Chapter 251 Extra: Snail Prince (8)
Bai Su had no idea that his lover's imagination had gone astray. When he heard that Yan Fengchen was going to take him back, he was naturally happy.
The two talked for a long time, and the water in the bucket was no longer warm.
Afraid that his lover would catch a cold, Bai Su urged him to get out of the water quickly so that they could return to the Yanlong Sect as soon as possible.
It was already late, and Yan Fengchen, with his inner strength, was not afraid of the night. Furthermore, as long as he used his Qinggong skills, even if he couldn't travel a thousand miles in a day, it wouldn't take too long to get from this valley to the Flame Dragon Sect.
Hearing the concern in Bai Su's words, Yan Fengchen felt relieved. He reluctantly let go of her hand, carried Bai Su out of the bathtub, and then went to the inner room to change his clothes.
Bai Su saw the man's unusually complicated and gorgeous robe and smiled secretly. It seemed that his lover had made full preparations for this bathing and changing scene.
During the courtship period, the male peacock will really spread his tail feathers.
Bai Su naturally showed his support and praised Yan Fengchen, saying, "My benefactor looks truly magnificent in this outfit."
The man's mood brightened upon hearing this, and he took Bai Su, who had transformed back into a white conch shell, carefully holding him in his palm and quickly rushed back to the Flame Dragon Sect.
When Yan Fengchen brought Bai Su back, it was already very late and the sky had completely darkened. Except for the patrolling guards, most people in the Yanlong Sect had already fallen asleep.
Yan Fengchen didn't want to attract other people's attention, so he used his Qinggong skills to easily climb over the wall and reach the courtyard.
He was the former leader of the Divine Religion and held the supreme position in the Flame Dragon Religion. The followers of the Religion also knew Yan Fengchen's temper very well.
In the past, few people stayed in the courtyard to serve. There were some who had evil intentions in the past, but they were punished, and some were even expelled directly. Later, no one dared to do so anymore.
Everyone felt that their Master Yan had no interest in these love affairs, and ordinary mortals were not worth his attention.
Therefore, now the servants would not get close to the place and get in the way unless they received orders. Only when Yan Fengchen was not around would someone come to clean up as a routine.
Of course, there are still a few routine guards outside the courtyard.
So when Yan Fengchen brought Bai Su back to the yard, they hardly attracted anyone's attention.
Yan Fengchen immediately took Bai Su to the small pond in front of the house and watched the koi swimming in the pond. The scenery was very beautiful even under the moonlight.
But just when he was about to place Bai Su in the small pond, stroking the conch in his hand, the man hesitated.
On weekdays, he was too lazy to come to the pond to enjoy the scenery, and wondered if there were other snails here.
Yan Fengchen felt very uncomfortable when he thought about his little demon having to squeeze in the same mud pit with other snails.
Thinking of this, he simply went back to his room and took out a tea bowl, then went to the pond, scooped up some mud and water from the edge of the pond, pulled out a few water plants, put them in the tea bowl, and then returned to the room.
After carefully placing Bai Su inside, the man said contentedly, "I'll have to bear with you living in this tea bowl for a few days. Tomorrow, I'll have someone expand the pond in the courtyard. I'll make sure it's comfortable and you'll enjoy living there."
Bai Su had just seen what his lover had done, and after listening to what he said, he could actually guess in his heart why the other party did not immediately put him in the pond.
I felt amused that my lover would even eat the vinegar of the snails. I immediately changed back into human form and said, "My benefactor, that pond is already very good and there's no need to expand it. In fact, this tea bowl is big enough for me too. I can rest comfortably here!"
"How can a small tea bowl do that?" Yan Fengchen disapproved after hearing this. He then waved his hand and said firmly, "Since you've followed me back, just follow my instructions. You don't have to worry about these trivial matters."
Upon hearing this, Bai Su immediately said to the man with a look of gratitude, "My benefactor, you are so kind to me! I don't know how to repay you. Don't worry, I will prepare breakfast tomorrow morning. I can also do the laundry, make snacks, and clean the yard and the room. Leave it all to me!"
Seeing the young man so motivated, Yan Fengchen was a little amused and helpless, but he didn't bring him back to do these things.
He reached out and touched Bai Su's cheek, then smiled and said, "I don't lack people to cook, wash clothes, and clean the yard. Just stay by my side and be good."
"Is that all that's going to be okay?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Su deliberately tilted his head, looking up at his lover with his big eyes.
Yan Fengchen felt his throat tighten under such gazes. He pulled Bai Su into his arms and said softly, "Of course, there's more to it than that. Don't worry, I'll slowly teach you what you need to do in the future."
"Now, don't you want to rest in the water?"
Hearing his lover's question, Bai Su shook his head: "No, just soaking in water for a while is enough. In fact, if necessary, it doesn't matter if there is no water for a few days."
"But if you don't soak in water for a long time, you will definitely feel uncomfortable," Yan Fengchen said.
"That's true." Bai Su smiled and did not deny it this time.
I can feel that this little demon clearly doesn't want to cause trouble for me, why is he so obedient?
The man sighed in his heart, but he couldn't bear to let go. Although he wanted to watch him all the time and hold him tightly, it was obvious that Bai Su's health was more important to him.
So that night, Yan Fengchen placed the tea bowl on the cabinet beside his bed. Only after seeing Bai Su return to his original form did he go to bed.
And as soon as he woke up early the next morning, he couldn't wait to call the servants and started to talk to them about the pond renovation.
However, no matter how quickly the pond was renovated, it would probably take several days, so Yan Fengchen asked someone to build a large water tank.
People in that era didn't know how to make glass, so there weren't any transparent fish tanks. So Yan Fengchen had someone spread a layer of fine sand on the bottom of a flat, delicate porcelain tank, personally added some fresh aquatic plants, and then, with a delicate and sculpted design, created a small landscape.
After doing all this, he carefully took out the white conch from the tea bowl and placed it in the new water tank.
Bai Su woke up as soon as he was moved.
Although he felt a little disappointed that he couldn't share the same bed with his lover yesterday, but being under the same roof and so close to each other, Bai Su could feel his partner's presence and slept extraordinarily soundly.
As a result, I woke up a little late because of this oversleeping.
Yan Fengchen's movements were actually very gentle, but Bai Su should have woken up. After waking up, he noticed that he had completely changed his environment. As a shell snail monster in this life, he could naturally feel that the water quality of the environment he was in was very good.
If you calm down, you can still vaguely hear Yan Fengchen whispering some instructions to his subordinates, which are nothing more than something about the renovation of the pond. Then he asked someone to prepare breakfast and repeatedly called the steward of the sect.
Bai Su finally showed up after the servants had left. Yan Fengchen's face lit up with joy when he saw him. He walked over to him and said, "Xiaobai, how did you sleep last night?"
Bai Su was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "My benefactor is calling me Xiaobai?"
"Who else could it be if not you?"
Yan Fengchen smiled, reached out and rubbed the boy's head, half-embraced him in his arms, took his hand and sat down with him at the table.
Bai Su did recall the past. Many people close to him had called him that. When their loved ones lost their memories, they would always give them various nicknames. Xiaobai, Baibai, of course, were all expressions of affection towards him.
Bai Su liked this name. He turned his head and looked at the water tank with an exquisite decoration. As if he had just discovered it, he said to the man with a happy look, "Sleep well, benefactor. Did you buy a new home for me?"
"This isn't even a new home."
Yan Fengchen shook his head helplessly, thinking that his little demon was really easy to please. Wouldn't this make him particularly vulnerable to being deceived? Sure enough, he should be nicer to him and let this little thing gain more experience.
"The pond outside is already being renovated. Didn't I say it before? We'll make it comfortable so you can enjoy living there."
But on second thought, Yan Fengchen looked at the water tank and thought it was not bad to have. After all, no matter how good the pond was, it couldn't be moved, but the water tank could be placed in his room. That way, if he wanted, he could bring the little creature closer to him.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door. Yan Fengchen said, "Come in." Then he saw the chief steward of the Yanlong Sect and a group of servants entering the house with plates of food.
The moment the steward saw Bai Su, a flash of surprise crossed his face, but he quickly lowered his head and covered it up.
The chief steward of the Yanlong Cult is a middle-aged man with ordinary looks. He has been in this position for more than ten years. He is considered a responsible person and has always done a good job in his internal affairs.
He knew Yan Fengchen's temperament very well and had originally found it strange that since Sect Leader Yan passed the position of Sect Leader to his disciple, he would not interfere in the affairs of the sect unless necessary.
Besides, Master Yan didn't like to take care of these internal affairs, and he didn't care about these trivial matters such as food and clothing. Why did he suddenly ask someone to prepare such a rich breakfast today and even called him over?
The steward was thinking in his mind that he couldn't remember what special things had happened around him recently. Who would have thought that as soon as he entered the door, he saw the leader, who was always quiet, sitting in front of the table with his arms around a handsome young man.
As for the attendants who came in with them, they seemed even more surprised, but their hands were steady and they did not make any inappropriate moves.
After lowering his head and putting the food on the table, he quickly left, leaving the butler alone in the room.
Apart from the initial surprise when he saw Bai Su, he just stood there smiling without saying a word.
Yan Fengchen was very pleased with the steward's tact. He personally handed a pair of chopsticks to Bai Su, then turned and said to the steward, "This is Mr. Bai. From now on, meeting him will be like meeting me."
