Of the people currently locked in a stalemate, the little guy is the busiest.
He circled around Long Qian to heal him, and then turned to ask Osiris if he was alright. However, when the little guy tried to get close to Emperor Chong Le, he stopped and turned back to continue treating Long Qian.
Emperor Chongle kept his gaze fixed on the cub, who kept his head down, not daring to meet his father's eyes.
Osiris wanted to call the cub back to his side, and only then did the cub raise its head. It looked around to make sure that Long Qian's wounds had healed before leaving, turning back every few steps.
"etc."
Long Qian felt as if he was about to lose something. He couldn't help but reach out his hand. The cub looked at him and subconsciously reached out its hand as well, grasping Long Qian's fingers with its little hand.
A soft "thump" sounded in Long Qian's heart, as if something had suddenly come to mind.
He realized what was happening, hugged the cub tightly, exchanged a glance with Emperor Chongle beside him, and then knelt down on one knee with a pained expression, saying that his wound was still hurting.
The cub thought Long Qian had some internal injury, so it swam around with its tail, calling for someone to treat Long Qian. Long Qian then naturally took the cub with him.
Osiris: This isn't right, is it?
"Baby?"
Osiris followed.
Emperor Chongle did not chase after them. He simply stared in the direction the cub had gone, his expression somber as if he were lost in thought.
Shen Qianyu only heard the news then and arrived late, going directly to Long Qian's hospital room. This was the first time so many people had come to visit Long Qian, who had been injured so many times.
It's less about looking at him and more about looking at the cubs.
He, lying in the treatment pod, was nowhere near as eye-catching as the cub.
Shen Qianyu felt a pang of pity seeing the baby's face covered in a mess of tears. He took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the baby's face and hands, and finally took out a small comb to comb the baby's hair.
Compared to Osiris, Shen Qianyu was much more skilled at taking care of the cubs. The cubs seemed to be enjoying themselves, obediently raising their faces as Shen Qianyu wiped their cheeks.
Shen Qianyu learned all of this through practice, bit by bit.
After all, for Shen Qianyu, his child was only a few days old, so fragile and delicate. His parenting skills were all accumulated over time during the time he raised the child.
As for Osiris, although he also encountered newly hatched larvae, the merfolk did not take care of their offspring as meticulously as humans. They spent all day in the water and did not need to wash their faces. Moreover, the kissing fish were much better at grooming hair than Osiris.
So Osiris immediately felt inferior and didn't know how to make up for it.
From this perspective, it seems as if the cub is Shen Qianyu's child.
The boy was unaware that his father was jealous again. He nestled obediently in Shen Qianyu's arms, doing whatever Shen Qianyu asked him to do, which made Shen Qianyu fantasize several times that her child had returned.
His gaze was fixed on the cub, and the sense of familiarity he felt lingered in his heart.
Until the little guy started whining, trying to pry his hand open and turn his gem ring around to look in the mirror and see if he had become more handsome.
Shen Qianyu's gaze suddenly became meaningful.
The little guy is unaware that his vest has turned transparent. This is what happens when his dad holds him in his arms and rubs him for a long time; he easily gets carried away and forgets where he is.
After all, in the cub's mind, the place next to his father is the most relaxing place. It's already quite impressive that he managed not to reveal his identity immediately.
Osiris's eyelids twitched; he felt as if his cub was about to be tricked.
He jumped up, snatched the cub back, left a pearl on the bedside table as a token of his gratitude, and hurriedly took the cub back home.
However, Shen Qianyu and the others were not in a hurry to follow, but wanted to discuss something.
After all, they are all outstanding individuals. Once they understand one thing, it is not difficult to figure out the general outline of the whole matter.
Shen Qianyu made the final decision: "The cubs are our children."
"They are all our children."
Emperor Chongle appeared there at some unknown time, saying mysteriously, "Yes, the child is bound to a system. He needs to travel through different worlds to complete tasks. If he disappears in one world, he will reappear in the next."
"He has always been simple-minded and doesn't understand the purpose of the mission. Fortunately, he didn't encounter any bad people while adventuring and was able to get the protection of his parents, which is actually a good thing."
At this point, the others were even less inclined to blame him.
No wonder the little guy has been so secretive and hasn't acknowledged them yet. He's probably afraid his fathers will dislike him.
But how could that be?
No one will blame the cub for this.
...
Osiris had no idea that these people were about to steal his cub; he just thought they were all weird, like they were all crazy, their eyes practically glued to his cub.
Osiris was afraid that his child would be stolen if he wasn't careful one day, so when he got back, he didn't care about anything else. He stuffed the cub directly into the seashell, tied the seashell tightly to his chest, and was about to run away with the child as soon as possible.
But as soon as he set off, those kings, as if they had nothing better to do, all chased after him.
The seashell that Osiris held in his arms:
What are you going to do?
Shen Qianyu said, "I have long admired the customs and culture of the mermaids and would like to take advantage of the Mermaid King's influence to visit them."
Long Qian and Emperor Chong Le didn't even bother to come up with any other excuses, directly using Shen Qianyu's:
Same as above.
"I am one of them."
Osiris: ...
These guys were kings, after all, and no matter how hard he tried to drive them away, they wouldn't leave. They were so shameless that he could only pretend not to see them and lead them toward the Mermaid King's territory.
Osiris returned with the cubs to reclaim his throne.
Even though the cub had been away from the territory for a long time, his throne remained untouched by dust.
This is natural, because Osiris loved his children dearly, and the merfolk loved their king dearly.
The cub slowly swam to the throne, and Osiris took out the crown, which was larger than the cub, and gently placed it on the cub's head, thus completing the ceremony.
The cubs slowly swam away again.
However, as he swam, he realized that he was much bigger than before, and seemed to have turned into a teenager.
Once the boy has grown up, his features become fully recognizable. Moreover, the little guy has only changed his hair and eye color in each world, but his appearance has never been adjusted.
Qianyuan lowered her head, looking at her fathers watching her from below...
He actually revealed his identity in such a public place.
And the fathers' eyes were terrifying.
It's as if they want to swallow and devour the hidden treasure.
Qian Yuan braced herself and, under their watchful eyes, rectified the royal court, doing a very proper job.
However, after the process was over, Qianyuan immediately turned back into her small cub form and hid behind Osiris.
At least if you look like a baby, you won't get beaten by your dad.
