In the middle of the night, Yuan Yuanyuan rushed to the tavern to find the proprietress—only to stop in front of the door, cursing herself for being dumb. Why am I here in the middle of the night…?It felt weird. This wasn’t some urgent state secret. Coming like this, all flustered, just made her look…

Before the next issue of the comic was released, Yuan Yuanyuan made a point of observing Faning and Yuan Yingli. The two of them still looked as calm as ever, as if the previous events now drawn in the comic had never happened. At first, Yuan Yuanyuan couldn’t help but suspect she’d read some kind…

Yuan Yuanyuan stared at the comic, momentarily stunned. In her heart she thought: Damn, big bro, you’re unexpectedly blunt… Was that really what you said right before you died? Shouldn’t a proper dramatic death involve lines like “Even in death, I won’t let you go!” or something like that? But instead… Yuan Yuanyuan didn’t even…

Yuan Yuanyuan stared at the comic, clearly startled—but her surprise wasn’t the same as that of regular readers. What she thought was: “They actually found Red Sand Well?” What regular readers thought was: “They’re only finding Red Sand Well now?” This difference made it clear—Yuan Yuanyuan was not an ordinary reader.

The proprietress froze at Yuan Yuanyuan’s words.

That girl’s behavior toward her… it really was the way you treat an elder! It wasn’t just her imagination—it was real! Thinking about it that way,…

The girl looked like she was stuck. Yuan Yuanyuan debated whether or not to help her down. The girl was struggling but didn’t dare move too forcefully, probably afraid of attracting attention. Honestly, if Yuan Yuanyuan hadn’t been cloaking her with illusions, she’d have been exposed long ago. Yuan Yuanyuan vaguely remembered seeing this girl…

Yuan Yuanyuan had been enjoying her role as the red-dressed woman lately—because this time, she was actually playing a woman. Back when she played Yuan, she constantly had to remind herself to act like a guy, even though she was clearly a girl, which always felt a little off. Now that she was playing a…

By now, the plot had progressed to such a degree that in the minds of the readers, everything felt pretty much confirmed. Even though Jiuqiu hadn’t said a word, hadn’t actually confirmed anything, somehow everyone was already absolutely convinced. Readers were raving about how intense the plot was, how deep the waters ran. While they…

[Ning furrowed his brows in his dream.] [A dark figure fell from the sky like a black shooting star.] [He suddenly opened his eyes. The sky was still dark, and stars flickered above.] … Why! Why! Why! Xiao Xi writhed in her seat, grabbing at her scalp as if she were about to rip all…
