Lucifer's red eyes looked over, and Gu Qing felt as if she had been pierced by a sharp blade, her whole body stiffening and unable to move.

In less than a second, Lucifer withdrew his piercing gaze and walked in.

"This is getting a bit troublesome..."

Chen Ming blinked, looked at his wife, and asked in surprise—

"Even Lucifer finds it troublesome?"

Lucifer chuckled and tapped Gu Qing's head with his finger. Gu Qing didn't dare to move and shrank back, trembling slightly.

She said—

"It's not me who's in trouble, it's this guy. Their two souls have merged to some extent... Forcibly separating them would mean at least one of them would disappear..."

Gu Qing shuddered.

The one with the red eyes shouted—

"Lord Lucifer, please do justice for me! This human has broken the contract!"

"So what exactly is this contract?!"

The person with the black eye also cried out. Although she always said that the world of ordinary people was boring, she didn't intend to die.

The red-eyed man said viciously—

"When you turn thirty, I'll take over the contract!"

Chapter 388 The True Contract of Indenture

Hearing this, Qin Hui couldn't help but widen her eyes, looking at Gu Qing, and said—

"Gu Qing, you..."

"I don't know! I didn't sign any contract!"

Gu Qing explained anxiously. She had already realized that what she had on her body didn't seem to be a big problem in the eyes of this group of people, and it seemed that everyone regarded Chen Ming as their leader.

Miss Gu is even more formidable than Qin Hui in some ways. In the Gu family, apart from the old man, no one dares to cross her.

To achieve this level of skill, her vision and methods are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Such a clever person would naturally know how to seize opportunities, so when that guy complained to Lucifer, she quickly and loudly explained, looking at Chen Ming with a pitiful expression.

And she wasn't wrong; she had no memory of signing a contract at all.

Qin Hui looked at Gu Qing, gently shook her head, and said—

"No, I wasn't talking about the contract... but rather, you're already thirty? Didn't you say you were only a year older than me?"

"..."

Is that the main point?

Gu Qing felt like he was choking on blood. He glared at Qin Hui. Not only was this guy not helping, but he was also enjoying watching the show.

Actually, this can only be described as karma. Gu Qing used to nag Qin Hui about marriage, always teasing Qin Hui for not being in a relationship at her age. Now Qin Hui has discovered that Gu Qing is actually much older...

Qin Hui smiled and said—

"Aunt Gu?"

"Huihui, you!"

Gu Qing couldn't catch her breath and raised her hand to hit, but her other side of her body wouldn't obey her commands, so she could only try to hit someone with her left hand and left foot.

Qin Hui laughed heartily.

You've been using that cute, innocent face to fool people all this time. Now that you've been exposed, you must be feeling pretty bad, right?

Chen Ming glanced at Qin Hui, then at Gu Qing. He thought to himself, "You two are pretty much the same, almost ready to dance the 'Drunken Butterfly' dance together, do you really need to argue like this?"

But I dared not say it out loud, as I didn't want to get involved in this kind of woman's argument and sensed a hint of danger.

Everyone says he's dense, but he's actually quite shrewd.

I stole a glance at Lucifer.

Honey, honey, please think of a solution! Honey, why aren't you saying anything? Honey, say something!

"..."

Perhaps Chen Ming's thoughts reached Lucifer's mind; she glanced at him with her red eyes, smiled slightly, and looked back at Gu Qing, saying—

"I don't care about anything else. Now, demon, tell me the contents of your contract."

"Okay, okay..."

The one with the red eyes looked somewhat timid; she couldn't afford to offend someone like Lucifer. She spoke cautiously—

"The contract states that I will possess this body, and I can collect the price when I turn thirty..."

"That's why I said I never signed a contract."

"Who said you signed it?"

"Hey?"

The person with the black eyes paused slightly.

The red-eyed man was annoyed at being interrupted, but dared not retaliate in front of Lucifer and Cerberus, and continued—

"It was the contract that Gu Jia and I signed at that time."

"...Those idiots actually sold me out?"

Gu Qing was furious. She already disliked her family, and now she was even angrier. She said—

"This is unreasonable. What business is it of mine what other people sign?"

A cold smile appeared on the side of the red eyes—

"Indeed, it has nothing to do with you. You're just a burden that only brings benefits."

"What did you say?"

It looks like Gu Qing is about to put on an ambidextrous act again. Lucifer frowned and said—

"What exactly happened?"

The one with the red eyes said—

"At that time, Madam Gu was pregnant and had a difficult childbirth. She barely gave birth to a deformed body with only a wisp of soul. The baby stopped breathing as soon as it came out."

His black eyes widened, as if he was too shocked to speak.

The one with the red eyes continued—

"At that time, I had just been released by Lord Cerberus. Although the lord let me through the door, my body was gone and my soul was damaged, so I wanted to find a place to recover."

"Since the Gu family was performing a demon summoning ritual, I decided to try my luck and see if I could sign a contract and get some supplies."

"Fortunately, they signed a contract with me, exchanging their souls, which were equivalent to twenty years of their own lifespan, their physical bodies, and the identity of 'Gu Qing,' for their daughter's soul to remain intact for thirty years."

"This is the limit of what I can do. With the cooperation of some humans, I temporarily merged with that remnant soul, which is how Gu Qing came to be, living for thirty years. According to the contract, after thirty years, her remnant soul will be devoured by me, and then I will be Gu Qing..."

The person with the red eye gritted their teeth and said again—

"But for some reason, her remnant soul seems to have fully recovered and is now entangled with me, which is acting strangely."

"..."

Lucifer narrowed his eyes, glanced at Chen Ming, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Ok?"

Chen Ming, who had been engrossed in the story, suddenly felt mocked by his wife. He tilted his head and asked—

"what happened?"

"Hmm...this is your fault."

"My fault???"

He didn't appear in the story at all, did he? Several question marks popped up above Chen Ming's head.

Lucifer shook his head, reached out, and made a grasping motion towards Gu Qing's head. Instantly, a halo appeared above her head, and sensing Lucifer's approach, it struck her with a small golden lightning bolt.

But his little struggle was ultimately futile; Lucifer easily grabbed the circle of light and said—

“Originally, Gu Qing’s remnant soul should have dissipated, but you healed it with Raphael’s power, and even infiltrated the demon’s soul.”

"Ah, this..."

Chen Ming's mouth dropped open. He had only subconsciously wanted to use Raphael's ability to save people; he hadn't thought that much about it... In fact, Raphael's healing ability wasn't limited to the body; it could also heal the soul and faith.

The atmosphere suddenly seemed a bit off...

Gu Qing bit her lower lip, her red eyes filled with tears, looking like a wronged girl, looking at Chen Ming, but daring not to speak out.

Lord Lucifer and Lord Cerberus are so kind to him, how could he dare to complain to him?

"Bullying people..."

She was simply collecting the price according to the contract, but who would have thought that something unexpected would happen...

Wronged Baba.

On the other side of the black eyes, Gu Qing was still somewhat stunned by so much bombshell news, staring blankly at Chen Ming.

This person saved her...

then……

Did her parents lose a total of 40 years of their lives because of her?

The old man and the old woman...

She gritted her teeth, finding it hard to accept.

Chapter 389 Lilith

“You are not a complete person at all, you are not qualified to sign a contract, and you were even dead at the beginning. I made you live to be thirty years old, and now this identity should belong entirely to me.”

The red eyes are so firm.
