Chapter 81: Just Lick Me

At the end of October, the weather had rarely been hot enough to make people sweat.

Those who couldn’t stand the cold had already put on their light jackets to keep warm, while those who could withstand the cold weren’t cold enough to need to wear jackets.

Of course, Li Mu could still wear a short-sleeved shirt and shorts; as long as the temperature didn’t drop below fifteen degrees, he felt there was nothing wrong with dressing like that.

However, under Lu Xiaoxi’s strong insistence, he still changed into a long-sleeved shirt paired with sports pants.

With a youthful outfit, Li Mu was already quite good-looking, and most of the girls passing by would sneak a glance at him.

Li Mu didn’t notice this, but Lu Xiaoxi did.

Lu Xiaoxi walked up to him, looked up at him, and thought, this guy is so handsome; if I don’t stick with him, other girls will definitely ask for his WeChat.

Just like when he first came to school, he didn’t know how many girls had sent him friend requests on WeChat.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxi felt a bit angry and slapped Li Mu’s back from behind, making a loud sound.

Li Mu glanced at her, “What are you doing?”

“Nothing, just wanted to hit you.”

“This is school; don’t go crazy.” Li Mu’s mouth twitched.

“Just hitting you, just hitting you.” Lu Xiaoxi slapped him again.

“Are you getting greedy? If you keep this up, I won’t help you carry your laptop bag later.”

“No way, you have to help me carry it.” Lu Xiaoxi stopped hitting him; she really enjoyed having someone help her carry her laptop bag.

It was as if someone was specially serving her.

Lu Xiaoxi recalled a video she had seen before, which gave a detailed definition of a “lick dog.”

A lick dog is someone who sacrifices their dignity to please someone else without expecting any return.

In the current situation, it seemed like Li Mu was trying to please her and was putting in effort for her.

Did she give Li Mu anything in return?

Holding hands, touching faces, and rubbing calves—did that count as a return?

Lu Xiaoxi felt a bit guilty; could it be that Li Mu was seen as her lick dog in the eyes of outsiders?

Lick dogs are considered the lowest existence among boys and are looked down upon by them.

“Li Mu…” Looking around, Lu Xiaoxi hooked Li Mu’s shirt corner and pulled him.

“What now?”

“Come a bit closer… are you my lick dog?”

“Ah?” Li Mu’s expression was strange, and his eyes widened.

How did they end up talking about lick dogs while walking? Did he really look like a lick dog?

“Why do you say that?”

“Because you often help me carry things, and I have never helped you carry anything.”

“That’s not true; if you help me tidy up my room, wouldn’t that make you my lick dog? No, it should be lick cat, no, it should be lick pig.” Li Mu held two laptop bags in one hand and used his fingertip to scratch the soft and smooth face of the little girl.

“What lick pig? I’m just helping you!”

“Then that’s fine; I’m just helping you too.”

“Then you’re not my lick dog.”

“That doesn’t count; we’re so familiar with each other.” Li Mu hid a smile at the corner of his mouth and suddenly said, “What, do you want me to be your lick dog?”

Lu Xiaoxi shook her head vigorously, “Being a lick dog would make you looked down upon by other boys; then you’d be isolated.”

“I can secretly be your lick dog; if others don’t know, then it’s fine.”

Li Mu leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear.

It was early in the morning, and Lu Xiaoxi had set her alarm late. The two planned to have a simple meal after finishing a class. When Li Mu spoke, his breath smelled like toothpaste.

Perhaps it was because Li Mu’s warm breath hit her face, Lu Xiaoxi’s cheeks slowly turned pink.

“Can… can I?” Lu Xiaoxi turned her head and replied softly.

Li Mu had always been good to her, always accompanying her. If, if it were possible, it seemed like it wouldn’t be bad.

“Just think about it in your dreams; you want me to be your lick dog? It’s only morning, and you’re already daydreaming?” Li Mu mercilessly interrupted her little fantasy of someone being a lick dog.

“Why not?”

“Do you really have that intention?”

“Anyway, you can’t lick anyone else.” Lu Xiaoxi lowered her head, not daring to look at Li Mu.

She admitted that for a moment, her heart fluttered.

If Li Mu really licked her, she probably wouldn’t be able to refuse, or she would be the kind who couldn’t hold out for long before being licked by Li Mu.

Did she also have a bad woman attribute??

“When have I ever licked anyone else? No, when did I give you the impression that I’m a lick dog?”

“You’re not now, but who knows about the future? Anyway, you can’t lick anyone else.”

“Okay, okay, okay, if I’m going to lick, I’ll lick you first, is that alright?”

Li Mu didn’t dare to hold her hand at school; he would only touch her or pinch her face when there were fewer people around.

As they got closer to the teaching building, he had no chance anymore.

His heart was itching.

“It would be best if no one licked anyone; if someone has to lick… just lick me…” Lu Xiaoxi’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, and by the end, even Li Mu couldn’t hear her.

“What did you say?”

“I said you’re a big lick pig!” Lu Xiaoxi quickly walked ahead.

Li Mu had no choice but to hurry after the little girl; no matter how he asked, Lu Xiaoxi ignored him.

At that moment, it felt a bit like being persistently ignored by a goddess he loved.

If the target was Lu Xiaoxi, it didn’t seem impossible?

He dismissed his own thoughts.

Whether he would become a lick dog was one thing; Lu Xiaoxi could never be the one he licked.

Lu Xiaoxi had never been someone who liked to take.

He put in effort for her, and she would return it to him.

“Why are you running so fast? Do you need to pee?”

“You need to pee! Your kidneys are bad; you’re weak; you go to the bathroom every two hours!” Lu Xiaoxi’s ears turned a bit red, and he couldn’t tell if it was from anger or something else.

“Are you on fire or did you eat explosives?” Li Mu didn’t know what he had done to provoke her. There was still so much time; it was early in the morning, and they should walk around the campus more to enjoy the atmosphere instead of rushing to sit in the classroom.

“I ate two pounds of explosives and want to blow you to ashes!” Lu Xiaoxi huffed, sulking.

The first class was English, which didn’t require a computer.

Lu Xiaoxi sat in the front row, studying hard with a few girls she knew; Li Mu ran to the back row to sit with Lin Sheng and Old Yang.

Li Mu got along well with these two; online, they were a gaming team, and offline, they were classmates, but he rarely sat with them.

After all, he was supposed to sit with his little childhood sweetheart, and they would only be separated for this English class.

“Brother Mu, why did you come to the back?” Lin Sheng spoke first. Ever since the last time he talked with Old Yang, he had been suspicious that Li Mu and Lu Xiaoxi were in a relationship.

If that were true, he would be the only one in their gaming team without a partner.

He couldn’t be the only one single; that was the last dignity and stubbornness of a single dog.

Being single together was like being brothers from different parents; if someone had a partner? Sorry, not familiar.

“Not welcome? Then I’m leaving.” Since class hadn’t started yet, even if the teacher had arrived, they could still move around freely; college didn’t restrict these things at all.

“Don’t, let’s play games.”

“What can you play in class? That’s disrespectful to the teacher.” Li Mu said with righteous indignation.

“Don’t you have any self-awareness about how you behave in class?”

“Uh, heh heh, I don’t really want to play right now.” Li Mu changed his expression, “Didn’t you sit in the back and listen attentively before? Why are you playing games now?”

“Brother Mu, people change… I used to…” Lin Sheng said earnestly.

Old Yang interrupted Lin Sheng’s lengthy speech, “Let me translate for you: he couldn’t hold on anymore; games are more fun.”

“Come on, don’t ruin the fun!”

Li Mu looked at these two clowns and joined them.

He wasn’t very good at English and had forgotten most of it.

But Lu Xiaoxi was good at it.

Having a childhood sweetheart who could speak English at home, if he didn’t know something, he could just ask her; he could even cling to her for the exam.

Isn’t that better than hiring a tutor?
