Lin Chen suddenly felt a weight on his body, an inexplicable pressure pressing down on his shoulders, and at the same time, a feeling of being spied on surged into his heart.
It was as if he could see right through her.
Fortunately, this feeling came and went quickly.
In just a moment, the feeling of being spied on disappeared.
However, he clearly felt as if he had been branded with some kind of mark.
On a whim, he pulled open the shirt on his chest and saw a small rose-shaped pattern that was slightly shining and warm on his chest.
Lin Chen took a deep breath; his back was already soaked with cold sweat.
This was the first time he had felt such immense pressure since he had transmigrated to this world.
Chapter Twenty-Four: The Gaze of the Gods!
After the series of events that just happened...
Lin Chen's inflated ego, which had just been fueled by acquiring the Undying Grip, shifted to a more cautious mindset.
Having just gained the power to sweep through the eerie forest, I never expected to provoke a legendary god so quickly.
But he didn't expect it.
This Cupid is so vengeful.
Is it really worth remembering a small thing that happened more than two hundred years ago?
He only helped lift the curse, and that bastard even wrote it down in his little notebook.
Is it Lodette, the goddess of love?
Lin Chen clenched his fists, a hint of violence flashing in his dark eyes.
Once he's developed further and is strong enough, he'll see whether this goddess of love, Lodette, is male or female.
If it's a man, just kill him.
Women, of course, shouldn't be wasted like that.
...
Lin Chen returned to his room.
Lilia was fast asleep, lying lazily on the bed, her fair forehead covered in glistening sweat.
He looked exhausted.
As for Veranica, she looked even worse than Lilia, covered in sweat and extremely exhausted, yet she stubbornly refused to fall asleep.
When she saw Lin Chen, she struggled to her feet and went to greet him.
"Mr. Lin Chen..."
Veranica's voice was a little hoarse, seemingly from overusing her voice.
Her beautiful eyes, like pools of water, gazed at Lin Chen, as if she wanted to etch him completely into her heart.
Lin Chen stroked Veranika's hair and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Veranica shook her head and just stared at him.
Seeing Veronica's expression, Lin Chen immediately understood.
He knew he had purified Veranica's curse, and because of this, he had been targeted by the goddess of love, Lodette.
But Veranika didn't know that.
This woman probably thought that after tonight she would become an ugly old woman and only have ten years left to live.
but.
Lin Chen couldn't help but feel touched by this.
He never expected that Veronica would actually go to such lengths for him.
It takes a lot of determination to do that.
Lost in thought.
Veronica tugged at his arm and whispered a few words in his ear.
Then, Veronica pulled him into another room.
"I want...you to spend some time alone with me."
Veronica gazed at Lin Chen with deep affection, her beautiful eyes as clear as water.
After tonight, she will have to leave this place and live alone in the forest.
He only had ten years left to live.
However, she did not regret it.
Only after becoming a woman did she realize that her life of more than two hundred years was not as meaningful as this one day.
She just wanted to enjoy this last bit of time.
Lin Chen naturally wouldn't refuse Veranika's request.
soon.
Little Red Riding Hood had only been asleep for a short while.
I was startled awake by another shaking.
She felt the floor vibrate, and a strange flutter rose in her heart.
......
The sky was just beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.
The small village was completely silent.
Veranica forced herself to regain consciousness.
Even though she felt like she was about to fall asleep at any moment, a tearing pain was still shooting through her body.
But she still gritted her teeth and struggled to get out of bed.
She absolutely would not allow the man she loved to see her at her ugliest.
That would be worse than killing her.
She was completely satisfied yesterday, and she will have plenty of time to reminisce over the next ten years.
"hiss......"
Veronica had barely taken a step when she gasped in pain, her brows furrowing tightly.
In her current state, let alone entering the forest, even leaving the cabin without alerting anyone would be a difficult task.
She endured the pain and went to the dressing mirror. After hesitating for a while, she finally made up her mind and stood in front of the mirror.
Suddenly, a stunningly beautiful and voluptuous figure appeared in the mirror.
Veranika was stunned; she stared incredulously at herself in the mirror.
what's the situation?
Why didn't I turn into an ugly old woman?
Could it be that the curse has failed?
Impossible! That's a curse from the gods!
"I have lifted your curse."
Suddenly, a deep male voice sounded from behind Veranica.
Veronica was startled, turned around, and stared blankly at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen continued, "My ability can help you break the curse from the goddess of love, Lodette."
Veranika was even more shocked; she realized then that what Lin Chen said was true.
The other party even knew the name of Lodette, the goddess of love.
She never revealed it.
Doesn't this mean that the curse on her has been completely lifted?
She won't turn into an ugly old woman anymore, and can stay by Mr. Lin Chen's side forever.
Thinking of this.
Tiny, glistening pearls kept rolling down Veranika's delicate face.
It dripped onto the vast, proud snow-capped mountains.
Then it slid down to the floor.
Chapter Twenty-Five: Little Red Riding Hood: Why Didn't You Take Me With You?
"Little Red Riding Hood, why do you look so listless? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
At the dinner table, Veranika asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen also turned his gaze to Little Red Riding Hood. Just as Veranika had said, Little Red Riding Hood did look rather haggard at this moment, with deep dark circles around her large, watery eyes.
She looked very pitiful.
On the contrary, Veranika and Lilia were standing to the side.
She looked very energetic, and her delicate, fair face was radiant.
It felt as if it had received a full dose of nourishment.
Upon hearing this, Little Red Riding Hood said somewhat flusteredly, "No...no...I just have a little insomnia."
Veronica advised, "Make sure you go to bed early tonight and don't stay up late."
Little Red Riding Hood pursed her red lips, looking at her grandmother's plump body wrapped in animal skin.
The scene from yesterday involuntarily came to mind.
It turns out that Grandma looked like this at other times...
And Miss Lilia.
Why do you all play together, but never include me?
Little Red Riding Hood blushed as she thought of this.
Yet, a faint flutter stirred within me.
She wanted to give it a try too.
Lost in thought.
Little Red Riding Hood unconsciously looked at Mr. Lin Chen, and just as she looked over, she met his gaze.
She was suddenly jolted, a hint of panic flashing in her beautiful eyes, and quickly buried her head to continue eating her baguette.
Lin Chen looked at Little Red Riding Hood in this appearance and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
What's wrong with Little Red Riding Hood? Why is she in such a panic?
Something is wrong!
He stroked his chin for a while, then decided it was time to reap the rewards of Little Red Riding Hood.
Little Red Riding Hood seemed to sense the fleeting gaze upon her, and her delicate body trembled slightly.
......
Back in the room.
Lin Chen suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the next room.
He remembered that the next room seemed to be Little Red Riding Hood's room, so he asked, "What's wrong, Little Red Riding Hood? Is there anything I can help you with?"
"No...it's nothing," Little Red Riding Hood's delicate voice came from next door.
