Chapter 58: Episode 5.10 Papa will protect your secret Daddy!
Suki/Shen Yuan’s fear of getting his identity found out is no trifling matter.
It isn’t just because of his pride or any other petty reason.
The celestial fox spirit’s fear is born out of the multiple times he witnessed fox spirits like him suffering the consequences of their negligence or mistake. It is an end that he never wanted to experience himself.
No matter the era, there are stories about fox spirits like him. Starting from fantastical stories of them being a kingdom’s guardian, a sign of good omen, to scary bedtime story characters that portray them as the harbinger of destruction and mischievous trickster or life-stealing fap material.
Suki even saw some of them happen with his own eyes. And he could attest that even though the story is a kind of happily-ever-after story, they are all sad sob stories at the fox spirit’s end from start to end.
For example, the story of a fox spirit’s being a helper in building the foundation of a kingdom.
The fox spirit in that story was an unfortunate spirit who accidentally became a slave to the founding king of that kingdom.
His fall from grace started when the roots of his tail were touched by the then-woodcutter king during his innocent sunbathing, forming a soul pact between them that forces him to do whatever the damned human wishes until the day the human dies.
However, that end didn’t happen because his story was told to the public, and his identity was exposed.
He undoubtedly broke the taboo on that one, which caused him to incur the wrath of the heavens, and his spirit burst to smithereens.
Shen Yuan knows the inside story because he saw it all happen himself, and even if he did try to save that fox spirit, that unfortunate one’s fate was already sealed the moment the humans touched his weakness.
Unsurprisingly, the stories after this —no matter how different, romantic, and heartwarming the theme was— all followed the same tragic event progression for the fox spirit.
This is why Suki never let any person touch that specific spot of his tail, nor did he let anyone know about him being a fox spirit.
He already saw a lot of stories that would serve him piping-hot moral lessons, so he excused himself from committing the same mistake.
Well, that principle may have some improvements now, given that two people know about his ears and tails. But they are people close to him. He could stick around them to ensure they would not advertise his prized possessions without his knowledge.
It was already fortunate that Yanyan was too young to assume anything, and he hardly knew things about the original Shen Yuan, and that Chairman Mao himself came up with an explanation before Shen Yuan said bullshit, prompting him to miss connecting the dots correctly.
The celestial fox spirit doesn’t want to test his luck and see if other people would hit the bullseye once they see his ears and tails.
That gamble has too much at stake for him to play.
Especially if the other person is Bai Tingfeng, who knew Shen Yuan before everything happened.
For some reason, the fear intensifies at the thought that the damned handsome alpha male would end up finding out that he isn’t the real Shen Yuan.
It was weird and inexplicable for the current him.
Maybe it was because he had seen people possessed by fox spirits getting killed by angry relatives of the vessel, or he was simply a big worrywart, and he still needed to mentally prepare himself.
But regardless of the reason, he doesn’t want Bai Tingfeng to know about it.
Well, until he is prepared, at the very least.
"Please," Shen Yuan looked at Bai Tingfeng. His eyes were moist and wide, looking like a kid asking for candy.
Bai Tingfeng looked at that expression, feeling a little suffocated. Does this omega know how cute and cuddly he was when he did this? On most occasions, Shen Yuan is a seething little cat who doesn’t want to be touched, but now he looks like a fluffy fur baby he wants to hug.
"But Daddy, you are too injured. We need those healing big brothers and sisters to check on you," Yanyan’s voice broke him out of daze.
Bai Tingfeng saw Shen Yuan covering his mouth from his line of sight and mouthed something to their son.
Yanyan’s eyes suddenly grew wide, and he covered his mouth with his tiny palms.
Bai Tingfeng only felt his son pulling his sleeves and said, "Papa! We need to take Daddy to his room! He needs to rest before anything happens!"
The alpha male was a little weirded at the "stealthy" exchange between Shen Yuan and their son. But considering the urgency they expressed, he just sighed and excused themselves to Chairman Mao.
Bai Tingfeng didn’t realize he was slowly molding into Shen Yuan’s yes-man.
When they reached the room, Shen Yuan threw Bai Tingfeng aside without hesitation. He needed time to replenish his mana before his ears and tails popped up without his consent.
"Twenty minutes rest, then five minutes of treating the wound. Please help me manage the media for the press conference that I promised earlier, Bai Tingfeng," Shen Yuan said while sticking his head out of the half-closed door.
"You will still carry on with the press conference with you still injured?!" Bai Tingfeng asked, obviously not fond of his idea.
"I already gave my word that I will give my answers today, so I should at least spend a little time doing as promised. Despite how I act and talk, I am actually a man of my word," Shen Yuan declared and was ready to close the door on Bai Tingfeng’s face.
Seeing that the alpha male didn’t budge, Shen Yuan jokingly whispered, "Don’t worry. Yanyan will stay with me. I wouldn’t invite someone into my room to give me some naked dick-ey massage. I would rather ask you to do it for me since we are husbands on paper."
Naked dick-ey massage?! What the hell?
"Shen Yuan! Your words!" Bai Tingfeng almost screamed. Thankfully, the guy mastered the art of restraining his behavior from a young age, or he would cause a commotion.
But unbeknownst to him, his flushed face was already scandalous to anyone who would see him.
Shen Yuan used Bai Tingfeng’s distraction to his advantage and pushed the male out of the door’s way.
"I already gave you your payment earlier. It’s time for you to do your job."
Bai Tingfeng instantly understood what those words meant, so he replied in defense, "What?! Those are just your lips! Would your kiss be used to pay your bills?"
And that is his mistake.
Shen Yuan flashed a lopsided smile with his eyes lacking any light. "You really shouldn’t open your mouth, Bai Tingfeng. Not unless I told you to."
He grabbed the alpha’s tie and said straight to his face. "Read my lips, Bai Tingfeng. You will miss their warmth for sure. But you will never taste these cherry-colored lips even if you roll in our garden butt-naked."
"Jerk."
The celestial fox spirit slammed the door and locked it with a huff.
"Shit! Why am I even bothered by that asshole," Shen Yuan murmured as he strode inside the room.
He swears that nothing about Bai Tingfeng is desirable— well, aside from his buff body and chiseled features that Shen Yuan liked.
"Daddy! I will help you with whatever you need now!" the little boy came rushing towards him before he knew it. The boy is already pulling him towards the couch, where the potions and a tiny medical kit he didn’t use earlier are on the coffee table.
Shen Yuan undid his spell and exposed his ears and tails. As always, the boy got distracted but was as dutiful and thoughtful as Yanyan was. He still guided his Daddy to take a seat.
The celestial fox spirit smilingly let the kid act his goodwill.
He met a lot of children in his extremely long life, but never did he meet someone as sweet, caring, thoughtful, and sensible as Yanyan!
It would be great if Bai Tingfeng would learn a thing or two from their own son.
So, while his wounds are being "treated" by the little doctor Yanyan and he is also silently recharging his mana pool, Shen Yuan curiously asked a question to the little boy.
"Yanyan, do you think it is okay if your Papa learns about my secret?" Shen Yuan asked. The celestial fox spirit’s tails are mildly moving side.
The little boy was distracted by his daddy’s tails and wanted to touch them. However, he bit his lips and focused on answering the question. "I think Papa’s okay."
"Why?"
"Because Papa likes Daddy so much."
"Huh?" Shen Yuan looked at Yanyan with question marks dangling on his forehead. He knows that children are the most honest creatures in the world, but they only view things based on their limited perspective.
But Yanyan saying Bai Tingfeng likes him twice in a row... It was exciting.
"Why did you think that Papa likes me?"
"Well, Papa worries about you, Daddy. Super. When you were fighting with Grandpa Mao, he was so worried sick that he didn’t even notice that he was squeezing me when he thought that you were in trouble. Therefore, Papa will surely protect your secret like Yanyan!" Yanyan answered truthfully.
The innocent little boy didn’t know that he is selling his dear father to his cunning Daddy.
