Song Mu returned to his temporary home, walking into the house. As he passed the living room while yawning, he noticed everybody else there. “Finally,” Xian Bo dramatically started, “we’ve been waiting for you.”
“Oh, sorry. I had to pick up someone from the airport. The plane landed around midnight.” Song Mu responded.
Chang Min, resting on Ye Xun, shook his head, “It is fine. How was the date?”
Song Mu could not stop the blush covering his cheeks as he rubbed the back of his neck, “It was fine; we have another date.”
“Just fine?” Shao Yuhan questioned with a raised eyebrow, “With the way you blushed, it seemed more than that.” Shao Yuhan almost sounded like Xian Bo.
Waving his hand, Song Mu quickly shook his head, “N-Nope, nothing happened.” Then he started nervously chuckling while slowly walking towards his room, “Well, look at the time, it is very late, and I should sleep soon. Night/morning.”
Song Mu practically ran off, entering his bedroom while closing and locking the door behind him. Once his back hit his door, he let out a sigh of relief for leaving the conversation that could happen.
He already knew if they pushed more, he would have spilled. And Song Mu would rather not talk about what happened with Ren Yi. At least they have another date (although the first is not a date, and the second might or might not be one).
After stepping away from the door, Song Mu got ready to sleep.

“Okay,” Song Mu slowly let out.
“You don’t want to seem too eager and ready to jump when he says it. Sometimes, people love a challenge. Make him wait for you, and don’t even text him for a while; let him go crazy, wondering if you are thinking about him or not. Engrave yourself in his mind.” Shao Yuhan continued.
Song Mu hummed, taking in Shao Yuhan’s advice. It is not bad. He didn’t want to seem too eager and make Ren Yi bored with him. Plus, what Liang Hai told him still railed in his mind: Ren Yi’s relationships do not last.
He wanted him and Ren Yi to last like the relationships he sees in this house.
“I will.” He responded to Shao Yuhan, who nodded his head in approval. After that, Song Mu left the house to his parents.
When he reached his parent’s home, he unlocked the door and walked inside. The aroma of breakfast entered his nose as he followed the invisible cloud trail to the kitchen.
“You’re late. We could have run together, but I had to bring Liang Hai instead.” His father greeted him with a sigh.
Liang Hai was sweating hard while resting his head on the table. He tried eating his food sideways as his hands trembled, causing a few pieces to land on his lap. In conclusion, Liang Hai looked dead.
Song Mu prayed to his best friend for being his scapegoat because he did not want to run with his father. He would rather die.
As Song Mu had a fake apology on his lips, his mother flicked her husband’s forehead while her other hand carried a plate of food. She stuffed the plate with food. “What did I tell you? No talk of exercising at the table.”
His father pouted, “But I wanted to talk about the new hiking gear I purchased this morning.”
“The rules, honey. If I cannot talk about my new hobbies, you cannot speak about exercise.” She countered before setting down the plate in front of an empty chair, “This is for you, son.”
Song Mu was the one who created the rule when he was starting high school. His parents talked about what they love all the time, so he banned it at the table to ensure they spoke about other subjects. It still amazes him that they follow the rule, even though he is gone from the house.
He sat down at the empty seat, grabbing a fork as he started digging in, “Thanks, mom.”
“You’re welcome.” She finally sat down to eat her food.
“I heard that you have someone new in your life.” His father started, causing him to choke on his food.
He glared at the snitch, a.k.a., his best friend, who flinched and decided to play dead for real. “Did you, now?” Song Mu kicked Liang Hai under the table, who groaned and tried bending down to rub his aching leg.
“Really? I hope it is someone better than your ex-boyfriend.” His mother shook her head as she thought of his ex.
The last time Song Mu dated, he was in high school. His ex-boyfriend was sweet at first until he couldn’t take Song Mu showing his other side. He became cruel and told Song Mu he was too controlling. Then, he tried spreading lies about him. But, because he was like a “shadow,” people forgot who he was.
That became the reason why he hated the dom part of him.
“Ugh, that dude was an asshole. If he doesn’t like a dominant, then say so and leave. Not, bring a person down and try fucking with their reputation.” Liang Hai complained. He was also the one to beat Song Mu’s ex-boyfriend up and almost sent him to the hospital.
It was a big problem.
“Language.” Song Mu and his parents simultaneously said before Song Mu’s mother continued with a sigh, “But, I agree. Hopefully, this one is better.”
“This one has a tattoo fetish.” Liang Hai admitted, earning himself another kick. Song Mu intensely glared at Liang Hai. One of the main reasons why he couldn’t hold secrets from his parents is because Liang Hai has a big mouth.
“Oh my,” his mother chuckled before checking on the silently cursing Liang Hai. He was holding onto his leg this time.
His father hummed, “A tattoo fetish, huh? Then, you got this, son.”
Ugh, Song Mu internally groaned; is it too late to run out of this house?
This ex is a bastard ✌ and if we ever see him i hope it’ll for a good old face slapping 😏
I think Song Mu’s parents maybe went to the same parents school with Chang Min’s mom! Poor Liang Hai getting two leg kicks after running with Papa Pecs.
