mood
"Since we were all going to die, I might as well drag them along. I fought them recklessly, but in the end I escaped death. I ran to a sweet-scented osmanthus tree and was rescued by a drunkard who was sitting there drinking." When he said this, Liu Muzhe couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
That drunk bastard Ye Chenyi teased him. He was exhausted from the fight and seriously injured, so he had no strength to resist. He was carried to the inn by Ye Chenyi...
He had just escaped from a tiger's mouth, only to find himself in a wolf's den. He was heartbroken. If he had known earlier, it would have been better to let those people chop him up and eat him than to be tortured by this damned devil!
But he didn't expect that he had misunderstood and met a good person this time. Ye Chenyi carefully applied medicine to him, bandaged his wounds, and avenged him. He took good care of him and protected him as a younger brother.
In this chaotic world, apart from his master, Ye Chenyi was the only person who extended a helping hand to him and his family. If it weren't for Ye Chenyi, he wouldn't have survived more than a few years as a young boy. It would have been only a matter of time before he starved to death or was beaten to death.
However, in the end, Ye Chenyi really became a dead ghost, not even a dead ghost, and he was trapped in this den of dead ghosts, unable to extricate himself...
Once emotions erupt, they're like a flood bursting through a dam, difficult to contain. All the experiences, good and bad, flooded into Liu Muze's mind, and he smiled bitterly inwardly.
The only lucky thing in his life was meeting his master and Ye Chenyi. His master taught him how to survive and then left, leaving him struggling along the way and losing half his life.
On those dark days, I told myself over and over that it was okay, everything would be fine, and God would bless everyone. Finally, everything really got better. I met Ye Chenyi, and he protected me all the way. When I finally felt that life wasn't so hard after all, he was gone.
Fortunately... Fortunately, I have grown up and will never be bullied again. I can protect myself.
But why is it still so difficult to live?
What did I do wrong?
I just want to live well...
"Brother Liu?" Ye Jing'an called him softly when he heard that Liu Muzhe didn't move.
Liu Muzhe opened the door and got out of the car without saying a word.
"Brother Liu, where are you going?" Ye Jing'an followed behind.
"It's okay, I..." Liu Muze didn't finish his words, and the two of them were stunned. He didn't expect his voice to be so hoarse. He coughed twice to clear his throat and continued to speak with a brave face, "I want to take a walk, can you please not follow me?"
Ye Jingan finally understood that the reason Brother Liu was so powerful was because he had sacrificed his life time and time again. He was omniscient, omnipotent, and powerful enough to protect many people. But no one would have thought, let alone noticed, that even such a powerful man could be sad and cry, and also need to be protected and loved.
He looks like a very mature and steady adult, but in fact he is a child who has locked himself in a cage.
Liu Muzhe walked towards a small path on the mountain with his head lowered. After taking a few steps, he was suddenly hugged by a pair of arms around his waist, and then a warm chest pressed against his back.
Ye Jingan put his head on his shoulder and sighed softly: "What on earth have you been through?"
Liu Muzhe was about to pry Ye Jingan's hand away when it stopped in mid-air.
Ye Jingan held his shoulders and asked him to turn around, then reached out to wipe away the tears from his face.
If Liu Muze's voice hadn't changed, Ye Jing'an wouldn't have known he was crying. There was no sobbing or crying, just sitting there in silence as usual. Ye Jing'an knew that if he hadn't noticed and hadn't asked questions, Brother Liu would have wiped it away with his hand, turned around, and acted like nothing had happened.
He always collapses silently and heals himself silently.
"Don't cry, I will protect you and will never let you go through those bad things again." Ye Jingan took out a piece of paper to wipe his tears. "If you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me and take it out on me!"
This made Liu Muze laugh: "With your limited ability, how can you protect me?"
"I have a life. If anything happens, I will take care of it. You just run!" Ye Jing'an said with a smile.
Liu Muze felt a pang in his heart, but then he felt a warm current flowing from his heart to his whole body, and said, "No need."
"Then what do you need?" Ye Jing'an poked his face.
"I need you to stop touching me." Liu Muzhe gently pushed Ye Jing'an away and tidied up the clothes that were wrinkled by him.
"No problem, don't be sad, let's go drink." Ye Jing'an just promised not to touch her in the previous second, and then he started flirting with her in the next second.
"..." Liu Muze felt that this kid seemed to have too many hands, and he would feel itchy if he didn't touch people. He was also used to being flirted with by Ye Jingan, but he was still curious and wanted to ask, "Why do you always like to... hug people?"
"It seems like we're getting closer!" Ye Jing'an smiled innocently and hugged the man a little tighter.
Liu Muzhe had nothing to say, this was quite intimate.
"We're all grown men, why are you embarrassed? Many grown men are like this." Ye Jing'an smiled and moved his face closer. "Oh~ I forgot you like men. Are you shy when a man hugs you?"
"First, I don't like men. Second, I just don't like others touching me, not because I'm shy!" Liu Muzhe said seriously.
"Don't you like men?" Ye Jing'an questioned, "Is your brother a woman?"
"I don't like men, I just like him, it's just that he is a man! It has nothing to do with gender, I just like him." Liu Muzhe sighed helplessly.
"Oh, well said." Ye Jing'an pressed on, "Do you only allow him to hug you like this?"
"No, I don't like him touching me either." Liu Muzhe raised his eyebrows.
This answer surprised Ye Jingan a little, and he asked again: "Are you sure you really like him?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Liu Muzhe was speechless. This unfortunate kid was really nosy.
"Yes, I'm your relative!" Ye Jing'an asked again, "Has he ever hugged you?"
Liu Muze: "..."
Ye Jingan held him back and wouldn't let him leave.
"Why do you really want to know this?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"Because you hugged me, I'm afraid you're interested in me!" Ye Jing'an put the cart before the horse and deliberately stayed away from him.
"..." Liu Muze said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't!"
Ye Jingan was still reluctant to leave and insisted on speaking.
"Hold him!" Liu Muzhe said.
"What were you thinking at that time?" Ye Jing'an asked curiously.
"When we first met, you hugged me when I was injured. What do you think I was thinking?" Liu Muzhe laughed strangely. The thoughts in his mind at that time were a bit complicated.
Ye Jingan was secretly happy. That buddy wasn't treated very well by Brother Liu either. He had to hug him when he was injured. Brother Liu had voluntarily hugged him, Ye Jingan, to sleep! The more Ye Jingan thought about it, the happier he became. He couldn't help but curl his lips: "Hey, what was your thought when you hugged me to sleep last time?"
"I'm mentally ill!" Liu Muzhe was speechless. He shouldn't have told the unlucky kid these crappy things about his ancestors. It was like opening up a new world for him. He was curious about this and that and asked about everything.
"Are you interested in me?" Ye Jing'an almost laughed his mouth off. "Otherwise, why did you agree to hug me?"
"..." Liu Muze really regretted agreeing. Seeing the child in so much pain, he agreed out of heartache. It was normal for a master to comfort his own child. But he was hiding his identity, and he was just a brother who was only slightly older than Ye Jingan. It was really not right for these two men to sleep together. No wonder Ye Jingan was suspicious.
Liu Muzhe feels embarrassed when he thinks about it now. He doesn't want to talk about this matter again. Why did he agree to it?
"Why aren't you talking?" Ye Jing'an leaned closer. "Is this your consent?"
"Do you really want to know?" Liu Muzhe had already thought of a reason to fool him.
Ye Jingan nodded expectantly.
"When I saw you injured, you looked very similar to my best friend. I couldn't bear it, so I agreed." Liu Muzhe said in a dull tone.
"..." Ye Jingan's mood plummeted. After all, Brother Liu hugged him because of that person. He was so happy that he thought Brother Liu was interested in him. "That's good!"
Ye Jingan pulled him into the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
"Huh? Why did you leave? The boss hasn't closed the stall yet." Liu Muzhe looked at the barbecue stall. Several waves of people had just arrived. Although it was already eleven o'clock, it was still very lively. It seemed that the stall would be open until the early morning.
"No, let's go have a drink." Ye Jing'an said in an unhappy tone. It was all because of this stupid thing. Brother Liu was crying because of the sad things he remembered. What's the point of going?
Liu Muzhe thought drinking would delay things, so he turned around and went back.
"I'm so sleepy. It's dangerous to drive like this. Are you sure you want me to turn around?" Ye Jingan knew that Liu Muze would only take soft actions and not hard ones, so he started to act pitiful.
"Then I'll go by myself, you go back first." Liu Muzhe said.
"That's even worse. If I fall asleep while driving alone, you won't be able to see me tomorrow." Ye Jing'an raised the corner of his mouth.
"Then..." Liu Muzhe was silent.
Ye Jing'an drove to the street to buy some wine. He wanted to buy the sweet-scented osmanthus wine that Liu Muzhe liked to drink, but many shops were closed late at night and he couldn't find any after looking for several.
"What do you want to buy? You've been to several stores." Liu Muzhe asked.
"Buy some wine." Ye Jing'an said.
"It's almost midnight, and you're still going out to drink?" Liu Muzhe said helplessly.
"I don't really drink it." Ye Jing'an ran into a big supermarket and finally saw osmanthus wine for sale.
Liu Muzhe took two small bottles to pay the bill. Ye Jingan felt it was too little, so he went to get four more buckets.
"You want to get me drunk to death at this time of night?" Liu Muzhe felt dizzy just looking at it, but he couldn't drink that much.
Ye Jingan waved his hand and said, "I'm going to drink myself to death today!"
Back at the hotel, Ye Jingan poured two glasses, handed them to Liu Muze and said, "Brother Liu, cheers!"
"Drink less, I'm really scared of you." Liu Muzhe took a sip.
"Oh, I saw that osmanthus wine was quite hard to buy, and since you like it, I bought some more at once. Who said we'd finish it tonight?" Ye Jing'an said with a smile, "Just two cups and then go to bed and rest, don't worry!"
The next day, Ye Jingning and Qiu Zimu saw that they had no news from the two of them all night, and no one answered the phone even though they broke it.
The two panicked, thinking they were in danger and might have been killed, and they hurriedly called the police to tell them what happened yesterday. After hearing Ye Jingning's emotional description, the police hurriedly checked the surveillance footage to see the itinerary of Ye Jingan and the other two.
Not long after, the police brought Ye Jingning and Qiu Zimu to Liu Muze's room. The door was still locked from the inside with a bolt, but fortunately the police were experienced.
As soon as they opened the door, the scene in front of them surprised them.
