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

Lucifer crossed his arms and said—

"As for how powerful it is... it's hard to say, but even Cerberus didn't notice anything unusual about it..."

Although the dog is rather dim-witted, it is still Cerberus, and she didn't even realize it, so things are definitely not that simple.

Chen Ming looked around and asked—

"So where is it now?"

"I tried to catch it to question it, but it escaped."

Chen Ming was genuinely surprised this time. It was the first time he had ever known anyone who could escape from Lucifer. In the past, everyone had been caught off guard in a single encounter.

It seems the cat in the house is really something else.

He touched the landlady's hand again, and her petite body trembled slightly.

stomping on...

Footsteps sounded outside the door. A-Fu peeked out from the doorway, looked at the three people in the living room, blinked her gray eyes, and said—

"Um, shall we start cooking now?"

It's almost time to cook, and Afu is looking forward to making a meal for everyone.

Chen Ming couldn't understand how there could be such a hardworking girl. He rested his chin on his hand, looked at A Fu, and thought of what he had said to Xuan before.

I also thought of what Dongyi had said...

Hmm... Could it really be true? If I bully A-Fu, Xuan will actually sacrifice himself for his master? Begging him not to bully our master while simultaneously offering myself up to him...

Then he burst out laughing, and the two of them started bullying each other...

Why does it seem a bit like a bully who preys on men and women?

Um... should it be "bullying one's master and bullying one's disciple"?

Chen Ming looked at A Fu and smiled.

"Ok?"

Afu tilted her head in confusion, not knowing what Chen Ming was laughing at.

Regardless, Chen Ming still quite enjoyed teasing the little maid. Seeing her expectant look as she prepared to work, he composed himself and said—

"Ah Fu, you seem to have worked a full eight hours today, right?"

"!?"

The expectation in Afu's eyes vanished instantly. He opened his mouth and said—

"No, no, I've been at school all day, there was martial arts practice and a picnic..."

How come it's already been eight hours?

Chen Ming found her anxious expression quite adorable. He suppressed a laugh, thinking how wicked men always enjoyed teasing girls.

"Yes, practicing martial arts at school is also a job, and taking care of me and preparing a picnic is also a job, isn't it? You must be tired today, so take a rest."

That's the truth. He's so tired from school, he needs to rest when he gets back.

"Waaah..."

Afu lowered her delicate eyebrows, looking dejected.

But when he came to her side, kissed her on the cheek, and said—

"I'll cook for you tonight, you can rest now."

Afu felt like pink bubbles were about to overflow from her mind, and she laughed foolishly, unable to refute his words.

Silly girl.

Chapter 299 The CEO Sister Falls in Love with Me

Come to think of it, hasn't it been a long time since I've cooked?

Chen Ming held the spatula, feeling slightly rusty.

It's not that I've never cooked anything; I've made a few pancakes and such. But I've rarely been in charge of preparing a meal.

With Afu around, it's really hard to get any jobs. It's only now that we've forced her offline that we have a chance.

Qin Hui, who was helping him out, watched him wearing an apron and holding a spatula, looking every bit the domestic husband, and said with a slightly sarcastic tone—

"You can cook?"

"...Of course I can cook, I even own a shop."

Chen Ming glanced at her. Every time he talked to Miss Qin, they would end up arguing. Now that she had expressed her feelings, Chen Ming wondered if he should give in to her...

Qin Hui smiled, her expression somewhat playful, and said—

How much money did you lose by opening your shop?

"..."

Chen Ming looked at her; it seemed she was determined to cause trouble? He smiled and said—

"Originally, we neither made a profit nor a loss; it was just enough for our family to live on."

"And now?"

Qin Hui followed up on his question. She had already decided to give him a hard time in business and cause him some trouble.

Although she had already tacitly accepted that it was given away for free, Qin Hui was still somewhat stubborn.

I've never been one to admit defeat since I was a child, and that's why I demand the best of myself in every aspect of life. I've gained some experience in both cooking and business.

It's more than enough, at least when facing Chen Ming.

Come on, let's see how you make your move. No matter what you say, I'm better than you.

However, arguing is not often a test of overall strength. Just like before, Qin Hui, a strong woman, was still bullied and suppressed by Chen Ming.

Most of the time, arguing is just a contest of who can be more shameless.

A girl like Qin Hui probably rarely argues with anyone, since it would be too low-class, and she doesn't have many friends to argue with.

That's why he was able to take advantage of the situation.

Chen Ming stir-fried the chicken in the pan, then turned the heat down to low, covered the pan, and turned his head with a smile to look at Miss Qin, who exuded a mature and charming aura. He knew in his heart that she was actually very naive and a blank slate when it came to relationships.

He still acts like a child, trying to make his presence felt in front of his crush.

Qin Hui felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and said—

"What's wrong? Hmph, it's not so shameful if you lose money, after all, that's all you're capable of..."

Chen Ming found her affected manner somewhat amusing and said—

"Originally, it was a small business, breaking even."

"and after?"

"And then..."

Chen Ming narrowed his eyes and slowly approached her. Qin Hui was a little confused, her expression froze slightly, and she couldn't help but take a few steps back, but she quickly got close to the edge of the stage.

"you……"

Qin Hui looked at his face so close to hers and couldn't help but look away, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Chen Ming looked down at her; her hunched-over, mature woman appearance was incredibly alluring.

He smiled and said to her—

"Later, I started dating a young, beautiful, and wealthy woman, and I made a fortune."

"..."

Qin Hui's lips twitched. She hadn't expected him to pull this stunt... You're all mine, what could be more profitable? Chen Ming pinched her nose.

Qin Hui bit her lower lip in frustration.

It seems that arguing really is about who can be more shameless.

In this exchange, Qin Hui was slightly outmatched again. Watching him turn back to continue cooking, she wondered when he would finally get his revenge...

Perhaps she doesn't really care about getting revenge; perhaps she keeps losing, but she also keeps winning...

Who knows?

Qin Hui moved closer to him again, watching him cook, and began to act as his strategist—

"There's too much salt in it."

Why is sugar added to dumpling dipping sauce?

Don't you think it's unhealthy to stir-fry first and then boil?

"Huh? Tilapia can be eaten?"

……

This Miss Qin is a bit annoying, Chen Ming thought, speechless. Has she become a little clingy? What should you do when a girl is this annoying?

To answer this question, you need to first consider why she keeps bothering you. Perhaps she wants to buy something, but Qin Hui, being a wealthy woman, is certainly not short of money.

So it should be...

Feeling a little lonely?

The wrong approach is to say the girl is annoying, which leads to an argument. The correct approach is...

“Drawing”.

"Ok?"

Qin Hui turned to look at him, her carefully applied makeup making her even more beautiful. Who was she trying to impress with all this? Chen Ming smiled; this stubborn tsundere.

To deal with a tsundere, just take direct action.

He lowered his head and gently pecked her cheek.

Then, watching her expression, from a slight startle to a gradual blush, then a hint of panic, her mature expression slowly softened, becoming adorable.
