Chapter 257: Dou Dou Takes Credit

"It's this late? You're not staying home—what are you doing running over to my place?" Shen Siyuan got out of bed and poured himself a glass of water.

"It's so boring at home! I've already watched the cartoons so many times, and Daddy and Mommy are going to sleep, so nobody's playing with me."

Dou Dou was bouncing up and down on the bed, not acting like an outsider at all.

"Then you could go find your Sister Meiqi," Shen Siyuan said after taking a sip of water.

"That's boring too, all we can do is sit

From the moment he walked in, he noticed that Xie Lanqian's expression wasn't quite natural, as though she were hiding something; but if she didn't want to talk, asking would be pointless.

Who could have known that after so many years, Chu Tianlong—who had nearly forgotten about the jade pendant's missing piece—would, in this way, encounter and successfully collect the second jade pendant?

"Young Master, do you think Cold Cedar got smashed to bits?" Cold Qing, watching the scene from the side, couldn't help feeling sorry for Cold Cedar.

The difference was, the Han family wasn't as complicated as the Cold family; the Han family had only this one sole heir, who was also very much doted on at home.

"I can't walk anymore. How about you give me a piggyback?" Tang Ning'an said, pushing her luck as she looked at Leng Haoxuan. A provocative smile on her face, she gazed at Leng Haoxuan smugly and spoke to him.

It was the adults—Kong Ma and Zhou Li Yun among them—who, upon hearing Su Qing's words, revealed looks of shock.

The most outrageous part was the claim that it was the Gotham police who had made the move, in order to fire the first shot against the underground world.

Su Qing drove Guo Shuwei back to the villa, told him to wait in the first-floor living room for a while, and went up to the third floor herself to print two copies of a simple labor contract she had found online.

From the moment Huaxi came in, the viewers in the livestream had been looking forward to seeing how Huaxi and Muchuan would meet.

"Then just leave it for now, we'll talk by phone. But you said earlier your phone had no battery—how could it suddenly work again? That's really strange." Ling Xiaocan couldn't help sighing, but with so many strange things happening these past few days, she didn't want to spend any more energy thinking about it.

Bai Xue certainly knew that the one who had attacked the prince was Yang Yi, but judging from the prince's description and the situation at the time, Yang Yi had attacked the prince before rescuing her—why would he do that? Bai Xue racked her brains but couldn't figure it out. Could it be that he had known in advance a prince would come to save her, so he had ambushed that prince?

This extraordinarily heavy rain did nothing to ease the drought; no one knew where all that water had gone. Strangely enough, as soon as Lu Benzhong left, the water in the Qi River slowly receded—perhaps in a while it would dry up enough to expose the riverbed.

When the two collided, a heaven-shaking boom—"Hong!"—the sea water split apart, space shattered, and Kong Xuan and Mo Yu involuntarily retreated a distance of ten thousand li.

It was none other than Supreme Pure Saint Daode Xiao Tian Jun, gazing at the Great Wasteland with a soft sigh, saying: "Such is the will of Heaven; even a saint can do nothing about it!" As his words fell, divine light flickered all around his body, and he transformed into a streak of divine light that flew toward a place in the Eastern Sea.

"Come!" With a flick of his hand, a whirlwind rose up from level ground and rushed toward the lightning; the two crashed into each other, and the lightning within the whirlwind kept splitting apart, flashing and striking.

As Reby carved, the rules on the barrier began to change; the rule forbidding entry and exit for those over eighty was erased. Natsu tentatively reached out a hand, and the barrier that had been utterly solid just moments before had now vanished without a trace.

Fuman handed the remaining shoe to Yang Yi. To be safe, Yang Yi put the real glass slipper into his right pocket, and tucked the glass slipper that the Red Dancing Shoes had transformed into into the wide sleeve on his right side. That way, once they found Cinderella's home, Yang Yi could quickly slip the Red Dancing Shoes onto Cinderella's feet.

Whirlwinds began appearing in the air from nowhere, slamming into Lin Tianxuan's floating cluster. Lin Tianxuan kept dodging in the air, his flying figure looking quite disheveled, but the raging winds attacked wave after wave; even Lin Tianxuan himself, focusing intently to cope, found it extremely taxing, and had no choice but to drive his true qi to constantly strengthen his control.
