidi looking after her, her days were not so difficult; ever since Leng Yidi left, she had become the target of everyone's bullying.

Naturally, the advantage of this item was that possessing a massive quantity of Qi Gathering Pills could potentially even nurture a formidable army of cultivators. Thus, while the Qi Gathering Pill sounded like a most basic medicinal pill, it was not something easily obtained.

The man in the red robe possessed extremely rich combat experience as well, remaining entirely unconcerned in the face of such a formidable attack.

Seeing Liu Bang's displeasure, the ministers guessed that the answers given just now regarding the performances of the Crown Prince and the Prince of Dai had not gone the way Liu Bang desired, which was why he was making such an issue of it. Lowering their heads and exchanging glances, the ministers stopped using their chopsticks, and the hall fell completely silent.

She had not expected Su Wan to say nothing at all. After all, tonight was the New Year's Eve banquet, an occasion that traditionally required staying up to welcome the new year. Yet when asked to return now, she readily agreed?

Even with Bai Qiye's assistance, if Su Wan were truly so incompetent, how could those scoundrels in the Lei Family Army ever submit to her command?

Human nature being what it was, one always wished to appear poised and reticent. Only after declining repeatedly and then putting on an expression of helpless acceptance could one signal that they were not greedy for worldly wealth, but rather yielding to interpersonal obligations and forced to accept.

Because of Zhao Youqi's remark, the conflict in the main hall had clearly escalated to a scandalous family affair within the Ye household.

The crowd of media reporters instantly realized that the upcoming story would be the most gripping part. Therefore, each of them held their breath in profound concentration, listening with the utmost focus and earnestness.

"There's a breeze?! Could there be another connecting passage?" the man in black muttered to himself, staring down at the descending stone staircase.

On the other side, Feng Xing had also dispatched all his men to gather news of Luo Anning, yet Xia Yihan at home no longer paid him any mind.

When Mo Haotian and Ye Yurong appeared together at the venue and saw Zhao Guodong bowing and scraping before Fu Qishaow and Su Yujing, they more or less guessed the truth.

This park charged no admission fee and appeared to have been established long ago. Its entrance was an arched gate with moss growing along its base.

He stared at everything before him without moving a muscle, radiating an aura as cold and sharp as an enraged, frantic wolf.

She had her own persistence, and naturally, she also held onto a pride she was unwilling to easily let go of.

Fu Shaoquan's lips curved into a bitter smile without a word. Outside the window, flashes of lightning continually rent the sky asunder.

Sorrow flowed through his heart, yet Fu Shaoquan felt entirely helpless. Given the current state of Luo Anning, what was he supposed to do?

Pushing open the bedroom door, Sviwer saw the utter disorder across the floor and the stain of virgin blood upon the pristine bedsheets. He knew Xueyi was bathing because the sound of water from the bathroom was very loud.

"I suppose I can tell you all, but let's get the unpleasant truths out of the way first: this matter ends right here and must never be leaked outside. The relevant authorities will also be summoning you for a talk in due time."

He found himself trapped in the abyss of poverty, feeling deeply aggrieved because Fan Tong had cuckolded him. All the fault lay with Fan Tong; initially, he had never intended to harm him, but he never expected that after the Spring Festival last year, Fan Tong would proactively invite him to go out to work, planning through this very opportunity to openly bring Guo Honghong back home as his wife.
