As Ning Chu led Black Bean back to the front door, she squatted down with a hint of worry, inspecting Black Bean’s mouth with great care.
“Your mouth is all oily, wipe it off—don’t let Mom see!”
“Mm-hmm!”
She took the tissue from Wen Yang, gently cupping Black Bean’s little face while wiping away the greasy shimmer and seasoning from the corners of their lips, and finally felt relieved.
If her mother found out, she would definitely get an earful.
“Don’t tell Mom.”
“I’m not stupid~”
Ning Chu couldn’t help but pinch Black Bean’s chubby little face before standing up to unlock the door.
As soon as she stepped inside, her eyes fell on her mother, who was sitting on the sofa, knitting while watching a drama.
“You’re back so late—it’s already nine-thirty!” Her mother frowned, glancing up at them. “Ning Xin, go wash up and get to bed.”
“I don’t want to take a shower…”
“What kid doesn’t take a shower? If you smell bad, no one will want to play with you.”
Black Bean pouted as if they could hang an oil pot from it. Their upright cat ears drooped, and their tail dragged on the ground, begrudgingly making their way to the bathroom.
Her mother silently rolled her eyes and waved Ning Chu over. “Come look at this, isn’t this pattern pretty?”
“What are you knitting?”
“A scarf for Ning Xin—it’ll be ready by winter.”
She proudly displayed a nearly complete cartoon cat pattern. “I’ll give it to her for her birthday.”
“I don’t have any gifts~”
Ning Chu pretended to pout, sitting close to her mother.
“At your age, you should know to buy gifts for a change?” Her mother smiled and pointed towards the kitchen. “I made you a bowl of black chicken soup, hurry and drink it before Ning Xin steals it!”
“Black chicken soup, huh…”
“It’s good for your health.”
Ning Chu never liked black chicken soup much, mainly because of its unappetizing dark appearance and lack of meat.
When it came to soup, she preferred eating the meat, and rib stew was quite delicious~
In the kitchen sat an oval pot specifically for making soup, where her mother would put ingredients at night, ensuring Black Bean would have nutritious soup the next morning.
“Ow, hot!”
As soon as Ning Chu touched the pot, she yelped and pulled her hand back instantly.
“I’ll get it.”
Wen Yang, hearing the noise, darted over to help her take out the black chicken soup.
Seeing this, Ning Chu lowered her voice. “Can you drink it for me? Thanks.”
“Aren’t you going to taste it?”
“Just smelling it, I know my mom threw in a bunch of weird herbs…it smells like medicine…” She made a disgusted face. “I’ve almost thrown up from it since I was little.”
It’s said she was born premature and had a weak constitution as a child, so her mother made sure she had all sorts of nutritious foods like milk, eggs, and medicinal soups.
As a result, she developed a strong aversion to boiled eggs and medicinal soups.
“It’s good for your body, and anyhow, you’ll share the benefits with me~”
The Little Succubus suddenly made a suggestive comment, and Wen Yang’s mind was flooded with wild thoughts. He shifted awkwardly, nervously touching his nose, and edged away a little.
But it was too late…
“Is it really that effective? You haven’t even had a sip yet, right?”
Ning Chu looked down at the gradually awakening little dragon and realized she was in trouble. She hurriedly backed out of the kitchen, warning, “Come out slowly—don’t let my mom see, or she’ll tease me again.”
“Okay.”
“What’s this? Did you finish it all?”
When her mother saw Ning Chu emerge from the kitchen, she rolled her eyes again. “Let me guess, you made Wen Yang drink it all?”
“No, I had a couple sips too~”
Ning Chu glanced at Black Bean, who had just come out of the bathroom, wet and fluffy. “Mom, do we have any pajamas? I forgot to bring mine back.”
After camping on the beach yesterday, it had been two days since she last showered. Even though her skin felt fine, she still felt itchy and uncomfortable all over.
“I’ll go get you some.”
In no time, her mother returned with a white silk pajama set consisting of a shirt and pants.
“These pajamas might be a bit small for you?”
Her mother was a head shorter than Ning Chu, who now towered over her in stature.
“It’s fine!”
Ning Chu rushed into the bathroom, closed the door, and immediately heard her mother conversing with Black Bean outside.
“Did you and your sister just go out for a late-night snack again?”
“No, I didn’t!”
“Really? I don’t quite believe you.”
“I swear, I was super good~”
Although the bathroom was small, it was still a lot bigger than the rental apartment. The shower with glass partitions was filled with pebbles, which made Ning Chu wince in pain as she stepped on them barefoot, shouting as she leaned against the wall.
She was used to the pebbles in the past, but after spending some time at school, her feet had become much more delicate.
After spending over ten minutes showering, drying off, and putting on her mother’s pajamas, Ning Chu quickly realized that the outfit was indeed a bit snug on her.
Raising her hands felt awkward, the shirt seemed to get stuck on her shoulders, and when buttoned up, it clung tightly to her waist, accentuating her curves.
The pants were also a little tight, gently squeezing her thighs and b*tt, emphasizing her shapely backside.
What started as a conservative pajama set ended up giving her a rather sultry vibe.
Thankfully, they were at home, with only her boyfriend around.
Ning Chu walked out of the bathroom, rubbing her hair with a towel, and complained to her mother, “Mom! These pajamas are too small!”
“Just make do with it, besides, there are no outsiders at home.”
“That’s true…but wearing something so snug without a bra…Wen Yang might not be able to control himself tonight.”
Thinking of how visibly frustrated Wen Yang must be yet unable to act…
Ning Chu’s lips curled into a mischievous smirk, her imagination running wild with thoughts of Wen Yang’s restless night, while she happily continued to dry her hair.
“Sister has such a big b*tt!”
Black Bean suddenly popped up, giving Ning Chu a playful smack on her behind.
She shot a fierce look at them, “You little brat! Why aren’t you in bed yet?!”
“Your chest is big too~”
The innocent tone only made Ning Chu’s cheeks flush with embarrassment. She awkwardly glanced down at her mountains, feeling more flustered, and lightly kicked Black Bean. “Go to sleep!”
“I want to sleep with my sister…”
“Scram!”
It was still only ten at night when Black Bean reluctantly trudged into the bedroom, while Ning Chu, wide awake, plopped down in front of her computer and started playing games.
After getting out of the shower, Wen Yang joined her in the bedroom, shutting the door behind him and setting a bottle of milk on the desk. “Here, your mom warmed it up for you. Drink it all so you can sleep early, don’t stay up too late.”
“Milk?” Ning Chu asked, her voice dripping with hidden temptation.
“Cut it out.” While he sounded serious, Wen Yang’s gaze kept drifting back to the Little Succubus’s chest, dry mouth and all.
Ning Chu got up from the computer, swaying her hips while flaunting her heart-shaped tail, leisurely crawling up to the head of the bed. “Not very sleepy~”
Wen Yang could clearly feel the implications of her teasing.
