I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 133

Chapter 133: Chapter 96: Empress, Don’t Look Back, I Am Your Majesty!_2

Talking about this matter made him feel frustrated.

The Hundred Flowers Meeting, a grand event that occurs once every three years, and he had no time to attend because of helping Mr. Chen with a case.

As a result, Mr. Chen generously rewarded 3,000 taels, joyfully returned with a beauty, had a night on the painted boat, and an intimate spring evening...

"We’re out here working ourselves to death, and Mr. Chen is sitting on the Flower Boat having a good time; this doesn’t seem quite proper!"

Mr. Chen shook his head and said, "Brother Shangguan, you misunderstand. I am all integrity... cough, filled with righteousness, how could I linger over feminine charms?"

"Misunderstand?"

Shangguan Yunfei put down his teacup and snorted coldly, "It’s already spread all over Tiandu City, Mr. Chen rewarded 3300 taels, being dubbed ’the number one big spender of the Imperial Music Bureau,’ and also splashed ink, writing the words ’Safe In and Out’ in large characters."

"Sir’s calligraphy is still hanging in front of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion!"

"Could someone possibly be impersonating Sir?"

Lin Jingzhu also looked at Mr. Chen with a face full of melancholy.

Mr. Chen remained calm and collected, hands clasped behind his back, and said indifferently, "It seems Brother Shangguan still doesn’t understand my character... Feminine beauty to me is like passing clouds, beyond the skin, nothing but 206 bones; dressed in clothes, they may have 18,000 faces, a gentleman should maintain his purity of thought to nurture the spirit of integrity."

"Do I look like that kind of frivolous person with mind overwhelmed by lust, failing to prioritize?"

Upon hearing this, the two were slightly taken aback.

To see beauty as white bones... Such words would naturally not come from a frivolous and superficial person.

Seeing Mr. Chen’s piercing gaze and full of righteousness, Shangguan Yunfei couldn’t help but waver.

Could there be another hidden story to this matter?

Li Yuan, listening at the side, had a small red face.

If Mr. Chen isn’t lecherous, then there are no lechers in this world...

"This matter should be kept strictly confidential, but you both have been running around so hard for the government’s cases, I truly feel guilty..."

Mr. Chen started speaking hesitantly, paused for a long time, and sighed, "Forget it, what is said here stays here, once you leave this room, do not breathe a word of it."

"Sir, please just say, there’s no harm."

"Rest assured, we’ll keep it sealed tight."

Their curiosity was nearly bursting.

Mr. Chen lowered his voice and spoke softly, "Did you hear about the murder that happened outside of the city on the night of the Hundred Flowers Meeting?"

Lin Jingzhu nodded, "Indeed, the Demon Suppression Department found a charred corpse near Yushu Port, apparently a member of the Gu God Sect, there were also traces of Demon Clan presence..."

Mr. Chen asked again, "The case in Linglan County just concluded, and the Demon Clan appeared one after another, don’t you think this is too coincidental?"

Lin Jingzhu frowned, "Sir means..."

"From the Zhou Family case to the Linglan County disappearance case, I’ve thwarted the Demon Clan’s schemes multiple times; they naturally won’t let things rest and now see me as a thorn in their side."

"On the night of the Hundred Flowers Meeting, I received news that a Demon Clan member appeared outside the city, likely seeking revenge on me!"

"So I spared no expense to take the Flower Boat out of the city in a high-profile manner, all to lure the snake out of its hole!"

"Although the plan was successful, the Demon Clan member was very strong, and even though I cast a huge net, he still managed to escape..."

Upon saying this, Mr. Chen sighed helplessly.

The two looked at each other, shocked.
