(a/n: *Ehem*, Uhh.... I'll be gone for almost the entirety of next week due to exams.... This might be considered a black bellied act from me but all I can say is sorry for the cliff hanger.
^-^ Enjoy!)

*^*^*^*^*^*^*

"Dad! stop sleeping the entire day and come help me hang these to dry!"

". . . don't want to."

[Feng Mother: You're supposed to be the parent here, why are you letting the children do all the work? You jerk!]

Xin approached his lazy old man and picked him up into his arms. The body difference made it look strange but it didn't really matter as he was a strong beast.

"If you help. . . i'll let you stroke me. . ."

(A/n: no lewd intentions.)

His bribery made Ming Yu flinch in anticipation. This was the sibling's greatest advantage to lure this bum off the floor and do some work. This act of self sacrifice was a bit humiliating but it was all what they could trade for.

The process really is embarrassing though, especially for the stoic Xin. His expression doesn't change but his ears would tremble from the touch. If he was in his human form, they would've turn beet red.

Reluctant, Ming Yu came down from the comfort of his arms and tugged on Xin's sleeves.

"You promised. . ."

This cutesy interaction made Yue smile. He went and pulled Ming Yu by hand and gave him a basket full of his own clothes. The sight of it made it's owner frown.

Time was passing in a flash and it in just the few weeks the main protagonist's entourage would arrive.

Ming Yu was in pure bliss and even Admin became more understanding enjoying the idle days. The nagging continued though.

Maybe it was because there was nothing to do in this side that the admin would often disappear. It seemed that if not because of Ming Yu, the admin's work on the other side wouldn't pile up.

The Admin told him that there had been some unrest within the higher ups and his presence was needed to be there to serve as witness.

[Ming Yu: Admin. Fighting. . .]

This short power up coming from Ming Yu was enough to cheer the busy system up and would sneak out of work from time to time to check up on him.

This system is trying his best.

The twin siblings started learning more about relationships as their time was spent around Ming Yu. He really was surprised to know how clueless and animalistic these pair were as they were never around people.

One day this awkward conversation was held within the Ming household.

"Dad, why did you take us in as your children?" The curious Yue asked.

". . . because I like you both."

"But aren't children special only to those who were made by two people? We do not even share the same blood, then shouldn't you call us orphans?"

"Even a child born by another could be considered as one's own children. . . "

"I took you in, now you are my own, carrying the Ming name." These long conversations were really making his throat dry.

"Then how do you do it? making children?" Yue with bright shining golden eyes innocently asked with a sunny smile on his face.

Ming Yu froze.
