After showing everyone around the house, Fang informed the guests that Ren had no idea about his upcoming birthday party and requested them to keep it a secret.
The Dragon Queen already knew about this, and the other three were really amused by Fang's innocent thoughts.
"Are you sure that Chairman Ren doesn't already know about it?" Prince Uno asked with a frown. "He is a smart fellow, isn't he?"
"He is smart, but he doesn't know," Fang said.
"What Fang means to say is that Ren is utterly oblivious," Wolf said. "If it hadn't been for Fang taking action, the two of them would still have been pining after each other."
All the four new guests were stunned to hear that, even the Dragon Queen.
"Seriously?!" Princess Una asked, her purple eyes, the same as Fang's, widened in shock. "Our little brother Fang was the one who took the first step?"
Fang nodded shyly, remembering how he had grabbed Ren's collar and pulled his head down and kissed him the first time. Of course, he didn't want to recall what had immediately happened after that. But then again, all's well that ends well, isn't it?
"Also," Fang said quietly. "I've been a little tough on Ren historically for spending money, so it'll probably not cross his mind that me, of all people, would be willing to throw a grand party."
Pax and Wolf rolled their eyes. 'A little tough' had to be the understatement of the century.
The Dragon Queen frowned. "Are you short of money? Your father's estate and property is all yours, so I can transfer those to you immediately," she said. "There isn't much liquid cash, but there should be at least a couple of billion. I was thinking of handing those over to you later when the proper ceremony for your recognition as a prince of the Dragon Nation is done, but there's no harm in transferring those to you right away. The cash will hit your bank account by tomorrow morning."
Fang blinked. "My father – he left me money?" he asked in a whisper. Interestingly enough, he didn't feel even half as strongly as receiving money and property from his late father as he did when Ren offered him something. He wondered idly why that was, and why he was getting more and more into the mode of wanting to provide for Ren himself rather than the other way round. Of course, at the moment, it was still Ren providing for him, mostly, but still…that didn't stop Fang from wanting to provide for his man. He knew that Ren would roll his eyes if he got to know what Fang was thinking, but Fang couldn't help himself. His desire to monopolise Ren more and more for himself was getting stronger by the day, and sometimes, Fang was frightened the intensity of his own feelings.
But if his father had left him some money, Fang could give it all to Ren, couldn't he? That would feel great!
"Of course," the Dragon Queen said. "I'm sure your mother left you some property as well, but I don't know what the royals of the Valley Kingdom did with it."
Fang wasn't a greedy person, to be honest, and he knew what the state of the Valley Kingdom was at the moment. If what his mother had left for him was going to be used by the people of the Valley Kingdom to establish democracy in their country and the betterment of the people, he didn't mind at all. However, if it was with the deposed royals of the Valley Kingdom and they were using it to escape from justice and get away from the consequences of their actions, Fang wouldn't forgive them.
"We will look into it," Wolf said, shooting a meaningful glance at Fang.
Fang nodded, his face full of gratitude. "After Ren's party, though," he murmured. "Everything must be perfect for Ren's party!"
Everyone chuckled at that, and Princess Una thought that this long lost little brother of hers was rather cute in love.
"The gifts are here, by the way," Pax said. "And in addition to the luxury car and massage chairs from Miccan43, you also have a special massage chair from mysteriousa89 – that one is suitable for the babies."
Prince Uno's eyes widened in shock. "You managed to get stuff from Miccan43?!" he asked incredulously. "What all did you get?"
Fang smiled. "Massage chairs and a luxury car – all customised," he said. "Nothing less than the best for my Ren!"
"Fang actually managed to impress Miccan43 so much with the customisation designs that they gave him an extra massage chair," Pax said proudly.
Prince Uno was duly impressed. "I want one, too," he murmured. "Cousin Fang, you have to help me!"
Fang glanced at Pax for help, and the Dragon Queen swatted her son on the arm.
"Behave, Uno," she warned.
Prince Uno pouted like a small child. He looked at Fang pleadingly. "I will make a pair of the best matched couple outfits for you and Chairman Ren, Cousin Fang!" he said. "At least let me drive the luxury car once…!"
"If Ren agrees," Fang said. "It's his car, after all."
"He won't refuse if you ask him," Prince Uno said confidently. "I don't think that Chairman Ren would ever refuse you anything!"
Fang flushed. Was it really so apparent to everyone that Ren doted on him almost endlessly that even someone who was seeing them for the first time was able to figure it out?
"Don't tease our little brother, Uno," Princess Una scolded. "Also, I think that it is time for all of us to retire for the night. Little Brother Fang – you should also go and look after your Ren now. Also, let's meet up a bit early in the morning tomorrow? I'd like to catch up with you properly."
Fang nodded gratefully at his older sister.
"And don't worry, we won't spoil the surprise for your dear Chairman Ren," Prince Uno said with a smile.
"Thank you," Fang said with a soft smile. "Good night, then."
Fang had already showed them their guest bedrooms, so there was nothing more to worry about. The luggage had already arrived and Steward Paul had already arranged for those to be put into the guest rooms as well.
Pax and Wolf showed the four guests to their rooms after Fang went off.
Prince Uno, who was the last person being shown to his room by Pax, suddenly caught Pax's arm.
"You are the one who got Cousin Fang's stuff from Miccan43, aren't you?" he asked eagerly.
Pax raised an eyebrow. "What makes you think that?" he asked calmly, without any change in his expression.
Prince Uno chuckled. "You really are a Papa Bear, aren't you CEO Pax?" he asked with a big grin. "How sweet…"
Pax narrowed his eyes. "Well, then, Prince Uno, let this Papa Bear give you a piece of advice," he said seriously. "Don't mess with Ren and Fang. There are things about both of them that you neither know nor will understand even if you know, and I don't want you to trigger either of them by your thoughtless words and actions."
Prince Uno rolled his eyes. "Oh, come on, CEO Pax, there really is no need to be so hostile to me," he said with a smile. "Cousin Fang is our long lost little brother, after all – surely it is the privilege of an older family member to look after the younger ones' interests?"
Pax pursed his lips. "You have no idea what Fang and Ren have been through, Prince Uno," he said quietly. "However, if you wish your young cousin well, then don't challenge his relationship with Ren. That's all I can tell you."
Pax turned around and left, leaving Prince Uno gazing at his back with a complicated expression.
"You are a very interesting man, CEO Pax," Prince Uno murmured with a sigh and went into the guest room allocated to him.
Meanwhile, Fang had entered his bedroom and found Ren sleeping on the bed like a baby, and the four babies cuddled up with him.
A strong feeling, that Fang wasn't able to identify, surged up within him as he watched them – it was a mix of warmth, affection, possession and protectiveness. He stood by the bed and watched them for quite some time, until Smoke opened one golden eye sleepily and asked, "Papa…?"
Fang reached out and petted the soft and silky fur of the little pup – well, not so little any more, he thought. The two pups had started growing up, even though their growth was slower than non magical pups of their age. Snow, too, had grown a bit.
"Go back to sleep, little one," Fang whispered.
Smoke nodded sleepily and closed his eye again.
Fang quickly changed his clothes and got ready for bed. Then he climbed in next to Ren, taking care not to disturb the sleeping man or the four babies, and pulled Ren into his arms.
With his heart settled, Fang fell asleep.
