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

Although at first it felt like the pain was about to split open, and there was a hint of fear, the pain quickly subsided in his arms.

She nestled against him and said—

"I'm just... happy."

Why are you happy?

Chen Ming looked at her. She had given him everything and was happy about it. What this meant seemed obvious, but she didn't say it.

She didn't say "I like it".

Even when faced with his domineering presence, in the most uncontrollable moment, she pleaded with him gently, saying she would dedicate herself to him forever, but she never uttered a single word of "I like you".

Almost.

Chen Ming felt that he should teach this disobedient young lady a lesson until she rolled her eyes and said she liked it.

But I'll pass.

He had seen Gu Qing's condition these past few days and couldn't help but feel pity for her, unwilling to treat her too cruelly. After all, this was her first experience, and she needed to be carefully protected.

He comforted Gu Qing and looked around the room. The chair was overturned on the floor, and the things that had been on the table were also overturned on the floor.

It was something that Chen Ming had swept away haphazardly before.

Those tea sets and such were exquisite works of art, but he felt no regret whatsoever. Because at that moment, Gu Qing, whom he wanted to display and admire, was the most beautiful art.

She is petite and easy to handle.

Chen Ming's desire for control was indeed aroused, and he couldn't help but want to hold this lovely girl in his hands forever.

I only came to my senses now.

He stroked Gu Qing's hair and said softly—

Why do this?

"...This is what I owe you."

Gu Qing buried her face in his chest, wanting to attribute everything to her debt, but she lacked confidence and didn't want him to see her expression.

He narrowed his eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said—

"Really? Now that you've paid it back, don't mention being a slave anymore."

"This won't do!"

Gu Qing looked up in a fluster, her hands resting on his chest, her one dark and one red eye looking at him, and said—

“This is just a little bit. Everything I have is yours. I owe you everything. You should take it all… You are my creditor.”

"..."

As Chen Ming listened, he began to feel that something was amiss, and he was completely stunned when Gu Qing uttered the word "creditor".

Wait, haven't I seen this tactic somewhere before?

Chen Ming fell into deep thought.

How amazing!

Before Chen Ming could figure it out, Gu Qing had already leaned out her petite body and pressed against him, her soft lips covering his.

His thoughts were taken away, and he could only look back at the girl in front of him...

No, shouldn't we really call her a woman now?

She was a girl when she was thirty, but now he has taken away something precious from her.

Therefore, Chen Ming felt that he should indeed take off his "lolita complex" label, since all the women he was involved with were mature women...

Looking at the young lady with a youthful face and huge breasts in his arms, he seemed to have to question the term "mature woman".

Wouldn't that become evidence of a lolicon?

Chen Ming smiled helplessly.

He patted Gu Qing's smooth back and said—

"Alright, didn't we say we were discharged from the hospital? It's been so long, they might be rushing over here soon. Time to get up."

"..."

When Gu Qing heard Chen Ming say this, her heterochromatic eyes lowered slightly, as if she was somewhat worried.

He asked with concern—

"What's wrong? Aunt Bai should have been cured by me too, there won't be any aftereffects."

"No, that's not what I'm worried about..."

Gu Qing stammered.

Chen Ming frowned unhappily, reached out to cup her face, looked at her face which still resembled that of a teenage girl, and said—

"What did you say before? You'd do whatever I said, but now you won't even answer my questions? Hmm?"

"No, it's not..."

Gu Qing waved her hand, sat on his lap like a duck, looked down, and said—

"What...should I say to them?"

The rift has deepened, and it seems that nothing can salvage the situation. Even though we've let go of it now and stopped dwelling on it, the awkwardness still lingers.

Chen Ming said—

"Nothing to say?"

She placed her hand on his chest, leaned against him, and said—

"I have no idea……"

"It's okay."

Chen Ming embraced her and said—

“I’ll go with you. I think they’ll ask me about things, so let’s start from there and slowly get them talking. It won’t be too abrupt.”

Hmm... Chen Ming suddenly thought about it and realized that he could have been more confident in his own opinion, feeling that there was nothing between him and Gu Qing, so he didn't care much about what others thought.

But now that the cabbage has been taken, even though it was the cabbage that took the initiative, the pig couldn't resist the temptation, so he also bears some responsibility.

The responsibility is still huge.

I'm shivering and cold. When will the pig be able to stand up?

There's no such thing as taking advantage without taking responsibility in this world; every cause has its effect. Chen Ming scratched his head, looking at the person in his arms…

"Suddenly I feel like I should earn more money back..."

"Ok?"

Gu Qing tilted her head, and then Chen Ming flipped her over and pushed her down...

Bang!

The door to the room suddenly burst open, and a lively girl with white hair and red eyes rushed in, laughing happily and showing her little canine teeth—

"Master! I'm back! My reward... well..."

The excited words froze in mid-air. Her red eyes blinked as she looked around the somewhat messy room and the scattered pieces of her dress on the floor…

Cerberus sniffed, catching a strange smell, a strong scent of his master. He often smelled it on Lucifer and the others at home as well.

She looked at the large bed, and Chen Ming and Gu Qing stared at her with wide eyes in alarm.

Cerberus, looking rather foolish, put his index finger in his mouth and nibbled on it. He blinked at them and said—

"Is Master... punishing Gu Qing?"

Chapter 647 The Dog Gets Closer to the Truth

A secluded corridor.

Bang.

Gu Qing rushed out wearing only a thin shirt and with her bare, fair legs and feet exposed, her head down and her face flushed red.

He rushed straight into another room and slammed the door shut.

Chen Ming lay on the bed watching the direction Gu Qing had left in. He stretched out one hand slightly, but ultimately did not stop the shy girl, letting her go.

Her fragrance still lingered in my arms.

Hmm... Gu Qing escaped, but what should I do...?

Chen Ming hesitated for a moment, then felt a cold sweat trickle down his forehead as he noticed the gaze fixed on him from the side.

He turned his head stiffly and met a pair of red eyes that were inches away from his.

"Well……"

Cerberus stared intently at his master, his hands and feet on the bed, his body pressed very close, as if trying to bore a hole through him with his gaze.

I could feel the dog's breath on my face, so gentle and soft.

Its ears twitched, and its big tail wagged incessantly.

It was as if they had discovered that their owner had secretly hidden away some meaty bones, and they wanted to find out more.

Her gaze slowly moved downwards.

Chen Ming, his forehead dripping with cold sweat, lightly pulled up his pants, feeling so embarrassed he was practically dying of embarrassment. Looking at his dog, he forced a smile and said—

"Cerberus... how's the matter I asked you to do going?"

"It's finished."

Cerberus nodded, still staring intently at his master's trousers, his expression hesitant, occasionally tilting his head in great confusion.

It seems as if he's about to utter something earth-shattering at any moment.

Chen Ming forced himself to change the subject and said—

"Since it's all done... then I'll give you the reward I promised. What do you want? How about I make you bone broth? Or take you for a walk..."
