Song Yanqing took three days off, and today is the third day. He'll be going to the training base tomorrow, so he has nothing else to do. After lunch, Shang Shujue was a little sleepy, so he pulled him back to the bedroom for a nap.
As soon as Song Yanqing lay down, the Little Fox snuggled into his arms, wanting him to hold her and kiss her forehead before bed, saying it would help her sleep better.
Song Yanqing didn't argue with him or say anything. He just indulged him, kissed him on the forehead, wrapped him in the blanket, hugged him and patted his back. His movements were a little awkward and stiff, but fortunately he didn't make any mistakes.
Shang Shujue rested her head on his chest, her hand on his body, and quickly fell asleep to his stiff but gentle pats. Song Yanqing closed his eyes, intending to take a nap as well.
Before he could even drift off to sleep, his phone, which was on his bedside table, vibrated a few times. It was obvious someone was calling, but because his phone was on vibrate mode, the vibrations were so intense.
Song Yanqing opened his eyes and glanced at Shang Shujue, who was fast asleep in his arms. He then reached for his phone and was not surprised when he saw Zhou Lin's name.
He tried to get up, but realized that if he moved too much, the person in his arms would wake up. After thinking for a moment, he decided to lower the volume and answer the phone directly.
"Area, could you come to the base today? These past three days of training without you have been incredibly unruly; those brats are really out of control. I can't keep them in check, and Zheng Fengyue is about to be driven crazy by that bastard Lu Fengxing!"
"It's not that I'm not allowing you to take leave, it's just that the situation is urgent and I have no other choice. If you're really worried about the child at home, then bring him along."
Zhou Lin knew that Song Yanqing had asked for leave because his child was sick and there was no one to take care of him. He wasn't a cold-hearted person, but the base really couldn't function without Song Yanqing. After thinking about it, he came up with a compromise.
"We have plenty of empty rooms at the base. You can put him in your dormitory there. Judging from how you usually talk about him, I guess he's a well-behaved kid. If you tell him not to run around, he'll definitely listen to you."
"And Xiao Yu's hand is a bit more serious than before, making some training very difficult. After you come over, you'll need to train with the second team's mid laner, just in case. Although you've already played many practice matches together, more practice is always beneficial."
Zhou Lin didn't hear Song Yanqing's voice, so he had to lift Shen Zeyu's hand and bring up the matter of training with the second team in the middle lane. These were temporary issues for their base that needed to be sorted out, otherwise it would cause a lot of trouble later.
"Okay, I got it. I'll go later."
After listening to Zhou Lin's words, Song Yanqing responded softly and hung up the phone before Zhou Lin could react, then looked down at the person in his arms.
The Little Fox slept with rosy cheeks, and his bangs gently tilted to one side, partially obscuring his eyebrows and eyes. This added a touch of gentle warmth and tranquility to his otherwise cool and pure features, making him a truly pleasing sight.
Song Yanqing lowered his head and kissed the Little Fox's forehead again before putting down his phone. He then hugged the little fox contentedly and closed his eyes. Even in his sleep, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.
Song Yanqing woke up amidst a heavy sense of oppression. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shang Shujue lying on top of him, her slender, white fingers patting his chest, her cheeks puffed out, looking very angry.
"What are you doing?" Song Yanqing grasped Shang Shujue's hand, looking at him with a mixture of helplessness and amusement, his voice slightly hoarse as he spoke, "Trying to cause trouble as soon as you wake up? Hmm?"
"You're so annoying! You stole my cake and sausages in my dream, leaving me none! I'm so mad!"
Upon hearing Song Yanqing's voice, Shang Shujue couldn't help but tear her hand away in a wronged manner, raising her hand to pinch his cheek, her eyes red-rimmed, as if having her delicious food stolen was the biggest thing in the world.
"..." Song Yanqing's lips twitched slightly. He was speechless for a while, then pulled the Little Fox's paw down and held it again. He leaned over and kissed the fox's forehead and lips, feeling helpless but indulgent.
Don't be angry, I'll take you shopping in a bit.
The Little Fox blinked twice, her eyelashes fluttering. It took her a while to react. Instantly, her eyes widened, and she pounced on him, hugging him tightly, her voice filled with excitement.
"Really? You really want to take me out?"
Song Yanqing was somewhat stunned by Shang Shujue's excitement and agitation. He then began to reflect on the situation. During this period, Shang Shujue had been staying at home and had never suggested going out. He had always assumed that the other party did not like going out.
But it seems that's not the case now. The Little Fox still likes to go out, but because he knows his job is special, he usually stays at home and doesn't ask to go out.
"Okay, I'll take you out more often from now on. Now wash up and put on your favorite clothes. We'll leave when you're ready."
"Okay! I'll go right away--"
Song Yanqing ruffled Shang Shujue's hair and made a solemn promise in his ear. Shang Shujue sensed something from his tone, but he was too happy at the moment to think about it. He just jumped up like a cannonball and went to look at his pretty clothes.
Watching his hurried and flustered figure, Song Yanqing couldn't help but smile slightly. It was clear that this Little Fox had experienced very little of the worldly affairs. Although he was much older than him, he still had an innocent and naive appearance, which was really cute.
Song Yanqing didn't stay in bed for long. After getting out of bed, he went to wash up. He also needed to change his clothes. The Little Fox was like a little furnace, and it was especially hot to sleep with it. He sweated a lot more than usual.
After they had both washed up and gotten ready, Song Yanqing found two masks, put one on Shang Shujue first, and then put one on himself. With everything ready, they set off.
