Nie Shen agreed without hesitation.
Yan Gui patted his shoulder, then took out his son from his pocket, and rubbed it frantically with pride: "See? You still have to learn."
Yan Xuanjing struggled out of his hands, jumped to the ground, and looked at Yan Gui in dissatisfaction and had to be convinced, and couldn't say anything for a while.
Yan Gui also knew that his son had a high temperament, but he knew better that Yan Xuanjing was not arrogant, and he would still learn what he should have learned, but it was difficult for him to turn a corner when he spoke with his fists for so many years.
Yan Gui is not in a hurry. He is in his prime, and he is still very early to abdicate. His son is only five hundred years old, and he has just entered adulthood. It is good to teach him slowly.
Rather than letting Yan Xuanjing learn the brains and abilities a fox should have, he is more concerned about his son's emotional issues.
Nie Shen was cautiously testing whether he could move forward, causing the yard to burn in the morning and evening, and green flames burst out in clusters.
Yan Gui didn't care about him, he simply sat down in front of his son, rubbed his hands, and asked him, "How are you and Lin Mu?"
Yan Xuanjing looked at him: "What?"
Yan Gui opened his mouth and came: "I fell in love with your mother at first sight, fell in love at first sight, fell in love at first sight, and went straight to bed at first sight..."
Yan Xuanjing was expressionless: "You were beaten for four hundred years before you chased down your mother."
Yan Gui: "..."
never mind.
This son is not as good as a piece of barbecued pork.
Yan Gui got up with a calm expression, left his son who refused to share his experience with him, turned his head past Nie Shen, and went into the courtyard.
With Yan Gui here, Yan Xuanjing was not worried that Nie Shen would run away. After Yan Gui walked into the yard, he also turned around and ran back to the hospital.
Lin Mu stayed in bed all night.
The treatment in the single ward is not bad. There is even a small bookcase in the ward, with some books and newspapers of the day on it.
Most of the books are some medical and humorous picture books, Lin Mu skipped those and pulled out the newspaper.
Lin Mu has not paid attention to these for a long time, but staying in bed is really boring, especially when the old man is just out of danger and still needs to be observed, it is best not to sleep to be on the safe side.
Lin Mu glanced at the local newspaper. After reading the social page, he turned back. The first page of the financial page was the news of the internal earthquake of Lulin Real Estate Group and the stock price plummeting.
Lvlin Real Estate is the property of Grandpa Linmu.
He could somewhat guess what was going on in the middle. He knew about the breakup between the two uncles and the grandfather. Even if they suffered a loss, they would have to split up, and there were still two uncles on the board of directors.
Mr. Lin was so angry with his two sons that he would definitely fight.
When several major shareholders fight, it is difficult for the group to operate without any mistakes or omissions.
Lin Mu glanced at the photos on the front page, and found that the old man Lin, who was still high-spirited in his impression, had grown a lot older.
I don't know if it's because of a lapse of several years, or because of recent events that made him like this.
But what does this have to do with him.
Lin Mu turned the page slowly, watching entertainment gossip with great interest.
At three o'clock in the morning, the old man finally woke up.
There is a warm yellow night light on in the ward, and the forest doesn't need much bright light to be able to see things clearly now.
"Mr. Tan, you're awake! Lie down first, and don't get up. I'll call the nurse on duty." Lin Mu quickly put away the newspaper, leaned over, followed the nurse's previous instructions to keep the old man lying flat, and then rang the bell.
The old man didn't seem to come back to his senses. Lin Mu massaged his legs and feet while muttering about what happened today.
"In the future, you have to take good care of your body, remember to take medicine, and stay in a good mood." Lin Mu rambled on and waited for the nurse to come before sitting back to the side again.
He looked at the old man lying on the hospital bed, froze for a while, and then slowly withdrew his gaze.
This is ordinary human beings.
All struggles are in vain before the dwindling life.
Lin Mu remembered his mother. Before she left, she was like a flower that had burned out and withered in loneliness.
But even so, his mother smiled every time he asked him to take a picture.
Lin Mu huddled in the chair and watched the nurse who whispered to the old man to confirm his consciousness. He felt that humans and monsters were together, and I am afraid that humans themselves must make great determinations.
Who can bear to go out with his lover when he is old and old, and be praised with kindness and say "your child/grandson is really filial".
Lin Mu remembered that in the last days of his mother, he often said things that he would not understand.
for example-
"It seems good to end now, without becoming an old lady".
At that time, Lin Mu felt that his mother didn't want to grow old, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that there are other meanings.
Humans and monsters are most beautiful only when they meet.
Just like the beautiful flowers that are in full bloom and wantonly blooming against the wind, after that, both parties are gradually marching towards the abyss of withering.
A story like this sounds romantic with regret and sadness, neither good nor bad either.
The nurse raised her head and said to Lin Mu, "Consciousness has recovered, and all indicators are normal at present, but I will be hospitalized for a few days for observation..."
Lin Mu regained his senses, blinked, nodded slowly, and wrote down all these words.
Seeing Lin Mu's young appearance, the nurse couldn't help but remind her: "Old people are like this when they get old. Family members should pay attention to them in the future, and send them to the doctor in time for any illness."
Lin Mu nodded obediently: "Okay."
At five o'clock in the morning, Mr. Tan's family rushed over and thanked Lin Mu again and again.
Lin Mu handed them the pen and paper that he remembered the precautions.
Teacher Tan is old, even her daughter is already Lin Mu's elder.
Lin Mu said softly: "Here are the precautions. I have always been local, and the work is very easy. If you are too busy, I can help to accompany you."
Almost all of Mr. Tan's family knew Lin Mu, probably because they went to visit him during the festivals and gave gifts along the way. Once they were given, they were people for several years, and there was only one Lin Mu.
This is probably why Teacher Tan is always willing to help take care of Lin Mu.
Who doesn't want to take care of the good boy who is grateful for the gift
They rubbed Lin Mu's head a few times and said it was fine. After paying back all the money Lin Mu had paid, they gave a few hundred more as a red envelope.
Lin Mu returned the money and ran out of the ward with oil on the soles of his feet.
Lin Mu walked outside the hospital, looking down at his hands.
The calluses on these hands are actually not very good-looking, because they need to do a lot of things, so they have been there since childhood.
But looking at it now, it has faded a lot unconsciously, and even the slightly thicker knuckles have become better looking.
His body was changing quietly. According to what Yan Xuanjing said, as long as he wasn't injured by a special monster power, in terms of the monster's ability to recover, it would be hard for a wound to remain on his body.
Even a half-demon.
Lin Mu glanced at his palm, and found that he, who had always been rough-skinned and thick-skinned, was now so white that he could clearly see the blue-purple veins under his skin.
I usually didn't pay attention, but now I realize that the change is so obvious.
Lin Mu saw Yan Xuanjing at the door of the hospital.
It was slightly bright at 5:00 in the morning, and the hospital door was lit, like a soft gauze that cast a layer of light on the air in the foggy morning.
He stood tall in the crowd, wearing a black ancient costume that was out of tune with the surroundings, which was extremely conspicuous.
But there were people coming and going around him, and no one noticed that there was a person there.
Lin Mu admired it for two seconds, then Yan Xuanjing looked up.
Four eyes facing each other.
Lin Mu rubbed his face, walked over quickly, and found that Yan Xuanjing felt a little cool.
Lin Mu was startled: "Have you waited for a long time?"
"No." Yan Xuanjing shook his head, casually brought up the topic, and asked, "Go home?"
"Wait a minute." Lin Mu turned around and went to the breakfast shop to buy some light porridge. "I'll go and deliver breakfast to Teacher Tan."
Yan Xuanjing nodded indifferently, Lin Mu went to return from breakfast, and found that Yan Xuanjing was standing in the crowd, still in that position, motionless.
The wind in the early morning was a little cool, Lin Mu put his hands in the pockets of his sweater, and suddenly felt extremely lucky.
Luckier than Nie Shen.
luckier than mom.
Luckier than those who are exhausted.
Luckier than youkai who have been alone for so many years.
He is no ordinary human.
He has parents who love him.
He grew up healthy.
He has elders and friends who care about him.
There are also favorites.
Lin Mu Xiaobu hopped in front of Yan Xuanjing, raised his head slightly and met the eyes of the nine-tailed fox.
His eyes were sparkling, with lively joy and joy.
Yan Xuanjing didn't understand why Lin Mu was suddenly so happy when he went to deliver breakfast.
He turned slightly, walked forward, and asked casually, "Is it okay?"
Lin Mu followed him in a few steps, walked side by side, and replied, "It's alright, old man, there's nothing you can do."
Yan Xuan nodded and asked, "How do you want to go back?"
"Didi beats the fox." Lin Mu replied.
Yan Xuanjing: "..."
The nine-tailed fox changed back to its original form on the street where people came and went, relying on its ability to hide from the eyes and ears of ordinary humans.
Lin Mu looked up at the big fox Yan Xuanjing, and just as he was about to reach out to touch his hair, Yan Xuanjing grabbed his collar and threw it onto his back, and he rose into the air in an instant.
Lin Mu rolled on the fox's fluffy back, got up and moved forward, carefully moved to between the two ears on top of Yan Xuanjing's head, lay on his back, looking at the scene of fast retreating ahead, after a while, whispered He asked, "Nanny... Yan Xuanjing, what do you mean when you say you like me?"
The nine-tailed fox kept walking, and responded indifferently: "What?"
"That's it..." Lin Mu took a deep breath and said loudly, "You told Nie Shen that you liked me!"
Yan Xuanjing shook his ears from the sound: "Yes."
Lin Mu clenched the fur under his hand: "Do you like me?"
"Yeah." Yan Xuanjing responded, glanced at the small courtyard that was getting closer, and began to land.
"What does 'um' mean?" Lin Mu asked.
Yan Xuanjing fell to the ground and changed back into a human form. He was a little puzzled by Lin Mu's question, but still replied, "I like what you mean."
"..." Lin Mu opened his mouth, not at ease, and asked again, "Which one do you like?"
Yan Xuanjing was even more puzzled.
He stared at Lin Mu for a while, with a stunned expression, raised his hand to hold Lin Mu's face, leaned over slightly, and kissed him on the lips.
