Two months later, Shan Ming came back on time. The task was completed smoothly and he received a large sum of money. After the balance of the amount was received, he went back to Colombia and brought the good news about Tiger Shark and Pell to Job and the others. Although Job was so jealous of Tiger Shark that he beat his chest and feet, everyone could see that he really wanted them to be happy.
The new ‘Peregrine Falcon’ is running very well. There are a dozen or so newcomers which were reliably recruited. They have gone on several missions and their reputation has not been tarnished. Shan Ming feels very relieved to hear this.
They all tried to retain Shan Ming, hoping that he would come back to them. But when Shan Ming considered many aspects, he still refused. He used to live a life filled with blood because he didn’t know how else to live. But now he has concerns. He is different from before. He already has hesitations about going to the battlefield. This is not a good thing for a mercenary. People who are afraid of death are easier to die instead. Rather than courting death with worries, it is better to recognise the reality and withdraw from the life of mercenaries.
Everyone expressed their understanding. So they didn’t want to hold him back anymore. During the time when Shan Ming stayed in Colombia, he helped them train recruits, impart experience, simulate battles, and provided a lot of help to newcomers. The military training provided by these veteran mercenaries for any organisation or group would normally require them to pay a large commission. But Shan Ming only wanted to make the ‘Peregrine Falcon’ strong.
Shan Ming drank a lot with them. They often staggered around drunk. Shan Ming faintly regained the heroic and calm feeling of the past. It made him feel full of strength every day if he stayed there.
But when the two-month agreement was approaching, he began to miss Shen Changze. Thinking of his warm palms, fiery kisses, and their countless times of intense sex, he knew that he was no longer the Shan Ming he was before. Shen Changze had changed him and given him a place he called ‘home’.
So he knew that when the time came, he should go home.
After bidding farewell to the familiar comrades and nostalgic base, he returned to Beijing. To his surprise, the young couple Huang Ying and Lily were the ones who came to pick him up. Shen Changze didn’t show up at all.
He was very surprised. When they were talking on the phone a few days ago, Shen Changze was very happy to know that he was coming back. He also said that he must pick him up at the airport. Why didn’t he come here today?
Huang Ying said in a somewhat secretive manner, “He…he has been busy these past few days.”
Shan Ming frowned and said, “What is he busy with? Did Tang Tingzhi get him to do some experiments again?”
Huang Ying nodded honestly, “Yeah, it’s…”
Huang Ying is a simple, honest and straightforward man. He is not good at lying. When Shan Ming saw his embarrassment, he knew that there must be something else hidden by him. He neither wanted to lie nor told the truth, so his answer was very vague.
Shan Ming glanced at Lily. Lily didn’t deal with the core secrets of the Dragon Blood Man so she was also at a loss. He felt that it was meaningless to ask. So he simply didn’t ask and just wanted to ask Shen Changze to come back to see him himself. He took out his mobile phone and planned to call him.
Huang Ying let out an ‘ah’ and said embarrassingly, “You won’t be able to get through.”
Shan Ming felt a little unhappy, “You can contact Tang Tingzhi and ask him to tell Shen Changze to come back to see me as soon as possible.”
“I understand. I understand. Major Shen knows you’re coming back. He’ll be back to see you after two days.”
Shan Ming pouted, “Where are you driving to? Isn’t this road leading to the suburbs?”
“Oh, yes. Major Shen bought a house and he wants me to take you there.”
Shan Ming was in a better mood when he heard this. He thought that this kid was really efficient in his work. They could move in after only two months.
On the drive there, Shan Ming and Lily chatted all along the way. He told Lily about the current situation of the ‘Peregrine Falcon’.
Huang Ying drove him to the suburbs, which is more than 40 minutes drive away from the urban area. There are more than a dozen mid-mountain villas there. They are also far apart from one another. Each house has the posture of a small hill. It was absolutely separated and private. So, it looks great.
Huang Ying sighed and said enviously, “It’s really profitable to be a mercenary.”
Lily curled her lips into a smile, “I can buy one. You’re the one who told me not to.”
Huang Ying blushed and said awkwardly, “How can I let a woman spend money for this.”
Seeing his serious look, Lily couldn’t help pinching his face, “You’re always so cute.”
Shan Ming followed Huang Ying in with his luggage. Huang Ying opened the door and the three of them walked in together.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful.” Lily couldn’t help admiring the villa.
This mid-mountain villa is divided into three floors. The main room has an area of about 1,000 square metres. In addition to the master bedroom and guest rooms, various function halls are available, especially the gym which occupies the entire basement of more than 300 square metres. The open-air swimming pool and hot spring pool are looking more luxurious and thoughtful than any resort villas. The three of them are very excited to see them.
Shan Ming nodded in admiration, “This kid has good taste and is fast at getting things done. Okay, I will settle down here from now on.” He threw the suitcase on the ground and lay down on the big leather sofa. He thought of making love with Shen Changze. What an exciting thing it would be for them to have sex here. The corners of Shen Changze’s mouth curled up into a smile thinking about it.
Lily went to him and said with a smile, “Shan, why are you smiling like that?”
Shan Ming grinned and said, “I want my son to come home quickly. What’s wrong with me smiling? Xiao Huang, you quickly call Shen Changze and tell him to come back quickly. I’m already back but he won’t go home, that motherfucker.”
Huang Ying said helplessly, “Okay. I’ll call the Colonel right away.”
The two left after hanging out for a while. Although Shan Ming was very satisfied with the house, he still felt that it was too empty when he thought that Shen Changze hadn’t come home yet. When he was trying to sleep at night, he tossed and turned. But he still couldn’t fall asleep. He originally thought that he would have sex with Shen Changze as soon as he got home, venting his loneliness for the past two months. But he didn’t expect it to be like this…
Shan Ming finally understood what it means to be burning with lust but had to sleep alone. He couldn’t help scolding Tang Tingzhi and Shen Changze in his heart. He only fell asleep in the late hours of the night.
As a result, on the second day, Shen Changze still didn’t come back as he expected. He endured the first day and the second day. But on the third day, when he still didn’t come back, he finally couldn’t take it anymore. He started calling Huang Ying and Ayer. He told them to get Shen Changze to come back to see him immediately.
Damn it. He really couldn’t figure it out. He came back on time due to the two-month agreement. But Shen Changze was the one who didn’t come home. What’s going on? Is Shen Changze looking for trouble? If he knew that this was going to happen, he might as well just stay in Columbia for a few more days.
That night, his anger could no longer be suppressed. Ayer called him back, saying that he would send Shen Changze back.
He didn’t realise that there was something wrong with what Ayer said. He didn’t worry at all about the reason why Shen Changze had to be ‘sent’ back. Anyway, he was gearing up and waiting for the bastard to come back to see him so that he could beat him up.
Two hours later, the doorbell rang. Shan Ming jumped up from the sofa and opened the door.
Ayer stood at the door, holding something in a blanket in his hand.
There was no Shen Changze.
Shan Ming poked his head out to have a look. There was really no Shen Changze.
He frowned and said, “What’s going on? Where is he?”
Ayer had a weird expression on his face. He said in a helpless tone, “He’s back home now.”
“Damn. Have you produced an invisible cloak like Harry Potter?”
Ayer sighed, “Don’t get angry…” After speaking, he flipped the blanket to show the thing he was holding in his hands.
Shan Ming looked down. There was a golden thing under the blanket. Looking carefully, there were also round and short horns, soft and smooth golden scales, little wings that clung to the body obediently, and a slender tail coiled around its waist. It was a completely shrunken version of a golden dragon. It looked to be only two to three years old. It was less than the length of his arm.
Shan Ming was dumbfounded. He asked in a trembling voice, “What is this?”
Ayer watched his expression carefully, “This is your son.”
Shan Ming cursed, “You fucking kidding me! Did you give birth to him?”
Ayer yelled strangely: “I told you not to get angry. He is really your son. This is Shen Changze.”
Shan Ming’s face turned pale.
Ayer took a step back, “Don’t be impulsive.” Seeing the murderous expression on Shan Ming’s face, he finally knew why Tang Tingzhi asked him to be the one to send Shen Changze back.
Shan Ming pointed at the soft, bare-bottomed baby dragon who was sleeping soundly, “You…this…What’s going on?”
“This…is Tang Tingzhi’s new experiment. Energy compression or something like that. I didn’t expect him to become like this all of a sudden as side effects. He is about… two years old now.”
Shan Ming kicked a big hole in the shoe cabinet by the door.
The little thing in Ayer’s arms opened his eyes suddenly. His eyes were full of surprise and confusion. He turned his head slowly. When he saw Shan Ming, his red eyes were stained with grievances. He then turned towards Shan Ming while stretching out his small arms like lotus roots. He called for him softly, “Baba.”
Shan Ming’s eyes turned dark. He almost fainted.
