Chapter 375: Fast Forward to Holding Grandchildren
“Sis! Time to get up!”
“Mom’s calling you for lunch!”
“The sun’s shining on my butt~”
By noon, sunlight flooded the secondary bedroom, adding a touch of warmth to the previously chilly space.
The girl lay on her side in bed, with her curled-up thighs pressing the pillow beneath her. The blanket wrapped around her snugly, except for a delicate tail peeking out from under the covers.
Hearing the sharp clamoring, the petite heart-shaped tip of her tail gently swayed. The Little Demoness frowned slightly but quickly relaxed, twisting her waist to continue snoozing.
“Sis! Wake up!” Hei Dou shouted, standing by the bed while her cat-like eyes couldn’t help but droop, following the tiny tail’s movements, her eyeballs spinning along with it.
As a feline creature, she couldn’t resist the allure of the lively little “cat teaser.”
She hesitantly reached out, suddenly pressing the tip of the tail down onto the bed.
The sudden stimulus made Ning Chu let out a soft moan, startling Hei Dou into retracting her hand, peeking anxiously at her sister.
“Wow, she’s sleeping so soundly…”
Hei Dou muttered. Usually, her sister was the first to wake up, or at least the one coming home the earliest.
But last night, her sister was playing on her phone when she fell asleep; who knows how late she stayed up.
Woken from her sweet dream, Ning Chu gradually emerged from deep slumber, her brows knitted, lips uttering indistinct sounds, as she pushed off the covers, flipped onto her back, and lifted her pajamas to scratch her belly.
As she moved, Hei Dou could clearly see a pink pattern on her lower abdomen.
The main design was a symmetrical heart shape, with lines extending outward resembling a simple uterus illustration, giving off quite a vibe.
“Is Ning Chu still not up?”
Ning Yuan’s voice came from outside the room as he yawned while entering, only to see Hei Dou suddenly leap onto the bed, hovering over Ning Chu’s belly, her excitement making her tail stick straight.
“???”
“Can’t look! Only my brother-in-law can see!”
“Huh?! Ning Chu’s sleeping without pants?!”
He hurriedly backed out of the room.
The commotion finally allowed Ning Chu to gain the upper hand in her battle against drowsiness. She opened her tired eyes, dazedly staring at the ceiling, her expression a mix of confusion.
“Sis! It’s time to eat!”
Hei Dou kindly pulled the blanket over Ning Chu’s belly.
“Uh-huh… Oh…”
Ning Chu yawned, raising her arms above her head, stretching her body and arching her back in an elongated yawn lasting over ten seconds.
“Why did I sleep so late today?”
“I was reading novels until after four.”
Only then did she feel more awake, rubbing her tired eyes, propping herself up with her arms, and after a few more yawns, she mumbled softly, “Still no energy…”
It wasn’t that she wasn’t awake, she just felt more sluggish compared to the energetic high she usually had, and she felt a bit down.
Ruffling her messy hair, she finally got out of bed and followed Hei Dou out of the room.
In the living room, a strong aroma of meat wafted through the air, and just by smelling it, Ning Chu knew lunch was braised pork.
After washing up, she sat down at the dining table.
Her mother had already eaten a bit, and upon seeing Ning Chu with her disheveled hair looking like a bird’s nest and face marked with imprints from sleep, she frowned: “Don’t you care about your image? What kind of girl looks this sloppy?”
“No one can see me at home~”
“I’m not a person?” Her mother shot her a glare. “Once you’re done eating, go tidy yourself up! This afternoon, I’m taking you to get a haircut.”
“Why cut my hair… I want to grow it out a bit.”
“Just ask the stylist to tidy it—you look awful with this hairstyle.”
Ning Chu ruffled her hair and softly replied, “Got it.”
She didn’t know if it was due to her succubus heritage or if her hair just grew fast normally, but in the past six months, the longest strands reached her shoulders. However, she hadn’t cut it much, so the back hairs would curl and stick to her neck.
Feeling a bit lackluster, even during mealtime, her usual enthusiasm was absent.
Her mind wandered aimlessly, like a troublesome devil whispering to Ning Chu.
Actually, thinking about it, even if it’s not a combination of the noble male lead and the demoness, just between newlyweds, having “it” once a day seems pretty normal, right?
Some even do it two or three times a day.
But her battles with Wen Yang were more intense; while others would level up and finish with one fight, they would be locked in a back-and-forth struggle, leveling up, then fighting again… battling it out fiercely.
Yet unfortunately, each time ended in her defeat—either passing out, or after hastily collecting the spoils, her eyes would close and sleep would come swiftly.
So really, did she need to abstain?
Ning Chu nearly convinced herself of this, but quickly realized that if she didn’t abstain, she wouldn’t be able to afford it.
Damn you, Zhang Shaoqing, with your thick skin!
What nerve you have to stay at Wen Yang’s rental!
“Is Wen Yang not coming over today?” her mother suddenly asked, “I specially cooked extra rice.”
“Just right for stir-fried rice tonight… he’s a bit busy these days.”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Didn’t I just wake up…?”
Her mother rolled her eyes: “You slept like a pig; I could hear Ning Xin calling for you outside and couldn’t wake you.”
“I was up late reading novels.”
Ning Chu lowered her head, chatting on her phone with Wen Yang, when suddenly her eyes lit up, and she picked up her pace while eating.
Major intel! Zhang Shaoqing went out job hunting again!
An excellent chance to steal a march!
No wait, no wait, abstain…
In broad daylight, if by accident they made noise, wouldn’t the whole building know who the culprit was?
Should she get a ball gag for herself?
Ning Chu suddenly realized that after one day of restraint, the next day it was even harder to suppress her inner desires.
“Come with me to get a haircut this afternoon.” Her mother immediately spotted her restlessness.
“Okay…”
Her mother turned to Ning Yuan: “When are you going back to work?”
“Tomorrow. I’ll head back to the rental to rest a bit.” Ning Yuan added a piece of braised pork to Hei Dou’s bowl, then turned to Ning Chu, reminding her, “Don’t forget to call me early before you head to school. I’ll give you a ride.”
Still thinking about Lily~
Ning Chu smiled, eyes narrowing: “Don’t forget to treat me to a meal then.”
“You go send her?”
Her mother looked puzzled, and Ning Chu quickly explained: “My brother is dating someone online~ I’m about to get a sister-in-law~”
“Stop making stuff up; we’re not dating! Where are we at?” Ning Yuan hurriedly argued, his face turning red with embarrassment.
However, her mother ignored Ning Yuan’s protests, looking delighted as she turned to Ning Chu, eagerly asking: “What does that girl look like? Is her personality good? What’s her family like? Does she have any demands for the betrothal gifts?”
“Uh…”
Ning Chu suspected her mother was almost fast forwarding to holding grandchildren.
“She’s my close friend, named Lily, also a demoness…”
“Oh?” The excitement in her mother’s eyes faded, letting out a slight disdainful glance at Ning Yuan’s small stature, shaking her head in resignation, letting out a sigh.
Ning Yuan was nearly unable to hold back his laughter.
