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
Murong Haotian's face remained calm, and his words were light. "Oh, Xiao Ye, you care for Xiao Xi too much. I'm just chatting. There is no need for you to talk to me like that. I didn't mean anything by it." Murong Haotian's statement did not seem harmful, so the others wondered if Murong Ye was making a fuss. Murong Qingtian knew Murong Ye. Even though Murong Ye was too protective of Xiao Xi, he would never embarrass Murong Haotian in front of so many people on such an occasion. Murong Qingtian's eyes turned cold as he stared at Murong Haotian. Murong Haotian still looked the same. The father and son were so protective and aggressive that he could say nothing more. Instead, he kept an innocent expression on his face. Meanwhile, the housekeeper and servants brought all the dishes. There was a variety of foods, including animals that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, and swam in the water, that made up the wonderful dinner. Wh
Murong Chengtian was already quite intimidated by Murong Qingtian's aura. He trembled as he rose from his seat and walked over to Murong Qingtian with eyes filled with horror. Once Murong Qingtian flew into a rage, none of them could bear with it and thus, they were all terrified in their hearts. Since he was the man who single-handedly managed the Murong Gang back then, his ways would not be simple. "You want the position of homeowner?" Murong Qingtian almost spat those few words out through the teeth; the stern viciousness of it made Murong Chengtian's heart and liver tremble. "No, no! Chengtian does not dare to!" "In that case, you want to give your son the position of homeowner?" "Why would I? Xiao Qi is still so young, barely a child who is wet behind the ears." "So you mean that it will be alright once he grows up?" "No, no, no. Xiao Qi is naturally stupid and could not shoulder such a responsi
Lu Yang also saw Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu and also felt a little bit shocked. He stepped forward to greet them. "Xiao Xi, Gong Yu, why are you here?" Murong Yunxi looked at Lu Yang with a smile. Many years had passed by, the past had gone with the wind. Lu Yang was just one of her good friends and they seemed to be more comfortable in this way. "Yeah, we came for a movie, but I didn't like it, so we left before the ending!" Subsequently, Murong Yun turned to a woman behind Lu Yang who looked familiar. "Lu Yang, is this your...?" Lu Yang put on a bitter smile. "Oh, you know that I am in a situation of being forced to get married. This is a girl that my big brother introduced to me for a blind date." Lu Yang had nothing to hide because he had no intention to get married to this woman, so he shared his thoughts directly to avoid any misunderstandings, let alone he had no intention to make her his girlfriend. This woman did not rea
Twelve years later. "Luoluo, come to help me!" Lying face down on her big bed, Murong Niannian complained to her good friend through her mobile phone. She was simply so depressed inside. Yan Chuluo was Murong Niannian's best friend, and their friendship was very solid. Although Yan Chuluo was five years older than Murong Niannian, Murong Niannian, a mature girl, did not have any difficulty communicating with her. Their relationship was even more harmonious than those of her peers. "Well, my dear girl, I'm too busy to attend to you now. I even don't have any leisure for myself," replied Yan Chuluo, who was reading the latest military newspaper on a closestool. Yan Chuluo actually could not attend to her talented friend at the moment because she fell in love with a man. More exactly, she fell in love with him in secret only at one glance. "Well, you just went to receive military training. By the way, your grandfathe
S City— The doorbell was ringing outside. After finding that it was a courier delivering a parcel, Gu Yuxuan answered the door and signed for the delivery. After closing the door, Gu Yuxuan leaned against the door, overwhelmed by sadness. The express delivery belonged to Yun Muxi, which should be her admission letter according to the mailing address. However, Yun Muxi had disappeared for almost a month. Gu Yuxuan stood with her back against the door and slowly slid down on the ground as her tears kept falling down. Gu Yuxuan held the parcel and put one hand on her knees, covering her eyes with the other. Her tears streamed down through her fingers, and she cried silently. In fact, she had cried countless times this month. Father Yun had gone to Africa and kept working after arriving there, so that they were out of touch. Neither could she convey the news of Xiao Xi's disappearance to Father Yun, nor did she know how to tell oth
The bottle was in the shape of a gourd and was smooth and delicate. What was the most special part was the handle of the bottle, which was also made of a little gourd. The two gourds were cleverly connected by a vine. It looked like the bigger gourd was holding the small one while the small one wrapped onto the large one. The lip was the root of the vine, showing a natural and smooth combination. The bottle's shape was delicate and refined. Every detail showed unique ingenuity, subtly revealing a sense of tenderness in its mellow lines. The two gourds were like a mother and daughter. The mother showed her infinite love for her daughter, while the daughter relied on her mother. The two were made of crystal-white porcelain, while the vine was lush green with no extra impurities. Duanmu Gongyu opened the lid and extended his nose to smell it. A rich smell of wine rushed to him with a faint fragrance like a kind of flower. Duanmu Gongyu could not tell what it
Duanmu Gongcheng felt somewhat shameless upon seeing Duanmu Gongyu's shock, and he lowered his head to say, "It's my fault! I am too... I hope you don't blame me." Duanmu Gongyu felt happy to remedy the misunderstanding with his brother and nodded while saying, "I don't blame you, Big Brother. I have arranged for my people to deal with those bad guys. You don't have to be worried." Duanmu Gongcheng could not adapt to this change and still felt embarrassed at the moment. He said, "Third Brother, you've just come back, so I came to check on your injury. Since you're fine, I should not bother you. You're so tired after a long journey. Have a rest and I will come to visit you later." Then, Duanmu Gongcheng asked to leave in a hurry. Nanny Wu suddenly felt embarrassed when only Duanmu Gongyu, Yun Muxi, and she were there. She said in a hurry, "My Lord, you should have a rest and I will go to prepare food for you. You must not have e
After pausing for a moment, Duanmu Gongyu stared fixedly at Hei Ye as if he had something to say. Hei Ye was confused by Duanmu Gongyu's actions and wondered if he had a problem, but he dared not to ask Duanmu Gongyu if the fear that he would enrage Duanmu Gongyu, who had been in anger during the past several days. Looking as if he had made up his mind, Duanmu Gongyu cleared his throat and his face blushed as he said with an unnatural expression, "Hmm... it seems... Xiao Xi... is angry at me..." Duanmu Gongyu stuttered as he did not how to express his thoughts, but the long-lasting cold war between Duanmu Gongyu and Yun Muxi made Hei Ye understand Duanmu Gongyu's meanings at once. Hei Ye said to Duanmu Gongyu in embarrassment, "Your Highness, I didn't have any experience in dealing with girls, so, I don't exactly know how to solve this, but... usually, in such a situation, men should take the initiative to coax women. Don't feel shy to do th
Yun Muxi felt at ease enjoying such a peaceful and beautiful moment. Her parents had been busy with their work and left her alone at home since she was a child, and luckily, she had a good friend, Xuanxuan, accompany her; otherwise, she would have left a lonely life. She was quite satisfied that now Duanmu Gongyu accompanied her, took care of her, and loved her. She enjoyed the peaceful moment quietly. ... At sunset, the carriage arrived in Xinyang City. As soon as they entered the city, Duanmu Gongyu sensed something strange. He said to Hei Ye in a cold tone, "Hei Ye, put on your guards." Since Duanmu Gongyu always had a keen instinct, Hei Ye put on his highest guard at Duanmu Gongyu's reminder. Lan Yun surveyed around warily and looked out for everything that would happen. Hei Ye drove the carriage to a tasteful hotel, which was neither the biggest one nor the most luxurious one in the city. The reason why he chose such an in
Before walking long, Yun Muxi came across Duanmu Gongyu. She cast her anger behind her back and said to him happily, "Look, Gong Yu, I found a puppy. Isn't it cute?" Duanmu Gongyu was allergic to animals, especially furry ones. He measured the puppy with a frown and a look of disdain. As if the puppy had sensed Duanmu Gongyu's hostility against it, it barked at him in a wary way. Duanmu Gongyu furrowed his eyebrows even deeply. A long while passed, and he finally replied, "No, not at all. It is not that friendly to me." Yun Muxi defended the puppy hurriedly by saying, "No, it's just too small and afraid of strangers." In Yun Muxi's arms, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu warily once again. Still in a frown, Duanmu Gongyu said in a cold tone, "It does look unfriendly. It warned me to stay away from it." Right then, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu several times more in a warning way. Yun Muxi stroked
The time needed for an incense stick to burn passed by in the blink of an eye. Lan Yun indeed came over carrying two big handfuls of skewers. Since they were in the wilderness and they had never seen how modern-day skewers looked, although the skewers he made were somewhat close, it was still different from the modern-day ones. The wooden sticks were thick, and the meat cubes were also bigger. The shapes were not cut into long shapes as they do in the modern world. Lan Yun's skewers looked more like tanghulu. But Yun Muxi was still amazed that he could deliver such great results so quickly. "Lan Yun, if I bring you to where I came from, you could earn quite a lot just by making lu chuan! You're basically god-speed." Lan Yun felt awkward after hearing it. He had put in so much effort to equip himself with all these skills just for him to go there and make lu chuan? This Miss Yun had such a wild imagination. Hei Ye was very alert
