Xu Chun wandered around and sneaked back to the estate, only to be caught immediately by Sheng Changtian: "I knew you'd run off again. Even last night's heavy snow couldn't stop you?"

Xu Chun said, "Great, when did he set the date? Tomorrow? Why don't we bring some gifts and pay him a visit." Sheng…- 643.5 K • Completed

Mike glanced at Mo Zimu while Berrick replied lazily, “Go on, Master Seven. What do you need now? Didn’t Ivan satisfy…- 117.3 K • Completed
- No matter how anxious Mo Zimu felt, he could only meet up with Tommy and Tom during the exercise break. The atmosphere on the playground today was unusually tense. Various groups huddled together, whispering amongst themselves, but Mo Zimu ignored them and went straight to his former cellmates. Both Tommy and Tom looked visibly agitated.

- 76 The Chinese men's football team marched grandly into South Korea, only to pack up and return home soon after. Those national football players who contributed plenty of gossip to domestic newspapers and magazines usually didn't lack confidence. But perhaps because it was their first time representing China in the World Cup, they were as nervous as elementary school students taking part in an Olympiad math competition for the first time. As a result, they came back empty-handed. Sometimes,…

Regarding the final verdict, it turned out that Wei Zhao had worried for nothing. After Emperor Changping expressed his willingness to use his private funds to purchase two luxurious mansions in the most scenic area of the capital's suburbs as compensation, the little Crown Prince, without even batting an eyelid, accepted the Emperor's "kind intentions" and "punishment." It was free real estate. Why refuse free stuff? He was used to being labeled a troublemaker anyway; one more stain wouldn't…- 41.2 K • Ongoing
