Chapter 35: No Dating at Such a Young Age

Chapter 35: You're Only Palm-Sized, No Dating Allowed

At first, Bai Yeye tried to convince himself it was just his imagination, but when he turned around and saw the furious Long Rui, he knew he was done for tonight.

Long Rui looked a lot like Long Shen, both handsome men that passing omegas would often stop and stare at.

"YeYe, come here!" Long Rui said, barely holding back his anger. Who was this alpha holding his precious little brother?

Bai Yeye tried to get down, but Shen Yu held him in place. The alpha's possessiveness flared his own temper: "What is your relationship with him?"

Bai Ruoshui was an omega, so it was fine for him to hug Bai Yeye. But Long Rui? He was an alpha, so that was off-limits.

Bai Yeye didn't know what to say. As he hesitated, Long Rui strode forward, grabbed Bai Yeye's paw, and tried to yank him into his own arms.

Shen Yu held tight, pulling Bai Yeye's other paw.

So Bai Yeye ended up suspended in the air like a starfish, "Woof woof! What are you two doing?! Put me down right now!"

What an awkward and embarrassing position!

Both alphas let go, glaring at each other coldly. If looks could kill, Bai Yeye, stuck in the middle, would already be a goner.

"Shen Yu?" Long Rui stepped closer before recognizing who he was.

"Yes, it's me."

They actually knew each other, but they weren't close.

Long Rui had previously admired Shen Yu and intended to befriend him, but now, seeing him holding his precious little brother without permission, his eyes flashed with sparks of anger.

"Who gave you the nerve to hold him?"

Back then, he let his guard down once, and Bai Ruoshui got snatched up by Bai Yuanzhou. Now, he'd let his guard down again. Was he going to lose another brother?

His tone was harsh, and Shen Yu wasn't going to grovel: "What's it to you?"

Even the emperor of their planet wouldn't dare to boss him around. Did this foreign prince think he could?

"He's this prince's Samoyed, so of course it's my business."

Shen Yu sneered, determined to oppose him: "As long as he's here, he's my Samoyed."

Long Rui squinted, looking like he was about to throw a punch.

Shen Yu didn't back down, ready to counterattack the moment he did.

Bai Yeye, stuck in between, felt as fragile as a marshmallow about to melt: "Don't be mad, don't be mad. Let's all talk nicely."

"Bai Yeye, right now, immediately, come back with me!" Long Rui's patience for letting him play had run out.

Seeing Long Rui about to grab him, Bai Yeye quickly hid behind Shen Yu: "I, I don't want to go back just yet."

Shen Yu caught Long Rui's hand reaching for Bai Yeye: "He said he doesn't want to leave. Please leave."

Long Rui shook off his hand: "Shen Yu, I respect you as a man, so I haven't resorted to violence. Don't bite the hand that feeds you."

"I appreciate the honor, Your Highness, but I don't need it."

The moment he finished speaking, Long Rui threw a punch at his face. Shen Yu quickly countered.

Bai Yeye paced anxiously: "Stop fighting! Stop fighting! Take it to the dance studio—ah, crap, just stop fighting!!"

Their commotion was too loud. The mall's security quickly arrived to maintain order, but no one dared to intervene. If they got hit by mistake, they'd be dead at twenty.

The two got more serious, starting to aim for lethal points. Bai Yeye steeled himself and jumped between them in an opening.

"No more fighting! Or I'm gonna be mad!"

Long Rui's voice was icy: "You dare to be mad? I'm not done with you yet."

Bai Yeye trembled, his voice softening: "Don't fight, okay? I'll go with you."

"YeYe!" Shen Yu didn't want him to leave.

Bai Yeye leaped into his arms and took the chance to slip something into his hand: "I have to go with him. See you later."

After saying that, he added in a voice only the two of them could hear: "If I don't come back tonight, you gotta come find me, okay?"

He gave Shen Yu a reassuring look, and Shen Yu had no choice but to let him go.

Long Rui picked Bai Yeye up and patted his back while scolding him as he walked: "You're getting bolder and bolder! Tell me, what's your relationship with him?"

"Just friends."

"What kind of friend takes his dog to a sex shop? That's pretty bold."

Bai Yeye's ears drooped: "I didn't know. I just thought it was interesting and ran in to look."

Long Rui asked again: "Why did you let him carry you? Didn't your brother tell you that no alpha except your own is allowed to touch you?"

Bai Yeye was speechless for a moment, then said: "I got hurt last time I went to find Wu Shao and couldn't walk easily. Brother Ruoshui knows about it. You can ask him!"

Unfortunately, he had taken off his bandages this morning because he thought they were ugly; otherwise, he would have solid evidence now.

Long Rui still didn't believe him: "The way you look at him is different from usual."

Bai Yeye asked guiltily: "What's different?"

"In the past, your eyes had only two expressions: pure stupidity and ravenous hunger. But when you look at him, it's straight-up lust."

Bai Yeye blushed: "You're the one who's straight-up lust! I'm an innocent Yeye, I don't listen to that kind of filth!"

Long Rui said impatiently: "You'd better not. You're only palm-sized—don't go trying to date!"

It was a family thing: they all thought Bai Yeye was tiny.

Bai Yeye obediently leaned against his shoulder: "I get it, okay?"

"You didn't reveal your identity, did you?"

"No, they all think I'm just a pet dog."

Long Rui scoffed: "They all think you're a pet dog? Don't be too naive. Shen Yu definitely knows you can shift into human form; he's just not saying anything."

"How is that possible! I've never changed in front of him!"

"Forget about other things. Just the fact that you could lead him to Wu Shao—do you really think he'd believe Wu Shao would go out of his way to mess with a pet dog? If it were you, would you believe it?"

Bai Yeye froze. Indeed, if it were him now, he wouldn't believe it either.

"Good thing you can turn into a Samoyed—he probably won't connect the dots to your real identity."

No one would believe the Galactic Overlord is a Samoyed; that's Bai Yeye's best disguise.

"But for your safety, you have to come home!"

Bai Yeye protested: "I'm not going back!"

"You don't have a choice. I came not only to take you, but also to take your second brother."

On small matters, Long Rui would let them have their way without question, but when it came to personal safety, Long Rui wouldn't give them a choice.

He took Bai Yeye to a prearranged hotel and locked him up. The whole hotel was guarded by tens of thousands of people, making escape nearly impossible.

As night fell and Bai Yeye was feeling dejected, he heard tapping at the window. He looked up and ran over, opening it with surprise and delight.

Shen Yu held out his arms to him: "Yeye, come here."

Bai Yeye jumped toward him without fear, unafraid of falling even if it meant breaking every bone.

Shen Yu caught him and sneaked back into the base. Bai Yeye wagged his tail excitedly: "I knew you'd come. He'll definitely come looking for me later. Just tell him I'm not here."

Shen Yu carried him into his room and studied him: "Can I ask what exactly your relationship with him is?"
