The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor-Chapter 61: Catherine Has a Man Now

Lynn’s reputation in the noble circles of Celestial Destiny City has skyrocketed, but to ordinary people, he’s just a handsome young man.

The handsome guy walks through the city with his adorable daughter, attracting some attention, though not enough to make him a focus.

That is, until Lynn knocks on Catherine’s front door. Before that, not many people noticed him, but then he brings his child and taps on the door, and a three-colored cat jumps out, climbing affectionately onto Lynn’s shoulder, suddenly drawing attention.

Catherine doesn’t live in the Noble District, yet she resides in an extremely bustling area.

Her home’s front door leads straight to a bustling street, surrounded by rows of shops, with residents and pedestrians buzzing around.

Catherine has lived here for eleven years, and everyone in the area knows her, although ordinary people might not realize she’s the niece of the Saint Emperor of Light, her status as a senior advisor at the Celestial Destiny Magic and Martial Arts Academy is well-known.

Of course, everyone knows about her single status, having been single for twenty-nine years; after all, when living without worries, who doesn’t love to gossip?

Since Catherine bought that house eleven years ago, no man has entered, not even any male creature—all the cats are female.

Lynn isn’t the first man to visit her house. Others have come and gone, but all were driven away by Catherine, and none were treated even with slight courtesy.

Now here’s another visitor, and he’s even brought a child. Catherine doesn’t care for the young master of a great noble family, but perhaps she might have a different opinion about this... Handsome young man is rather striking.

"Little Flower, I told you not to run around, you... Lynn? How did you find your way here?"

As the three-colored cat perched on the shoulder, Catherine pursues, opens the door intending to retrieve her usually wild cat, only to find the visitor is Lynn.

He knew Little Flower’s name, and the cat is so fond of him, so knowing her address isn’t surprising, but having parted ways just last night, finding her so early this morning is a bit unexpected for Catherine.

Is he so attached to Xiya? Missing her desperately after just a few hours?

Damn it, maybe he includes her too, Lynn’s intentions are blatantly obvious.

"Aren’t you going to invite me in?"

Clearly, the street isn’t the place for affectionate cozy moments with the wife, Lynn surveyed the surroundings and asked Catherine.

"Oh, please... come in."

Hearing Lynn’s words, Catherine hesitated for a moment, but then swiftly broke her household rule of no male guests and let Lynn inside.

After all, Lynn had done much for her, not to suggest she owes him her affection, but at least treating him as an esteemed guest; how could she not let him enter?

After eleven years, this is Lynn’s first time entering Catherine’s house.

This is Lynn’s thoughts.

After eleven years, Catherine finally has a man in her house...

These are the thoughts of nearby neighbors and passersby.

No matter what everyone thought, Lynn was already an honored guest at Catherine’s.

Entering Catherine’s home, Lynn unsurprisingly sees Xiya in the yard.

"Are you inviting us to join you in shopping with the child?"

Upon meeting her, Xiya immediately clarifies Lynn’s intent, rendering all his prepared lines void.

"Yes."

After quite some hesitation, Lynn, having been preempted, could only utter these two words.

"Then let’s go."

Xiya, speaking so, approaches and takes hold of Little Youli’s other hand, preparing to head out with Lynn.

Today, she’s wearing a lake-green long dress, her smooth green hair styled high in a ponytail trailing behind, appearing less like an Elf Race maiden in softness, but adding a touch of Warrior’s valor.

No matter what, Xiya’s appearance is impeccable, her style is always stunning, with no flaws to be found.

"Won’t you come in for tea before leaving?"

This is Lynn’s first time entering Catherine’s home, hardly having a chance to explore before they are to leave already.

"Catherine’s bedroom isn’t accessible to you, what’s the point of seeing anything else?"

Xiya swings Little Youli’s small hand, raising her eyes to question Lynn.

"True... cough, cough, I mean, let’s not keep the child waiting, let’s be on our way."

Xiya’s words were a wake-up call for Lynn, indeed, if not seeing the inner chambers, what’s there to explore in just living and dining areas? Better to spend more time in the bustling city with the wife and child.

"Am I going too?"

At this moment, Catherine points at herself and asks Xiya, already noticing Xiya is leading, Lynn can hardly respond to her.

"You’re the child’s godmother, should you go or not? Yesterday you didn’t even present a first meeting gift."

Xiya’s words leave Catherine speechless.

Emphasizing her role as the child’s godmother was Catherine’s doing, indeed she hadn’t bought anything for the child, and this trip seems inevitable.

It’s annoying, Xiya surely knows if she were alone with Lynn and the child, she’d be relentlessly pursued; thus bringing her along as the powerful deterrent, she’s being used as a shield.

So, the sulking Catherine, the delighted Little Youli, and the smiling Xiya accompany Lynn outdoors.

These two beautiful women, with an adorable little girl, indeed make for a charming scene on the streets, if it weren’t for the handsome guy tagging along.

Although individually he is quite striking, mingling within the group makes him seem rather insufferable.

Probably another young master from a great noble family; only they can be so ostentatious. Who wouldn’t hide such a beautiful wife, fearing drawing the eyes of noble playboys, and flaunting a stunning group outdoors, likely indicates his father is at least a Duke?

After Catherine being single for so many years, she ultimately couldn’t avoid marrying into a wealthy family, seemingly not even as the main wife, with the other beside her far more imposing, while Catherine appears rather deflated.

The entire morning, Lynn leads two adults and the little one shopping around, without even a single noble playboy causing trouble, leaving Lynn relieved amidst boredom.

He’s not the type who can’t resist showing off, also dislikes drama; from Xiya’s experience and Catherine’s age, such pig-and-tiger performances wouldn’t fool them and would only make him seem foolish.

Looks like Celestial Destiny Emperor intervened; surely now the whole city’s nobles recognize his face, he must fear offending him.

In consideration of your sensibility, let you enjoy another day, after letting his wife and child have fun shopping, Lynn plans on visiting the Emperor’s beautiful daughter tonight and "checking in" at the Imperial City tomorrow.
