Chen Ming was still patient enough to wait, after all, his wife was so beautiful, and she dressed up carefully for him, so he was willing to wait a little longer.

Lucifer was actually quite efficient; he didn't keep him waiting. He emerged shortly, his red eyes fixed on him, and said—

"Alright, let's go."

"Ah."

Chen Ming nodded, looking at Lucifer, who was dressed in a black dress, bare-legged and wearing a pair of white strappy sandals, revealing her beautiful toes.

Her long, white hair cascaded down her shoulders; she was naturally beautiful. She wore no other adornments, her appearance simple and clean, yet her charm was undeniable.

Well, my wife is already very beautiful even without makeup. She would make other girls feel ashamed if she just went out in a simple outfit.

He smiled and said—

"I just feel like something's not quite right."

"what?"

"Taking someone as beautiful as you to the market... feels like a waste."

"……Fool."

Lucifer chuckled and patted his arm, then casually took his hand, saying—

"If I don't go to the market, how am I supposed to buy groceries and cook for you?"

"It feels a bit unreal to have the Queen of Hell buy groceries and cook for me."

The once high and mighty queen is now a married woman, busy with the mundane affairs of daily life, willingly falling into depravity for the sake of her beloved.

Chen Ming scratched his head. Although he was very happy, he couldn't help but think of treating Lucifer like a precious treasure.

Lucifer looked at him and smiled, saying—

"I like being by your side, not in front of you, not behind you, but side by side with you, just like now."

She took his arm, and the two walked slowly forward, both feeling a sense of peace and tranquility, with their loved one by their side.

He felt as if he had suddenly become an old man, with his old wife beside him, the habit of being together deeply ingrained in his heart.

Chen Ming looked at the girl beside him and said—

"That sounds nice, but you've gone a bit too far now. You won't let me do anything, which makes me get scolded by my parents."

All that talk about being side by side is a lie. In their family, the person who does the housework undoubtedly has a higher status.

Except for Afu.

Lucifer laughed and said—

"Well... um, what do you think would be a good meal today? How about pork rib soup?"

They've changed the subject.

Chen Ming smiled and reached out to pat her head. He was just joking. What Lucifer meant by "side by side" was that they should live together as ordinary people, just like him, and go through life hand in hand.

Cook for your husband like an ordinary wife, and be filial to your elders like an ordinary daughter-in-law.

Nothing else is needed.

Living with him, this ordinary life is enough.

The two walked together down the street. Lucifer's gaze was drawn to a clothing store. He glanced at him, thought for a moment, and asked—

"It seems like most of your clothes are black, and your parents often complain about it. Maybe we should go buy some more..."

"do not want!"

Chen Ming reacted rather strongly, naturally showing a resistance to buying clothes for himself. But he was very enthusiastic when buying clothes for Lucifer and the others.

Lucifer narrowed his eyes and said—

"Wouldn't it be better to buy some brightly colored clothes?"

"It gets dirty easily, and it looks really bad when it gets dirty. Black is the best color, it's understated."

Chen Ming nodded. His parents had said this to him before, often criticizing his old-fashioned taste and his outdated clothes, saying he lacked vitality.

At first, he thought it made sense, believing that at 23, he should still have some energy... until his parents pulled out Douyin and Kuaishou videos of "spirited young men," wanting Chen Ming to emulate them...

Suddenly, I felt a generation gap of more than twenty years that seemed insurmountable.

So it turns out there really are people who like that.

He always thought everyone was watching it as a funny video.

The clown was me.

An astonishing fact has been discovered.

However, he didn't mean to say anything; it was just that Chen Ming himself couldn't accept it, just like his parents didn't know why their son, at such an old age, still liked watching "cartoons."

It's normal for people to have different aesthetic tastes.

But it's absolutely impossible to force him to become like that!

Lucifer tilted her head, looking at him as if he were in a daze, his thoughts probably wandering off somewhere. She smiled and said—

"If you're worried about it getting dirty, I can wash it for you. It'll get it very clean."

"Thank you, my dear wife. But let's go buy groceries."

"Hmm... I still want to buy it for you; your clothes are really old."

Lucifer rested his smooth chin on his fingers, genuinely considering his feelings.

He doesn't buy clothes himself. His parents said he's still wearing his junior high school clothes, which are almost seven or eight years old. Other people only wear new clothes for three years and old clothes for three years, or six years.

He gave Dongyi the few relatively new clothes that he himself had never worn. Dongyi didn't mind at all and always shared clothes with him, like a tomboy. However, it couldn't hide her good looks, which actually added to her charm.

Chen Ming looked at Lucifer. A girl so considerate, willing to do his laundry and cook for him, was hard to refuse. So he scratched his head and said—

"Let's wait until after we buy the groceries and then see."

"it is good."

Lucifer and he continued strolling together, walking at a leisurely pace. There was no need to rush; chatting with each other and showing off their affection to passersby was quite enjoyable.

Look, I have such a beautiful and virtuous wife. Do you have one?

Chen Ming now understands how those silly couples he'd seen before felt. Is it really that fun to feed others dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)? Yes, it is. It's really fun.

Chen Ming and Lucifer were very close together, they were a complete idiot couple, and he finally became the kind of person he hated the most.

While happily strolling through the streets with Lucifer, Lucifer suddenly noticed a white figure out of the corner of his eye. A white cat tail disappeared at the entrance of the alley.

is her?

Lucifer blinked, tugged at Chen Ming's arm, and said—

"I think I just saw my cat at home."

"Liuli? Where is it?"

Chen Ming looked at the alley Lucifer was pointing to, and the two walked over together.

Then I saw a white cat talking to a little girl eating a lollipop—

"Want to become a magical girl? I can grant your wish, like... um, ice cream?"

"..."

Trying to fool people into thinking they're magical girls with just an ice cream?

Stop it! You're not even human anymore!

Chapter 413 The Origins of Magical Girls

"stop it now!"

Chen Ming stepped inside and picked up his cat.

"Meow!"

Liuli seemed caught off guard by the sudden attack, her little paws waving in the air, her sapphire-like eyes turning back to look at him.

What's this guy doing here?

The little girl, who was eating a lollipop, was clearly startled by Chen Ming's sudden rush. She took a few steps back and then turned and ran away.

"and many more!"

Liuli stretched out her front paws, trying to stop them, but they had already run away.

She gritted her teeth, glared at Chen Ming, and said—

"Look what you've done!"

It waved its claws, trying to slap Chen Ming's handsome face, but its short claws couldn't reach it at all. Chen Ming dodged a little distance, and its efforts were in vain.

He looked at his cat, sighed, and said—

"Why do you always try to fool children?"

What does it mean to lie?

"Children have no ability to distinguish right from wrong, yet you make them sign a contract with you. Isn't that deceiving them?"

What kind of responsibility can a child have? To put it bluntly, what Liuli did was kidnapping.

Liuli looked at him, puzzled, and said—

"I've given them my power, and they can even have certain wishes granted. Only a child, who knows nothing, could refuse such a generous reward. Adults would just get carried away, believe it or not?"

"Forehead……"

Chen Ming thought about it and it seemed to make some sense. Adults are more easily blinded by profit and can become crazy.

He still couldn't accept it, and said—

"But it's still not good, isn't it? Making children risk their lives for you..."

"Who said I made them work hard for me?"

Liuli was even more puzzled and said—
