After Ye Tan entered the room, Long Xun heard the door close.
Without stopping his work, he leaned down and whispered in Yin Chen's ear, "Ah Chen, we have a guest."
Yin Chen was a little confused, but suddenly realized what was happening after a moment.
Ye Tan, looking completely bewildered, hesitated at the door whether to turn around and leave so as not to interrupt her best friend's good time, or to wait silently for a while. Then she heard a commotion inside. After a moment, Yin Chen's silly voice rang out from inside: "Ah Tan, is that you? I'll put my pants on and come out in a bit!"
"..."
Ye Tan silently wiped away her sweat and chuckled dryly: "It's alright, I'm not in a hurry. Take your time, don't sacrifice quality for speed..."
The sound of rustling clothes coming from inside the house was followed by Yin Chen's casual reply: "What's going on? I've been getting ready all morning... Hey, A-Tan, do you want to try it?"
Wow! You guys are going to last forever! Aren't you worried about excessive wear and tear?! Is your engine oil even still intact?! Is this some kind of steel engine oil?!
Ye Tanfeng was bewildered for a long time. After recalling what he had said, she was horrified: "Try...try? How? With whom?"
"Of course you should try it with Ah Xun! Don't worry, Ah Xun is very skilled, it won't hurt like other people's! It'll feel great!"
"...No need, thank you."
As Yin Chen buttoned his shirt, he walked out of the bedroom. Then, he looked up and saw Ye Tan's distorted expression. He asked inexplicably, "How did you have a stroke?"
Long Xun followed behind Yin Chen, reaching out to pull out the corner of his shirt tucked into his waistband and smooth it out. He then reached out to adjust Yin Chen's collar. Yin Chen, not quite used to it, giggled and dodged away, saying, "Ah Xun~~ stop fooling around, I can do it myself~~!"
Ye Tan, who prided herself on being a hero who could fight tigers on mountains and capture dragons in the sea, was so startled by his tone that she shivered.
Oh my god, his best buddy is a sissy. I never knew before. Look at his shy little face.
That's terrifying.
Wiping away the cold sweat that kept pouring down his face, Ye Tan looked at the man who had kidnapped his best friend, and instantly opened his mouth wide in disbelief: "It's...it's you?"
Looking at his adopted son, Long Xun's cold eyes softened slightly, revealing a hint of kindness.
Ye Tan blinked hard, and when she looked again, Long Xun's expression was still so indifferent.
It seems I'm seeing things.
Long Xun nodded slightly to him and said calmly, "Hello, nice to meet you, I am Long Xun."
"I know, big star..." Ye Tan's feelings were a bit complicated. If she remembered correctly, this person had just found the school and met A-Chen for the first time a little over ten days ago. How come they're already in bed together now? That's too fast, isn't it?
Could it be that he's just messing with his motor oil?
Ye Tan suddenly darted forward, hooked her arm around Long Xun's shoulder, and said to Yin Chen, "Ah Chen, do you mind if I talk to him?"
"???" Yin Chen looked at Ye Tan with a head full of questions as she practically dragged Long Xun under her arm into another bedroom and then slammed the door shut.
Long Xun indulged his son's behavior.
After entering the room, Ye Tan tilted her head and looked at him, then suddenly raised her other hand and said with a smile, "Big star, I think you're not just playing around, are you?"
Seeing Ye Tan's ferocious smile, Long Xun reached out and pulled off his arm, looking at him calmly without saying a word.
"I know who you are, the head of the Long Group, right?" Ye Tan didn't care, crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall, shaking his leg and glancing at him arrogantly: "Someone of your level should know that there are still beings in this world that mortals can't afford to offend..."
Suddenly, three shiny fingernails popped out from the hand he had been raising, and scales grew on his originally fair hand, which in the blink of an eye transformed into a dark blue claw.
Ye Tan clenched her fists and smiled, "So I'm warning you, if you're just thinking of playing around, you'd better wash your neck clean as soon as possible..."
Long Xun suddenly stepped forward and pressed his hand down on his head.
Ye Tan: "..."
Hey! I'm still showing off! Can't you let me finish my threat first?!
"Three claws, no horns, and a body laced with deadly poison—a Azure Dragon, perhaps?" Long Xun murmured, then withdrew his hand, took a step back, and said calmly, "Don't meddle in other people's business. Focus on your cultivation."
"What do you mean? Who exactly are you?"
Ye Tan suddenly realized something was wrong. He was a bamboo viper who had cultivated for a thousand years and transformed into a green dragon after shedding his snake body. He was born with the talents of concealing his poison and being highly skilled. Even someone with a higher cultivation level than him could not possibly know his attributes just by touching his head.
The world has changed drastically. Humanity is flourishing while the immortal path is declining. Those otherworldly beings have all hidden among the people. The dragon race disappeared five hundred years ago. It can be said that there is no one in this world who can see through his true form. However, the head of the Dragon Clan has seen through it.
Long Xun showed him his dragon horns and tail.
Even when Long Xun, Ye Tan, and Yin Chen sat down at the table to have breakfast together, Ye Tan still had a dreamy expression on her face, as if she was muttering something.
Yin Chen eavesdropped for a bit and only vaguely heard a few words like "The rumors are true," "The Dragon God really exists..." and "I'm rich..."
Yin Chen quietly asked Long Xun, "Xun, did you knock A-Tan's brains out?"
"……no."
"Then why is he like this?"
Long Xun thought about it seriously for a moment and replied, "Menopause."
Yin Chen said "oh" and then fell silent.
Before the three of them had finished eating, Long Xun suddenly got up and walked to the door. He opened the door and stood in front of the apartment he had bought across the hall. Mu Chunfeng, dressed in an expensive, custom-made casual suit and tall and slender, was ringing the doorbell. Hearing the door open, he turned around, gave Long Xun a friendly smile, and quickly walked over, calling out affectionately, "Cousin!"
