Naruto curiously looked at the middle-aged lady before smiling and said: "Elder sister must be Ruoxi guardian, Lady Wang Yu Lan, pleased to meet you."
The middle-aged lady smiled and said, "young master are too polite, you can call me Wang Ma just like young miss use to. Also I watch young miss grown up from a child into a young lady, it would be more appropirate to call me Auntie."
Naruto nodded, "I would call you Auntie Wang then, just to differ it from Ruoxi," Wang Ma took Naruto into the living rooms and sat on the comfortable sofa in the center of the room.
Naruto scanned the house, this villa had three floors, fully equipped with modern electronics. Inside it contains a set of real white leather sofas, black marble floor, mahogany furniture, some big and small paintings by famous artists, and a few blossoming orchids swaying on the window side. All of these gave off a simple yet elegant appearance.
Naruto gave an approval expression and praised Wang Ma, "Auntie Wang this place was really comfortable for living, you must have been take care of it really well."
feeling praised, Wang Ma's mood became more cheerful, she replied: "it wasn't much young master." Her expression somehow became sorrowfull, she let out a sigh, "the only one that had been living here only me and young miss, so it wasn't that hard to take care the house. Besides, young miss always busy and rarely at home, there's nothing much to do except doing housework."
Seeing Wang Ma didn't ask anything about marriage, Naruto wrinkled his eyebrows, after glanced for a while, ha finally dared to ask, " Auntie Wang, didn't you feel curious why Ruoxi suddenly married?"
"Hehe," Wang Ma laughed in temperate manner, she said, "young master, I've seen young miss grow up ever since she was small. young miss never had a single boyfriend, though those who tried to woo her aren't few. However, young miss never looked at any of them, yet she married you. This must mean that you, young master, are special. young miss is very intelligent, and I trust young miss judgement, so there is nothing to worry about."
Naruto expression delayed, he let out chuckle soon and nodded in understanding. After chatting several time more, lunch time finally arrived, looking at the luxurious foods being served in the table caused Naruto saliva to drip and launched full assault toward them. Naruto ate happly while praising Wang Ma cooking skill, he thought later on requesting Wang Ma to make ramen, the taste definitely like heaven.
After cleaning up, Wang Ma took off her apron and brought Naruto to his own room. Upon arrived, Naruto felt suprised as the room was humongous, to the point where it's bigger than the entire apartment that he was renting. Ceiling windows with white curtains swaying at the side, a flat king sized bed, a 42-inch Sony LED TV, an Apple computer at the bedside complemented by a classical decorated side lamp, and a shining parquet floor. Looking towards the wall, there were two huge built-in cabinets, filled with brand new clothes, neckties and leather shoes.
Naruto whistled, his eyes filled with amazement, "really perfect."
Wang Ma happly replied: "this is all young miss effort, she spend a lot of time to decorate the room afraid that young master would feel uncomfortable."
Naruto nodded with a grin, "oh, I'll praise Ruoxi later."
Wang ma finally left Naruto alone in his new room to letting him rest, Naruto looked around the room, before heading to the king-sized bed and laid on top of it. He stared at the ceiling while mumbling, "I can't believe that I'm married now."
Naruto stood up and walked toward the window, looking up at the sky and moving clouds, Naruto smiled faintly, "do you happy now Ero-sennin ? Your dense and blockhead student finally married to a very beautiful woman. But she's really workaholic just like me once. Heh, looking at her is like looking at my own figure in the mirror."
Naruto kept talking to himself retelling event from these few days like his late mentor was actually stand infront of him.
"Well that's all I wanted to say, take care your self. Do make sure not to peek on kami-sama bathing, I don't want to see you get launch from one heaven to another one."
Naruto walked into the center of the room, before reached out something from inside his clothes, Naruto bring out the white color scroll out of his cloth and lay it down on the floor. the scroll has unique marking and several strange word on them, Naruto bit his finger then press his blood on one of the marking.
*Poof*
A white smoke appeared on the room, slowly dissipated to reveal what it's covered. A wooden chest appeared in the room, and Naruto opened it to see all of his clothes inside the chest. Naruto nodded in satisfaction before took all of them and put it inside the wardrobe. Although Lin Ruoxi had bought a lot of brandy and expensive clothes, but Naruto was still comfortable with his old one, so he just going to keep wearing them.
Since there's nothing to do, Naruto who bored, walking out of his room to look for chatting with Wang Ma. Through her, Naruto understand Lin Ruoxi's family situation more. Lin Ruoxi was a single child in Lin family, due to didn't have any male descendant, the inheritant of familiy suppossed to be fall into Lin Ruoxi's father, Lin Kun. Turned out because unknown reason, it fell into Lin Ruoxi instead, thus cause dthe relationship between the father and daughter become more strain then it already was. Lin Kun had known as a playboy and lived in debauchery for a long time. What was weird to mention was Lin Kun somehow hated Lin Ruoxi and her mother including her grandmother. It was proven at Lin Ruoxi's grandmother burial ceremony, Lin Kun didn't even show up.
After hearing Lin Ruoxi's family circumstance, Naruto couldn't help but feeling pity and admire for the girl. For such a young age to be able hold into such a burden. Naruto started to feel that this marriage was actually a good idea. They talked until afternoon when Wang Ma reminded Naruto to take a bath since Lin Ruoxi probably coming home around this time. Accepting Wang Ma good advice, Naruto walked toward his room to test his new profound bathroom.
"I'm home," said with a soft tone, Lin Ruoxi slowly walked inside her house. Wang Ma quickly greeted her in the hallway, said with gentle smile, "young miss welcome, have you eaten already? do you need me to prepare anything?"
Lin Ruoxi looked at her guardian, with a tired smile she answer, "thanks Wang Ma but I already ate at the office, just prepare me some tea. I wanted to watch tv."
then Lin Ruoxi remembered her blondie husband, said to Wang Ma, "did Naruto arrived here?". Wang Ma excitedly nodded and replied: "Yes young miss. Young master already arrive since morning and now he's taken a bath. Young miss indeed had a great eyes, young master is really handsome, smart, and polite man. No wonder young miss decide to marry him quickly, such a man will attract a lot of girl."
Hearing Wang Ma praised Naruto, didn't know why Lin Ruoxi felt a little proud, but then remembered they not really married perse, making her regretted a little but decided to just ignore it.
"Then Wang Ma, the tea."
"rRght away, young lady just sit comfortably in the living room while I do so."
With a swift motion, Wang Ma headed to the kitchen while Lin Ruoxi sat on the sofa, she grabbed the remote then turned on the flat screen LCD.
She quickly changed the channel into her favorite new Korean drama, and watching intently. Unknown to her, a certain person with astonished expression watching her from behind. When a certain sad scene being played, Lin Ruoxi started to sob and searching for a tissue without moving her eyes from the drama. She unable to find it yet her eyes still didn't want to move from the scenes until...
"Here you go."
"Ah, thank you."
she wiped the tears with the tissue and continued watching. After a while, she started to notice something seems wrong, she turn her head to her right only to see a certain blondie smiling at her with mocking expression on his face.
Silent.
As if the time freeze at the moment, both parties didn't talk and only stared each other.
10 second...
15 second...
30 second...
45...
60...
one minute of silence before a certain beauty start talking stutterly
"This-this..."
"Hehe sooo our Ruoxi turn out likes watching drama korean, eh?"
"No-no... I-I..."
"She is so serious watching it until her eyes couldn't even move from it."
"But...but..."
"She tried to found a tissue but because her eyes couldn't move basically she just search it with her hand..."
"A-ah..."
"She won't even recognize the person who give her tissue until later on.."
As if couldn't hold it anymore, Lin Ruoxi stood up, she took a deep breath and shouted, "I LIKE KOREAN DRAMA! SO WHAT OF IT?!"
like a bomb that finally exploded, her voice resounded loudly in the house. Her face was red from the shouting and her chest fluctuating, caused two peak in front tremble along side it,
Yet the man who she shouted at instead look shock, terrified, or scared. he was...
"BWAHAHAHHAAH"
he just laughed of loud even grabbed his stomach as if he just hear the most funniest joke in the world.
"You... you..." Lin Ruoxi unable to speak as her anger was reaching the peak, her whole body was red as if in any moment she could explode.
Yet Naruto kept laughing without care, if he had a laughing box, it would have been broken already. Lin Ruoxi couldn't bear hearing it again, she closed their distance and shutted Naruto's mouth with her slender and soft hand, while she said repeatedly," You not allowed to laugh anymore! You not allowed to laugh anymore!"
"Mmpphmmm," of course, after his mouth being held like this, Naruto couldn't even let out a pep of sound. Looked at the victory sign started approaching her, Lin Ruoxi felt a little relief, her lips curled in mocking manner, "hmph, let's see if you can still laughing like before."
But not long after saying that, she felt something wet touch her palm, suprised by this she quickly took back her hand and looked at her palm. There was a wet trace on her jade look palm and it still felt warm. Her body shook after realize what just happen, 'I... I... unexpectedly being licked by him.'
After long recover from her shock, she looked at Naruto before...
*PA!*
With all power she could muster, she slapped Naruto right on his face as bright red palm stick on him, "euh, how could you licked me like that!" as if vented her anger Lin Ruoxi kept slapping Naruto in everywhere on his body. Of course her power couldn't even match Naruto so for him this is like a massage. He still kept smiling and let Ruoxi did whatever she want until she satisfied.
Feeling tired after hitting again and again, she finally stopped. She looked at him who still held smiling face couldn't help but feel annoyed, "what's with your disgusting smile?"
"Because our Ruoxi is really cute," hearing him said that with a sincere tone. Lin Ruoxi trembled as she astonishly stared at him. without wait for her reaction, Naruto pulled Lin Ruoxi into his lap, letting her sit on him like this. There's no more word to be said, for Lin Ruoxi to be held like this by him, it was enough for her. She closed her eyes enjoying his warm present.
On the other side of the room, Wang Ma was watching Naruto held Lin Ruoxi gently, tears falling from her eyes feeling grateful for whoever sent Naruto into young miss life. Long time passed, Finally the comfortable silent broke by one single bell sound, the bell of trouble.
*Ding dong*
