Chapter 198 The Shining Person

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Li Qinran looked at Li Mu puzzledly while chewing dried rat.

She found that Li Mu looked at her with a strange look, as if he had some sympathy.

"nothing."

Li Mu withdrew his gaze and decided not to tell his sister the truth.

She was almost done eating anyway.

Li Mu is kind-hearted and doesn't want to see his sister feel sad after knowing the truth.

"Look how delicious my sister is eating, you should eat too!

“It’s delicious!

“Lord Yogurt asked the Great Sage to wash it many times before steaming it, more times than you have washed it, so it’s very clean!

“You can’t always eat grass, you need to eat more meat!

"My sister is almost done eating, give her some to try!"

The cat squatted at Li Mu's feet and muttered to himself like a little Tang Monk.

Li Mu pretended not to hear anything.

The cat was disappointed and frustrated.

"Have you eaten snail noodles?" Li Qinran finished the last bite of dried rat, walked to the coffee table to get some paper to wipe his hands, and sniffed as he passed by Li Mu.

"have eaten."

"The provincial government cafeteria has snail noodles?"

"I didn't eat in the cafeteria. I ate outside."

"Oh."

"I'm going to take a shower and change clothes." Li Mu turned and went back to the house.

"You just didn't go."

"You were eating dried meat just now."

"what?"

Li Qinran was stunned. What's wrong with the air-dried meat? He had to watch her finish eating before washing it.

Li Mu took off his suit and changed into a pair of shorts.

The cat habitually walked to the pile of clothes he had taken off and sniffed them, then suddenly jumped back, turned its head in astonishment, and stared at Li Mu, "Ni Mu, did you fall into the pit?"

"No."

"Then why do your clothes stink so bad?"

“I ate the snail rice noodle.”

"Rock dust?"

"Luoshifen is a kind of vermicelli made from rice milk. Although it doesn't smell very good, it tastes very fragrant."

"Why do people eat things that smell bad?" The cat was a little confused.

“It has been passed down from ancient times.”

"Hmm," the kitten tilted his head and thought for a moment, "What else smells bad but tastes good?"

"Stinky tofu."

“Stinky tofu~”

"I'll buy one for Master Yogurt, and you'll know after you try it."

"do not want!"

The kitten took two steps back, "You can't take off Mr. Yogurt's fur and wash it like your clothes, it will get smelly!"

"Just take a bath. Did you forget, Master Yogurt? When I gave you a bath in the courtyard, your body smelled so good."

"Yes."

Li Mu smiled, took the clothes to be washed and went to the bathroom.

The cat followed him, shaking its head, watching Li Mu wash clothes. At the same time, it was upset that Li Mu didn't eat rats. "Why don't you eat rats? Your sister eats them."

Li Mu shook his head helplessly, feeling angry and amused, "You little thing, you are so stubborn."

"You are such a stubborn big thing." The kitten imitated Li Mu's words and said in a serious tone, "Take a bite and you will know how delicious rat meat is!"

"Okay, Master Yogurt, please get out. I need to take a shower."

"Master Yogurt, watch you wash."

"."

Li Mu said nothing and reached out to lift the cat by the scruff of its neck.

The kitten lay obediently motionless, with its paws hanging naturally. Only when it saw that it was heading out the door did it start to struggle.

Small things naturally cannot struggle against big things.

After taking a shower, Li Mu wiped his hair and walked to the living room.

"Look." Li Qinran said to Li Mu, "We still have to buy some delicious snacks. I bought cat strips and freeze-dried food for Lady Yogurt. Now she lets me play with her tail."

".Very good." Li Mu hesitated and nodded.

Still, she couldn't bear to tell her sister that Yogurt didn't let her play with her tail because she bought snacks, but because she ate dried rat and this was Yogurt's return gift to her.

2 .

There's a melodrama playing on TV, but no one is watching it. It's just there as a background sound.

The cat was lying on the coffee table, eating fruit from its little bowl, making loud smacking sounds.

Li Mu and Li Qinran also sat on the sofa, eating from their bowls.

Just because at noon, my aunt washed grapes, and Li Mu said "I like to eat fruit yogurt" when feeding the kitten.

Buzz—the phone beside my leg vibrated.

Li Mu picked it up and saw that it was sent by Brother Nan:

Jiang Daimao: Gather at the gate of the provincial government.

Li Mu: OK.

After replying to Brother Nan’s message, Li Mu quickly finished the fruit in the bowl.

The kitten on the coffee table saw Li Mu eating fast, so she also ate faster.

"Are you eating so fast?" Li Qinran asked.

"I need to go out for a while."

"where to?"

"The Land and Resources Bureau."

"What are you doing there?"

"Identify the item."

"Yourself?"

"With Brother Nan."

"Brother Nan? Hiss! Is it Jiang Ruonan, Brother Nan?" Li Qinran was a little surprised.

"Yeah, do you know Brother Nan too?"

"I don't know her, but I've always heard about her deeds. She's very domineering!" Li Qinran said, "I heard that among the young men in the provincial capital, all the famous ones are her younger brothers."

"Oh, I see." Li Mu was not surprised at all.

"I'll go with you to meet Brother Nan." Li Qinran put down the bowl, "Wait for me, I need to change my clothes."

"it is good."

"Nimu, are you going to give Gou'er gold?" The kitten on the coffee table finished eating fruit and asked while licking his lips.

"Yeah, how did Master Yogurt know?"

"Mr. Yogurt saw you holding the bag." Cat looked at the cross-body bag on the sofa.

"Mr. Yogurt is really smart." Li Mu said, pulling a tissue to wipe the kitten's face. The kitten ate too fast and many milk beads splashed on its face.

"Xiao Mu, are you going out?" Auntie came out from the study.

"Well, I need to go to the Land and Resources Bureau."

"I just heard you and Ranran say that Xiaonan is going with you, right?" Auntie smiled, "You won't be eating at home tonight, right?"

"Maybe I won't come back for dinner," Li Mu said a little embarrassedly.

"That's how it should be."

My aunt said, "You finally got back to the provincial capital. Take Xiaonan out shopping and eating. Don't be reluctant to spend money. Xiaonan treats you very well. I heard that Xiaonan almost got into an accident in the reserve some time ago. Not long after that, the provincial department transferred her back, but she didn't come back."

"The provincial department transferred her back?" Li Mu was stunned.

"Didn't she tell you?"

"No."

Brother Nan never told him about this.

But he remembered what Brother Nan said to him when he was drunk -

"My mother told me not to be a forest ranger anymore and to do a safe civilian job or just stay at home.

"Don't you want me to be here? If I stop being a forest ranger, I won't be able to live here like this."

The transfer order should have been issued at that time.

Li Mu's heartbeat gradually became faster, and deep in his heart, a certain emotion began to spread.

In fact, parents’ divorce can cause great harm to children.

Whether you are optimistic or introverted, you cannot avoid this kind of harm.

Li Mu was lucky. When he was most confused and helpless, his uncle and aunt took him into this warm home and treated him as their own son. His sister also always treated him as her own brother.

This home was his light in the darkness and he cherished it.

It’s just that there are always some things that others cannot understand, and there are always some words that cannot be told to anyone.

For example, with all the secrets he carries, it's inevitable that he'll feel lonely after a while.

It's different now.

Brother Nan knew all his secrets, but he didn't think he was strange. Instead, he thought he was very powerful. He was like a ray of light that drove away the last bit of loneliness deep in his heart.

Thus, the spreading emotions quietly turned into a seed, planted in the heart, and took root and sprouted.

When Li Mu arrived at the gate of the provincial government, Brother Nan was already standing there waiting for him.

The provincial capital has good greenery.

Small-leaf banyan trees are planted on both sides of the road, and various flowers are planted in the isolation belts of the lanes. The afternoon sun is very gentle, shining through the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows.

Brother Nan was standing under the tree, waving at him with a bright smile.

The mottled light and shadows cast on her body, making her sparkle.
