Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

Afu nodded obediently and said—

"understood."

"Let's talk about it another time."

Dong Yi said lazily.

Chen Ming shook his head. "Alright, let's go over there and cook now. I bet Mom and Dad will be pretty confused if they suddenly can't see us."

Chen Ming reached out and took the large pile of groceries that Lucifer had bought; for such a large family, they had bought quite a lot.

He led everyone to the door and knocked.

dong dong dong...

"coming."

Ok?

The voice startled both Chen Ming and the landlady.

Click, the door opened.

Qin Hui's cheerful smile froze the moment she saw Chen Ming.

Chapter 243 Little Wife Qin Hui

Almost no one expected to see Qin Hui at this time.

The landlady opened her mouth, looking at her older sister.

Why do you look so excited?

It seems like I've never seen Qin Hui so happy before. She always puts on a perfect smile to disguise herself, so it's really rare to see her like this.

And what are you doing?

Wearing a plaid apron, holding a spatula, and with one leg almost raised in excitement, what's going on with her looking like a silly wife?

No, sister, your public image is almost... well, the image of a mature, sophisticated woman has been shattered to pieces.

The landlady twitched her lips.

The older sister peeked out from behind Chen Ming, blinked, and said with a puzzled look—

"Miss Qin Hui?"

Lucifer tilted her head slightly; she hadn't met Qin Hui yet, and Dong Yi and A Fu were the same, both looking at their own men.

Chen Ming was also completely bewildered and said—

"You... you've arrived? What are you doing here...?"

To be honest, he had expected Qin Hui to come and confront him after bringing that cute little girl out to play, but he never imagined it would turn out like this...

You seem to be having a lot of fun.

Wearing an apron and holding a spatula... is she cooking for her family?

Ok?

What's going on? Don't they treat us like guests? They've only been gone a short while, why are they already cooking for the family?

It really looks like a young wife cooking for her parents-in-law...

Everyone looked at Qin Hui, unsure of what to say, and fell silent.

Qin Hui seemed frozen, maintaining that posture, unsure how to suppress the smile on her face, while cold sweat poured down her back.

It's over, it's all over!

He caught me red-handed, and I looked so stupid... Wasn't I just handing him leverage? How could I ever hold my head up in front of him again?

Qin Hui had a bad feeling.

Hey?

How strange. What was I originally planning to do here? Um... get my sister back from this lolicon?

But gradually, after chatting with her parents about everyday things, the feeling of being cared for made her reluctant to reveal everything...

Then her mother said it was time to cook, and she offered to help. The family chatted and laughed as they prepared dinner... This was a time that Qin Hui longed for.

Then I found myself involuntarily drawn into it, as if I really were this family's daughter-in-law...

Help with housework and wait for others to come home for dinner.

I didn't notice anything amiss.

I'm completely out of my mind.

Then I heard a knock on the door, and I happily ran to open it...

It took me a moment to realize who he was when I saw his face.

Oh my god, what did I do?!

Qin Hui's face flushed red, and looking at his face, which seemed to be steaming, her expression instantly collapsed, and she became as helpless as a little girl—

"This, this...that..."

"Huihui, who's here?"

"Mom, it's Chen Ming and the others."

Qin Hui's mind was a mess, but she still subconsciously answered her mother's question first, behaving exactly like a dutiful daughter-in-law.

only……

Chen Ming and everyone else's expressions became quite interesting. The landlady even covered her face with her hands. Sure enough, you, sister, were bound to mess things up because you're such a clueless person when it comes to relationships. I told you so!

Chen Ming opened his mouth, looked at the dumbfounded Qin Hui, and said—

"mom?"

He simply tilted his head and asked a single word.

Qin Huicai realized that she had just put his noodles on the table and called his mother "Mom".

"me……"

Qin Hui's cheeks flushed even redder, almost bringing tears to her eyes. She quickly waved her hand and said—

"No, no, no, that's not it..."

"What is it?"

Chen Ming realized what was happening, crossed his arms, and looked at the "mature woman" who was always arguing with him with amusement.

That's really funny.

"Ugh... Ahhhhh..."

Qin Hui covered her face and squatted down. Her mind was completely blank. All the scheming and the armed forces had turned to ashes.

They can no longer think.

Mom was picking vegetables in the kitchen. Hearing the noise outside, she poked her head out and tilted it to look at the door.

He said—

"What are you doing? Come help us now that you're back..."

She came out of the kitchen and saw Qin Hui squatting down with her face covered. Chen Ming looked on with amusement and even tapped her on the head.

"Ok?"

His mother raised an eyebrow, walked over, and slapped his hand.

"Wow!"

He winced in pain, pulled his hand back, looked at his mother, blinked, and said—

"mom?"

"Don't bully Huihui."

"Ok?"

What's going on with this? Why are they being so intimate? Chen Ming was a little dazed after being hit, and seeing that things were getting out of hand, the people around him all laughed and left.

The young women all went to the kitchen to see if there was anything to do, while the landlady hid on the sofa, peeking out to observe the situation.

Mom put her hands on her hips and said—

"I've heard that you always bully Huihui. You're a girl, and you won't even drive her around, but you make her give you rides. This time too, you made her drive all night back by herself, without showing her any concern. Is this how you take responsibility for your wife?"

"Huh? Huh? But..."

Chen Ming tried to explain.

But Mom wouldn't listen at all, and continued—

"But what? What's the 'but'? You're always so selfish. What's wrong with giving in to others? Even Huihui doesn't mind that you're such a womanizer. You don't even know how to treat her better."

"I, I'm not..."

Qin Hui also tried to defend herself, raising her head, but she was so ashamed that she couldn't even finish her sentence.

Her mother took her hand and said—

"You don't need to be afraid of him. With me here, he won't dare to bully you... Do you hear me? Don't let me hear Huihui say that you bullied her again, understand?"

"I……"

"Ok?"

"..."

Chen Ming saw his mother glaring at him. Although she was short, she still had some intimidating presence. He shrank back and decided it was best not to contradict her when she was in a good mood.

He nodded strangely and said—

"I see……"

Qin Hui blinked. Although she was still confused, Chen Ming's frustrated expression made her somewhat happy. She secretly smiled from an angle where her mother couldn't see.
