Chapter 125: Preparations Before Departure, Wild Goats

After Gu Tingzhou left, Dabao also got out of bed and finished his breakfast. Happily putting on his little wula shoes, he set off for school, leaving only Li Qingyun and Erbao at home.

Li Qingyun settled Erbao into his wooden high chair and gave him a steamed bun to tear apart and eat by himself. Very little of it actually made it into his mouth; it was mostly just play to pass the time, while also training his fine motor skills—killing several birds with one stone.

This freed her up to get some things done. Gu Tingzhou was leaving tomorrow, and she needed to prepare some food and daily necessities for him to take along.

Thinking back to when he had just returned, it felt like only yesterday, yet tomorrow he would have to leave again.

Heavens, Prince Siyao had always given off an arrogant and cold aura, keeping everyone at arm's length; no one had ever seen him smile before.

"Xiacheng?" Neither Luo Si nor Wu Tao expected Gong Yuqian to mention Xiacheng, and they couldn't help but exchange bewildered glances.

Lilith instinctively snuggled into the embrace of the man beside her, greedily inhaling his masculine scent, finding it incredibly sexy.

Back when her patent was to be licensed domestically, she had chosen the pharmaceutical factory under Milai Technology only after a very rigorous and detailed comparison.

"Alright," Shen Xingxiu said as he sat down in the dining room. Turning his head, he could see her busy figure working in the kitchen.

Hearing Zhang Geyi's detailed description, Liu Cuizhi's misgivings toward him dissipated.

This hunt was probably the shortest in history; before even half a day had passed, it had already come to a hasty conclusion.

These two elders were very talkative. Seeing that she seemed a bit unhappy, her aunt took the initiative to chat with her, asking if she had a boyfriend. She then mentioned that someone was currently introducing potential matches to her, but she was waiting anxiously. She had already been waiting for several months, and it was truly nerve-wracking.

Wei Hanqu had long heard of Shangguan Tingyu's great reputation. He knew quite a bit about her, especially how she had resolved the years of warfare between the Great Qin and the Tujue with just a few words, which had filled him with admiration. Later, however, when he heard of her seductive scandals, his good impression of her plummeted to freezing point.

Wang Tao threw a high side kick, which Chen Xiang blocked, followed by a low side kick, which was blocked again. Wang Tao already had a slight height advantage, and this succession of kicks forced Chen Xiang to retreat repeatedly. Just as Chen Xiang was about to launch an offensive, Wang Tao met him head-on. Relying on his youth and strength, he forced Chen Xiang into a defensive, passive position.

However, at this very moment, the high-grade beast hide lay right before Fen Liushi's eyes. Based on Shi Nuo's memories and his ancestors' descriptions of such hides, Fen Liushi deduced that it was on par with the ancient white tiger hide and the Heaven-Swallowing Python hide.

With a loud thud, she fell heavily to the ground. Her flashlight went flying into the roadside bushes, rolling down the slope of the hill, and her world was instantly plunged into darkness.

Seeing Chen Ping's wicked grin in the rearview mirror, combined with Qin Xuan's ill-timed question and Qin Feng's deadpan expression, Gu Xue recalled what had just happened upstairs. A wave of vexation washed over her. Unable to contain her anger, she reached out to Qin Feng's waist, pinched a fold of his skin, and gave it a hard twist.

Instead, everyone assumed that "Kelly" was the one competing in all the races. "Kelly" became the "God of War" in the eyes of the entire Federation, while his own exposure remained low. The outside world only knew that the captain of the Guitu Racing Team was named Zhao Qingxiao, but they knew absolutely nothing about his appearance or gender.

"We can only provide additional psychological counseling for the Xiongbing Company to mitigate the effects of the dreams," Lianfeng replied.

However, due to various reasons later on, Long Chenyuan and Lu Jinyu did not marry first; instead, Chen Xing and Meihua were the ones who wed first.

This was what remained from the brewing process. The batch of black licorice rice previously shipped back to Xihuan City had already been brewed into wine. Since minors and medical staff could not drink alcohol, steeping the roasted rice in water was the most suitable alternative.

"Unless there is an external injection of energy, it can only rely on slowly absorbing stellar energy," the electronic voice replied.

After Matsui Ishihara finished speaking, his eyes flashed with determination. Looking at Matsui Ishihara's resolute gaze, Matsui Yoko showed no fear. Instead, her own eyes shone with an even greater resolve as she looked at him and said:
