Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 329 Human Females Fleeing in the Beast World 57
Pei Feng stepped forward and respectfully, yet without allowing any refusal, helped Pei Shenqi up.
Pei Shenqi did not resist, but simply lowered his head and let Pei Feng lead him away from the main hall.
His back was hunched and forlorn, as if he had lost all his vitality in an instant.
After Pei Shenqi left, Pei Yan returned to his seat in the main seat, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the hall, his tone carrying an undeniable air of authority: "From this day forward, the Pei family will usher in a new era. I hope everyone can work together to help me revive the Pei family's glory."
The group exchanged glances, then bowed respectfully and said in unison, "We obey the patriarch's command!"
Pei Yan nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
He knew that from this moment on, the Pei family would be completely under his control. And his ambition would not stop there.
...
In the suburbs of El City, Shen Chumo appeared in front of a house. She glanced at the address, took a deep breath, and quickly entered a string of numbers on the keypad.
With a soft "beep", the door lock opened.
She pushed open the door, and the room was dimly lit, with only a table lamp in the corner emitting a faint light.
As soon as she stepped into the house, a tall figure emerged from the shadows.
The man was Helen. He had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were cold. However, the moment he saw Shen Chumo, his eyes softened.
Herren walked up to Shen Chumo, opened his arms and hugged her tightly, buried his head in her neck, and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to firmly engrave her scent in his memory.
His voice was deep and gentle, carrying a hint of longing and worry that he could not hide: "You've finally come... I was so worried that something would happen to you."
Shen Chumo was slightly taken aback by his sudden hug, but she quickly relaxed and gently hugged him back.
Her voice was soft, tinged with weariness and relief: "I'm fine, Herren. The plan is going very well. Pei Yan has taken the bait completely."
Herren released her, cupped her face in his hands, and carefully examined her expression.
His eyes were full of concern, and his tone carried a hint of reproach: "Chu Mo, do you know how dangerous this is? I've known Pei Yan for so long and I know his personality. He's the kind of person who holds grudges. By doing this, you've completely offended him."
“I know the consequences of offending him. But I have no way out, Herren. If I don’t do this, all that awaits me is deeper despair and confinement.”
Shen Chumo turned her head away, her expression sorrowful.
Herren's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately tensed up. "Chu Mo, did Pei Yan do something to you?" His voice rose involuntarily, filled with barely concealed anger and concern.
Shen Chumo lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling, as if she was trying her best to suppress the surging emotions within her.
"I...don't want to say..." Her voice was as soft as a sigh in the wind, carrying endless weariness and sorrow.
Although Shen Chumo didn't say anything, Herren had already guessed everything from her expression.
He felt a surge of anger rising from the depths of his heart, quickly spreading throughout his body, as if every vein in his body was about to be ignited by this furious flame.
His fists were clenched so tightly that the veins on the backs of his hands bulged, his knuckles turned white from the force, and his fingers pressed together, making a cracking sound. The muscles in his face twitched uncontrollably, and his teeth were grinding together.
He squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "Pei Yan! That bastard, I used to consider him a brother."
First, she betrayed him, keeping him trapped in the old house for so many days. That wasn't all; she also secretly took Shen Chumo away and forced herself on her.
How dare Pei Yan treat someone he treats with such care and respect!
Herren's chest heaved violently, veins throbbing on his forehead, each breath heavy with rage. Images of the suffering Shen Chumo might endure flashed through his mind, like sharp thorns piercing his heart.
Herren's eyes were bloodshot as he cupped Shen Chumo's face in his hands.
"Chu Mo, tell me, where did he touch you? Here, or here?"
Herren's fingers pressed against Shen Chumo's delicate lips.
Shen Chumo gently turned her head away, avoiding He Lun's probing gaze, tears welling up in her eyes. "He Lun, don't ask anymore..." Her voice was choked with sobs, filled with endless grievances and sorrow.
Helen felt a wave of dizziness wash over him, his heart aching so much he could barely breathe. He pulled Shen Chumo into a tight embrace, as if trying to create a safe barrier for her with his own arms.
"It's alright, it's alright. I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you again."
He gently patted Shen Chumo's back to comfort her, but the murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger.
"Pei Yan, you mad snake!" Herren roared inwardly, "I, Herren, swear on my life that I will make you pay a terrible price for this, and make you repent in endless pain!"
He held Shen Chumo tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to meld her into his body and give her complete protection.
Shen Chumo leaned against He Lun's chest, a slight smile playing on her lips, but her eyes held no trace of sadness.
The Pei and He families are both large and closely related clans. This would completely shatter their alliance and could even trigger a full-blown conflict between the two families.
Shen Chumo stepped out of He Lun's arms and said softly, "Don't talk about me anymore. Anyway, I've already left that place. Pei Yan is probably overwhelmed with problems right now and doesn't have much time to come looking for me."
"But what about you? How have you been doing at the He family these days?"
Hearing Shen Chumo's question, Herren gave a slight smile. "Don't worry, I'm fine. Those old fogies are just trying to take advantage of the situation to divide up some of my assets."
They're trying to attack us with baseless accusations, but unfortunately, their plan is likely to fail.
"why?"
Herren crossed his arms and said confidently, "Because my grandfather intervened."
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Chumo's eyes. She already knew from the information she bought on the black market that the true head of the He family—He Yan—was He Lun's grandfather.
However, after the battle at Spirit Lake, He Yan was seriously injured and retreated from the limelight, no longer concerning himself with family affairs.
It seems that Herren holds a significant place in He Yan's heart.
Shen Chumo feigned ignorance and asked, "Your grandfather? He's the head of the He family?"
Herren nodded, a smug smile playing on his lips: "That's right, Grandfather has indeed rarely interfered in family affairs these past few years."
But this time, the turmoil within his family forced him to step forward again.
Although he's old, his methods are still ruthless. Those old fogies tried to take advantage of the situation to seize my assets, but my grandfather shut them down with just a few words.
A hint of admiration flashed in Shen Chumo's eyes as she said softly, "Your grandfather is indeed formidable. With him in charge, those old fogies probably won't dare to act rashly anymore."
