265 Like mother, like daughter

Cao Mei did not immediately approach Wu Long as he was still with the others, instead readying herself. Even though Wei Lan encouraged her, she was still not sure if he would accept her.

She first peeked out of the corner as the sounds of laughter were resounding in the room and waved to her mother, who immediately stood up and approached her.

“What is it Mei’er?”

Cao Xiang was led to her daughter’s room and as the door was hurriedly closed asked her visibly excited daughter.

“M… mother, I will ask you one question… I want you to tell me truthfully, and also not worry about anything else but your true opinion…”

She said as she had to ascertain her mother’s happiness would not be disturbed by her selfishness. The glimmer of hope she saw when she was told that Wu Long might agree to let them both become his women was now held back only by the possibility that her mother was not ready to accept it.

“What is it Mei’er, you’re scaring me”

Cao Xiang looked as the short haired beauty with some worry since it was the first time she was so agitated since they made up and also the first time she was talking in such cryptic way.

“Just tell me you will”

“Okay, I will, what is it?”

“If… if I… started a relationship with Wu Long… although I am not sure if he will accept me, but if he does, will you be okay with it?

Ah! I am not saying for you to break up with him, I mean… I… w-what?”

“…, …, pft…puhah…puhahahaha!”

As Cao Mei first asked the question, she then realized that it may sound as if she was asking her mother to give way to her, and as she rattled off the explanation her words gradually trailed off as she saw her mother first smile and then start silently laughing, her laughter getting stronger and gradually becoming audible as she could not hold it in.

“hahaha! Aaaahahaha!”

The Pirate Queen finally could not hold back and held her stomach as she almost folded in two.

“W-what is it? Mom!”

Cao Mei looked at her mother with wide eyes as she was laughing uncontrollably, harder than she ever saw her laugh.

“haha… fyu~,of course there is no problem in that, Mei’er, I would be happy for you since you would know what a real happiness means then”

Cao Xiang finally calmed down and after taking a moment to settle down turned to her daughter with a tender smile, a joy of a mother who wants the best for her child in her eyes as she knew that Wu Long would make her daughter happy. She raised her hand and caressed Cao Mei’s head over her hair.

“R-really? You will not oppose it?”

“Really”

“Be honest with me”

“I am, dear”

Cao Mei looked into her mother’s eyes to determine if she was not lying and then a blissful smile started to grow on her face.

“Thank you, Mom!!!

Um… but why were you laughing?”

Cao Mei first hugged her mother with a cry of joy and a shiny smile, as the latter hugged her back. And then asked her as she leaned back to look at the Pirate Queen again.

“Oh, haha, I didn’t imagine you truly would be okay with it just as he said you would… we really are a mother and daughter, both fell for one guy… and both were worrying over giving way to each other while there was no such problem in the first place”

“Haha, I see”

Cao Mei blushed a little as she realized that the man she fell for has already implicitly accepted her.

“I must say, you have a good taste in men”

Cao Xiang then chuckled and Cao Mei slightly blushed but smiled in return.

“Haha, oh come on Mother, have a little modesty, there’s really no need to praise yourself too much is there?”

She then replied and both of them laughed.

Wu Long came up to the second floor and as his eyes flashed with profound light his eyebrow slightly raised up.

‘Huh, interesting’

He thought to himself but his attention then turned to the group of women in front who started parting to their own rooms.

After sending off his beauties to sleep with a kiss to each one went to his room. As he turned around the corner he saw a short-haired beauty with hazel eyes, standing not far from the door, seemingly waiting for him.

As usual she wore very tight small shorts that exposed her long and slender legs and today a white shirt that she tied not far below her ample chest, the buttons straining to keep the chest within covered.

Wu Long smiled at her and she blushed as she looked at him with a glint of nervousness and excitement in her eyes. ｏｖ𝚕．ｃｏ𝚖

Wu Long chuckled as he noticed a certain nervous and doting mother peeking from a corner of the corridor to the side, still entertaining a thought that he did not see her. It seems that prior to him coming into view Cao Mei was actively gesturing, likely telling her mother to go away and that she would be fine, since at the moment he saw her she quickly put her hands down.

“Um… M…mis… Wu Long… can I come in? I-… I want to talk to you”

Cao Mei first wanted to say ‘Mister Wu’, but remembering him always saying to call him by name changed her address.

“Sure, it would be my pleasure”

He smiled and opened the door for her, entering and closing it behind him when she passed through.

“This might be sudden… or not… I don’t know. But…I liked you from the time I first met you, and more and more since… and…”

Cao Mei spoke as her face was getting redder and redder.

‘Heh, like mother, like daughter’

Wu Long inwardly chuckled at the way they both got red in the same way.

“You do not have to be so nervous, as I am sure you know my answer already, just say what you want”

Wu Long approached her, a charming smile on his face, his words said with a soothing calm tone.

She looked at him as her eyes slightly widened and she stopped fidgeting, as if enchanted looking into his eyes. She then closed her eyes and took a deep breath, calming down her nervousness. When she opened her eyes again, she looked straight at him with a determined look.

“I want to become yours”

Wu Long’s smile turned slightly wider as he came right in front of her.

“Well said, my little pirate princess”

He chuckled, and she sprung at him, her arms wrapping around his neck while his wrapped around her waist as their lips met in a passionate, vigorous kiss.

I will not deprive you of the thing you want in later scenes XD
