The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 34 - The Scum Is An Opportunist

"Oh?" Cheng Sheng said and smiled. "May I ask this sir how is this blanket special?" he asked.

However, the beggar didn't answer. "Just a bun will do. You can take the blanket." He said and crossed his legs. His clogs made a clanking sound against the ground when it hit it.

"A bun?" Cheng Sheng said, then saw Fei Yin walking towards him. "It seems like this blanket isn't that special for it only costs a bun?" he said and looked at the dirty blanket. "I'll give you three bun since the material of this blanket is good." He told the beggar.

The beggar didn't refuse nor accept. "You will know its use once it decides to follow you." He said. "And, you don't know the value of the food you are eating." He added and looked at Fei Yin.

"What do you mean?" Cheng Sheng asked, puzzled.

"Shidi." Fei Yin called who reached them.

Cheng Sheng looked at Fei Yin. Then, he took out three meat buns and wrapped them with his handkerchief. He took out a small chair from his qiankun pouch and put it on the ground beside the beggar. Then, he laid down the handkerchief with the meat buns inside. "Here." He said as he put the dirty blanket inside his qiankun pouch. "We'll be taking our leave." He said.

The beggar only waved his cane. Then, he removed his wide straw hat and watched Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng reunite with Li Tian and Feng Mo who were finished shopping. He took one of the meat buns and ate it. "These are the protagonist's handmade food." The beggar said, his eyes are clear and bright. "That Cheng Sheng shouldn't carelessly give these to the others." He muttered as he munched the food.

"Are you done?" someone asked him.

The beggar froze and turned to look at the man wearing a bright smile. He's looking at him. "How did you find me?" the beggar asked.

"I'm omnipotent." The man answered and took the beggar away. The beggar waved his cane and the two meat buns together with the small chair disappeared.

Feng Mansion.

"Thank you very much for these gifts." Madame Feng said as she and her husband received their gifts. "Mo-er…" she said and smiled as her husband patted Feng Mo's shoulder.

Feng Mo's eyes became misty as he hugged his parents tight. "I'm home." he said.

They smiled and patted his head. "Come. Let's go inside." Madame Feng said and led them to the open courtyard. The servants following behind them carrying their things.

The Feng family is the wealthiest in the Xinfaxian. It was their approval that made Xie Lan establishing the land possible. However, right now, the Feng family has only Feng Mo as its heir. Feng Mo is a cultivator, so no one will inherit the family. Thus, their wealth will be given to the people one they died.

A tall man wearing white clothes came out of the main hall. A book on his hand, while his other hand is behind him. "Hm?" he said and stopped when he saw them. "Madame. Daren." The man greeted the Feng couple and respectfully bowed.

The Feng couple smiled when they saw him. "Wu Bai!" Feng Mo exclaimed and ran towards the man. His face bright and he looked excited. Cheng Sheng's brows raised. Li Tian meaningfully smiled and covered his smile with his fan. Fei Yin just looked the same. Feng Mo was about to hug the man when he froze. He remembered his disciple brothers and he turned to them. The three of them immediately looked away, whistling. Feng Mo felt his face burned for some reason. He turned back to Wu Bai, embarrassed. "Wu Bai." He called. "They are my disciple brothers." He said. He had already introduced the three to his parents earlier. "Fei Yin, our da shixiong. Li Tian, our second senior brother. And Cheng Sheng, our fourth senior brother." He introduced them one by one as the three respectfully bowed. "Da shixiong. Li-shixiong. Cheng-shidi. This is Wu Bai, my tutor before I entered the Xinfaxian Sect." He said and motioned Wu Bai who was standing behind him.

Wu Bai smiled and nodded at them. "Madame. Daren. Our guests. The food is ready in the dining hall." He told them, then turned to Feng Mo. "Momo. It's good to see you again." He said and patted Feng Mo's head.

Feng Mo immediately blushed and he turned to his disciple brothers, eyes wide in shock. As expected, the three laughed. "'Momo' – " they said as they held their stomach. "Pft - !" they said.

Feng Mo's eyes narrowed and he turned to Wu Bai. "Wu Bai! I told you not to call me that!" Feng Mo said and hit Wu Bai.

Wu Bai raised his book and Feng Mo's hand hit it. "Alright, alright." He said, defeated. But, he's smiling widely. His smile is doting as he looked at Feng Mo.

Cheng Sheng, Li Tian and Fei Yin felt blinded. The Feng couple just laughed as they walked first inside the main hall.

Midnight.

Feng Mo sighed as he stared in space. His elbows on the table and his chin on his palms. His lips are pouted and the brush on the space between his nose and lips. "Can't sleep?" Wu Bai asked as he fixed Feng Mo's books. He just finished teaching Feng Mo.

Feng Mo turned to him. "I was just surprised that mother is pregnant." He said. During their dinner, his parents announced that the madame is pregnant. And it was a boy. Now, the Feng family will have an heir in the future.

Wu Bai turned to him. "Are you jealous now?" he asked and smiled. "Since I am a servant of your family, I will also teach your baby brother in the future." He told Feng Mo.

Feng Mo's eyes went wide. He rose from his seat. "You are not a servant!" he said, mad. "Who told you that?" he asked, his brows knit.

"In exchange of living here, I tutor you." Wu Bai answered.

"That doesn't mean you are our servant!" Feng Mo said, frowning.

"Then – " Wu Bai said as he walked towards Feng Mo, his expression serious. Feng Mo was taken aback and he took a step back. However, it was a wall behind him. Wu Bai trapped him between his arms and stared at his face. " – what identity will I assume?" he asked.

"Y-you – " Feng Mo said, his face red because of this intimate posture and proximity.

"We have different surnames, surely you won't say I am a part of your family?" Wu Bai asked. Then, his voice lowered. "Do you remember what I told you before?" he asked.

"W-what?" Feng Mo said.

Wu Bai raised his head and looked at Feng Mo in the eye. "If you want us to be a family – " he said as he closed the distance between them. Their lips almost brushing. " – you can only take me as your husband." He whispered. His eyes fell on Feng Mo's lips.

Feng Mo didn't know whether it was an accident or not, but when Wu Bai let go of him, he felt soft lips touched his. His heart skipped a beat and he felt butterflies on his stomach. He blushed. He looked at Wu Bai who was now standing in front of him, his hands both behind him. "You – " he said, his lips quivering. He pressed his lips, his face as red as an apple.

Wu Bai looked at him. "I know you've realized now…" he said and lowered his gaze. "… I love you." He said and looked at Feng Mo who's covering his red face. "If you accept me, then it's good. But, if you reject me – " he said. " – I will leave." He told him.

Feng Mo's eyes went wide and he looked at Wu Bai in shock. His eyes then narrowed as he realized. "Are you making me choose?! You're forcing me!" he told him.

Wu Bai calmly met his gaze. "I love you." He said. "I'm done waiting for you. You wanted to be a cultivator, I let you. But, now that something happened, I can't let you go anymore." He said and held Feng Mo's hand. "I will do anything just so I can have you. Momo – " he called, his voice became gentle. " – I just love you so much." He said and closed his eyes as he took Feng Mo's lips. Then, he held the back of Feng Mo's head and he pulled him into his embrace.

Feng Mo's eyes are wide in shock. Wu Bai… is kissing him! He thought. And it felt good – his eyes closed when he felt Wu Bai's lips moving against him. He groaned when he felt Wu Bai slipped his tongue inside his mouth and played with his tongue. Feng Mo felt his knees became weak and he grabbed onto Wu Bai's shoulders. He felt like he's gonna drown in this wave of pleasure.

Wu Bai immediately held him by the waist. His sleeve fluttered and the wind blew, extinguishing the fire in the candle. However, it won't extinguish the fire Wu Bai lit inside Feng Mo's body. He gently laid Feng Mo down the bed when they broke their kiss, a sliver of saliva between their lips. They caught their breath. Their eyes spoke, sparks are flying between them as they body shiver, wanting to touch each other. Feng Mo never knew what attraction was until Wu Bai made him feel it. He was always hot-headed. And so, he grabbed Wu Bai's clothes and pulled him down towards him. Then, he kissed him. Wu Bai will give him another wave of pleasure when Wu Bai took off his clothes. He responded by also taking Wu Bai's clothes off.

They can now freely show that they love each other, all these years they've been apart and missed each other.
