Chapter 137: Encountering the Mysterious Man Again
If life were only ever a first meeting, there would be far fewer things to remember with longing.
When Fan Xiaoyou and Feng Youru parked the car and entered the Aegean Western Restaurant, the table where Fan Xiaoyou and Tim had once loved to sit was occupied by the very man Feng Youru had collided with earlier, ...
Because the wedding had been postponed for a year, Qing Bao had prepared a much more generous trousseau. She had made dozens of outfits for herself, and even made quite a few for Fang Qingyue.
“Brother, I’m afraid we’ll have to stay here in the jungle for two or three days. Once we find out what’s really going on, we can decide what to do!” Qi Longsong summoned his courage and offered his suggestion.
Qing Bao had once seen a report on the news saying that rural areas produced more straw than they could use. During the wheat harvest, many families would simply set fire to it in the fields, and the burning straw would affect the air quality and so on.
Wei Changfeng looked up at the sky. It was nearly noon, yet the sun appeared dim and yellow, while windblown dust swept across the heavens in waves.
“Hahaha... Qingtian, whether you’re a god or a ghost, I’m going to devour you today.” As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, then let a long string of saliva trail from her mouth.
Whenever his heart drew near that nest, unease rose within him. He was afraid! Afraid that by the time he reached the nest, he would discover that he had arrived too late! Even more afraid that Rolan had originally been safe and sound, and that his attempt to rescue her would instead bring about her death.
Qingyue and the others did not return to the magistrate’s office. They went straight to the medical clinic instead. Everyone needed something to do, and he did not want to sit idle, so he began learning medicine from Doctor Li at the clinic. Although he knew he could never possess Tang Jian’s talent, he still wanted to learn more about the healing arts.
Where could Mother have gone? Where could she possibly go? She was unfamiliar with this place and knew no one here. What would happen if something went wrong?
Judging from the behavior of the birds when they arrived, that mother bird was clearly of noble blood. Having absorbed its essence, his own bloodline had become just as noble as hers.
“Ghost-Tongue Bell used too much force and reopened his wound.” Hundred-Grass Earth Dragon struggled to lift Ghost-Tongue Bell and staunched the bleeding once more.
He still remembered that three years ago, it had also been here in Binjiang that such a sensational incident had occurred. Now, unexpectedly, what was happening was even more astonishing than it had been back then.
After hearing him, Hu Changle gave a slight nod and immediately turned his body away, deliberately making it clear that he had no intention of paying Chen Yong any attention.

Six burning fireballs surged forward together with Gao Fei’s body, waiting only for him to fire them. Yet Gao Fei delayed, refusing to launch them. He was waiting for the right opportunity.
That was also why the higher one climbed, the harder one fell. Once one lost control of one’s state of mind upon this stage, the descent would become endless. Besides, this stage offered no leisurely stretch of time in which to slowly find oneself again. The spectators came to watch the contests every day—they certainly were not here to wait for you.
“Master, you cannot leave Peach Blossom Convent!” Mi Tu entered from outside with No Omission Strategy in her hand.
“It’s over... We really did wake it up. We’re all finished now. It’s all because of you... All because you disturbed it. You deserve to die...” Liu Xuan’s face turned ashen as he gradually descended into madness. He even pointed at Lin Tiancheng and began cursing him recklessly, heedless of the consequences.
