Five years later, in the office of the Summit Technology.

After finishing a promotional poster, Duan Xu was finally able to free his hands. He stood up, stretched, and revealed a small section of his fair waist and abdomen.

"Tsk tsk, team leader, take it easy. If President Shen sees us, we're in trouble again," a female beta in the same team reminded Duan Xu.

The others didn't know what had happened, but they could guess what was going on from those words, so they consciously avoided looking up.

"Sigh, I've never seen such possessiveness from our CEO Shen before."

"Of course! Last time, the team leader tripped over a chair, and I helped him up, even through his clothes. As a result, General Manager Shen made me run around delivering documents all afternoon!"

"I didn't do anything this time, and I didn't see anything."

"Oh no, I saw it. Will President Shen send someone to assassinate me?"

Duan Xu: "... It's not that bad."

Duan Xu, coughed lightly, and said, "Alphas don't like their omegas smelling like other people. He's not a bad person."

"Then he's also the alpha with the strongest sense of territory!"

Duan Xu glanced at the office door. "Don't worry, he won't be coming right now."

"The team leader is the best!"

"Tomorrow is New Year's Day, so you should leave work early once you're done," Duan Xu, skipping over the topic.

"Alright! I have one last picture!"

"I only have three left! Someone please help me!"

"You'd better save yourself, I have plans with my boyfriend tonight."

Duan Xu couldn't help but smile as he listened to their conversation.

Before he knew it, he and Shen Yanlang had been married for five years, and Xue Jingshu and the others had also gotten married.

The company has already secured a place in the industry and is showing signs of becoming a leader. During this time, they have developed many games that gamers love, and the company's size has already increased more than tenfold.

With his qualifications, he could actually be the head of the publicity department, but he also has a son to take care of and is too busy to handle everything, so being a team leader is enough.

Yes, Duan Xu and Shen Yanlang have a son. A month after being fully marked, Duan Xu was found to be pregnant with a male omega, who is four years old this year.

Duan Xu glanced at the time; it was four o'clock. He stood up and said to everyone, "I'm going to pick up my child first. You can leave when you're done."

"Goodbye, team leader! Happy New Year!"

Happy New Year!

Duan Xu took the elevator to the parking lot, texting Shen Yanlang as he went: [I'm going to pick up An'an first. Come home early to pick us up later.]

Shen Yanlang is in a meeting and hasn't returned yet.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, I found my car and got into the back seat.

After giving birth, Duan Xu got a driver's license and could drive, but Shen Yanlang wouldn't let him drive and insisted on assigning him a driver instead.

The driver arrived at Golden Deer Kindergarten. "Mr. Duan, we've arrived."

"Okay." Duan Xu responded and got out of the car, walking to the designated pick-up point for the children, where there were already many children and parents.

Duan Xu spotted his son, Shen An, at a glance and quickly walked over, "An'an."

"Daddy." The voice was soft and sweet, very cute.

Shen An's appearance is similar to Duan Xu's, with clear almond-shaped eyes. The rest of his features are like Shen Yanlang's. Even at only four years old, it is already clear that he will definitely be a great beauty when he grows up.

"Hey!" Duan Xu picked up Duan Xu and walked towards the car. "Was An'an good today?"

Shen An said, enunciating each word clearly, "An'an was very well-behaved today."

Duan Xu smiled and kissed Shen An's soft, delicate cheek. "Our An'an is so cute."

Shen An touched his cheek where he had been kissed. Although he was happy, he was also troubled. "Daddy, you kissed me again. Daddy will be unhappy."

Duan Xu: "..."

Since being fully marked, Shen Yanlang's possessiveness has grown day by day, as can be seen from his group members and Shen An.

"Then keep it a secret, we won't tell him, so he won't know," Duan Xu coaxed.

Shen An nodded, "I'll listen to Daddy."

"Good girl." Duan Xu smiled again and carried Shen An the car.

Duan Xu and Shen An returned to Zhen Court first. It was only around five o'clock, and Duan Xu played with Shen An for a while.

Shen Yanlang's message came around six o'clock: [Yeah, I'm on my way back.]

Duan Xu: [Okay.]

Duan Xu placed his packed backpack on the living room sofa, and they could set off once Shen Yanlang returned.

Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and tonight we'll be celebrating the New Year together. I've made plans with Zhou Zhou and the others to go to a hot spring resort in the suburbs to celebrate the New Year.

Twenty minutes later, Shen Yanlang returned. "Xuxu."

"Yan-ge." Duan Xu got up and walked over. "Are you tired today? Should we have the driver take us there?"

"Hmm." Shen Yanlang was wearing a suit with an overcoat over it. After five years of experience, he had become more mature and charming.

He embraced Duan Xu and kissed him directly.

Duan Xu grunted and pushed him away, "An'an is watching!"

Shen Yanlang then looked up and saw Shen An sitting on the sofa. Shen An was staring at them curiously, but when she saw Shen Yanlang looking over, she quickly covered her eyes, "An'an didn't see anything!"

Duan Xu: "..."

"Hehe..." Shen Yanlang chuckled, charmed by Shen An's cuteness. "Yes, Daddy believes you. Go change your clothes with Daddy first."

"Oh," Shen An responded, only lowering her hand after hearing Shen Yanlang and Duan Xu enter the bedroom and close the door.

In the bedroom, Duan Xu couldn't help but slap Shen Yanlang, "I've already told you not to kiss in front of the children, it's not a good influence."

Shen Yanlang took his hand, kissed it, and said, "I haven't kissed you all day, I couldn't resist."

I still want to have sex with you, but I don't have time anymore.

Duan Xu rolled his eyes at him, annoyed. "Go change your clothes, we've been waiting for you!"

"Okay." Shen Yanlang was in a good mood. He had finished dealing with company matters ahead of schedule, and could spend the three-day New Year's Duan Xu. How could he not be happy?

After changing his clothes, Shen Yanlang carried Shen An in one arm and held Duan Xu's hand with the other as they left the house.

He was indeed tired today, and he didn't even have time to eat lunch with Duan Xu. He wanted to spend more time with Duan Xu, so he asked the driver to drive while the family sat in the back seat.

The journey was congested, and what should have been an hour and a half took more than two hours. Duan Xu and the others even took a nap before arriving.

The resort is owned by the Shen Family. They have specially reserved rooms, each with its own room for rest and sleep, as well as a large private room with two hot spring baths.

Duan Xu other two went to their rest room to put their things away before heading to the large private room.

"Hey, Xuxu's here!" Zhou Zhou waved to them from the sofa.

Du Shen stood up and stretched out his hand, "Come, come, let me hug my little nephew."

Shen Yanlang was happy to be held, so he handed Shen An to him and pulled Duan Xu to sit down on the sofa.

Du Shen carried Shen An back to sit next to Ye Xinyu. "Sisi, this is your An'an. Say hello to him."

The child in Ye Xinyu's arms was their child, a female omega who looked just like Ye Xinyu, like a delicate porcelain doll. "An'an."

"Oh my, these two are so well-behaved!" Ye Xinyu looked at the one in her arms, then at the one in Du Shen's arms.

Zhou Zhou took a sip of his milk tea, then walked over. "An'an, why didn't you greet Uncle Zhou?"

"Uncle Zhou," Shen An greeted him obediently, also calling out to Xiao Xu, "Uncle Xiao."

"Mm." Xiao Xu nodded with a smile.

Zhou Zhou is a beta and a man, so it's unlikely he'll have children. Besides, neither Zhou Zhou nor Xiao Xu want to raise children themselves.

They chatted for a while before Xue Jingshu and Han Xi took their child to the large private room.

Xue Jingshu and Han Xi's child is a male alpha, named Xue Han.

Eight adults and three children were all present. They ate dinner first, and then went for a walk to digest their food.

They didn't return to the large private room to play cards until around 10:00 PM, and it wasn't until about 11:30 PM that they went back to their rooms to change clothes and then soaked in the hot spring in the large private room.

There were two hot spring baths in the private room. The three alphas plus Xiao Xu soaked in one, and the other was for the rest of the people.

However, children can only soak for a short time; they can't stand soaking for too long.

So when we first started bathing the children, we would let them play on the carpet first.

"Time flies, it's been five years since we graduated," Zhou Zhou remarked.

Ye Xinyu nodded, took the drink and took a sip, "Looking back on university now, it feels like it was just yesterday."

Duan Xu smiled and said, "Do you still remember when we went hiking, camping, and had hot pot?"

"Yeah!" Zhou Zhou pulled further into the water. "He said he didn't want to climb mountains for two years, but it's been almost ten years and he hasn't climbed a mountain since."

Han Xi sat there, relaxed, and said casually, "You can go during the Spring Festival holiday. There's a fitness trail there, and the mountain isn't high."

"We'll see how it goes then," Zhou Zhou said lazily. "Since I started working, I haven't really wanted to travel far."

Duan Xu agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "Staying home during rest time is the most comfortable."

"We still have to take care of the child!" Ye Xinyu sighed.

Duan Xu glanced at the time. "It's about time. I'll go get An'an."

"Hey, wait for me, I'll come with you." Ye Xinyu stood up, and Han Xi followed closely behind.

Upon seeing this, Shen Yanlang got up, and then Xue Jingshu and Du Shen also got up, leaving only Zhou Zhou and Xiao Xu in the hot spring pool.

The two looked at each other from a distance, and Zhou Zhou blew Xiao Xu a kiss, which Xiao Xu returned with a smile.

"You two are like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, do you want me to build a bridge for you?" Du Shen walked over carrying Du Siyu and couldn't help but complain when he saw them.

Zhou Zhou laughed shamelessly, "Where are the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl? It's the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl!"

Du Shen: "..."

Xue Jingshu hummed in agreement, a meaningful look in his eyes, "The Cowherd?"

Zhou Zhou coughed lightly, "Of course not that gigolo, but only my Xu-ge's gigolo."

"Haha..." Ye Xinyu laughed loudly behind Du Shen, and even went down into the hot spring with him. "Then we won't be called Cowherd anymore."

Seeing this, Xiao Xu felt quite embarrassed, so he simply got up and went to Zhou Zhou's hot spring.

So Shen Yanlang and Duan Xu held An'an on Zhou Zhou's side, while Xue Jingshu and Han Xi held Xue Han on Du Shen's side at the Zhou Zhou.

"There's only one minute left until midnight!" Duan Xu reminded everyone after seeing the time.

Zhou Zhou put down the pastries, stared at the countdown, and said, "Get ready!"

With ten seconds left, everyone counted down together, even the three little children joined in.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven... three, two, one!"

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone clapped spontaneously, and it sounded quite lively.

Shen Yanlang turned to look at Duan Xu, his eyes smiling, "Xuxu, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year." Duan Xu glanced at Shen An, then whispered in Shen Yanlang's other ear, "Husband."

After getting married, Shen Yanlang made Duan Xu call him "husband." Duan Xu was too embarrassed to call him that in public, so he could only do so when they were being affectionate, when they were alone, or when they were whispering to each other.

Shen Yanlang's eyes darkened as he stared at Duan Xu.

[Go back and moan in bed.]

Duan Xu gave a soft "hmm," not daring to look at Shen An, afraid that Shen An would see his embarrassed side.

Shen An had already seen it. He tilted his head and blinked, thinking to himself, "Sigh! Dad and Daddy are whispering again!"

The End.
