Chapter 146: 6.7 Third Green Star - Our Great Wingman Chino

Silence. 

Silence means the complete absence of sound. Except for the natural sound in the surroundings the conversation between the three had become silent. They could only stare at each other with astonishment on their faces. Only the little milk bun had a look of innocence on his chubby face as if he wasn't the cause of awkwardness between his daddy and his memoryless father's soul fragment.

Among them only System Yue commented in his host mind which his young master could hear as well.

[Wow~ the young master is as straightforward as always.]

Xueya fakely scolded his naught son. He lightly hit him on his butt. "Bad boy! Didn't daddy tell you, you can't just call anyone father. You asked your Uncle Lou and Brother Yun the same thing!" 

"But daddy~ Chino wants another father. I want to have two dads! Didn't Uncle Lou have Uncle Wang. If they adopt a child, that child would have two daddies. I want two as well!" retorted Ximen Chino.

Ximen Chino knew that Cao Junye is his father's soul fragment in this world. He wanted to call him father as soon as he knew this. But his daddy is not bringing his father home even though they've met him already. He had no other choice but to make their relationship close by hook or crook.

Ximen Xueya could mostly guess what his adorable son is planning. He decided to play around him in teasing his husband as well.

Xueya scolded his son, "You want daddy to find you a father is that it? Where should daddy look for one?" he asked.

"Daddy has no need to look for one. Isn't Uncle Cao here? I want him to be my father." retort Chino with bulging cheeks as if he is bullied by his daddy.

Xueya responded, "You want your Uncle Cao to be your father, you just meet him once in person and second in this video call. Now you suddenly want him to become your father!?"

"It's okay. Uncle is good. He is strong, tall and handsome like Ir**man! He also saved me and daddy. He is a good person!!" said Chino.

"You... brat~"

{HAHAHAHA~}

Cao Junye who watched the father and son quarrel nonsense in front of him made him laugh. He never would have expected that the famous cold demon who is said to even have control over the government and military would act like this in front of his son. Who would also expect that the young heir of Ximen Family to be this outspoken. At the age of 3, this little milk bun could argue with his own father without lisp as he speaks. Clearly this baby bun has higher intelligence than normal children. In short it's a genius.

No wonder the State Head and the Prime Minister indulge the Ximen Family. Just this father and son who is down to earth, never really cares except for spending their money to play around as family. The Ximen family is just a simple but happy family. No wonder Ximen Xueya sold those companies under his name for no reason. He must have decided to just retire somewhere and enjoy his remaining life with his naughty son.

Based on the conversation of the duo, Cao Junye's conjectures of Ximen Xueya's sexuality had been checked. He likes the same gender. It is no wonder he could accept Lou Lan and Wang Lei's relationship and allow even his son to be exposed to the same gender relationship. Even though the country had long accept same sex marriage, there are still more people who are opposed to this.

He also heard from Lou Lan that the little milk bun called Ximen Chino is a product of Artificial Insemination attempts Ximen Xueya had made abroad. This is because he thought that since it's hard to look for a partner getting a son with the same genes should be better instead. 

Lou Lan told him that Ximen Chino is the only successful baby that comes out from his friend's countless attempts. This is the reason why Ximen Chino is Ximen Xueya's most precious baby and family. After all, Ximen Xueya is an orphan with no relatives in this world. He and the little milk bun were the only remaining bloodline of Ximen. The State Head and the Prime Minister are said to be the close friend of Xueya's deceased grandfather. This is the reason why those two old men indulge him and protect him as their own. To these old men Ximen Xueya is their grandson and Ximen Chino is their great grandson. No wonder the profile of Ximen Family was all under a highly classified information category.

After laughing quite freely the father and son's similar looking phoenix shaped eyes were now staring at him. It made Cao Junye want to pull them for a hug. Unfortunately not only is he far away from them, the relationship between him and Xueya still hasn't upgraded to being lovers yet.

Cough!

"Chi-chan can call this uncle, father. I wouldn't mind as long your daddy doesn't mind." said Cao Junye.

Ximen Chino's eyes sparkled when he heard that. "Really!? Daddy~ can I? Can I please~~?" he asked with adorable big eyes to his daddy.

Ximen Xueya could only helplessly agree on the surface but in his heart he jeered on his husband's silliness. He didn't expect to get calculated by his own son.

"Okay~ do as you wish. Now go take a shower and prepare to sleep." said Xueya as he rubbed his baby's tummy checking whether the dinner he ate had been fully digested.

After getting his plan as a wingman for his parents fulfilled Chino left his daddy's lap to prepare to take shower with his Uncle Yue. He didn't forget to say goodbye to his newly attained father, Cao Junye.

Waving his hands on the camera, "Father, Chi-chan is going to take a bath first. See you again next time. Bye bye~ Mwaa!" said Chino as he gives his father a flying kiss before running away to take his bath before heading to sleep.

System hovers towards his little master to help him take a bath. Leaving the couple to talk to themselves. After the light bulbs had left, Xueya and Junye could finally talk with each other. There is still a helpless smile on Xueya's face when looking at Cao Junye on the tablet's screen.

"There is no need to spoil the brat too much. You've just spoken with each other today and you're already being called as a father. Is that alright with you, Junye?" said Xueya.

Cao Junye replied, {Don't worry. I really don't mind. Chi-chan is cute after all. Is his mother Japanese?"}

"Well~ my baby's birth circumstances are not normal. But I heard his mother is supposed to be a Japanese Lady I think. Chino is a child from my attempts at Artificial Insemination. I've done it countless times, only Chino has successfully been born. He is my baby and my only blood related family."

{You can get a lover and give him another father as he wanted.}

"With you counted as one, if I still look for another one then Chino would have three fathers by then. Let's leave it with just you as his other father. He chose you personally anyway. When he asked Lou Lan and our butler the same thing, he was only half joking. But he asked you seriously just now. Must be because that scene at the amusement park had been imprinted on his mind. Chino likes you a lot. Junye, thank you for saving us." said Xueya with a sweet smile, he is obviously seducing his man in an indirect way.

As expected Cao Junye's heartbeat grew faster upon seeing Xueya's smile. The man on his screen has refined and flawless features. Ximen Xueya is a man who looks younger for his age. He heard that his age is in mid-thirties but the person in front of him looks like he is only in his mid-twenties. He is indeed attractive, a drop gorgeous cool beauty who looks like an immortal from the distance. Just by standing he could attract eyes on him.

Now that there is a sweet smile on his lips, it made him hundred times more fetching. Once those phoenix shaped eyes squinted narrowly at someone, one would have thought they were being bewitched by some alluring temptress. With his unique ethereal and handsome charm, Ximen Xueya is like a transcending being.

Cao Junye's face remained expressionless and stern, if no one closely looked at his face they couldn't notice the ears of this authoritarian turning slightly red. 

Ximen Xueya's smile widens when he saw Junye's Adam's apple moving up and down from swallowing his saliva secretly as he stares at him with a stern face.

{There is no need for thanks. I... I am only doing my... duty. It's my pleasure to have saved you both.} 

"We've always called each other at night lately. Which means we can be considered as good friends. Now that Chino had chosen you as his other father, I guess we could consider each other half family. Junye, I will now treat you as our family. Once we reached the capital, I and Chino would come over and visit you." 

{Then... I will make preparations for your arrival. After N District where do you plan to go next?}

"Hm~ we might have dropped in some small towns on our way to the capital to have a stopover. Afterwards, we might arrive in the capital in the last week of September I guess. We plan to stay in the capital for a month or so. I'm planning on living in Lou Lan's place during those times."

{In Lou Lan's place. I suggest that you don't do it. Because of the last bombing event the couple have been quarreling for weeks now. They've just reconciled lately and are in total honeymoon mode.}

"That means his lover would be staying at Lou Lan's place most of the time. If this is the case then I have no other choice but to buy or rent some place in the capital during our stay. Do you have any recommendations, Junye?"

{There is no need to look for a place. You and Chino should just stay at my place. I have a mansion in the capital. I live alone with few servants. There are countless guards for safety purposes as well. Moreover when the two old men heard about your arrival they would most likely visit you as well. It is better to meet at my place to avoid disturbance.}

Cao Junye's suggestion seems upright to the ears of those who could hear his explanation. Only Ximen Xueya knew that this man was not willing to let him and his son live somewhere outside his territory while they were in the capital. The existence of the Ximen Family is special after all. There will be lots of annoying bugs and pests that will be asking for a visit when they've heard of their arrival.

It is better to spend more time with Cao Junye before the beginning of the apocalypse. The real reason he is going to the capital to meet with the two old men personally to inform them about the incoming end of the world. He just recently gathered enough proofs to be able to make them believe that incoming disaster. They might not accept it fully but they should be able to make haste preparation instead.

It is also because of this that Xueya knew that the relationship between him and Cao Junye might become estranged. No one in the right mind would believe that an apocalypse is coming. After spending a month in the capital, Xueya plans to return to the S District to wait for the incoming end of the world. The Ximen Mountain he bought is located in Z District where the population is sparse.

The father and son could take their time fighting zombies until they've reached their territory.

"Okay. Then I will thicken my face and stay at your place when we get to the capital."

{You and Chino are always welcome in my place.}

After talking for a few hours they two finally cut off their conversation for the night. Taking a warm bath before sleeping with their baby has been their daily routine since they arrived in this world. They sleep peacefully at night.
