Chapter 287 - Awakening, The Tofu Near My Lips Disappeared (3)

After the pill formed, the fragrance of the fire lotus pill wafted through the entire alchemy room. Leng Ruoxue opened the alchemy furnace and saw dozens of red pills in the middle. Moreover, each pill was like a ruby dripping with blood, round, plump, and translucent!

Leng Ruoxue collected the pills into a jade bottle and counted them. She didn’t expect there to be more than 80 pills. This really surprised her. But she guessed that it should be due to Little Fire’s blood. Otherwise, it would be impossible to concoct so many pills.

After putting away the pills, Leng Ruoxue left the alchemy room and came to the side of Freak’s bed.

“Freak, you can finally wake up,” Leng Ruoxue murmured softly. She took out a fire lotus pill and placed it on Freak’s lips.

The moment the fire lotus pill touched Freak’s lips, the heat of the pill immediately melted the thin ice covering his lips. Leng Ruoxue took the opportunity to send the pill into his mouth…

After a while, the thin ice on his body began to melt…

After a while, the cold poison in his body was forced out bit by bit…

After a long while, his eyelids twitched slightly, but he still didn’t wake up…

Standing by the bed, Leng Ruoxue stared unblinkingly at Freak on the bed. Her entire heart was in her throat…

Why isn’t he awake yet? Leng Ruoxue waited anxiously. She clearly saw him move just now…

After a long while, Freak finally opened his eyes.

“Xue’er,” Freak called out softly. Boohoo… I’m finally back!

“Freak!” Leng Ruoxue threw herself into his arms excitedly and hugged him tightly. Tears kept flowing out of her eyes like pearls from a broken string…

“Xue’er! Don’t cry.” Freak stretched out his arms and held Xue’er tightly in his arms. It was great. He was finally able to hug Xue’er again. But it did feel good to be in Xue’er’s arms every day when he was a little mink.

After a while, Leng Ruoxue stopped crying and threatened fiercely, “Damn Freak, if you dare to leave me again, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

“Xue’er, when did I leave you? I’ve always been by your side!” But I was a little mink, he added in his mind.

“I don’t care. Anyway, you’re not allowed to leave me again!” Leng Ruoxue roared domineeringly.

“Yes, my dear wife,” Freak said fearfully, like a little wife.

“Wife! I’m so hungry!” Freak said coquettishly.

“Hungry? What do you want to eat?” Leng Ruoxue asked. Uh! He must be hungry after sleeping for so long.

“Can I eat whatever I want?” Freak asked and blinked his watery black eyes, his face full of anticipation.

“Okay. Tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll make it for you,” Leng Ruoxue said very seriously.

“Then… I want to eat tofu[1]!” Freak smiled like a cunning little fox, his bright black eyes blinking rapidly!

“Okay, wait for me!” Leng Ruoxue ran out.

Freak looked at his empty arms and asked in puzzlement, “Uh! Xue’er, where are you going?”

Leng Ruoxue left the purple bamboo house and went straight to their makeshift kitchen.

In the kitchen, Leng Ruoxue stared at the tofu she just took out and calmed her heartbeat.

Damn Freak! He wanted to take advantage of me the moment he woke up. In fact, she understood what Freak meant. It was just that she was a pure and innocent child in both her previous and current lives. Moreover, no man had dared to take advantage of her, but Freak had never let go of any opportunity. However, she would never admit that she was shy just now! Hmph! Want to take advantage of me? I’ll let you have your fill then.

Leng Ruoxue prepared a tofu feast and brought it to Freak.

“Xue’er, what does this mean?” Freak looked at the plates of tofu in front of him and felt cold sweat flowing down his back. Boohoo… is Xue’er messing with me? He didn’t like this tofu at all. In fact, the food he hated the most was tofu, and the only tofu he liked was Xue’er’s…

“These are all tofu! There are all sorts of flavors. You will definitely be satisfied.” Leng Ruoxue smiled charmingly! Hehe, the way Freak behaves when he fails is pretty cute.

“Xue’er, I don’t want to eat this tofu!” Freak said with a bitter face. He might as well make it clear so that Xue’er wouldn’t pretend to be confused.

“What tofu do you want to eat? Tell me, and I’ll make it for you,” Leng Ruoxue said very patiently.

“I want to eat your tofu,” Freak said softly while looking at Leng Ruoxue affectionately.

“Oh, these are my tofu! I made all these.” Leng Ruoxue continued to play dumb, but her heart was racing faster and faster.

Freak took a deep breath, stretched out his long arms, and directly embraced Leng Ruoxue, who was very close to him…

“Xue’er, cooperate with me obediently! I’ll just kiss you once. I promise I won’t touch you randomly,” Freak coaxed as he slowly lowered his head…

“Mommy, is Daddy awake?” A childish voice sounded in their ears just as his lips were less than a centimeter away from Leng Ruoxue’s pink lips.

“Eh? Mommy, what are you doing?” Little Fire looked curiously at the two people hugging each other, his beautiful pink eyes full of puzzlement.

“Ah! Not suitable for children!” Leng Ruoxue hurriedly covered Little Fire’s eyes and jumped out of Freak’s arms.

Damn it. I was tempted by Freak just now. Boohoo… The composure I’m so proud of!

With a face full of anger, Freak looked at Little Fire, who was his savior and a little third wheel. He didn’t know whether to thank him or to give him a good beating. Boohoo… The tofu near my lips disappeared! Xue’er will definitely be more alert in the future. Boohoo…

Leng Ruoxue looked at the depressed-looking Freak and couldn’t help laughing in her heart. In fact, it was not that she didn’t want Freak to kiss her. It was just that… she wasn’t ready yet! Yes, she was just not ready. She was definitely not shy! No way!
