After Bai Mu Ning finished speaking, Wen Jing stayed silent for a long time. Because of the way he was hugging Wen Jing, he couldn’t see his expression, nor did he know what Wen Jing was thinking.
Why did he suddenly go silent?
Did this mean no?
Whether it was yes or no, shouldn’t there at least be a response!
The sense of security he had just barely managed to regain quietly slipped away again, and unease began to creep into his heart. Bai Mu Ning loosened his arms around Wen Jing and lifted his gaze to look at him.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
He thought maybe the question he had brought up was difficult to answer, so it was normal for Wen Jing to hesitate.
Asking for a home like that. Wasn’t this emotional blackmail?

“How could I?” Bai Mu Ning quickly explained, “You were silent this whole time. I didn’t know what you meant, and what if I made things difficult for you?”
“Even stray cats and stray dogs have their pride, okay?”
“Who said you’re a stray cat?”
Bai Mu Ning pointed at his luggage. “I’m homeless again, doesn’t that count?”
The last time he was homeless, it was because the school kicked him out. This time, it was because a shady agent kicked him out.
Bai Mu Ning always seemed to go through situations where he was driven away. Wasn’t this exactly the fate of a stray little animal with no home?
When he was young, his family didn’t have a house, so he lived in rented places with his parents. Later, when his parents were gone, he couldn’t afford rent on his own and could only live at school.
When others had vacations, they could go home, but during breaks, he could only stay alone in the dorm. During the holidays, he was always by himself.
The word “home” truly meant a lot to Bai Mu Ning.
He didn’t know what sour feeling rose in his heart again, but his eyes grew misty, his vision blurring as he began to feel wronged once more.
Ever since meeting Wen Jing, Bai Mu Ning felt like he could cry even more than Lin Daiyu.
If he kept crying like this, he might as well change his surname to Lin.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Bai Mu Ning turned his head to the side and secretly wiped his tears away.
Wen Jing held his shoulders and kissed his tears. “What are you sad about?”
Bai Mu Ning forced himself to sound casual and took a deep breath. “I’m not sad. I just want to be a stray cat for now and find myself a temporary nest to live in. Also, why does the wind in Jingnan have onions mixed in it? No, wait, I think my eyes must be faulty, tearing up whenever the wind blows. Maybe I should just have my tear glands removed.”
He rambled nonsense, not even knowing what he was saying himself.
People’s minds were bound to be a mess when they were feeling awkward.
Wen Jing kept his hands on Bai Mu Ning’s shoulders, not moving. He bent his knees slightly so he could look Bai Mu Ning straight in the eyes and said, “Bai Mu Ning, you’re not a stray cat. You’re my baby.”
Wen Jing suddenly broke into his field of vision, completely occupying his sight. His pupils were filled to the brim with nothing but him.
The unease in Bai Mu Ning’s heart was healed instantly by Wen Jing’s words. Bai Mu Ning opened his mouth and said in mock complaint, “Then why were you still hesitating? If you stayed silent any longer, your baby would’ve flown away.”
Luckily, he was strong enough mentally to know how to comfort himself, or else he would’ve been so heartbroken by now that he’d be slashing his neck in despair.
Wen Jing said very seriously, “I was just thinking… are you trying to reconcile, or are you proposing?”
Proposing?
Bai Mu Ning’s eyes widened in shock, his face filled with disbelief.
What he was thinking was: Could they even get married?
After pausing for a moment, Bai Mu Ning greedily tested the waters. “Can we do both?”
What he meant was, could they both reconcile and get engaged?
Killing two birds with one stone, that would be convenient.
Even though they didn’t have a legal certificate to bind them, just the thought of being able to spend his whole life with Wen Jing, living together like a married couple, felt wonderful.
Wen Jing gave a cold snort. “No.”
No was no. Why did he have to be so fierce about it?
Bai Mu Ning was picked up by Wen Jing in the middle of the night and brought home. Carrying his luggage upstairs and stepping into Wen Jing’s house, Bai Mu Ning finally felt secure.
That feeling of coming home was truly wonderful.
Sure enough, wherever Wen Jing was, that was home.
Only, something felt a little off. He really had come home, but he seemed to have become just a guest.
When he saw Wen Jing carrying his things into the guest bedroom, Bai Mu Ning asked in confusion, “I’m going to be staying in the guest room?”
Wen Jing said, “Yes.”
Bai Mu Ning quickly walked over and blocked Wen Jing. “Why can’t I stay with you?”
“Aren’t we reconciled now?”
In Bai Mu Ning’s eyes, since they had reconciled, that meant they were a couple again. Wouldn’t it be perfectly normal to live together?
What did Wen Jing mean by not living together with him?
Did he still want to test him?
“Be good and stay in the guest room for now. There are some things we’ll talk about later.”
Since Wen Jing said so, Bai Mu Ning couldn’t keep pushing to stay together.
Who didn’t have their face?
If Wen Jing didn’t want it, then fine, he didn’t want it either.
After taking a shower, Bai Mu Ning lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
He was wide awake, without a trace of drowsiness. His mind kept circling back to Wen Jing’s words: There are some things… What things?
What could possibly be something he wasn’t allowed to know?
With dark panda-like circles under his eyes, Bai Mu Ning thought again about wanting Wen Jing to coax him to sleep. What should he do?
Barefoot, he walked to the master bedroom door, carefully and cautiously pushing it open. Bai Mu Ning crept inside like a thief, slowly approaching the bedside. Then, in one swift motion, he lifted a corner of the quilt and dove under it as fast as he could.
He wrapped his arms tightly around Wen Jing’s waist, refusing to let go, already mentally prepared to be thrown out. No matter what happened, he was determined to hold on for at least ten minutes.
Wen Jing hadn’t fallen asleep yet. He heard the sound and opened his eyes. Now that Bai Mu Ning was clinging to him, Wen Jing couldn’t help but laugh helplessly. “What are you doing? Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Bai Mu Ning spoke with full conviction, “We’ve already made up, so why should we sleep in separate rooms? We’re not some middle-aged couple playing at being physically together but emotionally apart.”
“I don’t care. I don’t want to sleep alone. I want you to stay with me.”
As he spoke, Bai Mu Ning’s hand slipped under Wen Jing’s shirt hem, touching the abs he had been dreaming about day and night.
He desperately wanted to lick them.
Wen Jing loved it most.
However, his mischievous hand was caught and slowly pulled away from inside the sleepwear. Wen Jing’s voice was low and hoarse as he said, “Xiao Ning, don’t make trouble. Go to sleep early, be good.”
He actually held back?
A sense of crisis surged in Bai Mu Ning’s heart. Could it be that Wen Jing wasn’t interested in him anymore?
He still remembered before whenever Bai Mu Ning dared to climb into his bed, Wen Jing would definitely play him to death. But now? Not even a single move? Had this old man learned abstinence?
Wen Jing held his hand firmly, not allowing him to move recklessly. With no other choice, Bai Mu Ning could only use his mouth. “Jing-ge, have you still not forgiven me? Are you still testing me?”
Bai Mu Ning’s voice softened as he said, “Stop testing me. I miss you so much.”
“Come on, give me a kiss.”
As he said that, he inched closer to Wen Jing, like a silkworm cocoon that had gained sentience.
Wen Jing released his hand, wrapped him in his arms, and pressed a kiss to his forehead. “There’s no such thing as forgiving or not forgiving. Everything is in the past.”
“Bai Mu Ning, when it comes to you, I admit defeat. You are the uncontrollable force of my life. I can’t escape, and you’d better not even think about running away.”
Fingers brushing over his lips, Bai Mu Ning closed his eyes. Soon, Wen Jing’s voice sounded softly in his ear. “Alright, sleep.”
Before long, the sound of even, steady breathing reached his ears.
This time, it was Bai Mu Ning’s turn to be both angry and amused.
He just fell asleep like that? What about the next round of exercise?
They always said a short separation was sweeter than a honeymoon, but why did Bai Mu Ning feel like his and Wen Jing’s “short separation” was more like a mini-divorce, with their feelings fading instead?
What on earth was going on?
Bai Mu Ning began comforting himself again. It’s fine. Wen Jing must just be getting older. It’s normal for him to not keep up sometimes. I can fix this.
–
The next day, Wen Jing had a day off but had to rush out for something urgent, leaving Bai Mu Ning alone at home to search Baidu for related information.
For example, technical knowledge between men and men.
This was his blind spot, and he wanted to learn more to ease the fear in his heart.
He still remembered the breakup. Back then, he was genuinely scared, which was why he had rejected Wen Jing.
But surely this kind of thing couldn’t be ruined forever just because of one rejection, right?
What if Wen Jing really couldn’t do it anymore?
So, Bai Mu Ning started searching: What to do if your boyfriend can’t perform?
The related answers were all like: Get a new one.
Simple, crude, and straight to the root of the problem.
After flipping through several pages, he finally found a somewhat reliable answer, which suggested adding a little spice to their relationship.
These days, with the pressures of life, it was natural that people might not keep up as they aged. They might want to but simply couldn’t. That was just the reality of middle age.
Counting on his fingers, Bai Mu Ning realized Wen Jing had indeed stepped into the middle-aged bracket. No wonder he might not be able to keep up.
Bai Mu Ning let out a breath of relief. As long as it’s not that he’s tired of me, it’s fine.
In the end, Bai Mu Ning decided on a two-step plan: First, buy some little toys to spice things up and stimulate Wen Jing. Second, prepare nutritious meals to supplement Wen Jing’s health.
What if something really goes wrong?
Better safe than sorry.
He also needed to prepare some protection, so after browsing through many options, whether it was condom or lubricants, Bai Mu Ning chose everything in strawberry flavor.
He liked things with a sweeter taste.
Soon came the embarrassing part. When Bai Mu Ning searched for little toys, the results that popped up scared him so much he thought he had accidentally wandered onto some kind of adult site.
Eyes wide, he looked through many listings and felt as if a whole new world had opened up before him. His knowledge of strange and curious things had increased yet again.
The search results were bizarre but somehow all made perfect sense.
Bai Mu Ning didn’t have the guts to try anything too bold, so he could only choose the more conservative options, like cross-dressing.
He still remembered Wen Jing’s expression when he saw him in women’s clothes.
Back then, Bai Mu Ning didn’t really understand it and thought Wen Jing was just angry and disgusted.
But thinking back on it now, he realized there had been a trace of excitement in that look.
It was the kind of excitement that looked like Wen Jing couldn’t wait to tear him apart; it definitely wasn’t dislike.
In the end, Bai Mu Ning chose a cheongsam, quickly placed the order, and exited the page as fast as he could.
With the little toys taken care of, Bai Mu Ning moved on to researching medicinal cuisine.
Anything related to traditional Chinese medicine was his strong suit, and when it came to kidney health, he had plenty of expertise.
After all, Wen Jing had once diagnosed him with kidney deficiency. Now it was his turn to help Wen Jing.
He ordered some ingredients, expected to arrive in thirty minutes, and after confirming everything, he started looking for cooking pots.
Wen Jing’s house was well-equipped with frying pans, woks, stew pots, clay pots. Everything was available, saving Bai Mu Ning the trouble of buying any.
Busy scrubbing the clay pot in the kitchen, Bai Mu Ning soon heard the doorbell ring. Thinking it was the ingredients he had ordered, he didn’t even bother to dry his hands and rushed to open the door.
Standing at the door was Pei Shuchen. Bai Mu Ning smiled politely and greeted, “Auntie.”
Pei Shuchen was momentarily stunned at the sight of him. Then, her face quickly turned cold as she asked, “What are you doing here?”
From her tone, Bai Mu Ning could clearly hear the anger and dislike directed at him. He guessed that Pei Shuchen must have already learned about how he had deceived Wen Jing.
It had to be Wen Qi who told her.
Bai Mu Ning stood properly, feeling a bit at a loss. “I just moved in yesterday.”
Pei Shuchen walked inside, placed the frozen dumplings she had made into the freezer, then turned to Bai Mu Ning and said, “Let’s talk.”
Bai Mu Ning obediently hummed in response and followed her to sit on the sofa.
“Wen Qi told me everything. You’ve been lying to Wen Jing this whole time.”
“How could you deceive someone’s feelings?” Pei Shuchen said angrily. “What has Wen Jing ever done to wrong you? He likes you so much, and he’s willing to do anything for you.”
“I liked you at first too, but you’ve truly disappointed me.”
“Our family does not welcome you. You should stay far away from Wen Jing.”
Pei Shuchen’s face was stern as she directly issued an eviction order.
Feeling guilty and ashamed, Bai Mu Ning lowered his head and began admitting his fault. “Auntie, I’m sorry for disappointing you.”
“At the beginning, I did approach Jing-ge with ulterior motives. Even when I realized I had made a mistake, I still wanted him to break up with me.”
“I didn’t understand back then, but now I do. I like Jing-ge, and I don’t want to leave him.”
“I want to be with Wen Jing forever,” Bai Mu Ning declared solemnly, full of conviction.
Pei Shuchen let out a cold, mocking laugh. “You’re not staying with my son because you’ve got your eyes on his money, are you?”
“I get it. Just for breaking up, he bought you a house and gave you savings. If it were me, I wouldn’t break up either.”
Bai Mu Ning was stunned for a moment. The misunderstanding made him feel wronged. “Auntie, I’m not doing this for money. The things Jing-ge gave me, I returned them all. I didn’t keep anything.”
“What? Planning to get even more out of him? Or maybe you think my son’s getting older, so you’re just waiting to fight for the inheritance?”
Bai Mu Ning paused, staring silently at Pei Shuchen. After a moment, he finally spoke. “Auntie, Jing-ge and I can’t get married. There’s no legal relationship between us. How could I even scheme for the inheritance?”
“You could coax him into making a will.”
Bai Mu Ning laughed bitterly, almost angrily. “Auntie, Jing-ge isn’t a fool. How could he possibly leave all his assets to me?”
“He is a fool. Otherwise, why would he let you deceive him without killing you? He’s not some kind soul, his hands are plenty dirty!”
“Auntie, I don’t know how to dispel your suspicions about me. Of course, this is my fault. I was the one who deceived Wen Jing’s feelings first. I don’t even know what I could say to make you believe me.”
“All I want to say now is, Auntie, I don’t want to leave Wen Jing. I don’t want anything, I won’t fight for anything. I just want Wen Jing himself.”
“I can’t live without him. If I leave him, I’ll die.”
Every single day away from Wen Jing was torment, no different from death itself.
Just as Bai Mu Ning was about to say more, Pei Shuchen suddenly pulled out her phone, put it on speaker, and said, “Hear that? He says he’ll die if he leaves you. How touching!”
Pei Shuchen’s expression softened into a smile as she said warmly, “From now on, treat him well and don’t let down this true heart.”
Soon, Wen Jing’s exasperated voice came through the phone. “Madam Pei, have you acted enough? You’ve scared him!”
“What? How did I scare him?” Pei Shuchen retorted indignantly. “As a mother-in-law, can’t I test my son-in-law’s sincerity a little?”
“That’s enough. I’m coming back right now. Stop bullying him.”
After hanging up, Pei Shuchen’s expression immediately softened back to her usual warmth and playfulness. “Xiao Ning, were you scared? Auntie was just acting to test you.”
Bai Mu Ning had been sitting upright the whole time, every pore in his body tense. Now that he knew it was just a test, he completely relaxed.
He let out a breath of relief. “Auntie, I really thought you didn’t like me anymore. I was so upset.”
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have deceived you all. I know I was wrong.”
Pei Shuchen said gently, “What’s done is done. Let the past stay in the past. Besides, this is between you and Wen Jing. As parents, we only care about the result, not the process.”
“As long as Wen Jing acknowledges you, I’ll like you too.”
“Alright, you wait here for him. I should get going before he says I scared you again.”
At the door, Pei Shuchen turned back to Bai Mu Ning and said, “Xiao Ning, thank you for loving Wen Jing so steadfastly. We’re all so happy that he has someone to stay by his side. You’ve worked hard.”
“How could it be hard? I feel happy every single day I’m with Jing-ge.”
“I just hope that even after a long time, you’ll still be able to say that.”
A few minutes after Pei Shuchen left, the ingredients Bai Mu Ning had ordered were delivered. He immediately washed the vegetables and started stewing the medicinal dish.
Once everything was in the pot and the lid was closed, Wen Jing returned home.
He looked anxious. The moment he caught sight of Bai Mu Ning, he strode over in large steps and pulled him tightly into his arms.
Holding him tightly still didn’t feel like enough, so Wen Jing leaned in and kissed him urgently.
After a long, lingering kiss, Wen Jing finally pulled back, cupping Bai Mu Ning’s cheeks, and asked, “What you said earlier, was it true? That you’d die without me?”
Bai Mu Ning was still slightly breathless. “Of course it’s true. If I’m lying, I’m a little dog.”
“Then what will you do if I die before you?”
Bai Mu Ning thought for a moment, then joked, “Then I’ll inherit your fortune, keep a few fresh young men, and live a carefree life.”
Wen Jing squeezed his cheeks in warning. “Spend the money however you want, but no young men. If you dare let someone else into your bed, even as a ghost, I won’t let you go.”
With his face being squished, Bai Mu Ning could only pout. “I know, I know.”
Wen Jing let go and hugged him again, like he was his personal catnip, doting on him endlessly.
After a while, steam began wafting from the clay pot. Bai Mu Ning quickly slipped out of Wen Jing’s arms to check on it.
He lifted the lid, peeked inside, then covered it again, lowering the heat.
“What are you making?” Wen Jing frowned and asked.
“Something delicious, just for you. Drink plenty of it later.”
“You sure I’m the one who needs this soup?”
“Who else would need it if not you?”
Wen Jing’s gaze swept him up and down. “Are you sure you don’t need it?”
“No personal attacks allowed. I’ll get mad.”
–
After Bai Mu Ning forced Wen Jing to drink the soup for several meals, Wen Jing suddenly developed a nosebleed. Terrified, Bai Mu Ning swore he would never try to nourish Wen Jing’s body again.
He couldn’t help but suspect he had the makings of a quack doctor. How had he not realized that Wen Jing didn’t have any problems at all?
Examination complete. Not fake, just a bit underwhelming.
Three days later, the equipment finally arrived. Bai Mu Ning held the package carefully, studying how to put it on.
The thought of how many hands the package had passed through made him cringe at how dirty it must be, so he secretly washed everything clean and prepared to surprise Wen Jing that night.
Wen Jing had gone to work today. His hand had healed significantly and he was already back to seeing patients.
Since Bai Mu Ning needed to prepare for tonight’s seduction, he decided to skip work, spending the entire day at home figuring out how to use the “gear” and mentally psyching himself up.
In the afternoon, with nothing else to do, Zhuang Yumian messaged him for a casual chat.
[Zhuang Yumian: Xiao Ning, how much longer until you come back to work? Jiejie misses you!]
[Bai Mu Ning: Tomorrow.]
When Bai Mu Ning sent this reply, he didn’t think much of it. He simply figured that after he teased Wen Jing tonight, he’d be free to go to work tomorrow.
Little did he know, he was being way too optimistic.
[Zhuang Yumian: Xiao Ning, let me tell you something. Recently, there’s been a strict crackdown on group rentals and shady agencies.
A lot of places are suddenly banned from being rented out. Ugh, now I have to move. It’s such a headache.]
Having been scammed by a black market housing agency himself, Bai Mu Ning felt compelled to warn her.
[Bai Mu Ning: Mian-jie, don’t get scammed by a shady agency. Were you able to get your deposit and rent back?]
[Zhuang Yumian: The deposit and rent are already paid, but we didn’t get scammed.]
[Zhuang Yumian: But listen to this. Two days ago, there was a shady agency that got its legs literally broken by someone. No idea what went down, but ever since, the police have been on high alert about this issue. Before this, no one cared at all. If you got scammed, you just got scammed, end of story.]
After chatting with Zhuang Yumian, Bai Mu Ning felt a wave of frustration. Why hadn’t he run into this kind of timing?
Alright, he was still the unluckiest one, the one who got scammed by the shady agent.
That night, Bai Mu Ning first had dinner with Wen Jing. After they finished watching TV and were about to go to bed, he went to the bathroom to shower and change into his special outfit.
Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, Bai Mu Ning gave himself a mental pep talk before finally slipping it on.
It was his first time wearing something so revealing, and his face was flushed the entire time.
The slit on the outfit was extremely high, fully exposing his long legs.
When he caught sight of himself in the mirror, he froze. The zipper was on the back and he couldn’t reach it at all!
God, he cursed inwardly. Which genius designer came up with the idea of putting a zipper on the back? Did they never consider how a person was supposed to wear this alone without help?
No matter how hard he struggled, the zipper wouldn’t go up, and Bai Mu Ning grew increasingly anxious.
There was no way he could call Wen Jing in to help, right?
Flustered and desperate to zip it up, he accidentally knocked over a few bottles on the counter.
One of the glass jars fell to the floor and shattered loudly.
Wen Jing quickly rushed over and knocked on the door. “Xiao Ning, what happened?”
Hearing Wen Jing at the door, Bai Mu Ning panicked. “I’m fine! Don’t come in, whatever you do—don’t come in!”
He frantically searched for something to cover himself with, but in his haste, a piece of glass shard slipped into his slipper, stabbing his toe.
He hissed in pain.
The moment Wen Jing heard that sound, he completely disregarded Bai Mu Ning’s words and burst through the door. “What happened?”
Bai Mu Ning stood there on tiptoe, his clothes in disarray. The zipper on his back was still undone, leaving his back exposed. Wen Jing saw him looked utterly flustered and messy.
In that moment, Bai Mu Ning wanted nothing more than for the ground to open up so he could crawl inside and disappear.
Bai Mu Ning’s entire body flushed red, as if boiling water had been poured over him. Flustered, he blurted out, “Jing-ge, go out first! I don’t need you here.”
Wen Jing’s burning gaze slowly retracted, dropping down to Bai Mu Ning’s slipper. “How could I not be needed? You’re hurt.”
Bai Mu Ning’s toe was bleeding profusely. Without a second thought, Wen Jing scooped him up and carried him to the sofa.
He carefully cleaned the wound and then wrapped it with gauze.
Kneeling in front of him, Wen Jing slipped his arms around Bai Mu Ning and zipped up the back of his outfit. “New pajamas?”
Bai Mu Ning felt like Wen Jing was just playing dumb. What’s the point of pretending to be innocent when you’re clearly a thousand-year-old fox spirit?
“Mm, do they look good?”
“What are you wearing this for?” Wen Jing caught his wrist and kissed it, his voice carrying a sticky, seductive undertone.
Seeing the towering peaks through his clothes, Bai Mu Ning grew bolder. “To tempt you. Is that not allowed?”
thank you for the chapter!
nice one, mama pei! bai mu ning, you win!😆
