Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Vol. 1 - Chapter 62 - Fell for It

Luo Ruying parted ways with Ning Yechen and entered the compound carrying Luo Hongye.

Seeing the door open, Luo Ruying was puzzled but just assumed Qiang Se and the others had forgotten to close it.

After entering the courtyard, she saw Yue Qingyou's beautiful figure and realized someone was here.

Luo Ruying glanced at Yue Qingyou and turned to look at Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se lying on the ground. She asked in confusion, “What's wrong? Why are you lying on the ground?”

“Madam, Miss, you're back. W-we slipped and fell on the ground,” Qiang Se explained sheepishly.

Yue Qingyou quietly took back her order. Qiang Se and the other two regained their freedom and hurriedly stood up.

They looked at Yue Qingyou in fear.

If she wanted to kill them, all it would take was a word.

The three of them were certainly careless to fall at the same time.

Luo Ruying did not take it to heart. Instead, she looked at Yue Qingyou and asked, “And you are?”

Ever since she came home with Luo Hongye, Yue Qingyou kept staring at them with joy and love in her eyes.

She must be the Demon Lord’s wife, the queen of the Demon Realm.

She was gorgeous and a perfect match for the Demon Lord!

In that case, the adorable child in her arms had to be the princess of the Demon Realm!

She was adorable, simply adorable!

She looked just like the Demon Lord when he was a child!

She was happy, extremely happy!

Yue Qingyou smiled uncontrollably, revealing absolute joy on her face.

At a time like this, she should remain graceful and composed, but she could not suppress herself!

However, Yue Qingyou’s smile looked extremely suspicious to Luo Ruying.

This woman kept her eyes on Luo Hongye right from the start, showing unconcealed exhilaration and happiness in her eyes.

Is she…? Luo Ruying frowned slightly and raised her guard.

Yue Qingyou did not take Luo Ruying’s reaction to heart. She walked over to her gracefully, crossed her legs with her hand touching her chest, and bowed slightly in an elegant greeting. “Greetings, Madam, Princess.”

“Madam, princess?” Luo Ruying held Luo Hongye in her arms a little tighter as she looked at Yue Qingyou quizzically.

Yue Qingyou was about to speak when Ning Yechen came back anxiously.

The moment he caught sight of Yue Qingyou, a serious look appeared on his face. She’s really here!

Ning Yechen quickly stepped up to block Luo Ruying from Yue Qingyou and asked, “W-what are you doing here?”

“Yechen, do you know this woman?” Luo Ruying asked before Yue Qingyou could speak.

“Dear, s-she used to work for my family! We haven't seen each other in a long time.” He quickly came up with the best answer he could think of.

“I see.” Luo Ruying scrutinized Yue Qingyou.

Even though she had learned from Ning Yechen that he came from a good family, she did not expect his servants to be so beautiful and graceful.

Meng Niu, Qiang Se, and Bai Yun were already astoundingly good-looking. Unexpectedly, this woman far surpassed them in appearance and temperament!

Yue Qingyou gave off a cool and elegant vibe and did not seem like an ordinary household staff at all.

In all aspects, Yue Qingyou was not inferior to Luo Ruying.

Yue Qingyou was smart, so she quickly knew why Ning Yechen wanted to prevent her from speaking.

This woman did not seem to know about the Demon Lord’s true identity.

She could even sense a faint aura of the Heavenly Realm from Luo Ruying!

She was from the Heavenly Realm!

No wonder the Demon Lord wanted to conceal his identity!

Yue Qingyou found it unfathomable that the Demon Lord would pick a woman from the Heavenly Realm to be his wife, but she had no objections.

As long as the Demon Lord was willing to marry and start a family, she did not mind who it was at all!

Even if he found a pig monster, she would have no objections whatsoever!

Realizing Ning Yechen did not want to expose his identity, Yue Qingyou quickly bowed and introduced herself, “Hello, I am Yue Qingyou. I used to be Young Master’s personal maid. He sent for me to attend to you and the young miss.”

“Sent for you?” Ning Yechen was stunned.

He did not recall giving any such order!

From the looks of it, Yue Qingyou wanted to stay!

“Is that so?” Luo Ruying turned to look at Ning Yechen beside her.

This is bad, he thought.

If she continued with this lie, he would have no excuse to send her away!

Sadly, he could not say no. Otherwise, he would have trouble explaining things to Luo Ruying.

Without much time to hesitate, Ning Yechen followed Yue Qingyou’s words and nodded. “That's right, Dear.”

After realizing Yue Qingyou was summoned by Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying lowered her guard. “I see, but I'm not used to being served.”

Ning Yechen seized the opportunity provided by Luo Ruying and immediately said, “Since she is not used to being served, you can leave!”

He immediately glanced at Yue Qingyou and sent a voice transmission. “Leave this instant!”

Yue Qingyou ignored him. Tears suddenly appeared on her cold face, and she reached out to wipe them pitifully. “Young Master, I’ve been searching for you ever since you left. I’m so happy to see you, but you want to send me away. I’ve been wandering without a home for so long. If I leave, I have nowhere to go! Sob sob sob…”

Ning Yechen was dumbfounded.

He did not expect Yue Qingyou to act pitiful so that she could stay!

In the Demon Realm, she was the highest commander, but here she was acting pitiful!

If he didn’t know Yue Qingyou very well, he would have fallen for her act!

It felt bizarre!

She was never like this!

Did she have to be so dramatic?

In any case, did she look like she had been away from home for a long time?

His wife could not fall for this!

Ning Yechen turned to look at Luo Ruying and did not know what to say.

Luo Ruying’s eyes were slightly moist as she looked at Yue Qingyou with sympathy. She stepped forward to hold her hand and said gently, “It's okay. We still have empty rooms in the residence. Since you’re here, you might as well stay for now.”

Then she turned to glare fiercely at Ning Yechen, annoyed at his heartlessness.

How could he send for her only to drive her away?

When Luo Ruying first landed in the Mortal Realm with Luo Hongye, she had wandered around for a long time to escape assassinations. So she was empathetic toward Yue Qingyou’s situation.

Seeing this, Ning Yechen knew he was done for.

His wife had fallen for Yue Qingyou's act!

“Come on, Miss Yue. You can pick a room you like.” Luo Ruying brought Yue Qingyou inside the residence.

“Thank you, Madam,” Yue Qingyou replied respectfully. She cast a discreet glance at Ning Yechen with a victorious smile.

Ning Yechen was speechless.
