Chapter 24: A Man's Promises Are Deceitful Snares

Lou Yizhou punished Song Yin for her distraction with a more ferocious kiss, which also pushed her to get into the mood all the faster. Song Yin’s body was pressed against the smooth surface of the mirror, with Lou Yizhou’s burning frame behind her. Trapped and unable to move, her sense of shame reached its peak until she finally couldn't help but plead with him to go to the bed, begging him not to do it here.

The second time, Lou Yizhou’s aftercare was quite decent. He carried her to the bathroom to wash up, then carried her back.

Lou Yizhou dealt with...

"Stop with all the nonsense and shut up." The other person could only close their mouth helplessly as the two hid in the bushes, seemingly observing something.

"Heh, it’s so late; Lu Zihao won’t come out. How could I possibly invite him? He!" Hong Qiang made a helpless expression and said.

Her body swayed slightly, nearly collapsing to the ground. She regretted a thousand times over in her heart that she should have left Nannan at home instead of bringing her along to be a pawn in someone else's scheme.

Guo Chen was fighting for his life, while they were somewhat held back by fear of collateral damage; otherwise, how could they have been broken through by Guo Chen?

But it was different now. The fact that the tree tubers were edible had become a secret shared by the whole village. Although they were happy to share this secret, they were also selfishly unwilling to let more people know about it.

This thought spiraled out of control. Although Qian Yadong knew that Guo Chen’s feat was likely just a flash in the pan—that his breaking through the barrier with his bare hands was merely a fluke, an unintentional act that nonetheless brought about unexpected success.

He had also thought that there might not be a house upon arrival, but they had tents, so living in them for a while certainly wouldn't be a problem.

Xu Wen’s face turned cold as he looked indifferently at the shop entrance, where a young cultivator with a look of astonishment on his face held a mid-grade flying sword that was still spitting out mysterious sword light.

"Let’s play together. Aren't you two looking to play on your phones? Why don’t we just play in the room together!" Jin Faguang chuckled, pinning Qiao Meimei beneath him once again.

"Captain Mei, it really is you. Captain Mei, I will never dare to do it again!" Black Panther said to Mei Yu with a mournful face.

Qiao Bo giggled, showing no consciousness of being a guest, and sat directly across from Xi Chen. He reached out with a pair of fair, slender hands and grabbed Xi Chen’s hand, shaking it enthusiastically. Xi Chen sighed helplessly, exhaled to himself, and set down the coffee cup in his hand, offering a response to the other man’s passion just to be polite.

Think about it: if he were truly filial, he would be taking good care of his aunt at a time like this instead of chasing after his eldest brother. Even if his brother were a scoundrel, what could it possibly matter?

Sun Wufan naturally didn't return home empty-handed after coming to the Ning residence; he shamelessly sponged a dinner and even made off with a roast chicken before patting his backside and leaving in satisfaction, which made Shilang roll his eyes in fury.

She chose to use her entire life to fulfill Lu Shu’s, dragging him out of the abyss step by step through her companionship. She had made Lu Shu her entire world.

Yet, strangely, the moment he raised his hand and before he even touched the gate, the tightly closed doors suddenly opened on their own, as if welcoming a guest, revealing the way into the courtyard.

"Zheng Chenheng, I told you, I only want you! If you leave, you need not return! I don't need anyone else!" Zheng Xichen smiled bitterly, sweat beads sliding down his forehead to mix with the liquid welling in the corners of his eyes, slowly trickling down to soak the bedding.

Old classmates eventually became a status of the past as time slipped away; now, each had new identities and new responsibilities.

Under the expectant gazes of countless eyes, the light clouds finally underwent a change, transforming into a rain of imperial nectar.

The scene stopped abruptly at this point. At a wine table, the Sect Master of Heaven's Will had already clenched his fists, glaring in fury at Xuanxin Zaohua, but the Blood Demon and the Flower Butterfly beside him held his fists down.

Ye Huang was satisfied with the two sets of satin garments—one set in water blue with pearl white, the other in goose yellow with emerald green. She expressed her thanks, took out the water blue and pearl white set, and began to put on the jacket and skirt.
