Mu Zhengqing was very confident about who Mulu would choose. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to do this.
Mulu clearly felt closer to him as a father and would definitely choose him. However, the result was not as he wished. Without hesitation, Mulu walked towards Lu Yiwei.
Mulu walked up to Lu Yiwei, meowed arrogantly, and then placed itself in his hands. It was almost as if it was saying, "Hurry up and serve me."
So easily bought over? Mu Zhengqing suddenly felt a sense of crisis. After the variety show was finished, Mulu wouldn't just leave with him. His only shared asset with Lu Yiwei was Mulu. If Mulu chose to stay with Lu Yiwei, he really had no other choice.
No, he had to win back Mulu's heart. Wasn't it just a massage? He would start learning tonight and had to surpass Lu Yiwei before the end of the variety show.
Although Mulu had chosen Lu Yiwei, Mu Zhengqing, while a bit sad, decided to accept the result. He walked towards the bedroom alone.
However, as soon as he put his hand on the doorknob, Mulu started to meow behind him. Not only did it meow, but it also ran towards him.
Mu Zhengqing quickly squatted down and hugged it. His sadness immediately vanished, replaced by a feeling of warmth. Mulu loved him the most after all!
Although it had chosen Lu Yiwei for pleasure just a moment ago, it still ran towards him without hesitation at the critical moment. However, his feeling of warmth didn't last long.
After several tests, they discovered that Mulu simply wanted them both to stay with it. If he left, it would meow; if Lu Yiwei left, it would still meow.
"What should we do? Should we just make do in the living room for one night?" Mu Zhengqing asked Lu Yiwei helplessly.
"Let's go to your room. This sofa is uncomfortable to sleep on," Lu Yiwei said, looking at the living room sofa with some disdain.
After settling Mulu in the bedroom, Mu Zhengqing glanced at his phone. It was almost midnight. No wonder he was so sleepy. He hadn't stayed up this late since his vacation.
Looking at Lu Yiwei, who was right beside him, Mu Zhengqing thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you sleep on the bed too?"
"It's okay, I'll sleep on the sofa. It's late, you should go to sleep," Lu Yiwei said, looking at the listless Mu Zhengqing.
Sleeping in the same bed, and it was Mu Zhengqing who invited him!
Normally, he wouldn't refuse such a rare opportunity, even though if they really slept in the same bed, they would only be sleeping. But he was afraid that if he was there, Mu Zhengqing wouldn't sleep well, so he refused.
"Don't argue with me. That's settled," Mu Zhengqing directly pushed Lu Yiwei to one side of the bed, not allowing any refusal.
Seeing Mu Zhengqing walk to the other side and lie down, Lu Yiwei hesitated for a moment, then also lay down on the bed.
The bed in the bedroom was very large, and there was enough space between the two of them for two more people.
But after lying in bed for a long time, not only did Mu Zhengqing show no signs of sleep, but his mind became clearer and clearer. The reason he couldn't sleep wasn't because there was another person next to him, but because his legs and arms started to ache after relaxing.
In order not to disturb Lu Yiwei's sleep, he moved his legs and arms slightly, hoping to relieve some of the pain. However, he had only moved a few times when Lu Yiwei got up and said to him, "Are you uncomfortable? Let me give you a massage."
"No, you go to sleep," Mu Zhengqing refused.
Although he missed Lu Yiwei's massage very much and knew that if he let Lu Yiwei massage him for a while, he would definitely be able to sleep comfortably. But it was the middle of the night, how could he be so embarrassed.
"Don't argue with me, that's settled," Lu Yiwei said directly, turning on the light.
Just when Mu Zhengqing felt that this sentence sounded familiar, Lu Yiwei had already started to massage him.
"Then you massage me first, and I'll massage you later," Mu Zhengqing said before falling asleep.
The next morning, his memory of the previous night ended with him saying he would massage Lu Yiwei later.
He had no idea when he fell asleep.
He didn't know how long Lu Yiwei had massaged him.
He looked to the side and Lu Yiwei was no longer there.
Just as he was about to get up, he felt something heavy on him. Upon seeing Mulu, his eyes lit up.
Five minutes later, after playing with his cat, Mu Zhengqing opened the bedroom door feeling refreshed.
The smile on his face disappeared when he saw the people in the living room. Why were the production crew here so early today?
He slowly picked up his phone and almost fainted when he saw it was 9:10. How could it already be past nine?
If he remembered correctly, if he stayed in the bedroom for more than ten minutes after eight in the morning, the production crew would install a camera in his bedroom.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Mu Zhengqing asked Lu Yiwei softly, walking over to him.
"I didn't pay attention to the time," Lu Yiwei moved over a bit, making room for Mu Zhengqing to sit down.
He had actually called Mu Zhengqing to wake up, but Mu Zhengqing had mumbled softly for him not to disturb his sleep, so he didn't continue calling.
Don't even mention just not getting up, at that time, even if Mu Zhengqing wanted the stars in the sky, he would find a way to get them for him.
"What should we do now? Aren't the production crew really going to install a camera in my bedroom?" Mu Zhengqing continued to ask.
He didn't dwell on the fact that Lu Yiwei hadn't paid attention to the time. After all, he was the one who overslept, and the main responsibility was on him, not Lu Yiwei.
"There's good news and bad news, which do you want to hear first?" Lu Yiwei asked.
"The bad news," Mu Zhengqing said.
“The bad news is that these people were arranged by Liang Qi to install the cameras,” Lu Yiwei said.
Mu Zhengqing looked at the production crew. No wonder he looked so familiar, they were the same people who came to install the cameras last time.
After hearing the bad news, he no longer wanted to hear the good news. There was no good news for him now.
“But we can choose which room to install the camera in,” seeing Mu Zhengqing looking downcast, Lu Yiwei couldn't bear to see him upset, so he told him the good news directly.
“What do you mean?” Mu Zhengqing asked, raising his head abruptly when he heard this. Could there be a turnaround? Could they avoid installing a camera in the bedroom?
There was indeed a turnaround, but it was impossible not to install a camera in the bedroom.
After confirming that Mu Zhengqing hadn't gotten up by 8:10, Lu Yiwei took Liangqi off his blacklist. He sent a message asking him to think of other ways to replace the camera. Who would have thought Liang Qi would stubbornly refuse, and even came up with a bunch of excuses to put him off.
After listening to Lu Yiwei's explanation, Mu Zhengqing's newly kindled hope was extinguished again.
