Trapped in Paradise (In a Hentai World, as a Trap)

Vol. 6 Ch. 104

Hugging her knees, Ning Chu couldn’t help but sigh as she occasionally sipped from the milk tea pressed against her chest. Her gaze finally shifted to her daughter, who was frolicking nearby.

Her daughter had been suffering from stomach pain all day, but now, she was finally feeling better. Her pent-up liveliness was released as she ran around, chasing after Yan Xin Ya's son, her feet almost tripping over his.

Ning Chu’s heart tightened in concern. She feared her daughter would fall again and start crying on the lawn.

"Where did that silly cat, who loved to eat, go?"

Wen Yang spoke softly, his gaze lingering on the laughter and chatter of Yan Xin Ya’s family.

"Working at Wen Yang’s company isn’t bad either."

"This is a member of my gym! Comes three times a week! The home environment is pretty nice, and their clothes cost over a thousand!"

"Really?"

"Of course, really!"

She rubbed her sore ears and raised her eyes to look at the women sitting next to Yan Xin Ya. Yan Xin Ya was attempting to steer the conversation toward her boyfriend, while Lili lazily tilted her head, occasionally offering sharp, sarcastic smiles.

"Enough, I’ve dated before!"

Just as she finished speaking, Lili, who had stopped talking, turned her face toward Ning Chu and glanced back at Xixi, who was eagerly asking the bunny girl about pregnancy techniques. The topic seemed to captivate her.

Ning Chu’s lips twitched as she rubbed her sore ears and glanced at the women beside Yan Xin Ya.

They had bought a drink and were heading back, clearly in their thirties, sighing as they picked out large pieces of clothing.

"Fiber…"

Though Ning Chu often lazed around with Wen Yang, she couldn't help but wonder whether this was a criticism.

"Save me, Ning Chu!" Xixi suddenly threw her arms around Ning Chu’s, burying her face in her chest, wailing, "They’re being too much!"

"Ah! So many people! Why do we care about you?" Yan Xin Ya continued to pester her with a colorful expression, "Ning Chu, look at this picture, this guy is actually pretty good-looking!"

"Let me see..." Ning Chu squinted her eyes, taking the picture from Wolf-girl and frowning slightly. "He's this big. Can Xixi’s little body handle it?"

"Ning Chu, you’re like this too!"

"Of course, because dressing up more has its perks. Obviously, seeking help from a succubus is a great choice."

"Wen Yang is even taller! You can handle it." Yan Xin Ya chuckled teasingly.

"I’m just a succubus."

Though she was a succubus too, and in the book, even with a giant tentacle monster, handling a big one shouldn’t be a problem.

In the distance, a series of loud, rumbling noises startled Ning Chu, and as she looked up, she saw two dazzling fireworks soaring into the sky, their vivid colors contrasting against the night sky of the city.

Visitors on the park’s grassy lawn cheered, and the fireworks continued to rise one after another, lighting up the pitch-black sky as if it were daytime.

"Wow, how beautiful~"

Everyone fell silent. Xixi suddenly gazed upward in awe.

Ning Chu and Wen Yang leaned forward, following the fireworks with their eyes.

"Mm," Ning Chu murmured, nodding slightly.

The fireworks filled the sky, their dazzling colors impossible to ignore.

"The last fireworks," the couple shared a brief moment of peace, enjoying their time in the world together.

Wen Yang leaned against a tree trunk, resting one leg, while Ning Chu tilted her body and leaned her head on his shoulder, nestled in his embrace.

"When I watched the fireworks last year, you promised to take me again next year... but here we are, waiting until now."

"Really?"

Ning Chu frowned in anger, "So you’ve already forgotten, haven’t you?!"

"Uh..." Wen Yang searched for an opening to explain, "No, it’s just that I’ve been too busy..."

"Now you’re busy... why didn’t you want to see the fireworks?"

"From last year until now, I’ve let you rest for half a day!"

"Shopping with mom, doing a big cleanup..."

His defense sounded weak. He hesitated, not daring to look Ning Chu in the eyes. Changing the topic, he asked, "How did Xixi turn into a person?"

Wen Yang glanced up slightly, noticing that only Xixi remained. She was lying on the grass, staring at Lili’s departing figure, looking like she had been abandoned.

"Who told her not to have a boyfriend?" Ning Chu suddenly laughed.

"By the way, where did Lili go? Her husband didn’t come either?"

Wen Yang opened his mouth lightly, "I guess she’s still on a video call with her husband."

"Right! I’ll take some photos too!" Ning Chu pulled out her phone, aimed it at the blooming fireworks, and mumbled, "Otherwise, who knows when the next fireworks will be."

"From last year until now, we’ll go to Grandpa’s house and set off fireworks ourselves."

"You said we were going to travel last year."

"..." Wen Yang paused, "The fireworks in the scenic area are better."

"Whoosh~"

Ning Chu rolled her eyes but didn’t press him further.

She snuggled into Wen Yang’s arms again, smelling the distant scent of smoke on the wind, but more strongly, she caught the faint scent of Wen Yang’s sweat and male hormones.

The fireworks continued to float in the sky, breathtaking. Several years ago, on New Year’s Eve, she had stayed in Wen Yang’s embrace watching the fireworks, just like now. The fireworks kept bursting in the sky, and the scent of the fireworks mixed with the air, but now, her gaze lingered more on the women in the distance.

Yet, in Wen Yang’s eyes, only Ning Chu’s side profile existed.

"Could this still be Wen Yang’s life?"

Ning Chu sneered, looking at the pride and disappointment in her own eyes, "I’ve already gotten used to some things."

"How could that be? I’ll always stay with you. Have you been bullied?"

"No! It’s just that sometimes I think like that." Ning Chu poked Wen Yang’s side, feeling annoyed, "Can’t you have some normal form?"

"What do you mean by 'form'?"

"Life’s form! What’s the road for—" Wen Yang rubbed her waist and pulled her tighter, "You’re just thinking about meaningless things..."

"Mm~" Ning Chu interrupted, "Then what is meaningful?"

"Living well in the present?"

Wen Yang glanced at her face and softly kissed her forehead, adding, "Let’s live each day well together."

"That’s meaningful."

"What are you talking about?" Ning Chu turned her head away, "Don’t press on my sore waist, it really hurts."

The fireworks illuminated the night sky, and with that light, Wen Yang could almost see her ears turning a deep red from embarrassment.

"Why are you blushing so much? We’re an old couple, and you’re still shy?"

"Help! She fell again! I’m going to check on her!"

Ning Chu quickly broke free from his arms and hurried toward her daughter’s direction.

"Still shy, but tough-talking."

AUTOR'S NOTE:

Let's stop here with Ning Chu's daily life, otherwise there will be too much water, and it will be too much for everyone to see, and I should also prepare a new book.

If you have any ideas about the new book, you can complain, but I don't have any ideas for the new book at the moment.

Thank you all for your support over the past year!
