At Duanmu Gongcheng's command, the soldiers pushed Nany Wu and the others to line up. Each had a soldier standing behind them, like executioners.
But suddenly, a burst of smoke came in from all corners. As Duanmu Gongcheng noticed the abnormality, people began to fall down.
Duanmu Gongcheng shouted. "Be careful, the smoke has poison!"
But before he could finish his words, he begun to feel dizzy. Then he blacked out.
After everyone passed out, Gong Yu, Baili Ziyi, Bei Fangye and Lan Yun came forth from different directions in the darkness.
Gong Yu looked at the people lying down on the ground. His mouth pulled up a little. Then his forefinger and thumb formed a circle and he blew a clear and loud whistle.
Gong Yu stopped after three consecutive whistles.
He turned to look at Baili Ziyi and said, "You can do what you need to do now. I am sorry to have put you into so much trouble!"
Kuang Youzhi went silent for a long time. Gong Yu did not interrupt him and left him to himself. It was not until a long time later that he slowly said, "Maybe I can't go back!" Gong Yu looked at Kuang Youzhi and asked blandly, "The whole point is whether you want to go back or not. It's said that people should eventually return home. Do you want to go back now?" Kuang Youzhi hesitated at that moment; he did not know how to answer the question. He couldn't really ponder on the question before, and he never wanted to think about it. Until then, when Gong Yu asked him so formally, he had to face the situation. Gong Yu obviously saw melancholy and some expectations in Kuang Youzhi's look. He knew that Kuang Youzhi actually missed that place, but he had hesitation because of Baili Ziyi. Kuang Youzhi was not sure whether Baili Zi would like to follow him to that completely strange place, and whether Baili Ziyi would like to leave her homeland.
Kuang Youzhi quickly placed one hand on Murong Yunxi's pulse. He held his breath, being focused and serious while he read her pulse. After a moment, Kuang Youzhi released Murong Yunxi's slender wrist and gave a soft sigh. Gong Yu immediately became nervous. "Master, how is it?" Kuang Youzhi looked up at Gong Yu's anxious expression. Prince Yu had always been cold and cool-headed. To think that there would be moments when he would actually panic. Perhaps that truly reflected the saying that one simply did not really meet the person. "Her condition was caused by the merging of the newly connected nerves with the original nerves and it can only be eased when the fusion is complete." "Didn't you say earlier that you had prepared a painkiller? Give it to her quickly then. She looks like she is feeling very uncomfortable." "The painkiller might not necessarily stop this type of pain. It can merely relieve
Nanny Wu smiled awkwardly. She pretended to remain calm and replied, "Duke, what are you talking about? I cannot understand!" "Oh? You cannot understand? Do you really need me to say it? Nanny Wu, I grew up under your care, so you are like my mother. I really do not want to punish you." Gong Yu's words were neither cold nor warm. One could not see the true emotions in his heart. Thus, Nanny Wu was even more unsure. She scanned everyone before her gaze eventually landed on Murong Yunxi's face. She knew that Murong Yunxi held an important position in Gong Yu's heart. If Murong Yunxi was willing to help her, then Gong Yu would definitely not do anything. Gong Yu, who seemed to have read Nanny Wu's thoughts, looked up at her. "Nanny Wu, do not look at Xiao Xi. It is useless to look at her." When her thoughts were exposed, Nanny Wu looked down helplessly. She was extremely conflicted. Did she really have to speak?
Murong Ye placed his chopsticks down and took a sip. He turned back to look at Murong Yunxi and, after a moment of hesitation, he said, "You just returned to the Murong Family a few months ago. You have taken over some of the affairs of the Murong family now, but you have to know that they do not wield a single bit of the Murong family's power. They only own a small portion of shares. How do you think they will treat you?” "You mean that they will make things difficult for me out of jealousy?" Murong Yunxi frowned slightly. In her heart, she could not help but feel even greater rejection over the New Year's Eve dinner. "They might not make things difficult for you, but they will at least not be very friendly to you." Murong Yunxi instantly felt dejected. She pulled a long face and said bitterly, "To be honest, I don't really want to go to the New Year's Eve dinner. I would rather spend New Year's with Xuanxuan." Murong Ye chuck
Everyone looked at Murong Yunxi. They could already guess that the important announcement that Murong Ye had mentioned was related to her. There were actually not many directors in the Murong Family. Among the directors seated below, other than a few seniors who followed after Murong Qingtian, the rest were only four people: Murong Haotian, Murong Chengtian, Murong Lanxi and Murong Lanxia. They also accounted for a small portion of the distribution of shares in the Murong Family. The few outsiders accounted for a mere total of 10% of the shares. Of course, this seemingly small number of shares could not be considered a small amount outside. It might even be much more than the total number of shares of a huge company. The other 30% was allocated to Murong Haotian and the rest. Murong Haotian and Murong Chengtian accounted for 10% respectively, while Mu Lanxi and Murong Lanxi accounted for 5% respectively. The real big deal was Murong Qingtian, who accounte
A cunning light flashed across Director Xie’s eyes inadvertently before quickly fading away. However, Murong Ye had still caught it sharply. The chilling demeanor of Murong Ye grew stronger. Immediately, he shot a look that cut like a blade at Director Xie. “Director Xie, don’t go too far!” Clearly, Director Xie had seized this opportunity to blackmail Murong Yunxi. As a novice in the business world, Murong Yunxi had done a fairly good job recently, but Director Xie was an experienced old fox. It was easy for anyone with good observation skills to detect his ill intentions. Murong Yunxi, who had a smile on her face, only replied confidently, “Then it’s a deal!” Murong Ye turned around to look at Murong Yunxi, admonishing her in an undertone, “Yunxi, doing this will cost you a lot. It’s quite unfair for you!” Murong Yunxi relaxed a little and gave Murong Ye a reassuring expression, as if she was telling h
The driver's forehead was already full of sweat. His hands were holding the steering wheel tightly. Blue veins stood out on the back of his hands, his fingers had been drained of all color, and his body was very tense. "Big Master, this road... this road is covered in oil. I can't control the direction of the car." It was evening, so it was already dark. If one didn't look carefully, one couldn't really tell the difference on the road. Murong Ye fixed his eyes on the road. Under the illumination of the front lights, he saw something dark on the ground. Murong Ye's eyes became gloomier. Someone had to be plotting against them. It was dark and this mountain road was dangerous. This person was bold indeed. Murong Ye was just thinking, when a loud bang was heard behind his car. They turned, only to discover that Second's car had bumped against the mountain rock. They must suddenly have seen the oil on th
The storm was temporarily over, and tonight's big event was the most important New Year's Eve meal. The incident would certainly not delay such an important event. In the main hall, everyone was sitting around a huge round table, waiting. Dinner was about to start, but there was still one vacant seat left around the table. As the leader of the Murong family, Murong Qingtian raised his eyebrows and stared at Murong Lanxi. "Lanxi, where is Xiao Rui?" Murong Lanxi looked at the vacant seat next to her, feeling slightly embarrassed. Her eldest son was a major source of worry for her. He was always absent from every family reunion. However, he couldn't escape this New Year's Eve dinner, so he had managed to stay invisible in the corner. "Big brother, Xiao Rui must have gone to the bathroom. He'll be back soon." Murong Lanxi stared at her second son, Su Chen, and whispered in his ear, "Didn't I tell you to keep a close eye on your el
