The Deacon of Aries in the Cute Animal Series

The next day, Ferranz used his private airport to transfer Xia Mu to London, because he always hated the complicated and lengthy procedures of the army.Although the positions of the two are completely different, Xia Mu can still see the shadow of his student days in Franz.

──Narcissistic, arrogant, unruly, he is such a wayward guy.

The private airport set up on the Irish border is not large in scale, but it has quite complete facilities. This is also one of the properties of the Salzwaite family.Walking on the bright and pleasant marble floor of the terminal, Xia Mu silently glanced at his surroundings.

Ferlandz walked leisurely in front of him, and two accompanying officers followed him from left to right, surrounded by guarded soldiers, and the security was more stringent than he had imagined.

He originally thought that there would be an opportunity to take advantage of the delivery through private channels, but now it seems that the goddess of fate is not on his side.

The last glimmer of hope was also dashed.

However, at this moment, a sweet voice ran through the entire hall and rushed towards him.

"Major~~~~~~"

Everyone was startled by the sound, and Ferlandz raised his head in surprise, and saw a red-haired figure running briskly towards them.Professor Bella Suffrin, full of energy, was holding a small suitcase and waving to them happily.

"Why are you here?" Ferlandz obviously didn't expect Su Fulin's appearance, and stepped forward to block her, preventing her from approaching Xia Mu.

"I rented a helicopter to attend an academic conference at a nearby university, but I couldn't find a place to land, so I borrowed your airport. Everyone here is so enthusiastic~" Su Fulin explained, looking back over Ferranz's shoulder , "Why is Professor Xia Mu here?"

Xia Mu stood in the back, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, as expected, foxes all over the world looked the same.As soon as they appear, the serious and tense atmosphere will be swept away.

He believed Su Fulin's words, and Yin Shu had done many similar mindless things.When they foxes want to take a helicopter, they never think deeply about where they will land later.

Apparently Franz had the same idea as him.

"We have a private matter, don't disturb the professor," he pulled Su Fulin aside with a headache on his face, "Where do you have a meeting? I'll send someone to take you there."

"Thank you Major, you are too kind~" Su Fulin didn't ask much, and seemed to be very obedient.

However, when she was walking away, she suddenly turned her head and gave Xia Mu a meaningful smile.Xia Mu's heart almost missed a beat, and he seemed to be able to see something from Su Fulin's smile.

At this time, Ferranz ordered the accompanying officer to take him first and guide him through the security check into the boarding channel.

At the end of the passage is a spacious apron, and several small passenger planes are parked nearby.The three of them walked towards one of the planes, and within a few steps, they saw a young man who looked like an officer running in the distance.

The other party stopped in front of them and gave a military salute.

"Urgent notice, due to mechanical failure, you have to change to another plane." Half of his face was hidden under the shadow of his military cap, so he couldn't see clearly.

"The major didn't tell us," the officer standing in front of Xia Mu was a little puzzled, "His consent must be obtained first..."

Before he finished speaking, the opponent suddenly punched him in the abdomen without warning.

"What are you doing!" Another officer immediately drew his gun and fired, but was kicked in the jaw.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Before Xia Mu saw clearly how the two were knocked down, the young man grabbed his wrist and fled in another direction.

Before the chasing soldiers arrived, they had already fled to a helicopter. In the chaos, Xia Mu almost fell into the cabin. Before he could stand still, the young man in military uniform turned around and hugged him tightly.

Raindrops of kisses fell on his cheeks and lips one after another, and the young man kissed him madly, his arms clasped tightly around his waist.Xia Mu was so out of breath that he accidentally knocked off the military cap on the young man's head while struggling.

Soft black hair hangs down from the young man's forehead, and underneath is a pair of intoxicating black pupils. Someone whom he thought he would never see again is standing in front of him and hugging him.

It was Bai Xiao, Xia Mu had already recognized him when he spoke just now.

"Hey~ Can we save the hot kiss of the long-lost reunion for a while? The chasers are coming soon~"

At this time, a teasing whistle came from the driver's seat in front, and a red-haired young man Xia Mu had never seen before was turning around and looking at them with a smirk.From his face, you can easily distinguish the unique appearance of the red fox, and it seems to be Su Fulin's clan.

Bai Xiao let go of Xia Mu and fastened his seat belt for him, and the helicopter immediately wobbled into the air.Amidst the roar of the propellers, Xia Mu saw Ferlandz chasing after him angrily.

But it was too late.

Helicopters sent them all the way out of Ireland, out of Europe, all the way to the border between Mongolia and Russia, and it took dozens of hours of flight to reach their destination.

When he jumped off the plane and finally returned to the ground, Xia Mu was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

They came to a boundless grassland, where groups of cattle and sheep were grazing leisurely.

The red-haired young man driving the helicopter enthusiastically blew kisses to them, and the propellers soon roared into the sky and disappeared into the depths of the sky.

The pasture suddenly became extremely silent, Xia Mu stared at the direction where the helicopter was going away, and looked back at the grassland.

As far as the eye can see, there are several small wooden houses near the grassland, and white clouds float in the distance. The green of the grass and the blue of the sky form a line at the end of the sight.

It was winter, and the grass on the ground was a little sparse, but Xia Mu could imagine what a charming green sea would become here in spring.

"This is...the ranch?" he asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, how about it, is it similar to that ranch in England?" Bai Xiao replied with a smile.

The ranch he mentioned was the place where Xia Mu would go to play every holiday when he was a boy.Bai Xiao, a little sheep who was young at that time and could not yet become a human, also met him there for the first time.

Looking at the fairytale-like leisurely beauty in front of him, he seemed to have returned to the boyhood that had never returned.The scent of green grass that penetrated into his heart made him feel comfortable and didn't want to move. He just wanted to stand here forever and merge with the sky, forgetting all the troublesome things.

Slender arms came around from behind, and Bai Xiao encircled his waist.

"Don't worry, this is the territory of the in-laws of the White Fox Clan, so it's very safe."

"White Fox Clan? Is it related to Yin Shu?"

"Yes, I was able to save you thanks to him. He seemed to have anticipated that you would be in danger, and helped me make various preparations so that I could use the White Fox Clan's intelligence network and transportation network at any time, as well as Help from the Red Fox Clan." Bai Xiao said with a smile, "I can't explain the details in a few words, so you don't have to ask. I have already arranged everything, and we will live together here from now on."

Xia Mu said sorry in a low voice, it was because of his negligence and incompetence that he caused so much trouble.

"There's no need to apologize. I've already prepared for it. As long as I'm alive, I'll always be ready to fight for you and not let anyone hurt you."

"……Thanks……"

"You're welcome. Living carefree with you is my only wish since I was a child. But if you really want to thank me, just make a promise for me."

"What guarantee?"

"forget the past."

"What do you mean by forgetting the past?" Xia Mu felt a little uneasy, and turned around to see the young man's dark eyes staring at him seriously.

"It's what you understand, forget your research, forget your identity as a scientist, forget all your entanglements with the Netherlands and the military, forget everything." Bai Xiao said word by word.

"No! It's impossible!" Xia Mu flatly refused, "I still have a lot to do!"

"Forget about them," the young man said in a gentle but firm tone, "You are not an opponent of the military or the Netherlands, and neither am I. All we can do is protect ourselves."

"but I……"

"Don't say but, you've done too much over the years, it's time to rest."

"I can't just be like this...Bai Xiao!" Xia Mu still wanted to refuse, but saw Bai Xiao suddenly kneel down in front of him.He hugged the young man in panic, and knelt down on the grass with him.

"Bai Xiao...don't be like this..." He tried to pull Bai Xiao up with trembling hands, but he stubbornly remained motionless.

"Please..." he begged softly, "I can't take it anymore...losing you again..."

"do not talk like that……"

"I was really scared when you disappeared, I'm not as strong as you think..."

"..."

"Please, promise me...don't leave me alone..."

"...Bai Xiao...you get up first and then talk..." Xia Mu was flustered and sad, not knowing what to do.

"If you don't agree, I won't get up." Bai Xiao shook his head, the corners of his eyes were slightly red.

"you……"

"Promise me, swear on me!"

"Swear... what oath..."

"Swear to me that you will never return to Europe, never get involved in any research in the field of biology, give up your identity as a scientist, and live with me on this ranch for the rest of your life!"

Xia Mu gritted his teeth, this oath took away everything in his life, but the young man kneeling in front of him was so pitiful, it made his heart ache.

Making a painful oath, or hurting Bai Xiao's heart, he didn't know which choice would make him regret more.But to make others suffer, and to keep the pain for himself, he will always choose the latter.

Biting his lips tightly, and exhausting all his strength, he repeated Bai Xiao's words with difficulty, word by word.

The young man looked up at him, with a gentle expression gradually appearing in his eyes, and hugged him violently.

Xia Mu was hugged by him in a daze, staring blankly into the distance.The embrace of the young man was warm and warm, but he felt the sadness and sadness that he had never felt before.

That icy chill gradually filled his whole body.

From this day on, the name Xia Mu completely disappeared from the European biological world.

"Master, good morning, it's time to get up." The soft call signaled the arrival of a new day, Xia Mu opened his eyes sleepily, and received Bai Xiao's gentle kiss.

He simply took a shower, and when he came to the living room, a sumptuous breakfast was already waiting for him, and Bai Xiao was also sitting at the table.

It has been more than half a year since they came to the ranch. The two bought the ranch not long ago, making Xia Mu a leisurely rancher, living a relaxed and comfortable life every day.

After breakfast, Bai Xiao deftly tidied the dining table.After everything was tidied up, there was a bang, and the handsome young man disappeared in front of Xia Mu, replaced by a beautiful tall sheep.

This is Bai Xiao's sheep form. When grazing, four legs are much more convenient than two legs.

Bai Xiao, in the shape of a sheep, has huge curved horns, and a body of snow-white thick soft wool, with a majestic expression.By sheep standards, he has a stunning dashing appearance.

When Xia Mu saw this majestic sheep for the first time, he couldn't help but admire him.

"Baa~" the beautiful young sheep called Xia Mu in a low voice, and after licking his hand, he slowly walked out of the house, making a majestic cry, and walking slowly towards the flock of sheep.The sheep scattered all over the pasture heard his voice and gathered together to wait for his order.

Now Bai Xiao seems to be the leader of the flock.As long as he is there, Xia Mu doesn't have to worry about any problems at the ranch.

Under Bai Xiao's order, the sheep huddled into a lively group, bleating and bleating, and went to the distant pasture to graze.Xia Mu watched them from a distance, and lay down comfortably in the chair to bask in the sun.

After taking a nap for a while, the sheep came back in a mighty way.

Xia Mu stretched his waist to meet him, and when he saw his master, the sheep ran towards him, bleating and surrounded him.The animals are a little jealous of Bai Xiao, but they have an extremely close relationship with Xia Mu. Whenever they see him, they all flock to him and act like a baby.

Xia Mu smiled and stroked the furry heads of the sheep, and stretched out his hands to let them lick his palm.As if this was not enough, a few sheep bit his trouser waist and clothes corners from behind, bleating and screaming for him to squat down and kiss his face.

Among so many tall adult sheep, there is also a small group of white hairs squeezed in the middle, which is making immature bleats and calling for its owner. It is the youngest child in the flock, Sheep Xiaobai.

Xiaobai is not yet two years old this year, but he no longer has the company of his mother sheep.Xiaobai's mother passed away due to dystocia when giving birth to Xiaobai, leaving only this lonely and helpless lamb.

Because there is no mother, Xiaobai has always been loved by everyone in the ranch, and Xia Mu is no exception.This cute little sheep is like the most precious child to him.

"Is Xiaobai full?" He leaned over and picked up the little sheep, hugged him and kissed him.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of his bending down, the sheep rushed up to kiss him, licking his face with their soft tongues.

Just then, a stern voice came from outside the flock.

"What are you doing?!"

Hearing this sound, the sheep immediately stopped moving in unison as if they were electrocuted.

Bai Xiao, with a sullen face, was standing behind them.

Seeing the leader, the sheep hurriedly stepped aside and parted ways. Bai Xiao, who had turned back into a human, strode up to Xia Mu, grabbed him, and protected him behind him.

"How many times have I told you that the master belongs to me alone, you are not allowed to kiss him!" Standing in front of the sheep, Bai Xiao seriously warned.

Facing the angry Bai Xiao, the sheep showed fearful expressions, but they still looked unwilling.

Their leader is really a guy with a strong desire for monopoly.

"Bai Xiao, don't scare everyone..." Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two sides, Xia Mu wanted to come up to persuade him, but Bai Xiao suddenly turned around and put an arm around his waist, raised his face with one hand and kissed him hard.

The flock suddenly became commotion, and the sheep watched the passionate kiss between the owner and the leader with different expressions.

After nearly half a minute, Bai Xiao finally released Xia Mu contentedly, and licked the corner of his lips.

"See, the master is mine, and only I can kiss," he warned with an undeniably strong tone, "If anyone disagrees, we will have a duel."

"Baa~baa~" the sheep sneered, as if they were mocking Bai Xiao and Xia Mu, "Can you be any more naughty?"

But no sheep dared to stand up. As early as when he first moved into the ranch, Bai Xiao defeated all the animals in the ranch by fighting duels and established himself as the leader.

At this time, Xia Mu's ears were completely red. This was not the first time something like this had happened. He scolded Bai Xiao several times, but it was useless.

"Okay, okay, let's go back to the sheepfold." He waved everyone away awkwardly.

"Baa~baa~" the sheep bleated in a playful tone and scattered, only Xia Mu and Bai Xiao were left beside the fence, and there was also a dwarf lamb.

The naive Xiaobai still doesn't quite understand what happened. Why did everyone laugh at Brother Touyang and his master after they kissed each other?

Seeing the confused look of Xiao Yang standing still, Bai Xiao put away the arrogant and indifferent expression just now, and smiled slightly.

"No one else can kiss the master, but Xiaobai is an exception." Like a gentle and considerate brother, he bent down and picked up the cute little sheep, and lifted him in front of Xia Mu, "Xiaobai can kiss."

"Baa~baa~" The little sheep stretched out its soft tongue, and approached its owner with its nose, smelling the familiar and pleasant smell of the owner.

"It's so itchy," Xia Mu smiled, took the lamb from Bai Xiao's hand, and kissed its little face, "Xiao Bai is the most obedient."

"Baa~" Burying his face in his master's warm chest, Xiao Bai cried softly, feeling extremely happy.

Although there is no mother, being hugged by a gentle master is no different from being in the arms of a mother.Coupled with the serious but reliable brother Touyang standing by his side, it is like a happy family of three.

Holding the soft little sheep, Xia Mu also felt embarrassed to be angry with Bai Xiao.

As the leader of the ranch animals and the head sheep of the flock, Bai Xiao has always presented a domineering and majestic image; but when facing young animals, he has always loved them very much. A good leader with integrity.

But Xia Mu still didn't forget his master's identity, and softly criticized a few words.

"How many times have I told you that you are not allowed to kiss me in front of others, and you are not allowed to scare everyone. Have you taken it to heart?"

"They were the ones who were disobedient first," Bai Xiao retorted unconvinced, "If I hadn't reminded you, you would have been robbed long ago."

"Don't be so narrow-minded." Xia Mu sighed.

"It's because you are too unconscious."

"What consciousness?"

"It belongs only to my own self-awareness."

As Bai Xiao spoke, he kissed Xia Mu on the face, then deliberately stretched his arms around his waist, passed in front of the sheep as if showing off, and embraced him into the house.

Xia Mu had no choice but to smile bitterly, Bai Xiao was becoming more and more disobedient to him in this regard.

"I'm off to work, you and Xiaobai can play together." Ignoring the master's dissatisfaction with him, after entering the house, Bai Xiao forced him to sit down on the sofa, "I'll be back at noon to cook."

"Don't you need my help?"

"I'll call you when needed."

Having said that, the chances that Bai Xiao "needs the master's help" are negligible.

Although Xia Mu is nominally a rancher, most of the daily work is still done by Bai Xiao.As promised before, he has been doing his best to cherish and protect his beloved master.

only……

With the sound of the door being closed, Bai Xiao went to work.

Xia Mu was the only one left in the house, and the little sheep in his arms who couldn't speak.

The surroundings became quiet.

It's just... He is often like this, left at home alone, doing nothing.

"Meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is" Seeing the lonely expression of the master, Xiaobai hurriedly yelled softly, licking the master's face with his soft tongue.

"Be good, Xiaobai..." Xia Mu sighed and touched Xiaobai's head, leaning weakly on the sofa.

Once Bai Xiao is not around, the smile will disappear from his face, and his whole body will become lifeless.

As long as Bai Xiao is not around, he feels very lonely.

At first, life on the ranch did give him an unprecedented sense of freshness and ease.Here he no longer needs to be tired from work, he can sleep until he wakes up naturally every day, and after waking up, he can eat the breakfast made by Bai Xiao himself.

After breakfast, he wandered around the pasture, played with the animals, and breathed the sweet and fresh air of the country, and spent the day comfortably; in the evening, he was greeted with a rich dinner and a steaming bath.After filling his stomach and washing away the tiredness of the day, he and Bai Xiao will embrace each other intimately and sleep.

Every day, I live such a life, carefree, but boring.

Ever since he vowed not to get involved in the scientific world, Bai Xiao said things like "you don't need these things anymore", swept out his academic books and experimental equipment as garbage, and took away all his hobbies.

He is only in his 30s and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. It is time for him to do his best to work hard and achieve more achievements.However, in order to avoid the powerful enemy, he should bear the burden of humiliation, give up the research on the genetic map, and spend most of the rest of his life on this ranch, playing with animals all day long like an old man in his twilight years. Waiting for the moment when the fire of life burns out?

He shouldn't, but he has no choice, because this is the oath he personally made to Bai Xiao.

If you choose this path, you can't regret it, right?

***

Today's dinner is vegetable porridge, which is delicious and easy to digest. The tempting aroma proves that Bai Xiao's cooking skills are refined.Since coming to the ranch, he often finds time to study nutritious and delicious meals.

Of course, all these things were contributed to Xia Mu's stomach, not only cooking, Bai Xiao's whole life revolved around him, and everything he did was also for his better happiness.

Compared with Bai Xiao's huge contribution, Xia Mu's own thoughts are too embarrassing to speak out.

"By the way, I have something to tell you," Bai Xiao said during the meal, "Mr. Chu Yan just called and said that he wants to bring his future wife over next week."

The Chu family where Chu Yan lives is the in-laws of the Baihu clan, and has been protecting the safety of Xia Mu and Bai Xiao.The Chu family had a tradition of intermarrying with the white fox clan since ancient times. When Xia Mu heard the word "madame", the chopsticks in Xia Mu's hand froze in mid-air.

"That lady... is from the White Fox Clan..."

Bai Xiao nodded silently, there was no sound in the room for a while, and the two of them thought of the same thing.

Yin Shu.

Since the shooting incident at the University of St. Andrews that year, Yin Shu's whereabouts have been unknown, and Xia Mu has always been concerned about him.

He was lucky, hoping to get clues from his clan.

However, the world is really so small.

On the day Chu Yan brought his wife-to-be to the ranch, when Xia Mu saw the young man named Yin Hu, he almost blurted out and called him Yin Shu.

Although not as beautiful as Yin Shu, Yin Hu's slender appearance, light footsteps when walking, playful eyes with a slight smile, and those beautiful dark blue eyes... are almost exactly the same as Yin Shu.

Xia Mu was stunned.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of Chu Yan and Yin Hu staying overnight at the ranch, he instructed Bai Xiao to talk to Yin Hu.However, Yin Hu seems unwilling to mention his identity more, and refuses to disclose any information.

Xia Mu was disappointed and unwilling, until after the two left the ranch, he still missed Yin Hu and always wanted to see him again.

Not long after, it coincided with a charity party held by the business community in the city, and because Xia Mu had been donating money to charity organizations, Xia Mu also got an invitation letter.Thinking that members of the Chu family might also be present, he brought Bai Xiao to the banquet.

At that time, he did not expect that this small banquet kicked off the series of events that followed.
