"Of course, I'll help."
"I'm serious, from now on you'll be my master, so please... huh?"
Gu Qing thought she would have to say more, but his relaxed tone took her by surprise. She stared at him blankly with her wet lips agape.
"What...what did you say?"
“I said I would help.”
Chen Ming nodded. There was no reason not to help. He had a halo around himself, but he usually just acted as a third wheel and hadn't been able to help many people. He figured the halo was pretty boring.
Moreover, Gu Qing also helped this time, risking being knocked away by Raphael, by helping Chen Ming and the others take down the berserk Raphael, which can be considered a favor.
Besides, even for Qin Hui's sake, he couldn't not help her friend... As for Qin Hui's friend seemingly harboring some intention to cheat on her, Chen Ming had no way of knowing that.
"You...you're serious?"
Gu Qing gripped his hand tightly, as if he would change his mind if she let go.
Chen Ming reached out a hand to comfort her, patted her head, and said—
"Why would I lie to you? It's urgent. Once we've sorted things out here, I'll go with you tomorrow to get your parents treated, okay?"
There are still some things to take care of today, and I also need to wait for Afu to come back and comfort her. Otherwise, even a little maid would lose her temper, right? After what happened to her master, she definitely wants to see him safe and sound.
Gu Qing was stunned; the matter was so simple it felt unreal to her. Actually, many things are like this, far less serious than imagined; it's just that concern clouded her judgment.
Chen Ming touched Gu Qing's pale cheek and said with some concern—
"Your face feels so cold, are you alright?"
"..."
Gu Qing looked at him with her heterochromatic eyes, one red and one black, then suddenly rolled her eyes back and fainted in his arms.
"Hello? Miss Gu Qing? What's wrong...?"
Chen Ming felt her massive softness pressed against his body, and his hands hovered in the air, slightly at a loss. The landlady and Yu Qian stared wide-eyed for a moment, then narrowed their eyes.
Central air conditioning is really not to be underestimated.
He felt like he was holding a hot potato, unsure of where to touch it, especially with a young girl watching nearby... He was momentarily speechless with embarrassment.
Fortunately, Gu Qing quickly raised her head, looked up at him from his arms with a fawning smile, and said—
"Hehe, does that mean I'm yours now?"
"Ok?"
Why is she suddenly saying something out of the blue? Chen Ming certainly wouldn't let Gu Qingzhen be his slave over something like this... but it does seem a bit strange.
He squinted, watching Gu Qing's seemingly playful and ingratiating attitude, and tentatively said—
"Lilith?"
"Your Majesty truly has discerning eyes."
Lilith snuggled greedily into Chen Ming's arms, secretly delighted. After Gu Qingzhen had a relationship with the Great King, wouldn't that mean she would also rise to power?
That's a real bargain.
Given Grand Prince Chen Ming's gentle nature, even if he ascended to the throne through such cheating, he would definitely acknowledge the relationship. This way, he could be with the Grand Prince and experience a romance he longed for...
Thinking about it carefully, the Great Khan did save his life, so he was his savior. Falling in love with his savior was just too wonderful.
Lilith blushed slightly and stared at Chen Ming with a somewhat infatuated expression, making him feel uncomfortable.
He tried to push her away, but Lilith held on quite tightly… Chen Ming thought for a moment and said—
"I'm going to call Lucifer over."
Lilith snapped back to reality, realizing she was cheating on her husband right in front of Lord Lucifer… Her body stiffened, and she slowly looked outside. She didn’t see Lucifer himself, but she heard the conversation outside. Ultimately, she didn’t dare to push her luck any further and obediently sat down.
Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Qing's body, which exuded a criminal aura, was indeed very tempting. Fortunately, he had vented his anger on Raphael before, otherwise he might have embarrassed himself.
He looked at Lilith, who was resting her cheek on her hand and occasionally glancing at him with a shy smile... Was this demon a little ominous?
He looks like he's drooling over a girl he's swooning over...
Chen Ming felt a tightening sensation in his lower body.
One body, two souls with different styles, it's bound to be troublesome in all aspects if they get along in the future, right?
Whoever marries Gu Qing in the future will be in for a world of trouble.
But maybe it will bring double the happiness?
Chapter 532 Even the most virtuous wife makes mistakes
Everyone tidied up the room together and gathered around Raphael, looking down at the silly angel who had gotten himself into big trouble this time...
Dong Yi scratched his head, pointed at her, and asked—
"What... should we do with this?"
"that……"
Chen Ming scratched his head. As Raphael's husband, he first apologized to everyone and said—
"I'm so sorry."
"I'm fine."
Dong Yi began to feel smug again, and said—
"Hmph, I just chopped off his hand and stabbed his heart in one go, that was really satisfying... Speaking of which, this guy was the one who was injured the most in this incident."
"That's because they went easy on you."
Lucifer smiled. Raphael's strength was like crushing ants to those who stayed behind at home, yet they only suffered minor injuries.
Perhaps she didn't want to upset Chen Ming, or perhaps she was thinking of their past relationship; she only wanted to take Chen Ming away and didn't want to hurt anyone.
Although stealing someone else's man is an unforgivable act, there's no way to whitewash it.
Cerberus was still gnawing on Raphael's head, and said viciously—
"Eat her! I want to eat big chicken wings!"
Chen Ming hesitated slightly, but still spoke with some bias—
"Come here, Cerberus, I'll make you chicken wings later."
He picked her up, and the dog struggled a little in his arms. He turned her over and rubbed her soft belly, which made her shudder. Her red eyes resisted for a minute, and then she immediately became happy, sticking out her tongue, rolling her eyes, and trembling.
Unable to think about anything else, my mind was once again filled only with thoughts of my master.
That's despicable.
Lucifer looked at him with his red eyes, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile—
"Let her apologize to everyone after she wakes up. Whether or not they forgive her is their business."
"Yeah, that's what I think too. Let her sleep on the sofa outside until everyone forgives her."
Chen Ming quickly followed up on Lucifer's words. That was exactly what he had planned. In this sweltering heat, making Raphael sleep outside without air conditioning was a fair punishment.
Moreover, for Raphael, Chen Ming was the most important thing. He wouldn't be able to sleep with Chen Ming for a long time, and he wouldn't let Chen Ming cover him with his big wings...
For Raphael, it was practically hell.
The punishment was undeniably severe.
The matter has come to an end here, the perception of Tsinghua and Peking Universities has been rewritten, and the siblings' bakery has returned to its original state.
Everyone gathered together, and Chen Ming decided to discuss something important. He looked at the girls around him, scratched his head, and said—
"Um... there's something I'd like to discuss with you..."
"what?"
Everyone looked over; red eyes, black eyes, and brown eyes… Their various beautiful eyes made him a little nervous.
She couldn't help but stroke the dog in her arms, her cheeks slightly flushed, but she still said—
"I think... maybe we should change our shop name..."
"Change the store name?"
Lucifer tilted her head, thought for a moment, and realized the current shop name seemed to be "Siblings Bakery." After a pause, she rested her chin on her hand and tentatively said—
"Has this finally come to this...?"
"Yes, yes..."
He was a little afraid to look Lucifer in the eye, feeling somewhat guilty. She was the one who confessed her feelings to him in the first place, but she tolerated his philandering.
Lucifer looked at him, saw his embarrassed expression, and seemed to have guessed something, then smiled and said—
"It's okay, changing it to a more fitting store name is fine too, after all, no one expected things to turn out this way."
"Yes, yes, life is truly unpredictable."
Chen Ming would never have imagined that he would have relationships with so many girls in the past. He thought he would be a good-for-nothing for life and be kept by his older sister.
Um... now I'm being kept in captivity by everyone, so it doesn't seem to matter much... cough cough, it's okay, as long as there's love.
Lucifer, being a virtuous wife, offered her advice—
"Then let's wait for Afu to come back and change the signboard. Afu knows feng shui and calligraphy, so it's best to let her handle this."
"That's what I think too, so I'm asking for everyone's opinion first."
This shop is also their home, so he certainly can't make decisions unilaterally... Even though he has the right to do so, and the girls would definitely go along with him, he still wants to show that he takes care of them.
He valued them highly.
Dong Yi scratched his smooth little belly and said, looking annoyed—
"You can make the decision about this."
"I will listen to whatever Dad does."
Yuqian's attachment always seemed a bit excessive.
"Woof...woof..."
