Chapter 87: Brother Mu Won’t Always Spoil You
In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
On the morning of Halloween.
As the sky slowly brightened with the first light of dawn, the coldness of the night that still lingered over Ganlan City quickly faded away.
“Ah!”
Mu Yi pulled the blanket over her head and uneasily twisted around beneath it. Then she suddenly sat up straight on the bed, her lips slightly parted.
A hot and damp feeling surrounded her, and her mind was in complete chaos.
As she breathed heavily, the soft white chest wrapped beneath her cotton nightshirt rose and fell violently.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly as her eyes moved around to check her surroundings. She discovered that she was still lying in her bedroom. A line of sweat slid down her slender pale neck and disappeared between her soft chest.
“Haa... so it was another dream.”
Mu Yi wiped the sweat from her forehead, sighed in relief, and leaned back against the white wall.
This just never ends...
She had been having dreams for an entire week now, and all the dream scenes were connected together.
It was almost like watching a continuous drama series.
And in every dream, she was doing embarrassing things with Gu Zhiren in different places...
On the first day, she dreamed that Gu Zhiren proposed to her. Then she turned into a strange being who was a catgirl during the day and a succubus at night. He used ice cubes to tease and “train” her harshly.
On the second day, she dreamed she was simply a catgirl, and the two of them messed around everywhere. The entrance, the kitchen, the bathroom, the balcony. She was even forced to give birth to a whole litter of kittens for him.
On the third day...
Eek!
Mu Yi did not dare continue thinking about it.
She quickly cut off the memory, shook her head, and hurried to pour herself a glass of water.
Before the water even reached her mouth…
She suddenly remembered that today seemed to be Halloween.
Uncontrollably, she recalled last night’s dream again, and the hand holding the cup began trembling.
In the dream, she opened the door tonight for a girl dressed like a witch. The witch asked her for candy, but after she said she had no candy to give, she was turned into a small succubus.
Her chest and body both shrank, barely making her look like a tiny little girl.
Then she was directly sent onto Gu Zhiren’s bed!
He tormented her the entire night until she was so exhausted that she could only lie flat on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, while a shiny trace of liquid remained at the corner of her mouth.
“Damn it!”
Mu Yi raised her head and gulped down the whole glass of water at once. Her flushed cheeks puffed out slightly.
She used to be a man.
She and Gu Zhiren were childhood friends. She was his Brother Mu, and she had promised to protect him!
How could their relationship become something like this?
And every night in her dreams, she was sleeping with him. It was simply too ridiculous.
She would rather stay a virgin forever than ruin his life.
Just think about it, his family would never accept someone like her as part of the family. Although she really did care about him, luckily her feelings were not deep enough yet.
She could still cut things off!
Mu Yi scratched her neck and frowned. After putting down the cup, she quickly ran into the bathroom. Then she carefully checked her body once again.
If she could turn into a woman overnight, then…
Was it possible that one day she might suddenly turn into another kind of creature too, just like in the dreams?
If that really happened, then wouldn’t she be completely doomed? Her entire life would truly be ruined...
Looking at herself in the mirror, she carefully checked all over and confirmed that there were no extra ears, tails, or strange patterns on her body.
Hooking a finger around a strand of hair, the white-haired girl tilted her head and let out a long breath. Then she turned around, sat back at her computer desk, and turned on the computer that was still in sleep mode.
Might as well write some more chapters!
She rubbed her left shoulder and glanced down at the curves in front of her chest, only feeling soreness in her shoulders.
“If I didn’t turn into a tiny succubus girl, then just making my chest a little smaller would actually be pretty nice...”
The little author quietly muttered to herself as she opened the document.
Today’s light novel plot was still based on expanding the outline she had already prepared.
Huo Qiu and Bai Qiu finally became a couple.
But Huo Qiu insisted on keeping their relationship a secret at school, and Bai Qiu agreed.
Then the school held a sports festival.
Bai Qiu signed up for the girls’ 1000-meter race, but halfway through the competition, she accidentally fell to the ground. She scraped her knee badly and bled a lot.
So would Huo Qiu, who was publicly known as her rival, pretend not to see anything?
Or would she rush out and carry her lover to the infirmary?
The answer would be revealed in the next chapter.
As soon as she finished planning the story, Mu Yi immediately started typing rapidly on the keyboard. In less than ten minutes, she was done.
Just as she was about to stretch, her phone suddenly received a call, and the cheerful ringtone kept ringing nonstop.
“Little Chubby...”
After glancing at the caller name on the screen, Mu Yi frowned and stayed silent for a moment before finally answering the phone.
Honestly speaking…
Right now, she did not want to see him or hear his voice.
………………
Gu Zhiren was already downstairs with his luggage waiting for her!
He even wanted her to come down and help move his things.
After wasting time in the room for quite a while, Mu Yi patted her face and took several deep breaths before finally walking out the door. After locking her apartment, she headed downstairs.
The moment they met, Mu Yi stuffed both hands into her pockets and complained in a half-annoyed, half-teasing tone,
“This is strange. You obviously have an assistant, so why didn’t you ask him for help? And also, Gu Zhiren, do you even know what time it is now? It’s only ten-thirty!”
“Only?”
Gu Zhiren slightly raised his eyebrow with a strange expression.
“Why does it sound like you think it’s still very early when you say that...”
After thinking for a moment, Gu Zhiren suddenly realized something and slightly lifted his head. Then a mischievous smile appeared on his face as he asked,
“Mu Yi, don’t tell me you just woke up?”
Hearing that, Mu Yi instantly remembered the dreams she had been having these past few days. She rolled her eyes at him, then quickly looked away and nervously bit her fingernail while blinking.
After thinking for a moment, she puffed out her chest, raised her chin, and confidently replied,
“Hey, hey, hey! Don’t change the subject, okay? Why didn’t you ask Mr. Xiao Xi to help you?”
Mu Yi was very confused.
Compared to her thin arms and legs.
No matter how you looked at it, asking Xiao Xi to help move things sounded far more reliable.
Gu Zhiren saw through Mu Yi’s thoughts immediately. His eyes glanced at her slightly puffed cheeks and the beautiful pale neck beneath her smooth chin.
Suddenly, he really wanted to leave some marks there.
His lips moved slightly. Then he calmly raised his head and explained,
“Xiao Xi has other work to do. And with Brother Mu helping me, I think that’s more than enough.”
Hearing that, Mu Yi froze for two seconds. Then she immediately understood what he was trying to do. A proud and smug smile instantly appeared on her face as she tilted her head.
“You think that just because you call me Brother Mu once, I’ll obey everything you say?”
“Won’t you?”
Gu Zhiren smiled faintly and asked back.
“Of course—” Mu Yi deliberately dragged out the last word. “I won’t!”
“These hands of mine are meant for writing novels. How can they be used for carrying things?”
She raised one hand to look at it, then quickly pulled it back again.
“But if you really insist on me helping you move stuff, then I guess it’s not impossible. But I want to give my hands a break!”
She smiled brightly, her eyes curving slightly as her small nose twitched with a soft hum.
“Today I’m only writing two thousand words~”
She raised two fingers like a pair of scissors and lightly waved them.
Gu Zhiren only smiled without speaking. Secretly, he thought that she really never changed. Then he frowned slightly and glanced toward the passenger seat before letting out a regretful sigh.
“Well, then there’s no choice. Looks like I’ll just have to send that kitten back to the cat cafe...”
