Chapter 118: Chapter 89: Adults Can’t Do That! Xu Qingyi’s Panties! (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Fiancée?

Li Yuan suddenly realized.

She had heard about the marriage agreement between the Chen Family and the Shen Family, and it seemed there had been talk of canceling it not long ago... But judging by Shen Zhixia’s demeanor, it appeared that the marriage was still on.

Having just had that ridiculous encounter with Chen Mo, Li Yuan couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty when suddenly faced with his "legitimate wife."

"Li Yuan, General of the Ding Fire Department, is honored to meet Miss Shen."

Shen Zhixia’s gaze held a hint of curiosity.

As an Innate True Martial Body with extremely sharp Spiritual Sense, she could tell that the woman before her emitted a strong aura with a sharp Sword Intent barely concealing itself - she was at least a Martial Artist on the same level as herself.

However, she made no attempts to probe further, merely nodding slightly in greeting before retracting her hand.

"Brother Chen Mo sure has some capable people by his side," said Shen Zhixia with a light smile.

Chen Mo nodded, "General Li is quite capable, indeed. It’s thanks to her assistance underneath me that I’m able to work so comfortably."

?

Li Yuan felt there was something not quite right with that remark, but couldn’t put her finger on what it was.

"By the way, Lord Shen has just been here about the case, thank you for your hard work, Chong’er sister."

Chen Mo began to deploy his Ultimate Water Manipulation technique.

Hearing this childhood nickname, Shen Zhixia’s cheeks turned pink, and she shook her head, "I couldn’t really help much, but I do hope Brother Chen Mo won’t worry too much about it. If you have time, I would really like you to spend more time with me... and with mother."

"Of course," Chen Mo said with a smile.

Shen Zhixia glanced at Li Yuan, hesitated for a moment, then slowly leaned down, her soft voice whispering into his ear:

"Brother, my underwear has been a bit tight recently, could you send me a few more pieces?"

(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡

Her delicate cheeks flushed with a shade pinker than white, her moist eyes filled with embarrassment.

?!

Chen Mo was taken aback for a moment.

That’s not what you said at home just now...

Nevertheless, it was not a request he would refuse. Stroking his chin, he said, "Sure... but to get the right fit, you’d need to take proper measurements."

Shen Zhixia was well aware of his ulterior motive and cutely rolled her eyes at him, "Don’t worry about that, I’ll have the owner of Jinxiu Workshop take care of the measurements."

Watching the two of them acting so close, Li Yuan’s slender fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, feeling a bit out of sorts.

Suddenly—

"Uh!"

Li Yuan stiffened, her cheeks flushed red, and she looked at Chen Mo in disbelief.

He was way too bold, wasn’t he?!

How dare he misbehave in front of his fiancée?

Her body trembled slightly but she dared not move too much, afraid that any hint would be noticed.

Fortunately, the desk obstructed the view and Shen Zhixia had not discovered Chen Mo’s "hidden hand under the table."

"I should get going then. I have to accompany mother to the shops this afternoon."

Shen Zhixia looked up at Li Yuan and smiled, "Although Brother Chen Mo is very capable, his nature is carefree, and he dislikes constraints. The work in the department will still need your attentive efforts, General Li."

Li Yuan, with her face still red, stuttered, "Yes, of course, this... this is my duty."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Shen Zhixia nodded slightly and left.

"Absolutely not! You have to wait even if you’re eager, you should go to a restaurant first, how can you do this here...wait, wait a bit, don’t use the underwear to gag me...uh!♡o(╥﹏╥)o♡ wuwuwu..."

...

...

...

Ultimate Water Manipulation was not only a technical skill but also physically demanding.

After appeasing Li Yuan, Chen Mo left the government office, mounted his Crimson Steed and headed towards the East Suburb.

He was still thinking about that Demon Bone. Since the case had already been outsourced, and having nothing better to do, he decided to check out the Demon Suppression Department.

The Demon Suppression Department wasn’t located within the city but situated in the sparsely populated East Suburb. It took almost half an hour just to get there.

...

East Suburb.

The layers of ash-gray tiles closely arranged like fish scales, with the flying eaves soaring like the wings of a bird.

The tall walls stood majestic, hiding courtyards deep within, with vines crawling over the walls adding an air of secluded mystery.

Chen Mo arrived in front of the vermilion gates and knocked on the door knocker.

After a while, no one answered.

He pushed the door and it creaked open; it wasn’t locked at all.

He entered through the gate.

Inside the courtyard, the ground was paved with blue stone tiles, and in the center stood a huge copper furnace with fierce flames raging inside that roared intensely, its purpose unknown.

A disheveled man with an explosive hairdo squatted in front of the furnace, peering inside through the viewing window.
