Even though her father’s health wasn’t great and he ended up fleeing overnight on a train after being "drained dry," Ning Chu didn’t have to worry about that happening with her.
Although she’s a succubus, Wen Yang is the protagonist of a hentai story.
With that guy’s stamina, even a whole pantheon full of Sex Goddess might be devoured by him.
To this day, she still feared that the moment they did it for real, she would actually break.
Walking into the rented apartment with her mom, Ning Chu scanned the room nervously and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Wen Yang had come back early and cleaned the place up. The once slightly messy space was now neat and orderly, sparing her from a lecture.
Her mom’s eyes quickly landed on the yawning little black kitten perched at the edge of the bed.
Her eyes curved into a smile. “Aww~ What a cute little kitty~”
Black Bean raised her head and stared at her with confusion. After a moment’s hesitation, she asked:
“Grandma?”“……”
Ning Chu covered her face in exasperation.
She’d spent the entire weekend trying to correct Black Bean’s way of addressing them, but it hadn’t been going too well.
Her mom, however, didn’t mind at all. She pulled out a bag of beef jerky from her shoulder bag, and before she could even offer it, Black Bean had already leapt off the bed and scurried over, eyes full of longing.
Ning Chu bent over, hands on her knees, leveling with Black Bean. “From now on, you have to call her ‘Mom,’ and call me ‘Sister,’ got it?”
Black Bean stared at the beef jerky with starry eyes, nodding furiously. “Got it, Sister!”
Her mom chuckled. “Still just a greedy little kitten.”
She handed over the jerky and crouched down as well, using the same gentle, warm tone Ning Chu had:
“Black Bean, you’ll be coming home with me tonight, okay?”
Black Bean froze mid-unwrap, then slowly looked up, lips pressed tightly together—clearly struggling.
After a moment, she shoved the beef jerky back into her mom’s hands and darted back to the bed, diving under the covers.
“No!”
“Eh… we agreed on this earlier…” Ning Chu hadn’t expected a sudden rejection.
She turned to her mother, only to find her smiling even more fondly.
“She’s so adorable~ She’s way cuter than you were at that age.”
“I always wanted a daughter to raise and dote on…”
“Mom…”
“It’s fine. You think I can’t handle one little kitten?”
Her mom went over to try and win Black Bean over again. Meanwhile, Ning Chu turned to Wen Yang, who’d been quietly standing off to the side, clearly unsure what to do.
She suddenly remembered her mom’s earlier warning—
"He’s too handsome, it’s easy for him to be stolen by other women…"
Hmm… not that she was really worried about that.
Back when Wen Yang was still single, plenty of gorgeous girls threw themselves at him, and he didn’t even blink. He’d passed through all sorts of trials. Now, he had a beautiful and, ahem, charming girlfriend, plus real emotional ties. The chance of him cheating was basically nil.
But then again, he was a hentai protagonist…
Ning Chu sized him up from head to toe, her gaze making Wen Yang’s scalp tingle.
Seeing that his girlfriend mother’s attention had finally shifted away from him, Wen Yang cautiously tiptoed over to his girlfriend’s side and whispered,
“Why were you looking at me so weird?”
“My mom said you’re handsome…”
He let out a relieved sigh. “Oh, good.”
“…and that it makes you likely to cheat.”
His mood did a complete 180—like he’d just been flung off a rollercoaster. His expression collapsed.
“I—do I look like someone who would cheat?” he said indignantly.
“For now, no…”
“What do you mean for now?!” he huffed. “I would never do something like that!”
Well, she had raised him herself, from a character on paper into a real person—so Ning Chu did believe him.
She rolled her eyes and shuffled a bit closer, whispering,
“You need to be more proactive. Try to win my mom over a bit. Don’t just stand there like an idiot.”
This was Wen Yang’s first time meeting the parents—and it had been a total ambush—so of course he had no idea what to do.
“Then… how about I treat Mom to a nice dinner at a hotel tonight?”
"Mom..." Ning Chu’s mouth twitched slightly as she lowered her head and transferred 200 yuan to Wen Yang.
“Here, take this—don’t risk running out when it’s time to pay.”
“This…”
He hesitated.
“Take it. It’d be even more embarrassing if you didn’t have enough. You can pay me back later.”
Wen Yang nodded, a wave of mixed emotions rising in his chest. He went quiet, not sure what to say.
He was just some poor guy who had to borrow money to go to school. What had he done to deserve all this?
Ning Chu gave him a little nudge on the shoulder.
Snapping out of his thoughts, Wen Yang quickly adjusted his mood and stepped forward with a flattering smile.
“Auntie, it’s almost dinner time—why don’t we all go out and have a nice meal together?”
Before her mom could say anything, Black Bean’s eyes lit up as she shouted,
“Go out to eat! Go out to eat! I want meat!”
“Alright, we’ll get meat~” her mom said, pinching Black Bean’s cheek.
In just a few minutes, Black Bean had already warmed up a lot to her grandmother—no longer nearly as resistant as before.
Ning Chu’s anxiety finally began to ease. She asked,
“Mom, when are you planning to head back?”
“What, trying to kick me out already?”
“No, I mean—if you’re going to stay the night, I’ll book you a room at a hotel.”
“I could just stay here with you, couldn’t I?”
Ning Chu nodded awkwardly. “That’s fine… if you don’t mind it being cramped.”
The problem was, Wen Yang’s clothes and toiletries were all in the apartment. Her mom might assume they were already living together.
But they weren’t—Wen Yang only stayed over occasionally. That wasn’t the same as cohabiting.
“This beef jerky was for you, silly. I bought it specially. Why are you giving it back to me?”
Her mom’s voice was especially gentle with Black Bean, like she was coaxing a child. She even used cutesy baby talk:
“Here, have a little snack to tide you over. Later you’ll go eat dinner with your big brother and sister~”
Black Bean glanced nervously at Ning Chu. Seeing her nod, she finally chomped into the jerky—Only to immediately get her tooth bumped by how tough it was.
“Just keep it in your mouth and chew slowly,”
Her mom said, rubbing the furry ears on top of Black Bean’s head. Then she looked up and asked,
“Ning Chu, how much do you pay for this apartment a month?”
“Seven hundred, not including utilities.”
“That’s pretty expensive.”
Her mom stood up and finally had a chance to take in the apartment properly.
“You keep it clean. How often do you tidy up?”
“Every day!” Ning Chu said righteously. “I always clean before I shower and go to bed.”
In reality, she only did it once in a while—whenever she remembered. Most of the time, Wen Yang handled the cleaning, and she just helped a little.
“Not bad.” Her mom walked around the small room, eventually opening a window.
“Make sure to air it out regularly. The room smells stuffy—nothing’s circulating.”
“Smell?”
Ning Chu froze, sniffed the air, and finally picked up on a faint sweet scent lingering in the room—it was her own succubus fragrance.
“Auntie, do you have anything in mind for dinner?” Wen Yang asked with a big, eager smile.
“I’m good with anything, whatever’s fine.”
Ugh… “whatever’s fine” was the hardest to deal with.
Wen Yang decided to take a roundabout approach and looked to Black Bean.
“How about beef hotpot?”
The moment she heard “meat,” Black Bean cheered,
“YES!”
