Master Bai! This Celestial Fox Spirit Is Asking For Divorce Chapter 314: Episode 29.5 Grumpy Bai Tingfeng Is Back!

Admiral Wu Jin awkwardly shifted his sitting position. Bai Tingfeng’s facial expression beca passive, and Shen Yuan curiously turned to look directly at Pri Minister Mo.

Chairman Mao straightened his posture, "We have been constantly collaborating due to the threats of the Cardinal. You could say that this closeness is the product of trauma bonding."

"Collaborating, I see," Pri Minister Mo’s eyes disappeared due to his bright smile. "Then that ans you are also close with my beloved nephew, Mo Zhu?"

As if rehearsed, all necks twisted towards Shen Yuan’s direction. Close? Hell yeah! They butt heads and insult each other from head to toe like besties!

Shen Yuan wanted to get frank with Pri Minister Mo and say that his nephew is an aspiring howrecker!

Fortunately for the man, the celestial fox spirit is in a good mood after his husband’s performance. His satisfaction index was enough for him to gain an angel’s halo for the entire night.

Shen Yuan just smiled as an answer to Pri Minister Mo.

The man’s eyes didn’t linger on Shen Yuan’s smile for a long ti, and he continued to look around the opposite table.

The celestial fox spirit noticed that subtlety but didn’t take it to heart. He just raised his vigilance towards this pri minister.

Pri Minister Mo watched his surrounding table. That was when he noticed his nephew’s absence.

"Speaking of Mo Zhu, where is he?"

There is a palpable awkward silence at the four great families’ table. Mo Lihua broke it after a long pause, "He excused himself for tonight. He’s getting busy with his laptop because an urgent business that needed his attention suddenly popped up. But don’t worry, elder brother. Zhu will quickly rejoin us once finished."

Shen Yuan must admit. Mo Lihua’s quick thinking is impressive. Her impromptu excuse is better than the excuses he made so far. As expected from soone from a political family.

Pri Minister Mo’s forehead creased. "What could be his business? His boss is here, enjoying the party with him. Can’t he take a break? He’s wasting this opportunity to bond with people from the sa generation."

"I will ssage him to hurry up," Mo Lihua told Pri Minister Mo. She took out her phone before typing a reprimanding ssage to his son. She didn’t know Mo Zhu was wailing in the restroom with a total stranger.

Pri Minister Mo gave Shen Yuan, Bai Tingfeng and Wu Jin a aningful stare.

"Our families have been "friends" for years. But what we have was far from what I consider a deep connection. I could even feel that we have a transactional friendship. It was a very cold feeling that’s why I will be happy if the next generation of our family forms a genuine friendship."

"Just imagine the things we could do if all our families were unconditionally united," Pri Minister Mo clasped his both hands together. "A solid friendship between the elite families could go miles in developing our country."

Shen Yuan watched the man with his lips slightly askew. Okay, sothing about this man unsettles him. The celestial fox spirit knew at that mont that he will not like this Pri Minister Mo. Not tonight and not in the future.

Shen Yuan could also feel that the feeling is mutual on the side of Pri Minister Mo.

The foxfire beast on his lap also seed to agree. It is making a gagging sound that translates fuck you in their body language.

"Stop making big reactions. He amounts nothing to . I will send you away if you puke your dinner on my designer suit." He whispered and tapped the foxfire beast to make it stop. Luckily, his threat worked.

"We also want that kind of friendship," To Shen Yuan’s surprise, Bai Tingfeng spoke first. "But if there’s no sense of propriety and respect between the people in question, then never mind, friendship. Only hostility—or at best civility—will be exchanged amongst us."

Pri Minister Mo was astonished at the sharp biting words coming from Bai Tingfeng. He looked rather amused. "Of course, differences must be addressed first. That’s the more reason for us to continuously work together. Because just like what Chairman Mao said, trauma could bring closeness to people."

The people around the table looked at each other. They didn’t argue and comnt on the pri minister’s comnt. But internally, they feel off towards the pri minister.

Is he aware about the friction between Shen Yuan and Mo Lihua? That question is bound to be unanswered as none of them have the cheek to ask the pri minister up front.

The al soon completed its course, and the period of socialization began.

Several decorated artists were invited to perform while the guests were busy, flying around like a butterfly. Ballad singers occupied most of the lineup as their songs fit the formal occasion.

But since idols are on the constant rise in popularity these days, Mo Lihua invited a few who belonged to the top idol groups.

With so beautiful music playing in the background, Shen Yuan and Bai Tingfeng started socializing with other guests. They joined Chairman Mao and Director Song.

While Admiral Wu Jin went to et a few invited military officials.

The celestial fox spirit thought going around the banquet hall was a good exercise for digesting all the protein he devoured. Not to ntion, he finally freed himself from the uncomfortable presence of the Mo family.

"You seed to dislike, Pri Minister Mo," Shen Yuan sneakily whispered to his husband. They were walking behind Chairman Mao and his husband, and he didn’t want them to hear a potentially sensitive topic.

"I don’t have anything against him," Bai Tingfeng paused, looking for the right words to say.

"That is until this night happened. I know you are not concerned about it, and I can see you not caring about not knowing what I noticed, but I just want to let you know. That man doesn’t like you."

"I know," Shen Yuan responded nonchalantly, surprising Bai Tingfeng.

"You know?! How?"

Shen Yuan laughed smugly. "Is it still surprising when his actions are obvious? He’s excluding in the conversation, and not even once did he look at . If those are not indications of dislike, then I guess I have to assu he has a crush on ."

Bai Tingfeng looked at Shen Yuan and the conspicuous foxfire beast on his shoulder. He had no clue what to say. As expected, his husband was sharp like a brand-new sword.

He didn’t deserve to be overlooked by so high-positioned alpha.

"Tonight’s banquet was supposed to celebrate our successful actions against the Cardinals. You and Chairman Mao were supposed to give a speech earlier regarding that. However, Pri Minister Mo craftily moved up the program." Bai Tingfeng instead reported to his husband. It is evident in his clenched jaws that he is still pissed.

Shen Yuan just massaged the firm arm he was holding, "Just let him be sneaky. As long as he doesn’t cause harm to and our family, I don’t mind him pulling off tricks from the background."

If his character analysis is right, Pri Minister Mo is harder to deal with compared to Mo Lihua.

He perfected the art of being two-faced.

Bai Tingfeng frowned, "I don’t like it."

Shen Yuan laughed at his grumpy husband, "I almost forgot that you’re quite unpleasant to the people you hate. Brings back to the old tis."

"Shen Yuan, Bai Tingfeng, co here," Chairman Mao called them out. Shen Yuan saw the older couple near a table. He and his husband followed suit.

"We have honourable guests from the Hunter Association of two great countries. et Trystan Kingsley of Country A and Park Eunkyung of Country S." Chairman Mao introduced the guests seated at that table.

Shen Yuan and Bai Tingfeng are mildly surprised. They are familiar with the bulky alpha male! It’s the playboy dude who ambushed them in the airport lounge!

Shen Yuan rembered him very well because he was the second S-class awakener he t in this world. Not to ntion, his little assistant also dared to read his mind.

"Fancy seeing you here," Shen Yuan greeted Trystan Kingsley. He politely shook the man’s hand. Bai Tingfeng also followed his husband’s example with a tight grip. It was strong enough to pop a few muscle knots in Trystan’s hand.

Trystan smiled despite it all and gave a warm greeting. "It’s been a while since we last t. It’s weird... and nice to see you all lovey-dovey now."

Shen Yuan smirked smugly. Well, they have gone a long way, but it was all worth it.

He moved to greet the other guest: a beautiful east asian female alpha.

"Nice to et you. I am Shen Yuan. This is my husband, Bai Tingfeng."

The representative from Country S smiled beautifully, "It’s a pleasure to finally et you. I am Park Eun-Kyung. I’m a big fan of you as a couple."

Shen Yuan’s smile beca wider. What a great flatterer.

"Well, it was a surprise that you know one of our honoured guests. Just to let you know, these two helped Xia Jinhai in his investigation. They greased up our request with their endorsent. That’s why we finally gained access to their records," Chairman Mao explained to Shen Yuan.

"Xia Jinhai called earlier. He’s flying tonight from Country S. I think he finally found a break in the case. Thanks to these guests’ help."

"Wow!" Shen Yuan was pleasantly surprised. This night just got even more interesting.
