Volume One, Chapter 104: Who decided that a folk singer must be able to play the piano? Truly remarkable judgment of people!

Lu Yaoyao nodded upon hearing this.

"Mr. Xu, I truly can't thank you enough!"

"You still thought of me!"

Lu Yaoyao was well aware of the significance of this banquet. For her, it was a rare and invaluable opportunity.

"You flatter me! In fact, I look forward to the day you become the next star of Zhongtian. With your talent and potential, I have every confidence in your future," Xu Zhou said with a warm smile.

Even an original master praised her so highly—Lu Yaoyao could hardly contain her joy.

As night fell...

Su Le slowly opened his eyes, his head heavy and clouded. Staying up late last night to narrate the Tomb Robber’s Chronicles had left him groggy, and no matter how long he slept, the aftereffects lingered...

But Mu Shaoyou only scoffed at this. So what if you know how to make black silk? What can you really do to stop me?

"Thirty seconds left, Commander Lu. Are you really hesitating over such an obvious choice?" came Jiang Shicheng’s voice from behind the tree.

He stood above heaven and earth, a true royal weapon in his hand, long hair billowing in the fierce wind surrounding him! On his face and arms—every part laid bare by his clothing—countless intricate blood-red patterns emerged, as if he trod upon the shattered heavens.

Compared to the previous days, their spirit and vitality had improved dramatically—one could see it clearly in their eyes.

That smile on her face was as fresh as a lotus just risen from the water, mesmerizing every man present. She exuded a captivating fragrance that filled the entire Wanghua Pavilion.

The last soul ring—ten thousand years of pure red—if one didn’t know they’d undergone the God’s trial, they might have thought they’d truly slain a soul beast.

To be honest, He Shen’s first impression of this person could only be described as "profound"—no other word was more fitting.

Li Fugui naturally understood: if others learned that there were Firebirds in Area Five, even if there was only a chance of encountering them, no one would want to go there.

There was nothing to complain about; being able to recuperate in this world for six entire months had already far exceeded his expectations.

Captain Zhao wanted to plead, but the police ignored his protests and took the suspect away. However, two were left behind to investigate the scene, led by Wang Jian’an.

Lingxi’s vision blurred and her heart skipped a beat. Instinctively, she seized Consort Ren’s wrists, granting herself a fleeting moment to breathe.

The Silver Dragon Axis was the most precious, and also the hardest to obtain, among the seven rewards on the table.

He Ye, struck until she stopped crying, her face swollen, finally found her focus through her tears and began to cry again—this time, her sobs sounded normal, no longer as if bewitched.

"Thank you, my lord!" Sima Yi’s face flushed with excitement. The lord's words had seemed critical at first, but this was praise, pure and simple.

Liu Shilin felt extremely reluctant, but what could he do? With Liu Shixun watching him so sternly, he dared not utter a word of refusal.

Consort Yu’s cup also held Jade Guanyin tea. She took a sip, quietly ignoring Consort Ying’s comment.

Seeing this, Li Dongliu immediately thought to take the Breaking Mirror Pill, but upon hearing Lv Tianming's words, he hesitated, pausing his actions.

Thus, even if Noble Consort Pei hadn’t gotten into trouble, she probably would have already lost Emperor Chengzhen’s favor.

Ye Kui whispered a few words to Qin Sang, only to be glared at for her insubordination by the girl who could fall asleep during an opera.

"Second Sister’s chess skills aren’t bad either." Ye Zhao’s eyes and brows brimmed with pride.

Watching the golden lightning drawing ever closer, Yang Chen narrowed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, then in a flash, his figure shot upwards toward the thunder overhead like a bolt of lightning himself.

Yang Ye hesitated for a moment, watched Annie’s departing back, clenched his teeth, and followed her.

For this reason, Han Ziyu was deeply grateful to his sister-in-law, his wife’s own elder sister, and held her in special esteem.

Xiang Xue knew Wang Hanyu and Wei Xiaoli were returning to Jiangnan and couldn’t help but think of Rong City and her friends there. Though modern technology allowed her to video chat with friends thousands of miles away as if they were still by her side, after hanging up, it never felt quite the same.

Nian Mu kept her distance cautiously. Even though Abeipu knew everything, she was still resisting, unwilling to let him completely hold her secret over her.

Just as Wu Jing finished speaking, Ling Yuyao stepped forward, ready to rush toward Yang Chen.

The members at the experimental base were dumbfounded. They had never seen anyone speak to their director like that. One by one, they glanced at Yin Huihui, then at Zhang Qian across the room.

As soon as the liquid touched her lips, Lin Ruoxue’s brows knitted tightly. She covered her mouth and hurried to the bathroom.

Situ Lan could no longer bear it. With a loud smack, she threw her phone from the second floor straight to the first. The housekeeper, just returning, witnessed the scene and was so frightened she didn’t dare make a sound.

Just as I thought... Yang Ye nodded solemnly, then looked at Lu Han, who had just pounded his chest, and glanced back anxiously.

The first match turned out just as Feng Chenghui had expected—both sides played cautiously at the start, each developing steadily.

I sneered to myself, thinking, the more pain on both sides, the better. Isn’t he trying to torment me? Let’s see which of us can outlast the other.

After nearly a month, she was discharged from the hospital, looking healthy and energetic, and I, who had been on bed rest to protect the pregnancy, also safely passed the critical period. Three months later, the baby was almost stable.

More and more nurses brought in blood bags, and the machines beeped continuously. If the soft beeps turned into a long, unbroken tone, it meant the operation had failed—and Luo Ange would never wake again.

From the moment Nie Sihe entered, Fang Yu had remained quietly to the side, saying nothing. She knew this second-generation heir with a dazzling background; she’d seen him many times in the general manager’s office and heard from other department managers that he was the general manager’s own younger brother, and the son of the chairman of the Angust Headquarters in France.
