Chapter 45 - Want me to sleep with you? (2/2)
Lin Mu was taught by his mother to be reasonable from young, and violence was the last resort. However, from the years he remembered when he was a kid, those words didn’t work at all.
Your safety is the most important and remember to bring your father along when you run, understand?”
Here, strength was king, and daring to scold, kick someone out, and fight them until they were all bloodied and bruised; such violence was the truth.
Lin Mu felt that the contradition in Di Wu’s words were kind of awkward.
Later, he cleaned up the area and beat up the mad dogs around him, and the life of their mother and child pair became calm.
Di Wu was still uneasy, and told Lin Mu, “Qin Chuan’s situation is a little strange, you watch him and keep a close eye on him. Pay attention to your own safety, and Yan Xuanjing first.
Afterwards, when he went to junior high in the city, did then Lin Mu realise that his mother was right when she said that it was best to use reason.
But Di Wu knew how bad Qin Chuan’s, this Dragon Vein, luck was.
And ever after that, Lin Mu became a highschooler in an important high school, and his position in this village where nobody studied was suddenly different. Only, Lin Mu and his mother were to lazy to deal with these people, and met it all with a bland attitude, but their life was still quite comfortable.
When he was a child and needed the most help, and after when he needed help to prepare for his mother’s funeral, wasn’t he the only one who gritted his teeth and got through it?
“They probably want to make it up to you. Your uncles.”
Yan Xuanjing said.
It’s just that Lin Mu was the type that could stand up strong without any help.

Children of monsters were born with an innate ability to fight and fall, because aggression and violence were carved into their bones, and they were born to be aggressive. Even if it was Di Xiu, if he actually fought, he wouldn’t be someone that could be easily dealt with.
From their natural talent brought by their spirit and soul, there were many things that they could do.
Even those plant-based monsters who only wanted to bask in the sun everyday would fight of a piece of land filled with spiritual energy, after all, in the Great Wilderness, lands filled with spiritual energy were quite popular, and some really couldn’t be bought with money.
What if there was somebody who couldn’t compete for it?
They could either snatch it away, or directly kill all their competitors.
If one thought about it this way, Lin Mu’s mother had really taught Lin Mu very well.
He was almost a perfectly normal human being.
“Of course I know they want to compensate me.” Lin Mu muttered, “I thought about it before, it was because of what Dad and I was that my mother protected news about her very tightly, but they’ve always been developing in A City, so if they really wanted to find us, they could.”
Of course, Lin Mu’s biggest complaint was that these relatives could simply decided not to step into his life at all or leave an impression on him, but they had to jump out and bounce around.
Since they had already broken off their relationship with his mother, then they should have simply and cleanly severed it.
After his mother had left, they had to run out and show their existence and disgust him, what kind of thought process was that?
Compared to his grandfather’s machination, Lin Mu felt that his silent uncles who only dared to secretly help him become cuter.
Lin Mu thought angrily.
“Forget about them, it’s all a small problem, and we’re not going to have any connection with them anyway.”
Even two potted plants that were ready to be sent out, Lin Mu was also planning to give them to Uncle Zhao, and ask him to hand it over to his two uncles.
After all, he didn’t have their contact information, and also didn’t really want to meet them.
Qin Chuan’s eyes brightened, and he jumped up, “is Di Wu at your place?”
According to what Uncle Zhao told him before, if the three of them met, his two uncles might end up being beaten by his retired grandfather who kept an eye on them everyday.
“No.” Lin Mu shook his head
Just thinking about it was enough to feel aggrieved.
“Let’s go.” Lin Mu stood up, “Di Wu asked me to bring you back.”
Lin Mu stood up, jumped in place to loosened his limbs, picked up the small shovel and said, “I’m going to work on the potted plants, place the Morning Dusk in, and bring them with me tomorrow.”
Qin Chuan didn’t seem to mind at all, he happily followed behind Lin Mu, showing his teeth in all directions.
Yan Xuanjing watched Lin Mu carry the pot to the car, dragged the little trailer and prepared to go back to the house. As soon as he looked up, he saw Di Xiu floating above the fence.
Di Xiu had heard most of their conversation, and when he thought that Lin Mu had such experiences because of his absence, his thin lips pursed, and his eyes were gentle, yet held some repressed guilt.
Lin Mu never expected that his father would have heard these emotional complaints, and was somewhat at a loss.

He looked around and had nowhere to hide, so he could only hold the handle of the trailer tightly and gave a somewhat dry greeting to his father.
Di Xiu tentatively drifted forward, and seeing that Lin Mu didn’t react, he bent down slightly and said softly, “I…… From the beginning, was looking forward to your birth.”
“Your name, Lin Mu, was given by me. I took part of your mother’s surname and part of the Xiu from Di Xiu2. At that time, your mother laughed and said I was illiterate, but in the end, she gave you that name.”

“When you were a child, you were very naughty in your mother’s belly, just as fierce and aggressive as other half-monsters.”
“…… I’m sorry I couldn’t give you the best beginning, and I’m sorry couldn’t give my wife the best ending.” Di Xiu squatted down and looked up towards Lin Mu who was looking down, “but your mother and I love you very much. This is beyond doubt.”
“I want to make up to my son as a father who neglected his job.”
Lin Mu pursed his lips and whispered, “then you have to work hard.”
Di Xiu’s expression bent into a subtle smile, en?”
“At least you need a human form to touch and hug.” Lin Mu said.
The smile on Di Xiu’s face became more obvious, “okay.”
“Good children go to bed early. Want to listen to a bedtime……”
“No need.” Lin Mu resolutely rejected Di Xiu, and pulled his little trailer along as he rushed into the house.
“I still don’t know your name?”
— At least from the poker table’s point of view, Qin Chuan hadn’t had much good luck.
Di Wu felt that the level of unluckiness Qin Chuan, this little idiot, had, if he was left outside own his own for too long, soon, they probably wouldn’t know where to find him anymore.
After all, he was an unlucky little fella that would be caught by taking a stroll outside to contain the overflowing Yellow River in his hometown.
Di Wu was still uneasy, and told Lin Mu, “Qin Chuan’s situation is a little strange, you watch him and keep a close eye on him. Pay attention to your own safety, and Yan Xuanjing first. Your safety is the most important and remember to bring your father along when you run, understand?”
Yan Xuanjing, who was being extremely quiet, looked at Di Xiu’s original body in the yard, and realised that after being encouraged by his son, Di Xiu, who had been slowly and naturally expanding out suddenly accelerated his speed of absorbing the moon essence, and directly took in all the moon essence in the yard.
The fox spirit who realised that he probably couldn’t get enough moon essence in the yard paused, changed back to his original form, took a dog bed to the door of Lin Mu’s room, raised his paw and knocked.
Lin Mu dragged his slippers and opened the door, and met eyes with Milky who was crouching at his door.
Yan Xuanjing looked at Lin Mu’s slightly reddish eyes, paused, and hesitatingly asked, “……would you like to kiss?”
Lin Mu was stunned, and it took a long time for him to react and understand where Yan Xuanjing’s brain circuit had connected to.
It was probably the same as last time, and he wanted to kiss his forehead to comfort him.
Lin Mu stared blankly at the dog with the dog bed in front of him, sniffled and said, “No.”
Yan Xuanjing was silent for two seconds, thought of the moon essence that was being swept away in the yard, pondered for a moment and asked, “then do you want me to sleep with you?”
Lin Mu’s whole body jumped: “???”
Yan Xuanjing laid on the ground, looked up at Lin Mu who was in a state of shock, and added, “my human form or my original form, which do you like?”
Lin Mu stuttered, “what, what do you mean which do I like?”
“Don’t you like me?” Yan Xuanjing said calmly, “do you like my human form more or my original form more? Do you like one tail or nine tails? I’m alright with any.”
Lin Mu’s entire face was impassive, “…… what are you doing?”
“Sleep with you.” Yan Xuanjing brought his words back to his original point, looked at Lin Mu’s expression, and suddenly added, “couldn’t get any moon essence from Di Xiu, so I came over……”
Before the fox spirit could finish his words, he saw the door in front of him mercilessly close, and with a ‘click’, it was locked.
The author has this to say:
Did you all forgot that Milky had said Lin Mu liked him when he showed his other self?
Yes, he had always thought so.
