MTL - Let Me Ruffle Your Fur a Little-Chapter 22 Don't bully, okay?

Not long after, Mu Muer started yawning, her energy was obviously not concentrated, and her eyelids began to droop.

Snow leopard is not snow leopard, we can talk about it later, it is not an important matter anyway.

Bai Yao got up, and stretched out his hand for the boy sitting on the ground to hold, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go to bed."

He personally sent Mu Muer back to the small utility room, watched him get into the quilt, gently arched against the wall, and tucked the quilt up for himself.

In summer, the weather was sweltering, and what Bai Yao gave him was a thin summer quilt, which was only a thin layer on his body. He turned around and was about to leave, but hesitated again. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Will it be cold to sleep? Do you want to add another quilt?"

Mu Muer's eyes were wide open in the darkness, and she whispered, "It's not cold, it's warm."

Bai Yao nodded, but looking at the thin layer of quilt under Mu Mu'er, he felt inexplicably guilty, and felt a layer of unbearable emotion.

Even if it's not cold in summer, sleeping on the ground will definitely make you panic.

He subconsciously thought about whether he should buy a bed for Mu Muer, and then suddenly remembered that since when, he seemed to have naturally accepted the boy to live in his home.

Bai Yao tightened his hand on the doorknob, and thought about it seriously.

After all, a boy is not a pet, and it doesn't mean that he can keep it casually. Raising a sea otter is definitely different from letting a boy live in your own home, but with Mu Muer's current situation, there is no place to send him.

It is risky to let him be in any human place. If he is not careful, he may turn back into a sea otter. If he is not scared to death, he must be locked up for research.

not to mention…

Thinking of sending Mu Mu'er away, Bai Yao inexplicably felt a little uneasy, and a feeling similar to reluctance emerged.

He stood at the door hesitating, looked at the boy on the floor who was huddled up with his eyes closed and ready to sleep, and softly called his name: "Mu'er."

When Mu Muer heard Bai Yao calling him, she opened her eyes, blinked slowly, raised her head to look at him, like a puppy seeing a flying saucer.

"Do you have any family?"

Mu Mu'er didn't answer for a long time, and finally he turned over, pulled the quilt under his chin, and then spoke slowly, in a voice so soft that it was almost inaudible: "...Brother."

Bai Yao didn't expect this answer, his whole body froze, and his breathing seemed to be a little faster, because he couldn't explain why.

He took back his hand on the doorknob, and continued to ask Mu Muer: "Then do you know where he is? Would you like to find him? Also, does he... know you are here?"

Bai Yao asked a lot, and Mu Muer showed a dazed and disappointed expression again, and didn't answer for a long time, as if she didn't understand at all.

He shook his head very slowly, "Brother is angry, ignore Mu'er."

After finishing speaking, Mu Muer paused for a long time, and then faltered for a while before saying, "Head, headache."

The corners of the boy's mouth drooped, and there was a little mist in his eyes. He sniffed lightly, and shrank back a little under the quilt.

Bai Yao nodded and lowered his voice: "Go to bed first, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Just as he was about to close the door, he heard a small "hmm~" from behind, with a slight upturn at the end, as if he was asking some question.

Bai Yao stopped in his tracks, turned around and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Mu Muer opened her mouth, but didn't speak, thought for a while and then closed it shyly, obediently waiting for something.

Seeing his actions, Bai Yao remembered that he hadn't told him his name yet, so he pursed his lips and said, "My name is Bai Yao."

Mu Muer immediately shouted: "Yao Yao."

"En." Bai Yao responded. goblin

"Yao Yao."

"Well, I heard you."

"Yao Yao."

"...Well, sleep."

"Yaoyao~" Mu Muer couldn't hold back and called out for the last time.

"...Yaoyao went to sleep."

This time, when Mu Muer sneaked into his room in the middle of the night, Bai Yao had already woken up. He has not fallen asleep at all since he lay down, and has been in a state of half awake and half asleep. Thinking of the boy in the next room, he feels a little irritable.

So when the door of the utility room opened, Bai Yao woke up instantly, his hearing was good, and he could hear Mu Muer's very light footsteps on the floor very clearly.

He glanced at the watch by the bed, it was just after one o'clock in the morning.

After a few seconds, the door of his room was pushed open, and Mu Muer's furry head poked in. He stood at the door for a while, then quietly entered the room, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

For some reason, probably because he was afraid of scaring him, Bai Yao didn't open his eyes, but pretended to be asleep, wanting to see what the boy would do.

The weather was too hot, and it was uncomfortable to cover it with a thin layer of quilt, so Bai Yao didn't cover it. Not long after, the bed under him sank a little, and then a warm body came up and lay down beside him, very close.

Mu Mu'er's hand was soft, and she carefully stuffed it into Bai Yao's palm, and then held it tightly, as if she was rubbing her face against it.

Bai Yao tensed up for a moment, not daring to move at all, for fear of scaring the boy beside him.

When he quietly opened his eyes, he just saw Mu'er rubbing against him, finding a comfortable position and just about to close his eyes and go to sleep.

The two looked at each other, and Bai Yao saw Mu Muer's eyes widen.

The boy trembled violently all over, let out a small exclamation, pulled his hand out of Bai Yao's palm, curled up into a small ball on the bed, covered his head with his arms, and trembled all over.

"Don't hit... don't hit, Mu'er." He muttered in a low voice, forcing out an uncontrollable sob from his throat.

Bai Yao got up quickly, and first turned on the lamp on the bedside table, so as not to shake Mu Mu'er, he moved his body to block the most dazzling light.

Seeing that he was still trembling slightly, Bai Yao instinctively wanted to touch his back to comfort him, but felt that he should not touch him without authorization, so he withdrew his outstretched hand and asked softly, "Why are you Think I'm going to hit you?"

Mu Mu'er almost shrunk into a ball, covered her ears with her arms, and didn't dare to move, as if she didn't hear at all.

Bai Yao was at a loss, he was fine a second ago, why is it like this now. He thought for a while, and in the end he gently touched Mu Muer's back, rubbed him, and tried to make him relax a bit.

Mu Muer spoke quickly after Bai Yao met him, as if she was afraid of what Bai Yao would do to him if she didn't answer.

"Chasing...biting."

"It hurts, it hurts."

"Mu'er is good, very good." He took a breath, and begged humbly in a discussing tone, "Don't bully me, okay?"

These three words made Bai Yao feel a sudden pain in his heart, as if being strangled by a thorn with blunt thorns, there was no bleeding, but it left a piercing pain.

He didn't understand what Mu Muer meant, and wanted to ask, but the boy peeked at him timidly, then, as if to satisfy him, he tilted his body to the side in a daze, and lay stiffly on the bed. Lie down.

"Don't fight, Mu'er, Mu'er is going to sleep now." He muttered softly, but he was obviously still afraid, even though he closed his eyes, he was still awake.

Bai Yao waited for a while, he really wanted to reach out and hug the boy, but in the end he just held his hand hesitantly.

"Shh, it's okay, Yaoyao won't hit Mu'er."

Mu Muer's palms were covered with sweat, she was a little cold, and her fingers were stiff. Bai Yao held it tightly with both hands, trying to bring him some warmth.

"Look, Mu'er, Yaoyao is holding your hand." These words had some effect, Mu Muer looked down, then gradually calmed down, looking at Bai Yao's eyes and blinking slowly.

Bai Yao pulled up a bit of the quilt to cover both of them a bit, then tightened Mu Mu'er's hand, and stroked the back of his hand with his thumb.

After a long time, Mu Muer relaxed beside him bit by bit, and finally relaxed all over.

Bai Yao raised his hand slowly, and after seeing that Mu Muer didn't shrink back, he gently stroked his eyelids with his palm, and said in a low voice, "Good night."

Mu Muer was about to fall asleep, she closed her eyes and moaned: "...Ann."

After he fell asleep, Bai Yao didn't feel sleepy for a long time, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Bai Yao was curious about everything about Mu Muer, and wanted to know everything, but he vaguely felt that the boy would not tell him. His life experience seems to be not that simple, the injuries on his body, the way he protects food, and the reaction just now...

Mu Mu'er turned over in her sleep, and even though she was asleep, she still subconsciously got closer to Bai Yao, leaning against him without disliking the heat.

Like a child, he started kicking off the quilt as soon as he fell asleep, and kicked the quilt off the two of them with one kick, and snorted proudly, with a confused nasal sound.

Bai Yao had no choice but to pull up the quilt again, fearing that the boy would be too hot and at the same time afraid that he would catch a cold, so he only put it on his lap.

He thought he would keep his eyes open until dawn, but he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

Bai Yao slept soundly that night and never woke up once.
