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

That's all I can say.

She could never tell outsiders what happened at school, what she was thinking, or how many troubles she had; she only wanted to talk to her closest family members.

They always seemed busy, and every time they called, they only asked how the exams were going before quickly hanging up. She was sensitive and intelligent, and sensibly avoided bothering them too much.

She spoke softly for a long time, then suddenly realized what she had said, looked at Chen Ming who was listening quietly and attentively, and said somewhat shyly—

"Mr. Chen Ming is truly incredible..."

"How to say?"

"It felt like we were very close, like we could talk about anything. There was a voice telling me that Mr. Chen Ming was the best person."

Gu Qing's eyes sparkled, but it made him feel a little depressed. He smiled and slowly pulled her into his arms, much to her surprise.

“Mr. Chen Ming…”

Feeling his strong embrace, a hint of confusion flashed in Xiao Guqing's eyes. This feeling stirred up the emotions that had been hidden deep in her heart, and her heart raced.

He rested his face against her neck, gently stroking her back, his eyes closed, and spoke softly—

"It must have been tough, right? You were carrying it all by yourself, with no one else knowing your anxieties and fears... You put on a strong front, but you're more vulnerable than anyone else..."

The desperate voice of Gu Qing, when he was taken away, still seemed to echo in his mind. He had given her hope, and then plunged her into despair...

"Sorry……"

He bit his lower lip, his tone tinged with sadness.

Gu Qing's hand trembled helplessly behind his back. After a long while, she gently placed it on his back, stroking his body. For some reason, she felt like crying and said—

Why apologize?

"Because I made you feel uneasy, I made you sad."

"That's not true, I'm very happy."

Gu Qing, petite as she was, hugged him tightly, her hands pressed against his back, and said—

"I wasn't this sad before because I didn't know what happiness was. You made me realize that happiness is so wonderful, even though it comes with sadness, but I won't regret it..."

"Gu Qing..."

He held her tightly and whispered in her ear—

"I am back."

Tears welled up in Gu Qing's eyes, blurring her vision. She closed her eyes, seemingly trying to stop the tears from spilling out, but she couldn't stop them at all.

Her lips trembled, revealing a strange smile that also sounded like a cry, as she spoke—

"I've been waiting for you for so long..."

My dearest, every minute and every second since you left has been the most agonizing torment for me. But if this is the price of love, then I am willing to bear it.

Your hell has taken over my soul; I can only sink deeper and deeper.

"Well……"

Cerberus struggled to free himself from his embrace, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at the entangled, foolish couple, shaking his head slightly.

If you're going to acknowledge each other, why put the dog in the middle? It must be very uncomfortable for the dog to be squeezed like that. Can't you consider the dog's feelings a little more?

This isn't how you abuse dogs.

Cerberus felt a little resentful, but being a sensible dog, he didn't disturb their reunion. However, seeing him hugging another girl, he seemed to sense a change in his behavior.

There's a feeling of envy, a reluctance to be left behind.

Is this what jealousy between lovers is like? Before, she was only jealous of dogs and fighting with the big fox. Now she's on a different level.

Cerberus picked up his two front legs and nodded with a hint of pride.

Chapter 832 She and her daughter entered a dream together

"We must save my husband!"

"Save my husband!"

"We must take the Queen back!"

"Reclaim the Queen!"

……

"..."

She wore a white top with cutouts at the side, revealing her beautiful figure, and white fitted pants that showed off her ankles.

Wearing strappy sandals that revealed her pretty toes, her pale eyes held a captivating charm as she watched a group of "young girls" engaged in a heated discussion, occasionally raising their fists excitedly as if it were some kind of pep rally...

Unlike their lack of composure, she possessed a mature charm and refrained from joining the conversation.

The main problem is that she can't get a word in edgewise, and she can't fight either. Although she's a five-pointed magical girl, which should be a rare strength, she's completely unusable in combat.

She's not as good at fighting as Xiaoxiao.

"The Queen is ours! Any enemy who tries to take her away must be defeated and hung on the cross for the Holy Light to punish!"

Hey, hey, hey, aren't these angels going a bit too far? She looked at the blue-eyed angel who was practically standing on the table, his righteous and persuasive demeanor fully stirring up everyone's emotions.

This seems to be one of Gabriel's subjects, right? It seems like this guy is quite adept at being a rebel... His ability to incite such conflict is truly something to worry about for his king, Gabriel.

I always feel like these angels are a bit obsessed. Is it just my imagination? They get excited and blush whenever the word "queen" is mentioned.

Is this a meeting of angels? It feels more like an evil gathering.

The discussion was going well until the task was assigned to the angels, at which point things started to go strange.

I also seemed to hear something like "whoever gets the king first becomes king"...

I feel like these angels with ulterior motives are really unreliable. How can you call yourselves holy angels? Your minds are full of Mingming. It's shameful.

Her mind was filled with thoughts of her nemesis, and she looked at the angels, shaking her head involuntarily.

"aunt."

Suddenly she heard someone call her name. She turned around and saw Lucifer walking towards her, his red eyes now very calm.

My aunt smiled and said—

"It seems there are no problems now. Unlike before, you are much more reassuring."

Even though her husband was taken away, she didn't lose her temper and throw a tantrum like last time. Instead, she realized what was most important: nothing else mattered until she brought him back, including her own anger.

Lucifer's expression changed slightly, and he lowered his eyes a little, saying—

"I failed because I was too arrogant. I won't fail this time."

"very good."

Aunt smiled and nodded, trying her best to be a good elder. Her quirky and clever side was mostly only shown in front of him.

Now she's completely suppressed by him, so she can't be naughty at all, or she'll get a lesson she'll never forget and feel ashamed of.

Lucifer said—

"Please ask your aunt to help look after her at home. Is the girl who fainted someone your aunt knows?"

"Yes, that's Senior Hong. Don't worry, leave it to me."

Watching over the house is also a very important task, as my aunt knows.

Lucifer looked around.

Aunt said—

"Are you looking for Xiaoxiao? She seems to be taking a nap with Liuli, and the landlady is there too."

“Ruri too…”

Lucifer frowned slightly, his red eyes seeming to have thought of something. He nodded and said—

"Okay, then we'll leave it to Auntie and set off now."

"Hmm...should I prepare some food for you guys when you get back? Instead of saying things like we'll be home together for dinner soon like before?"

With a smile on her face, Aunt covered her rosy lips with her hand and looked at Lucifer's slightly flushed and embarrassed expression, feeling somewhat pleased.

My aunt's quirky personality is still there.

This is a deliberate joke about Lucifer making a promise before. Lucifer had confidently said something like he would soon be able to take him home for dinner, but he ended up being proven wrong.

Lucifer avoided his aunt's gaze and said—

"I'll be going now if there's nothing else. Afu, Dongyi, Xiaohei, let's go."

Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael have already gone there to prepare. Opening the Abyss is no simple matter; it has always been mysterious and unpredictable, and we need to be careful.

"Huh? I still have to go?"

Dong Yi's miserable expression: Can't you guys stop making things difficult for a good-for-nothing like this?

The universally acknowledged loser now has a guy who firmly believes in her strength: Wendy, whom she defeated with rock-paper-scissors.

Wendy, seeing Dong Yi's lazy demeanor, inwardly praised his masterful skills, grabbed her hand, and led her outside, saying—

"Don't be modest, we need your help, please do!"

"I didn't... I'm really not a big shot..."

Dong Yi looked sad. "How did I, a useless sword immortal who was supported by my husband, suddenly become a big shot?"

This is not her being modest!

Sending her to fight in the Abyss would be fatal!

Dongyi tried to explain, but it was no use; he was simply dragged away.

"..."

Watching her retreating figure, her aunt felt a pang of pity. She was clearly a complete loser, yet she was always forced to face powerful enemies…

And yet they still won all of them.

That's pretty surreal.
