Chapter 8.7
Now the bet was mentioned, this matter had to be traced back to the Jianghu world. When Fan Yuan was still Bai Yuan, he and his “tyrannical daddy” lived together in their own world of two within the demonic sect, just like an immortal couple that was cause for envy. They busied themselves daily with discovering new locations and postures.
It was said that one night when the winds were blowing high and the enchanting moon hung high in the sky, the sect leader-daren held his precious son and headed for the altar of the demonic sect’s sacrificial platform. That was the highest location in all of the demonic sect. Standing there, one could have a panoramic view of the scenery of the entire Canglang mountain. It was truly more beautiful than one could absorb.
However, it was obvious that they didn’t come here to enjoy the scenery. Through the years, the sacrificial platform was the place where sacrifices would be offered to the ancestors, being sacred and solemn. Although there was no one around, it still made people feel nervous.
Fan Yuan donned an outer robe and the inside of it was chilly. When he thought of what Yan Rui was going to do towards him, he was inevitably excited. Yan Rui immediately saw through what this little demon was thinking. Swiftly, he removed the outer robe and spread it on the ground before pressing Fan Yuan down on top of it.
When they had lost themselves in the joy of being with their true love, two young disciples engaged in a love affair came along. Fan Yuan almost lost his soul when he heard the sudden sound, and his body let out a tremble as he came on Yan Rui’s hand. When Yan Rui noticed that Fan Yuan’s place was shrinking, his gaze became growingly deep. Instead of stopping, he became even more intense.
Afraid of making a sound, Fan Yuan endured with all his life. All Yan Rui felt was that he had never been so enchanted, so how could he stop? Even if all the members of the demonic sect appeared right now, they better not think of stopping him. At most, he would just kill those people afterwards.
Only till the two disciples left, Fan Yuan finally scolded in a disjointed manner, “Yan Rui, damn pervert……. You aren’t allowed to follow me to the next world!”
Yan Rui was working hard as he asked, “Why? Did you not feel good just now?”
Of course not! Under the stimulation of extreme tension in the mind, all the pleasure was magnified. Indeed, he felt good, but now was not the time to reason. Fan Yuan hummed, “No ‘why’s! Anyway, you aren’t allowed to follow me. If you violate this agreement, then you……you have to be pushed down by me later! I’m always the one bottoming! ”
He placed a strong emphasis on the last sentence.
Yan Rui finally knew what difficulty he was dealing with. He buried his face in Fan Yuan’s shoulder and begged for mercy, “Baby, you’re willing to leave me? A world’s mission is so long — you’re able to hold on?”
As he spoke, he gently stroked Fan Yuan’s slender waist. Fan Yuan held back his shudder and glared at him with a dark expression, “If you don’t want to part, let me top once……”
Before he could finish speaking those words, Yan Rui had mercilessly sealed his lips with a kiss. What came after was a fierce battle through the night.
After that day, none of them brought it up again. Even Yan Rui thought that Fan Yuan had forgotten it. Who knew, the little guy held his hand before their life’s end and patiently reminded, “Don’t forget our bet. If you violate it, I will be the one on top from then on.”
With that, he left the world. Yan Rui gnashed his teeth in hatred, but then again he didn’t dare to go against Fan Yuan’s wishes directly. Now listening to Fan Yuan retell what happened, he truly didn’t have any moves left to defend himself.
Seeing Yan Rui’s vexed appearance, Fan Yuan felt extremely dissatisfied. He spoke in a righteous way, “Men should be responsible. In the future, I will be the head of this family. You have to be my wife, not only in this world, but also in the future. Do you hear me?”
Yan Rui pinched his face and the colour within his eyes turned deeper. How did he fall in love with such a boisterous little guy? However, he just couldn’t bear to say such harsh words, so wasn’t he just asking to be bullied? Just as he was thinking about how to perfunctorily get past this, suddenly, he saw the time indicator on the side.
With a smile, Yan Rui gave him a kiss and said, “Baby, the rest period is almost over. Let’s discuss this matter after the exam.” After which, he moved close to Fan Yuan’s ear and coaxed, “We’ll talk about it at home.”
As expected, Fan Yuan didn’t force him any longer, obediently getting up from his body and straightening out his clothes and hair.
As soon as Yan Rui glanced back, he saw Fan Yuan sitting there smiling sillily , and he felt somewhat helpless.
He has always known that Fan Yuan was particularly sensitive to the word “home”, or to be more exact, persistent, so he was more than happy to fulfill all his requirements for a family, including parental love, love between partners and love for children. As long as he wanted it, Yan Rui would satisfy it.
However, the matter of reversing roles to be a gong remained to be discussed.
*******************
When Yan Rui arrived at the examination site, Fan Yuan didn’t follow him out. This test was about mental strength. If he stayed at the exam site, it was easy for others to misunderstand. After all, it was way too easy for Fan Yuan to interfere with the examinees if he wished to.
He turned on his optical computer to watch the live broadcast, but accidentally opened the real-time commenting page. With wide eyes in a daze, he stared as the comments covered the video in a flash, and they kept coming without any interruptions.
“Oh my god, to think that my legs have gone weak from looking at an Omega! I don’t deserve to be an Alpha!”
“The second man after Marshal Lawson to completely defy the factor of gender! Warren, you are Omegas’ pride!”
“Didn’t anyone notice that the Marshal didn’t follow? He must not be able to get up. After all, Warren’s physical strength is predicted SSS grade [picking nose]”
“Is Warren actually the first Omega in history to be a gong to a Beta?”
“Hohoho! I told you Marshal is a shou! The iceberg queen shou!!”
…………
With a shudder, Fan Yuan turned off the real-time comments. The scene that he saw last as he closed it was a full screen of “Marshal is a shou“……
These Internet mobs……Fan Yuan was so annoyed that he almost vomited blood. He looked at Yan Rui who was in the middle of the screen indifferently, thinking in his heart, laozi must top you this time!
Yan Rui seemed to sense something, directing a slight smile at the camera. As an Omega, his appearance was obviously not outstanding enough, his face was not soft and gentle enough, and his figure was not petite enough. But when one regarded him as a Beta or even an Alpha, he was absolutely charming.
In particular, his powerful aura was enough to make people ignore his appearance. Few people dared to associate him with the word Omega as long as they had seen him with their own eyes.
At this moment, such a man had stingily shown a blossoming smile in front of the camera, causing many people to hold their breath as they waited for what followed. This happened because almost everyone knew that Warren Howell was expressionless, except in front of one person.
He mouthed four words lightly and the whole scene turned into an uproar, including the audience watching said scene with their optical computers. The real-time comments that had never stopped all this while instantly came to a standstill. All of them were shocked by this scene. The words “Marshal is a shou” floated slowly across the screen and stood out in an extremely awkward way.
Yan Rui mouthed, “Hubby, wait for me.”
Fan Yuan’s initial rampaging mood immediately calmed, and the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably. But in the end, he just nodded slightly, regardless of whether the other party could see it or not.
Yan Rui secretly let out a sigh of relief. If things continued based on what had occurred just now, he would have to suffer when he got home. It didn’t matter what he looked like in other people’s eyes, he still had to pamper his own wife.
The rest of the candidates looked at him in disbelief. In this era, the strong were respected. No matter what their gender was, as long as they were strong enough, they could be in a dominant position. This was the default rule everyone followed. Otherwise, Ivan Lawson wouldn’t have became a Federal Marshal at such a young age.
However, at this instance, this powerful man had actually admitted that he was the shou in front of the whole Federation! It was simply too brave!
A member of the younger generation of the Lawson family was also among the remaining 50 candidates. He went to Yan Rui and held out his hand to him, “Hello, I’m Gino Lawson. If we speak from blood relations, I’m the Marshal’s cousin, so you’re my aunt.”
Yan Rui heard the word “cousin” but he didn’t have much expression. However, the look in his eyes became progressively deep as he glanced at Gino Lawson’s hand with a deadpan.
Gino didn’t care to take back his hand and said with a refreshing and bright smile, “Actually, before today, I wasn’t willing to accept that you would become the madame of the Lawson family. Even if you’ve performed very well in the first two tests, I was still unconvinced, but from the four words you have just said, I’ll accept it!”
Yan Rui: “……”
Gino was unaware that someone had developed a grudge against him, and continued to talk, “Though we’re a generation apart, we’re the same age. Actually, I can understand your situation very well. Marshal isn’t very good tempered and he often scolds people. When I was a child, I don’t even know how many times I’ve been scolded by him. You must’ve suffered a lot of grievances when you married him. It’s really admirable that you’re able to face it so calmly.”
“……” Yan Rui calmly swept his gaze across him, saying, “You’d better pray that you’re not divided into a group with me.”
Gino’s spine turned cold from his gaze and he quietly took two steps back. Though he didn’t know where he went wrong, he seemed to be despised?
For the first time in his life, Yan Rui’s heart did not waver. He simply intended to let fate decide the life or death of Gino Lawson.
In the end, they were not divided into the same group. Gino didn’t know that he was lucky enough to escape a huge obstacle, and even told Yan Rui that he felt it was a pity, and that they would learn from each other by exchanging blows the next time they met.
Yan Rui nodded, his meaning profound, “Alright.”
A drop of cold sweat came as Fan Yuan watched his optical computer. Yan Rui’s gaze clearly revealed anger. He hoped that that child would not truly be stupid and actually run over to fight Yan Rui. If not, he would be party disabled even if he didn’t die.
The mental strength examination was divided into two parts. First, the 50 candidates would be divided into two groups to battle against each other. The 25 winners would be promoted directly. The remaining 25 people would take part in a repechage and the 5 victors would be selected for promotion. Finally, a new group of 30 would be formed.
The method of duel was also simple. A member of both groups would control the same C-grade mecha. Due to the fact that the mecha was a low-level type, its agility and intelligence were very low. At this juncture, the mental strength of the pilot was particularly important, as the usage of this mecha would test the level of control both sides had in terms of mental prowess and long-term endurance.
The difficulty of this exam was basically meaningless to Yan Rui. He calmly stepped into his own mecha, and when his opponent saw the situation, they consciously admitted defeat so as to preserve their strength and strive for victory during the repechage round.
As soon as the exam ended, Fan Yuan couldn’t barely wait to give his man a hug. The two left the Federal Military Academy together, and there was a burst of howling on the Internet.
On the way back, Fan Yuan lay on Yan Rui’s lap and asked him in confusion, why he had to enter the military academy?
Yan Rui manipulated the aircraft while leaving his other hand to caress Fan Yuan’s head. He said with a laugh, “Of course it’s because I want to be with you.”
With squinted eyes, Fan Yuan nuzzled against his palms and couldn’t help but laugh.
*******************
While wiping his cold sweat away, the person-in-charge of the Federal Military Academy asked in fear and trepidation, “Sir, do you want us to send you back to the military headquarters?”
Fan Yuan’s subordinate that had been left behind stared at the aircraft as it flew away into the distance before he turned around and said sincerely, “Sir, please send me to the nearby hospital’s ophthalmology department, no, to the psychiatric department. Yes, yes, it should be psychiatric.”
He was not having an eye problem at this point, he was hallucinating! If not, how did he see the Marshal lying on his wife’s lap?! Is it still hot? And he even looked so cute and helpless-looking like a little bird!!
Person-in-charge: “……”
