Chapter 121: Episode 10.11 Worried
Yanyan’s playdate with his friends ended on a good note, with everyone’s relationship with each other taking a significant step up. Parent and son had a renewed view of each other, and the friends forged a stronger bond of friendship
At the back of everyone’s mind, it was a very magical time, and they couldn’t thank Shen Yuan more. For them, it was thanks to Shen Yuan and Yanyan for creating this opportunity. Song Yongnian and the other parents left with a smile and promised that this playdate would happen again.
This prompted Yanyan to be in great spirits; even when he was tired and sleepy, he still had the energy to jump around their bed. Shen Yuan was all smiles, watching his son. It seems like his son naturally has a social personality. He just wished that all the troubles that he experienced and will experience in the future would not take away his smile.
"I will do whatever it takes to protect that precious smile," the celestial fox spirit uttered his promise with a flame burning in his chest so hot that it would kill anyone stopping him from achieving that.
In order to make Yanyan relax and make him fall asleep, Shen Yuan exposed his tail before his son and let his cub use it as a blanket and pillow. Needless to say, Shen Yuan’s mini-me loved it.
"Daddy... Your snowy white tails are the best... It’s like the clouds are hugging me... But this... So warm... So fluffy... I like it better than my favorite Huhu the Fox stuff toy," The boy murmured as he drifted to sleep.
"Hahaha," Shen Yuan couldn’t stop himself from making a hushed laugh. "You silly boy..."
His heart feels full whenever he sees Yanyan worry-free like this. Honestly, it seems like today is one of the best days for him because he’s got to see Yanyan laugh and run around as if he is an energetic cub.
It was an almost perfect day. If only Bai Tingfeng were here.
Remembering the alpha, Shen Yuan checked the digital clock beside their table.
9:00 P.M.
It was considerably late compared to the usual time that Bai Tingfeng was home. Typically, that handsome S-Class alpha will be home by seven to eight in the evening, depending on whether he has a business meeting or just the usual office work. Since there haven’t been many appearances of A or S-rank dungeons in the Baihu Guild’s jurisdiction, Shen Yuan hasn’t seen Bai Tingfeng go on to enter a dungeon.
If that happens, then it is expected that the alpha will be away for at least a day or two. But he never heard any news that Bai Tingfeng had an emergency like that.
The only thing that he knew was that Bai Tingfeng went to his parent’s mansion for joint training with his father, Bai Weisheng. The two are S-Class swordsmen, so it’s natural that they will spar occasionally.
But is it normal to be this late?
Shen Yuan checked his phone to see if Bai Tingfeng messaged him where he was or what he was up to now, but nothing new popped up in his inbox. He checked his call logs in case he missed even a single call from Bai Tingfeng.
But there was none.
"Should I start worrying now?" Shen Yuan uttered in a low voice. He carefully fixed Yanyan’s sleeping position and stood up from the bed.
With a phone in his hand, Shen Yuan tapped his phone to type in a message for the alpha.
[Me: Tingfeng, is everything okay on your end? When are you going home? I’ll be wait—]
Shen Yuan stopped typing as realization dawned upon him. He reread the short line he constructed and couldn’t help but be conscious.
"Wait, won’t I sound like a lover with this?" The celestial fox spirit mumbled.
For some reason, the tips of his fingers were tingling, and his hands were cold as if he had touched ice. A delicious kind of nervousness is infecting every fiber of his being. It was a feeling that was hard for him to put a name on, but one thing was clear: he liked this feeling.
Shen Yuan dropped onto their velvet couch and held his heated cheeks as a crazy thought passed in his mind. Lover has a pleasant ring in it. The smile on his face seems impossible to erase.
He was in that state of daze when suddenly, their bedroom door swung open, and from there, Bai Tingfeng came in.
Shen Yuan was supposed to be cheerfully welcoming the man, but he stopped midway as he noticed something off about Bai Tingfeng.
From the usual sleek and gorgeously put-together style, the Bai Tingfeng he is seeing was noticeably disheveled. The alpha’s hair looked like he had just braved through a storm.
"Bai Tingfeng, what..." Shen Yuan stood up and went closer to Bai Tingfeng. His chest felt tight. Only then did he see the red, thin lines in the alpha’s arms, neck, and even his handsome face. Shen Yuan felt lingering healing power on these lines.
In an instant, Shen Yuan’s face changed as he identified these marks.
"Yuan..." Bai Tingfeng was left not knowing what to say. Despite having a certain level of understanding of his husband, he couldn’t put a name on Shen Yuan’s expression.
Nervousness made his heart skip. He subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva as he thought of a greeting to disperse the pressure he was feeling.
"I’m home, Yuan," Bai Tingfeng said gently and husky. The voice that could make every omega swoon for him. "I remembered you’re grilling some barbeque. I, uhm, hope that I’m not late for— Aw!"
Pak!
While Bai Tingfeng is acting all handsome and charming, Shen Yuan suddenly unleashes his fast hand and slaps the man’s rock-hard abdomen. The man winced in pain due to his sneaky attack.
"You’re injured," Shen Yuan said matter-of-factly. His expression didn’t change. It is the same unreadable enigma that draws Bai Tingfeng.
"Um," Bai Tingfeng carefully nodded. Not a second did his gaze leave the omega’s face. For some reason, he had a bad premonition coming his way.
"You told me you’re out training?" Shen Yuan asked in his low and freezing tone.
"Yes, I was with my father—" Bai Tingfeng didn’t get a chance to complete his sentence when suddenly, Shen Yuan walked past him with big, angry strides. The breeze that the omega’s movement created woke Bai Tintgfeng from his daze, and he quickly held on to Shen Yuan’s arm, stopping him before he even exited the room.
"Yuan, where are you going?"
To his surprise, Shen Yuan snapped at him, "Where do you think, Tingfeng? You said it was a simple training, but why are you all cut up? A bruise and minor wound are tolerable since it was a training. I get that! But it isn’t right to wound you so severely that even healing magic was useless!"
Shen Yuan tried to shake Bai Tingfeng’s grip off of him, but since the other had considerable physical strength, his effort was fruitless. "I’m going to give your father a piece of my mind! Let go!"
The celestial fox spirit’s voice was loud enough to disturb the sleeping kid nearby.
"Hmmm," Yanyan let out a sleepy groan. The innocent boy unknowingly acted like an angel who dispersed the tension between his parents.
"Yuan, let’s talk about this outside?" Bai Tingfeng hopefully looked at his omega.
The celestial fox spirit only sighed, frowning.
In the receiving area that overlooks their garden and small artificial lake, Shen Yuan sat beside each other on the couch. A medicine kit was propped open on the table, and the platinum-haired omega was holding a cotton ball wetted with a bright red antiseptic solution.
Each dab of the cotton ball on fine wounds was kind of forceful as it carried the unvented frustration of the celestial fox spirit.
What was bottled up deep inside him was an ugly concoction of worry, anger, irritation, and frustration!
The moment he saw Bai Tingfeng covered with wounds on his face and body, his reasoning just kind of shot down on its own. It was the first time he’d seen Bai Tingfeng in such a state, and he’s not liking it.
It almost drove him crazy thinking that someone, even if it was Bai Tingfeng’s family, had the gall to hurt Bai Tingfeng.
"Ouch!" Bai Tingfeng winced when Shen Yuan pushed the cotton harder on his injury. "Don’t be too rough, Yuan."
"Why, because it’s painful? You carelessly let yourself be hurt by whatever careless method you used, and this is the result! Don’t you dare whine about it being painful!" Shen Yuan said.
If he were a dragon, he would most likely spit fire on his nostrils. That’s how heated his feeling is now!
Bai Tingfeng shut his mouth and didn’t dare to push Shen Yuan’s button from now on.
But since the celestial fox spirit’s switch was flipped, Shen Yuan started rambling.
"Aish! Look at this wound! Even if it isn’t that thick, I could sense that it will not be easy to heal! Why would you let others hurt you like this? Don’t tell me that it’s part of training! If there’s someone who is allowed to hurt you, then it is me and only me!"
Suddenly, Bai Tingfeng held him by the wrist, stopping him from further abusing the handsome alpha’s wound.
"Yuan, are you... that worried about me?"
