Chapter 443: Chapter 441: What Do You Want to Do to Your Mother-in-Law? (2)
Sui inhaled softly, noticing the familiar scent in the air. "Alice, did you spray your mother's perfume?" he asked curiously.
Alice wrapped her arms around Sui's neck, her burgundy eyes gleaming with a touch of pride. "Yeah, I did. Why? What's the matter?" she replied playfully.
Sui felt a little uneasy. "Alice, maybe we should leave your mother's room. It doesn't feel right to be here, and shouldn't you change back into your own clothes?"
He could still detect the faint fragrance of Leonora lingering on the pajamas Alice was wearing. Whenever he embraced her, it made him feel as though he was holding his mother-in-law, which left him with an odd sense of discomfort. However, he was too embarrassed to admit this directly to Alice.
"Why? I wear her pajamas all the time when I sleep with her," Alice retorted, wrinkling her nose in a cute, yet defiant manner. She puffed out her cheeks, clearly displeased with his suggestion.
Sui paused, realizing she had a point. Perhaps he was overthinking it.
Alice stepped onto Sui's feet, her small, pale toes pressing into his. She gazed up at him, her eyes twinkling with mischief, and planted a kiss on his lips. At about 1.65 meters tall, she was a few centimeters taller than her cousin, Erina.
Sui wrapped his arms around her slender waist, indulging in the moment, until Alice abruptly pulled away. She cleared her throat and then, in an exaggerated imitation of her mother's tone and demeanor, placed her hands elegantly in front of her and smiled. "Oh, Sui-kun, is it you again? It's been such a long time. You've become even more charming!"
Sui couldn't help but smile at her antics, though he was unsure whether to laugh or scold her.
"What's the matter? Don't you want to call me 'Auntie'?" Alice asked, frowning in mock annoyance. She placed her hands on her hips and added sternly, "That's very rude of you!"
Sui shook his head, chuckling inwardly at Alice's playful imitation of her mother. "Alice, come on, stop it," he urged gently.
"Stop what? Quickly bow and greet your aunt, or I'll be angry!" Alice insisted, grinning triumphantly as she continued her playful charade.
Seeing how stubbornly she persisted, Sui decided to play along. He pinched her soft chin, smirking as he teased, "How about you call me hubby instead?"
Alice raised her eyebrows, her expression shifting to one of feigned outrage. "How dare you, Sui-kun! Teasing your own mother-in-law? You've gone too far!"
Sui simply laughed, wrapping his arms around her again and pulling her close. "Well, what if I do tease you? What are you going to do about it?"
Alice playfully hit him with her small fists, her voice rising in mock anger. "What do you think you're doing to your mother-in-law? Let go of me right now!"
But Sui tightened his grip, pinning her wrists with one hand as he pressed her down onto the bed where Leonora usually slept. His other hand began to tickle her, causing Alice to squirm helplessly beneath him.
"Call me hubby," he demanded with a grin as he continued his tickling assault.
"Ah! It tickles! Stop, stop!" Alice cried out, half-laughing, half-crying as she struggled to free herself from his grip. Her body trembled with laughter, but Sui held her wrists firmly, leaving her no chance to escape.
"You're so rude! I'm your mother-in-law!" she exclaimed through giggles. "Haha, you shameless guy! You're actually doing this to your mother-in-law... It's too much! Please, let me go!"
Eventually, Alice couldn't stand it any longer. Tears of laughter streamed down her face as she pleaded, "Okay, okay, I was wrong! Hubby, please, stop!"
"Now you admit you were wrong, huh?" Sui chuckled, looking down at her triumphantly. "Call me husband."
"Husband," Alice murmured begrudgingly, her voice tinged with both frustration and defeat.
Satisfied, Sui finally released her, allowing her to catch her breath. As they lay there, he suddenly realized they were both sprawled on Leonora's bed, surrounded by her scent.
"Alice, we really should leave," Sui suggested once more, his discomfort growing.
"What's the big deal?" Alice puffed out her cheeks again, clearly not ready to stop. "Mom's not here, and I sleep in her room all the time!"
Sui raised an eyebrow. "You're old enough now—don't you think it's time to stop sleeping with your mom?"
Alice huffed, crossing her arms defiantly. "Why not? My mom and I are really close."
In truth, Alice's relationship with her mother was exceptionally strong. Leonora, despite her age, often acted as playful as a girl herself, making their bond feel more like that of sisters rather than mother and daughter. Sui recalled Alice once teasing Leonora during the Autumn Elections, and her mother hadn't been upset in the slightest.
Alice, still full of energy, bounced around on the bed, quickly making a mess of her mother's neatly arranged bedding. Then, with a smug grin, she put her hands on her hips and began teasing Sui again.
"Sui-kun, when you see your mother-in-law, shouldn't you kneel and greet her properly?" she declared, looking down at him imperiously while planting one of her small, pale feet on his head.
Sui rolled his eyes, grabbing her ankle and pulling her down with a yelp. He pinned her to the bed again, both of them laughing as they wrestled playfully.
As the moments passed, the playful atmosphere became more charged, and their breaths grew heavier.
"You... you pervert! What are you planning to do to your mother-in-law in her own room?" Alice exclaimed, her face flushed as she felt Sui's hands becoming more daring.
But Sui ignored her protests, feeling that if Alice was willing to keep up the game, he might as well continue.
"Ah, you shameless guy! Let go of me! You wouldn't dare do this to your own mother-in-law, would you?" Alice protested, her voice becoming increasingly nervous. "Don't rip my pajamas! Mom will know if you damage them!"
Sui laughed at her concern. "Are you still playing the role of Auntie?"
Alice pouted, wrinkling her nose in frustration. "I'm done pretending!"
A short while later, Sui managed to strip her out of the borrowed pajamas, revealing her snow-white skin beneath.
It was then that Sui's expression changed slightly. Not only had Alice borrowed her mother's pajamas... she had also worn her panties.
