MTL - Let Me Ruffle Your Fur a Little-Chapter 53 he likes boys
Bai Yao took Mu Mu'er's hand upstairs and saw that he was not in the mood to take a bath, so he wiped his body with a wet towel and coaxed him to brush his teeth.
He stuffed Mu Mu'er into the bed, but he didn't go to bed, and after carefully tucking the corners of the quilt, he turned around and left.
The big lights in the bedroom were turned off, and only a small night light was left on the bedside, illuminating a small corner of the dark room.
"Yaoyao, don't go." Mu Mu'er's eyes were a little wet, and she didn't cry, but there was some water vapor in her eye sockets, and she was slightly red.
No one could refuse such a crying request from a soft and well-behaved boy. Bai Yao sat down by the bed and stroked the back of Mu Muer's hand soothingly.
Mu Mu'er could feel that Bai Yao was in a bad mood today, and he knew it had something to do with him, but he didn't understand the specific reason.
He cautiously stretched out his hand to hold Bai Yao, raised his eyelids to see that he had no objection, and then he was a little relieved, and squeezed Bai Yao's palm flatteringly.
"It's okay, go to sleep, I'm here." Bai Yao raised his hand to gently cover his eyelids, letting Mu Mu'er close his eyes.
Even though they were holding hands, Mu Muer was still dissatisfied, and dragged Bai Yao to the bed a little, trying to make him lie down beside her, "Sleep together."
Mu Mu'er doesn't make trouble, when he is in a bad mood, he just suppresses it by himself, and after suppressing it, he will be happy in the end. He doesn't act coquettishly to please, and what he says is always the most straightforward thought in his heart.
"Well, Mu'er is sleeping." Bai Yao softly coaxed him.
Mu Muer pulled his hand so tightly that Bai Yao's fingers ached. He seemed to be afraid that when he woke up after falling asleep, Bai Yao would not be by his side.
After a long time, Mu Muer's breathing gradually became longer and her whole body relaxed. Bai Yao didn't leave, and sat on the edge of the bed quietly watching him fall asleep, and brushed aside a bit of soft hair on his forehead.
His eyes fell on a scar on the boy's hairline, and he suddenly remembered something.
But before Bai Yao could think about it, there was a slight sound on the floor of the room behind him. The sound was so soft that it could be ignored, but it still seemed abrupt in the silent room.
Bai Yao didn't look back.
"It's not polite to enter someone else's house casually." He was afraid of waking Mu Mu'er, so he lowered his voice very softly, suppressing his breath.
Mu Yi stood at the door of the bedroom and looked at Mu Mu'er who was fast asleep on the bed. He didn't reply for a while, as if he didn't hear at all.
"I'm sorry." It took him a long time to reply, and there was not much apology in his voice. He didn't take his eyes off Mu Muer, and said to Bai Yao, "But I want to talk to you."
Bai Yao squeezed Mu Muer's hand, released it cautiously, got up and left the bedroom: "Go out and talk."
Mu Yi followed behind him, closing the door softly.
It's getting late, even if the sun sets late in summer, there is only a shallow layer of warm light on the horizon, and the brightest stars can already be seen in the distant sky.
"What to drink?" Bai Yao asked.
"Is there any bourbon?"
Bai Yao took a bottle from the wine cabinet and went to the kitchen to fetch two glasses.
Upstairs, there was no ice cubes in the kitchen at home, they were all in the tray of the freezer downstairs. Bai Yao didn't bother to go downstairs to get them, so he poured the wine directly from the bottle into the glass.
He just poured himself a glass of water.
When he went out from the kitchen, Mu Yi was standing in front of the living room window looking at the coast not far away. It was almost completely dark, and with a little street lamp, you could see the white waves of the sea washing against the beach.
His back also looks lonely and cold, Mu Yi is a sea otter spirit, but his aura is not inferior to the ferocious beasts on land, comparable to lions or wild wolves.
Bai Yao paused at the entrance of the living room, and looked at this man coldly.
How could this kind of hard Bing Tuozi have such a cute and well-behaved younger brother as Mu Mu'er.
"No ice, just make do with it." He put the cup on the tea table, sat down without waiting for Mu Yi.
Mu Yi turned around after hearing the voice, walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite Bai Yao, but didn't touch the wine glass he put on the tea table.
He spoke first.
"You are a dignified snow leopard spirit, and you are willing to live by the sea."
Bai Yao didn't explain, just said: "There are few people here."
Mu Yi's aura is almost exactly the same as that of Mu Muer's, I don't know if it's because they are both sea otter spirits, or because they are brothers.
"It's been six years, he's changed, but he doesn't seem to have changed, he should be going to college now." Mu Yi chuckled, "He... hasn't grown much taller, he's still the same."
The thirteen-year-old Mu Muer is about the same height as the nineteen-year-old Mu Muer, which is somewhat distressing.
Mu Mu'er is only 1.7 meters tall now, within the normal height, but still short. Mu Yi is almost as tall as Bai Yao, so it stands to reason that Mu Muer can be even taller.
Not growing tall is just because it is not well developed.
Because of malnutrition, because he is often hungry.
At the age when he should grow tallest, he couldn't grab food, and the supposedly round little sea otter was like a puppy that couldn't be loved by its owner.
Bai Yao hesitated for a moment, and didn't bring up the matter. It doesn't make any sense to talk about it now, as long as he is the only one who knows.
"When I first met him, he was even thinner, so small, I thought he was in his early teens." Bai Yao chuckled, "It's also like a baby sea otter."
Mu Yi didn't speak, but Bai Yao could tell from his expression and fingers holding the wine glass tightly that he was not feeling well, so he changed the topic a little bluntly.
"Have you been to Zhennan?"
He bet that the sea otter scent that Jing Xiaoqing detected was Mu Muer's brother.
Mu Yi didn't expect Bai Yao to ask him this suddenly, he was stunned for two seconds, looked at Bai Yao with some doubts in his eyes, "Yes, I have searched all over Qiaohai Town, starting from the west end. I asked on the way A few people, someone said they saw a boy about his age here, so I came here."
In fact, Mu Yi noticed Mu Muer the day he was in City C, not only because of the breath of the sea otter spirit, but also because he was his younger brother.
I only sensed a familiar smell, but I didn't see anyone.
He waited for a few days before sending someone to investigate, just because for so many years, he thought he had found his younger brother countless times, but was disappointed time and time again. The people he sent only found out that Bai Yao and Mu Mu'er were from Qiaohai Town, but they didn't find out where they lived.
Mu Yi gave up two business negotiations and came to find him in person. This time, he made the right bet.
The two fell silent, save for the steady sound of waves outside the open window.
After a while, Bai Yao said, "Why is he so afraid of you?"
The ticking of the wall clock was the only sound in the room.
"The quarrel between me and him was very fierce, and I said some unpleasant things." Mu Yi paused for a while, before he could speak, "He probably...has always hated me."
It would be an understatement to say that, but Mu Yi didn't intend to continue explaining.
He continued: "You want to ask why I quarreled with him."
This is a statement, not a question.
Bai Yao shrugged: "No, I was just thinking that Mu'er probably doesn't hate you, he's not that kind of person. At most, he just doesn't remember you."
He leaned back on the back of the sofa, reached out his hand to take out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, took out one and bit it in his mouth before raising his eyes and asking, "Do you mind?"
Mu Yi glanced at the cigarette held between Bai Yao's fingers, said nothing, just took out a silver cigarette case from his pocket. The quality of the cigarette case is not low, if it is not too much money and occupying space, no one will use it.
After pulling out one from it, Mu Yi said: "Borrow a fire."
Bai Yao chuckled lightly, and used a lighter to ignite sparks in Mu Yi's cigarette.
There was a faint smell of nicotine in the living room, and two puffs of white smoke merged together, rising to the roof of the living room and disappearing.
Mu Yi didn't speak until the cigarette in his hand was only half left.
"Don't smoke too much, it's bad for your lungs." After finishing speaking, Mu Yi took another puff and exhaled slowly, "Our parents divorced very early. We both followed my mother. When I was nineteen, She had cancer and died within two years."
This made Bai Yao a little surprised, he raised his eyes slightly, and looked again at the person opposite the sofa in front of him.
Few of the animal spirits are willing to find other animal spirits as partners, so the children they give birth to will only be animals of the same species, and they must keep the same secret as they do.
All animal spirits are willing to find humans to be their families. At least their children will be normal people who can live carefree in the human world without worrying about this shady secret being discovered.
If you really marry the same species, then most of the partners will not choose to separate, a lifetime is a lifetime, and they will never separate until death.
This world doesn't have much tolerance for people who are different, let alone people who are transformed from small animals.
Divorce of animals of the same species is extremely rare, let alone families with two children, which can be said to be very rare.
But Bai Yao didn't have the right to speak, let alone judge Mu Mu'er's parents from a short sentence, so he didn't say anything.
"My younger brother was very obedient when I was a child. He obeyed everything I asked him to do, except for one thing. He especially likes changing shapes. No matter when, what place, if I don't care about him, he can instantly turn into a sea otter. He has been like this since he was a child. It's still like this until I'm more than ten years old." Mu Yi smiled lightly.
When he smiles, he is different from Mu Muer, his eyes are not so curved, and the smile only stays at the corners of his mouth and the end of his eyes, his smile is not open, but it also fills the cold appearance with a bit of softness.
"I always feel that I don't have a younger brother. I have raised a sea otter, and I have to hide it, for fear of being seen by others, so I won't be caught by animal protection agencies."
Hearing this, Bai Yao couldn't hold back and let out a low laugh. Over the years, Mu Mu'er has never changed in this way, she is so innocent and cute, and never cares what others think of him.
Transforming into the original body is always the most comfortable, and the animal spirit probably only dared to transform casually when it was a child. When they grow up a bit, they will gradually understand that showing their original bodies will be discriminated against, so they reject this move from the bottom of their hearts, trying to become people who are no different from human beings.
In fact, most animal spirits live no differently from humans, and for many years can't even remember that they were transformed from small animals into humans, and this secret gradually fades away and is sealed deep in the brain.
At this age, Mu Mu'er can take shape at will without worrying about other people's eyes. Even though he is a special person and didn't think of this level, this simple and lovely little thought is still so precious that it makes people feel distressed.
"He often turns into a sea otter and squats at the door of my room to scare me. When I scold him, he pretends not to understand and quarrels with me." Mu Yi turned the wine glass in his hand, "Having a younger brother is really troublesome, But no matter what is given to me, I am still willing to be his brother."
"He's the only family I have."
Seeing that Mu Yi's wine glass was empty, Bai Yao poured him another glass.
He thinks he knows Mu Muer very well, and he has lived with Mu Muer for more than two months. He knows everything from when Mu Muer sleeps, what color he likes, what food he doesn't like, and what animals he is afraid of.
But now he heard the story about this boy from a complete stranger, and he realized that Mu Muer was not just a cute and innocent little sea otter. There have been people who are willing to give him a home.
This is also the first time he realizes that there are people in this world who know Mu Muer better than himself.
For a long time, he even called Mu Muer's name wrong all the time, so he still didn't know much about him.
Bai Yao flicked a cigarette in the ashtray, looked at the man in front of him through the smoke in the living room, and finally asked, "Why are you arguing?"
He leaned back with a cigarette in his hand, his long legs stretched out.
This time, Mu Yi hesitated for a long time before answering, his voice was a little lower, and he didn't look at Bai Yao.
"The day before Mu Mu's birthday, he said he wanted to ask me for a gift. I brought him to such an age, and he never took the initiative to ask me for anything. I agreed without thinking." He pressed out his cigarette **** in the ashtray, "I asked him what he wanted, but he said he wanted to tell me one thing first."
Mu Yi's eyes were fixed on the wall, his eyes couldn't figure it out.
Bai Yao couldn't bear to wait, and just wanted to ask, but Mu Yi continued to talk.
"He told me that he likes boys, doesn't want to change, and won't change, and wants to find a boyfriend in the future."
"I can't tell what emotion I was in at the time, maybe the most disappointment was." Mu Yi's voice was a little lower, tinged with imperceptible regret, "A person can say anything when he is angry, I told him The words were ugly, let him... go out. As a result, he pushed me away and ran away, but I didn't chase him."
Mu Yi paused, picked up the wine glass on the coffee table, raised his head and drank it down.
The spicy and bitter wine slipped into his stomach, and he didn't even frown.
"Why didn't I go after him?" He smiled wryly, "I waited for him all night, and he didn't come back on the second or third day. When I searched again, I couldn't find him. I called the police and sent It's useless to kill people."
"I'm kind of an asshole, I know."
"Actually, thinking about it now, what's the big deal, isn't it the same gender?"
"He is my younger brother, no matter what he does, I can accept it."
Mu Yi looked at Bai Yao with complicated eyes, as if he was waiting for his reaction, waiting for him to wantonly judge his younger brother.
Indeed, what's wrong with liking men, the person you like is the person you like, regardless of gender.
Maybe it was impulsive, maybe it was just because Bai Yao wanted to see a different emotion on Mu Yi's indifferent and proud face, he pulled one corner of his mouth upwards, with a cigarette between his fingers, and said with a light smile: "What a coincidence, I and Your brother is quite similar, and he also likes men."
