455 7.79 – [EXTRA CH.] – Stinky Bun’s Talent – War Of The Wickeds

Ying Xiong was in the middle of a very important task- he was trying to retrieve a shower head from the bottom of the bathtub.

Since mommy was holding daddy down, Ying Xiong could only do it on his own, “Mommy, mommy?” Where is the handle? he asked, his hand searching a completely wrong place.

“A little bit on the right,” he heard mommy’s voice. Ying Xiong’s hand was getting tired and his eyes were getting heavy, but he was determined to succeed. Just as he was about to give up, his fingers finally brushed against the cool metal.

“It’s okay, mommy’s got you,” said Bing Shi, handling Stinky Bun the shower head, which her husband hid behind his back.

Ying Xiong smiled and grabbed the handle to rinse his hair, not thinking through about how mommy was able to do it with her occupied hands, “Daddy, daddy.” Stinky Bun can wash his own hair, he doesn’t need daddy anymore.

Bing Shi sat on the edge of the tub, “How is Stinky Bun going to take revenge?” she asked, curious if he understood such a complicated word. As a god of misfortune, people would always try to seal him off, so it was no wonder Stinky Bun hated doors. Her husband knew it too but decided to put aside Ying Xiong’s complicated past and treat him like his son instead.

The last time his son went through a ‘revenge phase’, Stinky Bun was so enraged, he used his powers to make all the doors in his space open and slam shut, over and over again. The sound was deafening and the doors would begin to crack.

“Mommy?” Revenge? Stinky Bun almost forgot about his revenge, “Mommy, mommy!” Ying Xiong fidgeted hesitantly before he pointed the shower head at his daddy and pressed the button to make the water flow out. The toddler’s face suddenly lit up with happiness despite having his eyes closed shut.

Nobody could accuse Stinky Bun of doing bad things again if he later pretended to have his eyes closed and wasn’t able to see what he was doing.

.....

There was one thing Stinky Bun forgot to think through, and that was his mommy, who wasn’t supposed to be there at first. A joyous sound of laughter escaped his lips when he imagined the water spraying over his daddy’s face.

Bing Shi closed her eyes and let the water run down her face, “...”

|”His talent in making stupid choices is definitely inherited from his cute daddy.”|

Xuan Mu leaned over to steal a small kiss, doing it exactly like his son...with his eyes closed so, he could pretend later that his lips just felt like landing on that exact same spot as her cheek. His son’s logic was beyond his comprehension, so he had to give it a try to see if it works.

|At least he’s got mommy’s talent to save the day with silly pranks.|

The boy enjoyed a good laugh before wiping his face with his hand. With a final triumphant grin, Ying Xiong opened his eyes, holding the shower head up in the air, victorious, “Daddy, daddy!” Take that!

However, Ying Xiong soon found himself in a predicament. The water that should be attacking daddy was being shot in mommy’s direction instead. It was a close call; daddy’s quick thinking and reflexes saved mommy from getting soaked like a wet mouse.

Xuan Mu used his hand as a protective screen between his wife and the stream of water. He would have used his back, but his legs were currently being held down by his son.

Ying Xiong quickly stopped pressing the shower button and began to cry. It was clear that he was in real trouble this time. He tried to think of a way to get out of the situation, but nothing came to mind. He was about to give up when he heard daddy laughing. It was a light, tinkling laugh that made Ying Xiong’s heart soar. He realized that daddy wasn’t really mad at him, but the same couldn’t be said about mommy.

Mommy, on the other hand, was not so easily amused. She gave Ying Xiong a stern look and yelled out loud, “Mommy is very angry at Stinky Bun right now!”

Ying Xiong jumped from his seat and began to rub daddy’s hair together with a little hiccup, “Mommy, mommy.” Stinky Bun is sorry. Stinky Bun didn’t mean to attack mommy. Realizing there was no foam, he picked up the shampoo and tilted it over daddy’s head, wanting to pour out the whole content.

Bing Shi stopped the boy with her next words, “If you waste all shampoo what is mommy going to use later?” causing the boy to cry out in panic and hide into his daddy chest.

Xuan Mu was now covered in shampoo and was laughing hysterically, the little boy’s tears having no effect on him, “Serves you right, buddy.”

Daddy’s laughter irked the heck out of the little boy, but it was the only thing that was easing the heavy mood in the air. The boy suddenly wasn’t keen on being with mommy anymore, and would rather goof around with the laughing daddy.

Bing Shi checked her son’s state; there was not too much stress, enough for the boy to deal with it by himself. She then turned to her husband. Gently, she began to massage his hands and wrists, trying to loosen the tension. She could feel the knots begin to release under her touch and saw the tension begin to leave his face, “My saviour,” her words caused the boy to feel even more guilty.

|”You forgot to turn off your survival mode.”|

|What are you talking about?|

He knew what she meant. He was so focused on keeping everyone alive that he had forgotten to live. But he also knew that there was no way out. He was trapped. If he didn’t protect them, who would? He had already taken enough rest and was ready to start fresh. He really did, so why did she keep being so stubborn?

|”Are you looking down on my powers?”|

|Of course not,| he replied. |I’m just saying that you should be prepared for the worst.|
