Chapter 296 Human Females Fleeing in the Beast World 24
Pei Yan waved his hand, signaling his men to make way. "Go on, go on. I hope you don't get yourself into trouble because of this woman."
Back in the car, Helen asked with a worried look, "Helen, is this really okay? Will he let me off so easily?"
Herren gently patted Shen Chumo's head and comforted her, "Don't worry, Chumo. Ayan has been my brother for over ten years. Since he promised me, he won't go back on his word. Besides, with me here, I won't let you get hurt."
He started the car and slowly drove past Pei Yan and his group.
Through the car window, Shen Chumo saw Pei Yan still standing there, his eyes coldly watching the direction they had left.
Shen Chumo curled her lips into a smile. The owner of the fighting arena, huh? She'd remembered that.
Pei Yan watched as He Lun and Shen Chumo drove away, feeling an indescribable sense of unease, as if someone had stolen something very important from him.
He turned and went back into the aircraft, sat down in a chair, closed his eyes, and waved his hand, "Go back."
After Herren's car arrived in El City, the people who were supposed to meet them had been waiting at the city gate for a long time. Amidst the envious glances of passersby, the two boarded a silver-gray flying vehicle and flew towards Herren's home.
Looking down at the bustling city of El through the window of the aircraft, Shen Chumo felt a mix of emotions.
Just a few days ago, she was a low-ranking fugitive in El City, not even daring to leave her house during the day. But now she can sit on a flying vehicle that only one in a thousand orcs can own.
Shen Chumo gave a self-deprecating laugh, then her eyes hardened.
The aircraft flew smoothly and soon landed on the central platform of a building.
Helen took Shen Chumo's hand and walked towards the elevator. The elevator slowly rose, and the numbers kept changing.
The elevator doors opened with a "ding," revealing a spacious and bright corridor. The walls were adorned with exquisite artworks, and the floor was covered with a soft carpet, making it almost impossible to hear footsteps.
A sprightly middle-aged female orc quickly approached and respectfully said, "Young Master, you're back."
Herren nodded slightly. "Aunt Wang, this is Shen Chumo. She will be staying with us from now on. Please make the arrangements."
Wang Ma was slightly taken aback. She looked Shen Chumo up and down, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. "Yes, young master."
"Chu Mo, if you need anything in the future, just tell Wang Ma directly."
Shen Chumo smiled and nodded politely to Wang Ma, "Wang Ma, thank you for your trouble."
Wang Ma smiled back, though a hint of disdain remained in her smile, but her attitude was still gentle: "Miss Shen, you're too kind. It's all I should do."
Shen Chumo could tell from Wang Ma's appearance that she only retained the tiger tail, a characteristic of beastmen, that Wang Ma was of a high rank among the beastmen. The fact that someone like her could only serve as Helen's steward showed just how powerful the Helen family was.
Then Herren led Shen Chumo through the living room, along a corridor, and into a luxurious room.
"Chu Mo, this is where you'll be living from now on. Are you satisfied with it?" Herren said, while keeping an eye on Shen Chu Mo's expression.
The entire room was decorated luxuriously, with the floor paved with a single piece of white marble with faint gold veins, like flowing gold, shimmering with a mesmerizing luster under the lights.
On the other side of the room was a spacious balcony with railings made of golden metal, intricately carved with patterns. Standing on the balcony, one could overlook the bustling cityscape of El City, with towering skyscrapers lining the streets and streets teeming with traffic and people.
The balcony is furnished with several comfortable lounge chairs and a small coffee table, where you can sunbathe, enjoy tea, admire the scenery, and savor a pleasant time in your leisure time.
Shen Chumo nodded. "Alan, thank you. I'm very satisfied."
Herren stroked Shen Chumo's soft, long hair, his eyes full of smiles. "I'm glad you're satisfied. From now on, this will be your safe haven in El City."
If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me. Whether it's making small changes to the room or wanting something else, don't hesitate to ask.
Standing behind her, Wang Ma frowned unhappily when she heard He Lun speak to Shen Chumo, a human, in such a humble manner. She was just a pet, yet she was allowed to stay in the master bedroom. Did she deserve it?
Herren gently took Shen Chumo's hand and said, "That's good. Come on, I'll show you around and tell you about your family."
As he spoke, he led Shen Chumo out of the room and strolled along the corridor, patiently introducing the place as they went.
"This floor mainly consists of guest rooms and some leisure areas, while downstairs there is a gym, a study, and a large garden."
The garden is planted with a variety of rare plants, some of which were transplanted from distant places, and it offers different beautiful scenery in each season.
"If you want to relax on a regular day, taking a walk in the garden is a great option," Herren explained in detail, his eyes revealing his familiarity with and pride in his home.
Shen Chumo listened with great interest, occasionally asking questions about the plants or the purpose of the room, which Herren patiently answered one by one.
Passing by a huge floor-to-ceiling window, Shen Chumo looked out and saw the exotic flowers blooming in the garden below, and couldn't help but stop to admire them. The flowers were of various shapes and sizes, some like bursting fireworks, others like butterflies about to take flight, their colors so vibrant that it was hard to look away.
Wang Ma silently followed behind them, watching He Lun's meticulous care for Shen Chumo, and her dissatisfaction grew stronger.
She had served the Herren family for many years, watched Herren grow up, and always regarded Herren as her own child. Now, seeing Herren so attentive to a human woman, she found it hard to accept.
Shen Chumo took in Wang Ma's expression through the reflective glass and sneered inwardly. It seemed that she had already offended someone in less than an hour since she arrived.
Herren noticed that Shen Chumo's gaze was fixed on the window. Following her gaze, he smiled and said, "These flowers are rare varieties that the family has collected from various places. Some of them even have special abilities."
For example, that blue one over there emits a soft glow under the moonlight, which can help people with insomnia relax and fall asleep peacefully.
Shen Chumo shifted her attention to the flowers and exclaimed, "It's really amazing. I've never seen such beautiful and unique flowers before."
Herren seemed oblivious to the subtle change in Shen Chumo's emotions and continued enthusiastically, "And there's that red one. Its stamens can be used to extract a fragrance, which is a top-grade raw material for making high-end perfumes. I'll bring you a bottle next time; I'm sure you'll love it."
Listening from the side, Wang Ma couldn't help but let out a soft snort. Although the sound wasn't loud, it was particularly jarring in the quiet atmosphere.
