Chapter 477: Mom

Shen Siyuan was talking with Ruan Hongzhuang on the balcony when Dou Dou ran over holding Shen Siyuan's phone.

"Sweet-potato-pot-pot, your phone is squawking, so noisy, don't know who's calling you..."

"Thank you."

Shen Siyuan reached out to take it, said thanks, then asked, "Why aren't you playing games with Duoduo?"

"She can't, I won't play with her," Dou Dou said.

But her voice was not firm at all, and her gaze was wavering.

"Yes, Hongfu takes her leave~" Hongfu moved her lips, but in the end, not a single word was spoken. Regarding Ji Anhe's concern, her eyes flickered slightly with avoidance; from the moment she entered until she turned to leave, she never dared to glance once at the person on the bed.

Since this film set was a bit far from our district, I ate something at a late-night snack stall to fill my stomach, then returned to the rental house. After getting home, I touched my cheek; a sharp, stinging pain shot through it. I thought, Ruan Lingyu is truly ruthless; he gave me a warning the very first day.

Bai Youxi sat off to the side; she did not want to be too close to Gong Papi, as he might turn his cannon on her at any moment.

Zhongnan ordered his personal guards to pass the command down and bring the two captured Bai Lian Sect members to his tent. He intended to see these two: first, to see if he could obtain any intelligence about the Bai Lian Sect, and second, to send a message to the Bai Lian Sect's high command through them—do not cause trouble in Dongchang again.

"Oh, it's just a Rank 3 (Standard) official position; how can that be considered a promotion!" Zhongnan climbed the pole higher.

On this street, Su Wanniang could walk it even with her eyes closed, and could tell by counting her steps exactly which shop lay ahead.

While moving forward at high speed, I suddenly felt something was wrong with the woods around us. But the jade pendant in my arms did not feel hot, so I could not suspect anything. Then I thought again that my jade pendant was sometimes spiritual and sometimes not. So I told my feelings to the two of them.

Gu Xiaoran destroyed the note, muttering with some resentment, while his mind raced, thinking hard about how to respond.

As soon as Qiao Na finished speaking, Shen Shilin swept past her and looked at me; his gaze lingered on my torn and ragged clothes.

I smiled brightly at him. Below, the next round grew larger and larger. Shen Shilin came beneath me; I idly swung my legs, watching my skirt hem sway in the wind at the window, tracing the most beautiful arc. I smiled very happily.

Seeing Jianning ride away on the black steed, Ayundu and Yihana both bit their lips at the same time.

Aunt Du replied to me, "They were all temporarily accepted by the public welfare orphanage; some were later adopted by families. Your cousin is one of them, right?" As she spoke, Aunt Du looked me up and down with a suspicious gaze.

Hearing Zhou Yaze's gentle and kind words, my panicked heart gradually calmed down. Seeing me soften, he gently pulled me into his embrace.

Moreover, in my subconscious, I truly regarded him as my own boss, calling him "General Manager Zhang" fluently, one after another.

Yet now, I cannot even know exactly what first love is. Occasionally, I think it is merely teaching people to see the original form of love, to begin knowing the feeling of a racing heart, to understand being kind to strange members of the opposite sex, to know gratitude, to tell kind lies, and to make promises that can never be fulfilled.

They were chatting and laughing, unaware of what had just happened in the place they had just left.

Exposing one's whereabouts at such close range, with an opponent being a fleet of 120 ships, would be a catastrophic disaster.

At that time, wherever they met, they were both so cold, with no exchange of words; there was only him looking at her coldly, and nothing more.

He returned a few taels of silver to Niu Dawei, sent him to a tailor shop to buy several sets of clothes, and also to hire a stone-carver to carve a tombstone for his mother.
