Ling Ningzhi’s face was a bit hot, feeling like all eyes were on her. Clearly, she was the one forced into this, why did it seem like she had done something wrong?
It’s not right...
Chen Mo didn’t use Contractual Power to order her earlier; she went over and hugged him on her own...
Ling Ningzhi felt her mind in chaos, lips moving, wanting to say something, but Chen Mo had already turned away.
"Dad, Mom, I’m back."
Chen Mo approached the two elders.
"You brat, you nearly scared your mother to death!"
He Yuzhi grabbed his arm, checking him with concern while complaining he was too reckless, Chen Mo responded with a bitter smile, not daring to argue.
Chen Zhuo still showed no expression, got up and left directly.
As he passed by Chen Mo, he paused, raised a hand and patted his shoulder, saying deeply, "Well done."
Chen Mo: "..."
Even when he solved the Zhou Family Case, making great contributions to the Imperial Consort Faction, his father never praised him once.
This time it’s as if the sun has come out from the west.
"It’s rare to have such a lively day, since Mo’er is back, let’s all stay for a simple meal... Afu, go notify the kitchen to prepare." He Yuzhi said.
"Yes."
Chen Fu left eagerly.
Gu Manzhi didn’t plan to stay long originally, but Yu’er immediately accepted, saying sweetly, "Thank you, madam. It’s better to comply than to show disdain."
"..."
Gu Manzhi was a bit helpless.
This girl really had no awareness of being a woman of the dust...
However, she hadn’t seen Chen Mo for a long time, and was reluctant to leave so quickly, she gracefully bowed, "Thank you for your kindness, madam, we shall impose on you."
...
In the dining hall.
The round sandalwood table was filled with delicacies, perfect in color, aroma, and taste.
But compared to the charming girls, the food paled in comparison.
The atmosphere at the dining table was somewhat awkward, except for Shen Zhixia who was focused on eating. The expressions of the other three were a bit uncomfortable, especially since they had once been squeezed into a wardrobe...
After sitting for a while, Chen Zhuo and He Yuzhi found an excuse to leave.
"Zhixia, eat more."
Chen Mo was giving Shen Zhixia more food, but suddenly felt something. He looked down, and saw a small foot in black fishnet stockings from across the table reaching over, gently rubbing against his calf.
No need to guess, the only one bold enough was surely Yu’er.
Yu’er’s cheeks were slightly red, smiling obsessively, her exquisite feet continuously climbing upwards...
Chen Mo naturally wasn’t one to suffer losses, secretly unleashing fiery tentacles, counterattacking along her fishnet stocking wrapped long legs.
"Mm~"
Yu’er let out a soft hum, her eyes almost overflowing with mist.
Sitting nearby, Ling Ningzhi sensed something unusual, a Divine Sense probe made her cheeks quickly flush red, she cursed inwardly.
These two were really outrageous...
Looking at Shen Zhixia who only had eyes for the food, she shook her head helplessly, whispered, "Zhixia, be mindful."
"What treat? Where is it?"
"...Forget it, keep eating..."
"Oh."
Shen Zhixia’s cheeks were puffed up like a hamster.
She really was starving, during the days Chen Mo stayed in the palace, she couldn’t eat or drink, even her bust had grown a bit...
"I’ve eaten enough, take your time everyone..."
Ling Ningzhi really couldn’t watch any longer, just as she was about to get up and leave, her body suddenly stiffened, her eyes widened in disbelief looking at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo’s expression was indifferent, he transmitted, "The master hasn’t finished eating, yet you’re eager to leave the table, don’t you know the rules?"
"..."
Ling Ningzhi’s body trembled slightly, the blush spreading from her snow-white skin like winter plum blossoms blooming in an icy world.
She had just thought that he had grown a conscience, turns out he’s as hateful as ever!
What a big bad guy!
With the fiery tentacles moving deftly like arms, as the temperature gradually increased, Ling Ningzhi’s body trembled even more intensely, her breath became erratic, her gaze slowly losing focus.
"Stop..."
Using the last bit of her reason, she transmitted, "Zhixia is still beside, don’t..."
Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and transmitted, "How should you speak when requesting the master?"
Ling Ningzhi’s face flushed deeply, her chest heaving unevenly, she stammered in transmission, "Master, please stop, Zhi’er can’t take it anymore..."
