Volume 1, Chapter 52: The Pretty Female Student

"Have something to eat first." Xiao Fancheng smiled faintly and, as if by magic, produced a hamburger.

"Thank you." Su Wanwan pursed her lips and took the hamburger.

No matter what, to survive in the apocalypse, selling one's body didn’t seem like such a big deal.

Selling oneself to one person was far better than being treated as a plaything by a whole group.

Taking small bites of the hamburger, Su Wanwan’s mindset was gradually shifting.

One phone call had solved everything; he hadn’t expected it, and now he felt somewhat unreal.

At this moment, the square-jawed man firmly believed that Ye Qingcheng held the key. Yet even in his heart, he wasn’t entirely sure; Ye Qingcheng’s earlier demeanor hardly seemed feigned.

This ambush was nearly perfect. As long as Zhang Lin and most of the others from the Central Division unleashed their “Three Hands” technique, the Bullhead could choose to strike without needing to protect the Metal Master.

At least this would prove that some people, in order to preserve their fragile dignity, would resort to such despicable means.

Back then, the guy named Li Qi had even proactively added Wang Kai as a friend. Wang Kai didn’t recognize him as a professional player, probably because his team was not well known.

"My demand is simple. Since Teacher Hu brought me here to select players today, I believe I should have a definite outcome," Wang Kai finally exhaled and said.

However, the two girls, Qian Ning and Qian Yan, had yet to genuinely rejoice. Leng Hao was about to marry, but no sign of him had appeared yet—what was going on?

"I want the method to refine the purification beads," Ye Qingcheng was well aware that this time it was his turn to be squeezed for information. But who was truly exploiting whom? That was uncertain.

Captain Li and the others waited for news from the Sixth Battalion, but there was no response. To be safe, the Seventh Battalion was dispatched to circle behind the enemy, severing their connection with the Yisu Mao forces.

The brigade command knew that the frontline regimental commanders were exhausted and most wounded. They ordered them to rest with the troops, but except for Regimental Commanders Yang Qanmiao and Zhu Zhongliang of the 234th Regiment, along with that regiment’s deputy who had been severely injured and evacuated with the army, the other commanders couldn’t sleep. They came uninvited to hear Brigadier Ding discuss new deployments.

In a few days, it would be Liu’er’s wedding. Surely the household was busy now. After some thought, Su Banxia and He Zhan went to the inn, knowing that rushing over unannounced would only cause trouble for Liu’er’s family.

Over the years, the Empress had ignored affairs of the harem, yet the palace remained peaceful without her involvement—all thanks to Concubine Zhen’s management.

"Have you ever heard of the Venerable Cloud Immortal, or the Demon King’s power? Or even the Divine Flower Demon Art?" The head shopkeeper’s fierce eyes fixed on his junior sister sitting before him. He thought to himself that tonight, her complexion was truly rosy—surely she had absorbed quite a bit of the county magistrate’s vitality.

The Grand Princess felt the Crown Prince was deliberately finding fault with Doctor Su, trying to prevent him from entering to treat the Emperor. In her mind, Doctor Su’s medical skills were irreplaceable, so she insisted that he be allowed to see the Emperor.

In her previous life, as a close friend of Bo Shaohua, she had been unwittingly used by him for so long, even more intimate than Chu Fu in this life. How could she not know even a few of his residences?

Qiao Xi was utterly puzzled, her finger scrolling through messages on the screen, then her body stiffened instantly.

Moreover, she seemed increasingly casual around me—in speech and actions. I didn’t know if this was good or bad, only that some things appeared to be slipping gradually from my control, sliding toward an unknown path.

After changing a single word, the entire mood shifted. Even though Mu Qianchen’s face was now a thousand times more beautiful than before, she remained so delighted.

Nai Nai was just trying to prove how strong her spiritual power was by provoking her to attack. That was far too harsh on herself.
