“If we are going to go to Turkey, since Feng Yue and Leopard Girl also have a mission there, we can hitch a ride from them.” Bai Chunian picked up his phone to give Feng Yue a call, “Their plane should be taking off from the Greenfly Island Base, if we rush over we can still make it. We can even go over to the area with pink corals to visit Ai Ai.”

At first, Rimbaud nodded, but upon hearing that Bai Chunian wanted to dive into the ocean and see the pearls, he changed his mind, “Did we not just leave Greenfly Island, why are we going back?”

Now that Bai Chunian had returned to mimicking a human form, his IQ was no longer comparable to that of a white lion. As his recovery was too sudden, Rimbaud had yet to find an opportunity to hide Aileen. Xiao Bai was incredibly sharp; as soon as he got near, he would discover Aileen’s presence. When that happened, he would definitely demand an explanation.

Rimbaud did not wish to describe to him how he had threatened the human race. kFzbq8

“Why shouldn’t we go? We could save several tens of thousands of dollars in plane ticket fares. Wouldn’t it be nice to buy big scallops with the money saved?”

Rimbaud suddenly slammed the alpha against the wall, staring at him with his pupils that had stretched into thin lines, “What I have is money, there is no need to save.”

Bai Chunian, who had bumped into the wall, blinked in confusion.

Ah well, as long as wifey is happy.

This was the first time Rimbaud had taken a plane through the normal procedures. From the moment he entered the airport, it was as if a new world had opened up to him.

They carried a backpack each and looked like university students on holiday.

After Bai Chunian booked the tickets online, he went to the automatic ticket collection machine, swiped his ID and pressed a few buttons on the panel, randomly operating it for a bit to collect their boarding passes. ZEwOMT

As expected, Rimbaud was struck by this novelty, and made little ohs and ahs. Following Xiao Bai’s example, he stuck his ID onto the machine and said loudly towards the ticket slot, “I want a mushroom and chicken rice bowl.”

Behind him stood several passengers queueing up to collect their boarding pass. Upon hearing this, they immediately huddled over to watch the beautiful blonde haired foreigner, amazed and shocked that he could speak Mandarin so fluently but could not understand domestic technology. They couldn’t help but sigh and lament that their country was so rich and powerful, while the lives of foreigners were filled with such hardship.

Bai Chunian hastily dragged his wife away, “Shhh, shhh, this machine can only spit out tickets, it’s not a vending machine.”

“Then we should notify the boss and ask him to restock the machine.” Rimbaud still did not feel that his inability to buy food from the machine was his problem. VAN0Ej

They made a beeline for the security check channel, but before that, the ground staff stopped Rimbaud, asking him to discard the mineral water bottle in his hands.

Rimbaud was stunned, “But it’s still new, I’ve only had one sip.”

These were the rules of the airport, the ground staff had to try their hardest to get him to cooperate with them.

Rimbaud was baffled, “This is very clean water, so clean it can even nourish eleven of my scales, where are you taking it to?” Tnlj4v

Rimbaud silently took off his backpack, opening the drawstring to reveal a whole carton of mineral water in it.

“It’s my fault, I didn’t check what you prepared when we left.” Bai Chunian sighed, forcefully patting Rimbaud on the head twice.

However, he really could not stomach so much water. He pulled the ground staff aside, secretly telling him, “My brother, let’s do it this way, you bring this carton of water back to your colleagues and give it out, or donate it to the disaster area or something. Please don’t throw it away, he can sense it, if you just throw it away he’ll be so angry he might eat a child. How about this?” ksu5e

The ground staff awkwardly nodded, making a mental note that these two were definitely paranoid and had severe Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

Bai Chunian led Rimbaud forward, hugging his shoulders to comfort him, “It’s okay wifey, this is not a big issue. After all, it’s your first time at the airport, you’re bound to be unfamiliar with the procedures and rules, next time you’ll be familiar with them. Try being a bit more polite to these humans, we came out to play so being happy is most important, right?”

Rimbaud thought about it for a bit, and cheerfully agreed.

After much difficulty entering the security clearance channel, they were met with another issue. 9tu5Wz

This was because when Rimbaud crossed the security gate, the equipment would experience interference and malfunction, making it impossible to detect Rimbaud.

This raised the suspicions of the security officers and the surrounding armed police and they quickly surrounded him. The security lady realized that Rimbaud might be carrying signal-jamming equipment  and asked in a serious tone, “Are you carrying any controlled knives, guns, ammunition, drugs or other contraband items?”

Rimbaud furrowed his brows and spread open his palms to gather water vapor in the air and use Steel Hydration to cast a pistol, quietly asking the security lady, “How many do you want?”

Bai Chunian was dumbfounded, he dragged Rimbaud back towards him, “Do you think this is a dark web marketplace?” K3zNOR

Upon seeing the situation, the armed police surrounded them and almost used a riot fork to press Bai Chunian on the ground and subdue him. Bai Chunian waved his hands repeatedly, shouting, “Don’t, don’t, stop, stop, this is a misunderstanding…a misunderstanding!” He hurriedly gave a call to a friend working at the Alliance Police Department. Thankfully, Rimbaud had also worked at the Alliance Police Department for a few days and they had complete files on him. Finally, his identity was verified and he was able to pass through the security check smoothly.

Too much time had been spent on clearing up minute details, by the time they reached the boarding gate, passengers had already begun to board. They had bought economy class tickets because business class was twice the cost and it was simply too expensive.

Rimbaud looked at the number on the boarding pass to find his seat. His seat was in the middle, while Bai Chunian sat on the right against the window, the left side was empty.

“Wifey, sit in my seat, I’m against the window, do you want to be against the window?” 2Ela r

Rimbaud shook his head. He would still be a little uncomfortable even if he sat next to the window.

“Sure, that’s alright, but if you begin to feel airsick, tell me. I stored the medicine in my pocket.

“Are you excited?” Bai Chunian asked as he helped Rimbaud to wear his seatbelt, showing half of his snaggletooth in the process. Rimbaud lowered his head and kissed the alpha on his nose bridge, “What does excited mean?”

“It’s just when you’re so happy that your heartbeat quickens.” mks0Xd

“When I have sex with you I’m very excited. Now I’m not excited at all.”

“But I’m especially excited.” Bai Chunian buried his face in Rimbaud’s neck and calmed himself by taking deep breaths. “We are going to a beach resort, not to kill people and not to blow up buildings. I don’t need to carry a gun or mentally go over the details of the plan along the way. I don’t even need to worry about my team members dying there and not returning with me. We are actually going there to have fun! I don’t dare to even believe this.”

Before, when he was on missions, although he acted composed and relaxed, this was only due to his self-confidence in his abilities. The stress and worry that most people should have was definitely present. On the other hand, the alpha right in front of him now had completely thrown away his stoic demeanor and was as happy as a primary school kid on their first class outing in spring.

Before long, someone sat in the seat next to Rimbaud. IqS4RV

This person was a university student who seemed like an alpha. He was very tall and muscular, like he worked out in the gym. He was also carrying a camera bag. Overall, the way he looked was not bad at all.

Even before the young man sat down, he had become smitten with Rimbaud. His eyes widened and he was stunned for several seconds, only reacting when passengers behind him began to rush him to stow his suitcase and sit down.

As soon as he sat down, he sent a text to his friends, “Guys, I’m sitting next to a handsome foreign boy, fuck, he has a high nose bridge, blue eyes, golden hair and he’s particularly pale. His looks are top-tier.”

Brother 1: Show me a pic LqYjUS

Brother 2: Omega?

‘No idea, I personally think he’s an o tho.’

Brother 3: Idiot, don’t get too invested in flirting, you might end up both being the same position.

‘You guys wait a bit, later I’ll find an opportunity and strike up a conversation with him. The only thing is, there’s an alpha sitting on his right side. It seems like they don’t know each other so it shouldn’t be his boyfriend right? He looks pretty young.’ B42nzl

Brother 4: Test him! At most you’ll get a beating, what else can he even go. What if you even win the fight?

When the plane took off, it was already 2:30 a.m. The bustling city outside the window drew further and further away, and at 10000 meters above ground, it finally turned into a blurry mosaic, before vanishing into the night.

Through the window, Rimbaud could see some stars floating in the sky. He couldn’t help but reach out to try and touch them.

Bai Chunian also turned his head to gaze out the window with him, “The night sky is beautiful, isn’t it.” 1i7Epb

Rimbaud said, “That’s just the reflection of the sea.”

After the plane stabilized, Bai Chunian flipped through his phone sleepily. Before he had gotten on the plane, He Suowei had sent over countless photos. At the time, he had only bothered to download them and not look through them in detail.

There were pictures from the military dog competition, where He Suowei took photos with the winning military dog. There were also some photos of the two little wolves from the He family quarreling with each other. He Suowei left a message complaining about how some prince was going to train with the Storm Forces so he was going to be extremely busy.

This prince was actually referring to the nephew of the CEO of PBB, Gu Wulü, the husky who was previously in the same team as He Suowei at the ATWL exam. His J1 ability was Unleashed Dog, and according to rumors, he had already undergone second-grade differentiation so he definitely had some strong abilities. However, he seemed a bit difficult to discipline. mR OZC

Bai Chunian wanted to poke some fun at him, but the airplane had no internet connection, so he had no choice but to wait for them to land, then reply.

Honestly, this trip was not completely stress-free. This time, they were going to visit Rimbaud’s friends, so he definitely could not be too informal. He had spent a few days preparing gifts and even searched up some facts about the God of Wind, Aeolus, beforehand.

This person was literally a deity on a similar level to Rimbaud. The more Bai Chunian thought about this, the more anxious he got.

“He’s just another idiot, there’s no need for you to worry.” Rimbaud, who could see Xiao Bai’s worry, comforted him with a gentle smile. “If he makes you upset or uncomfortable in any way, you can just scold him, or tell me to scold him.” 43pdra

“No worries wifey, I know what to do.” Bai Chunian became a lot more relaxed and gradually began to feel sleepy. Their journey was still long, and the plane would arrive in Paris in the morning for a layover.

He naturally rested against Rimbaud’s side, his eyes becoming squinty slits as he dozed off. Ordinary passengers sat all around him. There was no hijacking, no searching for his jump site. He was enveloped by a sense of security that he had never felt before and slowly fell asleep.

Rimbaud did not feel sleepy yet and plugged in his earphones to play games. On Greenfly Island, Lu Yan had taught him how to play lots of games and his favorite was a game called Dancing Line. It was a rhythm game where you followed the beat and pressed buttons. He found it quite fun.

Out of the blue, a hand stretched out from beside him and gently tugged on his earphone cord. Rimbaud took a look at the person on his left, the owner of the hand. It was the photography student who had sat down on his left just now. 68L bz

The game was now interrupted. Rimbaud pulled out his earphones with some irritation, propping his head up with his hand and glaring coldly at the student.

The alpha youngster used fluent English to chat him up, “I’m a photography student on an exchange trip to Paris.”

This alpha’s English pronunciation was not too bad, it could still be counted as fairly fluent. After finishing his sentence, he seemed quite satisfied with himself.

Rimbaud gave him a befuddled look, “Are you a foreigner? I can’t understand what you’re saying.” 2IKJoL

The young alpha was taken aback for a second, then quickly smiled, “Oh, you speak mandarin very well. The moment I got on the plane, I saw you and you seemed to literally shine. You’re very charismatic.”

Rimbaud raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, “Alpha, are you flirting with me?”

The young man had never met such a straightforward omega before. He felt that he had miscalculated his moves a bit and could only try coughing twice as a tactic, “About that, I’m a student majoring in photography. I found you too beautiful, could I take a photograph for you?”

Then, under the guise of sending the picture, he could add his contact to his friends list, perfect. 1eirc2

“Ok.” Rimbaud generously agreed. He could not remember when, but at some point, he began to enjoy taking photographs. Usually, he liked to take pictures of Xiao Bai, but he also liked others to take pictures of him, to capture his image in a frame.

The youngster was very happy. He took out his camera and checked Rimbaud out from different angles. To be honest, he looked good from every single angle.

He brazenly indulged in Rimbaud’s beauty, taking two more pictures of him.

Suddenly, another face appeared in frame— S9ky s

The alpha sitting to the right of the handsome omega awoke and rested his chin on the omega’s shoulder, looking at him with his head tilted sideways.

Under dim lighting, his blue cat eyes glowed coldly, their corners slightly raised, as though he was a wild cat, glaring at someone who stole a dried anchovy right out of his mouth.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

The youngster shuddered in fright and immediately put down his camera.

Bai Chunian stretched lazily, “This plane is a little bit warm, I’d better take off my wedding ring.” 3SC916

He pulled out two marriage certificates from his pocket, opening them such that the page with their photos faced outwards. With his ring-wearing hand, he began to use it to fan himself, “The quality of this marriage certificate is so good, it’s much cooler than other nonsense fans.”

Translator's Note
