Chapter 674: Heartlessly Wealthy

August 2002, the AFC held its elections—

The Malaysian Amosha formally stepped down; the new AFC president is the Qatari Mohammed bin Hamman.

Thus, this Asian Cup is the first major tournament held by Hamman himself during his term, and he values it immensely, both emotionally and logically.

Most importantly, he is not short of money—

Even if the AFC were short of money, he would not be.

Behind him lies Qatar

"Mr. Lin, these material developments equal five years of work from all of Huaxia's material research institutes. Once these are all researched, what will you do?" One team member was curious; this single effort had accomplished years of work for their aerospace center.

As soon as Rongping saw her mother angry, she dared not utter a single word. If she spoke up, Wang Xiu would bomb her into sobbing. So, no matter how unreasonable or unruly Wang Xiu was, Rongping pretended to be mute and even hurriedly left.

Especially when Chu Tian told Yun Tian that he had gone from being doted on by thousands to suddenly abandoned by the world, it greatly reduced Yun Chang's inner resentment toward Chu Tian.

Walking all the way with eyes on the nose and nose on the heart until reaching De Fei's presence, having mastered the etiquette flawlessly, she took out the bright yellow cloth doll given to her by Cui Liu after paying respects, without waiting for De Fei to ask.

These days, Tian Feiyang practiced the Three Yang Sword Technique in his cave dwelling whenever he had free time. Though the technique has only eighteen moves, each move contains many variations, making mastery far from easy.

At this moment, everyone was stunned. Those who had just mocked Song Heng turned pale and averted their heads, fearing Song Heng would recognize them.

Xu Yuan was formerly a top student and cared deeply about this plan of rebirth through Nirvana. However, since the death of his late wife Liu Pei, Xu Yuan's temperament changed drastically.

The Shaw family still owns twelve cinemas in Hong Kong. As long as the Shaw family has not sold these properties, no matter how long you cooperate with us, they will remain open to your films, charging only forty percent of the box office.

Ye Feng waited a moment before stepping out. The closer he approached the corpses of the Jiaolong and the Mermaid Beast, the higher the temperature, as if he were inside a furnace.

At the same time, Duanmu Youning, leaning casually against the head of the bed, spoke softly. In the candlelight, wisdom gleamed in her eyes.

Every time Yiman asked Cheng Xian questions, she was clearly asking for trouble. Yet this girl Yiman stubbornly failed to learn her lesson, asking each time with great delight.

Mu Xinglan flashed her figure, blocking the three restless Ming Ling as well, and spoke to Ming Mo. Knowing that staying meant only death, Ming Mo nodded slightly to Ling Shuangyan and Mu Xinglan, then moved his feet, flying swiftly toward the distant sky.

Perhaps this parting meant he would never see her again, but Ming Mo had no regrets, because if time were to start over, he would still choose to leave. He bore many burdens, and Mu Xinglan bore no few either; moreover, the two were destined not to belong to the same world.

After venting Yan Yi's anger, he realized he had lost his composure. His expression changed immediately, returning to that calm demeanor, though his eyes remained cold as he asked.

With an awkward smile, Bai Yue said to Ming Mo, "I am returning. Remember, I will always wait for you." After speaking, Bai Yue left directly through the door.

"Hehe, why doesn't Fifth Brother believe me? How about we make a bet?" Fang Hui smiled and asked Lao Wu, who was driving ahead.

"At their level of cultivation, unless one side dies in battle, it is truly too difficult to determine a winner," Mr. Tianjing sighed lightly.

Yang Mengsheng had eaten only coarse grains these past years, not having tasted white flour for many years. He took a deep breath, and a tear plopped into his bowl of noodles.

Yun Qingxue apologized in a low voice, "I did not intend to deceive you; at that time, I had no choice... Actually, I am not from the Yun Huang Illusion Realm."

Their strength was far greater than that of the world where they were born; the only regret was the lack of an opportunity to ascend.
