If Yan Shengchao hadn't missed Yi Mu so much after returning from the polar regions and wanted to secretly come back to see him before going back to Xuanmen to report, he would never have known that his own younger brother and his beloved were having an affair.
He didn't doubt that Yi Mu would betray their relationship, but he had little trust in Yan Shengzhou, who had always been eccentric.
He had even considered killing someone, but now he wanted to have a chat with Yan Shengzhou about life.
But suddenly, he sensed Yi Mu's panic.
About two years ago, Yan Shengchao placed the Heart-Connecting Gu on Yi Mu.
This is a kind of spirit insect; it won't harm people.
People who possess the Heart-to-Heart Gu can sense each other's emotional changes. The closer they are, the more subtle changes they can sense.
If you are far apart, you can only sense each other when your emotions are fluctuating significantly.
Yan Shengchao didn't have time to ask Yan Sheng about the progress of Yan Shengzhou and Yi Mu's relationship.
He followed Yi Mu's scent to the fox clan's territory, and Yi Mu was just a hair's breadth away from falling into the sea of fire.
After Yan Shengchao carried Yi Mu down the mountain, the fire on the mountain had already been extinguished.
A group of people gathered at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the mountain with surprise, muttering to themselves.
"That must be a dragon, a dark, black thing. It's even spitting water. This mountain is amazing; it managed to put out such a huge fire. I must go to the mountain to pray tomorrow."
"I find this strange. Such a big fire was extinguished in less than ten minutes. It must be haunted by evil spirits."
"Tch, you're always so suspicious. There's nothing that you don't find strange. You're so gloomy, you see everything as ominous."
"You old woman, what do you know? I went into those mountains when I was young, it's really eerie!"
Yan Shengchao carried Yi Mu back to the hotel. The dozing hotel owner stared at the two of them with wide eyes.
When did you leave?
He stood guard at the door the whole time, but didn't see a single fly. The outside was in complete chaos, and he had no idea what the two of them were doing outside.
Yan Shengchao knew that the boss had mistaken him for Yan Shengzhou, so he simply went along with it.
He glanced down at Yi Mu and gave his boss a knowing smile.
"He wanted to go out and play, so we climbed out the window."
The boss's gaze fell on them, looking them over twice before revealing a knowing, somewhat lewd smile.
"Young people should be careful. It's dirty and chaotic outside. It's safer to play in the hotel. Hurry up and go upstairs."
Yi Mu understood the subtext of those words, and blushed from head to toe, but dared not question Yan Shengchao about why he said that.
In fact, he is very uneasy right now.
Yi Mu wondered if Yan Shengchao knew about his affair with Yan Shengzhou. Given the man's personality, if he found out he had been cuckolded, he might go on a killing spree.
Yan Shengchao carried this big man as if he were a light piece of clothing, his steps steady as he walked uphill.
The closer he got to the room, the more panicked Emu became.
Yan Shengchao was incredibly resourceful; without asking Yi Mu, he stood precisely in front of their room.
"Open the door," Yan Shengchao said.
Yi Mu left in a hurry and didn't have his keys on him. He looked at the man's perfectly shaped chin and said softly, "I didn't bring my keys."
Yan Shengchao glanced at him, and Yi Mu recognized that look in his eyes.
In the past, he was careless and always left things behind, and Yan Shengchao would look at him with this "I really can't do anything with you" look.
As Yi Mu was reminiscing about the past, a muffled thud was heard as the door was violently kicked open.
Yi Mu was startled, then heard Yan Shengchao lower his head and gently whisper in his ear, "It's okay, there's always a way to get in, right?"
The sheep was stiff all over, like a frightened little animal, looking pitiful.
