Chapter 12: Take Off
Chapter 12: Take Off
The scene was surreal to the onlookers. Theyd just witnessed what looked like a fight to the death between the two, and now within the space of minutes, they were chatting very politely with each other. The politely part was what really amazed everyone.
Sword skills? Master already taught her those. Dont wanna go. She shook her head. She had Master and Master had already taught her lots.
Well whatever, your loss, the teenage boy muttered to himself.
Feng Wu didnt understand why he would say this.
Xiao Wu, dont bother with this guy. He just wants to pick a fight. Tian Ke couldnt stand it anymore. He couldnt keep watching as this villain tried to deceive Feng Wu.
Feng Wu blinked. I dont understand. Since the other party didnt attack with murderous intentions Feng Wu didnt feel a need to be hostile.
Never mind, its too late now. Tian Ke rolled his eyes upward. This girl was just too dense and honest at times.
An employee came in and told everyone to get ready for take-off, to brace themselves so they wouldnt fall over. Everyone returned to their places and Feng Wu held onto Little Bun. There were no seat restraints, so without proper care and balance, it was easy for people to fall and injure themselves. The red-haired teenager didnt bother since he was a martial artist. He went to a corner and stood to the side out of the way, staring at the Little Bun in Feng Wus arms.
Little Bun looked adorable with his peachy skin, puffy cheeks, and red glistening lips. He was nestled in Feng Wus arms with small dribbles of spit bubbles coming out the side of his mouth.
People started to move about after the descent was complete and the ride smoothened. Jier went over and poked at the little guy teasingly. Your brother? Back at home he was the youngest child so this was his first time seeing someone so small.
He is my son. Feng Wu answered.
Yours?! Jier exclaimed in shock staring at the drooling baby in her arms. You mean to say you gave birth to him?
Yes. Feng Wu nodded.
Tian Ke nodded in commiseration. He too was shocked that day in the well when she told him.
The other passengers nearby overhead the conversation and remembered they were discussing this earlier before the red-head interrupted them with his entrance. They tilted their heads and paid attention to the conversation.
So youre married?! What were her parents thinking forcing her to marry and have a child at her age? Jier complained against Feng Wus parents in his heart, thinking that they were very irresponsible parents.
No. Feng Wu shook her head.
No? Jier wanted to ask for clarification, but upon noticing how the people around them were quiet and seemed to be listening in, he decided to stop instead. This was a personal matter after all. Whether or not she was abandoned as a result of misfortune was not something he should ask in public. It was most inappropriate of him to probe about her private matters with so many ears around.
He asked, Are you hungry? Want some chicken? and pulled a big roasted chicken leg out from thin air. His smile was so dazzling it temporarily made Feng Wu dumb.
When she came to she sniffed and sniffed. The chicken smelled delicious! Thank you! After saying that she promptly took the chicken and took a huge bite out of it.
Tian Ke was drooling. It looked delicious and he did want some as well, but he refused ask for some. He still remembered how this villain had attacked Feng Wu.
Want some? Jier held out another piece to Tian Ke.
Tian Ke looked and looked some more. He swallowed a big mouthful of saliva. Fine! Forget it. Whatever. He would forgive the jerk this one time! But if that guy dared mess with Xiao Wu again he would beat the crap out of him. Tian Ke had quickly forgotten the gap in strength between them. He reached over and grabbed the chicken greedily.
Wah! Wah! Little Bun was hungry and wanted to be fed too!
Hm? Hungry? Feng Wu held the chicken leg in one hand and Little Bun in the other.
Ah! Ah! The little guy waved his chubby hands around.
Feng Wu knew this little guy really liked to eat. She looked at her hand and the chicken thigh that was in it, then she looked at Tian Kes hand and the chicken thigh that was there. It only took a second for her to decide. She turned resolutely to Jier, placed Little Bun in his arms and said, Feed my baby.
What? Jier reflexively gripped the baby tightly afraid hed drop him, then fearing hed squish the baby he loosened his grip, then afraid of dropping him he tightened his grip, then loosened then tightened. Finally at wits end he asked, Youre OK with giving your baby to a stranger!? This girl, her sense of vigilance is way too low! Howd the little guy manage to stay alive till now?
How are you considered a stranger? The teenager in front of her gave her a warm feeling, like a tiny shining sun. It made her feel very nice.
Feng Wu lived a very simple childhood on Yuehua Mountain. It was basically her, Master, and a bunch of animal companions. There were no other people around, never mind other children her own age. She never felt lonely though, having Master was enough. However, this lack of human interaction meant she didnt know how to interact and make friends with other people. She could only use her feelings as a compass to move forward.
Although she didnt understand the finer points of human interactions she did interact a lot with the animals on the mountain. Because of this she was very sensitive and was able to intuitively know when someone meant her harm. When he threw the fireball at her earlier, although it was fierce, there was no killing intent behind it. It was similar to what the animals on the mountain did. They would attack one another in play, testing each others strength.
