In this small world, both the beastmen race on land and the sea tribe pursue their loved ones in a very straightforward manner, while also possessing a strong sense of territory and possessiveness.
They would hope that the person they like can imbue their own scent, which is also a way of declaring sovereignty.
However, the way the sea tribe leaves their scent is of course different from the other, especially for the royal family.
Moreover, in Bai Ren’s heart, Mo Yi was already his partner, and he spared no effort in leaving his scent mark. Perhaps the beastmens couldn’t sense it, but in the eyes of the sea tribe, Mo Yi was unmistakably claimed.
Furthermore, through scent, they could also recognize that Bai Ren was formidable, which could ensure that his partner wouldn’t be coveted by others.
However, even though Haisha could clearly sense Bai Ren’s scent as a sea tribe member, he still intentionally left a trace of his scent on Mo Yi’s shoulder, indicating a desire to pursue.
In Bai Ren’s eyes, this was blatant provocation.
Mo Yi already belonged to him, so Haisha should have taken the initiative to keep his distance from Mo Yi upon sensing his scent. But now, what exactly did he want to do?
Originally, Bai Ren didn’t have much of a feeling towards Haisha, but now, he viewed this person with hostility.
He couldn’t tolerate anyone coveting his partner, regardless of their intentions.
Until he wiped away the lingering scent on Mo Yi’s shoulder and then threw Mo Yi’s coat into the washing machine, Bai Ren, who had been staring fiercely at the clothes in the machine, made Mo Yi realize that something was wrong.
It was likely not just a simple act of provocation.
Thinking that Haisha only had touched his shoulder before, Mo Yi wondered what the other had done.
“Bai Ren, what’s going on? Did Haisha do something? Is there something on that piece of clothing?” Mo Yi asked anxiously, looking at his partner.
Bai Ren shook his head in response, reluctantly admitting, “It’s nothing much. That guy just left a bit of his scent on you, knowing full well that you belong to me. Our sea tribe has a different way of identifying scents. There are certain specific scents that you can’t detect.”
Hearing his partner’s explanation, Mo Yi immediately understood what was going on.
As he wasn’t originally human and had spent more time as an animal, he was familiar with leaving scent marks.

No wonder Bai Ren was angry.

When it came to giving someone a good beating, he was skilled at it!
Seeing the seriousness in Mo Yi’s eyes and hearing the determination in his words, Bai Ren couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
This wasn’t really Mo Yi’s fault. Bai Ren had already planned to deal with Haisha himself, but seeing how much his beloved cared about his feelings and unconditionally stood by his side, Bai Ren felt genuinely happy.
“Forget about giving him a beating,” Bai Ren said, leaning against the doorframe, a small smile tugging at his lips as he looked at Mo Yi. “But my mood still isn’t great. How about compensating me a little?”
Mo Yi didn’t catch the underlying meaning in Bai Ren’s words and nodded vigorously. “Sure, what compensation do you want? Do you want something, or do you want me to buy you something to eat? I can give you anything you want!”
Bai Ren loved Mo Yi’s response. He reached out and pulled Mo Yi into his arms, planting a light kiss on his forehead.
There was nothing else that could compare to his Mo Yi. Even the most delicious food couldn’t rival the warmth and companionship Mo Yi provided.
So, they were enjoying the grilled fish he had bought specially for Bai Ren, and by then, it was already dark outside.
He warmed up the dishes obediently and watched as the man across from him skillfully used the utensils and occasionally fed him. It made Mo Yi wonder if his beloved was truly gifted.
It was really amazing how quickly he learned everything. Even though he had only been in human form for a few days, he wasalready so proficient. Especially since in this lifetime, his partner and himself were a beastmen and a sea tribe member, with different forms.
Thinking about what they’ll be like after they get married… It’s just so impressive!
After finally soothing his unhappy partner, Mo Yi still felt that he needed to be more vigilant against this Haisha. He couldn’t allow incidents like today to happen again.
So when the next day came and the legion commander received excellent feedback, suggesting that Mo Yi could serve as one of the hosts for Haisha’s delegation, Mo Yi immediately refused.
Seeing Mo Yi’s firm refusal, the legion commander couldn’t help but wonder how difficult Haisha, the prince, must be to deal with. But he didn’t insist, as there were others willing to take on the role.
Haisha seemed to enjoy being in the public eye, assuming a very friendly attitude and opening his own personal account on the star network, updating his status from time to time. He even ‘accidentally’ revealed his desire to marry a beastmen.
This caused many fans of Haisha’s appearance to rejoice, and they eagerly left messages on his social media account, expressing their interest.
This further elevated the status of the sea tribe.
The royal family, faced with this official visit, naturally couldn’t slack off. Since the prince had hinted at it, they prepared a magnificent banquet.
Although it was nominally to welcome the sea tribe’s arrival, many high-ranking members of the royal family and prominent military figures were well aware that it was actually an implicit matchmaking event. Some members of the royal family and dignitaries from the military were invited.
As a newly promoted major, Mo Yi was naturally among the invited.
But he never thought it to be a matchmaking event. In his view, it was just a regular banquet. Like his daily work, he’d attend, eat something, and slip away.
But Bai Ren didn’t see it that way. He actually absorbed new things faster than Mo Yi imagined. Learning to surf the star network was naturally not difficult for him.
Especially after the last incident, he paid attention to Haisha’s updates, knowing what the other was up to.
With Haisha openly stating his desire to find a beastmen partner and previously showing goodwill towards Mo Yi while provoking him, now, as the main guest at the banquet, if he were to see his little dog there… that would be something!
Watching Mo Yi, who had already put on his military uniform, looking reserved and holding a military cap, Bai Ren couldn’t help but swallow hard.
The person he likes is top-tier; no other beastmen can compare. Just in case Haisha tries anything funny, he can’t let his future queen, who is so innocent, be deceived!
So, Bai Ren, who was supposed to stay at home, couldn’t sit still and insisted on going with Mo Yi.
“But you don’t have a formal status now. Didn’t you say you didn’t want to meet that Haisha?” Mo Yi asked, watching his partner rummaging through the closet.
“Times change,” Bai Ren replied, pulling out a set of clothes from the depths of the wardrobe. He sighed with relief that he had the foresight to buy many of his own clothes online, including formal wear, just in case.
He picked up the white suit and compared it to himself. Then, stealing a kiss from Mo Yi, he smiled and said, “Why? Don’t you want to bring your spouse to such an important occasion?”
“Bring my spouse?” Mo Yi was momentarily stunned, then immediately put on a bright smile. “Of course!”
Mo Yi’s response was swift and decisive, making Bai Ren feel like if his partner wasn’t currently in human form, his tail might have wagged off.
So, Bai Ren carefully tidied himself up and set off with Mo Yi in the car.
It must be said that Bai Ren went all out to suppress his romantic rival. His magnificent European-style white suit was embroidered with gold thread, and he had all kinds of accessories.
His meticulously groomed silver-gray hair cascaded down, with a thin braid on the left side. He even chose a ruby earring that matched his eye color and wore it on his ear.
He looked elegant and refined, exuding an aristocratic air, like a peacock with its feathers unfurled.
Even Mo Yi couldn’t help but stare, grateful that the car was on autopilot, or else he might have been sweating over their safety.
Hand in hand, they entered the banquet hall, contrasting each other in black and white. Though different in temperament, they looked exceptionally compatible.
Mo Yi’s original intention was just to make an appearance, so he didn’t arrive early and was dressed in the least eye-catching military uniform, hoping not to attract attention.
However, with the most eye-catching presence by his side, plus his own sunny and refreshing demeanor, it was hard not to be noticed by others. Two equally extraordinary men standing together, it was impossible not to draw attention.
As a result, they quickly became the focus of attention, including the protagonist of the banquet, Haisha. Standing beside him were several seafolks and a meticulously dressed-up Luo Naimei.
Luo Naimei had put in a lot of effort today, even perming his hair and wearing expensive clothes, hoping to attract everyone’s attention. However, at this moment, he found himself less eye-catching compared to Mo Yi, who had simply combed his hair and didn’t even change his clothes.
When his gaze shifted to Bai Ren next to Mo Yi, Luo Naimei’s eyes widened in astonishment. He felt he had never seen such a handsome man before, not even Haisha, whom he thought was already top-tier, could compare to half of this man.
“The king actually followed along. It seems he really likes this Major General Mo,” Haisha said casually, holding a glass of wine as he looked in the direction of Mo Yi and Bai Ren.
Luo Naimei couldn’t believe his ears upon hearing this.
Was Haisha implying that the man next to Mo Yi was the king he mentioned earlier? Wasn’t that the soft-bodied creature he had always despised?
Unexpectedly, this being in human form turned out to be so extraordinary!
But even with such a perfect and flawless absolute powerhouse, why would he fall for someone like the rough-looking Mo Yi?
Mo Yi: With words like yours, you deserve at least three burlap sacks.
