Master Bai! This Celestial Fox Spirit Is Asking For Divorce

Throughout the entire travel, Bai Tingfeng noticed something off with Shen Yuan. He was awfully quiet, totally different from the usual Shen Yuan. Well, post-reawakening Shen Yuan, to be exact. He wanted to ask what was bugging him out of concern, but the words always got stuck in his throat whenever he tried to open his lips.

Their innocent son, on the other hand, was already asleep. The fatigue finally struck after filling his stomach and relaxing himself in his daddy's arms.

Bai Tingfeng is internally worried about his son and Shen Yuan since it would be uncomfortable to sleep, not lying down, and Shen Yuan must be dead tired after everything that happened in a single day.

Jetlag after the flight, running after the speeding cars, and fighting against the kidnappers. Then, it was revealed that he was being targeted by not just a simple crime group but a cult terrorist. He could only imagine the physical, emotional, and mental strain Shen Yuan sustained.

Well, he already accepted that his husband was now a powerful omega, but still, it would be understandable if Shen Yuan would be bothered to the point of silence because of this.

"Shen Yuan, you can tell me whatever is bothering you. I am your husband in some way, any way," Bai Tingfeng spoke carefully. He doesn't want to lose his cool once again because of the omega beside him. He hadn't apologized for his earlier blunder and didn't intend to come off as an asshole. 

Little did Bai Tingfeng know Shen Yuan already had the worst impression of him. 

Only silence responded to Bai Tingfeng's well-meaning words, and it left Bai Tingfeng torn about what he should feel about it.

"Shen Yuan, I know I unreasonably raised my voice at you, and it is uncalled for, so I-I," the handsome alpha male breathed a deep breath to calm down his nerves. "I am deeply sorry for acting rudely. I am sorry for undermining you as a father. I—"

Screech!

Bai Tingfeng almost jumped on his seat when their car sharply turned left. 

Su Yifan bowed his head low, hiding his pale face. He better act like he heard and saw nothing, or else his employment status will face a terrible crisis! "Guildmaster, I apologize. We are home now."

Bai Tingfeng sighed, "We are finally here, Shen Yuan. Let me hold Yanyan for you. I will guide you to your room."

However, Shen Yuan still didn't respond. This time, he looked at the omega more closely and realized that Shen Yuan was actually asleep all this time!

"This is…" Bai Tingfeng's facial muscles were twitching. "My apologies fell on deaf ears?"

"No, Guildmaster. A sleeping person took everything you said," Su Yifan wanted to tell Bai Tingfeng. He saw what happened through the rearview mirror, including when Shen Yuan helplessly succumbed to sleep after staring begrudgingly outside the window.

But he could never say that.

Shame washed Bai Tingfeng's face. He had an evil impulse to leave Shen Yuan in the car, but unfortunately, he isn't that conscienceless to really do it. Besides, Yanyan was grasping Shen Yuan's shirt tightly in his sleep, and Shen Yuan was also hugging their son like steel handcuffs, so he really couldn't tear the two away even if he tried.

Left with no choice, Bai Tingfeng entered their mansion while carrying the two in his arms. Carrying the thin body of Shen Yuan and Yanyan doesn't pose any difficulty for him.

With light steps, he proceeded to take the two to the master's bedroom and carefully laid Shen Yuan on the bed.

"Hmmm," Shen Yuan hummed lightheartedly, but the omega still did not wake up.

The comfort of the bed must have relaxed the daddy and son duo as they mutually lessened their grasp on each other, making it easier for Bai Tingfeng to fix their sleeping position.

"Daddy… tail… so fluffy," Yanyan cutely murmured in his sleep.

Bai Tingfeng smiled at his silly son and gently rubbed the platinum blonde hair he inherited from his husband. "Now that you have your Daddy. Don't you dare forget your Papa, huh?"

"Guildmaster?" Assistant Su softly called Bai Tingfeng from outside the room, careful not to wake up any of the two sleeping souls.

"What is it?" Bai Tingfeng asked the moment he exited the master's bedroom.

"Master Shen dropped this in the car, Guildmaster."

Assistant Su gave the string envelope to Bai Tingfeng and left immediately.

Bai Tingfeng eyed the envelope, which he knew was given by Chairman Mao curiously.

The string was slightly frayed because Shen Yuan was venting his nervousness on the poor thread. It left him wondering what was bothering Shen Yuan. Shen Yuan always had the nerves of steel, which made him a little concerned.

Bai Tingfeng left his musings for a while and placed the envelope on the bedside table. He proceeded to clean and change the clothes of their little boy. But even if he tried to focus on his actions, his mind always strays towards the envelope. He wonders if Chairman Mao offered Shen Yuan to work at the Hunter Association.

S-Class awakeners are coveted assets no matter what the organization is, so it is understandable if the government itself scouts Shen Yuan.

But they have a hunter's guild of their own, so Shen Yuan shouldn't…

"Ah, right. I forgot. Shen Yuan is an omega that no alpha could tame," he murmured, pouting. Bai Tingfeng's eyes reflect unvoiced laughter.

As if teasing him, his sight once again strayed to the wrinkled envelope. His intuition is really bugging him to read whatever documents are inside.

It is totally unlike him to want to break anyone's privacy, even if it is his husband on paper. However, Bai Tingfeng couldn't control his growing curiosity in the end. He finds himself sitting at the side of the bed, untying the string of the envelope, and when he reads the first paragraph of the first page of the document, he forgot to control his emotions.

Shen Yuan didn't mean to drift off to sleep as he was originally planning how he could silence Chairman Mao Huanlong. He was so invested in that issue that it came to a point where he dreamt that the elderly alpha male made a press release exposing that a fox spirit is possessing the body of Shen Yuan! Mao Huanlong was so mad at him that he issued a kill order for his head!

The hunters of this world were so close to killing him, but fortunately, his leg jolted him out of the dreadful nightmare that he had.

"Ah, fuck it. Ever since I came here. I never really had a rest." the celestial fox spirit said in his mind.

With his eyes still closed, he turned to the side, and that was when he sensed someone's presence. It was suspiciously so little that his sharp, foxy senses almost overlooked it. The calming scent of his surroundings may make him lower his guard.

This condition was terrible in every sense. What if there is an enemy?

The celestial fox didn't want to take any chances, so he alertly opened his red, sleepy eyes and was almost taken by a heart attack when he saw a large hulking back facing him. Fortunately, he managed to identify the man because of his familiar smell.

"Bai Tingfeng! Goodness! You scared the shit out of me! You know I will go to the spirit realm one day, but please, can we not make it today?" Shen Yuan half-whispered and half-shouted because he could sense Yanyan sleeping beside him now that he was finally sober from the sleep.

However, instead of saying anything biting, the alpha male, who is facing away from Shen Yuan, secretly wipes his face. Then, after a while, Bai Tingfeng asked in a husky voice. "Shen Yuan, will you accept Chairman Mao's offer?"
