Bai Chunian took a step out of the elevator and randomly grabbed a colleague to ask, “Is the president here?”
The colleague said that he hadn’t seen the president come to work yet. Bai Chunian then took Rimbaud into the president’s office with a piece of mind.
The door wasn’t locked, so he twisted the door knob and went in. It could be that he was in a rush when he got off of work and forgot to lock the door. However, the president usually put important documents in the safe in the lounge, and only some unimportant things were put on the office desk.
Bai Chunian scanned the lounge door—it’s locked. He felt relieved and quickened his steps to the desk. He pulled out the roses from yesterday out of the vase and changed it with the juicy Terrazza bouquet he brought.
He carefully arranged the stems, and from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of an extra photo frame on the desk.
Bai Chunian picked it up, looked at it, and was stunned. The photo was very new and had only been developed not long ago. The background was an instructor’s dorm on Greenfly Island. The president and Uncle Jin were sitting on the sofa. Rimbaud was leaning on the corner of the sofa, leaning his head and looking out the window.
A line of elegant handwriting was written on the lower right-hand corner of the photo, “Family photo taken at Greenfly Island Training Base, December of the year K036, for memories.”
Bai Chunian looked at it over and over again for a long time. Finally, he put it back on the desk, as if no one had touched it. When he retracted his hand, he almost knocked over the glass cup due to being distracted.
Rimbaud raised a hand to steady the glass for him. “Do you like this photo? I could ask Yan Yi directly and have it sent to me. You can print as many as you want.”
“Are you guys that close to each other?” Bai Chunian froze for a moment. Rimbaud lifted his phone to show it to him; the top person on the chat screen was Yan Yi.
LoveKittenRandi♡: “(Voice message) My Xiao Bai is in your office changing out the flowers.”
“Hey! Don’t say it! Retract it, hurry.”

Bai Chunian quickly turned away, facing the full-length mirror. He could now see more clearly.
He thought that the president had worked overtime last night so he slept in the lounge, but he didn’t expect that two minutes later, Uncle Jin also walked out of the lounge room. He yawned contentedly, raised his feet, and used the tip of his shoes to sweep away a few stray falcon feathers on the ground. The sweet scent of Christmas rose intertwined with milk candy spread out from the lounge.
“Xiao Bai?” Lu Shangjin patted Bai Chunian on the shoulder naturally. “Why are you facing away from us? Let me see if you have changed.”
Bai Chunian originally had no intention to meet them. The fault lied in his wife, the traitor, who betrayed him.
“Jin…Uncle Jin…” Bai Chunian turned around stiffly.
When Lu Shangjin looked at him, his blood pressure immediately rose. This kid, what is that on his tongue? Tongue piercing? Not only was his hair snow-white, but his hair was growing out. He didn’t know what he was wearing on his eyes, but they were as blue as the sapphire he spent 30 million last week to give to Yan Yan. His eyelashes were dyed the same color as his hair. Wearing a black collar around his neck was one thing, but the most crucial part was the alluring blue fish pattern covering from the throat downward. There were a lot of bite marks and hickeys on his neck, which were definitely from that fish.
Rimbaud came over, naturally putting his arm on Bai Chunian’s shoulder. He slightly raised his chin and released a wisp of musk-rose oppressive pheromone to declare his sovereignty.
Both have the same grade, so Rimbaud’s pheromones didn’t make Lu Shangjin feel oppressed, but the same oppressive pheromones from Lu Shangjin couldn’t threaten Rimbaud either.
Bai Chunian said awkwardly, “Erm, call him uncle.”
Rimbaud and Lu Shangjin stared at each other for a few seconds, as if waiting for the other party to call them uncle.
The scene was even more awkward.
Yan Yi smiled lightly. “Just forget it.” He took out a document from the locked drawer and handed it to Bai Chunian. “After the Research Institute was closed down, all the invoices for the experimental subjects were voided. I had someone go through the adoption process; this is your household registration file and ID card.”
Bai Chunian blinked. He awkwardly rubbed his palms on his pants before taking the document.
His household registration was stacked together with Lu Yan’s, and his ID card was brand new. However, there was an age limit for adoptions, so his new ID card said 17 years old on it. The month, day, and date follow the day he emerged from the marble.
“Boss, thank you, I…” Bai Chunian licked his lips.
“Boss?” Lu Shangjin teased with his hands in his pockets.
“Mn…un–uncle…”
“Uncle?”
“Um. Dad.”
Bai Chunian blurted out. He couldn’t help but feel awkward after saying that and scratched his hair, which caused Lu Shangjin to laugh out loud.
Yan Yi called Rimbaud over to the window, handing him a freshly brewed cup of coffee.
Rimbaud took the coffee, leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, shook the mug, and took a sip. It was cold; there were ice cubes inside to cool down the coffee quickly.
“You must have a lot of admirers.” Rimbaud looked at the farthest coastline through the window and said, “You have the charm to attract people.”
“Same as you. I also decided on one person.” Yan Yi smiled. “Where are you planning to go next?”
“I’ll take Xiao Bai to tour the territory; I promised him that,” Rimbaud answered. “Oh, he said this was called traveling around the world; it’s all the same anyway.”
“That’s not bad. Come to think of it, we haven’t taken an actual trip in a long time. I’ve been planning to build several schools recently to specially teach Merfolk language. Is there anyone in your clan that is willing to come to become a teacher?”
Rimbaud thought about it; he did indeed thought of a suitable candidate.
“Build it.” Rimbaud put down the empty mug and pinched Yan Yi’s rabbit ears while he wasn’t paying attention.

Until the two of them left the office, Lu Shangjin was still telling Xiao Bai to run back quickly to them if he was bullied. He was more worried about him than Lu Yan. At the very least, Lu Yan didn’t have a cocky ocean overlord as his boyfriend.
The two of them entered the elevator, and the doors slowly closed.
Bai Chunian’s hands were still trembling. Although he didn’t show his excitement and joy on his face, he was jumping for joy inside.
Rimbaud moved closer to him, held his chin to slightly open his mouth, and asked with a brow raised, “Calling others ‘Dad’ can make you this happy?”
“No, it’s not the same. How can it be the same?” Bai Chunian patiently explained to the fish in detail the difference between a father’s title that represents family ties and calling daddy in bed for excitement.
“I won’t listen.” Rimbaud used his index finger and middle finger to pinch the tip of Bai Chunian’s tongue to make him stop talking. He tilted his head to lick and kiss the Dead Sea eye embedded on the alpha’s tongue.
The condensed Dead Sea heart rock had fused with Bai Chunian, connecting to the tiny nerves and vessels in his body, and was able to sense the subtle killing intent in the surroundings. In fact, it was more sensitive than the erectile organ and could be directly stimulated when kissed.
Bai Chunian made a moaning sound. He suddenly found himself facing the surveillance in the elevator, and the discomposure on his face was probably all seen by the surveillance system.
The elevator finally descended to the first floor. Rimbaud playfully patted Bai Chunian’s flushed face, then got off first. Bai Chunian suddenly came to his senses and grabbed Rimbaud’s wrist, pulling him back. He put him over his shoulders and slipped out from the back garden. He also stole a small handful of Sasha angels and tied them up to give to his wife. As he was leaving, he was discovered by the mummy again.
“I’m going to sell my wife at the seafood market for two and a half yuan per catty.” Bai Chunian ran out of the garden carrying Rimbaud.
Rimbaud didn’t struggle either, lying on Xiao Bai’s shoulder and looking at his phone. “Randi, let’s go to Mount Haemus in Thrace. Teach me how to buy a ticket, I want to go there on a plane. It’s tiring swimming there myself.”
“What is that place? I have never heard of it.”
“My friend, Aeolus, lives there.”
“Give me the phone and I’ll look it up.” Bai Chunian put Rimbaud down and leaned against the wall. He grabbed a grass stem and held it in his mouth. “Oh, the Aegean Sea and the Black Sea one, it’s a bit far. We can first fly to Turkey and then switch to other transportation. Is this the first time you mentioned this friend? I don’t think I heard you talk about him before.”
The more Bai Chunian thought about it, the more the name sounded familiar to him, so he just entered the name into the search engine.
…
“Wife…this buddy of yours, is he seriously your friend…?”
….
Rimbaud put his hands in his pockets, leaned on the wall, and said casually, “Yes, seriously.”
