Chapter 28 I want to ask you, do you like me?
"Dreaming about me?"
Hearing the voice, he straightened up and turned to look at He Mu.
What did you dream about me about?
He thought to himself that a deity like He Mu wouldn't have such dreams, but he still secretly hoped for them.
If even mountain gods have erotic dreams, then they won't feel so ashamed.
However, this unfounded speculation was quickly shattered by Mu's next words.
He Mu's expression was somewhat indifferent at this moment. He leaned back on the bed and said, "I dreamed that after I didn't choose to ascend, I met you and lived with you."
Did you not choose your life after ascension?
Hearing the voice, he had no concept of "ascension." He poked his cheek and thought for a while before saying, "Do you really want to stay with me forever?"
The coldness in He Mu's eyes faded somewhat, returning to its original gentleness.
He chuckled softly and said, "Of course I want to."
A human voice said, "Then let's both become immortals and live on forever, so we can be together forever, right?"
He Mu touched his face and asked, "Do you want to be family with me forever?"
Upon hearing the voice, I was about to blurt out, "Yes."
But when the words reached his lips, he choked and couldn't say them.
Always treated like family?
Does he really want to be family with He Mu forever? Without any selfish motives, just like he would treat the clan leader and his master?
That doesn't seem to be the case.
He liked Mu very much and naturally hoped to become family with him for life, never to be separated. This was their initial agreement.
But as she grew up, especially after experiencing her first love in that dream, Wen Rensheng realized that what she wanted was more than just becoming family with the mountain god.
Perhaps... the mountain god really is his beloved?
It's the kind of person you not only want to be with, but also want to share your desires, express your love, and stay together through thick and thin.
It doesn't sound like something that's hard to accept.
But why am I always so pessimistic about this idea? I always feel that it is a particularly bad thing to regard He Mu as my lover?
He couldn't help but think of what Yi Jinxiang had said: "He will not have a good end."
Will those who love the mountain god also meet a tragic end?
Hearing no answer to the question, he became quite depressed and hugged his blanket to lie down on one side of the bed.
“I’m a little sleepy,” he mumbled. “Goodnight, mountain god.”
Hearing the voices suddenly turn into an angry rabbit, and that Mu was deliberately sleeping with his back to him, he was filled with doubt.
Was what he just said wrong?
He Mu propped his head up with one hand and pulled Wen Rensheng closer to him.
"You heard a human voice?"
Hearing voices, it wrapped itself up and moved back, refusing to reply, as if it were sulking.
He Mu tried to touch his hand again, but Wen Rensheng turned away and dodged her.
"..."
It feels so awkward.
He's still just a kid.
He thought this helplessly, and simply wrapped his arms around Wen Rensheng's waist, pulling her into his embrace.
"!!"
As soon as the mask was applied, the sound of someone's voice made her open her eyes immediately. Her heart was pounding, and she was so nervous that she even tensed up her legs.
Isn't this just like in that dream?
The mountain god wouldn't want to touch his tail again, would he?
...No, calm down. Listen to human voices. You are a human now, you don't have a tail!
He quickly buried half his face in the blanket he was holding and tentatively asked, "...What?"
He Mu didn't say anything; he lowered his head and buried it in Wen Rensheng's shoulder.
Hearing the voice, he saw that the person was not wearing clothes, and the faint mole on the back of his neck was openly exposed. The person also had a faint herbal scent emanating from them, which made him want to take a bite.
“Sheng Sheng,” he said after a moment of hesitation, “do you hate me?”
Hearing voices, he held his breath, and Mu held him tightly around the waist; their bodies were almost pressed together.
He Mu's aura was like a tightly sealed net, binding her tightly within it, making her senses only able to perceive him.
Hearing the voice, his face turned bright red. He hurriedly covered the blanket in his arms and stammered, "No, no."
He Mu raised his head slightly, leaned close to Wen Rensheng's ear, and whispered, "Then why have you been unwilling to talk to me lately?"
Hearing voices, she didn't know how to explain to He Mu, and she was too embarrassed to say that she was in heat, so she often had those kinds of dreams, and she became very sensitive when she was near He Mu.
He hesitated for a long time before finally blurting out, "I feel like I've grown up... I've heard that other people my age are already married and have children."
He Mu chuckled and teased in a low voice, "So you're thinking about getting married too?"
“No, that’s not it!” Wenrensheng retorted. “It’s that I don’t want to rely on the mountain god like this anymore. I want to be more independent.”
And what about getting married?
He never even considered marrying anyone.
If there has to be one, it can only be with the mountain god.
Hearing the voices, she imagined herself wearing a veil and getting married to Mu Baitang, and shyly tugged at the blanket.
“Okay,” He Mu’s tone softened a bit, “You’ve been ignoring me these past few days, I thought you had a girl you liked.”
Hearing someone's voice, he nudged He Mu's hand, giving himself enough space to turn around, and then turned back to look at He Mu seriously.
"I don't have any girls I like. I only know my master as a woman, and that's all."
"...If we really have to count, there are also the chieftain's little rabbits, they're not even a year old yet."
He Muyuan meant to make a joke, but seeing how seriously he answered, with the blush on his cheeks still lingering, she found him even more adorable.
He pinched Wenrensheng's cheek and laughed, "Alright, alright, I know, you don't have anyone you like..."
"No," Wen Rensheng lowered his eyes and interrupted him softly, "Mountain God, don't make wild guesses."
He paused, then said, "After I've thought it through, I'll explain everything to the mountain god. Let's go to sleep for now."
After saying this, he didn't look up at He Mu's eyes again. He hugged He Mu back and buried his face in his chest, nuzzling against him a couple of times.
He Mu was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the child in his arms, whose whole body was pressed against him and whose legs were straddling him.
She's clearly more clingy than before.
So... do you hate him or not?
Children's thoughts are so hard to fathom.
He Mu sighed inwardly, patted Wen Rensheng's back lightly, and closed his eyes.
*
That night, just as the fox demon had said, Hearing Human Voices, He had another dream.
Fortunately, this time the scene in the dream was no longer in the mountain spring, and Wen Rensheng no longer had that sticky and damp strange feeling.
When he regained consciousness, he found himself lying on his bed in his bedroom, with someone leaning over him and casting a shadow over the bed, enveloping him in it.
The light and shadow outside were dappled, both bright and blurry, vaguely swallowing up most of the scenery, leaving only the bed and the person.
"...Mountain God?"
Hearing a voice, he called out instinctively.
He Mu hummed in agreement, then pulled Wen Rensheng's hand to his face, closed his eyes, and kissed the palm of her hand.
Hearing the voice, she slightly curled her fingers and looked at He Mu with some helplessness.
That kiss was too heavy.
Even someone as inexperienced and naive as Wen Rensheng would find it difficult not to understand the emotions conveyed.
After the kiss, He Mu rested her cheek against Wen Rensheng's palm, looking at him with an ambiguous gaze.
Hearing voices, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong with Mu, but he had no strength and his mind was foggy, so he couldn't think straight and had no reaction at all.
He Mu stared at him for a moment before finally letting go of his hand.
“Sheng Sheng,” he said, his eyes crinkling into a smile, “you dreamed about me again?”
dream……
Oh right, this is a dream.
He Mu continued laughing, snuggling close to Wen Rensheng's neck, and asked, "What do you want to do tonight?"
Upon hearing this, the sound of voices reminded him of that damp dream from last time, and his cheeks flushed instantly.
He flinched and slid down a little.
"...I don't want to do anything."
He didn't want to have that dream of having his tail touched again. He was sleeping with the mountain god tonight, and if he woke up in the morning with his clothes wet, wouldn't he be discovered?
He couldn't even bear to think about something so shameful.
He Mu didn't make things difficult for him. He straightened up and pulled Wen Rensheng up as well, and the two sat facing each other.
Hearing voices, she instinctively pulled her legs back and placed them on He Mu's legs.
He had loved sitting face-to-face with He Mu since he was a child, even though he was short-legged back then and He Mu could easily pull him into her arms.
The atmosphere improved a bit, and I wasn't so nervous when I heard people talking.
He looked up at He Mu with a smile and asked, "Mountain God, were the things you said in my dream true?"
He Mu replied matter-of-factly, "Of course, do you think I'm a liar?"
Hearing the voice, he nodded: "Yes, the mountain god has been lying to me all along, he's very bad."
He Mu rubbed his cheek and said, "Then don't ask."
Hearing the human voice, he said unhappily, "I'm going to ask, and I'm going to ask the mountain god a very important question."
He Mu smiled and said, "Go ahead and ask. I'll answer honestly."
Hearing the voice, he hesitated for a moment, then cautiously met He Mu's gaze and asked:
"do you like me?"
Without hesitation, He Mu replied, "I like it."
Hearing someone's voice, she quickly pushed him away and said, "It's not that kind of liking, it's that kind of, that kind of... um..."
He racked his brains for a while, and finally had a flash of inspiration, pointing to his lips.
"You want to kiss me here because you like it."
After a three-second pause, Mu grabbed Wenren's ankle, lifted his back, and was about to kiss him.
"Don't kiss me!" someone shouted urgently, trying to stop him. "You should just say it directly, 'Don't kiss me!' I've never kissed anyone before!"
He Mu opened his mouth to answer, but Wen Rensheng quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
"Forget it, don't believe what you hear in dreams, stop talking!"
At this moment, no matter what Mu answers, hearing people's voices will make her feel flustered.
He had only just figured out his own feelings and didn't want to hear any answers, not even in his dreams.
He heard a voice earnestly instructing He Mu: "From now on, don't say anything anymore, understand?"
Seeing He Mu nod, Wen Rensheng felt relieved and removed his hand from He Mu's mouth.
He shifted forward slightly, nestled obediently into He Mu's arms, and sighed softly.
"Actually, I'm more curious to know, what would you think if I told you I'm a monster?"
He said in a low voice,
"Don't you feel like I lied to you back then... or that I was really awful?"
Wen Rensheng has always been a very emotional person. He always tends to consider the worst-case scenario for everything and then wishfully believes it to be true.
Especially after realizing his own feelings, he felt increasingly lost.
The lie told back then became an indelible thorn, buried deep for many years, and is now finally revealed along with the emotions that have broken through the soil.
What should he do?
In Fangze Mountain, some people taught him knowledge, and some taught him martial arts, but he had never been exposed to the vast world, and no one taught him how to make amends for his mistakes or how to face his own heart.
Everything was like looking at flowers through a fog, like this naive and blurry dream. He couldn't tell where the boundary was or where the end was.
In the dream, Mu and Wenren didn't speak. He just held Wenren tightly, his wet kisses biting his shoulder.
Hearing human voices made him feel a little pain, and he couldn't help but groan softly.
"It hurts so much!" he complained. "You really are a fake mountain god. He wouldn't use that much force."
But hearing voices, she knew the dream was about to end, so she didn't resist. Instead, she wrapped her legs around Mu's waist and hugged him even tighter.
"Forget it, I don't blame you."
He said in a muffled voice,
"Don't blame me for lying to you, okay?"
