Chapter 169 Coriander
"Gu Jiu, don't you have a good relationship with him?"
What did Gu Jiu do to make Lin Feng, who seemed to have the best relationship with him on weekdays, run to the house of the person with whom he had the worst relationship in the middle of the night?
Lin Feng shook his head and said softly.
"No, I am very grateful that he let me go with you, but..."
Lin Feng's eyes were a little out of focus, as if he was distracted, and Mu Bai waited for him to speak.
"He comes to see me every night..."
Lin Feng's voice was a little hoarse, and he held the small porcelain bottle tightly in his palm with such force that his knuckles turned white, and his hands were shaking.
Mu Bai reached out and held his wrist. His wrist was very cold, but Mu Bai's palm was very hot. Lin Feng shuddered, loosened his hand, and came back to his senses.
At the beginning, Linfeng was indeed grateful to Gu Jiu.
But later, he felt that Gu Jiu was very strange. If you say that Gu Jiu had a good impression of him, but Gu Jiu's behavior was really too strange.
Sometimes he would get very close to Linfeng, and he also liked to smell the smell of Linfeng, showing an intoxicated expression. At the
beginning, Linfeng was very repulsive. He thought Gu Jiu could see his repulsion, but Gu Jiu did not restrain himself, but became even more intense.
Linfeng also mentioned it to Gu Jiu, but Gu Jiu turned a deaf ear and never considered Linfeng's feelings.
Later, he began to visit Linfeng's room late at night. At first, he knocked on the door and asked Linfeng if he was asleep, saying that he couldn't sleep.
Later, he didn't even knock on the door, but pushed it open and walked in, not caring what Linfeng was doing in the room.
As a result, it was inconvenient for Linfeng to change clothes later.
He had said everything he should have said, and asked Gu Jiu to go out, but Gu Jiu didn't listen, so Linfeng came to Mu Bai.
"So, why me?"
Mu Bai asked Linfeng, resting his head on his arm and looking at the ceiling. Linfeng only chuckled twice.
"Because I have the worst relationship with you."
"Aren't you afraid that I will do something to you?"
"No."
"Why not?"
Mu Bai really didn't understand. He didn't look kind on weekdays, so why was Linfeng so sure that he wouldn't do anything to him?
Just when he was puzzled, Linfeng explained.
"Because you have a good heart."
He just felt some rejection from Mu Bai, but he didn't feel disgust or dislike.
And as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. He was just gambling. He
was gambling on Mu Bai's kindness. He
was also gambling that Gu Jiu didn't dare to confront Mu Bai head-on.
Why didn't he seek Bai Qiu's help?
Because although Bai Qiu is a good person, he is gentle, and he can't compare to Gu Jiu in terms of boxing and kicking.
If Lin Feng really went to Bai Qiu, not only would he not escape from Gu Jiu, but he would also likely implicate Bai Qiu.
After thinking about it, Mu Bai is the best choice.
"What are you going to do after that?"
Gu Jiu's behavior was pure harassment. If he had found an ordinary person, he would have reported it to the authorities long ago. However, the authorities would not uphold justice for the demons, and Lin Feng would not be treated fairly.
"After we pass this place and reach the next town, I will leave."
There was no need to swallow his anger in order to blend in with the crowd. Since he could meet someone who accepted him, he could meet the next one.
Mu Bai just said "oh" lightly, and then no one spoke to each other. Mu Bai had no memory of when he fell asleep.
While he was sleeping, he suddenly felt something heavy on his body, pressing on his chest and legs. He frowned and opened his eyes dazedly.
As far as his eyes could see, there was a person's head. The hair was scattered, and some of it fell on his hands. It was a little itchy. He moved his hands, but his brain didn't react yet.
He blinked his eyes, and when he finally woke up a little, he remembered that Lin Feng slept in his room last night. He raised his head slightly to look at the bed.
No one was there.
Then the person on him should be Lin Feng.
He released his strength and fell back on the pillow. He raised his hand, wanting to wake Lin Feng up, but he didn't know where to start for a moment, and finally could only rub Lin Feng's head.
Lin Feng was not awake yet, and he stood up in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and looked at Mu Bai under him.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Bai's voice was a little hoarse.
"Get up."
Lin Feng was stunned, and then he realized that the postures of the two of them were wrong. He quickly got up and stood aside. He didn't remember when he rolled under the bed.
It was just that when he was dreaming last night, he dreamed that Gu Jiu came again. He subconsciously dodged for a moment, only to feel some pain in his body suddenly, and then bumped into a warm embrace.
The smell of that embrace was very familiar, but also very strange, as if he had smelled it somewhere.
Now that he saw Mu Bai, he remembered that it was the smell of Mu Bai, the smell of soapberry, and some fresh grass fragrance.
It was like the breeze blowing over the hills and across the vast grassland, not strong, but smelled good.
Lin Feng apologized, turned around and saw that the sun was already high outside, and sunlight shone through the window and fell on him.
He said goodbye to Mu Bai in a hurry, then opened the door like a thief, and stuck his head out to look outside. No one was there.
Then he quietly returned to his room.
Mu Bai watched him leave. When the door of the room was closed again by Lin Feng and the room was quiet again, he moved his fingers. They were a little numb.
It was because of Lin Feng's pressure last night.
He pursed his lips, got up, tidied the room, put away the mat again, and silently restored everything in the house to the appearance of a person living there.
Then he called for water to wash up and went downstairs.
When he went downstairs, Bai Qiu and Gu Jiu were already sitting downstairs.
Bai Qiu rested his elbows on the table, supported his head and dozed off, his head nodding.
Gu Jiu was different. His face was a little gloomy, not as gentle as before, and his eyes were fixed on Mu Bai.
The only common feature of the three people sitting together was that they all had a pair of panda eyes.
Bai Qiu's head fell on the table with a "bang". It hurt just to look at it. He rubbed his head, grimacing in pain, and then he noticed that Mu Bai was here.
Naturally, he also noticed the dark blue under Mu Bai's eyes, but compared to theirs, the dark blue under Mu Bai's eyes was much lighter.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Mu Bai pulled out his chopsticks, pursed his lips and said "hmm". "
I had a dream."
"What dream?"
"Sleep paralysis."
When he said this, Lin Feng happened to come down. Hearing him say this, he coughed twice a little embarrassedly, attracting the attention of the three people.
Mu Bai just raised his eyes to look at him, then retracted his gaze. Bai Qiu saw that he seemed to be relieved.
"Linfeng, where were you last night? Gu Jiu and I looked for you all night~"
"Sorry, I had some personal matters, so I didn't say hello to you."
Linfeng casually passed over what happened last night, and in order to apologize to Bai Qiu and the others, he paid for all the meals for today.
Linfeng ordered a bowl of noodles. Bai Qiu and the others' were all served. Linfeng ordered a little late, so he had to wait a little longer. He looked up and saw Mu Bai, who was sitting opposite him, picking and choosing.
He picked out the green leaves one by one and put them in a small bowl on the side. Linfeng recognized that it was coriander.
Maybe it was because he didn't sleep well last night. For some reason, Mu Bai just felt a little irritable in his heart, so he didn't like anything. He couldn't choose all the corianders, which made him even more irritable.
His lips were pursed tighter and tighter, and his brows were wrinkled deeper and deeper. Suddenly, a bowl of noodles without coriander was placed in front of him. He raised his eyes and saw Lin Feng.
"You can eat this bowl."
"No need."
Mu Bai retracted his gaze. Seeing his look, Lin Feng sighed.
"Don't be stupid..."
Before he finished speaking, a bowl of noodles with coriander was pushed in front of him, and the bowl without coriander was taken by Mu Bai, mixed and ate.
Lin Feng was still a little confused, wondering what made Mu Bai suddenly change his mind.
Bai Qiu beside him was stunned. Why did he feel that Mu Bai was a little weird?
Gu Jiu's eyes became deeper.
On the way, Lin Feng was obviously walking towards Bai Qiu and Mu Bai, talking to Bai Qiu. Mu Bai rarely paid attention to him, but occasionally responded with one or two words.
Bai Qiu asked Mu Bai with a smile.
"Have you become softer in your attitude towards Lin Feng?"
Mu Bai was stunned, glanced at Lin Feng, met a pair of beautiful and gentle eyes, and glanced at Bai Qiu again.
"Nonsense."
After saying that, he took two quick steps to the front, which made Bai Qiu laugh, and Lin Feng also curled the corners of his lips beside him.
