Chapter 199: Episode 18.6 The Parent’s Decision
Since Gu Jinpeng entered the exclusive hot spring resort, something inside him has kept him restless. No matter what he does, he keeps looking toward the woodland and hot springs.
"Oh, you want to experience the hot spring, too?" Assistant Su, Gu Jinpeng’s trusted companion, suddenly asked him when they were on their way back from the bamboo forest. At this moment, their bosses are probably enjoying the famous hot spring here.
Gu Jinpeng didn’t respond or nod.
’That’s not it... It feels like something is watching us through the shadows.’ He thought of saying it, but since it was unfounded and even his Master Shen didn’t seem to notice, he just left it in the back of his mind. It’s probably just his imagination or his overthinking.
Since his powers concern the shadow, he is susceptible to the changes in the shadows around him. Pretty useful if his senses are accurate, but it is a pity it isn’t. More often than not, the tingling sensation is just caused by petty, irrelevant things.
’It could be just critters.’ He assured himself. It might not be obvious, but the entire resort is teeming with security trained by the Bai family. There’s little to no possibility that an enemy is lurking.
Seeing that Gu Jinpeng didn’t reply. He just thought that the fellow alpha was too shy to admit it.
"Don’t worry. I think our bosses will come back after an hour. We can use the hot springs by then," Assistant Su said. "I’ve been serving the Bai family for years now, and believe me, they have the best attitude toward their employees. Bathing in a hot spring wouldn’t touch their bottom line."
Gu Jinpeng didn’t correct the misunderstanding and just went with the flow.
True to his words, Su Yifan looked for him with complete bath essentials in hand an hour later. Gu Jinpeng was utterly speechless. It turns out that Assistant Su was the excited one between them!
Gu Jinpeng silently changed his clothes into robes and followed his fellow alpha in the spirit of socializing.
They were threading the cobblestone path towards the bathhouse when they crossed paths with their bosses. All three of them looked handsome and fresh, nothing unusual.
However, they noticed their Young Master was already fast asleep in Master Bai Tingfeng’s arms. By the looks of it, soaking in the hot spring helped their young master to relax. The fatigue from a whole day of playing finally kicked in.
"Oh, taking a bath?" Shen Yuan lightly asked.
The alpha assistant and the former assassin answered humbly. Looking at the S-Class omega’s face. It could be said that he didn’t find any problem and wordlessly permitted it.
Then suddenly, Shen Yuan’s face brightened as if an idea was lighted in his head.
"Anyone could bathe tonight, but not you, Gu Jinpeng," Shen Yuan said with a bright smile. "You’re on babysitting duties tonight."
"Eh?" Assistant Su and Gu Jinpeng looked at their omega boss, bewildered. Are the two masters going out this late in the night?
Shen Yuan probably read the surprise and questions on their faces; thus, he explained—a mischievous smirk played around his lips.
"Do you think we will just sleep it off when we are in this beautiful and romantic face? Your Master Bai and I need alone time to cultivate our feelings with each other."
All of a sudden, the atmosphere turned stale. Not to mention Bai Tinfeng, even the two alpha assistants blushed in their faces. That is too much for a TMI!
The celestial fox spirit giggled like a rascal in the side.
Bai Tingfeng cleared his throat, trying to regain the composure the crumbled.
"Your Master Shen is joking. Just kindly accompany our son to our room. We will enter the bamboo forest to train, so I expect none of you will loiter around the area. Understood?"
"I-we understand, Guild master/ Master Bai!" The two assistants answer in chorus. There’s still a hangover due to Shen Yuan’s dirty joke, but they are still reasonable at the very least.
"Oh, it’s gonna be an outdoor fun!" Shen Yuan suggestively uttered, rolling his tongue.
Knowing that his husband was just teasing him, Bai Tingfeng just bit his lips and pulled his omega towards their room. Assistant Su and Gu Jinpeng noiselessly followed the boss, not trying to disturb the pink bubbles around the alpha and omega.
Upon reaching their suite, Bai Tingfeng carefully settled Yanyan in the center of the king bed. The snoring little man was knocked out after playing with Mammy Yin.
"Good night, Yanyan," Bai Tingfeng kissed his son on the forehead. Shen Yuan also leaned forward for a kiss. "Good night, baby."
The alpha and omega stared at each other’s eyes, and a flash of understanding was revealed in their eyes.
When Shen Yuan told Bai Tingfeng about Chairman Mao’s suggestion, there was already an answer.
Both of them choose what’s best for their son. Yanyan’s safety is their top priority, but they also want Yanyan to enjoy his childhood. Kindergarten is a fleeting phase in Yanyan’s life. If they let it go, then what’s left of their son?
Other kids will remember their childhood playing and studying with their friends, and they want this to be the case with Yanyan, too. They don’t want their son to be left out and alone.
Bai Tingfeng is especially critical about this matter because, as an only child, although his childhood is not that bad compared to others, he still gets to experience what it’s like to be alone. And it is not a very pleasant feeling.
That’s why Chairman Mao’s suggestion is fragrant for them.
Protecting Yanyan while he studies at the Qilin Academy, the number one school in the country where Chairman Mao’s influence is at its peak is the best option for them.
Of course, choosing this will give them what they want, but they know what solves everything: to sort out the trouble with their enemy, the Cardinals.
Thus, Shen Yuan and Bai Tingfeng came to a consensus.
"Let’s go?" Shen Yuan asked his husband, his elegant eyebrows arched.
"Let’s go," Bai Tingfeng answered, soundlessly interlocking his hands with his husband.
The couple tiptoed their way out of the room hand in hand and bid their farewells with their assistants. That is the start of the night shift for the two alphas. Su Yifan, upon seeing that their young master needs security, dropped his initial plan of soaking in the hot springs.
In turn, Shen Yuan declared that the two would have a full day off tomorrow.
Gu Jinpeng and Assistant Su meant to excuse themselves from this generous offer. Babysitting a child is not a big deal!
But before they could voice out their concern, the couple vanished from their sight.
In the bamboo forest, a strong magic suddenly swept in all areas, and the next thing visible was the thick white fog.
"There you have it; the entire area is covered in my illusion now. No matter what their strength is, they will be thrown into an endless loop once they try to enter the bamboo forest," Shen Yuan said with satisfaction.
The celestial fox spirit is in full show of his majestic form. The pair of beautiful, soft furry fox ears peeking through his glossy platinum blonde hair, and his prized nine tails form gorgeous arches behind him.
This and the traditional brocade robe hugging his slim yet fit body made him look like the nine-tailed foxes in legends: mystical, enigmatic, and ethereal.
Standing behind him was the muted Bai Tingfeng, who did nothing but gawk at his husband. The sword in his hand is slightly trembling.
Is it just him, or does this form of his husband look oddly... stimulating for some reason?
"What’s with your expression? This isn’t the first time you’ve seen me with my ears and tails visible. Don’t tell me you really want to have outdoor sex?" Shen Yuan’s gloating voice pulled Bai Tingfeng back from his reverie.
The alpha consciously cleared his throat and loosened the lapel of his robe, "We can discuss that matter later. For now, let’s just—"
Bai Tingfeng’s following words were interrupted when pointed fingernails that resembled so much of a claw appeared right before his face.
"Yeah, we’ve got a lot of things to settle. First, we’ve been yapping about setting the Cardinal in their right place, yet we haven’t thoroughly understood each other’s powers. You just find out my identity, and I...." Shen Yuan trailed off. He retracted his claws and cooly walked away from Bai Tingfeng.
The celestial fox spirit clearly understands Bai Tingfeng’s powers because he read the manhua, Their S-Class Affairs. However, the one in the manhua was relatively different from what it is in the present, given that Bai Tingfeng didn’t experience the heart-wrenching experience that drove him to embrace the beastly and uncontrollable side of his powers.
The present Bai Tingfeng still hasn’t utilized his full potential. Shen Yuan wants to say that to his husband, but how is he going to say that without mentioning the damned manhua?
Shen Yuan had no idea how to get what he wanted. Thus, he just dodged it for the best.
"Well, whatever. Chairman Mao warned me that the knife used against me could potentially be my weakness. As powerful as I am, I would like to deny that, but something in me tells me that could be the case."
The celestial fox released his magic. "Bai Tingfeng, let’s show each other we can work together."
