Chapter Fifty-Four: The Misunderstanding That Kos's Friend Was Jiang Ke

“I never expected that coming here today would mean saying goodbye to my estate,” Koshi said, glancing at his property with a faint trace of reluctance in his voice.

“Thank you, Mr. Koshi, for your willingness to part with it despite the pain.”

“Ah, it’s my fault for misjudging. I thought you were just joking, so I took a chance, never imagining you actually had the means to buy it.”

He had already made it clear that if Jiang Xian could offer 150,000, he would sell the estate—he was a man who liked to keep his word.

“Thank you, I will continue to work hard,” Hongdou said with a satisfied smile. She was living a fulfilling life now, with clear goals to strive for each day.

Bai Yi thought to himself, wiping away the tears gathering at the corners of his eyes. Forcing a light smile, he spoke with feigned ease.

He immediately gestured with his hand, thoughts surging as a large hand materialized—sacred and pure—striking fiercely toward Prince Jidu.

With a slightly embarrassed cough, Bai Ye quickly flipped the newspaper over, pretending to read it intently.

Su Jue was delighted at once. The battle ahead at the haunted house wasn’t between just anyone—it was Kong Kong and Black Hawk. Their opponents were two haunted houses, each with the word “Handsome” emblazoned on their chests.

Black Blood narrowed his eyes briefly. Then, Yinjun Feng appeared bathed in a halo of light, rainbow hues like neon, a dazzling array of four-colored brilliance.

A monthly budget of 20,000 yuan would cover the operational costs of the agency. Dining, vehicles, and office expenses could be calculated, but electricity costs remained elusive to estimate accurately.

Within moments, over thirty ghost flames had gathered in his mind, but unfortunately, they were only spiritual flames. Aside from devouring these ghost fire seeds, he could not engage in battle.

Qiu Cai responded affirmatively and personally led Zongzheng Yuan down from the pavilion. The child clearly did not want to leave just like that, stealing several glances at Tang Yun without uttering a single word.

The dragon knights on either side began advancing rapidly, while Akshat flew slowly. The dragon knights prepared to encircle Lester, but Lester made no attempt to dodge and instead readied to attack, a flicker of hatred flashing in his eyes.

The third step was to monitor the data from the first two steps in real time, refining and distilling targeted news for intense promotion, amplifying the impact through quality reporting.

Liu Xu pondered, and indeed, since the first time she met Jiang Li, she had never seen him lose his temper. Jiang Li’s nature was gentle and mild, neither hurried nor rash. Perhaps this contest was not of great significance in his heart.

One was elegant, another rough; one composed, another unrestrained. It was quite a spectacle, the audience silent as if the world had suddenly fallen mute, with only the performers on stage tirelessly enacting tales of joy and sorrow.

Yet as long as she remained in charge, there would always be flaws to find! Moreover, the evidence was not fabricated but genuinely existed.

Aimo caught the pillow and smiled, teasing, “Are you throwing this pillow at me to hint that I should sleep with you?” The words themselves were provocative, something Aimo had never done before, which caused Vivi to blush.

Fu Tingyuan stood still watching her for a moment, chuckled softly, sighed with a hint of helplessness, then crouched down beside Luo Nanchu.

Its territory consisted mostly of forests and some plains. The common folk were thus keen hunters, so the lord’s recruited troops were primarily archers. Meanwhile, the “green forest bandits,” who hid in the woods claiming to “rob the rich to aid the poor,” had replaced the usual highwaymen and mountain bandits as the common troubles ordinary people faced.

The castle’s elevator malfunctioned twice because of him. He twisted his foot walking down the stairs, choked while eating, and tripped on the carpet. Such things were impossible before. Jessica suspected he had something on his mind, which explained his absent-mindedness.

Then the two once again plunged into endless mutual insults, looking down on each other. Liu Chong and Gan Ning had already walked ahead.
