After filling their stomachs, Mu Yunxiao dragged Bai Chi around the house to check everything. Even though he hadn't lived here for the past two years, everything was exactly the same as it had been two years ago.
Even his clothes were the perfect size, hanging in the same dressing room as Achi's clothes, and even the same as the clothes he wore at the Mu family's house, except they were all brand new.
He also found the same set of clothes on himself.
So every time I prepare new clothes for him, it's always two sets?
One set was sent to the Mu family, and the other was left here?
Mu Yunxiao's face lit up with a smile as he looked around. It wasn't just the clothes; everything was his, including the unused toothbrush and bath towel, his favorite perfume, his slippers, and so on.
Whenever he comes back, he can stay there as if he had never left.
Except for one place.
Mu Yunxiao was checking and searching everywhere in front, just like a little dog patrolling its territory, while Bai Chi followed slowly behind with a smile on his lips.
Until they saw Mu Yunxiao standing in front of a door in the inner room on the second floor, hands on his hips, glaring angrily at the room, refusing to take a single step inside.
Bai Chi approached and stood beside him.
"It's Xiao Hei's room."
The room was very large, with the wall between it and the next room knocked down, taking up one-third of the entire second floor area.
The room is equipped with many cat trees, a five-story villa-style cat house, and various toys.
In short, it's a very, very nicely decorated cat room.
Mu Yunxiao snorted, clearly displeased.
Although this place used to be empty, he used to either play downstairs or in the room across the street, with Ah Chi's fitness area on one side and his childhood play area on the other.
Bai Chi pulled the person closer: "Didn't you have that cat bed delivered to you? Why are you still angry with yourself?"
Mu Yunxiao glared angrily, feigning ferocity: "Isn't it all because Xiao Hei can find you food!"
Bai Chi raised an eyebrow. These words made it sound like he, the president of the prestigious Bai Corporation, couldn't even afford to eat.
Mu Yunxiao realized it too, and then he glared at him with his phoenix eyes: "Achi, you wouldn't be doing this on purpose, would you!"
"Um?"
The topic jumped too quickly, and Bai Chi hadn't figured out what he was doing on purpose yet.
Mu Yunxiao pretended to be angry, poking Bai Chi's chest with his finger and deliberately getting closer to him.
"Are you deliberately not eating properly? Are you bored and want to get a cat, but you don't want to tell me, so you deliberately don't eat and pretend to let that little black cat find you snacks!"
Bai Chi was forced to take a step back, leaning against the door frame with nowhere to retreat. Facing the unreasonable Mu Yunxiao, he didn't feel angry. After Mu Yunxiao finished speaking, he grabbed the hand in front of his chest.
Young people really do have good appetites. He always finishes all the food I send him. In the two years we've been apart, he's actually gained a little weight.
That heartless brat! No matter how heartbroken he was, he still got a free meal, and now he's blaming him for raising a cat.
Fortunately, I didn't lose weight.
Bai Chi pinched his fingers and looked at him with amusement: "Why don't you say that I deliberately refused to eat, using a hunger strike to force my parents to agree to your return?"
Mu Yunxiao's eyes widened suddenly: "Really?"
Then, feeling sorry for you, she said, "How can you not eat? Your aunt and uncle always listen to you, don't they? Besides, if they don't want me to come back, can't I come back by myself?"
She got angry again as she spoke: "It's all your fault for arranging those people. If they hadn't been watching me every day, I would have come back long ago!"
Bai Chi was both amused and exasperated. How did the topic suddenly shift from Xiao Hei to him?
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. I won't let them restrict you anymore. I'll just follow you, okay?"
Too many people were eyeing Bai Chi, and many wanted him dead. They all knew that he valued Mu Yunxiao, and since they knew they couldn't do anything to Bai Chi, they turned their attention to Mu Yunxiao.
Some wanted to kill Mu Yunxiao, some wanted to seduce Mu Yunxiao, and some even wanted to kidnap him, all in an attempt to make Bai Chi lose his mind.
Fortunately, thanks to Bai Chi's tight protection, no danger has come near Mu Yunxiao so far.
As for the people placed around him, Mu Yunxiao knew about them, of course. He wasn't stupid; he knew that many people wanted to use him to threaten Achi.
So from childhood to adulthood, he has always cherished himself and resolutely avoided putting himself in any possible danger.
He doesn't care about bodyguards at all; he'd be worried if he didn't have any.
Upon hearing Bai Chi's promise, her eyes lit up: "Ah Chi, you said it yourself, you can't send me away like you did before!"
Towards the end, his cheerful tone turned slightly annoyed.
Clearly, the fear of being forced to leave still lingered in her heart.
Bai Chi felt a pang of heartache and reached out to pull the person into his arms: "I'm sorry, it won't happen again."
Then I felt a kiss on my neck, and Mu Yunxiao's voice rang out, his moist breath entering my ear.
"Achi, how are you going to make it up to me? I've really grown up, look, I'm even taller than you now!"
As he spoke, he gestured above their heads, and even carefully explained to ensure the truthfulness of his words.
"Unlike Achi, who won't eat properly without me watching over him, I eat a lot every day and also work out diligently."
As he spoke, he grabbed Bai Chi's waist with both hands. He must have really lost weight, because Mu Yunxiao's large hands could almost completely encircle him.
"So thin."
He also casually touched Bai Chi's flat stomach. Because he was looking down slightly, Bai Chi didn't see the innocent little kid in his eyes, whose eyes were now filled with strange light, clearly not thinking anything good.
Bai Chi simply nodded in agreement: "Yes, not bad, you have indeed grown taller."
He was genuinely satisfied. If Mu Yunxiao hadn't eaten and rested properly, he probably wouldn't have been able to last two years.
If Mu Yunxiao were like him, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist bringing the person back even after two days, let alone two.
Mu Yunxiao didn't care whether Bai Chi understood or not. He chuckled and nuzzled against Bai Chi's neck, forgetting all about continuing his patrol of the territory.
It wasn't until Xiao Hei jumped from the big tree outside the window into the second-floor room and barked at the two people hugging each other at the door of its room that Mu Yunxiao remembered something, and pulled Bai Chi away.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to snort at Xiao Hei, then proudly raised his chin and pulled Bai Chi to the third floor.
The way he looked at it was as if to say, "So what if Ah Chi keeps a cat?"
Ah Chi has only had cats for two years, but he's had him for seventeen years!
Even though he lived in the Mu family's house for two years, his food, clothing, housing, and even bodyguards were all arranged by A-Chi. How can it not be considered that A-Chi supported him?
Bai Chi looked at Mu Yunxiao, who was inexplicably grinning again, and shook his head. He had no idea what was going on in Mu Yunxiao's mind. He probably only cared about growing taller these past two years.
Bai Chi's eyes crinkled into crescents as he followed Mu Yunxiao's gaze throughout the manor, letting him lead him on a tour of every corner and bringing laughter and liveliness to every corner.
Sure enough, with Yunxiao's help, the manor was no longer as lifeless as before.
