Chapter 134: Even the Punishment Drink Wasn’t Consumed

Lu Xiaoxi opened her computer and began to complete the group assignment.

She could hear Li Mu opening and closing the door, he must have gone back to his room.

After a while, she still hadn’t seen Li Mu knock on the door to come in.

She thought Li Mu would shamelessly come to find her for a kiss and a hug, under the pretense of studying, and then stay in bed to take a nap together.

Li Mu was particularly well-behaved at noon.

Halfway through the assignment, Lu Xiaoxi felt sleepy, closed her computer, and suddenly flopped onto the bed, curling up with her puppy plush toy.

She always felt like something was missing.

Lu Xiaoxi rummaged through her bedside table, took out the sunny doll and the toy car, and placed them on the head of the puppy plush toy, along with a crumpled, tattered red origami crane.

At least it could make someone’s scent a bit stronger.

She had a beautiful nap in the afternoon.

In the next room, Li Mu had just completed his writing missions for the day.

Stretching, it was already four in the afternoon.

Today’s classes were relatively light, and he didn’t have the habit of taking a nap. Without Little Green Plum, he felt completely relaxed.

Lu Xiaoxi was definitely sleeping at this time, and even if he really wanted to be close to Lu Xiaoxi, he wouldn’t barge into her room at this moment.

He wondered if Lu Xiaoxi was comfortable sleeping alone, and if she thought about him shamelessly wanting to sleep together before going to bed.

Recently, the relationship between him and Lu Xiaoxi had been developing quite smoothly.

He had set quite a few small goals to become a perfect childhood sweetheart with Lu Xiaoxi.

In the blink of an eye, he had almost completed them all.

As for the remaining small goals… that was not something to think about right now.

Once all the small goals were truly completed, he and Lu Xiaoxi would be getting their marriage certificate.

Li Mu leaned on the desk, looking at the words he had just typed on the computer, and began to fantasize about life after getting the marriage certificate with Lu Xiaoxi.

Every day after work, going home with Lu Xiaoxi, cooking together, eating together, watching TV until bedtime, then sleeping soundly together, continuing to work the next day, and on weekends, staying at home with Lu Xiaoxi, being intimate, or going out to travel, and finally raising a pet that eats gold…

Just thinking about it made Li Mu feel immersed in it.

He must have saved the galaxy in his past life to have met Little Green Plum.

Since he had nothing to do, Li Mu sent a two-cent red envelope to the small group of his gaming trio, then tagged Lin Sheng and Old Yang, sending a message saying, “Come out to claim the huge red envelope.”

Soon, the two claimed the red envelope and sent Li Mu a bunch of random emoji stickers, expressing their deep gratitude for his one-cent red envelope.

Just when he was worried about not having any stickers to use, now he could stock up, so next time when Little Green Plum launched an emoji attack, he would also have some power to fight back.

In the small group of the gaming trio, messages usually only appeared when they were playing games. The records were all Lin Sheng and Old Yang tagging Li Mu. In the past, Li Mu would reply instantly, but recently, after being close to Little Green Plum for a long time, he usually took about ten minutes to reply with “No” or “You guys play.”

The aloof and cool Li Mu was tough and spoke little.

He thought these two would log in immediately, but Old Yang sent a photo from an amusement park, along with a message saying, “On a date.”

Lin Sheng quickly followed up with a photo of himself lying in the dormitory, along with a message saying, “Just finished, getting ready to sleep.”

Li Mu felt embarrassed.

He completely understood Old Yang going on a date since he had a girlfriend; but what was Lin Sheng doing?

Li Mu was shocked. Lin Sheng should be playing games, not doing anything else.

With no one to play games with, Li Mu truly had nothing to do.

Everyone has moments of idleness, and at certain moments, one can lose direction.

When there was something to do, one wanted to steal a moment of leisure; when truly idle, one wanted to find something to do. People are such contradictory beings, and so was Li Mu.

He still wanted to sleep with Little Green Plum.

Li Mu got up, put on his headphones, and started cleaning his room, then moved on to the living room and kitchen… After cleaning up, he would find Lu Xiaoxi to take credit.

At five in the afternoon.

Lu Xiaoxi did not linger in bed and stepped out of her room in her slippers.

The coffee table was already set with a baking tray, a meat platter, and prepared baby bok choy and drinks.

“The sun is coming out from the west,” Lu Xiaoxi complained loudly, took a sip of water to moisten her mouth, and sat down next to Li Mu, transferring all her weight onto him.

She loved it this way.

“Quick, praise me,” Li Mu, having a moment of conscience today, had done so much and needed some compliments to keep his motivation for next time.

“You are really amazing,” Lu Xiaoxi was not stingy with her praise.

She praised him, but it still felt a bit strange.

She had seen impressive things during the Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year, but it was the first time she had seen someone praised for doing housework.

Such uniqueness belonged only to Little Green Plum.

“Are you hungry?” Li Mu didn’t dwell on Lu Xiaoxi’s choice of words and naturally took her hand to knead and massage it.

Helping Lu Xiaoxi with her hand had become a part of their daily life.

“Are you hungry?”

“A bit, let’s eat.”

“Okay, I’ll go serve the rice.” Lu Xiaoxi withdrew her hand and got up to go to the kitchen.

The rice cooker was near the window, and when cooking rice, steam would rise, causing a layer of moisture to condense on the window, and looking at the bright glass, Lu Xiaoxi always had a bad premonition.

Opening the rice cooker, just as she had expected, Li Mu had washed the rice but forgot to cook it.

With a light sigh, she turned on the power; the rice would take a while to be ready.

“Where’s the rice?”

“Not cooked.”

“Impossible, I started cooking an hour ago. Is the rice cooker broken?”

“Cook? You didn’t even turn it on,” Lu Xiaoxi said irritably.

She pulled Li Mu’s hand over, placing it on her lap to knead and massage, but it felt quite ordinary.

Li Mu really liked to knead her hand; what was so good about it?

“Are you a hand fetishist?” Li Mu had never been treated like this before; his hand was gently massaged by the girl’s soft fingers, and his ears turned slightly red.

It felt a bit nice.

“You are the hand fetishist; I’m self-fetishist,” Lu Xiaoxi loved herself very much.

“You are also a Lu Xiaoxi fetishist? What a coincidence, I’m also a Lu Xiaoxi fetishist; our interests are surprisingly the same.”

“Hehehe, you are so shameless!” Lu Xiaoxi giggled, as girls often had low laugh points.

“What’s there to be ashamed of? Just speaking the truth,” Li Mu easily grasped the girl’s small hand, taking the initiative was very important, “Have you ever had a moment where you were obsessed with me?”

“You are a bit narcissistic and a bit greasy.”

“Don’t avoid it, quickly say it. If I don’t hear something satisfying, I’ll eat all the fish, all the grilled meat, and all the rice.”

“Okay, okay, I know you are a glutton. Let me think…”

Lu Xiaoxi lowered her head and really began to ponder.

What is the definition of an obsession?

An obsession is a kind of complex; for example, a hand fetish or a foot fetish is a special fondness for hands and feet.

Did she have a special fondness for Li Mu?

She always had.

She was obsessed with herself and also with Li Mu, who was her childhood sweetheart.

Yes, she was a childhood sweetheart fetishist!

“Have you thought about what to say? I advise you to think it through; if I’m not happy, you won’t have a good outcome!” Li Mu grinned like a little rascal, with a mischievous and bad tone.

But Lu Xiaoxi was not afraid at all.

“Maybe, I guess.”

“Maybe? I’ll give you another chance to reorganize your words. Do I need to tell you that those who know how to adapt are the wise?” Li Mu didn’t hear what he wanted, and he could give Lu Xiaoxi countless chances to reorganize her words.

“I won’t tell you; think for yourself!”

“Okay, okay, you are refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit.”

“I won’t drink the forfeit either… Ah, don’t scratch! It tickles! Haha!”
