Chapter 165 - 142 The Aristocratic Family Visitor__i
Yesterday, during the day, Yelv Nanyan was still feeling somewhat sad, believing that she was now to be a female slave to the North Prince, and she felt incredibly pessimistic about her future.
But after what happened last night, Yelv Nanyan’s pessimism completely dissipated, and at this moment, she only felt an intense shame.
She had trained in martial arts for several decades, yet she was defeated by a boy barely into his teens.
However, if being a so-called female slave only meant being treated this way, then maybe becoming Lu Chen’s female slave wasn’t such a bad thing after all.
But then again, Lu Chen the Grandmaster was definitely not an ordinary Grandmaster.
Although it was Yelv Nanyan’s first time experiencing those things, she was after all the Queen of Sky Wolf King, and was also in her thirties by now, so naturally, she understood what she was supposed to understand.
Even if Lu Chen had the constitution of a Grandmaster, it still seemed impossible for him to be so fierce.
At this moment, Yelv Nanyan tried to move, but was completely devoid of strength, her entire being had turned soft; it was unimaginable that a Ninth Grade martial artist could be so thoroughly ravaged by a Grandmaster.
It could be said that her defeat was absolute.
She lost in the war between the Sky Wolf King tribe and North City, and she lost again in her personal battle with the North Prince.
She was not only defeated in battle, but her heart was also completely conquered by Lu Chen, and Yelv Nanyan was very clear that she might never be able to leave the North Prince from now on.
Human desire is like a boulder rolling down a mountain—once it starts, it’s very hard to stop.
If it had been before, if she hadn’t encountered Lu Chen, she might have always remained disinterested in men.
But Lu Chen had opened the door to a new world for her, and it would be very difficult for her to control herself now, especially whenever she thought of the North Prince, she likely wouldn’t be able to stop thinking about the events of last night.
Thinking this, Yelv Nanyan sighed softly and then asked, “Prince, it’s already daylight, aren’t you going to get up?”
Maintaining this state made Yelv Nanyan feel odd, almost like an animal.
Lu Chen grinned slightly and then said, “I was busy all of last night and didn’t really rest, you can’t possibly be thinking of sending me away now, can you?”
Yelv Nanyan did not say more; fine, let the young man do as he wishes then.
Afterward, Lu Chen held Yelv Nanyan, his big body pillow, and closed his eyes, quickly falling into sleep.
Chu Yuqin was on patrol in the inner courtyard early in the morning, and upon not seeing Lu Chen, she went to the outer courtyard of Yelv Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao’s residence and looked inside.
At this time, Chu Qingli also arrived there.
Seeing Chu Yuqin peering inside continuously, Chu Qingli immediately asked, “Sister, what are you looking at?”
After hearing Chu Qingli’s words, Chu Yuqin coughed and then said, “Hasn’t Chen’er gotten up yet?”
Chu Yuqin didn’t patrol much yesterday; it was mainly Chu Qingli who did the patrolling, however, Chu Yuqin knew that Lu Chen had come to this courtyard. After hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Chu Qingli chuckled and said, “After tossing and turning all night without sleep, how could he be up so early? What do you need him for?”
Last night, Chu Qingli passed by this courtyard several times, and every time, she would hear sounds coming from inside; anyway, Lu Chen had firmly established the reputation of a beast in her heart.
After hearing Chu Qingli’s words, Chu Yuqin said, “I see. Well, let him sleep a while longer then.”
Chu Yuqin did have a matter to discuss with Lu Chen, but it was not a big deal, and Lu Chen’s health was the most important; better let him rest well first.
After looking at the courtyard once more, Chu Yuqin turned around and left.
Chu Qingli also hurried to follow her, leaving behind this courtyard filled with sinful traces.
It was nearly noon by the time Lu Chen left from Yelv Nanyan’s room. As soon as Lu Chen got up, Yelv Nanyan suddenly felt an emptiness in her body, and her heart began to feel an unexpected reluctance.
However, thinking of what transpired yesterday, Yelv Nanyan’s delicate body involuntarily started trembling, and she quickly circulated her inner strength, swiftly calming herself down.
After Lu Chen left, Mu Zixuan had someone send over many nourishing gifts. Yelv Nanyan sat at the table, looking at the full table of nourishing items and felt an indescribable emotion.
She had never heard that women needed such nourishment after engaging in that kind of activity.
But she had to admit, the Queen was indeed treating her very well.
It seemed that the North Prince Mansion wasn’t the dangerous place she had imagined it to be, but she didn’t know whether the North Prince and his Queen would still be so good to her when she got old and lost her beauty.
At the same time.
Lu Chen was in his study, sipping the replenishing porridge personally made by Mu Zixuan, while flipping through the intelligence reports delivered by the Brocade Guard from yesterday.
At that moment, a knocking sound came from outside the door.
Lu Chen took a sip of the porridge, then said, “The door is unlocked, come in.”
The next moment, Chu Yuqin, dressed in a long purple dress, pushed open the door and entered the study.
Lu Chen looked up at the stunning beauty of Chu Yuqin and surprisingly, his heart didn’t stir at all.
This wasn’t surprising; having not slept all night, his energy had been completely drained by Yelv Nanyan.
“Madam Chu, do you need me for something?” he asked.
Chu Yuqin spoke, “Chen’er, the Chu Family sent someone yesterday to look for me.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen paused for a moment.
Ever since he arrived in North City, aside from Chu Qingli, the Chu Family had never sent anyone to him.
And as for Chu Qingli, she wasn’t particularly essential to his safety; if it weren’t for his system, he would have died on his way to North City long ago.
