Chapter 167 - This Husband is the Demon Lord, and Even More So, Your Husband

In the courtyard, inside the bedchamber.

Luo Ruying sat quietly on the edge of the bed, her beautiful eyes fixed intently on Ning Yechen before her.

Ning Yechen also quietly met Luo Ruying’s gaze.

The two of them faced each other, their eyes meeting, both silent, and the room was filled with a subtle atmosphere...

Ning Yechen’s peripheral vision caught sight of the washboard that had been sent flying into the corner that night. Under Luo Ruying’s puzzled gaze, he slowly bent down, picked up the washboard, placed it in front of him, and obediently knelt on it...

"Husband, what... what are you doing...?"

Luo Ruying asked, puzzled.

"Didn’t my wife say that in the mortal realm, when a husband makes a mistake, he has to kneel on a washboard?"

"This husband is apologizing to my wife!"

Ning Yechen said with a sincere and serious expression.

Luo Ruying: “......”

Luo Ruying was stunned for a moment, then couldn’t help but be amused by Ning Yechen’s serious demeanor and burst into laughter.

Seeing Luo Ruying laugh, the worry in Ning Yechen’s heart eased, and a delighted smile couldn’t help but appear on his face.

It seems like my wife isn’t very angry...?

"Husband, you are the supreme and noble Demon Lord."

"Doing this is truly beneath your status, Demon~ Lord~ Si~r~"

Luo Ruying, realizing her lapse in composure, quickly covered her mouth, then deliberately put on a stern face, her beautiful eyes gazing at him as she said faintly.

When she uttered the four words ‘Demon Lord Sir,’ she deliberately enunciated each syllable, her words filled with playful resentment and dissatisfaction...

Just like an angry, haughty, and deliberately sarcastic little girlfriend...

Ning Yechen was also truly surprised.

He hadn’t expected his wife to have this side to her...

"My wife, you are mistaken there~"

"This husband is the Demon Lord, and even more so, your husband."

Ning Yechen flashed to Luo Ruying’s side and sat down, his hand grasping her slender, smooth, jade-like hand, his clear, profound eyes gazing intently at her.

Suddenly appearing by her side, Luo Ruying was startled, her heart thumping, and a blush couldn’t help but creep onto her cheeks. She quickly averted her head, looking away.

Her heartstrings seemed to have been gently plucked, sending ripples through them...

Ning Yechen also hadn’t expected Luo Ruying to become shy so easily...

My wife is truly as shy and adorable as ever~(❁´◡`❁)

"My dear, this husband not telling you about my demon clan identity was my fault."

"This husband apologizes to you."

"Are you still angry with me?"

Ning Yechen leaned closer from her side, approaching Luo Ruying’s beautiful face, and asked softly.

Luo Ruying’s crimson, beautiful eyes glanced sideways at him. She let out a soft breath, then turned her head to look directly at Ning Yechen and said calmly:

"Actually, I had already guessed your demon clan identity, husband."

"Eh... is that so...?" (#°Д°)

Ning Yechen’s eyes widened in surprise.

"Wife, you... when did you find out about my identity?"

"Just two days ago..."

Luo Ruying replied.

Two days ago...

Ning Yechen’s expression became thoughtful as he carefully and seriously recalled.

Two days ago was precisely when their child had the accident, and he had retrieved the Celestial Spirit Sap and the Demonic Energy Crystals from the Heavenly and Demon Realms...

In other words, the abnormality of celestial spirit and demonic spirit coexisting in one body within Luo Hongye had actually been noticed by Luo Ruying.

It was just that she deliberately didn’t mention it...!

So, the reason she made him sleep on the floor that night two days ago, and why she had been somewhat deliberately distant these past two days, was actually because she had already discovered his identity?!

It wasn’t at all because he came back late from being out that night...!

Ning Yechen suddenly had an epiphany.

Luo Ruying frowned lightly, her cherry lips parting slightly as she began to question him:

"Husband, you didn’t go to any pharmacy in the city that night at all, did you?"

"No..."

"The Jiang family’s disappearance was also your doing, husband?"

"Yes..."

"The mysterious person who rescued me in the mountain forest that day was also you, husband, wasn’t it!"

Recalling the days she had spent with Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying realized with hindsight, feeling greatly that she had misjudged.

How could she only have guessed Ning Yechen’s identity now!

Clearly, from the very beginning, this fellow had been very suspicious!

At first, she didn’t know the small wooden house was in the Demonic Beast Forest; she thought it was just an ordinary forest.

Only later did she learn that it was the Demon Beast Forest where demonic beasts gathered, yet she forgot to suspect his identity! free𝑤ebnovel.com

Thinking about it now, how could a mere mortal live alone in seclusion deep within the Demon Beast Forest, which is full of demonic beasts!

The person who rescued her in the forest that day, and who subconsciously reached out to touch her, was clearly him!

Seeing that Luo Ruying had already guessed everything, Ning Yechen could only give an embarrassed smile and honestly admit:

"It was this husband...”

After hearing Ning Yechen admit it with her own ears, Luo Ruying’s beautiful brows knitted tightly, and she asked:

"So? Why did you have to hide it from me...?"

"My wife is the Empress of the Heavenly Realm, and this husband is of the demon clan. Since ancient times, immortals and demons have been irreconcilable."

"This husband was worried that after my identity was exposed, I would be beaten to death by my wife!"

"How’s that for a reason~?"

Ning Yechen explained with a smile on his face.

"You...! I...!"

"In your eyes, am I, am I that kind of person?"

"Besides, how could I possibly defeat you...!"

Hearing this, Luo Ruying was instantly so angry her ample chest heaved up and down, and she tried to pull back the hand Ning Yechen was holding.

Ning Yechen naturally tightened his grip on Luo Ruying’s hand, not letting go, and with a reverse motion, smoothly and forcefully pulled her into his embrace.

Luo Ruying was unprepared and, caught off guard, fell into Ning Yechen’s embrace...

Before she could even struggle to get up, Ning Yechen’s hands tightly embraced her slender waist, his cheek pressing against her ear...

"This husband was joking~"

"Actually, this husband was afraid that after my wife found out about this husband’s identity, you would leave this husband’s side..."

"In truth, this husband has always wanted to find a chance to confess to my wife!"

Luo Ruying lay against Ning Yechen’s chest, her palm lightly resting on it. Feeling the slight tremor in his chest, her expression couldn’t help but show surprise.

Is he nervous...?

Because he’s afraid she’ll leave...?

Listening to the sincere and tender whispers by her ear, Luo Ruying’s expression gradually softened, and the dissatisfaction, resentment, and anger in her heart unknowingly dissipated...

"Husband, I never thought of leaving you..."

Luo Ruying proactively pressed her cheek against Ning Yechen’s chest, and her hands also took the initiative to embrace Ning Yechen’s waist.

Ning Yechen was stunned upon hearing this, his face filled with ecstasy. He looked down at Luo Ruying in his embrace and asked:

"My wife, could it be that you don’t mind my demon clan identity?"

Luo Ruying lifted her head from his embrace, her face shyly flushed crimson. She gave Ning Yechen an exceptionally charming and coquettish glance, then buried her head in his chest again and muttered softly:

"Didn’t husband say it before?"

"Although you are of the demon clan, you are also my husband..."

"If I, if I minded, I would have taken the child and left two days ago..."

Although the immortal and demon clans have been irreconcilable since ancient times, she

wasn’t oblivious to the little things from spending this period of time with Ning Yechen.

Although he is of the demon clan, his love for her and their child is genuine, and he has never harmed her or the child.

In that case, even if it’s the identity of the demon clan, what does it matter?

She had originally planned to give up her immortal identity to be with Ning Yechen. Whether he was a mortal or of the demon clan, she didn’t mind...

Besides...

On New Year’s Eve, under the dazzling fireworks, she had already agreed, promising to accompany him for the rest of her life...

After learning of Ning Yechen’s demon clan identity, she was indeed a little angry.

But what she was angry about wasn’t his demon clan identity, but why he had to deliberately hide it from her...

It always made her feel as if she wasn’t trusted...

This was the real reason she was angry...
