"When do you plan to tell Fang about all this?" the Dragon Queen asked Ren.
Ren frowned. "I'm not sure," he murmured. "Should we wait until we know more…? I would like to know how he ended up in the Orchid Orphanage, and how the seventh prince of the Valley Kingdom and the current empress of the Valley Kingdom found him. And, if they had always known that Fang was in the Orchid Orphanage – then why did they leave him alive? And when they found him a few years ago – why did they still leave him alive?"
The Dragon Queen sighed. "You have no idea how vicious that woman is, Chairman Ren," she said quietly. "And if her son takes after her, then he should be same. And if he takes after his father, then he is a spineless creature that simply listens to his mother. It is, however, possible, that this time, the seventh prince actually did turn up to pursue Fang. He may not be aware of the true identity of Fang."
Ren tapped his chin thoughtfully. "Even if the seventh prince is not aware that Fang is his cousin – his mother would be. It doesn't make sense that they left him alive," he said.
"That woman – she would take great joy in humiliating the son of her enemies," the Dragon Queen said, clenching her fists. "Additionally, she would probably think that now that she had located the boy, and he was living such a wretched life, she could grab hold of him any time and she would bring him out at an appropriate moment to blackmail me again."
Ren raised an eyebrow. "And then I took Fang away, and more than that, the last two years have not been too great for the Valley Kingdom, either. And with the worldwide clean up, they probably thought it best not to get involved," he murmured.
Then he frowned again. "But if that is the case, then why would they make a move now?" he asked.
"It is possible that they want to blackmail you as well as I by using Fang's past as a bargaining chip," the Dragon Queen replied. "However, it is also possible that they want to do something in the Valley Kingdom and want to use Fang as a scapegoat. After all, Fang's claim to the throne of the Valley Kingdom is second only to his older sister, who is known to the world as my daughter and my heir."
Ren fell silent. The whole thing was very suspicious, if he looked at it from a logical point of view. It didn't make sense at all – which meant that there were still quite a few things that they were missing out on here. So, they needed to be very, very careful, and they needed to protect Fang very fiercely.
Ren would never let Fang fall into the hands of those people again. And if any of them dared to lay a finger on Fang again, Ren would not only cut off their hands, but he would also make them unable to live and unable to die, and for the rest of their lives, they would live in eternal regret of having dared to cast a malicious eye on Fang, Ren thought savagely. He didn't know if it was the villainous tendencies of the original Ren-the-villain, or his own absolute determination to protect Fang, no matter what the cost, that was making him to fierce in this moment. Ren felt like a proper villain, and he was completely unapologetic about it. He would protect his Fang at all costs, even if he had to destroy an entire country to do that, he thought to himself. Nothing mattered more than Fang in this world, and Ren would rather see the world burn than let anyone bring the slightest harm to his precious Fang ever again!
The Dragon Queen could see the fierce determination in Ren's eyes, and she smiled to herself. While her nephew had suffered for a number of years, he had now found himself a good man who was completely devoted to him, and who would not shy away from getting his hands dirty to protect the boy. Perhaps it was the reward that the heavens had granted Fang for his sufferings – the pure love and devotion from Ren.
"You should tell him," the Dragon Queen said quietly. "I would like to meet my nephew as his aunt, and I would also like to introduce my children to him. Fang should now know that he has some family."
Ren sighed and nodded. "It would be good for him to get to know his real relatives," he murmured wistfully, suddenly missing his own family back in the other world. Only Ren knew how much he would love to take Fang back to his original world and introduce him to his own family there. He had no doubt that his parents and his siblings would adore Fang to bits. They had always been worried about Ren's lack of a dating life – and the fact that he had not only found himself a boyfriend, but he had actually gotten engaged properly and they were going to get married and they were already raising four babies together – his family would be utterly delighted. Ren also wondered idly what had happened to the two children of his in the other world. They would have been taken out of the incubators by now – and perhaps they were growing up nicely with his parents and his siblings…
It was a good thing that Ren had not met his children in the other world. Given how strongly he felt about his children in this world – it would have been unbearable for him to leave them behind if he had actually gotten to know them, he thought. Perhaps his brother or his sister would have adopted the two children as their own, just like the Dragon Queen had done for Fang's older sister. That would be better. The children would grow up with proper parents, in that case.
Yes, it would probably be good for Fang to meet his family. At least this side of the family that was nice to him.
"Do your children know about Fang?" Ren asked quietly.
The Dragon Queen sighed. "They know that I have found their little cousin, the son of my late brother, who I have been looking for a very long time, and who was supposedly in the clutches of the Valley Kingdom," she said. "But they don't know that my daughter is the actual big sister of Fang and not merely his cousin – and I would like to keep it that way, please."
Ren nodded. "I will let Fang know the truth, but it does seem safer for your children to remain as they are. It's not like they would love Fang any less if he is introduced as their cousin – they don't know each other anyway, so it will have to be first impressions in that case. I'm not worried about that at all – everyone knows that my Fang is so charming that he could win anyone's hearts, so they will take him as their adorable younger brother anyway," he remarked, his golden eyes shining with pride.
The Dragon Queen burst out laughing. "You are the adorable one at times, Chairman Ren – ah, no, I shall start calling you Ren now, since you are engaged to my nephew and you will soon become my nephew in law," she said.
Ren flushed, but didn't object.
"I will be visiting Cosmopolis next week for some work," the Dragon Queen told Ren, not mentioning that the 'work' was actually Ren's surprise birthday party being thrown by Fang. "I will look you up, then, and I will bring both my children to greet you at the time."
Ren saw no reason to refuse, and he agreed happily. He would have to speak to Fang as soon as he got home, and he hoped that the fact that Fang still had some relatives remaining in this world who had been searching for him and who cared for him – that would compensate for the fact that there were people on the other side of his family who were trying to use him as a tool for their own nefarious purposes.
"And about the Valley Kingdom…" the Dragon Queen murmured. "What do you want to do, Ren? What if Fang wants to go back to the country of his mother and take over the throne? What would you do then?"
Ren smiled slightly. "If Fang wants to be the emperor of the Valley Kingdom, then I will do whatever it takes to make him the emperor of the Valley Kingdom," he said simply. "And if he wants to burn down the Valley Kingdom or its royal family, then I will help him do that as well.. In any case, the current emperor, the current empress and the seventh prince of the Valley Kingdom have a few surprises coming their way."
