"Your husband will dry you off, my wife."
Ning Ye Chen led Luo Ru Ying to sit in front of the dressing table, took a towel, and began to wipe her wet hair.
Luo Ru Ying quietly gazed at herself in the bronze mirror, allowing Ning Ye Chen to gently caress her hair, a faint smile gracing her lips.
Fortunately, the thing she'd been worried about hadn't happened…
She shouldn't have believed that girl Ru Xin from the start…!
She almost misunderstood…
"Husband, if you and Qing You have this kind of relationship, you could have told me earlier."
"I don't mind. You don't need to hide it from me."
Luo Ru Ying said, closing her eyes to enjoy Ning Ye Chen wiping her hair.
If Ning Ye Chen had spoken up earlier, she wouldn't have misunderstood...
"This, this husband understands, wife…"
Ning Ye Chen could only manage a sheepish smile.
Actually, even now, he didn't quite understand what Luo Ru Ying was talking about...
He and Yue Qing You simply didn't have that so-called 'mother-son' relationship…!
But seeing that Luo Ru Ying didn't seem to have any more doubts, he decided not to explain further.
It would be counterproductive to explain more, as that might arouse unnecessary suspicion.
The important thing was that the misunderstanding was cleared up, and his wife was still by his side...
"My wife, your hair is dry now. Why don't you take off your wet clothes for now?"
"I'll help you dry your body as well."
Ning Ye Chen dried Luo Ru Ying's hair and combed it for her. Then, smiling, he prepared to wipe her body.
"No need for that...!"
"I can do it myself!"
Luo Ru Ying's face flushed red, and she quickly declined.
However, Ning Ye Chen had already started, removing her clothes and beginning to wipe her back.
Luo Ru Ying's back was extremely smooth and slender, as white as flawless jade, tinged with a hint of cherry blossom pink.
The scars from when he first saw her injured had also completely healed.
Ning Ye Chen stared, stunned, and couldn't help but reach out and gently caress her delicate, slender back…
Luo Ru Ying immediately arched her body as if she had been electrocuted, her face flushed red, and she cried out softly:
"Husband! No, didn't you say you were just going to wipe my back…!"
"Your hand...!"
"I am wiping your back, my wife."
"Of course, rubbing someone's back requires hands," Ning Ye Chen said shamelessly.
Luo Ru Ying's face flushed red, and she pursed her red lips slightly.
Who uses their hands to grope someone's back and then claims they're just rubbing it!
She had just misunderstood him, and now she didn't know how to react…
"My wife, I'm done."
"Your husband will now rub your front…"
"I'll do the front myself!"
"Don't be shy, my wife. I have no other thoughts. I just want to dry you off quickly so you don't catch a cold!"
"I won't catch a cold. Keep your hands to yourself...!"
The sound of Ning Ye Chen and Luo Ru Ying flirting could be heard from the room, occasionally punctuated by Luo Ru Ying's coy reproaches.
Yue Qing You stood outside with Luo Hong Ye, a pleased smile on her face.
She was relieved to see that the Demon Sovereign and his wife seemed to be getting along better than before.
"Sister Yue, what are Father and Mother doing?"
Luo Hong Ye looked up at Yue Qing You beside her and asked in a soft voice.
"Young miss, the young master is making the madam happy~"
Yue Qing You smiled slightly and squatted down, saying,
"Can Ye Ye go play with Daddy and Mommy now?"
Luo Hong Ye pointed at the room and asked.
"Young Miss, it's not quite suitable right now."
"How about we go play with the young master and the madam later?"
"I'll take the young miss to get something delicious, okay?"
Yue Qing You gently held Luo Hong Ye in her arms, coaxing her softly.
They couldn't let the child disturb the Demon Sovereign and the madam while they were deepening their relationship...
"Okay~"
"Ye Ye wants to eat grilled sausages, grilled rice cakes, and rock sugar water..."
Upon hearing about food, Luo Hong Ye happily listed a whole bunch of delicious snacks.
"Eating too much of those will make your mother angry, you know."
Yue Qing You spoke up.
Luo Hong Ye's little face immediately became troubled.
"Ye Ye doesn't want to make Mother angry..."
"Then Ye Ye will just eat some fruit..."
Watching Luo Hong Ye, who wanted to eat but didn't dare, and was so obedient and sensible, Yue Qing You couldn't help but reveal a smile like an auntie...
Couldn't suppress the corners of my mouth from turning up…
Truly worthy of the Demon Sovereign's child, our little princess of the Demon Realm, so understanding and adorable!
Yue Qing You hugged Luo Hong Ye tightly, speaking softly in a doting tone, like a grandmother whispering in her ear:
"It's alright, Miss likes it, I'll make some for you in secret."
Just as Yue Qing You and Luo Hong Ye were sneaking around in the kitchen, eating things, Ning Ye Chen's voice suddenly sounded from behind them.
"Qing You, Ye Ye, what are you doing?"
Ning Ye Chen, who had already come out of his room, arrived behind Yue Qing You, his hand covering his waist…
That little girl's pinch is still quite painful…
"Daddy~"
Luo Hong Ye quickly stuffed the biscuit in her hand into her mouth, and then eagerly reached out to hug Ning Ye Chen.
Ning Ye Chen casually embraced Luo Hong Ye into his arms, stroking his adorable daughter in his embrace.
Who eats sneakily and stuffs it in right in front of him...
"Oh my, Young Master, you're already done?"
Yue Qing You said with some regret when she saw Ning Ye Chen come out so quickly.
She was both regretful that the Demon Sovereign had come out so quickly, meaning that the things she had hoped for certainly hadn't happened, and also regretful that her short time taking care of the child was over…
"What do you mean, 'done'…"
"I also have something to ask you."
"What did you say to Ru Ying…?"
Ning Ye Chen glared at Yue Qing You and questioned her.
"It seems the madam suspects that the relationship between you and me is too close, so I told the madam that I raised you myself. I have always regarded you as my own child, nothing more than that."
Yue Qing You replied with a smile, calm and unhurried.
Only then did Ning Ye Chen suddenly understand that Luo Ru Ying didn't suspect his and Yue Qing You's true identities.
Instead, she suspected their relationship because it seemed too intimate…!
That was close…
He was almost ready to confess everything himself…
"Although your explanation is good, could you please change the excuse next time…"
After figuring everything out, Ning Ye Chen said helplessly.
Even though Yue Qing You wasn't much older than him in reality, she had already taken on the role of his mother…
Although her nagging and behavior were indeed a bit like it…
On the other side, Luo Ru Ying came out of the room, changed into a clean set of clothes, and adjusted her collar. Her face was still flushed.
Luo Ru Xin, who had been waiting outside the room, had no idea what had just happened…
"Why does it seem like elder sister isn't sad or angry at all…?"
"Looks like elder sister and that man have made up…?"
"Could it really be that she misunderstood?!"
Luo Ru Xin noticed that after Luo Ru Ying had spoken with Yue Qing You, her expression changed, and she no longer seemed worried or sad.
Just now, in the room, they were flirting, which clearly didn't seem like they were breaking up…
Then, it could only mean that she might have really misunderstood…!
Luo Ru Xin turned around, ready to leave quietly, but Luo Ru Ying's angry voice came from behind her.
"Ru Xin!"
"What, what's wrong, Sister...?"
Luo Ru Xin turned her head and smiled sheepishly.
"Come in!"
Luo Ru Ying had somehow appeared behind Luo Ru Xin. Seeing her trying to sneak away, Luo Ru Ying looked angry and silently turned around, returning to the room.
Luo Ru Xin was on tenterhooks, cautiously entering the room.
The next second, cries of pain and begging for mercy came from inside...
"Ah! Sister, it hurts! Don't, don't hit...!
"I was wrong...!"
