Chapter 57: Mu Chuang Swallows Saliva While Looking at Lin Xi
This time, Mu Chuang didn’t stop him; instead, he shamelessly followed along.
The two entered the backyard one after the other. When they reached his door, Lin Xi stopped.
“It’s getting late…” Before he could finish saying, “Master, you should go back and rest,” Mu Chuang interrupted him and seamlessly continued, “…let’s go to sleep early.”
Lin Xi’s back stiffened, feeling a chill run down his spine. He didn’t expect this drama king to be so good at acting.
“You…” He was furious, a surge of anger stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down. He couldn’t cope with the other’s ability to switch between two identities so smoothly.
He glared with his beautiful eyes, trembling with anger.
“What about me?” Mu Chuang smiled wickedly, with a hint of triumph. “Isn’t it normal for me to sleep with Xiaoyu? I’ve been here for so long, our relationship is what it is, what reason do you have to refuse?”
As he spoke, he moved closer to Lin Xi, making a vulgar gesture. What he previously considered disgusting, he now found so easy to do.
He pinned him against the door, lifting his chin with a rogue-like posture. “Be obedient, and I might be considerate. Otherwise… you’ll taste my roughness.”
Lin Xi couldn’t help but shudder. For a moment, he thought the real Mu Chuang had returned.
Because in his memory, Mu Chuang had always treated him like a younger brother. How could he make such a lewd and vulgar gesture?
What’s more, the other party didn’t like him at all, even hating Nánfēng. Even to disgust him, he couldn’t have acted so realistically unless he had really lost his mind.
“I’m suddenly in a bad mood, I can’t sleep.” He slapped away the hand that was pinching his chin, and said stubbornly, “I want to sit in the pavilion for a while, and go back to my room when I feel sleepy.”
“Tch!” Mu Chuang was amused by his anger. He extended an arm to support himself on the door, blocking his way. “Is it so hard to call me ‘Brother Chuang’? If you obediently admit it, I promise not to touch you randomly, otherwise… don’t blame me for being rude.”
Lin Xi was forced to lean against the door, looking up at this man who was once so familiar, but now somewhat neurotic. He couldn’t think of a countermeasure for a long time.
He didn’t want to admit it, nor did he want to be bullied by him. Even less did he want to be touched by him again, because the feeling of being severely disgusted by the other party was still fresh in his memory.
Although he looked weak, he was a person with strong self-esteem. Since the other party had once scorned him, he would not give him any more chances, nor would he allow him to play with him at will.
“Has master forgotten that there are three newly acquired concubines living in your other courtyard? If the master knows that you are still here with me tonight, he will definitely be furious tomorrow.”
Helplessly, he had to bring up Master Mu to see if Mu Chuang was afraid of his father.
After he finished speaking, he stared at the other party’s face. Under the dim eaves lamp, he saw that the other party had put away his smile and his expression had become complicated.
“Do you mind those three women?” Who knew that Mu Chuang’s train of thought would directly focus on this point. After a series of psychological struggles, he finally asked, “Do you still like me?”
After he finished speaking, he stared at Lin Xi’s eyes, as if unwilling to miss any emotional change in his eyes.
Lin Xi didn’t answer. He felt inexplicably sad by the other party’s words, wondering when this man had started to face this issue squarely.
“Master is overthinking. I wouldn’t mind even if you took in ten more concubines.” He still used Lin Yu’s identity and stated that he was insignificant in his heart. “I’m just worried that if you spend all day with me, you’ll anger the master to death, or he’ll kick me out in a fit of anger, and you won’t be able to stop him.”
His words finally got to the point. Mu Chuang’s face changed instantly…
He was really afraid that Master Mu would kick Lin Xi out. After all, he had the final say in this county government mansion.
In addition, Zhao Yuming was single-mindedly thinking about redeeming him, and Lin Xi was also trying every means to get out. If he wasn’t careful, it would really lead to bad consequences.
“Okay,” Having figured out the key, he decided to compromise for the time being. “But I will definitely not go to them. I might as well go back to my room to sleep. I don’t believe that old man can really do anything to me.”
“Also,” he emphasized, “I won’t touch those three women, and I won’t take any more women. I just want to keep you here, and I will never allow you to leave me even half a step, and I will never allow you to run away with other men, otherwise…”
He re-pinched Lin Xi’s chin, staring at the thin lips that were glistening under the dim eaves lamp, and couldn’t help swallowing saliva.
“…I’ll bite you until you bleed.” He clenched his back teeth when he said this, as if he was encouraging himself to overcome some psychological barrier.
After all, he had watched Lin Xi grow up since he was a child, and had always treated him as a younger brother. Now that he suddenly had a little bit of that kind of feeling for him, to be honest, he really couldn’t bring himself to do it.
But the feeling in his heart forced him to want to do it, so now, he needed some time to transition slowly.
Lin Xi stared at his action of swallowing saliva, his heart in a mess. If it were normal, he would have been overjoyed.
But now, he only thought that Mu Chuang’s brain was broken, and he was short-circuiting temporarily, which was why he would make such a move. When he woke up, he would definitely blame himself for it again.
“Master should leave.” He organized all the mess into one sentence, and then slapped away the hand that was pinching his chin and pushed open his door.
Mu Chuang was hesitating whether to continue following him, when he heard a “bang,” and the door was closed from the inside.
He froze for a moment, and then turned around. He glanced at the night view in the courtyard and felt that it was really suitable to keep such an ice-like beauty in such a quiet place.
“The original owner is really a man of taste.” He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, “Fortunately, I came, otherwise…”
He looked back at the house behind him, his eyes becoming deep, “…I won’t let you be taken advantage of by others.”
After saying this, he clenched his back teeth again, and then flicked his wide sleeves and left the courtyard gate. A few strands of gold thread intertwined in his high ponytail shone like stars under the dim eaves lamp.
“Someone,” He instructed the servant guarding the night as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, “Go call two guards over and keep a close watch on this place for me. Without my permission, Lin Gongzi must not take half a step out of here.”
“And you,” He looked at Lin Xi’s personal maid, his expression serious, “From tomorrow onwards, you will deliver food to him three times a day according to Lin Gongzi’s wishes. Don’t neglect him.”
