Is this guy talking dirty to him? 

Ning You is not sure.

In his circle, very few people will talk to him about dirty topics. The only time was at a company party. An employee came back from a trip to Japan and recalled what he’d seen and heard. He said that a beautiful woman in Japanese is called bijin. Another employee immediately answered: “Isn’t that beautiful man called jida?”

At that time, all the employees laughed, but Ning You didn’t react until next morning. This was a dirty joke.

He didn’t think Li Mu was a frivolous person. On the contrary, he considered Li Mu as very simple and honest. 

He looked at Li Mu in confusion, and didn’t know if Li Mu felt embarrassed or something. he dropped the sentence “I’m going to chop wood, call me when you’re done”, and went to the other corner of the courtyard.

Ning You was the only person left, and the big yellow cow with her full breasts was still waiting for him to “squeeze dry”.

He set aside his doubts in his heart for the time being and concentrated on the work at hand.

The rhythmic sound of chopping wood and the sound of milk pouring into the iron bucket permeated throughout the yard. The two didn’t discuss anything, but inadvertently formed a tacit understanding.

At this time, if any acquaintance of Ning You came to visit the cabin, they’d be surprised that this great young master who normally leads a pampered life would be so down-to-earth is actually milking a cow.

More than ten minutes later, Ning You squeezed a whole bucket full of milk. He stood up kneading his sore back, and shouted at Li Mu: “Li Mu, I’m done milking.”

“Good. “Li Mu chopped down with an ax and split the round wood into left and right halves, “You put it over there,  I’ll come and load it later.”

Ning You in fact knew where the plastic bucket of milk was placed, and he could accomplish this task so they both finished work together. However, seeing Li Mu’s neat chopping of wood, he suddenly overcome with fascination walked to Li Mu’s side and asked, “Can I try it? 

Li Mu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with his arm, eyeing Ning You suspiciously he asked, “Are you sure?”

Milking a cow doesn’t require much physical strength, however chopping wood not only requires physical strength, but also requires a test of skills. Li Mu felt that this was not something the extremely delicate Ning You could do.

“Don’t you underestimate me.” Ning You sensed Li Mu’s questioning and replied with slight dissatisfaction.

When he was the chief engineer of the company, many people secretly questioned his ability without saying anything on the surface. But later, he still used his strength to prove that the chief engineer is not necessarily the one who is the best at scientific research, but he must be the one who is the best at management among people who are good at scientific research.

Ning You recalled that Li Mu chopped the wood first and didn’t make a small hole. He just started directly and split the wood with a bang. But he also knew that Li Mu taught him this method with a consideration of Ning You being a novice.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try.

For the first step, Li Mu already prepared Ning You’s log. Ning You only needed to raise the ax and chop it down. 

However, after he took the long ax handle from Li Mu’s hands and raised it vigorously, a trace of regret overcame his heart.

This is, too, heavy.

“Can you carry it?” Li Mu asked.

“Yes.” 

Although Ning You’s strength is not good, he is good at physics. He adjusted the distance between his hands and raised the ax smoothly, but when the ax gradually passed over his head, an ominous feeling appeared faintly in his heart.

Shit, I can’t control it.

By the way, use the waist to exert force.

Ning You wanted to get the ax over his head back on track, but he overestimated his ability to control his body. 

Seeing that he was about to fall backward by the ax, before he knew it,  Li Mu took the ax in his hand with one hand and circled his waist with the other to save him from falling.

“Don’t lift it if you can’t lift it.” Li Mu lowered his gaze at Ning You in his arms.

“I can lift it.” Ning You tugged at Li Mu’s clothes on his chest with his hand, “I just didn’t lift it to the right position.”

Li Mu found that Ning You was leaning on his arm, and had no intention of standing up straight. He glanced at the hand holding his clothes, and looked at Ning You inexplicably and asked, “Aren’t you going to get up?” 

“I, my back is sprained.” Ning You whispered.

Li Mu simply had a headache: “Are you an idiot?”

Without waiting for Ning You’s answer, he paid attention to the position of his hands and lifted Ning You horizontally.

“Lie down well.” 

Back inside the house, Li Mu put Ning You on the futon, then went to the medicine box and took a bottle of safflower oil over.

Ning You cooperatively lifted up the clothes on his back, and said embarrassingly: “I’m sorry, I’m causing you trouble.”

It’s really troublesome.

Li Mu didn’t allow Ning You to sleep in his bed, just to avoid unnecessary reverie. But now looking at that full slender waist he was holding, he only felt that his head hurt a lot more just now. 

In order to fully expose his waist for easy wiping, Li Mu pushed Ning You’s waistband down, and inevitably saw two back dimples.

He doesn’t know if it’s because of the lack of sunlight all year round but the skin on Ning You’s back is more tender than tofu. Li Mu didn’t wash his hands after chopping wood and just applied safflower oil onto the white skin. He inexplicably had a feeling… he soiled daxiaojie.

Can’t think about it anymore.

Li Mu raised his head trying his utmost best not to look down, but someone lying down just didn’t make him feel better. 

“Um…ah…it hurts so much…”

“Shut the hell up.” Blue veins appeared on Li Mu’s forehead, “The real pain is hearing a big old man shouting.”

But it awfully hurts, ah.

Ning You bit his lower lip aggrievedly, however Li Mu obviously eased his movements. After rubbing it a few times, comfort gradually replaced the pain. 

“Um… yeah… right there…”

Li Mu: “?”

For a moment, Li Mu suspected that Ning You was doing it on purpose.

But when he looked at Ning You’s thoughtless humming, he was pretty sure that the white swan didn’t think that way at all. 

After rubbing the safflower oil, Li Mu sat cross-legged beside Ning You and said, “Let me ask you something.”

“Hmm?” Ning You turned his head sideways and looked at Li Mu.

“How old are you?” Li Mu asked.

“Guess it.” Ning You didn’t answer directly. 

Li Mu’s guessing age has always been inaccurate, especially since he’s been in many mountainous areas over the years, and he has always come into contact with people who never maintain their skin. Before, he even recognized women in their thirties as aunts in their fifties.

However, Ning You’s age shouldn’t be too hard to guess.

“Twenty-two or Twenty-three.” Li Mu said.

As an older man who reached the age of 29, Ning You is very satisfied with Li Mu’s assessment of him. There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and he said, “That’s a good guess.” 

Li Mu nodded and said casually: “Call me gege.”

Soon, Li Mu will turn twenty-six years old, so whether Ning You is twenty-two or twenty-three, he is older than Ning You.

But Ning You didn’t expect Li Mu to put forth the suggestion. He turned his head rebelliously and retorted, “Don’t wanna.”

“No meal if you don’t call me that.” Li Mu said. 

The rebellious Ning You died in a flash. He knew that Li Mu was his great benefactor, and in addition, Li Mu in his eyes was at least 35 years old. It was reasonable for him to call Li Mu a gege and it’s not too much.

Thinking of this, Ning You turned his head again, buried the lower half of his face in his arm, and looked at Li Mu and called in a muffled voice: “…gege.”

“I didn’t know the fact about my wife was older than me”
