Volume 1, Chapter 140: If It Is Too Difficult, Then Forget About It!!

"So that's how it is, Zhu Xiaoxiao, you dare to defy me now!"
"I see you don't want to get your internship certificate after all!"
"Do you believe that I can go find the manager right now and have you fired?" Xia Rong threatened coldly.
"Go ahead, go find Manager Wu right now!"
"Let's see if he'll fire me!" Zhu Xiaoxiao was just as stubborn, her eyes turning red with anger.
Su Le watched from the side, witnessing Xia Rong's true colors. He knew that when it was time to act, he wouldn't hesitate. He just hadn't expected that buying a house would lead to so much trouble.
"Fine, since you want to challenge me, don't come crying to me when you regret it later!"
"I'm going to call the manager over right now..."
She didn't know who she should hate now; the beast who had humiliated her had already been killed by her own hands. What should she do next?
In the desert near Ximen Pass, there was a tavern. Gu Yunyan ordered a pot of shochu and a pound of beef. She wore a white bamboo hat, a black gauze dress, and a bright green jade bracelet on her wrist.
Shen Qingming bit her ear while continuing to steam the bread, lest he show any lack of proficiency in his craft.
At the entrance of this Qiankun Shopping Mall, ten poles had been erected. Tied to these poles with ropes were several corpses; some had been there for a while, while others had not been dead long, their bodies covered in blood, forming pools of gore beneath them.
It made sense; the entire capital was filled with soldiers hunting her down. Who would have thought she would be so suicidal as to dare head toward the imperial palace?
Perhaps, at some moment long ago, my desire to understand you had already surpassed my fear of being hurt.

It's over, it's all over. Song Bei specifically told me we were making dumplings. Does he... does he mean for me to knead the dough, but he's too shy to say it directly?
Prince Xian shook his head: "No need. Compared to me, there are others who care more about this news." He wanted to see how the Emperor would react.
Li Chaogu’s expression changed from dismay to delight, thinking Gu Qingnian had changed her mind, only to hear her continue.
At this hour, I wonder what Sheng Lezhan is doing. I wonder if he is thinking of me, just as I am thinking of him.
In short, there were a mountain of problems. Zhang Yuanhang knew he couldn't rush; he had to walk one step at a time.
Zhang Jialin, Lan Qi, and Li Yan shared similar expressions, clearly breaking into a cold sweat for Zhang You.
Li Ping inexplicably trusted Li Hao; she nodded reassuringly and walked out, looking back three times with every step.
As they spoke, Chong Heihu dismounted his fire-eyed golden-maned beast, opened his arms, and prepared to embrace Chong Yingbiao.
The next day at noon, Li Hao suddenly received news from Cheng Yaojin: Xue Rengui was at the Taiji Palace requesting an audience with Li Shiji to plead on Li Hao's behalf.
Along the banks of the Qinhuai River, lanterns were displayed, the sounds of strings and flutes drifted by, and the singing was melodious. Even the air was permeated with an evocative, faint fragrance.
The worst part was that the secret had slipped out when the Prince of Jin's fourth son, Xu Chang, spoke too freely in front of his mother, the consort. How did Xu Chang know his father was keeping a mistress? That was a coincidence.
"Alright then!" Cheng Chumo shouted happily, waving to his two younger brothers, "Brothers, let's get to work!" With that, he charged at Du He, who turned and ran in terror.
Qingfeng patted Hu Bayi's arm, took off the magic bag he was carrying, and handed it to Yingzi for safekeeping. Although these magical artifacts were not heavy, their bulky shape hindered his agility.
Dou Rong's various attributes were basically the same as Huang Feihu's. In particular, his hidden "City Defense" attribute was the counterpart to Huang Feihu's "City Siege" attribute. It seemed there was some truth to these two being called the "Shield and Spear" of the Shang Dynasty.
Under Zhang Zhongxin's combat prowess, many had already defected. Under his propaganda, not supporting Tang Ning was tantamount to treason.
The man walked all the way to the railing and stopped. His tall, upright silhouette looked imposing. With his hands in his pockets, he gazed into the distance, though it was unclear what he was looking at.
Ten minutes later, the main force arrived. Ling Lan followed behind Gu Hanhao, put on gloves and shoe covers, and stepped into the crime scene.

"Oh, I came here with good intentions to mediate the fight, not to join in!" Xilisha said, acting pitifully.
As Xu Shiyun's younger brother, Xu Zuoyan went to help greet the guests. Xu's parents arrived at ten o'clock. Knowing Zuoyan was there, they brought him some desserts, which moved Xu Zuoyan so much that he hugged his mother on the spot and wouldn't let go, making her laugh uncontrollably.
Compared to the others, Yan Ying's thoughts were more complex. At this moment, her heart was filled with pride and joy at her son Nie Feng's strength, worry that Jue Wushen would target him, and a flutter of excitement that another expert comparable to Jue Wushen had appeared in the martial arts world.
Feng Yang was both pleasantly surprised and depressed. In the illusion array, he had seen the power of a Heaven-level martial artist; even ordinary half-insects were no match for them. But was this milky, fragrant energy really meant for fighting?
Tang Ning first listed all the aspects she could think of into an outline, then researched the information on the Xiliang Kingdom, revising it point by point according to national conditions.
This was a characteristic of the aquatic physique; those who lived in the deep sea had body temperatures much lower than those of land-dwelling races.
"That remains to be seen." Ye Kaicheng smiled, finally letting go of Xu Zuoyan, and said with full confidence.
"Look at how easily impressed you are! Isn't it just a pickup truck? That muscle-bound, typical American tough-guy style. It's so silly, what's there to look at? Only you boys like that stuff!" Liu Yifei teased.
I intended to take care of that sheep demon while I was at it, but the beast hid in an abandoned grotto-heaven. I went in to catch him and, by a stroke of luck, ended up in the chaotic void above.
However, he was ultimately no match for an expert like Sang Buli. After a brief flurry of combat, it took no time at all for them to be slaughtered, their mangled remains scattered across the ground.
Then Jiang Haoran shifted his focus, casually swiping his hands through the air. A phantom image appeared in the void, and the image of a broken blade materialized before Mo Ji.
Amidst the golden light, people actually saw a five-clawed divine dragon soaring through the nine heavens, a golden phoenix rising from the ashes of rebirth, as well as towering golden palaces and immortal beings who never perished.
Zheng Xudong could tell that Ou Zhaolun was truly happy. He tilted his head back and downed a third of his glass of red wine. Zheng Xudong drank his own wine as well, then pulled a cigar from his pocket and handed it to Ou Zhaolun. After lighting one for himself, they both began to smoke.
Although Luo Zixiu had risen to power with great force, people only knew of his strength. At this moment, without evidence, his words alone were not enough to convince people. This was the question most people present wanted to ask, and for a moment, Luo Zixiu became the center of everyone's attention.
As Yao Chen grew angry, the already fragile soul of Venerable Skyfire showed signs of shattering.
