Chapter 69 Shameless Book (4)

"Xin Hua!" Hu'er ran out and stopped in front of Xin Hua. She grins at him.

"Hmm…" Xin Hua nodded at her 

Hu'er pouted and swayed as she asked him, "I'm sorry. Did you wait for too long?"

He shook his head immediately to deny it. "No."

Hu'er giggled, "Let's go then."

Hu'er knew that Xin Hua actually waited for a long time already. Her Grandma's mate told them that he has been waiting outside.

It was also the reason why Hu'er and Old Lady stopped. Hu'er immediately said goodbye and ran out to Xin Hua. She knew that but didn't speak of it anymore.

They both walk together. Instead of Hu'er walking in front, she insisted to walk side by side.

Xin Hua has been looking at the book that she was holding for a while now. Hu'er loves to share what she learned. It has been her habit. However, today is different. She didn't share anything which made Xin Hua feel that there is something different and the book might be connected to it 

When they were already near their home, Xin Hua couldn't wait anymore and asked, "Hu'er what are you holding?"

Hu'er suddenly froze for a while. She even wanted to hide it. But a mischievous thought came to her. "Ah? This?" She let him see the plain brown cover of the book.

"Hmm…" he nodded.

Hu'er glanced left and right to see no one in the vicinity. Her eyes flash a glint. "Oh…" Hu'er smile lazily. She slowly walked toward him, closer and closer.

Stopping in front of him she beckons him, "Come here, I'll tell you…."

Xin Hua who was about to step back couldn't help but be hypnotized, "Okay…" He went closer.

Hu'er's attention caught Xin Hua's ears that moved. Xin Hua's height is the same as hers, but his ears are of course on top of his head. She pursed her lips and then grinned.

Hu'er went much closer and immediately stand on her tiptoes. Putting her hands on his strong muscled shoulder to lift herself. She whispered in his ears, "Why do you want to know? Hmmm?"

Her gaze went straight to his furry ears, pursed her lips she couldn't help but bit it lightly and then run away while giggling.

"Hu'er!" Xin Hua covered his ears. His whole body almost turned all red.

Hu'er ran as if she didn't hear him. But stopped when she couldn't hear her footsteps. Xin Hua is just frozen there.

"What are you standing there? Dada might be waiting. Come on!" Hu'er just stood there and signaled him to come to her.

He sighed, caressing his ears where she bit him. He walks toward Hu'er who is waiting for her. Once he was beside her, they both start walking.

"Don't do that again." Although Xin Hua said it in determination, his eyes look helpless with adoration towards Hu'er.

"I definitely won't. Look, do I have fur on my mouth?" She stopped and pointed at her mouth.

"You…" sighed. He looks at her mouth to see two fur hair. His lips twitched as he took it away.

"What's that look? I won't do it again okay? But I didn't regret it~" She giggled and hummed all the way to her home.

"Dada! I'm home~," she yelled as they walk inside.

Jiu Hu glanced at them and focused on patching the wounds of the beastman in front of him. "Have you eaten?"

She nodded only to remember Jiu Hu isn't looking at her. "Yup! Grandmom gave me some meat soup."

Jiu Hu finished his work and looks at Hu'er. "That's great. Are you full?"

"No. I still want to eat." Hu'er went towards Jiu Hu and hooked her arm to hug his arm.

He pats her head. "Alright. I'll tell Jiu Lin to cook. Go up now."

"Okay." Putting her arms away, she waves at Xin Hua, "Bye, Xin Hua! Thank you!" Hu'er skipped upstairs happily.

"Thank you for fetching her," Jiu Hu nodded at Xin Hua.

"It's my responsibility." Xin Hua nodded to him too.

Eyebrow raised, "Oh? Go back." Jiu Hu shooed him away.

Xin Hua smiled and went away. Ke Rin who is coming home greeted Xin Hua, Xin Hua nods at him.

"Hu'er's back?" He inquired.

"Hmm… Go, boil some water. She will be taking a bath. Tell Jiu Lin to cook too." Jiu Hu muttered.

"Sure. Here are the herbs I gathered. It should be enough." Xin Hua gave it to Jiu Hu. Jiu Hu took it and started preparing some herbal cream.

Ke Rin went out again to boil some water for Hu'er's bath before going to the storehouse to call Jiu Lin.

Jiu Lin was still looking for some things in the store room when Ke Rin told him to cook, "What does she want to eat?"

"Dad didn't say anything." Ke Rin just watched Jiu Lin go through thing after thing then stopped when he heard him say Hu'er's name.

"She might have eaten earlier then… I'll just prepare some fruit squeezed juice and diced meat," Jiu Lin muttered as he took the tools that could help him build a house.

"Okay." Both Ke Rin and Jiu Lin left the storehouse.

While Jiu Lin went somewhere to put the tools and get the ingredients, Ke Rin went back to the water he was boiling.

Once it was done, he brought the water up.

"Hu'er," he knocked on her door.

Hu'er slowly opened her door and looks at him, then at what he held. "Ke Rin! Just in time, I want to take a bath."

"Yes, got it prepared." Hu'er opened the door wide to let Ke Rin go in.

As Ke Rin prepares Hu'er's bath she asks, "Dada told you didn't he?"

"Hmm…" Ke Rin admits.

Hu'er giggles, "Dada knows me the best. Thank you Ke Rin~"

"It's my pleasure. Here, the bath is ready. I'll be outside and guard your door." 

"Okay!" He smiled and went out. Closed the door and just stood there to guard her.

Ke Rin has a grim face. He rarely guards Hu'er's door when she is bathing. He never likes hearing her taking off clothes and the sound of water. He just couldn't…

If anyone goes up, they would see how stiff Ke Rin's body is and how he is blushing so much.
