Former US Vice President and former President Bill Clinton is well aware of his own capabilities.
Back when he was vice president, one of his greatest talents was discussing shared interests with priests he knew.
With such abilities, he might be able to muddle through in Congress and get by, but if he were to actually become president and get things done, that would be utterly ridiculous!
If it weren't for the irreconcilable differences between those tycoons and Trump, who forced him into the presidency like a duck being herded, the United States and he wouldn't be in this predicament today.
Look at America today, where over seventy different gender definitions have emerged, and the daily must-do zero-dollar shopping event is spreading everywhere.
At the same time, because of his high position, many eyes were constantly on him, forcing him to reluctantly give up his original hobbies and even visit that island only a few times.
To make matters worse, he also faced a barrage of attacks from American netizens due to the turmoil in the United States.
Can you blame him? No, you can't!
He could only steer the conflict towards the glass washing area in order to barely maintain the government's dignity.
Now, after his election defeat, he is unpopular everywhere in the United States, and he can't even afford to make fried noodles.
However, to his surprise, his "old friend" Lin Yaodong seemed completely unaware of this and was even eagerly hoping that he could stop Lin Jianguo from returning to China.
No, buddy.
Who is Lin Jianguo? And what role does Bai Deng play?
To ask him to stop Lin Jianguo is utterly absurd, nothing short of delusional!
But there's nothing that can be done about it. Lin Yaodong's entire life was confined to the small city of Jincheng. To put it nicely, he was a local tyrant who dominated a region, but to put it bluntly, he was nothing more than a frog in a well who only saw the sky. It's normal that he didn't understand the intricacies of the situation.
However, even so, if it weren't for Lin Yaodong's insistence on fawning over him, how could Bai Deng have so easily obtained those two Brazilian steaks?
It's still such a high-quality Brazilian steak.
(Refers to only a small number of people)
Thinking of this, Bai Deng involuntarily turned his head, his gaze fixed on the tightly closed door.
"I am so happy here that I forget about beauty."
…
…
The whistleblower loudly proclaimed: "The banner of independence leads to an abyss of unknown depth; my life is like a floating duckweed, my fate uncertain!"
"..."
What is this Heaven-Refining Demon Pig?
After watching the little demon pig relentlessly pursuing immortality with Lin Lulu for quite some time, Mu Liuyun still couldn't suppress her worries and curiosity. She gently stood up from the sofa, carefully took out her phone, and tiptoed to the balcony.
He stopped, took a deep breath to calm his slightly nervous mood, and then quickly dialed Mu Xiaoxi's phone number.
The call was answered almost instantly, shortly after it was dialed.
"A stream?"
Mu Xiaoxi's clear and familiar voice immediately came through the receiver: "Brother, what's wrong?"
The background noise on the other end of the phone was unusually chaotic, seemingly interspersed with various unfamiliar foreign accents. It was obvious that Mu Xiaoxi hadn't left the octagonal cage competition venue yet.
Mu Liuyun gripped her phone tightly, trying to steady her breathing, and asked in a calm but serious tone, "What exactly did you go off to do?"
"Brother, I'm going to participate in a competition. You should be able to see me on TV."
Mu Xiaoxi's answer was completely candid, sounding relaxed and at ease. However, her honesty caused Mu Liuyun's heart to clench, giving rise to a bitter feeling that was hard to describe.
"Yes, I've already seen it."
Mu Liuyun responded in a muffled voice, though his heart was already in turmoil, he still forced himself not to lose control of his emotions.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "But Xiaoxi, have you thought about what will happen to your studies?"
"Brother, you don't need to worry about that. I applied to the school for course exemption a long time ago, so it won't affect my graduation. Don't worry."
Mu Xiaoxi explained nonchalantly, as if it were all a piece of cake for her.
Hearing her sister's nonchalant answer, Mu Liuyun frowned and raised her voice to retort, "Even if you can be exempted from the repair, isn't it too willful of you to make such a decision on your own without even consulting me? Besides, you're a girl, and you're going to compete fiercely with those male contestants on the same stage. How dangerous is that! What if you get injured?"
Mu Liuyun gripped his phone tightly, his heart filled with worry. He heard his sister Mu Xiaoxi's sweet voice, but she seemed completely oblivious to his concern. This only fueled a nameless anger within Mu Liuyun.
"Do you even see me as your older brother anymore?"
Mu Liuyun couldn't help but growl into the phone.
"I wonder who it was that was that was panting and calling out 'Sister~ slow down~' over and over again that night..."
What did you say?
Mu Xiaoxi's voice on the phone suddenly became extremely weak, almost inaudible amidst the surrounding noise and commotion.
Just as Mu Liuyun was wondering what Mu Xiaoxi had whispered, she heard Mu Xiaoxi's soft sigh through the receiver again.
Immediately afterwards, her tone changed abruptly, returning to the same sharp and forceful tone she had used that night.
"Xiaoyun, don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Mu Liuyun was a little stunned by this sudden change and subconsciously responded with a "Huh?"
"Xiaoyun, be a good girl and wait at home. When I get back, I'll make sure you scream all night long, just like that night."
"Wh...what! Mu Xiaoxi, you're getting bolder and bolder!"
Mu Liuyun's face instantly turned bright red. Before she could finish speaking, she heard a cheerful "Bye-bye~" from the other end of the phone, followed by a busy tone.
Mu Liuyun stared blankly at the phone that had already been hung up in her hand, stomping her feet in anger and muttering, "This is truly a rebellion against Heaven!"
At this moment, his face was flushed, and he felt both ashamed and helpless.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Mu Xiaoxi's face was frosty, her eyes were as cold as ice, and she ruthlessly pushed away the microphones that the reporters were vying to hand her.
Then, without even turning her head, she strode straight into the lounge.
As soon as she entered the lounge, the green-haired girl who had been waiting there greeted her with a joyful expression, handed a bottle of water to Mu Xiaoxi, and excitedly exclaimed, "Sister Xi, you are amazing!"
Meanwhile, the blond-haired girl obediently stepped forward and gently massaged Mu Xiaoxi's shoulders, trying to help her relieve fatigue and stress.
Once the surroundings finally quieted down, Mu Xiaoxi closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and her previously tense nerves gradually relaxed. At this moment, her thoughts, like a wild horse, drifted involuntarily into the distance.
In that phone call just now, although Mu Liuyun was a little long-winded, the meticulous care she showed for her was evident in every word.
This scene made Mu Xiaoxi involuntarily recall her childhood.
Back then, she followed Mu Pingxi everywhere, jumping around and getting herself all dirty every time.
Whenever this happened, Mu Liuyun and Mu Jianghe would always appear with worried expressions, earnestly advising the two girls not to be too naughty and adventurous.
Although Jianghe has changed a lot, at least he has found the person.
But what about Sister Pingxi?
Thinking of Mu Pingxi, who had been out of contact with anyone, Mu Xiaoxi felt a deep longing well up in her heart.
This half-sister was not only a childhood playmate for Mu Xiaoxi, but also an important guide on her life path, second only to Mu Liuyun and Mu Lixiong in importance.
Mu Xiaoxi's current astonishing martial arts skills are almost entirely due to Mu Pingxi's teachings.
Unlike many girls, Mu Pingxi has been obsessed with all kinds of novels since childhood, whether it is the world of martial arts or fantasy, they are all her favorites.
Perhaps inspired and influenced by these novels, Mu Pingxi began to study the inexplicable cultivation methods in the novels on her own.
Besides, she often became so engrossed in it that she couldn't extricate herself, and would even shout every day with unwavering conviction, "I want to travel through time!"
Now, much time has passed since then, and I wonder how Sister Pingxi is doing now.
Who knows, she might have actually succeeded in traveling to another world!
When this thought suddenly popped into Mu Xiaoxi's mind, even she couldn't help but feel that it was absurd and ridiculous.
"How could that be..."
