Comeback Of The Abandoned Wife Chapter 31: He Is So Cute

Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“Before taking bath, I would like to ask you some questions.” Wu Ruo showed Numu the prescription that his father had been using along with his father's healthy problem, “my father has begun to heal after a few days of herbal bath. Do you think if there is any improvement I can make? My concern is that his spiritual land situation is still reluctant.”

If there was 70 percent chance to save his father, he wished he could make sure his father could be 100 percent recovered.

Taking a good look at the prescription, Numu's eyes sparkled brightly, “good for you! Where did you get such a secret prescription?”

“…” Wu Ruo.

How about telling him that both of them worked together to come up with such a prescription in last life?

“It is a great prescription. I a.s.sure you that your father can be fully healed. Whoever creates the prescription must be a one-and-only genius. I wish I could compete with him and see who is better at medical skills, him or me. Wu Ruo, do you know him? And where is he?”

“…” Wu Ruo.

You are the creator. Do you compete with yourself?

Numu said as he went silent, “you can't tell?”

“Not that I can't tell, but I don't know where he is now.”

“What a pity! Do you know his name?” asked Numu.

“He didn't tell his name when he gave the prescription. If I ever see him again, I will certainly introduce him to you.”

“Fine.”

“I am thinking to add Spirit-aggregation Herb into my father's herbal bath after a 30-day treatment. If Spirit-aggregation Herb does work, I will try Spirit-cohesion Elixir. What do you think?”

“That's what I am thinking too.” Numu nodded at the prescription and asked Wu Ruo, “do you know medical skills?”

“A little.” Wu Ruo was being modest.

“Maybe more than a little.” Numu laughed out loud.

Returning the prescription to Wu Ruo and said, “let's go to prepare the herbal bath now.”

Putting the prescription back to the Shadow s.p.a.ce, Wu Ruo said, “should we need to prepare a big pot that can hold me first?”

“When you were off to watch drama show, I had servants prepared it.” Numu and Wu Ruo came to the bathroom next to their room, “you can go in when the water is hot.”

He opened the herbal packet that had been there before and poured it into the pot.

Wu Ruo got goose b.u.mps when he saw the different sorts of worms, “are you saying that I need to soak with them?”

“They may look disgusting, but they are precious medicinal materials. If you can't bear with them, wait outside for my signal when the water is hot enough. It's about lunch time. You can come back after lunch.”

Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi felt sorry for leaving Numu alone with everything just for lunch. Therefore, they decided to wait outside.

When the water was hot enough, Numu sent s.h.i.+jiu and s.h.i.+yuan to get Wu Ruo in.

“Take off all your clothes.” Numu said.

s.h.i.+yuan and s.h.i.+jiu took off Wu Ruo's clothes right away.

Wu Ruo trembled out of coldness but his face was heating up. It was the first time he was naked in front of Numu. Of course he was a little shy.

“Help him into the pot.” Numu told s.h.i.+yuan, “be careful of the wet floor. Wu Ruo, take the ladder I make.”

Before he finished the sentence, Wu Ruo whose feet had already reached into the water stumbled backward, “Ah!”

“Be careful!” Numu hurried forward and supported him on the back.

At the same time, the bathroom door was quickly opened.

It was Hei Xuanyi who openend the door. Wu Ruo was shy and angry so that he splashed the water with his feet onto Hei Xuanyi.

“Get out! Hei Xuanyi.” He was irritated.

He had never been seen like this in last or this life.

Hei Xuanyi's face sunk.

Numu was so mad at Wu Ruo who had wasted the precious medicine that he spanked Wu Mu and said, “don't waist the precious medicinal materials.”

“…” Wu Ruo was so embarra.s.sed to sit into the pot quickly. His face was burning hotter than the water.

Numu teased him, “you are both men. It won't kill you just with one look. Besides, he is your husband. You have been naked to each other. I don't see why you are so shy.”

“Master s.h.i.+fu.” Wu Ruo was so shy that he forgot that he hadn't officially respected Numu as his master s.h.i.+fu yet.

“Haha.” Numu laughed out aloud, “since you call me Master s.h.i.+fu, I will accept you as my pupil. I happen to have no students at all. It is time to get one to pa.s.s down my skills.”

He searched his body for a piece of black centipede-shaped jade and gave it to Wu Ruo, “I am personally not a big fan of rituals. So there won't be an official wors.h.i.+p ceremony. This jade is a symbol of me. You can show it to anyone in wizard clan in the south in case you need my help in the future.”

Wu Ruo stared at the jade.

Before he was trying to find an excuse to wors.h.i.+p Numu as his master s.h.i.+fu, surprisingly Numu just accepted him as a pupil so easily.

Numu raised his eyebrow as he didn't accept the jade and said, “you don't want me to be your master s.h.i.+fu?”

“Not like that.” Wu Ruo accepted the jade right away, “thank you, master s.h.i.+fu.”

The centipede-shaped jade was very unique. It had one tiny silver bell on each small foot. With a gentle shake, it made a clear tinkle.

Numu jerked to say to Hei Xuanyi, “all of you, wait outside. I need to talk to my pupil in private.”

Hei Xuanyi went outside unhappily.

Hei Gan approached Hei Xuanyi, picked every bit of the herb off his body, and said, trying not to laugh out, “what did you see in there, lord?”

He knew it was not a right thing to picture how Wu Ruo looked like when he was naked. Still, he couldn't control his mind.

“…”Hei Xuanyi shot a harsh stare at him but his lips curved upward as he thought of what had just happened.

He didn't even have the chance to take a good look at what had just happened in there before he was poured water in the face. He only glanced a big white blurred ball which rolled into the pot quickly.

To be honest, he really didn't understand why Wu Ruo was shy. They were men. Their bodies literally had no difference at all. Besides, they were married.

In the bathroom, after Hei Xuanyi left, Numu asked Wu Ruo some questions about medicine and found that he had a rich medical as well as herbal knowledge and even better than some old doctors. There was no need to teach him from scratch. Numu was so thrilled that he was so lucky to find such a great student. At that moment, he made up his mind to teach Wu Ruo whatever he knew while he was still in Gaoling.

When Wu Ruo finally finished the bath and went to dinner, he found that Hei Xuanyi couldn't keep his eyes off him. He either picked food for him, or stared at him while he was chewing food, or gave a constant look at his big belly.

Wu Ruo felt so uncomfortable being watched like this. As he was about to ask Hei Xuanyi why, Numu laughed, “Ruo, it's interesting how you eat.”

Wu Ruo suggested Numu to call him Ruo when they had been in the bathroom.

“Interesting?” Wu Ruo frowned.

“You are like a child who just learns to eat. You can't reach the table because of your big round belly and you can't hold the chopsticks quite well because of your fat fingers and it is so hard for you to bend your arm because of too much fat there. Since you refuse help, you have to struggle to make it work. Now that you finally have a bite, your face is especially round while you are chewing food, like a two-year-old baby. How am I going to put this?”

Numu finally came up with a word after giving it a thought for a long time, “yes, it's cute. You are so cute that I wish I could squeeze your face.”

Cute?!

Hei Xuanyi stared at Wu Ruo. He tried to find a word to describe Wu Ruo too. Now that Numu said so, Wu Ruo was definitely cute.

He nodded in agreement. It was a great choice of word.

“Master s.h.i.+fu.” Wu Ruo went speechless. It was already hard enough for him to take a bite. They were even laughing at him.

Numu laughed, “I am not making fun of you. You are really cute. Too bad that you are going to lose weight in a few months.”

Hei Xuanyi nodded and felt the same way.

Wu Ruo said angrily, “what are you nodding for? Eat this.”

He deliberately picked up the chicken he had bitten and put it into Hei Xuanyi's bowl.

Hei Xuanyi observed the chicken that had been a mess, raised his eyebrows, and put it into his mouth.

“…” Wu Ruo.

It was hard to believe that he could eat it.

“You are in deep love.” Numu said.

Wu Ruo was shy, “no, we are not.”

“Are you shy?” Numu said smiling, “Ruo, you are so easy to be shy. Look at you, your face is burning hot.”

Wu Ruo denied, “my face is hot because of the light of the candle.”

In fact, he was never a shy person. But for some reason, he became so shy in this life, especially in front of Hei Xuanyi.

“Fine. I get it. Because of the light of the candle.” Numu laughed and said, “man is born with dignity. It is normal to be shy. But if you are too shy in some way, it's easy to lose something important.”

“I am full. You take your time.” he put down his chopsticks, got up and approached Wu Ruo, and whispered to him, “if you like him, go get him. otherwise, you will regret if someone else steels him.”

Wu Ruo rolled his eyes in mind. Couldn't he wait and say this when there was no one else? People with spiritual power had a sharp hearing. It was obvious that Hei Xuanyi was eavesdropping because his ear moved a bit.

Numu left after he said so, leaving Wu Ruo alone to Hei Xuanyi.

He hurriedly finished his meal, “I'm full too. I am off to my room.”

Wu Ruo left the dining room quickly with the help of s.h.i.+yuan.

An idea popped out of Hei Xin's mind. He left the dining room quickly and came back with a book in his hand. He gave it to Hei Xuanyi.

Hei Xuanyi was confused and saw the big words on the cover: Art of s.e.x.
