Healing the Omega, I Became the Whole Clan's Darling

Wen Yuzhi had never realized before that properly calculating his allowance was actually such a troublesome thing.

His little treasury was divided into several different sources of income.

One portion came from his status as royal-blood. From the very first day he arrived at the Saint Clan, he had automatically inherited half of Salileno’s assets. Inside were enormous quantities of jewelry and antiques, the accumulated foundation passed down through generations of Salileno.

Another portion was the allowance Dad gave him.

Mansendis could be said to be the richest sovereign in the entire interstellar world. His personal desires were extremely low. Not a single one of the luxurious hobbies royal-bloods were supposed to indulge in interested him, while the years he had spent conquering battlefields had only caused the assets under his name to multiply again and again.

However, he himself had almost nowhere to spend money.

Instead, during the process of raising the cub, he discovered the joy of spending money.

Wen Yuzhi practically received all sorts of gifts and rewards from Dad every single day. The warehouses belonging to him had also been continuously expanded. Otherwise, they would not even have enough space to store all the things Mansendis gave him.

A father’s love sometimes truly felt overwhelmingly heavy (ZhiZhi sighing.jpg).

As for the remaining portion, the composition became much more complicated.

There were gifts from the various Saint Clan families, things sent by the Pat race, and also continuous income generated under his name.

That’s right.

Under his name.

Wen Yuzhi only learned at this point that on Dark Tower Star, many parks and public buildings had constructed beast-form statues of him.

Sleeping cubs, eating cubs, running cubs...

All sorts of Wen Yuzhi’s images from the videos released by the palace had appeared as sculptures.

And admission to view these sculptures required separate payment.

Even so, Saint Clan visitors going to see the sculptures every day still came in endless streams.

The Saint Clan had no real entertainment hobbies. They were not particularly interested in such things. At most, they just fought in training rooms.

Thus, the sculptures modeled after little highness almost exploded in popularity the moment they appeared.

Fighting?

What was so fun about fighting?!

Better to go see adorable little highness. Buying a ticket even came with a random little highness poster!

And as for the plush beast cubs people could touch, it was said the tactile simulation accuracy had reached ninety percent. Just the waiting list reservations alone had already been booked out three years into the future.

The money earned from all this also directly entered Wen Yuzhi’s little treasury.

When Wen Yuzhi first heard this news, he had felt somewhat embarrassed.

After all, having his image turned into sculptures for everyone to visit and admire...

But after learning that all the Saint Clan members who visited unanimously gave positive reviews and even hoped the sculptures could remain permanently, the cub awkwardly announced that the sculptures should not be removed after all.

“Leave them!” Wen “extremely magnanimous” Zhi waved his hand and declared.

Mond smiled and nodded. “Understood.”

But magnanimous or not, looking at the mountain of lists spread across the table, Wen Yuzhi still could not help sighing.

“There’s so much......”

Why did he have this much allowance?

Wen Yuzhi thought this happily and painfully at the same time.

As for this question, Mond could answer it very clearly—

It was all because their little highness lived too “frugally.”

The previous royal-bloods had all lived extravagantly beyond belief.

Take Tacia, for example. She liked roses. During her reign, the palace had been filled with enormous fields of roses. These roses were extremely rare and famous for the golden flame-like patterns on their petals.

A single flower could sell for the price of gemstones, yet Tacia had planted them throughout the palace. The moment even the slightest sign of wilting appeared, the female officials would immediately replace them with fresh ones, ensuring the queen’s garden always remained vivid and eternally blooming.

And beyond that, Tacia also loved constructing all sorts of magnificent buildings. Most of the large structures currently on Dark Tower Star had been redesigned and rebuilt after Tacia ascended the throne, purely to suit the queen’s aesthetic preferences.

The spending habits of the other royal-bloods were no less excessive either. Every single one was more wasteful than the last.

Compared to them, Mansendis practically lived an “ascetic” life.

And as Mansendis’s child, Wen Yuzhi also was not as extravagant as the other royal-bloods.

He had no particularly expensive expenses.

Food and lodging were all provided within the palace. As for clothing, whatever Mond gave him was what Wen Yuzhi wore.

The only time he had really spent money had been when he bought gifts for everyone else, while he himself had merely eaten two extra slices of cake.

Little highness currently possessed more wealth than all the previous royal-bloods combined, yet his spending speed was nowhere near theirs.

With things like this, how could the allowance piled there not become increasingly larger over time?

The more Wen Yuzhi thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.

He had so much money lying unused. Wasn’t that just wasteful?

He had to put it to use!

Thinking this, Wen Yuzhi instantly became energized again.

However, if he handled everything by himself, it seemed a little too overwhelming...

If only someone could help him at a time like this.

And just as Wen Yuzhi was thinking this, suddenly, one of his royal guards walked over.

“Little highness, a human says he wishes to see you.”

A human...?

Wen Yuzhi froze for a moment. Then he reacted, and his eyes instantly lit up.

............

King of Spades had not expected Xi Heyan to actually plan on visiting the Saint Clan.

When he first heard the news, the way he looked at Xi Heyan was filled with shock and admiration.

During the Saint Clan’s stay on Blue Luster Star, not a single race had truly dared pay them a personal visit.

Aside from Raymond An.

But he had no choice. In order to display sincerity while inviting the Saint Clan to attend the conference, he had been forced to personally visit them. Even then, he had only stayed inside for several minutes before coming back out.

Even merfolk queen Haisena had only negotiated trade matters with Alvin online.

After all, during the livestream, her younger sister had acted far too recklessly and flirted with someone’s child right in front of the child’s father.

After considering things carefully, Haisena still decided that using a safer method to communicate with the Saint Clan was the wiser option.

Yet this place everyone avoided like the plague—

King of Spades had actually heard from Xi Heyan’s own mouth that he planned to visit the Saint Clan palace.

King of Spades already did not know whether to praise his courage or say he had been dazzled stupid by beauty.

That’s right.

Beauty.

Under the livestream cameras, Xi Heyan’s little thoughts toward Wen Yuzhi had been obvious to practically anyone with eyes.

Even piloting a mech, he had acted like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

At the end, he had even directly reached out his hand toward him.

Not to mention how the two of them had spent half the journey sticking together and holding hands.

Based on King of Spades’s understanding of Xi Heyan over the past six months, if the man did not have feelings in his heart, how could he [N O V E L I G H T] possibly do something so close to publicly declaring ownership in front of everyone?

And now, seeing Xi Heyan leaving while carrying the little cakes he had stayed up all night making, plus that bouquet of fresh flowers in his arms, along with a pile of gifts obviously intended for the other party’s family...

“Well now. Planning for the poor son-in-law to visit his future father-in-law?”

King of Spades raised a brow.

“Oh, no wait. You don’t even have a title yet. Let me guess—you haven’t even managed to win him over yet, have you?”

Xi Heyan ignored him.

He was still adjusting his collar.

Like King of Spades, the Damian family had also been deeply shocked upon learning that Xi Heyan intended to visit the Saint Clan.

But fortunately, as an old aristocratic family of the Empire with royal blood flowing through their ancestry, what great storms had the Damian family not seen before?

Was it not simply paying a visit to the supposedly brutal and violent Saint Clan while attempting to pursue the little highness whom the tyrant supposedly treasured more than life itself?

They...

They were absolutely still terrified, but there was nothing they could do. The Damian family already felt deeply guilty toward Xi Heyan, and they knew they had no position to stop him.

Thus, they could only prepare from other directions.

For example, clothing, hairstyle, and gifts.

Early in the morning, Xi Heyan had been surrounded by the styling team sent by the Damian family and forced to sit there for two or three hours.

According to the Damian family—

Since he was already losing badly in terms of status, then at the very least, these ceremonial aspects absolutely had to be done perfectly.

They had to ensure that from the very first meeting, little highness and his family would leave with a good impression of him.

And the final result truly made people’s eyes light up.

Xi Heyan’s features had originally inherited the Damian family’s deeply carved brows and high nose bridge. After careful styling, his hair now made those already sharp and distinct features appear even more noble and cold.

And within those deep eyes, the dark blue spreading through his pupils resembled the quiet arc-light hidden in the depths of the ocean. The moment he lifted his gaze, there seemed to be an indescribable sense of obscure intimacy within it.

Wen Yuzhi had just stepped onto the staircase and looked downward when his gaze happened to meet Xi Heyan’s upward glance.

The young man froze briefly.

Even Wen Yuzhi himself did not know why he suddenly lost focus at that moment.

Perhaps because Xi Heyan had worn that disguised appearance for so long recently that suddenly returning to his original face made Wen Yuzhi somewhat unaccustomed to it.

Or perhaps because the other party, after being so carefully dressed up, looked even more handsome and striking.

The black suit tightly wrapped around the man’s body, while the flower bouquet still carrying dewdrops cleverly softened the overly cold sharpness around Xi Heyan, making him resemble an elegant and refined noble gentleman.

A noble gentleman completely unlike those shallow, vulgar aristocrats.

Rather, he looked like some decorated noble who had just returned from slaughtering enemies on the battlefield, standing straight-backed and imposing.

To put it simply...

Xi Heyan somehow managed to make even a suit feel like a military uniform.

Wen Yuzhi blinked.

He first stared at Xi Heyan’s face for quite a while before finally lowering his gaze toward the bouquet.

“Is this... for me?”

It was not that Wen Yuzhi was narcissistic.

It was simply that within this palace, aside from him, there did not seem to be anyone else Xi Heyan could possibly be giving flowers to.

The flower stems were delicate. Xi Heyan had carefully carried them the entire way here to avoid damaging them.

Now that he had finally seen him, he pressed his lips together, somewhat nervous and somewhat embarrassed as he nodded.

“Mm. Since this is my first time visiting, I wasn’t sure what would be best to bring, so I chose flowers and...”

As Xi Heyan spoke, he lifted the box in his hand.

Through the transparent container, one could see an exquisitely designed vanilla ice cream cake inside.

“I improved the flavor a little. This time it should taste better than the last one.”

Before coming here, Xi Heyan had actually rehearsed countless times in his head how he should greet the young man and what he should say upon seeing him.

Yet now that he was truly standing here, everything he had rehearsed vanished under the pressure of nervousness.

The moment he met those exceptionally bright and delighted eyes, Xi Heyan’s mind had practically gone blank.

The words he spoke now had come entirely from instinct while he remained frozen in a daze.

Wen Yuzhi, however, was extremely happy.

Flowers and cake were not things he had never received before.

Back when he was in school, Alphas from neighboring academies had practically shown up every day carrying flowers to confess to him.

But Wen Yuzhi had never accepted a single one.

He liked flowers.

He just did not like those Alphas.

Yet facing the flowers Xi Heyan gave him, Wen Yuzhi accepted them with obvious delight.

“Thank you.”

The beautiful bouquet was immediately placed into a lovely vase by the young man.

Wen Yuzhi set it atop the coffee table in the reception room.

This way, he would be able to see it every day whenever he came and went.

Seeing the flowers he gave being treated so carefully—even knowing the young man was simply acting out of politeness—Xi Heyan still felt an almost floating sensation in that instant.

However, before he could fully immerse himself in that feeling, he saw the young man before him suddenly seem to remember something.

“Ah! Right! Come with me!”

Wen Yuzhi proactively grabbed Xi Heyan’s hand and led him upstairs.

Xi Heyan was still somewhat confused.

Until Wen Yuzhi brought him into a room whose layout, decorations, and design style all radiated warmth and brightness.

The room was very large, with many separate functional rooms outside.

Yet Wen Yuzhi did not stop. He directly led Xi Heyan deeper inside.

And the moment Xi Heyan saw that large bed covered in plush dolls, his mind completely froze.

This place...

Was this his bedroom?

At that moment, every surrounding sound seemed to gradually fade away.

Xi Heyan could only hear the chaotic pounding of his own heartbeat.

Even his nervous emotions exposed themselves through the palms of their clasped hands.

His fingertips trembled slightly.

His breathing also became unstable.

Yet Wen Yuzhi did not notice Xi Heyan’s abnormal state at all.

He pulled him down to sit upon the soft carpet.

The place Xi Heyan sat was clearly where the young man himself had previously been sitting.

The moment he sat down, Xi Heyan could distinctly smell a faint fragrance.

It came from Wen Yuzhi himself and had lingered there.

And now, those scents stained Xi Heyan’s body as well, instantly making his entire body grow stiff.

Xi Heyan watched Wen Yuzhi sit down across from him.

This was not like that café from before.

There was no small table separating them anymore. They sat directly face-to-face.

Distance-wise, they were extremely close.

Close enough that Xi Heyan could even clearly see the young man’s long eyelashes fluttering gently like butterfly wings.

Those pale-gold pupils reflected only his figure so clearly.

This feeling...

It was as though the other party’s eyes contained only you alone.

Xi Heyan’s heart tightened.

“Um...”

Wen Yuzhi also looked somewhat nervous.

His long lashes fluttered rapidly, while an ambiguous, beautiful flush spread across his snow-white cheeks.

Probably because he was inside his own residence, Wen Yuzhi today was not wearing those gorgeous, noble ceremonial clothes that carried a sense of distance.

He wore only a loose, thin white sleep robe.

Silver-white hair spilled down along the bit of exposed skin at his neck. The young man at this moment looked unbelievably soft and harmless.

And with his lips pressed together slightly, perhaps because what he was about to say felt difficult to ask, Wen Yuzhi took a deep breath.

Under Xi Heyan’s gaze, the exquisitely beautiful young man before him, cheeks flushed red, looked at him with those pale-gold eyes more beautiful than gemstones, eyes filled almost entirely with anticipation.

“Um...”

Wen Yuzhi carefully opened his mouth.

“Could I trouble you to help me organize this data?”

Xi Heyan, whose heart had already risen to his throat: “......”

“?!!!”
