32 Ch. 31 - Officially dating

After their little make out in the river without any penetration of course, Jin and Tigress washed themselves in silence, however instead of washing himself, Jin was washing Tigress's body as his hands were snaking around her body, 'cleaning' every nook and cranny of her body. Even her armpits weren't spared, much to Tigress's embarrassment, however she didn't resist, in fact her paws were also slowly washing Jin's front, especially his abs.

A few minutes later, they finished washing each other. Jin was the first to get out of the river before wearing his outfit, Tigress soon followed up and also dressed. Unlike previously, she was no longer shy on showing her body to Jin, after all, he has already did 'things' on her body, so there's no point in hiding them from him anymore.

"Let's head back." Jin said while offering his hand to her.

Looking at his hand, Tigress smiled softly before holding his offered hand.

Soon, they both went out of the forest with their fingers intertwined.

Arriving back at the Jade Palace, they stumbled upon the Furious Six, who was chatting with each other.

Seeing them, Monkey was the first one to greet them.

"Hey guys! Uhhh, why're you holding each other's han-? Ow!" Monkey was still speaking when Crane slapped the back of his head.

"Seriously, Monkey. How come you still didn't notice their feelings to each other." Mantis slapped his forward and shook his head in disappointment.

"Hey! I know about that, I was just simply asking, you know?" Monkey quickly made up a reason, which none of them believed. After all, when it comes to lying, Monkey is the worst of them all. How did they know about it? Experience.

"Looks like I won't have to announce it to you all, huh? I guess there's only Master Shifu now." Jin scratched the back of his head as he smiled. He didn't think that their small interactions would made their friends assume that they have feelings for each other, which is not wrong as they really did.

"I approve. I have no right to voice any complains when it comes to your love life. I wish you the best of luck in your upcoming journey, Jin and Tigress." Speak of the devil, just as Jin mentioned Master Shifu, he appeared beside them while holding his usual cane that he got from Master Oogway before he went off to the spirit world.

"Thank you, master." Both Jin and Tigress bowed their heads in respect to Master Shifu, for receiving his blessings.

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe you both are going to have babies!" Po reacted differently though.

*Bam!*

"Po, you dummy! They just started dating, don't bring up making babies this soon!" Viper smacked the back of Po's head with her tail as she scolded him.

"I'm sorry! I think I just misheard." Po soon apologized and tried to make up a lie.

'He's just as bad as Monkey.' They all thought without any surprise.

"Anyways, I think forming bond with another is worth of a celebration. Today, all of us will celebrate in Mr. Ping's Noodle shop. Get prepared everyone." Master Shifu announced with a smile.

"Ooohh! I'll go first then and tell my dad!" Po excitedly said before running outside.

Master Shifu then turned his attention back to Jin and Tigress.

"So, when will I expect the wedding?"

"Eh?"

***

Running down the stairs, Po was humming to himself as he went down.

"Hm hmmm~"

Soon, he finished every step, making Po jump in victory.

"Hah Hah! I finally beat you, stairs!" Po smirked in victory as he pointed at the tall stairs, as if he was mocking it before proceeding to resume his journey back to the Noodle shop.

As he got there, he immediately saw his dad, preparing the Noodle shop as usual.

"Dad! You're not gonna believe this, but the entire Jade Palace masters will come and eat here! We should give it our best shot and make sure we cook the best noodles!" Po excitedly said as Mr. Ping just looked at him lovingly.

"Oh, look at you, Po. Finally taking care of our little shop. Don't you worry, with you here, we'll definitely give them a surprise! Come, Po. Help me set up the ingredients!" Mr. Ping said as he hugged Po, however it turns out that Mr. Ping has also sneakily placed the apron on Po as he grabbed him inside.

"But dad, I have to tell them firs-."

"No buts, you said you wanted the best noodles and I can't cook it without you." Mr. Ping replied before Po could even finish his sentence.

"Oh, man..." Dejectedly, Po started cutting up the ingredients as Mr. Ping prepared the wok.

***

"You know, I would've thought they'd react more violently or something. I didn't expect it to be this easy." Jin said while walking side by side with Tigress.

"That's because our interactions are too obvious that made them come up with the conclusion." Tigress said, while raising her head with her eyes closed, feeling the strong winds smash against her face.

Staring at her face, Jin can't believe that just a few minutes earlier, her face makes a lewd expression, which is very far from the calm expression she had now.

'Love truly work its wonders.' Jin said to himself as Crane flew over the air and landed in front of them.

"Po's back, he said that it's time for the celebration." Crane said as Jin and Tigress nodded their heads before following him.

They soon reunited with the rest and they continued their journey to Po's Noodle shop.

As they are walking, Po warned them for a bit.

"So, uh you guys know about my dad. He's a bit of a talkative person but he's good, don't worry. Though, he might be a bit-." Just when Po was speaking, they finally arrived at their destination, however something seems to be happening as a large crowd has gathered in front of the curtilage.

"Huh? What's going on, guys?" Po asked in confusion with raised eyebrows as he slight pushed everyone in the way until he finally gets inside where he saw a big guy, bigger than him, full of dumplings inside his mouth.

"Someone's about to beat your dumpling eating record!" A rabbit noticed him and answered while pointing at the giant guy.

The crowd were cheering for him as the big guy slowly stuffed all of the dumplings inside his mouth as bowls after bowls were stacked against each other, forming several towers made of bowls, which was amazingly balancing without falling.

"What?! Who's eating all my dumplings? I cooked them from the celebration!" Po was shocked as he squeezed himself through the crowd, so he could approach the big guy.

That's when he saw the big guy that looks very similar to him.

"100! 101! 102!" The kids were cheering for the big panda as he finally finished all the dumplings before standing up and jumping excitedly, his mouth is still full of dumplings.

Meanwhile, Po stared at the big panda in shocked, not expecting to see someone of his own kind. As far as he knows, Shen has massacred his kind, leaving no one by himself as the only panda.

"Wan horndred thurree!!" The big panda yelled with his mouth still full of dumplings.

"Ish dhat a new reschord?!" The big panda asked.

"....Who...are you?" Po asked with his mouth still open from the shock.

Even the Furious Six was shocked at seeing someone that looks similar to Po, but bigger than him. While Jin already knew about this as he watched the third movie of Kung Fu Panda.

"This means that Kai has returned?!" Jin muttered to himself in shock before gulping his saliva in fear. He's already strong by standards however if it comes with Kai, who's probably more stronger than Master Shifu and fought side by side with Master Oogway, Jin's confidence is very low if he faced him.

"...Aym Luie Shuan..." Li Shan introduced himself, however due to the dumplings in his mouth, it's very hard to understand what he said.

"What?"

*Gulp!*

Gulping down all of the dumplings in his mouth, Li Shan then introduced himself again but this time, more clear and properly.

"My name is Li Shan." Li Shan said while bringing down his hat from his head.

"I'm looking for my son." Li Shan continued.

*Gasp!*

Everyone in the vicinity gasped in shock, even Master Shifu wasn't spared as he also gasped in shock, including Mr. Ping.

"You're looking for your son?" Po said with a hint of pity in his tone.

"Yes. Many years ago."

"I lost my father." Po also expressed his situation which seems similar to Li Shen.

"I'm sorry." Li Shen said his condolences as Po thanked him.

"Well, goodluck to yo-." Li Shen said and was about to leave when Jin decided to interfere. He can't handle the two idiots who can't even recognized that the one they're looking for is already in front of them.

"Oh, for the sake of god! Po that's your dad and Li, that's your son!" Jin yelled at them while dragging Li Shen back to face Po and Po to face Li Shen

*Gasp!*

Being slapped by the realization, both father-son gasped in shock as Po excitedly said.

"F-father?!"

"Hah! What are you standing there for? Give your old man a hug!" Li Shen excitedly said as Po gasped more that almost as if he's out of breath.

The moment the two of them hugged each other, their bellies collided making a funny sound.

*Boing!!*

"Hahaha! You're my son! I thought I've lost you!" Li Shen remarked.

"I thought you were dead!"

***

As the two were having their reunion, the original Fuious Five including Master Shifu and Jin, all sighed and slapped their foreheads.

"Well, at least they're reun-." While Jin was speaking, the gongs suddenly started blaring, alarming everyone in the valley.

The gongs could only mean one thing.

The Valley is under attack!
