571. Lily’s Spring
As night fell, the fireworks outside the restaurant went off with a bang, and the wedding guests trickled out one by one.
The bride and groom stayed last, making sure to arrange for Ning Chu and Lily, these long-distance guests, to check into the hotel.
“We’re leaving, right?”
Yan Xinya hugged Li Han’s arm, showcasing her little girl charm, bidding farewell to the few remaining folks in the hotel.
“It’s your wedding night~” Qian Qian teased, raising an eyebrow at Wolf Girl, “Mind the kids, okay?”
“I’m not stupid! Ning Chu, am I leaving?”
Ning Chu looked a bit dazed and nodded slowly.
She followed Wen Yang back to their hotel room, plopped herself onto the small sofa, and turned to gaze at the night view outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
That boisterous and energetic Wolf Girl had now gotten married, becoming a proper wife. Soon, she’d probably be a mother too.
It was hard to believe that Yan Xinya managed to maintain her composure throughout the day—like a Husky who had settled down for a day without tearing the house apart.
“We should have had a wedding back then; we weren’t too poor for it.” She muttered sourly, “After so many years together, some relatives still think I’m single! When I went home for the New Year, my aunt was trying to set me up on blind dates.”
Wen Yang leaned down behind her, resting his elbows on the back of the sofa, hands draped over her slender shoulders: “You weren’t really keen on that back then.”
“Naïve back then~ But I suddenly feel like a wedding is pretty important for a woman.”
Having once been annoyed by wedding ceremonies and only knowing how to eat and drink at friends’ weddings, Ning Chu had completely changed her mind now.
She could see how happy Yan Xinya was today and could guess that the groom was in for a rough night.
“Are you saying we should have a big one then?”
Ning Chu quickly shook her head in refusal: “No, just a simple one is fine! Preferably one where we can earn some money back from the gift money~”
“You really never want to suffer a loss, huh?”
“I need to at least earn back everything I’ve given away in gift money over the years!”
Wen Yang rubbed her little head, nodding along: “Right, we gotta earn it back… How about we switch to a hotel with a garden? An outdoor wedding sounds nice?”
“Why not just rent a cruise ship for the wedding? I checked, it costs about ten thousand for one hour!”
“Could be considered, huh?”
Ning Chu turned around and punched Wen Yang lightly: “Consider what? With that money, I could get a really nice wedding gown made!”
Wen Yang dramatically howled, then playfully massaged her shoulders to help her relax.
God knows where this guy learned his massage techniques; just a few minutes of it made her relax her shoulder muscles, and she comfortably closed her eyes, humming softly on the sofa.
The sticky, melodious humming was almost too much for Wen Yang.
“I’m tired.”
She yawned and rubbed her weary eyes.
Since finding out she was pregnant, she hadn’t enjoyed the rich taste of milk for a week.
During early pregnancy, not only was she unable to, um, be intimate, even the personal comforts were a no-go. This had made her entirely afraid to face Wen Yang, worried that too much intimacy would stir up uncontrollable desires.
Plus, the hormonal changes during pregnancy had visibly taken a toll on her skin.
“Should I squeeze in with Lily? Xinya shouldn’t have booked us a room with a king-size bed.”
Wen Yang paused, looking at her with sparkling eyes and casually suggested: “How about we use our hands instead?”
“No way! I wouldn’t be able to hold back… don’t even bring that up!”
Ning Chu blushed and covered her ears, shaking her head rapidly. Just a slight temptation, and her body was getting restless.
She hadn’t eaten well for a week and was feeling pretty starved.
No walking the tightrope here! If she gave in even once, there’d be countless more times.
Even if one time didn’t impact pregnancy, many could.
Wen Yang sighed in disappointment: “Alright, fine, fine.”
Ever since they had Little Succubus, this was the first time he felt this pent-up.
“Go handle it yourself…” Ning Chu grumbled, getting up and fleeing the room.
Lily and Qian Qian’s room was just down the hall, a double occupancy room.
After knocking twice, he heard soft footsteps, and when Qian Qian opened the door, she looked a bit surprised to see Ning Chu still in her clothes: “What are you doing here?”
“I’m sleeping with you guys tonight.”
“You didn’t argue with Wen Yang, did you?!”
Ning Chu entered the room holding a change of clothes, explaining, “I can’t let Wen Yang touch me now that I’m pregnant.”
“Oh~ The Succubus is actually holding back?”
“Lily’s almost thirty and can hold back, so why can’t I?”
Although the difficulty levels between them were entirely different—Ning Chu had already tasted the essence of manhood, while Lily still got her satisfaction from toys—her threshold had definitely risen, pushing the boundaries of what satisfied her.
Just then, as Lily was removing her makeup, she popped out of the bathroom, hurling a disposable toothbrush at Ning Chu: “You’re only thirty!”
Qian Qian shot Ning Chu a knowing look at the magic devil’s embarrassment.
“What’s going on?”
“Come here, come here~”
Ning Chu strolled over to the floor-to-ceiling window, stretching sleepily, when she suddenly heard Qian Qian lean in closer, her voice hushed with gossiping excitement: “Did you see that best man today?!”
“Nope.”
“Your eyes are only for Wen Yang!”
That’s nonsense; during the wedding, her eyes were on Yan Xinya in her wedding gown. At that moment, the Wolf Girl was the most beautiful woman in the world.
Before she could retort, Qian Qian leaned in closer, whispering: “That best man is super handsome! He’s Li Han’s best buddy since childhood, just as good-looking as Wen Yang!”
“Not as good-looking as Wen Yang!”
Ning Chu pondered how she could have possibly missed such a big hunk.
“You’re just seeing it through a lover’s eyes… and that muscle~ I was drooling!”
Qian Qian wiped her imaginary drool from the nonexistent drool on her mouth and excitedly slapped the armrest of the sofa: “I saw Lily staring at him! Her face was beet red!”
Now, all of Ning Chu’s drowsiness disappeared, replaced by a sudden burst of energy.
But she hesitated and asked: “But does Lily only care about looks…?”
Qian Qian nodded vigorously: “The bulge in his pants is definitely not small.”
“I meant her PhD! Isn’t she supposed to look for someone with at least a master’s degree? Otherwise, they won’t have anything in common, right?” Ning Chu couldn’t help rolling her eyes at the petite magical girl, “You were always the purest among us!”
She wanted to bring up the size issue but got interrupted instead.
“Hey, enough about me…”
“If I knew which room that handsome guy was in, I’d bet Lily would be the one to sneak in at night, getting on board before she pays the fare~”
“Qian Qian.”
Qian Qian was having a blast, but a cold, emotionless voice suddenly sounded from behind, sending chills down her spine.
Embarrassed, she turned around, only to find Lily standing there, looking at her disdainfully as if she were trash.
“Lily…”
“I asked, he’s a staunch bachelor.” Lily said coldly, turning to grab her change of clothes, “I’m going to take a shower.”
“What’s wrong with being a bachelor! With Lily’s beauty, who could resist her charm? I don’t believe there’s a man who wouldn’t be tempted by Lily!”
Ning Chu didn’t join in on the ruckus, thoughtfully watching Lily’s back.
What’s with this Succubus clenching her legs?
