The package has assigned me way too many objects.

"I'll let you eat until you fall asleep, just this once tonight. If you ask again after this, I'll kick you out. Any problems?"

He had already given up, so how could there still be a chance for things to turn around? Chu Yinan naturally nodded.

"Hmm."

"Then go play first, and come back when you go to sleep." Minagawa Izumi was about to send him away.

But Chu Yinan didn't want the cooked duck to fly away. What if she went out for a stroll and came back to find that the female demon had changed her mind? The final interpretation of this matter was still in her hands, and Chu Yinan had no say in the decision.

Without saying a word, he got up, got out of bed, and turned off the light, leaving not even a sleep light. Then he rushed back and snuggled into her arms.

In the pitch black, Chu Yinan looked at Minagawa Izumi with shining eyes.

"I'm going to sleep now!"

Minagawa Izumi was at her wit's end with this little guy; he was just too clever. She told him to let him chew on it for a while before bed, and now he's already eager to start.

"But I haven't showered yet. It's no use if you want to sleep. You can go to sleep first."

What if I sleep until dawn?

"That's all then, no more waiting after that." The woman shrugged. Did you expect me to save it for your breakfast?

"I'll shower with you, and we'll keep nibbling until we go to bed!"

"You little devil, what are you saying!" Minagawa Izumi scolded, pretending to be annoyed as she told him to lie down on the bed and not to make any more noise, before getting up to take a shower.

Sometimes time just seems to pass incredibly slowly. Chu Yinan watched the time tick by on his phone, growing increasingly impatient. Several times he ran to her bathroom door and knocked, asking if she was done yet.

Minagawa Izumi usually takes baths at a fixed time depending on her mood, but most of the time she will add a soaking bath to relax. She also pays special attention to the cleanliness of her body and will wash for a while before getting into the bathtub.

Finally, Chu Yinan's urging worked. Minagawa Izumi came out without taking a bath tonight, and before she could even get dressed, Chu Yinan rushed into the bathroom.

"Be careful, I'm not dressed yet. What if you fall while running so fast?"

"Will not."

The woman didn't even fasten her robe properly; she simply draped it over her shoulders before carrying the boy out of the bathroom and lying down in bed.

The room was pitch black. In the darkness, she could feel the child lying on her body, looking for food like a baby. The child was also very naughty, fiddling with the bottle from side to side, and sometimes the little hand would exert a little force to grip the bottle tightly.

Minagawa Izumi suddenly let out a soft "hmm~", and to cover up her embarrassment, she playfully hit Xiao Chu Nan and scolded him:

"Go to sleep, why are you making such a racket of swallowing saliva all over the house?"

She thought to herself with a strange feeling: This is really the same voice he used to have when he was a child. And when he was a child, he would gnaw harder and harder because he couldn't get enough to eat. Luckily, he didn't have any teeth back then.

"Then I'll try not to make a sound!" Chu Yinan promised, before even finishing his sentence, he immediately threw himself into the rare pre-sleep meal he was in tonight.

However, it wasn't that Minagawa Izumi was being pretentious. Soon she wanted to grab the little brat's ear and ask him if he only used his tongue to make prprpr sounds when he ate, even a baby wouldn't do that.

...It's so itchy!

Fifteen minutes later, Minagawa Izumi pinched the back of his neck and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"I'm not sleepy yet, so I won't go to sleep."

Since she had promised, Minagawa Izumi couldn't say anything to him and let him be for the time being, figuring he'd get sleepy eventually. However, she had underestimated Chu Yinan's stamina; it was 11 o'clock, and he was still enjoying himself immensely.

"It's almost midnight, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Just for tonight, I'll go to bed a little later. I'm already sleepy and will fall asleep soon."

Minagawa Izumi knew he wanted to sleep because she heard him yawn. She felt a little helpless because she had been kept awake by his kisses... Minagawa Izumi closed her eyes and stayed up with him until midnight. The clock at the Lefie family's house rang at midnight. Chu Yinan yawned again and then continued his late-night homework.

The woman eventually gave in to him: "Sweetie~ Go to sleep, I'll give you another one tomorrow night."

Chu Yinan immediately perked up a bit, but things were not looking good now. Although his big head was sleepy, there were clearly other heads that were very energetic (pointing to his fingers).

"I'm not feeling well, I can't sleep." He rubbed against Minagawa Izumi's thigh.

"Why have you become so disobedient?" The woman was so angry that she slapped his bottom, picked him up, and carried him to the bathroom.

Chapter 70 Aunt Liu is back!

When you have something to look forward to tomorrow, you'll wake up exceptionally early.

Although he went to bed later than expected, Chu Yinan actually woke up at around 4 a.m.!

However, his sleeping posture was a bit strange today. He was sleeping with his head facing Minagawa Izumi's thigh. Chu Yinan felt that this was more likely a measure she took to prevent someone from sneaking kisses on her in the middle of the night. How cruel!

He felt no regret, because usually when he woke up, even if he had left a hickey on Minagawa Izumi's breasts, he had no recollection of it at all, and even felt like he had been slandered! But last night he did have a definite memory of it.

Great, I feel like I got my money's worth even after all those times I got scolded.

"Should we sneak a few bites while the female monster is still asleep?"

Chu Yinan straightened up and lay down next to the woman to observe her sleeping condition. The female demon was a light sleeper, thanks to her health-preserving lifestyle, which kept her energetic most of the time. However, she was probably really tired last night, as she showed no signs of waking up at all.

Minagawa Izumi lay flat on her back, her sleeping posture not changing much, like a night-blooming cereus in the dead of night, quiet and dazzling. But the stunning beauty of the night-blooming cereus is fleeting, while her beauty is everlasting, elegant and refined, her lips red without lipstick. It was the season of frost and snow, and the white snow by the window made her jade-like skin shine, crystal clear as jade.

Chu Yinan quickly gave up his thieving desire; since the female demon had already agreed to let him gnaw on her, he figured he shouldn't steal her food.

Chu Yinan could now offer some explanation for the single red dot on the milky pudding. Based on his extensive research of erotic images and his observations of those around him, he believed that a single red dot on the tip of a snowdrift could indeed be either beautiful or not.

The rosy blush shouldn't be too scattered; it should be concentrated in one spot. Some people with pudding-sized rosy cheeks have a blush that looks like a pancake spread out, the color spreading out and obscuring their natural whiteness. Then there's the color itself. Selecting grapes is a delicate task. Some people prefer blackcurrants that are as black as ink, which Chu Yinan doesn't quite understand. He prefers a rosy, translucent color, a lighter shade, but one that is beautifully clear and lustrous.

He lay by the Minagawa spring, pondering aimlessly for a long time, until dawn broke. The woman woke up from the winter night and saw Xiao Chunan squatting beside her, watching over her.

"When did you wake up?"

"It was still before dawn, which was quite early, but let me make it clear beforehand that I didn't sneak any food after I woke up."

This kid even made a public statement; he's probably been keeping an eye on things all along.

Thinking back to last night, Minagawa Izumi was still angry. The little guy was starting to hold back. He had told him not to hold back, but he held it in to prolong the time. And now that it was almost over, the little guy kept asking for more!

She sat up from the warm bed, patted her thighs, and with a stern, mature face that resembled that of a loving mother, said, "Come here, lie down. I didn't discipline you last night because it was late. Instead of sleeping, you're always thinking about being naughty!"

Chu Yinan was someone who responded to both gentle persuasion and force. Knowing full well that Minagawa Izumi wouldn't really hit him hard, but rather to show her attitude, he immediately lay down on her lap, intending to continue next time.

While being beaten, Chu Yinan took out his phone to browse videos and happened to come across a mukbang video. He was eating grilled lamb skewers, and just by looking at the flames rising from the screen, he could almost smell the aroma.

"Female monster, I want to eat grilled lamb skewers today, like the ones in the video."

Minagawa Izumi was about to ask, "Just eat it, why are you asking her why?" But when she glanced at the unprocessed lamb penis in the video, she remembered how the little one had looked after drinking the lamb soup.

I instinctively wanted to say no, but the words caught in my throat, so I changed my mind and asked:

"Do you really want to eat it, or are you thinking of some other wicked idea?"

"I really want to eat it, but my family hardly ever eats grilled or fried food. When we fry chicken cutlets, it's always wet-fried, so it doesn't have that burnt aroma."

Minagawa Izumi looked at him and asked, "What if you can't sleep after eating?"

She knew what the little brat meant by asking that question. Minagawa Izumi didn't cook fried or grilled dishes; the ones she knew were all delicate and healthy. If Xiao Chu Nan wanted to eat them, he could only ask the maid to buy mutton and cook them. So, asking her if he could eat them meant he was just cleaning up the mess after eating the mutton that night.

"Can you help me?" Chu Yinan dared to ask directly now, the courage she gained from asking to eat bear last night.

"I knew it would be like this." Minagawa Izumi sighed and shook his head slightly.

She can no longer say things like "there won't be a next time." Every time she says it, it's as if she never said it, and she contradicts herself within a few days.

Minagawa Izumi began to reflect. Her current behavior seemed to be repeating the "incomprehensible" things she had once "disliked" and experienced from her elders. Could it be that by learning her elders' skills, she had also picked up their "absurdity"?

Even now, she's doing those rather inappropriate things with the children she watched grow up, but she no longer feels the same aversion she once did... How could I be like this?

"Don't hold it in tonight. Then lie back on my lap and I'll continue spanking you. I haven't even said it's over yet, what are you doing getting up?"

"Go ahead and fight."

Having received the promise, Chu Yinan was overjoyed even when he was beaten.

That means tonight's bedtime routine will be quite varied, with something to chew on and something to detox.

......

After a long day spent watching the clock tick by, Chu Yinan finally welcomed the long-awaited night.

It's time for adults' nightlife to begin—time to prepare for bed!

In the similarly dark night, Chu Yinan climbed into Minagawa Izumi's arms.

"If I don't go to sleep tonight, can we continue tomorrow?" He was pushing his luck.

"No." The woman stroked the back of the boy's head, refusing him ruthlessly.

This time, Chu Yinan didn't insist. Although he had a greedy side, he still felt it wasn't right to ask again later.

But only ten minutes after she got into bed, Heinrich and the others returned.

It's only nine o'clock at night, so they're not particularly late getting back. As soon as Yan Liu returned, her first priority was naturally to look for her child, whom she hadn't seen for several days.

Not seeing him in the living room, Yan Liu called out, "Where is Xiao Chunan? Aunt Liu is back! Come out and let Aunt Liu give you a kiss!"

A look of panic appeared on Minagawa Izumi's face. She hadn't expected Yanliu and the others to come back in the evening. No, she should have expected it. They had agreed to come back today, but she had completely forgotten!

Yan Liu is not the kind of woman who would let her son continue sleeping just because she hears he's asleep. If she hasn't seen him for a few days, she'll definitely take him away. She'd rather let him wake up for a while than not hold him in her arms and coax him to continue sleeping. She's ridiculously possessive of her son.

"Little Chunan, get up first, your Aunt Liu is back."

Chu Yinan was seriously injured, and tomorrow he won't be able to play anymore. But today he only played for ten minutes, and the female mentor segment was also canceled!

"But......"

Minagawa Izumi gritted her teeth: "Come find me during your afternoon nap tomorrow."

Chapter 71 I hope you have the awareness to be a gift

Chu Yinan readily agreed and went to find Aunt Liu. All things considered, he actually gained ten minutes from today's events.

No, it seems I've been tricked after all!

The nap time isn't that long. If lunch is served early, it won't be until noon. Then it takes about half an hour to rest before preparing for the nap. He gets up around 2 pm. In reality, he doesn't make up for the lost time at all; in fact, he loses it!

Chu Yinan exclaimed that he had been tricked, but unfortunately he had already left the female monster's room, and it was no use going back to reason with her now.

Yan Liu had already arrived. She had traveled for several hours to get back, and her beautiful face still showed signs of fatigue, but she was overjoyed to see the little boy and immediately came over to hug him.

"What were you doing just now? Why didn't you answer when I called you?"

"I was just getting ready to go to sleep."

Yan Liu thought she had misread the time. After checking several times, she asked in surprise, "Why are you sleeping so early? Have you changed your ways? It's only a few o'clock. Didn't you used to stick with Yu Tang and watch dramas until almost 11 o'clock before going to sleep?"
