I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 198: Meeting the parents (9)



Both Long Shui Ling's father and grandfather looked like they still wanted to say something else, but since her mother had already spoken, there was nothing that they could say.

Long Shui Ling looked at her mother with an excited look before saying, "Do you really mean it, mom?"

Her mother said with a nod, "As long as you're happy, we're happy." Then after a pause, she said, "But let's keep this a secret for now. You know what will happen if we announce that you're dating someone."

Long Shui Ling revealed a displeased look before giving a nod.

It seemed that rich people also had their own troubles.

After talking for a bit about their troubles, Long Shui Ling's mother suddenly stood up and started walking away. As she walked off, she said, "Come, let's have a meal together. It's all been prepared and it's probably getting cold with how long we've been talking."

Long Shui Ling took my hand and happily followed behind her mother as she asked, "Did you make my favourites?"

Her mother nodded and patted her head as she said, "Of course. It's Ling Ling's big day, so I made all of your favourites."

Naturally, she couldn't say that she had prepared all of these just in case she had to cheer Long Shui Ling up after chasing away Lin Fan. If she said this, it was certain that Long Shui Ling would ignore her for a long time.

As they walked together, Long Shui Ling's grandmother also came over to talk to her.

She had been silent the whole time, so I was surprised when I saw her talking to Long Shui Ling.

Just a few words were enough for me to realize something.

She was just as sharp as Long Shui Ling's mother and had stayed silent the whole time to leave this matter to her since she trusted her. But that didn't mean that she didn't know what was happening.

It wouldn't be strange if it turned out that most of the plan had been come up by her.

It seemed that the women of the Long Family were the ones to be feared…

The men seemed like they were just decorations.

No, I can't say that since I could feel the aura coming from these two and they were anything but normal.

They most likely wouldn't act like this normally, but they were too emotional because it involved Long Shui Ling, their precious daughter/granddaughter. If they were thinking rationally, they would be able to do things on the same level as Long Shui Ling's mother and grandmother.

There shouldn't be a single simple person in the Long Family.

There couldn't be since they were the richest family in the world.

If they were that simple, they would have been taken down long ago.

Would Long Shui Ling also become like this in the future?

It would be a lie to say that I didn't prefer the current Long Shui Ling.

She had been protected by her family, so she could be considered a bit naive. But with that protection came an innocence that others didn't have which I couldn't help finding endearing.

Would she lose that innocence in the future?

Well…she would have lost it anyway if my plan succeeded…so I really couldn't say anything.

When this thought passed through my mind, I couldn't help letting out a sigh.

Long Shui Ling noticed this and turned around to ask, "What's wrong? You'll lose all your happiness if you sigh like this."

A faint smile slipped onto my lips as I said, "I'm just relieved it's over."

She was surprised at first, but then she said with a smile, "I knew that you could do it. I believed in you."

Seeing the two of us like this, her father and grandfather really wanted to come forward to rip me apart, but her mother and grandmother held them back.

When we arrived at the dining table, I was surprised to find that there wasn't anything there. Not only was there no food, there were no servants at all.

It didn't seem like the dining room of a rich family, well ignoring all the fine decorations that were around us.

As I didn't know what to do, Long Shui Ling pulled me over to the table and we sat down together.

Her father and grandfather took their places at the ends of the table.

It was only her mother and her grandmother who didn't sit down as they headed out another door.

A minute later, they came back with plates of food and cutlery in their hands.

They were setting the table themselves, completely going against what I thought rich people would do.

But then again, with how close they were…it didn't seem like they would use servants for these kinds of things in the first place.

It didn't take long before the table was set and covered with dishes.

The two of them moved quite quickly…much quicker than normal people.

They should also be Awakeners.

But they most likely held back in front of Long Shui Ling so they wouldn't scare her.

How could the heads of the world's richest family be normal people?

Of course they would be Awakeners as well.

I couldn't help wondering what their powers were, but there was a voice that cut through my thoughts.

"Alright, let's eat then." Long Shui Ling's mother said.

Long Shui Ling's father and grandfather immediately turned to Long Shui Ling and started offering her food.

"Ling Ling, this is your favourite Dong Po Pork. Your grandmother spent all afternoon on this."

"Ling Ling, your mother made your favourite chicken rice with mushrooms. Let daddy get you a bowl."

But both of them were ignored by Long Shui Ling.

Instead, she had gotten a bowl and had started picking out a few things from the table.

Once she was done filling her dish, she turned to me and said, "Here, let me feed you."

Once again, the looks of jealousy and hatred came in my direction.
