There’s Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 262: Not His Daughter; That's His Woman

When Zhao Qiuyu saw Lu Xun in the pavilion, she instantly remembered him as the benefactor she had encountered. However, if she remembered correctly, he...he already had a daughter, and the little girl seemed quite grown-up, at least entering the age of blossoming youth.

Hastily pulling Mu Qingshuang back, Zhao Qiuyu looked at her Aunt Mu, who had watched her grow up. Carefully, she asked, "Aunt Mu, could it be that he is your lover?"

Mu Qingshuang nodded shyly, somewhat embarrassed, "Does he look particularly handsome, elegant, and romantic? Although... although Aunt Mu is already over forty, her heart is still very girlish. So... so, anyway, I like him very much, and he likes me too."

"..."

"Do you know about his situation?" Zhao Qiuyu saw Mu Qingshuang in a passionate state for the first time, a bit surprised. In her impression, Aunt Mu was a very traditional and reserved woman. Now, she was acting like a cow in heat, showing a hint of irrationality.

Mu Qingshuang pursed her lips and calmly replied, "Of course, I know about his situation. Aunt Mu hasn't let desire cloud her judgment, blindly falling for a stranger. It's definitely a choice made after understanding his situation. Alas, I'm already this old, don't I understand this?"

Zhao Qiuyu was even more surprised. She hesitated for a long time with the words at the tip of her tongue, then forcibly swallowed them back, staring at Mu Qingshuang with wide eyes. She couldn't help but bite her own lips and cautiously asked, "Aunt Mu, is there a possibility that you completely don't understand him?"

"Huh?"

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Qiuyu tightly bit her red lips and chirpingly said, "Aunt Mu, tell me the truth first. Do you... do you really love him? Or is it because... because of your loneliness over these years, wanting a young man to pass the time? Aunt, tell me the truth, it must be the truth."

Mu Qingshuang was speechless for a moment, and at the same time, she felt displeased. She sighed lightly and gently grabbed Zhao Qiuyu's little hand. "I love him, and he loves me deeply. Let me tell you the truth. Aunt Mu has already given herself to him. I'm already his woman."

This...

Aunt Mu, you are confused!

Zhao Qiuyu was full of helplessness and hastily said, "Aunt Mu, why are you so impulsive?"

"Impulsive or not, I am already at this age. If I'm not impulsive, when do you want me to be?" Mu Qingshuang rolled her eyes at her, softly saying, "Alright, alright. I know what you're thinking. That's enough. The key is, it's not just me in this age-disparate situation. There's still..."

Speaking of this, the words abruptly stopped.

Zhao Qiuyu looked at her with confusion, inquiring, "What else?"

"Nothing. You'll know in the future." Mu Qingshuang curled her lips, "In short, this is the current situation. Whether you agree or not, or whether you like it or not, I am already his woman."

This was the final reminder and also the last piece of advice. Seeing Aunt Mu so stubborn, Zhao Qiuyu could only act as the bad person and tell her everything she knew. Although... it might make Aunt Mu feel very painful, at least it could make her see the reality.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Qiuyu said with emphasis, "Aunt Mu, your lover, I have met him!"

"What?"

"You've met him? When did you meet him? Where did you meet him?" Mu Qingshuang was greatly surprised, urgently inquiring.

Zhao Qiuyu lightly pursed her lips and replied softly, "Just a few months ago. I sneaked out of the palace and traveled all the way to Yangzhou City. One night, I was watching a play on the street, and my money pouch was stolen. In the end, a young man lent me fifty taels of silver."

"Could it be..."

"Could it be that this young man is him?" Mu Qingshuang raised her eyebrows playfully, a hint of charm in her expression.

"Yes, it's him."

Zhao Qiuyu nodded and said, "I'm sure it's him!"

Mu Qingshuang smiled and said lightly, "I was wondering what happened. I was almost scared to death. It turns out it's just because of this incident."

Zhao Qiuyu bit her lip and muttered softly, "If... if that's the case, why would I be so nervous? Aunt Mu, do you know that, in reality, your lover not only has you as a woman but also has another woman!"

Hearing Zhao Qiuyu's words, Mu Qingshuang couldn't help but be surprised. She suppressed the astonishment deep inside and asked calmly, "Is that so?"

"Absolutely!"

"Qiuyu wouldn't dare to deceive Aunt Mu." Zhao Qiuyu nodded repeatedly.

Mu Qingshuang hesitated for a moment and answered calmly, "Actually, I already know. I know he already has a woman. But I don't care about these things. Moreover, I know that other woman. No, it's not just knowing her, we are like sisters."

What!

Aunt Mu knows he has a woman? And she's even like sisters with that woman?

Zhao Qiuyu was directly stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief and an unexpected expression.

"Aunt Mu, you..."

Zhao Qiuyu opened her mouth, countless words hovering on the tip of her tongue, yet not knowing what to say.

Mu Qingshuang looked at Zhao Qiuyu, observing her shocked expression. In her heart, she secretly criticized: Is this surprising? If you knew that your esteemed teacher, Su Jingyi, who is praised as the contemporary immortal, is in a situation similar to mine, wouldn't your jaw drop?

"Aunt Mu."

"Do you really not mind that he has a daughter?" Zhao Qiuyu asked quietly.

Mu Qingshuang shook her head and replied indifferently, "Of course, I don't mind. It's just a daughter. Huh? Daughter? What daughter?"

"Huh?"

"You don't know?" Zhao Qiuyu frowned, saying seriously, "When I saw him at that time, he was with his daughter watching the play. She was about... about this tall. Then he carried her on his back, standing next to me. We watched the play together; she's a cute girl."

Phew—

A false alarm.

It turns out it's the little fox, Mu Qingshuang sighed in relief, explaining casually, "That's not his daughter; that's his woman."

"Ah?"

"Oh, so she's his woman."

Zhao Qiuyu nodded, then stood there in a daze. Suddenly, she reacted sharply, widening her eyes in extreme shock and asking, "That petite and cute girl is actually his other woman?"

"Shh!"

"Keep your voice down. What are you doing? Don't make a fuss!" Mu Qingshuang hastily covered her mouth, saying unkindly, "Don't be fooled by her small and cute appearance. In reality, she's older than me. She belongs to the same generation as your grandpa."

"No way?"

"Isn't that an old demon?" Zhao Qiuyu found it hard to believe. The little girl looked seemingly like a young beauty, but in reality, she was more than a hundred years old?!

"She..."

Mu Qingshuang hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "She is indeed not human."

".."

"Is she really a demoness?" Zhao Qiuyu was a bit at a loss, biting her lip and asking softly, "Isn't the union of humans and demons against the natural order?"

"Yes."

"But in the face of true love, so-called natural order is not worth mentioning," Mu Qingshuang said lightly and mysteriously.

This...

Zhao Qiuyu was speechless, pursing her lips. Looking at Mu Qingshuang in front of her, she asked softly, "Aunt Mu, is he really that good?"

Mu Qingshuang nodded without hesitation, "If he weren't good, how could I willingly do this? Besides, even knowing that he has other women, I'm still so devoted. Aunt Mu is not a child. The only reason I can make such a choice is that he is the only man in my heart."

The only man.

It seems that Aunt Mu has fallen in love beyond control.

Seeing Mu Qingshuang so determined, Zhao Qiuyu gently grabbed her jade hand, saying tenderly, "Aunt Mu, congratulations, you have finally found true love for yourself. Although my little brother-in-law is of similar age to me and feels a bit strange, I sincerely wish you both a long and happy life together."

Mu Qingshuang smiled, softly saying, "You and your sister, find a good man to marry soon. If you don't marry early, you'll end up like me."

"I... I'd rather not. Not with this situation with me and my sister." Zhao Qiuyu said with bitterness.

Mu Qingshuang gently patted her back, comforting her tenderly, "Don't panic. Your Teacher Su will protect you. In this world, except for the thousand-year-old demoness, no one dares to harm you in front of her. As long as she stands in front of you, no one dares to touch you."

"Ah..."

"Let's talk about it later." Zhao Qiuyu didn't want to mention this matter again and said quietly.

"Yes."

Mu Qingshuang pursed her lips, gently smiling, "Come, let Aunt Mu take you to meet your 'little' brother-in-law."

Saying that, the charming widow led Zhao Qiuyu back to the backyard, walking straight to the pavilion.

"Lu Lang."

"I made you wait." Mu Qingshuang looked at her lover, saying tenderly, "Do you remember this young lady?"

Lu Xun, who was drinking tea, glanced at the woman beside the charming widow. There seemed to be a vague impression, but he couldn't pinpoint where he had seen her. He shook his head silently, "I don't remember."

"Benefactor."

"Do you remember the charming young master in Yangzhou City who had his money pouch stolen?" Zhao Qiuyu smiled and said, "That was me, and I was in male disguise."

Upon hearing these words, Lu Xun's hand trembled suddenly, and the clear tea spilled from the cup. He was suddenly in a panic, sitting uncomfortably.

Caught!

She was one of the two goddaughters mentioned by Aunt Su, the Second Princess of the /collection/257029
