Early the next morning, Bai Yao was woken up by something on his body.

He opened his eyes and saw that a small octopus was tightly wrapped around his body, and his arms and legs were all on his body, as if he was used as a pillow. This kind of situation is not uncommon. There are always three or four mornings in a week when he wakes up like this, and Bai Yao is quite used to it.

After lying on his back for a few seconds, Bai Yao gradually felt that two things were not quite right.

He slowly lifted the quilt covering his body and glanced down.

Well, the little sea otter didn't wear pants.

Mu Mu'er never likes to wear pajama pants when she sleeps. She likes to wear only a loose T-shirt and boxer briefs all over her body, revealing two straight white bare legs dangling on the bed.

After all, the two of them sleep on the same bed every day, and Bai Yao has never been straight in his life. Watching these two bare legs dangling in front of his eyes every day, it is easy to get sick after a long time.

But no matter how many times Bai Yao asked him to put on a pair of pants before going to bed, Mu Muer just didn't like it. He would quietly wait for Bai Yao to fall asleep and then take off the pajama pants that he put on a second ago. This time it was thrown directly at Bai Yao's face.

If Bai Yao persisted, Mu Mu'er would directly transform into a sea otter lying on the bed, with the words in her eyes: You won't be perverted enough to let a sea otter wear pants, right?

As time passed, Bai Yao had no choice but to give up. Anyway, he can't care about sleeping naked, there is nothing wrong with the two men after all.

Something was pressing on the abdomen, Bai Yao looked down slightly, only to see Mu Mu'er's legs resting on his waist, and the calves were just under the lower abdomen.

Only then did he realize what the second thing that wasn't quite right was.

A normal physiological response of a grown man.

Mu Muer showed no signs of waking up, her head was buried next to Bai Yao's shoulder, when she turned over, her calf unconsciously rubbed there, and her arms hugged his waist tighter.

Bai Yao couldn't bear it, his whole body seemed to be on fire, and he felt his head was burning. Mu Mu'er was still sleeping soundly, her breath fell on the side of his neck, soft and warm.

He moved down the bed little by little, for fear of waking Mu Muer up if his movements were a little too big. After finally getting out of bed, Bai Yao went into the bathroom, closed the door tightly behind him, leaned against the wall and let out a sigh of relief.

It took nearly five minutes of cold water to calm down his dry body. Bai Yao wrapped a towel around his waist, stood in front of the sink, and looked at himself in the mirror in a daze.

normal response.

A normal reaction of an adult man.

Hmm, normal physiological response.

Bai Yao: "Fuck."

When he returned to the bedroom, Mu Muer was still awake. He slept on his back, occupying the half of the bed that was vacated by Bai Yao. A thin boy occupied the entire huge double bed, leaving no room for it.

The little thing can really sleep, and Bai Yao didn't wake up with such a big movement in the bathroom, so he probably can continue to sleep when the sky falls.

Bai Yao originally wanted to go downstairs after changing his clothes, but when he saw the boy on the bed, he walked over in a mysterious way, sat down by the bed, and carefully looked at his sleeping appearance.

The neckline of the T-shirt on his body is a bit too big, and the collarbone socket that is sunken in a little bit can be seen. After taking care of him for so long, he is still thin, his face seems to be a bit rounder, but his chin is still as delicate and small as when he first met him.

Bai Yao moved his eyes slightly upwards, and landed on Mu Muer's slightly parted lips, which softened when he saw it, and he couldn't help but think of Mu Muer's chin that had kissed him when he was at the beach.

That move was so unexpected, he was not prepared at all, and now he can't remember how he felt at that time.

The boy's lips seemed to be softer than they looked, and the color was beautiful, Bai Yao couldn't help reaching out to touch them.

next time we kiss...

Bai Yao suddenly realized what he was thinking, and retracted his fingers as if electrocuted.

People are attracted by beautiful things, and Mu Muer's looks are almost impeccably good-looking. He just grew up in Bai Yao's aesthetics, if he met him on the street, Bai Yao would look at him more often.

Bai Yao thanked Mu Yi countless times for mentioning Mu Muer's sexual orientation. If he liked a girl, Bai Yao didn't know if he could be selfless enough to see another person fall in love with him.

Because no one would dislike Mu Muer, Bai Yao had no doubts about this.

Bai Yao has never loved anyone before, so he doesn't know what it's like to have feelings for a person, but he is thinking that he seems to love him, and it doesn't seem to matter whether Mu Muer understands this love.

It doesn't matter if he can't say "I love you", Bai Yao can say that is enough.

He is willing to say "I love you" twice, and keep saying it until the day Mu Muer learns it.

Mu Muer's eyelashes are longer and slightly curled, and when her eyes are closed, they rest on her face obediently.

Bai Yao wanted to touch it to see if it felt the same as the sparrow's feathers as he imagined. After thinking about it, he did so, raised his hand and fiddled with Mu Muer's eyelashes with his fingertips, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

Sleeping soundly and being teased by someone, Mu Muer snorted a little, subconsciously raised her hand and slapped her up.

Bai Yao reacted quickly and shrank back, leaving Mu Mu'er in vain.

This doesn't wake you up, Mu Muer rubbed against the pillow, apparently intending to continue sleeping.

Bai Yao was amused in his heart, pinched the tip of Mu Muer's nose awkwardly, put his lips close to his ears, and whispered, "Where is the little bear spending the winter?"

The boy was half asleep and half awake by his noise, his eyes opened a crack, glanced at Bai Yao and closed them again, muttered a few words, turned over and continued to sleep.

Bai Yao moved closer and put his ear to Mu Mu'er's lips before he heard him mumbling something.

"Big mosquitoes...why do they still bite people?"

The next day, Bai Yao made seafood risotto. He picked a lot of peaches from Grandpa Xu's house last time, and he had long thought of bringing them something in return.

After giving it to Grandpa Xu, there was a lot more. He put the fried rice in a crisper and brought it to Jing Xiaoqing.

When he arrived, Bai Yao rang the doorbell three times but no one answered. He suddenly felt uneasy, and before he had time to think about it, the door finally opened.

Jing Xiaoqing was packing up her things upstairs, but she didn't hear the bell, and vaguely felt that someone came down from downstairs. She plans to go to the hospital tomorrow, and there are still a few days before the labor period, but she feels that she should live closer to the hospital to rest assured.

"I didn't intend to tell you. When I bring a baby back, I'll surprise you." Jing Xiaoqing took the fresh-keeping box from Bai Yao's hand, and let him in sideways.

Although she said that, Bai Yao immediately understood what she meant.

"Are you planning to go alone?" Bai Yao said with worry in his voice, "How did you manage to get so many things?"

There are large and small bags piled up on the ground at the door, and it is difficult for non-pregnant people to take them, let alone pregnant women.

"It's okay. I arranged for a driver. He will pick me up tomorrow, so I don't have to take it myself."

Bai Yao didn't speak.

Jing Xiaoqing had helped him a lot when he first moved to Qiaohai Town. Without her, Bai Yao's restaurant would have been built a year later.

After much deliberation, he finally smiled and said, "I'll go with you, if there's anything I can do to help."

After returning from Jing Xiaoqing's house, Bai Yao thought for a long time whether to take Mu Muer with him or let him stay at home. He was worried that he would be too busy to take care of him. No matter what, it would be safer to stay at home.

After all, in a place like a hospital, Bai Yao didn't want Mu Mu'er to stay in it too much.

But Mu Mu'er still couldn't stay at home alone for a long time. Although he had learned how to cook a few simple dishes with Bai Yao, Bai Yao didn't trust him to use such dangerous utensils as a kitchen knife and stove by himself.

Aunt Zhang was the only one who lived very close and knew her well. If it weren't for the lack of choices, Bai Yao would not bother others, let alone the two elderly people he should help take care of.

Before going home, Bai Yao made a detour to Grandpa Xu's house. Grandpa Xu was not there, Aunt Zhang opened the door. Bai Yao explained the reason for his visit, but before he could finish his sentence, Aunt Zhang immediately agreed, telling him to go to work at ease and definitely take care of Mu Mu'er.

It took less than two days in total, and Aunt Zhang was helping to take care of it, so there couldn't be any problems.

Bai Yao was relieved a little, but when he was about to walk to the door, he began to worry about how to tell Mu Muer, and he had already arrived home before he had figured out the name.

Mu Muer sat on the small bench by the door and waited for Bai Yao to come back. He holds the sea otter doll that Mu Yi gave him in his hand, with a calm expression. But the moment his eyes fell on Bai Yao, it was like lighting up a firefly lamp, his eyes were full of light.

He jumped up to open the door for Bai Yao, took his hand and walked into the house, rambling about what he did just now.

Bai Yao smiled and listened to him quietly, waited patiently for him to finish, took a deep breath, and discussed with him softly: "Yaoyao has something to do, he has to leave for a few days, can Mu'er stay by herself for two nights?"

Unexpectedly, Mu Mu'er didn't look too sad, he could tell from Bai Yao's tone that Bai Yao left because of something urgent. He didn't speak, but the excitement faded a little.

From the slightest look in Mu Muer's eyes, Bai Yao could see what was going on in his heart. He raised his hand and pinched the boy's face, coaxing with some distress: "Don't be afraid."

Mu Muer shook her head, and asked cautiously, "Why did you leave..."

Bai Yao asked him softly, "Does Mu'er remember sister?"

"Sister Xiaoqing."

"Well, sister Xiaoqing is going to have a baby, and Yaoyao wants to help send her to the city."

Hearing what he said, Mu Muer's eyes drooped slightly, and she thought for a long time before speaking. He asked: "Doesn't sister have a Yaoyao?"

Bai Yao thought about this sentence before he understood what he meant, raised his hand to touch the top of Mu Muer's head, and said seriously: "Well, would Muer lend Yaoyao to sister Xiaoqing for two days?"

Mu Muer showed a tangled expression, turned around to look at the trees in the yard, thought for a long time, and kept silent.

Bai Yao waited quietly, took his hand and held it in his own.

After two minutes, Mu Muer finally nodded firmly.

"Then you have to tell my sister to return Yaoyao to Mu'er." His voice became smaller and smaller, "Muer's Yaoyao is taken away by others, and Muer will be gone..."

"Don't take it away."

Bai Yao was so distressed that he raised his hand and pinched Mu Muer's chin. After he turned his gaze to himself, he looked into his eyes and asked: "If someone knocks on the door, Muer don't open it, do you know? There is something for sure." Go to the opposite side to find Aunt Zhang and ask her to help."

Bai Yao had given Aunt Zhang a set of house keys very early on. If he came back, he would open the door and go in by himself, so if there was a knock on the door, it must be a stranger.

The possibility of something happening is almost impossible, but it is not impossible, Bai Yao is still worried. But he couldn't let Jing Xiaoqing go to the hospital alone, as a friend, he had to help.

Mu Muer suddenly thought of something, frowned a little, and whispered aggrievedly: "But at night, there is no Yaoyao to hold hands when I sleep at night."

Bai Yao leaned in front of Mu Mu'er, slowly approached him, whispered something in his ear, then moved back, looking at the little pink on the tip of the boy's ear.

Mu Muer thought for a while, finally nodded with firm eyes, and said a little louder: "Muer wait, Muer will obediently wait for Yaoyao to come back."

"Come back soon..."

This is the first time we have separated from Bai Yao after meeting him. Mu Muer has missed Bai Yao since she woke up the next morning. She missed him countless times in a day. She missed him when she saw the small tung tree in the yard and ate alone. I missed him when I was there, and I still thought of Bai Yao when Aunt Zhang came to accompany him.

Probably this place made him feel at ease and familiar, but it was only because of Bai Yao, now that Bai Yao is not at home, he always feels that the room is a little empty.

But Mu Mu'er knew that Bai Yao was going to take care of Xiaoqing's sister. He was not at home, and he was not afraid or sad. He just missed him, wanted to hug him, and wanted to eat and sleep together.

Now that Bai Yao is not around, he just happens to be able to steal snacks openly, which is an opportunity he has never had before.

Before going to bed at night, she was about to enter the house. Mu Muer took two steps towards the bedroom, turned back halfway, turned around and entered the unused guest bedroom, went straight to the floor lamp in the corner, reached out and took down a bag Cucumber Chips.

He stuffed almost every hiding place in Bai Yao's house with small shells and snacks, and he didn't know if the sea otter had the potential to be a hamster. Mu Mu'er was very good at hiding things, so Bai Yao had never found them.

If they were found, Mu Mu'er would pretend not to know, and if not, she would plant the blame on Bai Yao, saying that Yao Yao hid it.

He was able to speak with confidence only because he knew in his heart that no matter what, Bai Yao would not be really angry with him, and he had the right to act coquettishly, because he was Bai Yao's little sea otter.

Mu Muer happily entered the room with her potato chips in her arms, threw herself on the bed as usual, lay on the bed, swayed her legs upright, clicked on the chat page of WeChat and Bai Yao, and made a video call .

He clicked the button, opened the bag of potato chips by the way, took out a handful and stuffed it into his mouth.

After waiting for three seconds, Bai Yao picked it up.

Mu Mu'er never expected that Bai Yao would pick it up so quickly, her mouth was stuffed with a handful of potato chips, her cheeks were bulging like a little hamster, her eyes were wide open, and it took her a long time to react.

"Yaoyao!" Mu Muer smiled at Bai Yao on the phone screen, "Yaoyao, what are you doing?"

I haven't seen Bai Yao all day, and if I don't see him again, I almost forget what Bai Yao looks like.

"Waiting for Mu'er to call, what is Mu'er doing?" Bai Yao lazily leaned on the back of the chair, and smiled back at Mu Muer. He was still in the hospital, and the obstetrics and gynecology department was on the second floor. He sat on a bench in the lobby on the first floor to rest, and wanted to wait for Jing Xiaoqing's examination results before returning to the hotel.

It was so late, there were almost no people in the hospital corridor, and it was a little quiet.

Mu Mu'er put her face almost entirely on the phone, as if she could lean against Bai Yao in this way, "Mu'er is thinking about Yaoyao."

His expression was obedient, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curled down, which was a bit flattering.

Bai Yao really wanted to touch his head.

"Don't put your phone so close, it's not good for your eyes." Seeing Mu Muer's face almost pressed against the camera, Bai Yao couldn't help but make a sound.

The front-facing camera flickered and captured an emerald green bag on the bed next to Mu Muer.

"What's next to it?" Bai Yao asked alertly.

Mu Muer pushed the bag of potato chips aside, and said aggrievedly: "What, it's nothing..."

Bai Yao was amused in his heart, pretending he didn't see it, "Don't eat before going to bed, if you have already eaten, remember to brush your teeth."

"No, Muer hasn't eaten yet." Mu Muer covered the potato chips under the quilt, "This is for Yaoyao, put it in the quilt to keep Wu warm."

With a little smile on his lips, Bai Yao listened to his nonsense, but didn't point it out. After hearing Mu Muer's faltering explanation, he said, "Then you must finish eating."

"Well, don't eat, Mu'er won't eat."

Mu Mu'er and Bai Yao explained in detail what he did all day, even when he found a pine cone and left it to a little squirrel passing by.

While talking, he forgot what he just said in a blink of an eye, pulled the snack bag over, took out potato chips and put them in his mouth.

At the end of his speech, he yawned and announced in a low voice, "Mu'er is sleepy, Yaoyao won't leave."

The two sentences had nothing to do with each other, but Bai Yao immediately understood.

He nodded and said softly, "Yaoyao is here, good night, Mu'er."

The day before Bai Yao left, he was worried that Mu Mu'er would not be able to sleep if no one was holding hands at night, so he told him to call himself after going to bed at night, and holding the phone was equivalent to holding hands.

Mu Muer lay down on the bed and covered herself with the quilt, tightly holding the phone in her hand, and closed her eyes to sleep. After lying down for a while, he secretly opened one eye. In the video, Bai Yao propped his forehead with one hand, and leaned against the back of the chair with his eyes closed.

Taking advantage of Bai Yao's inattention, he quietly looked at it for a long time, just like sleeping together.

Bai Yao waited until Mu Mu'er fell asleep for a long time before hanging up the phone.

He hung up the phone, sat on the chair and laughed silently for a long time.

Last week, he happened to go to the guest bedroom to clean up. Before he could reach the floor lamp, he saw a bag of emerald green cucumber chips on top of it.

Mu Mu'er is shorter than him, and his eyes are under the lampshade of the floor lamp. He thought he was very smart, hiding the snacks on the lampshade so that Bai Yao would not be able to see them, but with Bai Yao's height, the first thing he saw when he entered the room was Small snacks that he carefully hides.

He left Mu Muer for a day, but felt that ten and a half days had passed. Ever since he finished his work, he began to think about when Mu Muer would call. He wanted to take the initiative to call, but he was afraid that Mu Muer would call. Well, I will miss him when I see him.

He didn't feel relieved until he finally connected to the video.

Another day later, Bai Yao came back today, Mu Muer counted the time, got up in the morning and finished eating, moved a small bench and obediently waited at the upstairs door. He wanted to pounce on Bai Yao the moment he opened the door, asking for a hug.

Usually, Mu Mu'er always has things to do, and he never feels bored when he is busy, but today he doesn't want to do anything, he just wants to stay at the door and wait for Bai Yao's voice to open the door.

He waited patiently for more than an hour and Bai Yao still didn't come back. Mu Muer was a little anxious to wait, so she couldn't help but took out her phone and sent Bai Yao an emoji.

As soon as the message was sent, Mu Mu'er received a reply from Bai Yao before she even put down her phone. He clicked on it to read it.

[Just got off the train, Mu'er waited another 20 minutes. 】

Mu Muer nodded obediently at the phone, thinking that Bai Yao couldn't see it, so she said "Okay!" to it again.
