Chapter 149: Finding Fuchuan

"Wenxuan, have you had breakfast? There is a new egg tart shop across the street, and their tarts are really delicious," Lin Hui said, looking at Fang Wenxuan with a flattering expression.
"No... It's not like I can't afford a single egg tart. But eating people's food makes one soft-spoken, and I refuse to take your things," Fang Wenxuan replied. This time, he was determined not to forgive Lin Hui so easily; he needed to make Lin Hui realize where he went wrong and stop assuming that desserts like egg tarts could always win him over.
Lin Hui was in a bind. If food couldn't appeal to Fang Wenxuan, what else could? Was Wenxuan genuinely considering his old classmate? In Wenxuan's heart, was that old classmate perhaps a more suitable boyfriend?
"Wenxuan, Huizi, you guys got here quite early!"
Although his words outwardly accepted Wang Si's orders and expressed his readiness to complete the mission, his tone was intentionally directed at the Japanese officer. It was a pointed remark, deliberately spoken so the Japanese officer could hear.
The ethereal voice drifted from behind the curtain once again, laden with a pitiful tone that naturally stirred feelings of sympathy in anyone who heard it.
Furthermore, after all these days, everything had finally been completed this very morning. From now on, they would no longer have to worry about these matters, completely free of any lingering concerns. In a few days, they could bring the children back from abroad, and Liu Chengjun would be able to start a new life overseas.
"The Second Commander means..." The brother on the left seemed to have caught something from the hint, so he immediately asked Wang Si. Yet, just as the words reached his lips, he found it difficult to elaborate further.
After completing the wedding ceremony and bowing to their parents and guests, Zhao Ke hurried over to the Meet Again Tavern, finally managing to catch sight of her.
Strictly speaking, the person speaking to her was none other than Jiang Fan, who had left four years ago.
In an instant, the Grand Elder, who had appeared merely as an ordinary old man in Xiaoyun's eyes, seemed to tower infinitely. A pressure as heavy as a towering mountain enveloped him, and as he spoke, he channeled the mighty spiritual force of the primordial Qi-condensation realm's third tier, capable of piercing through all illusions and lies.
For a moment, they locked into a stalemate with Wang Si and his men, neither side able to break away. This state of affairs was decisively disadvantageous to Wang Si and the others.
Qiao Xia pressed her lips into a smile; with Sun Xiao's words, she felt completely reassured. No matter what, she still felt that Sun Xiao was truly part of the family.
Xu Rongrong frowned slightly at Xu Yan's condescending attitude, but in the end, she said nothing, taking the box into her hands and opening it to take a look.
Zhuo Yating bit her lower lip, then directly pulled out her phone, found Chen Feng's number, and dialed.
Guo Li was absent, leaving He Chou with the highest rank. With their leader arrested under murky and unexplained circumstances, how could this possibly end well?
However, she figured that a high-society big shot like Chen Feng would surely look down upon a country girl like Cui Tingting.
After half a month of recovery and treatment, today Ye Han's body finally returned to its peak condition.
"It doesn't matter. Qu Yue allowed Aunt Liu to bring her in, which means he has already checked her background. He would never let someone with questionable motives mix into his household," she replied in French, dismissing the matter with indifference.
He couldn't figure out why Axi had suddenly changed her mind and left him; right now, only a single voice echoed in his mind.
If matters of the heart were truly to be measured by time, how could there be so many tangled and complicated relationships in this world?
Standing nearby, Qin Ran watched the entire scene with utter astonishment. Not only had Zhong Zhicheng left his luggage at his uncle's house, but upon returning from Manshan County, he had not only managed to secure a car but also bought such an expensive gift.
"Alright, let's stop here. Don't delve too deeply into this kind of topic; the Boss won't appreciate us gossiping about his private life behind his back." An older assistant, who was also a graduate of ST Academy and now the chief of the assistant team, cast a stern, mature glare at the junior colleague who had let the slip of the tongue escape.
While worrying, Qin Ran received a call from Xiao Lan, and she was reminded of the experiment, wanting to ask how it was being handled.
Dismissing the servants, the three of them sat around a table to discuss the affairs of the Jiangnan Military Camp, which required Zhang Juzheng to oversee and manage.
