175 Wanwan has grown up

Qu Jin felt a bit uneasy, and sitting in his office only made him more anxious. This news was strictly confidential, so Qu Wan shouldn't find out about it so quickly. Even if she did find out, she would probably just cry at home and then call him to ask for help.

Several times, Qu Jin checked his phone, but Qu Wan hadn't sent any messages or made any calls; the phone remained completely quiet. Perhaps she didn't know yet. Still feeling uneasy, Qu Jin decided to call home.

Yu Mei answered.

"What is it?"

"Where is Wanwan?"

"Your sister already left. She said the company made a last-minute schedule change for a public appearance. I saw her change into sportswear and leave with her backpack."

Qu Jin reached up and pressed his browbone.

Seeing Xia Er remain silent, Felix became even more smug. Everything he was saying now wasn't meant for Xia Er to hear, nor was it for himself, but rather for the disciplinary committee members standing behind him who were still uncertain whether Xia Er was the "Magic Devourer."

Xiao Qingcheng waited anxiously at the estate, sending people to continuously gather news about the Song family, while deep regret gnawed at his heart.

Chen Xing scratched his head. He decided to turn away and pretend not to see. Things had reached this point, and if he refused, it would only put Fan Ying in an awkward, difficult position in the middle.

The entire colossal stone surprisingly looked just like a house, suspended motionless deep within the ocean depths. Its appearance was both unbelievable and astonishing.

Guan Chenji could not be certain whether Gu Meng had bumped into anything at the exact moment the lights went out. However, Gu Meng's expression didn't seem to suggest that. This intangible, out-of-reach feeling unexpectedly gave Guan Chenji a trace of panic.

"Yes!" Ye Tianyu answered with absolute certainty, without even blinking, completely sure, positive, and definite.

Xiu Yue did not speak. Dragging his axe, he walked over slowly with a vacant gaze, looking as though he had been possessed by evil spirits.

Yet, in the recording footage, the audience's good-natured laughter triggered by Pei Yuelyu imitating Chen Xing's dance was retained.

When everyone was not paying attention, Father Zhou also slipped away quietly. However, he felt no sense of regret, for he knew that his words had already planted the seeds of doubt in the hearts of those reporters. It was only a matter of time before this news surfaced again.

"I still have to do my rounds, so I must leave first. Just stay in the hospital for observation for a few days to ensure there are no problems before you leave. Well, that's it." With that, the plump doctor left the ward with a smile.

His gaze fell upon Peng Mo, who stood quietly nearby. Perhaps Jin Rui's transformation was because of her?

Three loud claps echoed clearly through the pin-drop silence of the hall, causing everyone to turn toward the sound.

Early in the morning, Sun Changjiang bid farewell to Shi Yi and left the courtyard, claiming that something had happened back in his hometown and he needed to handle it. Reluctantly, Shi Yi saw her grandfather off, but upon turning back to see Lu Tong beside her, her mood instantly brightened. She was no longer alone; having a good friend by her side meant she would never be lonely again.

"Master Yang! Master Yang! I'm leaving now. Once your spiritual retreat is complete, I'll come to your pet shop to find you," Shi Yi shouted as she ran toward Yang Linxiao.

The fighter jet, which had been climbing vertically, abruptly shifted from the climb into a steep dive, completing an extremely strange and unnatural turn in mid-air as it plunged straight down toward the majestic metallic wings of the alien mechanical warrior.

"Continue implementing the previous policy. I give you the authority to recruit soldiers, but you must ensure the quality," Chen Ning replied.

While immersed in happiness, Liu Lingshan still harbored some worry—fear that Peter, this ticking time bomb, would detonate at an inappropriate moment, even though she had already agreed to cooperate with him.

"Anyway, I'm going up to the Second Floor Princess Hall today! I have plenty of money!" Liu Lingshan began to roar in dissatisfaction, drawing a wave of gasps and whispers from the people in the hall.

This Aunt Zhang was certainly familiar with her situation. Shi Yi couldn't help being startled and wanted to ask for clarification, but right at that moment, a rapid knocking sounded at the door.

"We all took action; anyone in our position would have done the same. For those comrades-in-arms, we've done everything within our power. It is the entire world that has gone against us, not us failing the world. You have no reason to reproach yourself," Valentine said calmly.
