Chapter 135: 132 Gameplay

Bai Xiaosheng is close to finalizing the Series B funding, which will not only alleviate the company’s cash flow issues and accelerate its development, but also bring additional profits to Hongshen Capital.

And an increase in Guo Shanfeng’s short positions.

Liu Wan, besides being astonished by the renown investor’s demeanor, genuinely felt that this information exceeded her own knowledge framework.

Only after meeting Yu Xing that night and carefully researching the relevant details did she offer him her understanding.

「

Yet in his mind, he never imagined his marriage would shock Pei Shiyin, for the girl had never once shown him any sign of caring in his presence.

“Wait a minute! If the homeroom teacher shows up now, we’re done for!” Wang Kang gritted his teeth; though he himself wanted to bolt, he remembered he was the class labor officer—technically a class cadre—and should set an example.

“Huh… where did all the birds go yesterday?” Er Gouzi stared at the empty surroundings—only trees and weeds—no birds in sight—and let out a startled cry.

But now was not the time to dwell on such things; many had been injured by the black-clad men. Bao Chun propped herself up with her sword and charged at them, but she could not hold out long before being knocked back a great distance again.

Even though she now only needs to purchase five thousand thunder pearls per trip from Sun Minghua and Hu Qi—that’s just over two thousand crystals—her “feeding cost” has dropped dramatically, and the total crystal count after settlement has risen from one or two thousand to over four thousand.

“Morning exercise? Uh… yeah, morning exercise is good for health!” Too nervous, I mechanically echoed his words, my mind blank; though I felt reluctant, the pressure inside me dissolved like a tide receding.

Even after Xiang Nan told her about the past, she had simply accepted it as fact, never once wondering what such a scene had actually looked like.

“Your Grace need not bow so low; the immediate priority is capturing this evil creature before it escapes. If it truly absorbs the boy’s essence and becomes the Demon King, the entire city’s people will suffer.” I spoke urgently.

At that moment, Sun Minghua suddenly received a reminder from the Wheel of Rebirth: a hidden belt carried an external message.

Xue Yue’s cheeks flushed crimson. “What time is this to be so flippant?” She slapped his hand away.

The attack was coming, but the Peony Immortal could not break away—her entire strength was devoted to controlling the peony’s death. If she stopped to defend against Haitian, Hao Feng and Ma Teng would seize the opening; yet if she abandoned her defense, this blow might be too much to withstand.

He truly had ill intentions, but Tang Yun had already outmaneuvered him, even causing him to fall ill for a long time and stay out of sight.

Seeing the other side ask him, Chun Lei frowned at A Ke. “What are you doing here? Are you allied with the Sun-Moon Gang to exterminate us?”

But after careful thought, he realized his divination had never been wrong—Tang Yun must be putting on a show.

At that moment, Jiu Ge suddenly walked up to Wu Tian and whispered something in his ear. Afterward, I saw Wu Tian nod, then release Qin Feng.

After all, his own younger sister was helping his enemy against him—no matter who this happened to, it would make the victim rage until he spat blood three pints.

Not to mention her injuries—her face was swollen and bruised, so battered he couldn’t tell her age.

In truth, he wasn’t really hurt—he just wanted to see her, to make himself noticeable in her presence.

This place looked nothing like the residence of a top-tier Tianmen Sect figure, yet the dungeon map clearly marked this as the third boss spawn point—there was no mistake.

“That’s all?” Gu Yanchi raised an eyebrow, sensing that Aunt Liu was deliberately hiding something.
