Demon King – Chapter 556 – Yuki Exploiting a Loophole

So the so-called afternoon activity was just having barbecue here, huh. Watching everyone bustle about in the garden making preparations, Eiya felt a bit speechless.

That said, barbecue was indeed pretty fun. While she was thinking this, Eiya did not even notice that Lin Miao had already walked up behind her.

“Did you lock the door?”

“Huh? Yeah… it’s locked, don’t worry. Sis shouldn’t be able to get up for a while.”

“What are you two whispering about over there? If you want to eat something, bring it over to grill. This is all there is for dinner.”

The way the two were whispering caught Ei Yuan’s attention, but he did not care about what they were talking about. His gaze swept around, yet he did not find that familiar yet unfamiliar figure.

“Eiya, where’s your brother? Still sleeping?”

“Yeah, he didn’t sleep well yesterday, so he’s still sleeping… his biological clock isn’t that easy to adjust. Let’s not wake him for now, just save him some food.”

While helping her sister explain, Eiya was also on guard in case someone suddenly went upstairs and discovered her presence.

“Alright then, let him sleep a bit longer, but not too long.”

Sighing, Ei Yuan was not particularly strict with his son in this regard. Well, he never really managed things in the first place.

While everyone here was eating barbecue, far away in Huanghai, a certain silver-haired boy was rubbing some unidentified creature in his hands and sinking into thought.

“So Lu Brat just ditched me like that?”

Rubbing Hulu’s head, Yuki felt a bit annoyed.

‘Damn it, my wife got taken away. Give my wife back.’

Since it was not convenient to send Hulu over, naturally this little guy could only be temporarily taken care of by Yuki. But Yuki was quite happy to do so, because he had recently discovered something very interesting.

He already knew that there was some unclear connection between Hulu and Eiru, and for some reason, that connection now seemed to be even tighter. He did not know when it started, but when Eiru fell asleep, Hulu would also synchronously enter a sleeping state.

So even though he was far away in Huanghai, Yuki could still know that his little girlfriend was definitely sleeping soundly right now. The little thing in his hands had directly passed over information about that silly loli on the other end.

“Hope she has fun and doesn’t stir up any trouble again…”

While sighing, Yuki caught sight of a certain big cat walking over with lazy steps out of the corner of his eye.

“Meow~”

Sitting obediently on the floor, Gulu raised one paw and stared unblinkingly at the little thing sleeping soundly in Yuki’s hands.

“What’s wrong, want to play with Hulu? But it’s sleeping right now… you can’t wake it up.”

Since they were linked, Yuki naturally did not dare gamble on waking it. What if he woke up the loli on the other end?

“nya~”

“Alright, good… but speaking of which, when did you get so big? You could grow this much?”

Asking the same question Eiru had before, Yuki scratched the big cat’s head beside him, and the latter looked thoroughly pleased.

Yuki still could not keep pets at home. Even though this cat was not small at all. So he could only tell his family that a roommate asked him to look after it for a few days, barely managing to fool them and get permission.

“Little Ki, mom wants to ask you something. Have you been in contact with a girl recently?”

Just as he was happily petting the cat, Yuki’s mother, who was rarely home, suddenly walked into his room.

“What? There’s such a thing?”

Hearing that, his body jolted, and Yuki decisively chose to play dumb. His mom was firmly against early dating. This absolutely could not let her know.

Studies came first, do not let early romance affect learning and life. This was something countless parents repeated until it was worn out. Paired with more obsessive ones, you might not even escape this kind of interference after entering university.

“Still pretending? I already know you’ve been hooking up with a girl recently.”

Yuki’s mother naturally did not believe him. Without sufficient confidence, she would not easily suspect her own son.

“You, just wait until you get into a good university. Once you enter society, there will be plenty of outstanding girls. You also know what kind of school Seventh High is. What level the girls there are at, you don’t know in your heart?”

She had opposed Yuki applying to Seventh High in the first place, but her son insisted, and she could not do something like changing his application behind his back like some unreasonable parents. But she had absolutely no good impression of Seventh High.

Although her son refused to say it, she knew the reason he insisted on choosing Seventh High.

‘It had to be that damn Eiru. What kind of bewitching potion did that little brat pour into my son?’

Fortunately, Yuki’s grades had not been affected. But as a mother who treated her son like the apple of her eye, she had already taken note of that so-called bad kid. If not for considering her son’s emotions and pride, she would have long gone to the other family to demand an explanation and issue a warning.

What was rather subtle though was that Eiru’s family had the opposite attitude. When they first learned that Eiru and Yuki were close, Ei Yuan and Liu Wan had also looked into him.

Then after checking, they found out the other side was a top student and a handsome school heartthrob. Wasn’t that far better than those hooligan punks outside? So the two naturally fully supported Eiru and Yuki associating with each other.

While hoping Eiru could learn good things from him, they even worried a bit whether their own son might end up corrupting someone else. But overall, these two families held completely opposite attitudes on the matter of these two kids’ friendship.

“But mom, I basically only interact with female classmates from my class… there’s no problem with my classmates, right?”

Yuki gave an awkward smile. He was not wrong either. After all, Eiru was indeed his classmate right now.

“That’s still not okay. Once it delays, it delays both of them. Anyway, you understand what I mean. If you’re already dating, hurry up and break it off. If you haven’t gone that far yet, then don’t deepen it.”

Even though her own son was her precious treasure, whose daughter was not their parents’ treasure too? Putting herself in their shoes, even if it was not those delinquent girls, Yuki’s mother still would not dare let her own pig go arching toward someone else’s tender cabbage.

“Uh, classmates are just normal interactions… mom knows my personality. I don’t really socialize much anyway…”

“Sounds nice. Then what about that Eiru? I told you not to associate with him. Did you listen? Anyway, today you must give me a promise and an explanation.”

“Alright, alright. I promise you right here, dear mom… other than people you approve of, I will only have close contact with my dorm roommates. Is that okay?”

Yuki helplessly made the promise. This was also a family rule in their household. Once a promise was formally made, it had to be kept, no matter what happened, it could not be broken.

“That’s more like it…”

Yuki’s mother’s furrowed brows eased a little.

“But mom still hopes you make more friends. Just not with those improper people, understand?”

Quite satisfied with her son’s promise, Yuki’s mother still did not know that the person she had been keeping in mind had long since become her precious son’s dorm roommate. This was something Yuki did not dare to say.
