Chapter 101: If You Want to Call Someone "Brother," You Can Only Call Me

This time, it wasn’t just Cheng Fangping who was stunned; even Grandmother and Cheng Fang’an were so shocked they forgot to close their mouths.

What on earth—how did things get so chaotic?

The two had only stepped out for a moment, and upon returning, not only was there an extra woman, but the original “cousin-in-law” had somehow become “the younger uncle’s woman.”

Cheng Fang’an helped the dizzy grandmother to sit down, deciding to wait until the others sorted things out themselves before offering any explanation.

“Gu Kanchuan, what exactly are you all doing?”

“Is that so?” Lun was still somewhat skeptical. After all, anyone would struggle to accept the sudden revelation that a friend they’d spent over a year with had transformed overnight into a privileged child born with a golden key.

Yi Zhuofeng had already wandered off, his figure fading into the mist ahead, so he didn’t hear her muttering.

“This…” Abemia glanced toward the kitchen, thinking how much a large barrel of beer would cost.

Yunshan County was nicknamed the Garlic Town; the soil here was particularly suited for growing garlic, producing plump bulbs of exceptional quality. In recent years, with economic development, Yunshan not only cultivated ordinary garlic but also introduced and improved several varieties, achieving mass production of black garlic and solo garlic.

This imposing atmosphere gave Guanmie a sense of foreboding, but since he had proposed the redemption game, he could hardly refuse to play by the rules.

In an instant, Ye Feng hesitated. Although Jia Er held a decent position in the Jia household, it was only among the servants. Ye Feng couldn’t recall Jia Er ever claiming he was equal to the young masters of the Jia family.

Pingle Zewei ate the last piece of cake and collapsed limply onto the table, looking utterly drained.

Mu Yu, seeing this scene, genuinely worried whether they might get struck by lightning as they walked along.

Even injections, tests, and oxygen cost money; without it, no nurse would administer the shots prescribed by the doctor to Tang Xiaolan.

Maige looked at the girls all wrapped in down jackets, still feeling something was off—yet, at this hour, asking them to change into elegant evening gowns seemed equally unrealistic.

“Haha, I think you’ve misunderstood, Senior Brother. Among so many students below the stage, who do you think will win the top spot this time?” The dean laughed heartily, seemingly accustomed to his senior brother’s attitude toward him, and continued his questioning.

“Hmph! Didn’t you personally check the list? Didn’t you say there was nothing wrong with it? Besides, the circulated rumors indicate that Long Zha only spoke out under duress. Yu’er, don’t you see? You’ve been caught in Long Zha’s trap from the very beginning.” The Sky-Swallowing Serpent Emperor flicked his tongue, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.

Under Feng Ling’s command, the other disciples dared not disobey. In an instant, all who had rushed over, including Feng Wu, joined forces—three martial lords together. The flames in Fengxia Valley soared sky-high. It was the same Feng Yan Formation as before, but this time its power was unlike anything prior.

Thinking this, Cui Bin poured himself another glass of red wine and drank quietly, lost in his own thoughts.

Jing Mo watched his father’s twitching brows, closed his eyes in pain, his chest tight as if filled with fiery hemp seeds, his throat sore and swollen. Not seeing his father discipline anyone for a long while, his anxiety and worry gradually eased. Regaining focus, he quickly shot a glance at Bai Mi in the room, signaling her with his eyes.

The damage control crew aboard the battleship Maryland immediately began damage control measures. Unfortunately, the leaks could not be stopped, forcing them to seal off adjacent watertight compartments. This caused significant flooding, and the Maryland’s hull developed a noticeable list.

I checked the other two messages; both were from Zou Ruoxi, asking if the rumors online about me and Lu Zhengnan in England were true.

Xiao Mo slept for a full day and night. When he awoke, a soldier brought in a basin of meat soup. The aroma made Xiao Mo realize he was starving, so he grabbed it and ate with steamed buns. The soldier did not leave but stood guard outside the door.
