Traveling always made people engrossed in indulgence, setting aside all kinds of rules and regulations, and trying things you wouldn’t normally try.
Ning You has already received Li Mu’s warning, but still hoped that Li Mu would just kidnap him, so that he wouldn’t have to return to reality.
“How about you try locking me up?” Ning You suggested.
“Do you know what you’re talking about?”
Li Mu turned towards Ning You emotionless, until the deepness in his eyes silently turned into a tenderness.
He pressed the back of Ning You’s neck, raised his chin and leaned over.
Just as their lips were about to touch, the sound of leaves rustling against each other sounded above their heads. Ning You, who was easily frightened, looked up and saw a little squirrel hiding behind a tree trunk, looking at them curiously.
There are several factors that need to be possessed in the mind-set for an end-of-the-road revelry, one of which is not to care about the gaze of others.
Although the little squirrel is not a human being, just like when he took a bath in the open air, Ning You still couldn’t ignore his big bright eyes.
“I’m sorry… I was too abrupt.”
This third party made Ning You seem to have fallen from the fluttering clouds to the naked reality, and his whole person was enveloped in shame. He hurriedly got off Li Mu, put on his shoes and socks, and pretended that nothing had happened.
“There are a lot of squirrels here,” he pointed out.
“That’s the Demon King Squirrel.” Li Mu is much more calm than Ning You, and naturally took over the conversation, “They have been very active recently, preparing food for the winter.”
“Is that so?” Ning You stood up and patted the white sand off his pants.
Thinking back to what he just did, even Ning You himself was startled.
There seemed to be a kind of magic power in this mountain forest, which made him addicted and unable to extricate himself from it.
“Go back?” It’s rare for Li Mu to be thoughtful, and this time he didn’t take the opportunity to tease Ning You, “It’s almost time for dinner.”
Ning You nodded, not daring to look at Li Mu: “Hmm.”
After stepping over the dead tree, they returned along the original road. The returned journey was still unhurried, strolling leisurely among the birch forest.
Li Mu didn’t zip up his jacket, his both hands were casually inserted in his pockets, allowing the strong wind to blow through the clothes and trousers that were wet from Ning You’s feet.
Ning You also put his hands in the pockets of the soft feather jacket, but he wasn’t as casual as Li Mu, his elbows were tightly clamped to his sides, and his chin hidden in the collar of the soft feather jacket.
Li Mu wouldn’t think he was unrestrained, would he?
Ning You is pondering about this question.
But looking at Li Mu’s appearance, he didn’t seem to be very disgusted.
The reason why traveling is a strong setting for flings is because in a fresh environment, people will show a different side of themselves. There are no people who know themselves here, and there is no pressure to restrain themselves. They just need to release as much as they can, and then they are on the verge of getting out of control.
Enjoy the last party before it’s over——it’s not Ning You’s style.
But when you change to an unfamiliar environment, the boundaries suddenly blur.

He still didn’t dare to go too far, just put his hand on the back of Li Mu’s hand, and then secretly observed Li Mu’s reaction.
Li Mu was a little surprised.
He originally thought that Ning You would restrain a little after sobering up, but he didn’t expect that after a while, this white swan would continue to probe again.
“Are you cold?” Li Mu deliberately asked.
Ning You blushed and timidly withdrew his hand.
He really had no reason to put his hand in someone else’s pocket, but just as his hand was about to leave Li Mu’s pocket, a large hand suddenly wrapped around the back of his hand, and then just so naturally took his hand.
“Put it outside if you’re not cold.” Li Mu lowered his arm and took Ning You’s hand and said.
Ning You’s clamped elbows relaxed, but his chin was still hidden in his collar, and the corners of his mouth curved pleasantly.
Back on the mountain, Li Mu began to prepare lunch.
Ning You took his phone and took a picture of the cabin, and many of the images showing Li Mu cooking silhouette.
The rough man is equipped with an apron, the more he looks, the better he looks.
A popular piece of doggerel appeared in Ning You’s mind, and even he found it funny. Obviously an unkempt beard is one of his most unbearable male characteristics, but now it looks inexplicably pleasing to the eye——of course, it’s still not good to put it on others.
Recalling the touch of the unkempt beard on his lips, it’s prickly and coarse. Ning You’s heart bubbled with an itch like a cat’s claw scratching through.
He came behind Li Mu and said, “Li Mu, I want to take a shower.”
Noon is the highest temperature of the day, so he doesn’t have to worry about freezing if he bathes at this time.
Li Mu looked back at Ning You and said, “Go on.” After saying that, he concentrated on the spatula in his hand again.
In fact, Ning You had another thing he wanted to ask for Li Mu’s permission, but seeing Li Mu’s focused appearance, he swallowed the words to his mouth back into his stomach, and then quietly took Li Mu’s plaid shirt from the closet.
The water storage capacity of the electric water heater is limited, and Ning You almost used up the last drop of hot water.
By the time he finished his shower, Li Mu had already prepared lunch and was cleaning up the kitchen countertops. He wrung out the rag and washed his hands with soap. Seeing that Li Mu was about to finish the work in his hands, Ning You hurriedly put his clothes on in the living room, waited quietly to the side of the steps in the entrance hall.
“Come over when you’re done washing…”
“Li Mu, I want to borrow your clothes to wear.”
Li Mu couldn’t finish the second half of his sentence, because as soon as he turned around, he saw Ning You wearing his plaid shirt, his feet bare naked on the carpet, cautiously awaiting his reaction.
What a great move.
“Where are your own clothes?” Li Mu took off his apron and walked towards Ning You.
“I’ve been wearing it for two days.” Ning You said evasively.
This is not the first time Ning You wore Li Mu’s shirt, but doing it intentionally and unintentionally gives a completely different feeling. The unintentional is that even if someone wore his shirt, Li Mu had no temper, But if it was intentional, then the swan should be punished for misbehaving.
Li Mu held Ning You’s buttocks and carried him to the edge of the dining table. He put his hands by his side and said, “Daxiaojie, have you never seduced anyone before?”
“Huh?” Ning You thought he’d done something clumsy and became nervous all of a sudden.
“You’re not a seducer,” he said, “You’re giving off a vibe of purity, you know?”
Two blushes appeared on Ning You’s face. He really wasn’t good at this kind of thing, but he didn’t expect it to appear vulgar in Li Mu’s eyes.
“Put your pants on.” Li Mu said and straightened up, making a move to leave.
Ning You hurriedly hooked his calves around Li Mu’s waist and asked in a panic, “Li Mu, don’t you have any feelings for me?”
He could feel that there was a spark between the two of them. But for some reason, Li Mu didn’t want to get close to each other like he did.
Li Mu’s hands were propped up to Ning You’s side again. He looked at Ning You for a while, and finally said helplessly: “No.”
“Then why are you,” Ning You asked, “so rational?” Just like the debate between the two, Li Mu is always able to do something skillfully and easily.
Li Mu didn’t answer immediately, but looked blankly at the ceiling and sighed, then retracted his gaze. Slowly he said, “…because I don’t want to hate to part with you, can I?”
The deeper you fall, the more painful it will be when you pull away.
Ning You is the one who left, he will return to another environment with enough things to distract him. It’s only a matter of time before Li Mu is forgotten. In the end, this experience may just be an ordinary travel memory.
But Li Mu is different.
He was the one who was left behind, and this was where he lived, where he worked, and where there was Ning You’s shadow. He could already foresee that it would take him a long time to adapt to the days after Ning You left.
For Ning You, this place is just an unexpected episode in his life, yet everything here is Li Mu’s whole life.
Ning You understood the meaning of Li Mu’s words. He cowered for a moment, but his selfishness still made him whisper: “But I think you hate to part with me.”
“Do you know how bad you are?” said Li Mu. “You left me the picture because you want me to miss you every day?”
“No.” Ning You shook his head.
“I won’t forget what you look like.” He looked at Li Mu and said, “But I’m afraid you’ll forget me.”
Ning You isn’t very good at hiding his emotions. He will open up about everything, even if it’s bad, he is confident that Li Mu will spoil him.
Li Mu’s eyes sank, and he didn’t want to restrain anymore, so he bit Ning You’s lip hard. He pried open his closed teeth and greedily sucked in the air until Ning You let out a suffocating whimper, and he reluctantly parted from Ning You.
“Are you still eating?” Li Mu asked with a gasp.
Ning You shook his head, a bright red appeared in the corner of his eyes.
Li Mu carried Ning You to the bed and unbuttoned the shirt belonging to him, leaving the white swan uncovered and exposed before his eyes. Sure enough, just as he expected, the bad swan wasn’t wearing a figleaf.
The skin of the two of them is close to each other, forming a distinct color difference. The rough hands wander on the white and tender skin, and wherever it goes, there is a fiery heat that cannot be quenched.
Ning You had a premonition of what was about to happen. While he was faintly looking forward to it, he propped Li Mu’s naked chest with his hand and said, “Li Mu, you didn’t take a shower.”
“Why,” Li Mu bit Ning You’s neck, “No sex without a bath?”
The vulgar words suddenly penetrated Ning You’s ears, he blushed, pushed Li Mu away and said, “No, you’re very dirty.”
“Is that so?” Li Mu laughed and buried his head in Ning You’s chest, “I have to make you even dirtier.”
From the recognition to now, Li Mu has been accommodating Ning You because he himself is not a calculating person. But this time he didn’t want to spoil the white swan anymore, he just wanted to bully him until he cried.
“I don’t want to learn to ride a horse.” Ning You said with a sobbing voice.
He underestimated the formidable power of wild species, and he used up all the treasures just by riding on it.
“Do you want to give up halfway?” Teacher Li asked coldly.
“Don’t……”
Riding a horse can be regarded as Ning You’s childhood regret. After he grew up, he never gave up halfway like he did when he was a child. He didn’t want to give up so easily, so he gritted his teeth, straightened his back, sat firmly on the wild horse, and asked, “What am I going to do next?”
“First, hit the waves.” Li Mu said.
Hitting the waves is the basic training action of the rider at the beginning, which is less difficult than pressing the waves. The rider needs to vibrate up and down on the horse’s back, keep his legs close to the belly of the horse, and make a standing and sitting motion.
The horse’s speed was not fast, Ning You moved his waist, sometimes standing up, sometimes sitting down, and soon found a suitable rhythm.
“How was it?” Li Mu asked.
“En.” Ning You nodded, “I seem to… fit it very well.”
“Don’t be proud.” Teacher Li slapped Ning You’s ass, “The next step is pressing the waves.”
Pressing the waves is when a horse is walking at a fast pace. In addition to the standing and sitting of hitting the waves movement, it also needs to match the vibration frequency of the horse’s back and ride as close to the saddle as possible. The key to pressing waves is to relax the ass and straighten the upper body, but the waist must be soft.
The horse accelerated his running speed, Ning You didn’t find the rhythm at first, the roots between his legs were extremely painful from the slap, and the wild horse on rampage also made him feel uncomfortable.
“How are you?” Li Mu controlled the speed of the horse and asked Ning You.
“It hurts a little.” Ning You bit his lower lip and tenaciously looked at Li Mu and said, “Come again.”
This time, Ning You first propped both hands on the back of the horse, matching his waist to adapt to the impact of the horse. After a while, he completely relaxed and found the best way to press the waves.
“Very good.” Teacher Li praised, “The next step is to push the waves.”
Pushing waves is a difficult movement when a horse is running. It’s necessary to fully grasp the rhythm of the horse’s running, keep the shoulders still, and slide the pelvis back and forth against the saddle to make a pushed movement.
When the rider has completely mastered the pushing wave, the feeling of riding the horse wildly is very enjoyable and comfortable.
After the final sprint, the wild horse slowly stopped. Ning You exhaustedly turned over and dismounted, lying on Li Mu’s chest and whispered, “Li Mu, I like riding horses.”

I’m just riding, how can I not understand it (?)??
