Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Chapter 97 - What's Wrong with Being a Mortal?

Ning Yechen was immediately unhappy upon hearing this.

He had already reluctantly given up the opportunity to bathe with his wife, and now Luo Ruxin wanted to snatch away his rare chance to share a bed and be intimate with his wife for one night!

"Sister, I haven't seen you in so long."

"There are so many things I want to talk to you about~"

Luo Ruxin clung to Luo Ruying's arm, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Luo Ruying hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ning Yechen with a hint of embarrassment and said, "Husband, could you please sleep in another room tonight?"

It was a rare opportunity to reunite with her family, and Luo Ruying wanted to catch up with Luo Ruxin.

Besides, she also had things to tell Luo Ruxin and wanted to give her some instructions.

Although she felt a bit sorry for Ning Yechen, she had to temporarily inconvenience him...

After all, there would be plenty of opportunities for them to share a bed in the future...

"My dear..."

Hearing that Luo Ruying wanted him to sleep somewhere else, Ning Yechen's face was full of reluctance and grievance. He looked at Luo Ruying with pleading eyes.

Bedtime every night was the moment he looked forward to the most, and now she wanted him to give it up!

It seemed this sister-in-law was determined to cause trouble for him...!

Luo Ruxin hid behind Luo Ruying, looking at Ning Yechen with a triumphant expression.

Ning Yechen was inwardly fuming.

If she weren't his sister-in-law, he would definitely teach her a lesson...!

Seeing Ning Yechen's almost pitiful expression, Luo Ruying found it both funny and endearing.

She knew it seemed unfair to him, so she leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "Husband, I'll have her go back in a few days."

"Just bear with it for a little while."

"Later... later, I'll make it up to you..."

Make it up to him...?!

Hearing the word "compensation" from Luo Ruying, Ning Yechen's eyes lit up instantly. He immediately declared without hesitation, "Don't worry, wife, I'm not that petty!"

"You and your sister can sleep together tonight."

Luo Ruying: "..."

Seeing Ning Yechen's expression change so quickly, Luo Ruying instantly regretted speaking too soon...

He had clearly been so reluctant just a moment ago.

But since she had already said it, she couldn't go back on her word.

......

Inside the Room

Luo Ruxin eagerly sprawled on the bed, greedily inhaling the scent of the bedding, her face filled with intoxication.

Mmm

Sister's scent.

After so long, she could finally sleep with her sister again and smell her scent.

"Oh, you, stop with those strange actions."

Luo Ruying sat on the edge of the bed, styling her hair, and said helplessly to Luo Ruxin, who was rolling around on the bed, hugging the blanket.

Why couldn't this girl grow up...?

But seeing that she was still the same as when she was little, Luo Ruying felt happy in her heart...

Tonight, in order not to leave Ning Yechen alone, and because she had some things to discuss with Luo Ruxin, she had let Ning Yechen take the child with him, afraid of disturbing her sleep.

At this moment, from the next room, she could already hear Ning Yechen's cheerful laughter as he played with their daughter.

"We're flying~"

"Heehee, Daddy is so amazing~"

Hearing the sounds, Luo Ruying's beautiful face bloomed into a captivating smile.

He really...

It was almost bedtime, and he was still playing with their daughter...

Luo Ruxin, seeing Luo Ruying's happy smile, pouted and lay on the bed, feeling disgruntled.

She had originally planned to sleep with her sister and niece tonight, leaving that man alone in an empty room!

But her sister insisted on letting Little Ye Ye sleep with that man.

And Little Ye Ye even said something about not wanting Daddy to be alone...

The child's adorable and understanding nature made her helplessly give up.

"Sister, can I ask you a question...?"

Luo Ruxin asked, looking at Luo Ruying's graceful back.

"Hmm?"

"What is it?"

Luo Ruying turned her head and asked.

"Why did you choose that man?"

Luo Ruxin asked, her displeasure evident.

With her sister's status and position, even in the Heavenly Realm, what kind of man couldn't she find?

Since childhood, her sister had been famous throughout the Heavenly Realm for her unique silver hair and exceptional beauty.

And because of her outstanding cultivation talent, countless influential men had come to propose marriage!

She couldn't understand why her sister would fall for a man who, apart from his looks, had nothing else to offer.

Luo Ruying blushed at Luo Ruxin's question, unsure how to answer for a moment.

Strictly speaking, it wasn't that she had chosen Ning Yechen...

It was more that she had no other choice at the time...

But she found it difficult to explain the reason...

If Luo Ruxin knew that she had reluctantly given herself to Ning Yechen out of desperation, with her sister's personality, she would definitely fly into a rage and insist on killing him...

"He's... he's quite good…”

Luo Ruying blushed and replied vaguely.

"Hmm...?"

"Quite good?"

"In what way is he quite good?"

Luo Ruxin pressed further, puzzled.

Her sister's answer was too ambiguous...

And from the beginning, why was her sister's face getting redder and redder...?

Suspicious indeed.

"Sister, why is your face red...?"

"Is... is it?!"

"Maybe it's because I soaked in the bath for too long..."

Luo Ruying said, covering her flushed cheeks.

It was all this girl's fault, making her think about inappropriate things...

"Sister, you still haven't told me what's so good about that guy?"

Luo Ruxin persisted, refusing to let it go.

She didn't believe there was anything about a mortal that could make her sister fall for him!

"He's your brother-in-law."

"Don't call him 'that guy.' It's very disrespectful."

Luo Ruying first lightly knocked Luo Ruxin on the head as a reprimand.

Then, she fell into deep thought, recalling her time with Ning Yechen, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Although he's just a mortal, he's actually very responsible and gentle..."

"He's very good to me and our child..."

"Don't underestimate your brother-in-law. His family seems to have been physicians for generations, and he's quite skilled in medicine."

"And he's also very good at taking care of people and making children happy..."

"But Sister, he's just a mortal..."

Seeing Luo Ruying eloquently listing Ning Yechen's merits, Luo Ruxin hurriedly interrupted her.

Although many of those qualities sounded good, they were all too ordinary!

Most importantly, how could a mortal protect her sister?!

She had hardly ever heard of any love stories between mortals and cultivators in this world.

Whether it was social status, cultivation disparity, or lifespan, the gap between mortals and cultivators was immense.

Mortals had short lifespans, at most a hundred years, and that was considered longevity.

A hundred years later, when that man passed away, knowing her sister, she would definitely never accept anyone else in her life.

Wouldn't that mean she would be widowed for the rest of her life...!

That was why she was so opposed to Ning Yechen being her brother-in-law.

Apart from the fact that he had taken her beloved sister, the other reason was that they were simply not suitable for each other!

Luo Ruying knew what Luo Ruxin was worried about and smiled calmly.

"What's wrong with being a mortal?"

"As long as he's someone I can entrust my life to, that's enough..."

"When you find someone you love in the future, you'll understand…”
