Living Dangerously with a 999-Year-Old Gumiho – Chapter 91

Hyun’s face flushed as he struggled to find his words. He couldn’t bring himself to speak directly to Yoonhwa and instead watched her closely.

Upon seeing Hyun’s flustered expression, Yoonhwa suddenly became aware of her own attire.

Looking at Hyun’s bewildered face and his hesitant speech, Yoonhwa realized her situation.

Her face turned beet red, overwhelmed by a mix of embarrassment and confusion.

She hurriedly covered herself with her hands while holding Nomi with one arm.

Yoonhwa quickly picked up Nomi and dashed towards the bathroom.

Nomi seemed to find the situation amusing and burst into giggles.

“Wow, Yoonhwa unni, you’re so fast!”

Before shutting the bathroom door, Yoonhwa glanced at Hyun, her gaze filled with a mix of apology and playful mischief.

“Heh, Hyun, sorry! I’ll be right back!”

Hyun couldn’t respond to Yoonhwa’s words; he just smiled faintly and nodded.

After Yoonhwa disappeared into the bathroom, he was left alone for a moment, lost in thought. Hyun felt a mix of joy from Yoonhwa and Nomi, along with some embarrassment and confusion.

But he soon gathered himself and started tidying up the house.

He used a towel to wipe the water off the floor.

As soon as Yoonhwa and Nomi entered the bathroom, they began to remove their wet pajamas.

Yoonhwa gently set Nomi down and started taking off her small clothes piece by piece.

When Yoonhwa tossed aside her wet silk pajamas, her figure became visible.

Nomi paused for a moment to look up at Yoonhwa.

She appeared momentarily surprised by Yoonhwa’s beauty and elegance, but soon her face returned to a familiar playful expression.

“Yoonhwa unni, you’re so pretty!”

“I want to be pretty like you!” Nomi laughed.

Yoonhwa smiled shyly at Nomi’s words.

“You’re already cute enough and pretty~.”

Yoonhwa and Nomi stood facing each other under the shower.

Yoonhwa turned on the shower first, adjusting it for a gentle flow of warm water.

At first, Nomi was slightly startled by the water, but quickly adapted when she saw Yoonhwa’s reassuring smile.

Yoonhwa let warm water flow over Nomi’s little shoulders, speaking kindly, “It’s not too hot, right? Nomi?”

Nomi gleefully flailed her arms as if she were playing in the water. “Yes! It’s warm, unni!”

Yoonhwa poured a little shampoo into her hands and said, “Let’s wash your hair first~.”

Nomi giggled as she applied the shampoo to her hair, mimicking Yoonhwa.

Yoonhwa gently rinsed Nomi’s hair, reminding her, “Be careful not to get water in your eyes!”

After rinsing her hair, Nomi began to wash her small body with the soap Yoonhwa handed her.

Yoonhwa also used soap to cleanse her own body.

“Wow! It’s like a cloud!” Nomi exclaimed in wonder, enjoying some bubbly playtime with Yoonhwa.

Nomi cautiously approached from behind and grabbed the soap in her small hand.

Creating bubbles with her tiny hands, she lovingly scrubbed Yoonhwa’s back.

“Unni—I’ll wash your back!” Nomi said with a bright smile.

Yoonhwa leaned into Nomi’s gentle touch under the warm water. “Heh, that feels nice~ thanks.”

Yoonhwa smiled at Nomi’s playful actions.

While washing Yoonhwa’s back, Nomi splashed water around playfully.

“Unni, look! It’s like magic!”

She laughed as she threw the soap bubbles into the air.

Yoonhwa chuckled at Nomi’s innocent delight.

Carefully washing Yoonhwa’s back, Nomi enjoyed the warm atmosphere between them.

As the shower came to an end, Yoonhwa and Nomi stood facing each other, both brightly smiling.

Nomi’s playful act of washing Yoonhwa’s back deepened the warm bond they shared.

Yoonhwa turned off the shower and handed Nomi a towel. “Okay, it’s time to rinse off. You’re all clean now~.”

Nomi shook her bubbly head and laughed.

Then she began to dry off with the towel Yoonhwa handed her.

Yoonhwa, drying herself off, smiled at the pure joy reflected in Nomi’s movements and expressions.

In the happy atmosphere, Yoonhwa shouted out the door, “Hyun—! Please bring us our pajamas!”

Her voice was filled with excitement and satisfaction.

Outside the bathroom, Hyun could hear the sounds of laughter and Yoonhwa’s call.

He cautiously approached the bathroom door, holding two pairs of pajamas.

In his hands were fluffy, warm pajamas for Yoonhwa and Nomi.

Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Hyun closed his eyes tightly in case of any surprises.

He knocked softly on the door with a gentle voice. “Y-Yoonhwa, Nomi, I brought the pajamas…!”

From inside the bathroom, amidst the sounds of splashing water and laughter, Yoonhwa’s voice called back.

“Thanks, Hyun! I’ll catch it~.”

Yoonhwa and Nomi took the pajamas that Hyun handed through the gap in the door and closed it tightly.

Hyun let out a sigh of relief, finally opening his eyes.

He stood in front of the bathroom door for a moment but decided to leave, trusting they would change without any trouble.

Inside, Yoonhwa and Nomi helped each other change into their pajamas. Nomi beamed happily in the cute pajamas she received from Yoonhwa.

“Unni, it’s a yellow pajama!”

Yoonhwa smiled at Nomi’s outfit and nodded, “So pretty, Nomi. It suits you perfectly!”

Yoonhwa playfully smiled at Nomi’s hair.

With a wave of her hand, she summoned a breeze, instantly making Nomi’s hair dry and soft.

Nomi cheered at the astonishing change, “Wow, unni!”

Yoonhwa smiled at Nomi’s joyful reaction.

She knew now it was her turn.

Gazing at her own beautiful tails, Yoonhwa waved her hand again.

A magical energy enveloped her tails, wrapping them in softness and sheen.

Her long hair also dried magically, falling into a natural and graceful style.

Nomi’s eyes sparkled at the sight.

The two demons left the bathroom and headed to the living room.

Yoonhwa’s tails swayed gently as she walked, and Nomi couldn’t help but keep staring at how beautiful it was.

When Hyun saw them return to the living room, he gaped at their transformed appearances.

“Wow~ you both look so fluffy!”

As Yoonhwa and Nomi entered, they settled onto the sofa, now dressed in their cozy, warm pajamas.

Hyun had already turned on the TV, and a popular drama was playing on the screen during the afternoon timeslot.

Yoonhwa sat at one end of the sofa, wrapping her tails comfortingly around herself, while Nomi happily settled beside her, eagerly watching the screen.

“Unni, this looks so fun!” Nomi exclaimed excitedly.

Yoonhwa replied with a smile, “Oh— it really does!”

The two demons focused on the TV, enjoying a delightful afternoon together.

They whispered about the unfolding drama from time to time, while Hyun watched their conversation with a smile.

In this peaceful and happy atmosphere, time passed swiftly.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the front door that startled all three of them.

Knock, knock.

The two demons and one human looked at each other in surprise.

Hyun asked curiously, “Is that Seojin? She could have just brought the umbrella later.”

Hyun stood up and walked toward the door.

Yoonhwa and Nomi exchanged curious glances, listening closely to the TV sounds while Hyun opened the door.

When Hyun opened the door, he saw Roji standing outside, holding a perfume bottle in one hand and a white umbrella in the other.

She looked stunningly beautiful even in the rain.

“Hi~”

Roji greeted softly, looking at Hyun.

“Big sis?!”

Hyun exclaimed in surprise.

His expression showed both joy and a hint of bewilderment.

Roji smiled and asked cautiously, “Can I come in for a bit?”

Hyun hesitated for a moment before nodding.

“Uh, okay…!”

Roji folded her umbrella and stepped inside.

Her eyes quickly scanned the living room before landing on Yoonhwa and Nomi.

Yoonhwa felt a bit tense at Roji’s sudden appearance.

Roji’s gaze held a firm curiosity, as if she was searching for something deeper.

When Roji spotted Yoonhwa’s tails, she feigned surprise and smiled playfully.

“It looks like you don’t need to hide your tail. That’s fascinating~.”

Yoonhwa, startled by the realization that her tails were visible, swiftly pulled them in.

But her eyes reflected a late understanding of the situation.

Nomi quietly observed it all, feeling Roji’s gaze shift to her, which made her anxious.

Nomi’s reaction was even more timid; she slightly hid behind Yoonhwa.

Roji approached Yoonhwa without a hint of hesitation, smiling all the while.

She moved confidently and curiously toward Yoonhwa.

As she got closer, the scent of her perfume teased Yoonhwa’s senses.

That scent was so rich and intense, it almost completely masked any human odor.

“You’re really a Nine-Tailed Fox, aren’t you?”

Roji asked directly.

Her tone was lively with an underlying provocative hint.

Yoonhwa was momentarily taken aback by Roji’s straightforward question.

Roji’s gaze felt penetrating, and her curious smile suggested she would accept no other response.

Roji took another step forward and asked Yoonhwa, “If you’re a Nine-Tailed Fox, your sight and sense of smell must be exceptional, right?”

Her words were infused with an expectation about Yoonhwa’s abilities.

Yoonhwa replied cautiously to Roji’s inquiry, “Y-yes…”

Roji seemed pleased with Yoonhwa’s careful answer, smiling brightly.

Hyun and Nomi exchanged glances, both startled by Roji approaching Yoonhwa.

Roji looked into Yoonhwa’s eyes and opened the cap on the perfume bottle.

With a gentle smile, she sprayed a bit of perfume onto Yoonhwa.

The scent quickly filled the living room, the rich, sweet fragrance stimulating Yoonhwa’s senses.

Yoonhwa’s face gradually turned red, and strange reactions began to surface within her body.

Her eyes sparkled, and her breath quickened a notch.

The effect of Roji’s perfume was far more intense than anticipated.

Hyun, too, caught a whiff of the perfume Roji had sprayed, and his gaze lingered on her.

Roji appeared even more enchanting and lovely to him now.

The fragrance clouded Hyun’s thoughts, nurturing a peculiar emotional stir regarding Roji.

However, Nomi did not like the scent Roji had sprayed.

She scrunched her face and said, “Ew, that smell is weird!”

She stepped back a little from Roji and Yoonhwa.

Although Nomi found the perfume sweet and strong, it felt somewhat artificial and unnatural.

Yoonhwa felt confused by Roji’s actions and the perfume’s effects, unsure of how to respond.

She clutched her tails tightly, avoiding Roji’s gaze and looking elsewhere.

But despite herself, Yoonhwa couldn’t help but keep glancing at Roji, drawn in by the perfume.

Because of the fragrance, a vague fondness for Roji began to sprout in Yoonhwa’s heart.

It was an emotion she had never imagined feeling before, but Roji’s perfume manipulated her emotions, intensifying her attraction to Roji.

Yoonhwa’s eyes sparkled brighter, unable to avert her eyes from Roji’s smile and voice.

Every movement and action of Roji felt even more alluring to Yoonhwa.

Though Yoonhwa couldn’t comprehend why her heart raced, just being near Roji made her heart flutter, hanging onto every word she spoke.

Meanwhile, Hyun was also getting caught up in the enchanting scent of Roji’s perfume.

The fragrance clouded Hyun’s mind, making everything about her appear more charming.

It felt as if he were trapped in Roji’s captivating gaze, ensnared by her enchanting smile.

His thoughts were completely filled with Roji, and his feelings for her deepened progressively.

Nomi was bewildered watching Yoonhwa and Hyun being entranced by Roji’s perfume.

To Nomi, the scent felt unnatural, and she couldn’t understand why Yoonhwa and Hyun were changing in such an odd way.

Though confused, Nomi eagerly sought a way to help Yoonhwa and Hyun.

Roji observed Yoonhwa and Hyun’s reactions with a satisfied smile.

She knew exactly the effect her perfume had on them, and everything was unfolding according to her plan.

Roji took Yoonhwa’s and Hyun’s hands, gesturing for them to follow her.

Under the influence of the perfume, Hyun and Yoonhwa were sinking deeper into Roji’s allure.

It seemed as though they had lost all power to resist, following Roji wherever she led.
