Let Me Ruffle Your Fur a Little

Chapter 36: do a magic trick for you

The next day, Mu Muer woke up earlier than Bai Yao for the first time.

After seeing the snow leopard next to him wake up, he first looked away shyly, then saw that the big cat didn't respond, then turned his eyes back, stared at him for a while, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his furry. round ears.

Mu Mu'er has endured it for a long time. After waking up, she has been staring at the cat's ears. She thinks it should be very soft, and she really wants to touch it.

But the big cat never woke up, and Mu Muer didn't dare to touch it casually, so she could only stare at Jie Jie.

Wronged, want to touch.

I also want to pluck and pluck to see if I can pluck a handful of hairs.

Bai Yao felt a little itchy from his touch, and instinctively shook his ears while he was half asleep and half awake. Mu Muer was startled by him, so she quickly withdrew her hand and looked at the big cat in front of her in fear, thinking that she had put him on the ground. It hurts.

He didn't touch enough, he still wants to touch.

But Bai Yao didn't know what was going on in his mind, he just thought the child was bored lying down. He stretched out on the bed, flicked his tail, and yawned lazily.

I slept a little hot last night, the fur on my body is too thick, it is not suitable for living in tropical areas and summer, and there is a boy who is as warm as a small stove in my arms, so I didn't sleep well.

He didn't change form, jumped off the bed lightly, and took two steps... But he was not used to such a long tail for a while, stepped on it with one paw, and let out a sigh of pain.

After the transformation, he would be naked. Bai Yao went into the closet in the shape of a snow leopard, and after transforming inside, he got dressed before coming out.

Mu Muer was still sitting on the bed, staring sleepily at the closet in a daze, maybe she was still a little sleepy, her eyes were not focused.

He watched Fluffy, who had slept in his arms all night, enter the closet, and Bai Yao came out, his eyes widened, as if he saw a walking scallop.

"Where's Mao, Fluffy?" Mu Muer rubbed her eyes slowly and sat up, and looked behind Bai Yao to see if Bai Yao had hidden the big cat behind her back.

"Why did Yaoyao hide in the closet..."

He was wearing Bai Yao's T-shirt, which was a bit too big, and his shoulders slid down a bit, revealing a delicate and slender collarbone. There were a few tufts of hair lying on the top of his head, which was a bit cute.

Bai Yao smiled and went over to tidy his clothes for him, and then rubbed his hair. Those tufts of hair curled up after being pressed down, and then rose up again after being pressed down, finally Bai Yao had no choice but to give up.

He glanced at Mu Muer's blank expression, and asked him with a faint smile, "What? Are you unhappy to see me?"

Mu Muer shook her head immediately when she heard it, trying to prove to Bai Yao that she was also happy to see him.

"Yaoyao is good, Yaoyao is also very good." He muttered, and he still didn't forget to be polite in the end, "Good morning, Yaoyao."

Bai Yao was amused by his rapid-fire way of speaking, the corners of his lips curled up. Mu Muer didn't laugh with him, but just sat quietly on the bed, not knowing what she was thinking.

The sea otters on the beach are still there, lazily basking in the sun on the sand, combing their hair that was drenched last night.

Mu Muer looked at them from the window, her expression darkened imperceptibly.

"It didn't float away last night." He said to himself, "It's still here."

"I don't want to drift away, but I will, far, far, far, far away."

"Swim by yourself, swim back, very tired."

Bai Yao discerned his meaning from his gibberish words. He gently squeezed Mu Muer's small minibus, raised his head so that he could look at him, and said softly, "Do you know that you should stay away from those sea otters in the future?"

"It's not just other sea otters. If someone is mean to you and says something bad, Mu'er should stay away and ignore him. Finally, if you want to go to the beach in the future, you must tell Yaoyao, do you understand?" ?”

Mu Mu'er nodded with a half understanding, and looked up at Bai Yao obediently.

"So cute."

It rained all night last night, but it cleared up a little today. According to the weather forecast, there will be light rain the day after tomorrow. Today is a rare day with sunshine. It rained yesterday, and there was still a bit of cool mist in the air. Raindrops were hanging on the green plants in the yard. The leaves became greener after being washed by the rain, and the whole town was filled with a little fragrance.

Maybe because of a little incident last night, Mu Muer was unhappy all morning, sitting on a small bench in the corner of the restaurant in a daze.

Bai Yao made him his favorite seafood fried rice, but even the delicious food couldn't make Mu Muer happy. He just finished eating slowly, one bite at a time, and put his head on the table in a daze.

Seeing him like this made Bai Yao feel uncomfortable. He cleaned up the kitchen, sat down beside Mu Muer, and asked him softly, "What is Muer looking at?"

Mu Mu'er didn't answer for a long time, so long that Bai Yao thought he wouldn't speak anymore, so he whispered: "...Xiao Dao."

Bai Yao followed his gaze and looked over. Today is sunny, there is no cloud in the sky, and the small island in the distance can be seen clearly.

Bai Yao has never been to that small island since he moved to the town. He only heard that when the weather is fine, if he camps on the top of the mountain at night, he can see the stars all over the sky, and it seems that he can touch them with his hand. Sleep among the stars.

He also heard from the local residents that the small island is suitable for going with couples, making wishes with the stars and the moon on the top of the mountain, and the two in love can live forever.

After Mu Mu'er finished speaking, she didn't move again, she put her chin on the back of her hand, her eyelids were half drooping, a little droopy.

After a long while, he let out a long breath, like a grandfather sighing, or like a little sea otter not finding his beloved shell.

Bai Yao squinted at him and frowned slightly.

Before this, he didn't know that sea otters could be so timid, so he couldn't help being scared at all.

He suddenly thought that if Mu Muer was frightened like this in a safe and warm house, before...he was bullied when he was living with sea otters in the sea, how could anyone protect him.

How much it hurts and scares him when he is bitten and scratched.

Mu Mu'er has a very good temper. In fact, after getting along with her for so long, Bai Yao understood that his fierceness at the beginning was just pretending. If he wasn't fierce, he wouldn't be able to survive in the sea.

The real Mu Muer is actually kind, gentle, kind-hearted, and obedient.

Every time he saw Grandpa Xu and Aunt Zhang across the street, he would politely and proactively say hello, following Bai Yao's example, asking the two old people if they were in good health and if they were going out for a walk.

Every time Bai Yao cooked a meal and called him to eat, Mu Muer would also thank him and give him a smile in return.

He is very obedient, he will definitely do whatever Bai Yao asks him to do, whether it is washing before going to bed, or not eating raw shellfish in human form, at most he will just ask why, and in the end he will follow Bai Yao did what he said.

At the same time, Mu Muer is so thin because he cannot compete with other sea otters in the sea.

He would steal the leftovers left by the customers in the store because he didn't know where his next meal would be and whether he would still have something to eat.

He had been hungry before, so when he saw food, his eyes were starry, and he wished he could go forward and collect all of it into his little pocket, hoarding it and eating it slowly.

Such a well-behaved boy has scars all over his body, trembling with fright because of the wind and rain.

Bai Yao's gaze fell on a tree in the corner of the yard, and he suddenly had an idea. He lightly poked Mu Muer's arm, and asked him, "Does Muer want to see Yaoyao perform a magic trick?"

Mu Muer didn't react immediately when she heard it, and didn't even look at him.

Bai Yao's heart ached, he couldn't help touching his face, and when Mu Mu'er looked up at him blankly, he pinched his ear again.

"Mu'er doesn't want to watch it? Yaoyao has never changed this magic trick for others. Mu'er will be the first person in the world to see it."

Hearing Bai Yao's words, Mu Mu'er finally perked up a bit, and let out a "hmm" sound from her nose.

In the backyard of the restaurant, there is a lush and green jatropha tree. This kind of tree is a bit strange. If you take off a leaf and carefully break off the leaf stem, there will be a gap where you can blow bubbles.

Bai Yao chose to plant this small tung tree at the beginning in order to coax the children. There are often children who can’t sit still among the guests in the restaurant, so if he is not busy, sometimes he will take the children to the backyard and teach them how to use it. Leaves blow bubbles.

He took Mu Muer by the hand and led him to the backyard, picked the biggest and greenest leaf from the tung tree, picked it off, broke off the root gently, and blew air out from the small opening.

The rainwater from last night was still hanging on the branch. When Bai Yao touched it, the whole tree was dripping with raindrops. Mu Muer was raising her head and looking up curiously, and a few drops of cool water dripped on her forehead. .

"Mu'er is watching, don't blink, Yaoyao is going to do magic tricks now."

Mu Muer obediently widened her eyes, staring closely at the leaves in Bai Yao's hands.

Following Bai Yao's breath, a string of bubbles floated out from the roots of the leaves and diffused in the air.

"Bubbles..." Mu Muer stared at the little bubbles slowly floating towards the sky, with a little surprise in her voice, and after she reacted, she confirmed loudly, "Bubbles!"

"En." Bai Yao responded patiently, "Bubble."

After blowing on a leaf once or twice, the bubbles stopped, so Bai Yao picked another leaf and continued blowing it to Mu Muer.

A slightly larger bubble floated above the tip of Mu Muer's nose, and he couldn't help shrinking back a bit, then reached out to touch it hesitantly, and when the bubble burst in the air, he smiled a little and his eyes bent a little.

"Muer also wants to do magic." Mu Muer watched Bai Yao blow three or four leaves, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. She gently pulled his arm and asked him to teach her, "Yaoyao teach."

Bai Yao helped him pick the biggest leaf, and taught him how to break off the root and how to blow bubbles.

Mu Muer played this game all afternoon. He wanted to see if he could fill the entire yard with bubbles, but many bubbles burst as soon as they came out, and more bubbles kept flying into the sky. Mu Muer told them to stop and they were not obedient at all.

Bai Yao stood aside and taught him patiently, telling him not to blow too hard, but to blow gently and slowly, so as to produce more bubbles.

The small tung tree planted in the yard was almost bald by Mu Muer, and there was a pile of corpses of leaves lying on the ground.

But Mu Mu'er was obviously much happier. He searched tirelessly for the biggest leaf on the tree, picked it off carefully, broke it off according to Bai Yao's method, blew air, and looked up at the bubbles all over the sky.

He didn't give up until he had blown all the leaves that he could reach. He still looked at the leaves on the tree that he couldn't reach.

Seeing his bright eyes, Bai Yao suddenly wanted to plant ten more tung tree trees, and leave the thousands of leaves on the trees to Mu Muer, so that he could fill the entire Qiaohai Town with bubbles.
