The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor-Chapter 37: Candidate for the Children’s Mother

"That’s right, I’ve adopted Little Youli, she’s soon to be my daughter. Little Yuna and Little Youli are the same age, they also look alike and are both so adorable, so I feel quite happy raising two daughters."

Lynn nodded upon hearing this. His fondness for Little Yuna had a touch of affection by association, as she resembled his longtime buddy’s daughter in many ways. So when faced with two adorable twins, how could he have the heart to favor just one?

"Is it an adoption... well, that’s nice. Little Youli is so well-behaved that she deserves a father who cherishes her. But... young man, it’s not easy to raise a daughter without a woman in the household, right?"

Upon hearing Lynn say it’s adoption, Little Yuna’s grandmother sighed quietly. However, this wasn’t a major issue. The real problem for this young man was the lack of a proper woman, as fathers often find it inconvenient to raise daughters.

"This issue is not a problem; I’m striving to woo Xiya... ahem, pursue her. She has extensive experience in child-rearing and will definitely be able to nurture Little Youli and Little Yuna to be healthy and chubby."

Regarding this matter, Lynn was already prepared. With his amicable relationship with the Elf Race, it’s inherently easier to get along with young elf ladies. Although Xiya seems not easy to approach, he is exchanging sincerity for sincerity, not merely craving her appearance, so the hope should still be fairly high.

"Xiya, huh... If it’s her, then everything is certainly fine. But... many years of suitors have lined up from Celestial Destiny City to Victory City, encircling the World Tree a hundred times. Are you really confident you can win her over?"

It wasn’t that Little Yuna’s grandmother underestimated Lynn; she was just stating a fact.

Although Lynn is indeed handsome and attractive, compared to Xiya’s extraordinary beauty, the gap is still apparent. Moreover, Xiya is famously known as a cold beauty; aside from her enthusiasm toward children, she usually shows indifference to men pursuing her.

In the years she’s served as the director of the war orphanage, aka welfare center, in Victory City, she’s never been associated romantically with any man. Even His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Destiny Empire once summoned her, and rumors circulated that he intended to make her an imperial consort, but she outright rejected him, which displeased the very face-conscious Emperor.

However, even after rejecting the Celestial Destiny Emperor on Empire territory, Xiya did not suffer any repercussions. This can be attributed to her surname Belinda, which is identical to the new Elf Queen’s surname, with only two people in the entire Elf Race bearing the name Belinda...

Such an esteemed young lady of the Elf Race, or rather she could be considered the Prince of the Elf Kingdom herself, the difficulty in winning her over could surpass marrying three princesses from different empires!

"The confidence may be less than seventy percent, but my sincerity is one hundred percent."

Since Lynn dared to set his sights on Xiya, he naturally possessed some confidence; however, he’s not privy to Xiya’s exact thoughts, so his confidence wasn’t entirely full.

"Then work hard, since you have Little Youli to accompany you. Nana, if you want to care for her, then go ahead, as her parents are indeed quite irresponsible."

At this point, Little Yuna’s grandmother sighed with relief. She sincerely wished for Little Yuna to have a wonderful companion like Little Youli while growing up, ensuring her childhood would definitely be much happier.

As for Little Yuna’s parents’ opinions, they were unimportant. If they were unwilling to properly raise their daughter, why shouldn’t others assist in her care?

"Then henceforth, Little Yuna will dine at my house, and grandma, if you’re willing, you’re welcome to come along as well."

Of course Lynn must simultaneously invite Little Yuna’s grandmother; otherwise Little Yuna would indulge herself while her beloved grandmother gnawed on black bread. She naturally wouldn’t feel well.

"No need, an old woman spending two people’s living expenses can still improve my life."

Little Yuna’s grandmother said this as she affectionately stroked Little Yuna’s round head while she ate and listened, declining Lynn’s offer.

His desire to care for Nana was because Nana is adorable and could accompany Little Youli, but she herself was unrelated and couldn’t render any assistance, so how could she impose on others to care for her as well?

"If grandma doesn’t go, then Little Yuna won’t go either..."

Little Yuna was originally eating cheerfully, but upon hearing that grandma wouldn’t join for delicious food, remaining home to live on the meager funds given by her stingy parents, Little Yuna suddenly became unhappy.

"That’s not right, you need to grow, if you don’t eat properly, how will you marry if you remain small and skinny?"

Little Yuna’s grandmother pinched Little Yuna’s tender cheeks. With her abilities, she could merely keep Little Yuna alive, but the neighboring family could nourish her well. Who wouldn’t want their child to live a good life?

"Then Little Yuna will not marry ever, staying with grandma forever!"

The adorable little girl said this as she dived headfirst into grandma’s embrace, starting to act spoiled.

"You’re still young, you don’t understand. Grandma can’t accompany you forever, but once you marry, someone can be with you for a lifetime. You’ll understand when you meet a boy you like in the future."

Little Yuna’s grandmother patted Little Yuna’s back, speaking gently.

"Why tell kids such things? Grandma, you might as well come along; otherwise, Little Yuna will surely throw a tantrum."

Just as Lynn finished speaking, Little Yuna seemed to act in tandem, preparing to roll about in a small emotional upset.

"Then you may prepare an extra portion of food on your side for Little Yuna to bring to me. I still feel it’s better not to disturb your lives; after all, you’ll soon have a hostess, whether it’s Xiya or someone else."

Seeing Little Yuna acting unwilling to give up, her grandmother naturally couldn’t win against her. But considering that Lynn will soon have his own daughter and wife, an unrelated elder doesn’t fit in well, so she could only suggest such an option.

"Then grandma must eat well too, becoming plump!"

Hearing grandma relent, Little Yuna also sighed with relief.

She was only planning to eat and play with Lily, still living in her own home, as the two families were only separated by a wall. At that point, she could play anywhere she liked while always staying close to her grandma, as long as her grandma also ate obediently.

"Alright, alright. Nana must be fair and chubby too."

Little Yuna’s grandmother replied repeatedly. She no longer expected her son and daughter-in-law to be particularly kind, as only Little Yuna was her true hope.
