Chapter 598: One Who Fails to Scheme the Whole Cannot Scheme a Corner

In a bedroom in the rear courtyard of Kaifeng County Government Office, Li Yi sat before an oil lamp, her beautiful eyes fixed on the flame, her heart anxious from long waiting.

She was also at a loss, plagued by fear of gain and loss.

Even though Fang Chongyong had already sent someone to tell her that she would spend the night here.

Yet Li Yi still didn't know what mood to adopt to face this man.

The feeling of that large, calloused hand brushing over her delicate body remained etched in her memory.

It was just that Zhou You had overlooked a fact: he was not a pampered pet dog that could get by by acting cute.

Li Kui relied on this swaggering deceit along the way; no one dared to provoke him, and he was unguarded. When Wu Yong asked, he proudly recounted how he met Zhang San and how Zhang San had twice sent him silver.

Guo Honglei, hot‑tempered and unable to calm down, barely struggled before pulling his arm, gently pushing his wife aside, sprinting forward, and with a crackle of whips he lashed seven or eight times.

Wu Yong had seen Zhang San everywhere; most people in the hall had also seen Zhang San. Chao Gai and Wu Yong had even dined and chatted with Zhang San. Wu Yong's question was merely to probe the black giant's background.

"Lord Gongyang, there's no need to rush; we still have plenty of time," said the handsome, sculpted‑faced uncle Abe Kan, soothing his manager at an unhurried pace.

"If Grandfather Liu wants to go forward, let Grandfather Liu go; I'm tired of walking and plan to rest here," Zhao Qing said, feigning indifference.

One of the Su Mu dogs looked relatively normal; Zhou You noticed it barking desperately toward the west, probably because it had once seen Milan there.

Grandma Huang never expected that Xia Qingrao's loud quarrel this afternoon would still be heard by her own lady.

"We found two pearls in the southwest direction," Chen Jun took a dirty handkerchief from his pocket, unfolded it, and revealed two bright scarlet sacrificial beads.

Of course, he also knew this method could only scare her and could not be truly carried out; otherwise, if the moment came and he failed to placate her, it would truly damage the relationship between the two, which would be a loss.

Tong Yan heard this and felt an immediate oppression in his heart. He knew those guys were after him, but because he had entered the Star Realm, Xue Er, Ye Ying, and Siming Xingjun were all implicated.

The gray Porsche kept pulling away from the main traffic on the highway, heading farther into remote roads toward the villa.

Sasuke, with dual thunder‑electric attributes and the potential of the Sharingan, truly had no one more suitable than Kakashi.

Qi Feng watched Wei Qingcheng devour his food, his jaw nearly dropping in shock—was this still the same Wei Qingcheng who, after a single cough, made the whole building tremble three times?

Jia Gongdao said, "From Night Rain River, after two days we can exit Yaozi Valley, enter Qutang Gorge, then follow the current into the Yangtze River, and sailing downstream eastward will bring us to Yangzhou in at most ten days." Ye Suiyun relaxed, nodded appreciatively, and gave thanks.

It wasn't that the players didn't want to leave the hotel; the intercontinental hotel lacked a nearby supermarket, shopping required a long walk, and the internet was mediocre. So after breakfast, everyone unanimously went to the outdoor pool.

The old man's expression changed; with a motion of his withered, thin hands, he clamped the Divine Oracle Sword.

At the critical moment, Zheng Dali still held the field, was immediately scolded and sent back, and Chen Xu watched, his heart pounding.

Li Qifeng sat quietly by the fire, finally finding a rare break to enjoy a hot pot, only to be disturbed by these unexpected guests.

The red‑haired youth whispered, then lifted his head; his young, handsome face gave Ai Luo a slight start.

"The Fourth Circle is absolutely impossible; the Sixth Circle's master is rather timid; the Eighth Circle is also unlikely."
