Chapter 30: You Never Intended to Marry Me, So Why Ask for the Right to Know?

"Do you really think she loves you for who you are? She has always been in love with your money!"

Yu Qingzhou told Liang Youjia about the check he had given Xianyu. "She said she would take the money and leave."

"To abandon you for a mere million—it just goes to show how vain and shallow that woman truly is."

Liang You paused...

Having just finished wrapping his wound with a yellow cloth, a knock sounded at the door. "Knock, knock, knock! Zhanyun, time for breakfast!" Dong Zhanyun was startled; the person at the door was none other than Madam Wu. He could hardly believe he was actually in her home.

Because the clever girl had requested thick earth-element stone with water-like properties, and the explosive stone was a fire-element mineral, they acted as natural foils to one another. Ultimately, it was the neutralizing effect of the thick earth stone that compensated for this flaw; otherwise, Dong Zhanyun could never have successfully fused them.

Upon hearing this, Peng Mo lowered her head shyly, bit her lip, and whispered, "Thank you, Your Highness." With that, she pulled her arm back and sat down on a stool nearby.

Now, as long as Dong Zhanyun could control the pace of the match, he stood a fighting chance against Yuan Caini.

"You can simply detach them from the warships I’ve already ordered. This way, it won't increase your production pressure, it will ease my own financial burden, and it will keep the Imperial Court satisfied. However, I must insist that my requirements for the submarines be met," Chen Ning suggested.

Peng Shuo shook his head. "At this stage, do you think she’s still afraid of being punished? It’s clear she has something else in mind!" As for what that might be, he couldn't fathom.

"Their weaknesses?" The scientists and super-powered individuals present frowned and exchanged glances, none of them knowing what Andrei was up to.

"Oh, look at you, smiling so sweetly. Ever since you found out Xiao Menglou survived, you’ve been wearing that heart-melting smile for everyone. Do you have any idea how many poor men in this lunar hospital have misinterpreted it and been wounded by your charm?" Misty said with a sinister grin.

Between this subterranean river and the nine-colored lake, there existed a thin, membrane-like barrier, much like a film of water!

"Mr. Sato, these are the partial design blueprints for the battleship I am offering you. Take a look and see if they meet your requirements. I can guarantee that this battleship will be the most advanced of its kind, with firepower, tonnage, and armor far superior to any battleship currently produced by European or American nations," Chen Ning stated.

It seemed her husband could no longer hold on; the crushing weight of their massive debt had left them breathless.

Lewis recalled the check-up he had undergone at the hospital, where the doctor mentioned an abnormality in his corpus callosum neurons. Could he be suspecting that Sun Meng was a "Super-Brain," or perhaps wondering if a brain controlled by a Super-Brain would also exhibit changes in the corpus callosum?

His mind was a mess, so tangled he didn't even know where to begin sorting it out. Her kiss kept playing over and over in his thoughts—it had been so calm. To her, was that kiss truly nothing more than a condition of their exchange?

After the interrogation, Lewis checked out of his room and sat by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby, waiting for word from Zong Ming. Fifteen minutes later, police ambulances arrived, wheeling several wounded men from the scene. They appeared to be Zheng Tiansheng’s subordinates, but he himself was not among them.

Liunian was not worthy of an apology from her, and she had done nothing wrong, so there was no reason for her to apologize at all.

On the left and right sides of the stone cave, two coffins were placed; however, they appeared to be nothing more than ordinary stone sarcophagi.

Their future was just beginning, and she knew her life would surely be filled with happiness, for they loved each other so deeply.

Upon hearing those words from Yu Xian, Liancheng Yanran lifted her head once more and looked at him, her eyes filled with confusion.

With a sudden pivot, a long sword flashed into his hand. The direction in which he had been sent flying was exactly where Ling Xuefei was lying.
