How could an assistant possibly save them?
Before the assistant could even show a helpless expression, Shen Qianyu's deep voice came from above Qianyuan's head again:
Who else would you like to ask for help from?
"No one will help you."
Qianyuan shrugged, looking completely like a little quail.
He was taken away by his father, and a pair of snow-white toes swept past Yinqing's sight. Yinqing, however, was restrained by the soldiers with sticks and put on a bite stopper, unable to pursue his love any longer.
A thousand fates, a thousand fates...
Qianyuan is not a coward.
Back on the starship, Chiyuki silently cheered herself up.
Although his father's face was stern and he looked fierce, his hands were still steadily supporting him.
So Qianyuan mustered her courage again: "Dad, please release Yinqing."
Shen Qianyu: "If you mention his name again, the punishment will be even more severe later."
Qianyuan asked blankly, "Isn't this punishment?"
The little guy thought that his dad speaking to him with a cold face was the biggest punishment imaginable.
Shen Qianyu didn't say anything, but simply turned Qianyuan over in her arms, then took off her black leather gloves and took the ruler that her assistant handed her.
Qianyuan sensed something, glanced back, and burst into tears before the ruler could strike her.
She was originally Shen Qianyu's precious child, pampered and spoiled since childhood. How could she possibly be heartless when she cried so pitifully and aggrievedly?
However, Shen Qianyu was afraid that the little guy would forget the lesson and be kidnapped again. She was also afraid that he would be bullied outside and come to her crying about all the grievances he suffered.
With a soft snap, Shen Qianyu's touch was light, but Qianyuan in her arms lost all strength and burst into tears, burying her face in Shen Qianyu's chest.
Qianyuan was also afraid that this was a sign that Shen Qianyu disliked him. Because he loved his father so much, his first reaction to being hit was that he was at a loss.
Although it hurts a lot, it's okay if it makes Dad feel better.
He will still love his dad tomorrow.
Shen Qianyu couldn't bring himself to hit her after just one stroke. He dropped the ruler, picked up Qianyuan, and coaxed her, "I just wanted to scare you a little so you wouldn't learn your lesson. But you cried so pitifully before I even hit you... Sigh, how can you be so endearing?"
After being comforted by Shen Qianyu for a while, Qianyuan stopped crying and remained silent for a moment before asking softly:
"Dad, are you still angry?"
Shen Qianyu's defenses crumbled at this moment. The blow he struck Qianyuan was returned to his heart tenfold.
Shen Qianyu's lips were pressed tightly together, but her eyes still couldn't help but reveal regret and heartache.
"Daddy shouldn't have hit you. Don't hate Daddy."
"Dad is afraid of losing you..."
Upon hearing this, Qianyuan couldn't hold back and started crying again.
I cried until I became dehydrated.
The assistant watched silently as Qian Yuan shed tears, the tears that had mingled with his father's. He then turned to the servant beside him and said, "Prepare a bag of ice and a cup of honey water. Oh, and some ointment too, even though you might not need to apply it at all that time."
Assistant: "Sigh..."
He had been secretly alarmed to see Shen Qianyu so angry. Before encountering the cub, Wang rarely revealed his emotions, let alone anger. Even with his mortal enemy in front of him, he would simply pull back the safety of his gun with a blank expression. Over the years, few things had ever made Wang so enraged.
So the assistant was genuinely worried about Qianyuan, which is why she sent a message to Shen Cuifeng, asking him to remind them.
Fortunately, the king only captured Yinqing and did not actually punish Qianyuan.
But he didn't expect that Wang would show a regretful expression just because he lightly hit Qianyuan.
She looked like she was about to cry.
Seeing the father and son embracing and weeping, the assistant really didn't know what to say. He could only look up and find the same tearful expression on the faces of his other subordinates.
Because his subordinates had all signed confidentiality agreements and sworn oaths to be loyal to the king with their lives, they were absolutely forbidden from revealing anything they saw. Thus, tormented by this, they could only communicate with their eyes.
Luckily, I wasn't the only one who got ripped off.
When Qianyuan finally finished crying and met his assistant's gaze, he realized that Qianyuan had been nestled in his father's arms and crying for so long in front of everyone.
The grown-up Qianyuan climbed out of Shen Qianyu's arms somewhat embarrassed and sat at the far end of the sofa.
After his father's gaze swept over him, he obediently sat back down.
Qian Yuan was trying to cool his eyes with an ice pack, but it kept slipping off if he wasn't careful. Shen Qianyu sighed, took the ice pack from him, and pressed it against his eyes.
"He's still a child, why isn't he close to his father anymore? Does he like that legion commander that much? There are plenty of younger and better-looking men in my legion with higher ranks than him."
"No, that's not it..."
Qianyuan answered hesitantly, "Dad, I'm an adult now."
"Nonsense. I've only raised him for a few months. If I say he's not an adult, then he's not an adult."
Shen Qianyu didn't even raise her eyes: "Beastmen naturally have long lifespans. They only enter their prime at thirty. You do the math, how old are you?"
Qianyuan was scolded by her father. She lowered her head, revealing a section of her slender and long neck, which looked very fragile and could easily arouse some inappropriate thoughts.
"You're so easily bullied, you can't do without your dad. You're not allowed to go anywhere from now on, your activity range is limited to my side, within ten steps."
Qian Yuan refuses to admit that he is weak or that he will be bullied, after all, he has the bloodline of an ancient divine beast.
"Dad, I can eat ten cows right now! What's so weak about that?"
Shen Qianyu must already know about Qianyuan's transformation, but he doesn't seem to care at all what kind of beastman Qianyuan has become, or how strong or powerful Qianyuan is. He only cares whether the little guy is alright.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qianyu was not surprised by Qianyuan's appetite. Instead, she commented calmly, "Is that so? Being able to eat is a blessing."
"I've taken over both the farms and the slaughterhouses. Whenever you're hungry, just order food without worry; there'll always be enough."
Qianyuan: ...
Qianyuan: My family loves me so much that they are not afraid of me or distance themselves from me because of my identity. What should I do?
Shen Qianyu could even pull out a pink handkerchief with a little rabbit print to wipe his non-existent mouth as he transformed into black mist, enlarged to completely engulf the entire breeding farm with a "pop," swallowing everything except the people whole.
"Are you full? If not, continue eating."
Dad, the staff around us are almost scared to death! Why don't you open your eyes, which are blinded by your fatherly love, and take a look?
Qianyuan was too embarrassed to speak, so she could only turn to her father and let out a burp filled with mist.
Shen Qianyu glanced at him naturally and nodded, saying, "You've gained a little weight."
