Master Bai! This Celestial Fox Spirit Is Asking For Divorce
Chapter 138: Episode 12.5 The Biggest Shit

Chapter 138: Episode 12.5 The Biggest Shit

Madam Zhen’s "free" custom-made combat hanfu isn’t cheap. Considering the top-notch material that could only be found in high-ranking dungeons and cutting-edge technology that’s applied in that silky wardrobe, the material costs already reach— at least—300,000 dollars in cold cash. The fee for the crafter’s workmanship is still not included in that estimate.

Madam Zhen is the best magic item crafter in the country so, she’s guaranteed to be expensive.

All in all, the total amount could reach up to 1 million dollars.

In all fairness, it’s an amount that Bai Tingfeng could pay off without batting an eye.

However, for a brand deal for a currently dormant model like Shen Yuan— even though he’s considered a supermodel, this is a jaw-dropping amount.

Even the celestial fox spirit was taken aback when he heard how much this single hanfu costs. Well, who would blame him? He was just a wandering fox spirit who possessed regular working people before he got transmigrated into this world!

Shen Yuan was really shaken by the cost.

Bai Tingfeng noticed that his husband was in utter disbelief, so he explained that all equipment that would be used for dungeons was indeed costly due to the rarity of materials used in crafting it.

The metals and other materials found in the earth’s natural resources inflict little to no effect on monsters so, even the most basic swords sold in the market are forged from the metals mined from dungeons. Which by estimate, would cost around 5,000 dollars.

One thing crossed Shen Yuan’s mind: being a hunter is goddamn expensive!

Calming himself, Shen Yuan thoughtfully considered this proposition and weighed the pros and cons.

Chairman Mao already said to him that his connections in the entertainment industry would be utilized in their mission along the way. So, this brand deal is a good start, and might as well add that it’s a high-paying job!

But the dilemma happens in how he will juggle it with his sprouting career in the Hunter Association and his mission. Shen Yuan is afraid that there will be a time conflict.

"We are willing to adapt to your schedule, Shen Yuan!" Madam Zhen tightened her clutches on Shen Yuan. There’s no way in hell she will let go of a buzzmaker like this omega.

"Besides, the commercial ad that we have in mind is featuring you in action. We want to showcase to the world how the first S-Class omega slay monsters with our new magic items for mages. So, we might be shooting the advertisement while you are at work."

Shen Yuan took a moment to think about it.

"Actually, as of this moment, I instructed my assistants to reach out to Chairman Mao to ask for a collaboration with the Hunter Association. He might be calling you one of these days to inform you about it," Madam Zhen pressed harder this time.

Meanwhile, Bai Tingfeng and Yanyan were looking at Shen Yuan with smiles on their faces. They couldn’t believe that their daddy and husband were this desirable.

Yanyan subconsciously popped his chest up. That’s his Daddy!

Shen Yuan reflexively took a step back. What’s with this great enthusiasm?! He didn’t expect that his market value would be this high!

"It’s not obvious that you prepared everything ahead of time," Shen Yuan deadpanned.

The strict face of Madam Zhen shone brighter, looking satisfied. "Did I tell you that I’ve been waiting for you?"

Actually, she already prepared everything ahead of time. The photographer, the equipment, and the other staff. Everything and everyone is just waiting for her go-signal. That’s how determined he is to get Shen Yuan.

And as if on cue, his phone started ringing.

It’s a video call from Chairman Mao. With great reluctance, he swiped his finger to the green button.

The old chairman’s face appeared closer than it should be, making the front camera focus on his pores and wrinkles beside his eyes.

"Shen Yuan, you’re doing a great job! You can shoot the advertisement as early as tomorrow!" Chairman Mao said hurriedly.

"Wait, what?" Is it okay to be this casual in business dealings? Shouldn’t there be haggling first before reaching an agreement? Strictly speaking, this is a government-to-private venture so, shouldn’t there be a formal talk at least?

"It’s okay, Shen Yuan. You’re an S-Class awakener so, I wouldn’t be strict with your business outside your job, and besides, it’s about time to create an effective PR stunt for the Hunter Association," Chairman Mao said. "I humbly ask you to work hard on that."

"Huh?" Is it just him or Chairman Mao is acting a little less like a rascal?

Suddenly, Chairman Mao’s end became chaotic but Chairman Mao fixed it in a jiffy.

This time, he held it properly to show his full face and said with a meaningful smile, "I’ll be busy after this call so before I end it. Let me give you my final order."

Hearing this, Shen Yuan looked at Chairman Mao with a little worry. This old man is not doing something dangerous and he will not see this man’s face in the obituaries the next morning, right?

"Be the biggest shit in the street so, those people will have no choice but to notice you. Jiayou!"

"What jiayou?! Hey! How dare you call me sh— that!" Shen Yuan’s voice raised a few octaves, startling Madam Zhen, Bai Tingfeng, and Yanyan.

He shouldn’t have thought the best of this man! He almost made him say something bad in front of his son. Damn it!

He wanted to strangle the old chairman especially when he heard what was happening in the other line.

"Chairman Mao, the conference is about to start. Do you still need time—"

"No, I’m just talking to a cheeky youngster. No big deal." And the line died after that, leaving Shen Yuan’s face red.

"Calm down, Yuan. Chairman Mao is just kidding," Bai Tingfeng walked quietly beside his husband while Yanyan held his Daddy’s hand and tried to massage the palm with his tiny hands.

"But that hmmm!" Shen Yuan said with passionate irritation.

In the end, he only vented his frustration on Bai Tingfeng’s meaty legs and squished it like a stress ball with his free hand.

"Daddy, Yanyan will reprimand Grandpa Mao once we meet again. Please don’t be angry," the boy continued massaging his daddy’s hand in an attempt to bring comfort.

If this is a common sight for the Bai Family, then that’s not the case for someone out of the circle.

Madam Zhen’s mouth was agape as she was looking at Shen Yuan. Wow, that’s the first time he saw S-Class awakeners interacting like that.

Are they always friendly like that? Although he’d seen all the S-Class awakeners in Country S in person since they were also her clients, he’d never seen them interact so freely like that.

Most of them are stiff and formal towards each other due to the silent competition. This is particularly true for the ones who are in the same generation.

"I didn’t expect you to be that close with Chairman Mao."

Shen Yuan looked at Madam Zhen sharply. "Excuse me?"

"N-nothing. Just a slip of the tongue," the proud madam internally touched her chest. All this time, she could pull the high and might card towards other S-Class awakeners but for some reason, her guts failed her to pull that off when it came to Shen Yuan.

As their conversation went on, it made her look at Shen Yuan in a different light.

The omega before her is not just a newbie. Shen Yuan has the right attitude to take charge and dominate.

And he’s doing it with charisma, so it’s difficult for people to hate him for it.

Madam Zhen added another reason to make Shen Yuan the face of her Crimson Anvil.

"So, shall my team accompany you tomorrow?" Madam Zhen asked.

Obviously, she wouldn’t take no for an answer. There’s no way he will let all the trouble he went through go down the drain.

Shen Yuan closed his eyes to reset the system that Chairman Mao forced to crash. "The proposal was good and I want to say yes immediately. However, I have one concern that forbids me to sign the brand deal."

Madam Zhen’s expression immediately fluctuated. What is it? What is it this time?!

She took a deep breath to rein in her emotions. The only thing that kept her sane and calm was the thought that her goal was just inches away.

"Okay. We will do this together. What concern do you have? I will help you to the best of my abilities."

Yanyan gasp in appreciation to Madam Zhen’s seemingly kind and caring words, "Wow, Daddy. This aunty is a good person. I like him now."

On the other hand, Bai Tingfeng shook his head. The madam’s intention is as clear as the day.

What she meant was, "Once we sort this problem then, I wouldn’t take no for an answer!"

However, the alpha just let it be because Madam Zhen’s proposal is indeed good.

Shen Yuan pouted his lips to hide his smile. "Well, the thing is..."
