I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon-Chapter 133 - 96: Empress, Don’t Look Back, I Am Your Majesty!_2

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. freёnovelkiss.com

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.

Yushu Port was indeed a necessary route for the Flower Boat, and the timing matched up... It couldn’t be such a coincidence.

So it turned out they really misunderstood Mr. Chen?

"I knew it, Mr. Chen is upright, not indulging in pleasures of the flesh, how could he be enraptured by the land of fireworks?"

Lin Jingzhu cupped his hands, "Using oneself as bait, luring the Demon Clan into a trap, such courage and boldness are truly admirable!"

Shangguan Yunfei showed a shamed expression, "I was rash to speculate and misunderstood Sir..."

Mr. Chen shook his head, smiled, and said, "You’re too kind. It’s thanks to both of you taking on the pressure that I could focus on dealing with the Demon Clan."

"Sir, you need to be even more careful from now on, the Demon Clan might strike again!"

"If I feared death, I wouldn’t be a Hundred Household Officer! If I don’t enter hell, who will?"

Looking at Mr. Chen’s undaunted demeanor, they felt even more respect, as if looking up at a high mountain.

At this moment, Lin Jingzhu hesitated slightly, carefully said, "Mr. Chen, if there are cases related to the Demon Clan next time, could you take us as well?"

Dealing with a hundred trivial cases is still not as satisfying as one major case!

Mr. Chen nodded and said, "Of course, it’s my honor to work with two Divine Catchers."

The two showed joy, feeling the hardships of this period were not in vain!

...

"Take care on your way."

"Sir, please stay."

Mr. Chen stood in front of the Government Office, watching the two leave.

Li Yuan asked softly, "Sir, the two arrest officers have helped the government with so many cases, is it really okay just to let them go like this? Isn’t that a bit improper?"

According to Sir, this would count as taking advantage without giving anything in return...

Mr. Chen said with a smile, "What’s wrong with that? She should be thanking us."

No sooner had he spoken, Lin Jingzhu turned back and waved, "Mr. Chen, thank you."

Li Yuan: "..."

Actually, Mr. Chen knew in his heart that he really owed a big favor this time.

He would naturally have to repay it in the future.

But for now, there were more important things to do...

He scooped up Li Yuan around her waist, hoisted her over his shoulder, and turned to walk briskly toward the inner room.

"Wait, wait a moment, Sir, didn’t you say you wouldn’t indulge in women?"

"That’s correct, I’ve always refrained from such indulgence."

"No, today is the day of the capital inspection, people will come later... Sir, why are you taking up the writing brush? Don’t write on people’s bodies ah ah ah o(╥﹏╥)o..."

...

In the afternoon, at the third quarter of the evening hour.

All the Assistant Officers of the Sky Scale Guard gathered on the training field.

Dong——

A gong sound echoed.
