Having just entered the Ghost Realm, Chi Yuan, having nothing better to do, decided to pay a proper visit to his cousin's palace.
"Demon Lord!"
The guards at the entrance of Shen Yulou's palace had already been instructed not to stop the Demon Lord if he came; they should simply lead him into the palace to wait.
"The Demon Lord can go in by himself. The Ghost King said he doesn't want anyone other than the Demon Lord to enter his palace."
The ghost servant looked at the subordinates following Chi Yuan with some difficulty.
Chi Yuan stopped his men from shouting "How dare you!" in time, waved them away, and went inside himself.
He quite liked the layout of Shen Yulou's palace; it was similar to his own aesthetic as a demon lord.
All I can say is that they have good taste.
Following the attendant, who turned left and right until they arrived at a palace gate, the attendant led Chi Yuan inside and then closed the gate, leaving Chi Yuan alone inside.
As soon as I sat down, my keen ears picked up the even breathing sounds coming from inside the beaded necklace; it sounded like someone was sleeping.
Where did these ghostly attendants lead him?
Chi Yuan couldn't help but frown.
I wonder if my cousin has a wife? Otherwise, I'd feel really awkward here.
I don't think so, do I? None of my gossipy subordinates have ever mentioned that my cousin has someone by his side!
As the Demon Lord pondered, his feet began to walk uncontrollably toward the beaded curtain, and his hand involuntarily rested on it.
Before lifting the beaded curtain, Chi Yuan's rationality made him pause for a moment, but not for long, and he lifted the curtain in the next second.
Slowing down her breathing and pace, she stared intently at the bulging shoulder on the bed.
Her long, ink-black hair was scattered across the red sheets, the vibrant color contrast drawing Chi Yuan's attention.
Only after confirming that the swollen adult figure was his cousin and that Shen Yulou was the only one on the bed did Chi Yuan feel relieved and walk over.
Reason told me I should stop, but my feet wouldn't obey me and went straight to Shen Yulou's bedside.
Until I saw Shen Yulou's rosy profile as she slept, and the little round face of the baby.
Peaceful, serene, and beautiful.
The only sounds in this quiet space were the even breathing of a large and a small man, which constantly reminded Chi Yuan of what he was doing.
"Awooo!"
Nestled between Shen Yulou's chin and chest, the tiny white ball of fluff let out a soft cry, but the adorable little voice made Chi Yuan's breath catch in his throat.
The bent-over back immediately straightened up.
But actually, Zai Zai didn't feel Chi Yuan's gaze. He just dreamed that his grandmother gave him delicious soup, so he was very happy.
After a while, when he found that there was no movement, Chi Yuan slowly bent down again.
This time, however, it was Shen Yulou who made the noise.
"Hug me... Hmph!"
Shen Yulou rolled over and hummed a few words in a soft voice like a kitten.
Before Chi Yuan could straighten his back again, Shen Yulou's arms were already wrapped around Chi Yuan's neck.
He pulled Chi Yuan's waist, which had just recovered, down again, and with a forceful pull of his arm, he almost made Chi Yuan fall onto him.
"Give me a hug! Give me a hug!"
Chi Yuan was utterly astonished by Shen Yulou's sudden display of coquettishness and pitifulness, a stark contrast to her usual charming and composed demeanor.
Was it because the person he liked wouldn't hug him? A pang of bitterness suddenly rose in Chi Yuan's heart.
That makes sense. Even after having a child, she didn't stay with her cousin. Does that mean he doesn't like Shen Yulou?
Chi Yuan imagined a million possibilities for his sister-in-law, and finally couldn't help but cup Shen Yulou's delicate chin in his burning palms.
Shen Yulou raised her face, seemingly unable to bear the excessive heat on her chin, and her murmurs became even more melodious.
The beauty's emotions then gradually progressed, from coquettishness and complaining to resentment, and finally she even began to sob softly.
"I love you, Demon Lord, I really love you so much, why can't you even look at me..."
As she spoke, the beautiful woman twisted her body under the red quilt, becoming more and more aggrieved.
