Did you forget me?

When all the performances had ended, the audience and the judges cast their votes.

Qu Wan, standing with her back to the giant screen and unable to see the scrolling tally, kept her eyes fixed on the people below the stage.

When the host finally announced that they could turn around, Qu Wan did not wear the tense expression of the others. She simply spun about and looked.

When she saw her vote count, she was genuinely surprised; it was far better than she had imagined.

There were three hundred audience members in the hall.

Qu Wan received two hundred forty-nine votes.

Yu Sheng held first place with two hundred sixty-five votes.

Qu Wan was second.

Standing right beside her, Yu Sheng saw the numbers and stared in utter disbelief. She covered her mouth in astonishment, then her eyes reddened as though she might cry.

At that moment, Xiao Yao also opened something like a screen. It showed Ouyang Xiong leading his men away in defeat, while the Seven-Petal Lone Lotus had only three petals left unfaded.

So Haotian was preparing to try letting Wanda probe Doctor Blue’s mind to find the location where the nuclear fusion bomb had been hidden, and thus eliminate this hidden danger.

Mo Chonglian merely glanced at him and ignored him no further. His gaze fell on Gu Chaoxi. At that moment, Jun Qing had his arm around Gu Chaoxi’s waist, their bodies almost pressed together, looking exceedingly intimate.

Qiu Yun had no ambition to monopolize the whole market, and reality would not allow it anyway. But that did not mean he could not seize as much of the market as possible before anyone else, and establish a corresponding brand.

Sagerhart listened in silence; no one knew what it was thinking. To meet its master again after a hundred years of separation was, in truth, to say farewell forever. In that instant, it suddenly felt that this fellow was not quite so hateful after all.

"How insolent!"

Consort Qi’s face had turned the color of pig liver. She had never dreamed that there would be such a brazen daredevil in the kingdom of Qin.

"Chen! Have you still not seized the Cosmic Cube?"

The captain’s voice came through the communicator; he was still locked in struggle with Loki.

As for whether this was being done to repay the two of them, that was even less likely. With Liu Ruohan’s temperament, she would rather choose her own way of repaying a debt than use such an awkward method. It did not suit her usual manner of doing things.

Because these defensive barriers were sustained by her magic, their sudden collapse placed a tremendous burden on her magical circuits. The dizziness nearly caused Irisviel to collapse beneath the corridor.

It hovered at the highest point in the air, only a step away from the great magic circle. Yet even over such a short distance, when it moved, it still cast its immense shadow upon the ground; only after a long while did the darkness drift away with its motion.

"This is not flattery. It is truly the heartfelt sentiment of all the brothers here."

"Then are you giving it or not?" I said, pointing the Desert Eagle at Qin Tian. Of course, I was not actually aiming at him; I was pointing into the empty space behind him. A gun should always be trained on the enemy, never on one’s own brother.

The city was full of corpses, the city was full of blood. The general I had once loathed had been shot dead by a hail of arrows atop the walls, while the comrades I had once regarded as common rabble now, when the city was breached, fearlessly swung their sabers and met the iron hooves of the Xiongnu head-on.

I tore open the wrapper and popped the chocolate into my mouth. A sweet bitterness flooded my palate and spread through my entire body. Perhaps it was only psychological, but as the chocolate slowly melted in my mouth, I even felt as though my body were melting too, growing softer and more relaxed by the moment.

Chen Fei thought for a moment, then nodded helplessly and slowly walked toward the Medicine Emperor Lord. He looked unwilling, yet there was nothing he could do.

After finishing, the hedgehog’s master really did flop onto the ground and fall asleep again, but that lewd expression on his face remained so alluring even in sleep.

If Liu Bang had truly dared to speak with Qin Shi Huang, he would surely have done so in precisely this servile tone. For although he later became emperor, one fact still could not be changed.

The two held each other tightly, each able to feel the other’s longing in their heart. After a long, long while, they finally let go. Sister Ping looked at Chen Fei with concern, as though she wanted to see whether he had changed during this time—whether he had grown thinner or fatter, whether he had suffered, or whether all had been well.
