Chapter 36: A Hotel Appearing in the Middle of Nowhere
The five people stared at Jin Churan for a long time: "Let us try. If we can start it, you'll sell us the car."
Though Jin Churan spoke convincingly, they only believed in learning through practical experience.
"You can try, but no damaging it."
Being alone, Jin Churan didn't want to confront them directly and had to compromise.
Seeing Jin Churan didn't resist, the five took turns attempting to start the electric vehicle.
But
Yun Moran had no regrets because the Shen family's intent to rebel was real—eliminating them now prevented future troubles.
Luo Yilian wore an apricot-yellow silk jacket with a gem-studded golden necklace, looking noticeably thinner yet her stunning beauty remained undiminished. The tall man had a broad face, appearing around thirty, dressed in a patterned tussah silk jacket and a hexagonal hat, wearing a constant smile.
Bai Ruoxi glanced at them coldly without saying a word, yet at this moment, she unexpectedly felt an icy chill.
As Wang Chenshi thought this way, her face turned tearful again upon hearing the old village chief's question, pressing the corners of her eyes with a gray handkerchief as she spoke.
How laughable it was, though, that even now, Liu Minghai still pinned his hopes on the so-called Donglin Guards.
Xu Youming understood better than anyone just how terrifying the person in the private room was. Forget this bunch of rotten potatoes and stinky eggs before him—even the mighty Golden Family at the peak of their power had been utterly crushed by that person inside, forced to their knees begging for mercy.
"What?" Lux was stunned. Even Katarina had never met that Gem Knight. Finding him would be harder than reaching the heavens, wouldn't it? In the end, wasn't this all just empty talk?
In their inherent beliefs, Jun Moyue's subordinates thought they could sacrifice their lives for their master, but never considered that when they protected Murong Xiao with their lives, in her heart, they were like family to her. As for family… would Murong Xiao ever fear death?
Old Man Qin Haitong was speaking to himself at this moment. His tone seemed like he was bidding farewell to an old comrade, or perhaps saying goodbye to an entire era.
Throughout the entire process, Jinina kept her head held high, her expression composed like a proud statue. Even when Qian Yuyan presented so-called "evidence" of her shamelessly seducing people at school all day, not a trace of change appeared on her face.
Many times, people yearn to be the center of the world, where all the spotlights shine at their feet—to be the focus of everyone's attention, always bathed in golden light.
Even regarding the matter of her origins, she momentarily felt no more curiosity. Having neither father nor mother, being completely free was for the best.
"I finally understand the kind of pain Yaolong felt when his blood vessels ruptured…" I muttered to myself while using Jiangling to prop myself up from the ground, staggering as I rose.
Shen Ruopu couldn't help but feel inwardly startled when he saw her standing there in her lotus-hued dress, as gentle and dignified as a branch of purple magnolia.
At that moment, she had truly panicked, fearing that the task would be assigned by Wen Chan to Shen Xi, depriving her of yet another chance to make an appearance.
The two of them split up to act separately. Wu Yong resealed the remaining traditional Chinese patent medicines, unsure when they would be opened again.
The clear sunny weather with a gentle breeze carrying faint warmth made staying indoors at the hotel far less comfortable than recording on the pedestrian street. Wearing sportswear after a good night's sleep, having a satisfying lunch at noon, soaking in the hot spring for a while, then changing clothes for filming - everything felt absolutely wonderful.
Ziyuan's death brought no change to Shangri-La, except for Lin Na's quiet sobbing.
Everyone hurriedly helped Li Xiangru into the room to sit down. Qingshi poured a cup of tea, which Li Xiangru drank in one gulp. After downing three consecutive cups, he finally regained some energy.
