Chapter 16 – Sweetheart from the Sky: The Gentle CEO’s Sweet Kiss (16)
There was no way to back out now.
Between drawing blood and cutting his hair, Bai Mo had to choose one.
After much internal suffering, he finally chose to cut his hair.
He never thought that he, the most beautiful snow ferret, would one day end up bald.
With teary eyes, he looked at He Yuchi, holding his hand with a choked sob:
“If I become ugly, will you still like me, Brother Yuchi?”
The male lead loved to stroke his hair the most.
Without his silky, jet-black locks, all Yuchi would touch is a boiled egg.
“Of course I will.”
He Yuchi gently pinched the boy’s red nose.
“No matter what you look like, as long as you’re still you, I will always love you.”
“Don’t overthink it.”
Bai Mo had a wild imagination, and He Yuchi knew it well.
Seeing his reaction, he could already guess what was going on in that little head of his.
Bai Mo rubbed his head against He Yuchi’s shoulder, taking advantage of the moment while he still had hair.
Might as well steal a little warmth now—
Because once his hair was gone, he’d become a monk ferret.
And monks couldn’t eat meat.
They had to abandon all worldly desires.
Wuwuwu~~
While Bai Mo was mourning his fate, Dan Sihe had already finished drawing his blood.
Then, the nurse called Bai Mo’s name.
His whole body stiffened as he turned to look—
At the door of the sampling room, a sweet-smiling nurse stood waiting.
In her hand was a sharp, gleaming pair of scissors.
She waved at him.
“Come here, little cutie~ It’s your turn~”
To Bai Mo, she suddenly looked like she had two red devil horns sprouting from her head.
A tempting disguise to lure him in—
And the moment she caught him, she would tear off her mask and whisper in the sweetest voice:
“We’re shaving it all off.”
“Xiao Bobao, I’m done for—I’M DONE FOR!”
Meanwhile, the system, who was still digging through Dan Sihe’s hidden storyline, looked up.
A soft, fluffy little snow ferret launched itself into her arms, clinging to her like a panda cub.
Bobao system, completely confused, instinctively responded: “Don’t worry. Eighteen years later, you’ll be a fine ferret again.”
Bai Mo: “……”
Wow.
Xiao Bobao, you’ve changed.
You don’t love me anymore.
Did you already find a new host?!
His crying got even louder, soaking the panda-furred system with tears.
But no matter what, under Dan Sihe’s anticipation, Mother He’s encouragement, and He Yuchi’s gentle reassurance—
Bai Mo walked into the sampling room, his expression full of resignation.
Sitting in the chair, he squeezed his eyes shut tightly.
He refused to accept his bald-headed fate.
As long as he didn’t see it, then it wasn’t real.
Snip. Snip.
The sharp scissors made only two quick snips—
It hurt a little, but in less than a minute, the sample was collected.
Before Bai Mo’s tears could even fall, the nurse gently informed him that he was free to leave.
He touched his thick hair, trying to find where it had been cut—
But he couldn’t feel a difference at all.
His teary, wide eyes met the nurse’s gaze in suspicious disbelief.
“…That’s it?”
The nurse smiled sweetly.
“What else did you expect?~”
“Actually, I should’ve plucked the hair out instead~”
“Wanna go bald? I can help~”
Realizing the nurse was joking, Bai Mo immediately covered his head with both hands and shook his head like a rattle drum.
“No, no, no—definitely not!”
Then, he bolted out of the room.
The nurse chuckled as she sealed the freshly plucked hair sample.
The previous nurse had been partly mistaken—
To test the DNA properly, the hair needed the follicles attached.
But seeing how scared the boy was, she spared him from hearing the horrifying truth—
As long as the sample was collected, it didn’t matter how.
Bai Mo had no idea he had just been treated like a frightened child.
With his eyes still red, he walked out—
And the three people waiting on the bench immediately tensed up.
“Mo Mo, don’t cry. Does your arm hurt? Auntie will make you some little cookies when we get home.”
Mother He assumed that Bai Mo had ended up having his blood drawn instead. Seeing how scrunched up his face was, she figured it must have hurt terribly.
Bai Mo shook his head and buried himself in He Yuchi’s arms.
He took a deep breath, letting the fresh scent of leaves drive away the lingering smell of disinfectant in his nose.
He Yuchi gently stroked the boy’s hair, his voice soft and encouraging: “Mo Mo did so well.”
He wasn’t bald.
Brother Yuchi still liked him.
He was still the prettiest little snow ferret.
Since He Yuchi loved running his fingers through Bai Mo’s hair, Bai Mo had convinced himself that his greatest asset was his soft, silky fur—
As long as he had his hair, he wouldn’t have to break up with his boyfriend.
The boy’s arms tightened around the man’s waist, and his hand sneaked beneath his shirt, grazing over his firm, smooth muscles.
His poor little heart had suffered a trauma—
And only snuggles, kisses, and cuddles could heal it.
He Yuchi’s body tensed for a moment, but he quickly caught Bai Mo’s misbehaving hand and whispered into his ear: “Let’s play when we get home.”
Bai Mo’s eyes lit up as he looked up in surprise, his gaze tinged with shyness:
“Really?”
Ever since Ning Ning had walked in on them, they hadn’t had a single kiss.
Thinking about the man’s strong arms and toned body, the boy suddenly felt a little too flustered.
His imagination ran wild, and his face turned a deep, embarrassed red.
After reading the “Romantic Phrases Collection” left by the Supreme God to comfort the little snow ferret, Bobao system went silent: “……”
Wait, is this something I can read for free?! (Suddenly excited)
The test results would take three to seven working days to be released.
Since Dan Sihe was busy with work, he bid farewell to Mother He and the others at the hospital entrance.
Before leaving, he glanced at Bai Mo and He Yuchi, who were glued together like they couldn’t bear to be apart for even a second.
The more he looked at He Yuchi, the more he found him an eyesore.
From the moment he laid eyes on Bai Mo, he had a strong feeling—Bai Mo was his long-lost younger brother.
Who knew how much suffering Mo Mo had endured just to survive?
Yet before he could compensate him, bond with him as brothers—
Mo Mo had already been sweet-talked away by another man?!
Unacceptable.
In the past two years, Dan Sihe had focused his work overseas and paid little attention to domestic affairs.
He wasn’t particularly familiar with He Yuchi, but—
How many wealthy heirs actually fall for poor nobodies?
What if He Yuchi was just toying with his innocent little Mo Mo?
Although the official test results weren’t out yet, Bobao system had secretly compared the two samples—
The result?
Mo Mo and Dan Sihe were indeed biological brothers.
She informed Bai Mo, and for the first time, he actually looked at Dan Sihe properly.
Dan Sihe’s frown deepened as he stared disapprovingly at He Yuchi.
But just as Bai Mo turned to him with a shy, soft smile, his tough-guy heart melted into a puddle.
His hands itched with the urge to pull He Yuchi away and take his place—
Letting Bai Mo cling to him instead.
But unfortunately, the official results weren’t out yet, so he had no grounds to take Bai Mo away.
Especially when He Yuchi gently kissed Bai Mo’s forehead, Dan Sihe tightened his fists, his self-restraint pushed to its limit.
Only after Mother He’s gentle urging did he finally drive away.
Meanwhile, Bobao system happily munched on melon seeds, thoroughly enjoying the drama.
Dan Sihe’s reaction was completely understandable.
His dislike for He Yuchi was nothing personal—
Just your typical “big brother hates his brother-in-law” scenario.
After all, he never even had a chance to experience Mo Mo’s affection, but the male lead had already swooped in and stolen it first.
How could he not be pissed?
Ah, Mo Mo is truly impressive!
He unlocked a hidden storyline again!
More energy points incoming!
Now…
How should I spend them?
