45 Chapter 45 - Red Haired Beauty

The next morning Wren woke up with a dull pain on the back of his neck. He rolled onto his back and glanced at the ceiling. 'Was yesterday a dream..... that person..... was he just a dream?'

He dazedly thought back to the night. That warm and wet feeling, those soft lips... that tongue.

Just a single thought made his heart race. 'That felt nice too...'

"Chirp!" a loud chirp woke him up from his thoughts.

Qu Wren rolled over and glanced at the moss nest next to him. The little bird was energetic, nuzzling against him. Its cute red eyes shimmered as it glanced up at him.

"Little one, you awoke early today.." he gently caressed its head, but he felt a different texture. He picked him up and placed him on his chest. He glanced at his neck to find a small feather. "Gasp, you have a feather!!!"

Feng Mian froze. 'Where where!!' he turned over trying to look behind his head, but it was physically not possible. So he sat down and scratched his neck. Hs talons could easily feel the soft feather. 'I'm not a bald phoenix after all!! Ah, I'm so happy!!!!' he jumped around chirping loudly.

Qu Wren sat up with a wide smile.

The fisherman ran I n hearing this commission. "sir... is everything okay?"

"Yes, everything is splendid. Why don't you ask you wife to come in as well,"

The whole family came in and the human woman was busy cooking porridge. The fisherman helped her whenever he could.

Wren watched them with a soft smile. 'It's nice to have a family yeahh.. they remind me so much of my mum and dad...'

He then glanced at the bed in which the kid was sleeping. He was still slightly snoring. 'He must have been too tired yesterday.'

He then thought of the certain red haired man. "Human, did someone come in yesterday?"

Feng Mian froze in his hands. 'Shit! He remembers!!!!'

"No one came in. What is it sir, was there any inconvenience?" the fisherman whispered to him with a confused look.

"No no, I had a good sleep~" Wren smirked at him, gently touching his lips. "Very nice indeed,"

After breakfast was cooked the little kid woke up with red eyed. He cautiously glanced at the bird in his hands and stiffened.

Wen gently patted his head. "Come eat your food, kid,"

He happily nodded at him. Even so his eyes always stayed on the bird.

Feng Mian just lifted his head with a condescending reaction.

The human kid put his tongue out playfully.

Feng snorted. 'Look at him, forgetting his fear. I guess kids are like that,'

They both had their breakfast soon.

"Sir, do you need help to get to the authorities? Shall I guide you?"

Wren nodded. "I fear I might get lost in this crowd of humans,"

"But before that, sir, you need to.... wash your hair..." he gestured to Wren's matted back mess. The herd he had applied was still in his hair, making it looked like matted hair.

Qu Wren nodded.

The human kid named Moroko sat up stiffly. "I'll come with you,"

"Son, you just got well yesterday." his father worriedly caressed his head.

"No, I want to learn to hold my breath," he whispered, throwing a glare at the bird.

Feng Mian's eye twitched. 'This kid still hasn't given up, huh! He doesn't even have hair down there, look at him claiming this oyster as his... competition my ass. I won't give up. I will learn to hold my breath too,'

The human brought him to a local waterhole. "Here, you can use this,"' he handed a small vessel.

Wren took it from him and bowed slightly.

The fisherman wanted to stay on guard but Wren was against it. Only Moroko stubbornly stayed behind with him.

"Son..."

"It's okay, I'll take care of him," Wren assured him only then did the fisherman leave.

Wren removed his shirt and tossed it on the lake's shores.

Feng Mian watched unblinking as his muscles contracted, his eight packs were glistening with sweat. He gulped.

'Did it just get hotter.....'

He subtly glanced back at the kid. Even he was watching him with his mouth wide.

'Where do you think you are looking at?' he jumped onto his shoulders and slapped his eyes close with his wing.

"Let me look." he pushed the bird off his shoulders but by then Wren already entered the water. "I missed it,"

Feng Mian chirped loudly. 'Stop looking!!! Stop it!!'

This was the only time he felt the inconvenience of his small body. 'I should get back my energy and become my handsome form soon. This can't go on...'

His vigilant eye forced on the little kid....

'It can't let this happen.'
