Chapter 14 I Can't Help It
Mu Xu nuzzled his neck, hummed in a muffled voice, and said, "We had a traffic accident, so the traffic was stuck behind us. Otherwise, we would have been home by six."
Lin Jin said, "Thank you for your hard work."
The fear gradually faded away, and Mu Xu's heart rhythm slowly returned to normal, but then became chaotic again.
Because Lin Jin's hair was casually tied up at this time, with only a few messy strands hanging gently. Her fair and sensitive neck turned red a little bit under his rubbing, and she was as beautiful as a perfect peach.
Mu Xu's eyes gradually darkened, and when he reacted, his lips were already gently touching that red.
Mu Xu came back to his senses during the kiss, and almost couldn't help but move his tongue along his neck, all the way up, and uncontrollably sucked on his jade-like earlobe.
Lin Jin's body also froze. He didn't dare to move, allowing his fragile neck to be kissed intimately.
The two top students from University A now looked like confused and helpless children.
One doesn't know why he doesn't hide, and the other doesn't know why the other doesn't hide.
Perhaps it was because he had consumed most of his energy on the way back that Mu Xu was now confused.
He always felt that Lin Jin was indulging him without any bottom line.
Even if he did something a little more excessive now, Lin Jin would still obey him.
But he also felt that he had been secretly in love for many years and it was an illusion.
They had only been together for a few days, so why should Lin Jin indulge him?
Besides, Lin Jin has always put the overall situation first and is too lazy to argue with others. He didn't push him away, maybe just because he didn't want to embarrass him.
If he told the truth, what would happen if Lin Jin avoided him? Who could take care of him and make him give up the idea of suicide?
So Mu Xu's eyes dimmed and he pulled it as if nothing had happened.
He stood up and put some distance between them, but his hand was still on his waist. He changed the subject: "Mimosa?"
In the end, no one pointed out the barrier.
One of them pretended to be stupid and spoke, while the other followed the topic.
Lin Jin cried out, then came back to his senses. With his ears red, he turned around in a panic and said, "Yes!"
As he said this, he turned and walked towards the balcony, talking about the origin of mimosa as he walked.
He originally just wanted to say more to cover up the ambiguous moment just now, but as the night wind blew away the emotions and he loved mimosa, he became more and more excited as he talked.
Lin Jin showed the mimosa plant and said, "I went downstairs to take out the trash this afternoon and saw it on the lawn downstairs. It looked like the grass was weeded yesterday; a lot of it was dead, but it was the only one still alive. Every time I touched a leaf, it shrank. It was really interesting."
Lin Jin makes no secret of his love for mimosa.
Mu Xu waited until he finished speaking before saying, "Did you go downstairs to take out the trash today? How come our teacher Lin is so awesome?"
After Lin Jin was praised by him, the heat that had just dissipated with great difficulty showed signs of rising again.
He hummed and quickly changed the subject: "If you touch it, it will really be shy."
Although Mu Xu is a science guy, he doesn't always do things that disrupt the fun like Zheng Shu and his gang.
It's not about being shy, it's because there is a pulsatilla at the base of the petiole.
He raised his hand and touched the grass, watching the leaves shrink.
He chuckled and said, "It seems that this mimosa is a good child."
Lin Jin was amused and asked, "How can you tell it's well behaved?"
Mu Xu turned to look at him and said, "Those who can make our teacher Lin happy are all good children."
Lin Jin was staring at him intently, and he felt more and more uncomfortable today.
He raised his hand and touched his earlobe, reciprocating the gesture: "So, you are also a good child."
Mu Xu laughed softly, but couldn't help it. She pinched his cheek and said, "What do you want to eat? Teacher Mu will make it for you."
During this period, the two of them tacitly let Mu Xu prepare three meals a day.
It’s not that Lin Jin doesn’t like cooking or anything, but he has only used an induction cooker since he was a child. He doesn’t know how to use anything else in the kitchen, and he doesn’t even know how to turn on the gas.
Lin Jin originally wanted to confess that he couldn't cook, but Mu Xu seemed to know it and took on the cooking task every time. Occasionally, when he saw that he wanted to work, he would only assign him simple tasks like washing vegetables.
Later, Lin Jin thought about it and realized that maybe people who can’t cook have some characteristics that can be seen at a glance, so Mu Xu knew early on that he couldn’t cook.
Lin Jin followed Mu Xu into the kitchen, naturally took the lettuce and started picking it.
While picking, he said, "Mu Xu, when you have time, please teach me how to use gas and microwave ovens."
It’s not that he hasn’t thought about learning to cook by following the tutorials on his phone, but this is Mu Xu’s home kitchen after all.
If you operate it carelessly and something unexpected happens, such as burning the microwave or the gas, it will be terrible.
So he thought about it and decided to wait until Mu Xu was around before learning.
Mu Xu said yes and asked, "What dish do you want to make?"
The two chatted idly and couldn't stop.
After dinner, they both went to wash up.
Lin Jin came in first, so he washed faster.
When he came out to the living room, Mu Xu was still in the bathroom. As soon as he sat down, the phone on the table rang.
Lin Jin didn't need to look, he knew it was Mu Xu's phone just by listening to the ringtone.
He picked it up and knocked on the door of the shared bathroom.
In addition to each room having its own bathroom, there is also a shared one in Mu Xu's house.
For some reason, Mu Xu didn't like taking a shower in the master bedroom bathroom, and basically went to the public bathroom every time.
At first, Lin Jin thought that there was no bathroom in the master bedroom. Later, when he accidentally went in to take a look, he found that there was both a bathroom and a dressing room.
Lin Jin thought about it and thought it might be Mu Xu's personal habit.
Knock on the bathroom door.
Mu Xu turned off the shower head, and the sound of water suddenly disappeared. Then a deep voice sounded: "What's wrong?"
Lin Jin said, "Someone named Teacher Li called you."
Mu Xu was probably not convenient, so he said, "Teacher Lin, can you help me answer the phone? I said I'm busy at the moment."
Lin Jin replied "OK" and walked towards the living room while answering the call.
The moment the call was connected, a noisy sound suddenly rang out from the other end, including the sounds of drunkenness and clinking glasses.
Lin Jin guessed that it was probably in the restaurant.
Before Lin Jin could speak, a female voice came from the other side: "Hey, Teacher Mu, can you hear me? Do you want to come to the dinner? Everyone is here."
Then several voices echoed, both male and female.
Lin Jin subconsciously substituted the female voice for Teacher Li.
He said politely, "Sorry, Mu Xu is busy now. I'll ask him to get back to you later."
As soon as Lin Jin spoke, an eerie silence fell over the other side. Then, an uncontrollable female voice screamed, the decibel level so high that it almost broke Lin Jin's bones: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, are you the legendary beautiful woman that Mu Xu has been secretly in love with for more than ten years?!"
No wonder they reacted so strongly.
Ever since Mu Xu said he was married, they have been pestering him with gossip.
Originally, Mu Xu didn't pay much attention to others. Over the years, the time when he was most patient with them was when he talked about his wife in the group. Later, they fought a battle of numbers. When one person couldn't get anything out of him, they all came together.
After one wraps up, the next one wraps up.
Unity!
It's power!
After a series of operations, they finally collected a lot of information.
Male, handsome, gentle, kind, and shy.
