Chapter 142: Sister Lu Xiaoxi?

Li Mu’s nap was quite mysterious.

Without Lu Xiaoxi, he would choose to play games to kill time during lunch.

With Lu Xiaoxi around, sorry, he preferred to take a nap.

He referred to this nap as the “Little Green Plum Superposition State Nap.”

Lu Xiaoxi could sleep very soundly; even if you kissed her twice, she might not wake up.

Li Mu woke up early; he quietly climbed out of bed after just a few minutes of watching Lu Xiaoxi’s sleeping face and took his computer out of the hall.

Today’s writing mission began.

At four in the afternoon.

Lu Xiaoxi came out of her room without a coat, and her regular clothes were a bit wrinkled.

“Up so early.”

She looked at Li Mu with a hint of resentment; it was always Li Mu who woke up first, and she couldn’t see his sleeping face.

She must have been stared at by Li Mu just now.

She had to dress more tightly; who knew from what angle Li Mu was looking at her.

If it was too high, wouldn’t her collar be fully exposed to Li Mu?

“It’s not early; I’ve slept for an hour and a half. What about you? How many hours do you sleep in a day? You start sleeping at one o’clock and wake up after four in the afternoon, almost three hours, and you still have to sleep at night. Can you even sleep?”

“Who knows about sleeping? I feel like no matter how much I sleep in a day, it’s never enough. If it weren’t for cooking for you, I could sleep until the evening.”

“You seem quite proud, Classmate Little Pig Lu.”

“Being able to sleep is a blessing.” Lu Xiaoxi had always thought so.

Sleeping soundly and waking up naturally, isn’t that a blessing?

The coffee table was not high; if Li Mu wanted to write, he could only lean forward, which was an awkward and uncomfortable position.

The main issue was still hurting his back.

A girl with a herniated disc would pay more attention to protecting her waist; she mostly squatted down to pick things up rather than bending at a ninety-degree angle.

“You’ll hurt your back like this; why not go to the dining table?” Lu Xiaoxi poked his waist, lifted his shirt, and a slippery little hand reached in, pressing firmly on both sides of his spine to make him feel more comfortable.

Li Mu’s body was warm; when it got cold later, she would let Li Mu warm her hands and feet.

“That’s fine; the dining table is just for eating. Putting a computer there feels off, I can’t explain why, just like the coffee table shouldn’t be used for the induction cooker.”

“Then go back to your room to write; don’t maintain this position.”

“I’ve finished writing.” Li Mu quickly typed a few times on the keyboard, and today’s writing mission was over.

He closed his computer and didn’t put it away, just left it on the coffee table, then hugged Lu Xiaoxi and leaned against the sofa, not saying a word.

The two of them nestled together like this, sitting in a daze for more than ten minutes.

Is this a little romantic feeling of childhood sweethearts?

“What are we having for dinner tonight?” he suddenly spoke up.

“If you ask that question again, I’ll eat you, in a physical sense.”

“Go ahead, cannibal.” Li Mu reached out to her, as if he had made a great decision.

Today, he Li Mu was going to sacrifice himself for the little green plum.

As for what would happen after the sacrifice, that was still uncertain.

Lu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes beautifully, gently biting Li Mu’s hand, and two shiny threads broke as Lu Xiaoxi looked up.

“Are you really going to eat me?”

“You made me do it.”

“Ah, there’s saliva.” Li Mu withdrew his hand, sniffed the bitten spot, and his face fell, “It stinks.”

“Serves you right.” Lu Xiaoxi hummed.

Li Mu didn’t say that when he kissed her and teased her lips with his tongue.

Sometimes, the identities of the little green plum and the little bamboo horse would also switch.

Lu Xiaoxi would occasionally pull Li Mu’s hand and play with his fingers.

Li Mu’s hands were much larger than hers, and each finger looked very nice.

She had once seen some videos where girls in the comments would say some dirty words about the boys’ good-looking hands in the videos.

If Li Mu posted his hands online, it would definitely be even more exaggerated.

Hehe, luckily, these hands belonged to her now.

She gently kissed the back of Li Mu’s hand, marking an item.

“What are you doing, hand-control little green plum?”

“I’m not a hand-control; I just think your pig trotters smell nice, and you need to trim your nails. You watch videos about trimming horse hooves and cow hooves every day; why don’t you trim your own pig trotters?”

“You know this?”

“It’s written in the records; you also like watching videos about washing blankets and hydraulic presses.”

Lu Xiaoxi didn’t understand what was so interesting about these; she really didn’t know why Li Mu kept watching.

After scrolling through the playback records for a while, she could see one.

“Boys are like this.” Li Mu rubbed her forehead and wanted to touch her little belly, but was stopped.

“Don’t move; I’ll trim your nails.”

“Mustard tenderness?”

“Little green plums are like this.”

Lu Xiaoxi blushed and felt a little proud.

She was somewhat narcissistic, but she had hidden that narcissism deep inside; only when facing Li Mu could she naturally reveal her self-love.

If Li Mu teased her, she would say she learned it from him.

And that was indeed the case.

Before this, she had never told anyone else how good-looking, cute, and gentle she was…

“Don’t cut into the flesh; if it bleeds, you have to kiss me twice, no, three times.”

“If you don’t move, it won’t bleed; be good and don’t mess around.”

“Be careful.” Li Mu reminded her repeatedly.

Accidentally cutting into the flesh still hurts a lot, especially at the part where the nail connects to the fingertip.

Li Mu had once seen a picture of someone poking that area with a toothpick, and just looking at it made him feel pain.

Lu Xiaoxi was really very gentle.

She carefully helped him trim five nails.

All the sharp edges were smoothed out neatly.

After finishing this side, Lu Xiaoxi then walked over in her slippers to continue helping Li Mu trim his nails.

Li Mu looked at his neatly trimmed nails, blew away the dust on them, and various emotions surged in his eyes.

“For such great kindness, I have no way to repay you, so I can only… ”

“Get lost.”

“…” Li Mu swallowed the words he was about to say back into his stomach.

“Alright, take a look.”

“Trimmed very well; as expected of my little green plum.” Li Mu hid many, many feelings of affection in his heart, unable to express them, and could only hold the girl in his arms, “I still want to repay you.”

“How will you repay me?” Lu Xiaoxi raised an eyebrow.

“You say it, and if I can do it, I will.”

“You… just say ‘Sister Lu Xiaoxi,’ and let me hear it, okay?” Lu Xiaoxi’s face turned red.

She had been thinking about this for a long time.

She had dreamed about it several times, occasionally fantasizing about switching identities with Li Mu, imagining Li Mu as her little follower, imagining herself taking care of Li Mu, and imagining Li Mu calling her ‘Sister Lu Xiaoxi.’

“But I’m older than you.”

“You said you wanted to repay me.”

“…… Fine, let me think about it; just this once, okay?”

“Wait, let me record a video.”

“Don’t go too far, Classmate Little Pig Lu.”

“Ah, you said you wanted to repay me.”

Lu Xiaoxi rubbed against him like a little girl acting cute.

“You can’t send it to anyone.”

“I won’t send it; I absolutely won’t send it.”

“Then… Sister Lu Xiaoxi?”

“Hahaha, I’m going to show it to my mom!” Lu Xiaoxi grabbed her phone and ran back to her room as if escaping, not even wearing her shoes, and as she closed the door, she didn’t forget to make a cute face at Li Mu.

Li Mu had already anticipated this, but he couldn’t do anything about Lu Xiaoxi.

With a light sigh, he took a pair of pink slippers and went to Lu Xiaoxi’s door, gently knocking, “Your shoes.”

“Leave them at the door.”

“I’m not going in; what are you afraid of?”

“Just leave them at the door.”

“Here, I’ve left them.”

After a long while.

Lu Xiaoxi quietly opened a crack in the door.

What met her eyes was Li Mu’s tall figure, blocking out the light from outside.

Oh no, she fell into a trap!

Lu Xiaoxi wanted to close the door, but the small girl, even using all her strength, couldn’t match Li Mu’s one hand.

Li Mu just gently pushed, and the door opened wide.

He stepped inside, and Lu Xiaoxi quickly shrank back into the blanket.

No one could touch someone under the blanket; that was the rule of the three realms.

Li Mu smiled wickedly and casually closed the door behind him.

“I’ve shrunk back into the blanket; you can’t bully me!”

“Ah, don’t scratch, don’t scratch, hahaha!”
