Chapter 107 – You’re Done Already, Young Master?

“Let me dry your hair for you, my dear.”

Ning Yechen led Luo Ruying to the dressing table, took a towel, and gently dried her damp hair.

Luo Ruying gazed quietly into the bronze mirror, allowing Ning Yechen to caress her hair, a faint smile gracing her lips.

Thankfully, the thing she had been worried about hadn’t happened.

From the beginning, she shouldn’t have believed that girl Ruxin…!

She almost had a misunderstanding…

“Husband, if you and Qingyou have that kind of relationship, it’s okay to tell me earlier.”

“I don’t mind; there’s no need to hide it from me.”

Luo Ruying said, closing her eyes and enjoying Ning Yechen drying her hair.

If Ning Yechen had told her sooner, she wouldn’t have misunderstood…

“I… I understand, my dear…”

Ning Yechen could only force a smile and reply awkwardly.

In truth, even now, he didn’t quite understand what Luo Ruying was talking about…

He and Yue Qingyou didn’t have that so-called “mother-son” relationship at all…!

But seeing that Luo Ruying didn’t seem to have any further suspicions, he decided not to explain any further.

If he explained too much, it might raise unnecessary doubts.

The important thing was that the misunderstanding was cleared up, and his wife was still by his side.

“Wife, your hair is dry now. Why don’t you take off your wet clothes?”

“I’ll help you dry your body too.”

After drying Luo Ruying’s hair and combing it, Ning Yechen smiled and prepared to dry her body as well.

“There’s no need for that…!”

“I can do it myself!”

Luo Ruying’s face flushed, and she quickly declined.

However, Ning Yechen had already started, gently removing her clothes and wiping her back.

Luo Ruying’s back was incredibly smooth and slender, white like flawless jade, with a hint of cherry blossom pink.

The scars from her previous injury had completely healed.

Ning Yechen gazed at her, mesmerized, and couldn’t resist gently stroking her delicate back…

Luo Ruying’s body stiffened as if jolted by electricity. Her face flushed crimson, and she said in a soft voice,

“Husband! Weren’t… weren’t you supposed to be drying my back?!”

“Your hand…!”

“I am drying your back, my dear.”

“Of course, I need to use my hands to dry your back.”

Ning Yechen said shamelessly.

Luo Ruying’s face was flushed, her lips pursed slightly.

Who uses their hands to wander all over someone’s back and still claims they’re just drying them off?!

She had just misunderstood him, so she couldn’t get angry now…

“Alright, my dear, I’m done.”

“Now let me dry your front…”

“I’ll do the front myself!”

“Don’t be shy, wife. I have no other intentions. 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 sounds of Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying’s playful banter drifted from the room, occasionally punctuated by Luo Ruying’s shy scolding.

Yue Qingyou stood outside the door, holding Luo Hongye’s hand, a gratified smile on her face.

Seeing that the relationship between the Demon Lord and Madam seemed to have improved, she felt relieved.

“Sister Yue, what are Daddy and Mommy doing?”

Luo Hongye looked up at Yue Qingyou and asked in a soft voice.

“Little Miss, the Young Master is making Madam happy~”

Yue Qingyou smiled gently and squatted down to speak to her.

“Can Ye Ye go play with Daddy and Mommy now?”

Luo Hongye pointed towards the room and asked.

“Little Miss, it’s not quite the right time~”

“How about we go play with the Young Master and Madam later?”

“I’ll make some delicious treats for you, okay?”

Yue Qingyou gently lifted Luo Hongye into her arms and coaxed her softly.

She couldn’t let the child disturb the Demon Lord and Madam’s intimate moment…

“Okay~”

“Ye Ye wants to eat grilled sausages, grilled rice cakes, and candied fruit…”

Upon hearing about food, Luo Hongye happily listed a bunch of snacks and desserts.

“Eating too much of those will make Madam angry,” Yue Qingyou said.

Luo Hongye’s little face immediately fell.

“Ye Ye doesn’t want to make Mommy angry…”

“Then Ye Ye will just have some fruit…”

Seeing Luo Hongye wanting to eat but holding back, being so obedient and understanding, Yue Qingyou couldn’t help but reveal a doting smile like an aunt…

She couldn’t suppress the corners of her lips from turning up…

Truly worthy of being the Demon Lord’s child, the little princess of the Demon Realm, so sensible and adorable!

Yue Qingyou hugged Luo Hongye tightly and whispered in her ear in a grandmotherly tone, “It’s okay, if the Little Miss likes it, I’ll secretly make it for you.”

Just as Yue Qingyou and Luo Hongye were secretly snacking in the kitchen, Ning Yechen’s voice suddenly sounded from behind.

“Qingyou, Ye Ye, what are you two doing?”

Ning Yechen, who had just come out of the room, walked up behind Yue Qingyou, his hand covering his waist.

His wife’s pinching was quite painful.

“Daddy~”

Luo Hongye quickly stuffed a cookie into her mouth, then eagerly reached out for Ning Yechen.

Ning Yechen smoothly took Luo Hongye into his arms and patted his adorable daughter lovingly.

Who eats snacks so openly in front of others?

“Oh my, Young Master, you’re done already?”

Yue Qingyou, seeing Ning Yechen come out so quickly, couldn’t help but say with a hint of regret.

She was both disappointed that the Demon Lord had finished so soon, indicating that the desired outcome hadn’t happened, and also that her brief time with the child was over…

“What do you mean by ’done already’…?”

“I also have something to ask you.”

“What did you say to Ruying…?”

Ning Yechen glared at Yue Qingyou and asked directly.

“Madam seemed to suspect that the relationship between you and me was too close, so I told her that you were raised by me, and I’ve always seen you as my own child, that’s all.”

Yue Qingyou replied calmly with a smile.

Only then did Ning Yechen suddenly understand. It turned out that Luo Ruying wasn’t suspicious of his and Yue Qingyou’s true identities.

Instead, because their relationship seemed close, she was suspecting a romantic relationship…!

That was a close call…

He was almost ready to confess everything himself…

“Although your explanation was good, please try to come up with a different excuse next time…”

After figuring everything out, Ning Yechen said helplessly.

Yue Qingyou was only a few years older than him, yet she had already assumed the role of his mother…

Although her usual nagging and behavior did resemble that of a mother…

Meanwhile, Luo Ruying emerged from the room, having changed into clean clothes. She adjusted her collar, her face still flushed.

Luo Ruxin, who had been waiting outside, was completely clueless about what had happened…

Why didn’t her sister seem sad or angry at all…?

It seemed like her sister and that man had reconciled…?

Could it be that she had truly misunderstood?!

Luo Ruxin noticed that Luo Ruying’s expression had changed after talking to Yue Qingyou. There was no longer any trace of worry or sadness.

Just now, in the room, she had been flirting and bantering with that man. It clearly didn’t look like they were about to break up…

That could only mean that she might have really misunderstood…!

Luo Ruxin turned around, preparing to sneak away quietly, but Luo Ruying’s angry voice sounded from behind.

“Ruxin!”

“Wh-What’s wrong, Sister…?”

Luo Ruxin turned back and forced a smile.

“Come in!”

Luo Ruying had somehow appeared behind Luo Ruxin. Seeing her trying to sneak away, Luo Ruying looked angry and silently turned back into the room.

Luo Ruxin, feeling apprehensive, carefully walked into the room.

The next second, cries of pain and pleas for mercy echoed from the room.

“Ah! Sister, it hurts! Stop… stop hitting me…!”

“I was wrong…!”
