LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 601. College Student Hei Dou
It’s been a week since my daughter started school.
This week has been the most relaxing and happy week for Ning Chu in the past three or four years~
She sends her daughter off to school in the morning, rushes back home to catch up on sleep with Wen Yang, and in the afternoon, while Wen Yang goes to the company, she just stays home playing on the computer or doing housework. In the evening, although her daughter still can’t manage to sleep in her own bed and interrupts their night life, she figures that they are not far from completely separating the beds.
This lifestyle hasn’t lasted too long, but Ning Chu’s complexion has clearly improved from a week ago, looking rosy and full, her skin has also become fairer, and she’s smiling more than before, exuding the charm of a mature young woman in her every move.
But Wen Yang has been a bit worn out lately.
Not only is he being squeezed by the Succubus, but he also has to handle company affairs. Without his morning work time, when he gets home in the evening, he’s often found hugging his laptop to work.
On weekends, his work continues, just without going to the office, where he dutifully spends time at home with his wife and child.
“Here~ your coffee.”
The sliding glass door of the study opened, and Ning Chu entered with a cup of coffee. She glanced at the computer screen and pouted, “I don’t get it.”
“What’s Shu Jun doing?” Wen Yang took the coffee and noticed the white heart-shaped latte art, smiling as he asked, “Not bad, looks good.”
“Just bored at home, I picked up a few things.”
“Should I open a coffee shop and let you be the boss lady?”
“Stop it~” Ning Chu stood behind Wen Yang, her slender fingers gently pressing on his stiff neck muscles as she said, “Shu Jun is practicing dancing. The kindergarten said they’re holding a performance for National Day, and she’s become a little actor~”
Wen Yang looked surprised, “So diligent?”
“The teacher said she might have a talent for dancing, and she herself enjoys it.”
Ning Chu has been pondering sending her daughter for dance classes soon, whether it be ballet or classical, just to enroll her in a few more classes so that on weekends, she wouldn’t be at home bothering them… this way, even if her daughter doesn’t study well in the future, she’d at least have a skill. At least she won’t starve.
“I’ll check it out when I have time~ find a reputable place with good teachers.”
Wen Yang nodded, “Don’t be cheap, pick a good teacher.”
“Don’t worry~”
There are often news reports about injuries from dance classes, and serious cases might even lead to lower limb paralysis.
But Ning Chu does her homework before embarking on anything, from the milk powder her daughter drinks to toys and diapers, all the way to kindergartens—each one has been carefully researched before she made a choice.
“By the way, have you asked her what she thinks?” Wen Yang suddenly turned his head to ask.
Ning Chu instinctively blurted out, “She’s so little, what could she possibly think of…”
But then she paused and began to nod, “I’ll go ask her… if she doesn’t want to, that’s fine, or we can let her try a few trial classes.”
“Sounds good.”
“Get your work done quickly; we need to go pick up Hei Dou soon.”
Wen Yang saved the document on his computer, stretched lazily and got up, “Help me get some clothes.”
“Wearing nothing but shorts every day…” Ning Chu glanced down with a face full of disdain, “Aren’t you afraid Shu Jun will learn bad habits? Be more presentable!”
“I’ll cover her up tightly when she gets a little older.”
But Ning Chu seriously refused, “No way!”
“What’s wrong?”
“She’s a Succubus! Who knows what’s going on in that little head of hers!”
Although most kids are filled with curiosity about the opposite sex when they reach middle school, there’s no predicting with a Succubus, and kids these days mature too quickly.
Ning Chu hopes her daughter can be like Lily, a shameful Succubus, rather than a qualified Succubus involved in every anti-prostitution sweep.
“She’s so little…”
Wen Yang thought his wife was overreacting, but scratching his head, he nodded, “Alright, the problem is the study doesn’t have air conditioning.”
“Just leave the door open, right?”
“It’s too noisy.”
“Just consider it getting used to things early.”
Ning Chu handed him his clothes and shorts while glancing at the time, “Hurry up, Hei Dou will be arriving soon.”
“Okay, okay~”
Wen Yang smiled wryly, quickly got dressed, and grabbed the car keys, “I’m off; you discuss the dance thing with our daughter.”
“Got it.”
After sending her husband off in the elevator, Ning Chu returned to their now-daughter’s bedroom.
The door was tightly shut, but there was no sound from inside, which immediately made her anxious.
So quiet! What if she’s up to something!
Ning Chu lightened her footstep, suddenly pushed open the door, and peered inside.
Her daughter was lying on a yoga mat, curled up with her legs, making her seem particularly small and adorable. Her tail was swaying slightly, radiating peace and tranquility.
Phew~ she’s just asleep.
Ning Chu breathed a sigh of relief, tiptoeing closer, squatting down to admire her daughter’s cute round face.
Her daughter is indeed the cutest when she’s asleep~
Neither noisy nor high blood pressure-inducing, her tender and obedient appearance made Ning Chu overflow with maternal love~
Ning Chu carefully picked up her daughter and placed her on the bed, covering her with a blanket to keep her from catching a cold.
“Mom?”
Though she had been cautious enough, her movements startled her daughter, who fluttered her long lashes, blinking her glimmering big eyes at her mother in confusion.
“Let’s take a nap; I’ll wake you up in an hour.”
Perhaps she had developed a napping habit in kindergarten, as it was still early afternoon, and her daughter was already feeling sleepy.
Ning Chu gently stroked her daughter’s long hair, smiling as she said, “Auntie will come over later, and you’ll be able to see her when you wake up.”
“Auntie? Who’s that?”
“……”
Hei Dou will cry!
She’s the one who has carried you, changed your diapers, and fed you, okay~
A month ago, during summer break, you were playing happily with her, tagging behind that silly cat every day.
“She’s my younger sister, Ning Xin, the one with cat ears and a fluffy tail.”
Her daughter’s expression grew even more confused, “Is she a teacher?”
“Your teacher is an orange cat; she’s a black cat…” Ning Chu secretly laughed in her heart, gently patting her daughter’s back to soothe her, “Just sleep; you’ll know who she is when you wake up.”
“Oh~”
In just a few minutes, her daughter fell deeply asleep, and Ning Chu quietly got up to continue her housework.
The house isn’t big, but chores seem never-ending, especially with bedding and linens that need washing every day.
By the time she finished washing the bedding, linens, and clothes for the whole family and hung them on the balcony, she heard familiar chatter coming from the living room.
“Sister! I’m back~ Where’s the baby? Why didn’t you come to get me!”
Ning Chu wiped her wet hands and returned from the balcony to the living room, immediately spotting the lively cat girl darting around the house.
They said cats become aloof and quiet when they grow up, but why is this cat still as energetic as she was as a kitten? She’s almost on par with a Husky now.
“Keep it down; Shu Jun is taking a nap.”
“Sister~” Hei Dou suddenly pounced over, burying her face into Ning Chu’s shoulder, eyes all teary, “Do you know how much I’ve suffered this month?!”
Ning Chu was startled, “What happened?”
“I can’t find any internship jobs at all~”
