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

"Only now you've realized it? It seems you're not too resistant to my closeness."

Chen Ming smiled and carried her on his back. They were almost at the top of the mountain. He was taking his time and didn't want to rush, as he wanted to talk to her as much as possible.

This guy...

Aunt sighed. Her resolve slowly dissolved as he opened up to her. There was no one else around, so why was she so resistant?

She squinted, her cheek pressed against his back, and murmured—

"Tell me, what should a woman do if she falls for a man who is more than ten years younger than her?"

Chen Ming was taken aback. Was this a tacit admission? Although he was somewhat happy, he couldn't help but worry about whether she would feel pressured.

It would have been better to just push all the responsibility onto him; he wouldn't have had to admit it.

Chen Ming couldn't help but feel a little happy and said—

"Age doesn't matter. It's a matter of mutual consent, and there was no coercion."

"But that person is still a nominal elder, yet they did something outrageous. How can we explain this to the boy's parents?"

The aunt's tone was somewhat weak. This was what she was most worried about: if her family found out about his absurd affair, would it ruin their precious daily life?

It would be fine if she were punished, but he couldn't escape responsibility either... He even tried to use forcing her as an excuse to take all the blame, which was something she didn't want to see.

Chen Ming indeed said—

"It's alright. The boy has his own considerations. He's old enough to take responsibility for his actions. When the time comes, let him take responsibility and shoulder the consequences..."

"..."

His aunt grabbed his clothes and said—

"Bear the burden all by yourself?"

"...Meimei?"

"If you're in a relationship, you shouldn't have to bear it all by yourself."

"...Precisely because we are lovers, I don't want her to suffer."

What's the point of being too gentle? I don't want you to suffer either.

"..."

Chen Ming's eyes widened slightly, wanting to turn around and check her expression. However, he accidentally bumped into a pedestrian, apologized, and then focused on walking.

The two remained silent at this moment.

We arrived at the lookout tower in silence, where we could see the entire county town.

The sun gradually sank, and golden sunlight spilled across the earth; it was dusk.

He placed his aunt on the bench and sat down next to her.

The two of them stared at the sunset, lost in thought.

It's not about who took the initiative; once you hold someone's hand, a myriad of emotions are stirred within you.

My aunt's profile was bathed in a golden glow as she spoke—

"It's not too late to regret it now. I can still pretend nothing happened... But it will be too late after that."

If you keep getting this close, I'll start to believe you.

Chen Ming smiled, put his hand on her shoulder, and said—

"It's too late, Chen Mei..."

As he spoke, he slowly moved closer. As his aunt watched him approach, she slowly closed her pale eyes and moved closer to him.

As the sun set, the two slowly intertwined their fingers.

Chapter 434 Aunt, Be My Wife

"Hmph hmph hmph... Hmph hmph hmph..."

Chen Ming's mood became extremely high. If it weren't for his beloved aunt carrying him on his back, he probably would have jumped up and rushed all the way down the mountain.

Despite experiencing many absurd things and some twists and turns, the two eventually faced their relationship together.

His aunt leaned against him, letting out a soft sigh. What would they do from now on? Although she had said she didn't want him to bear it all alone, the thought of his sister-in-law finding out about their relationship...

My deep-seated fear of my sister-in-law resurfaced.

Will my sister-in-law skin me alive? I couldn't help but tremble. I had done such a shameless thing to her son. A beating was definitely not enough.

So melancholy...

The aunt was a little worried, but seeing his cheerful expression made her laugh, so she couldn't help but pat his head and say—

"You little brat, what's with all the excitement?"

"Hmm, aren't you happy now that you've got a wife?"

"Who said I wanted to be your wife?"

His aunt blushed, clinging to his back with a touch of smugness. But Chen Ming suddenly became anxious, as if startled, turning back to look at his aunt on top of him, and said—

"What... Auntie, you can't go back on your word."

"What do you mean by cheating? Where did I cheat? What did I promise you?"

My aunt looked completely self-righteous, clearly having reverted to her original old witch-like state. After acknowledging her true feelings, she returned to her old ways.

Chen Ming opened his mouth, thought for a moment, and then said—

"At least you promised to do whatever I say..."

"Hmph, I don't remember!"

"..."

"What a confident and self-righteous attitude! It's definitely that aunt." Chen Ming was speechless, but then couldn't help but laugh and said—

"Never mind, you're cuter the way you are."

Although it was a pity he couldn't see her shy and timid appearance, Chen Ming turned back and continued carrying his aunt down the mountain. It was getting dark, and the path through the woods appeared somewhat dim and eerie.

However, he can now see even in the dark, so he is not afraid.

His aunt felt incredibly safe leaning against his broad back, a smile playing on her lips and a slight blush on her cheeks. She whispered in his ear—

"This guy is a scoundrel. Having Xiaoxiao wasn't enough; he's lured so many girls away, and now he's even eyeing this old woman... Isn't he just into older women?"

"Well... if I had to say, no... I guess not."

Chen Ming's tone lacked confidence, after all, he didn't know the exact age of his family members, Afu, Lucifer, Cerberus, and Raphael.

Among them, A Fu should be the youngest, and conservatively estimated to be several thousand years old... Thinking about it this way, Chen Ming is simply the ultimate older woman lover and a mature woman killer.

Ahem, of course we can't just look at whether the numbers are right or wrong, we have to look at the actual performance, we're all beautiful girls...

In terms of mature charm, only Auntie truly stands out. Qin Hui only has a slight hint of it, after all, Hui Hui is still relatively young.

Chen Ming shook his head, bounced a bit, adjusted his posture while carrying his aunt, and said with a smile—

"I'm not into older women, I just like my aunt. But she's middle-aged now, so I guess I'm into older women."

If he likes an older sister, then he's a sister complex; if he likes someone who isn't human, then he's a non-human complex; if he likes his aunt, then he's an older woman complex; if he likes a loli, then he's...

Anyway, the key is what kind of person you like, not what attributes you like.

He loves someone, and he loves everything that person goes through from childhood to adulthood, from little girl to adult, to maturity, and finally to old age... Which stage is not worth loving?

I'm not a fan of older men, but because of you, I've become one.

Her aunt felt a warmth in her heart. Was this the taste of first love? This dreamlike and unreal feeling made her somewhat unable to extricate herself.

Is it a bit strange to have your first love in your forties?

But he didn't care at all.

She whispered in his ear, thought for a moment, and said—

"Don't do anything strange when you get back."

"Strange behavior?"

Chen Ming was somewhat puzzled.

His aunt gently patted his head and said—

"Silly girl, I just wanted you to be less obvious."

"Um... I don't quite understand."

Chen Ming seemed to have turned into a block of wood, which puzzled his aunt. It seemed that he really didn't understand what she was saying.

"..."

Seeing his excited expression, his aunt felt uneasy and asked—

What are your plans after you go back?

"Hmm? Of course, I'll just tell my parents I want to marry my aunt!"

"!!!"

What?! Auntie was completely stunned. Are you an idiot? How could you do this? Even if we're not related by blood, even if your brother and sister-in-law dote on you, you'll really die if you act like this!

You might not be afraid of death, but I'm afraid of my sister-in-law's broom!

No, we can't do that.

She quickly grabbed Chen Ming's ear and said—

"You little brat, wait a minute!"

"what?"

Chen Ming looked back, puzzled, as his aunt pulled his ear. He didn't understand why she seemed so anxious.

He said with a helpless expression—

"They used to call me Mingming, but now they call me 'little brat,' it sounds so weird..."
