I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291: Chapter 137: The Fairy’s Desire! Brother, am I beautiful? _2

"Chen Mo... what kind of person is he?"

Ling Ningzhi was somewhat confused.

She walked aimlessly, the noise gradually fading, and the environment became increasingly quiet. When she looked up, she realized she had unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the Chen Mansion.

Looking at the open door, she hesitated for a moment, then walked in as if driven by an invisible force.

In contrast to the external tumult, the atmosphere inside the Chen Mansion, at the center of discussions, was quite somber.

Upon entering the main hall, she saw Chen Zhuo sitting in the main seat, his usually sharp eyes unfocused, holding a tea cup with the tea long gone cold, yet he was oblivious.

He Yuzhi was beside him, her face also carrying an indelible worry.

Shen Zhixia was curled up on a chair, her eyes bloodshot, clearly having just cried.

"Qingxuan is here."

Seeing Ling Ningzhi walk in, He Yuzhi forced a smile.

"Mr. Chen, Madam..."

Ling Ningzhi had just started to greet them when Shen Zhixia ran up to her, hugging her soft waist, burying her face deeply into her ample bosom, and muffledly said: "Daoist, it’s been three days, brother still hasn’t come back. Do you think something might have happened to him?"

The night after the martial arts examination ended, a message was sent from the palace saying Chen Mo was in no life-threatening danger.

But what if he lost an arm or a leg, or had some hidden injuries?

After all, she had witnessed Chen Mo’s terrible condition with her own eyes, his spine broken, and if he were an ordinary martial artist, he might be paralyzed if not dead...

Ling Ningzhi shook her head and said: "Hundred Households Chen has Vitality Essence protecting him, plus the techniques of the palace’s imperial physicians; he will surely be safe... Even if something does go wrong, the palace would definitely send a message immediately."

Shen Zhixia understood all these truths, yet as long as she did not see Chen Mo, her heart could not be at ease.

At this moment, Chen Fu walked in and said: "Master, Madam, those two young ladies have come again to inquire about the young master."

He Yuzhi sighed and said, "Let them come in."

"Yes."

Chen Fu responded and retreated.

Soon, two veiled ladies walked in. After paying their respects, they stood silently in the corner.

Since hearing about Chen Mo’s severe injuries during the martial arts examination, Gu Manzhi and Yu’er had come to the Chen Mansion every day to inquire about him. Conscious of their status, they would wait in the sedan chair until nightfall, departing only when the curfew began.

Looking at the women in front of her, all of different styles but each stunningly beautiful, He Yuzhi couldn’t help but shake her head.

This brat, causing so many girls to worry about him.

If he saw this scene, he would definitely feel quite proud...

Suddenly, He Yuzhi sensed something, abruptly looked up toward the door, a trace of a smile flashing in her eyes.

Immediately afterward, a familiar voice echoed:

"What’s going on here? Why does everyone look so gloomy?"

?

Everyone turned their heads at the sound, seeing a tall figure walk into the hall, dressed in white, looking clean and elegant, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
