Chapter 27 Who is my wife?
Lin Jinying: "I wrote a lot again today..."
Before he could even utter the word "me", he understood what Mu Xu meant. His face instantly became hot and red. "Then... take a cold shower."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Xu suddenly sneezed.
Lin Jin instantly became anxious: "Cold?"
Mu Xu answered irrelevantly, saying stubbornly and aggrievedly, "Wife, my hand hurts."
Lin Jin's face was so red that he could cook. He froze in place, at a loss as to what to do.
Mu Xu slowly leaned over and hugged him, gently grasping Lin Jin's hand, and said, "It hurts."
He felt very uncomfortable, but he was still given room to refuse.
He held Lin Jin's hand and squeezed it gently. If Lin Jin didn't like it, he could break free by just moving his hand.
The temperature in the entrance hall rises.
Lin Jin was silent for a moment, until Mu Xu regretted it so much that he wanted to apologize and backed away.
Lin Jin sighed and said, "Mu Xu, can we go into the bathroom?"
Lin Jin's skills are terrible.
He was originally a man of few desires, and coupled with his bad mood, he had very few opportunities to relieve himself in the past twenty years.
…
Mu Xu's breathing became a mess as he praised him, "How come you are so amazing, our baby?"
Lin Jin felt so hot from the praise that he felt like a shrimp in a hot pot, soaking in the boiling pot and his whole body was red.
…
The slightly taller man had a dangerous look in his eyes as he stared at the pink, slender, white neck so close to him. He licked his fangs.
Then he opened his mouth and bit down.
"Um...Mu Xu, it hurts a little."
As expected, it caused the person in his arms to shudder.
Hearing this, Mu Xu licked the wound he had bitten soothingly, and said, knowing how to reciprocate, "Wife, can I help you too?"
…
"No, thanks." Lin Jin refused.
Before he could speak, Lin Jin pushed him out and locked the door: "Go take a shower first."
Mu Xu rarely took a shower in the bathroom of the master bedroom. When he came out, Lin Jin was still in the public bathroom. There was no sound of water. It seemed that he had finished taking a shower, but he refused to come out for a long time.
Mu Xu was worried that something had happened to someone, so he knocked on the door.
After several seconds, Lin Jin spoke awkwardly: "...I didn't bring any clothes."
Mu Xu chuckled, packed a set of Lin Jin's pajamas and handed them in, and then he came out. Perhaps because he had been in the bathroom for too long or because he was too dry, his face and the tips of his ears were still red and pink.
Even when his eyelids were slightly raised, Mu Xu's throat still felt dry.
He quickly turned his gaze away and went straight into the house to prepare hot water for Lin Jin to soak his feet.
Seeing Lin Jin put his feet into the bucket, she sat down next to him and massaged his hands a little bit.
Lin Jin had just put in a lot of effort, and even though Mu Xu was holding his hand tightly, his hand was still shaking.
Mu Xu was very flexible. She pressed his hand distressedly and said, "Wife, I'm sorry."
After hearing this name so many times that night, Lin Jin got used to it. He hummed and let Mu Xu call him that.
Lin Jin said helplessly: "Mu Xu, don't drink anymore in the future."
"Um."
Lin Jin didn't expect that Mu Xu, who was usually so well-behaved and polite, would lose control so much after drinking, kissing and biting. Fortunately, he was a boy. If it was a girl, what he did would be considered indecent.
Lin Jin lectured him, "From now on, whether you're a man or a woman, you're not allowed to do these things casually. Do you understand?"
"Yeah, I get it, wife."
Lin Jin sighed, "Mu Xu."
Mu Xu raised his eyes to look at him.
Lin Jin suggested: "Have you been holding it in for too long? Why don't you find someone who's more stable? You can't always ask others for help."
He had just thought about it for a long time and felt that although Mu Xu's current loss of control was due to drunkenness, it was impossible for such a calm person to lose control like this.
He kept stroking it while taking a shower. He always felt that Mu Xu had been single for too long, so he had endured it for too long and finally lost control.
That's why I made this suggestion, but as soon as I said it, I regretted it.
He looked at his palms with bulging veins, and he seemed to feel unhappy again when he thought that these hands were being used to press others.
It was just like when he heard Mu Xu asking him to act in the car.
Feeling depressed.
But he didn't know why. He was not a very possessive person. Even towards Fu Yigu, who had been with him from childhood to college, he was not so overbearing.
Lin Jin, who was as blank as a sheet of paper, felt that he was even more abnormal.
He was so caught up in his own confusion that he didn't notice that when he said this, sadness instantly filled Mu Xu's eyes.
He looked at the teeth marks on Lin Jin's neck, closed his eyes, opened them again, and asked pleadingly, "Can I not look for you?"
"Why not?"
"If I found it, would you still want me?"
Lin Jin had never thought about this question, but he knew very well what he would do.
So he shook his head and said, "If you find it, we need to get a divorce. Mu Xu, being entangled is too much for your partner. You can't do this kind of thing, understand? Including the things between us, you should also explain it clearly to others before pursuing them."
He said a lot, but Mu Xu only heard the word "divorce".
The hand that was holding Lin Jin stopped moving instantly, and tears fell directly on Lin Jin's wrist.
Lin Jin was so scared that he dared not say a word. He carefully held his cheek and asked, "Why are you crying? I won't push you anymore, okay? I'm sorry. I knew you didn't like others pushing you to get married, but I still interfered with your relationship."
Mu Xu hugged him and asked, "Wife, if I like you, do we have to get divorced too?"
Lin Jin suddenly froze.
He was speechless, his heart was beating strangely, and his head seemed to be filled with paste and in a mess.
He murmured: "Mu Xu, who is your wife?"
"My wife is you."
"Mu Xu, tell me your name."
"Will you still want me if I tell you?"
Lin Jin said softly, "I don't know, you can try."
He himself really didn't know, he hadn't thought about it. Based on past experience, he would definitely refuse directly.
But he did too many strange things with Mu Xu, so even he himself couldn't understand his own feelings.
He didn't know if he would accept him instinctively like before.
Mu Xu asked: "Will you reject me?"
Lin Jin said truthfully, "Maybe."
He knew that he was a little slow in emotions, including Fu Yigu's feelings for him before. He only discovered it when Fu Yigu confessed to him and realized that he didn't like Fu Yigu.
So he didn't know what his feelings for Mu Xu were.
Maybe he will only know after Mu Xu tells him.
Might accept.
It is also possible that she rejected him like she rejected Fu Yigu, but the probability should be very small.
"Wife." Mu Xu suddenly said, "I was just teasing you."
"...Yeah?"
Lin Jin blinked, not knowing where the empty space was.
"Yeah." Mu Xu said, "Because you asked me to find a partner, I was so sad, so I wanted to tease you and ask you to stop talking about this topic."
Lin Jin suddenly realized.
Yes, Mu Xu committed suicide on the bridge because he was being pressured into getting married. Pressing him to find a partner was like rubbing salt into his wounds.
He pulled away a little, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "I'm sorry, I won't do it again."
Mu Xu let him wipe it and responded, "I won't confess my feelings anymore. I'm not so confident anymore. Honey, please don't leave me."
Lin Jin chuckled, "You need to be confident. Are you still drunk?"
There's no logic in what he says.
"Um."
"How about blowing your hair dry and drinking something to sober up?"
After taking a shower, Mu Xu wiped his hair a few times and came out. Although his hair was not wet, it still made Lin Jin's ears and neck wet.
He responded and asked softly, "Wife, are your feet feeling better?"
"Um."
Mu Xu heard the response and looked at Lin Jin's white feet without moving.
Seeing that the person was in a daze, Lin Jin said, "Blow dry your hair first."
Mu Xu responded again and walked towards the bathroom. He came out after a while. He squatted beside Lin Jin, took out his feet with a towel and wiped them clean, then carried the basin into the bathroom.
After washing his hands, he plugged in the hair dryer, looked at the thing in his hand for a while, released his fingers that were about to turn on the switch, and raised his hand to unplug the hair dryer.
When he got to the living room, he froze in his tracks, seemingly drunk and dazed: "Wife, how do I use the hair dryer?"
Lin Jin was amused by his question and sighed, "How much did you drink?"
Then he stood up and took the man to the bathroom, pulled a chair over for him to sit down, plugged in the hair dryer and wanted to help him blow dry his hair.
Mu Xu raised his hand and held it, wanting to do it himself: "Wife, are your hands sore?"
Lin Jin took his hand away: "It doesn't hurt, I can do it."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xu put down her hands, letting those slender and beautiful hands gently stroke her hair, and squinted her eyes comfortably.
He looked at the two people in the mirror and suddenly wanted to say something, but he held back.
She just quietly looked at Lin Jin in the mirror, sniffing her own clothes from time to time.
Lin Jin smiled.
Lin Jin leaned over to Mu Xu's shoulder and sniffed, saying, "Hmm, no smell of smoke, no smell of alcohol, very fragrant."
A lot of praise.
Mu Xu's ears suddenly turned red, and he said, "I washed it very clean, even washed my hair twice."
"Um."
Mu Xu paused and said, "I also brushed my teeth."
Lin Jin didn't notice this.
He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered the meal he had cooked. Mu Xu said in the afternoon that he wanted to have it as a midnight snack, so he asked, "Are you still having it for midnight snack?"
Mu Xu didn't seem very satisfied with this reaction, but still nodded: "Eat it, it's mine."
After he finished speaking, he was silent for a long time and his talking frequency dropped sharply. I don’t know what made him unhappy.
The only thing I said throughout the evening was a few more words of praise for the food, and a good night before going to bed.
At first, Lin Jin thought that Mu Xu was tired, so he spoke less.
But as he lay there, he felt something was wrong. After all, even if Mu Xu was tired, his tone would not be so flat and low, but soft.
The next morning, confused Lin Jin got up early and stopped Mu Xu who was about to go to work.
Asked seriously: "Mu Xu, you seemed unhappy after you brushed your teeth last night."
Mu Xu paused suddenly, her eyes flickering across his rosy lips, her Adam's apple moving as she said, "No, I'm tired and want to sleep."
