146. The One Who Saved the Earth in a Previous Life
During the film promotion period, Qu Wan didn’t join the crew but stayed close to Jiang Zeyu’s side, still disguised as a staff member.
The airport was completely congested upon landing.
Although she knew it was inappropriate to say, Qu Wan couldn’t help but wonder if her own death would ever attract such a lively and grand scene.
There were bodyguards around Jiang Zeyu, and Qu Wan walked behind, utterly ignored.
Only after she had already left the airport did Jiang Zeyu finally arrive, leisurely and late.
After much effort, they finally boarded the nanny van.
“I really envy you,” Qu Wan said with a sour tone.
Jiang Zeyu chuckled lightly, “Would you want this kind of fortune if I gave it to you?”
“Not really.”
“Alright then, thank you very much,” the attendant said joyfully. The four of them with red eyes entered the White Ripple. It must be said that the White Ripple did excellent business; despite such a grand event, it was not fully booked. This wasn’t due to poor business—in fact, the place was bustling with crowds, teeming with people.

After Lin Zheng spoke, he seized the chaos and leapt deep into the sea. Once he left, the pilot immediately climbed higher, aiming the machine gun at the enemies fleeing from the woods back to the shore, continuing the sweep.
The plainclothes man being stared down endured the rising pressure in his chest, tasting iron in his mouth but still grit his teeth in silence.
Lei Tingting didn’t say much either, just replied with a “Okay,” then changed direction and sped toward the city’s First Hospital.
Fortunately, Zhang Yingqiu was also there. Especially Zhang Yingqiu—now he was more or less unemployed right after graduation.
Judging by the burly man’s age, he was probably in his early forties, wearing sunglasses, but dressed like a foreign restaurant waiter, yet exuding a gangster’s aura.
Fan Ge had been implicated in more crimes and was wanted, but his methods were formidable, and no trace of him had been found for the time being.
“Yes, it’s raining!” Qi Zihan blushed upon hearing this. She didn’t want to tell Zhang Fan that she was talking while taking a shower, which would be terribly awkward.
He left to contact Xia Fei, instructing her to block all these backup identities. As long as Moses used any of these passports to log into any system, he would be detected.
The dagger’s murderous chill, which had claimed countless lives, seemed to linger on the chin, giving Shi Lei a sense of narrowly escaping death.
Mentioning the master, Fei’er’s face showed a faint but unmistakable hint of disgust. She calmly said, “Isn’t it better if he doesn’t come?” Then she turned coldly away, looking elsewhere.
“Damn! Zhong Guolong and Chen Lihua are really in trouble now!” Li Yongjun lit a cigarette in frustration.
After spending time with Tang Qiao, whether through subtle influence or some other reason, you found yourself slowly accepting him. Even when Tang Qiao made physical contact, you felt your face flush and your heart pound.

Wang Cailian felt a warm flush on her face but couldn’t quite grasp what had changed.
This was the so-called “beating the master with a flurry of sticks,” but Gu Yu had no sticks—only fists—so it was more like “beating the master to death with wild punches.”
For this mission, Leader He went all out, ordering seven or eight dishes, all signature items of the place, quite expensive.
The car reached the highway exit and waited nearly twenty minutes before a police car with sirens blaring rushed over. The police car braked sharply beside Xu Li’s car. Zhao Guoqing jumped down from the passenger seat and climbed into Xu Li’s vehicle.
“It’s just a cold, no need for you all to worry so much,” Mrs. Lin leaned slightly on the bedside, smiling gently at Zhi Lan and Qi Xuan as they busied themselves around the room.
That afternoon, after the report on the future of the Taiji software the previous night, Li Pang noticed Lei Jun and Steve seemed distracted and didn’t say much more, knowing his earlier words would take them some time to digest.
“Damn it, is this place even fit for human beings!” Gu Yu stepped back several paces, stopped midair, and roared angrily.
Chijin was stunned again. He had expected this to be shoddy work, but to his surprise, it was incredibly solid—arrows shot at it bounced off like they’d struck rock.
