Chapter 34 – It Isn’t Over Yet

After saying this, Yeye seemed as if she had used up all her courage, her face turning red as she lowered her head.

At this moment, Yeye truly felt that she was even more despicable and cunning than her sister… clearly knowing that the other party had a wife, yet still doing this……

She did not have her sister’s conversational skills, nor did she have her sister’s seductive figure.

She was merely using this clumsy excuse to arrange another outing alone with Mr. Faang.

The two instances of physical contact with Mr. Faang, and constantly seeing what he was like outside of work, had already caused her, as a half-succubus, to develop a feeling of “not being satisfied” and “wanting more.”

It was only… after making contact and then becoming aware of Sister Farin, that she could regain her clarity.

“No problem. Choosing to become an adventurer is indeed one of life’s major decisions. Since I have such experience, I’ll definitely help.”

Faang smiled and agreed.

At the same time, he noticed Yeye lowering her head, and thought she was nervous or afraid he would laugh at her, so he gently added, “And becoming an adventurer isn’t a ridiculous thing. Although there’s no guarantee, with Miss Yeye’s magical talent, after training, there’s a chance you might receive an invitation from a magic academy.”

“An invitation from a magic academy? I… I can still go to school at my age and with my race?”

Yeye was clearly filled with longing at what Faang said.

She recalled that yesterday Sister Farin had discussed with her that Sister Farin’s younger sister also seemed to be coming home for the holidays.

“Of course there’s no problem. A magic academy is similar to a university.”

Faang paused for a moment, then switched to an easier explanation.

“Miss Yeye can understand it as an advanced training organization for magic-user professions. There’s no age limit, and because of the war, there are many other races studying there.”

“So that’s how it is… Mr. Faang knows so much because Sister Farin’s younger sister studies there, right…?”

Yeye pressed her lips together and asked tentatively.

“It seems my wife has already told Miss Yeye… yes.”

Faang was taken aback, his gaze becoming somewhat complicated.

It seemed that Sister Farin’s so-called “joke” really hadn’t deceived him.

“Mm… because yesterday Sister Farin wanted to discuss with me… about Miss Ailin coming home for the holidays… so she told me.”

Yeye softly hummed, her breathing growing a little heavier, “And… and Sister Farin also told me… to pretend… to accompany Mr. Faang……”

She did not say the rest directly.

Faang naturally knew what she meant, and even he did not know how to respond.

“Ah… about that matter… Miss Yeye can take it as… how should I put it… a joke.”

“No… no, I don’t think that was Sister Farin’s joke. Sister Farin’s eyes were very lonely at the time. As her younger sister, I can understand… Sister Farin’s feelings and her affection for her younger sister, so… so I think that wasn’t a joke at all!”

When she heard Mr. Faang about to refuse, Yeye’s emotions became agitated.

“I can also understand Sister Farin’s unwillingness to give up, but if that’s the case…”

Faang’s gaze grew even more complicated.

“It would be a bit too strange, wouldn’t it?”

He did not say this out loud.

Letting Miss Yeye pretend to be his wife to deal with Ailin—both the starting point and Miss Yeye’s intentions were good.

“Sorry… sorry, Mr. Faang, I got a bit emotional, but I truly think this way. I believe Sister Farin’s method is… a last resort. Even with such thoughts, I want to share some of the burden for you.”

Yeye realized her loss of composure and looked around, discovering that no one had noticed her.

She genuinely wanted to help Sister Farin and Mr. Faang shoulder some of the matter, only that her thoughts were mixed with some impure ideas.

“I understand Miss Yeye’s feelings, but Ailin still has several days before returning.”

Faang slightly brushed the topic aside, but having already gained a **[Corruption Level]**, he had begun to notice the thoughts of women other than his wife, so he did not directly refuse.

Facing the silent Yeye, he changed the subject.

“When Ailin gets here, Miss Yeye can ask her more about the magic academy, and don’t forget to discuss it with Sister Yelei. Just take it as advice between partners. I can also talk to Sister Farin when I go back.”

“Advice between partners… mm, I understand. And since Mr. Faang and I are partners… I’ll help Mr. Faang.”

Yeye nodded, then her tone softened.

“Then afterward… I’ll be in your care, Mr. Faang.”

No matter what, Mr. Faang did not refuse her next invitation.

“It’s nothing more than a small favor.”

Faang smiled, and Yeye’s serious tone was also imprinted in his mind.

“What are you two chatting about behind your sister’s back?”

Yelei’s teasing voice appeared together with the sound of the door opening behind them.

The two turned around and saw that Yelei now had two more bags in her hands.

Added to what she had bought earlier, she looked very much like a housewife returning from grocery shopping.

“N-nothing… I’ll tell Sister about this in a few days…”

Yeye spoke before Faang could.

She did not want her sister to know about these things.

Yelei’s expression became complicated.

She had overheard some of what was said just now.

However, she did not ask directly, instead smiling lightly.

“Yeye already has her own secrets… alright, as your sister, I’ll of course wait for my little sister to tell me herself. But Yeye can’t stop me from asking Brother Ang~”

The next moment, she looked at Faang and smiled.

“So, Brother Ang, can you tell Sister Yelei?”

Yeye hurried behind Yelei and placed her hands on Yelei’s shoulders.

“I said I’ll tell you later! Let’s go, didn’t Sister want to stroll around some more?”

“Sister Yelei should trust Miss Yeye. Hearing it from Miss Yeye feels different than hearing it from me.”

Faang smiled.

He only thought Yeye was afraid that Yelei would worry about her wanting to become an adventurer.

“Hehe… since Brother Ang says so, then I’ll wait for Yeye to speak up herself.”

Yelei said with a smile.

“Then next, shall we go somewhere else?”

“Sure, but… why did Sister Yelei buy two bottles of sparkling wine?”

Faang asked curiously.

“That’s a secret~ Brother Ang will know when it’s time to go home.”

Yelei blinked.

“…Then as payment for telling me the secret later, how about I help you carry the things?”

Faang proposed. His thought was simple—he could not let Sister Yelei and Miss Yeye carry the things while still arranging the next itinerary.

Moreover, as the only male partner, helping out a bit was fine.

What’s more, Yelei had helped a lot when buying underwear for his wife and had tolerated his behavior.

“Is that so? Then Yeye and I won’t be polite. We’ll leave it to you.”

Yelei paused for a moment, did not refuse, and handed over their things.

As expected… she could not refuse Brother Ang’s request, whether it was this… or something else.

Or perhaps, if Brother Ang could ask something of her… it might make her feel better inside, and her actions might become bolder?

Of course, that was only her own assumption……

The following time passed quickly.

It was mostly spent choosing things for Ailin and letting Yeye broaden her horizons, interspersed with some casual chatting among the three.

Moreover, the change in identity and the small incident in the morning had reduced the sense of restraint between them.

In the blink of an eye, it was time to prepare to return.

After four in the afternoon.

The three arrived at the place where the *[Disguise Magic]*was cast, placed the items on the ground temporarily, and then Faang dispelled the *[Disguise Magic]*on the two of them.

Watching her sister return to her original appearance, Yeye felt a sense of loss, because it meant that today’s time of getting along with Mr. Faang as a human was about to end.

Next, this opportunity seemed to exist only… in the matter that Sister Farin had discussed.

This made Yeye feel somewhat sad.

If she and her sister had been human from the beginning, that would have been great… then she could openly invite Mr. Faang……

And Yelei, looking at Yeye, had the same thought.

If it weren’t for being half-succubi, perhaps her relationship with Brother Ang would be better, perhaps her relationship with Miss Ailin would be better, perhaps it would save him a lot of trouble.

Perhaps… there would be a greater chance for Brother Ang to ask her for some special requests.

But she also knew that Brother Ang would not do that, and moreover… she still had not fulfilled the “succubus’s repayment.”

Such emotions did not last long.

Faang had already picked up all the items and looked at them with a smile.

“Time to go.”

The first to respond was Yelei.

She looked at Faang under the gentle afternoon sunlight and said, “Hehe… next is the road home. Brother Ang doesn’t need to help anymore.”

“Since I’m already helping, I might as well help to the end. Sister Yelei still hasn’t told me the secret of buying two bottles of wine.”

Faang joked, something rare for him.

“A secret? The secret is… this bottle of wine is a gift from Yeye and me to Brother Ang and Miss Ailin.”

Yelei smiled.

Faang was somewhat surprised and hesitated before refusing.

“This… Sister Yelei and Miss Yeye work so hard to live, something like this……”

“I can’t pretend I didn’t see Brother Ang’s nostalgic look.”

After saying this, Yelei walked to Faang’s side, interrupted his words, and stared at him.

“And precisely because we’re partners, we need to make up for the previous gift. Besides… Brother Ang should trust Sister Yelei’s arrangements.”

Yeye also walked over and said with a smile, “And… and later we’ll need to trouble Mr. Faang, so please, Mr. Faang… no, please accept it without pressure, as a ‘partner’……”

“Then… thank you, Sister Yelei and Miss Yeye. Sister Farin will surely be happy when she knows.”

Faang no longer refused and nodded. Refusing again would be disrespectful.

Looking at Mr. Faang like this…

Yeye suddenly did not feel so sad anymore.

If she and her sister were not “half-succubi,” perhaps they would not have met Mr. Faang.

And moreover… she and Mr. Faang still had a next appointment.

The relationship was not over.
