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

Gu Qing's eyes were brimming with tears, and her voice was choked with emotion as she spoke—

"Then you don't want me..."

"I didn't abandon you."

"So you're agreeing to let me be your slave?"

"..."

Okay, we've come full circle.

He looked at Gu Qing, who was on the verge of tears, her eyes brimming with tears, as cute as a porcelain doll. It seemed that if he said "no," this child would burst into tears right there and then.

They didn't give him any other options at all!

Chen Ming wiped his face, having already given up. He'd back down a bit in front of his beautiful wife. Besides, he figured that once Gu Qing recovered from her abnormal state, she'd probably go back to normal and never bring it up again…

hope so.

He twitched his lips and, under Gu Qing's gaze, said—

"Well... how about we talk about repaying you when you're older? You're still young now."

Gu Qing blinked, lowered her head, looked at her chest, and suddenly blushed as she said—

"Isn't this enough? It's older than many aunties, and it's always so troublesome to put it to sleep..."

"..."

That's not what I meant!

Gu Qing clenched her small fist and made up her mind—

"Okay, then I will work even harder in the future to satisfy Mr. Chen Ming."

"What are you thinking at such a young age? Get your head shut!"

Chen Ming finally couldn't resist gritting his teeth and roughly ruffling her little head, messing up her hair. Although he knew that girls usually matured early, this shamelessness was still quite awful.

And we need to work hard to grow bigger?

They even said they wanted him to be satisfied...

You, you shouldn't talk nonsense! This is slander! Big breasts and all that stuff, they're just fat, I don't like them at all...

Chen Ming, who had several busty wives at home, kept justifying himself in his mind. He just liked pretty women; otherwise, how would he explain A-Fu? Right? (1/1)

He thought of Gu Qing at thirty years old, whose size rivaled that of the three Archangel Kings, only slightly less... What should he call that?

To be on par with gods with a mortal body!

It seems to make sense...

Gu Qing felt dizzy from Chen Ming's touching, her eyes rolled back slightly, and she swayed as she said—

"Mr. Chen Ming... I'm so dizzy... Don't worry, I will definitely work hard to improve myself and become outstanding, unlike now, where I'm disliked even when I'm working like a slave."

Chen Ming looked at her, sighed, and said—

"So I didn't look down on you..."

Your idea is just a bit flawed.

As her husband, Chen Ming knew that Gu Qing's "doing one's duty as a cow or a horse" had a double meaning: one was the literal meaning of "doing one's duty as a cow or a horse," and the other was the literal meaning of "doing one's duty as a cow or a horse."

Making him ride a girl with a leash is truly bizarre; Gu Qing's wife must be seriously ill.

Let's take this opportunity to get it treated properly today.

He sat on the ground, holding her small hand, and said with a hint of helplessness—

"Why is Gu Qing so willing to be my slave? Can't it be some other kind of relationship?"

For example, a married couple...

Of course, he didn't say it aloud; he didn't want to go to jail. Where could he go to seek justice when his wife had become younger?

Gu Qing blushed, her eyes darting away, and said—

"No, there's no reason..."

"Ok?"

Chen Ming narrowed his eyes, seeing the little girl trying to be stubborn, and said—

"I won't agree to it until you explain it clearly."

"Huh? How did this happen?"

Gu Qing grew a little anxious, grabbed his hand playfully and shook it, saying—

"Mr. Chen Ming did not keep his word."

"You said it was from a past life, so let bygones be bygones."

His smirking, cheek-resting expression was clearly mischievous. The innocent Gu Qing had no choice but to gently bring her legs together, toes lightly touching, and say in a coy, hesitant voice—

"because……"

"because?"

Chen Ming pulled her even closer, she almost buried herself in his arms, her face flushed like an apple, seemingly a little out of it. She covered her face with her hands, her voice barely audible—

"Because in TV dramas, 'to repay kindness by working like a cow or a horse' means marriage..."

"!!!"

Chen Ming's mouth dropped open as he watched Gu Qing's ears turn bright red. So that's why? There are indeed such tropes in TV dramas, where a hero saves a damsel in distress and then repays the favor, eventually leading to marriage…

That's pretty cheesy and cliché.

Chen Ming found it somewhat amusing at the time, but now that it's happening to him...

I can't laugh, I simply can't laugh.

It's incredibly frustrating.

Then, after thinking about it carefully, Gu Qing told him directly that she would do anything for him as long as he was willing to help her... Wait, was that considered a marriage proposal?

Why is the female CEO's marriage proposal so special?

Thinking about it this way, it seems like Gu Qing has won twice for free—saving her parents and gaining a husband? Everyone knows that a win-win situation means winning twice…

Then Chen Ming looked at Xiao Gu Qing in front of him and suddenly felt something was strange.

Does this count as being proposed to by a rich young girl?

Chapter 831 My Soul, My Beloved

Chen Ming opened his mouth, looking at Gu Qing, who was shyly peeking at him through her fingers. When she met his gaze, she seemed startled and hid her eyes again.

"..."

Chen Ming remained silent, then quietly took out his phone, looking at the reflective screen and observing his slightly cold face reflected in it.

Cerberus, nestled in his arms, looked puzzled, scratched his neck, and asked—

"Owner?"

Cerberus...

Chen Ming suddenly adopted a serious expression, causing Cerberus to blink.

He pursed his lips and asked—

Am I that handsome?

It might seem a bit arrogant, but it's something he's seriously considering right now. He already has so many girls pursuing him; you could write an encyclopedia of how many girls give away for free.

At first I didn't care much, but now Xiao Guqing is the same way... Shocked, am I handsome?

Cerberus, seeing its somewhat bewildered master, chuckled and licked his cheek, saying—

"Awesome! Master is the most handsome."

"..."

He glanced at his canine wife and realized how silly it had been to ask her that question. Cerberus was his dog, and now she was his lover; with such an intimate relationship, how could she not favor him?

As the saying goes, "My wife praises me because she loves me."

In the end, I still don't understand.

Perhaps Gu Qing's affection for him was simply because he existed in her heart; if it were anyone else, she would have called the police long ago.

He patted the little girl's head and said—

"Okay, TV dramas are all lies..."

As soon as he said that, Chen Ming sensed something was wrong. Sure enough, he immediately saw Gu Qing's expression as if she was about to cry, and quickly continued—

"No, that's not what I meant. I meant... even if the TV series is a lie, I won't lie to you..."

"Mr. Chen Ming..."

Xiao Guqing's expression immediately turned to one of emotion. She didn't know why, but upon seeing Chen Ming, she felt a surge of joy and excitement in her heart, wanting to be enveloped in his warmth.

Something seems a bit strange...

She lowered her head and said softly—

"That's great! With Mr. Chen Ming caring about me, I won't be alone anymore... eating alone, studying alone, going to school alone..."

Hearing her ethereal voice, Chen Ming was taken aback. Looking at her small body, he thought about what kind of childhood Gu Qing had experienced...

Her parents were so busy striving to give her the best of everything, fighting for her with such impatience that they didn't even pause for a moment to look at Gu Qing, whom they had left standing there, gazing at her longingly.

They knew Gu Qing only had thirty years left to live, or perhaps they wanted to use their busy work to forget that, and dared not face her innocent eyes, afraid of the pain that day would bring.

A dysfunctional family led to Gu Qing's tragic childhood.

Chen Ming lowered his eyes slightly, listening to Gu Qing's incessant narration.

She said that other children are picked up and dropped off from a young age, from kindergarten to primary school and even middle school, while she has always only had a driver. She always felt a little scared under the strange yet envious gazes of others.

During meals, the head chef would patiently ask her what she wanted to eat, making every effort to ensure a balanced diet while meeting her requests. He would then sit beside her as she ate, waiting for her feedback. She would usually say, "It's delicious, I'm full, thank you."
