Chapter 116: The gentleman wolf was too shy to even take off her shoes (2)
Marrying the Soft-hearted Villain
At the edge of the Fire Wolf Tribeâs territory, little Mo Yu came home with his rich harvest.
Grandpa Mo was the same as always, partially sitting up on the bed. Since it wasnât nighttime yet, he was still fairly clear-headed.
As for Mo Bohe, she was sewing a pretty fur that Mo Mao had gotten from hunting last year. Seeing that Mo Yu had returned, she put down her work and smiled. âSecond Brother, youâre back?â
âEn.â Mo Yu entered the cave and moved the animal skin curtain back into the place. The little face that he had deliberately kept looking serious along the way back instantly relaxed, revealing a grin that couldnât be hidden. âBig Sister Qiuqiu and I, we⦠We went hunting and found lots of good stuff!â
As he said that, he took out the food and herbs they had gathered today on the stone table.
âHerbs, fish, Big Sister Qiuqiuâs husbandâs treasure water, and a⦠pretty stone?â Mo Bohe blinked. âWow, so much.â
Grandpa Mo saw the spiritual energy stone on the table and he looked at Mo Yu with a rarely seen stern gaze. âDid anyone else see that you two dug this up?â
Mo Yu was taken aback for a moment, then he immediately shook his head. âNo one. Mo Mao and I were the ones that discovered that area, only Big Sister Qiuqiu and the two of us knowâ¦â
Mo Yu trailed off and corrected his words, âYou guys know now too, and I guess Big Sister Qiuqiuâs husband also knows.â
Mo Yu grasped the bone stick. Feeling guilty, he lowered his head. âGrandpa, is this pretty stone very precious? I actually didnât want to take so many things, but Big Sister Qiuqiu said this stone is very good for Older Brotherâ¦â
Hearing this answer, Grandpa Mo sighed. He looked at Mo Yuâs reddened eyes, and then he looked at Mo Mao, who looked as if he was on his last breath and hadnât woken up yet. His heart ached, and he couldnât say harsh words.
He was the only adult in the family. If his body had gotten increasingly weak after his painful parting from his beloved wife, then these children wouldnât have to work so hard.
Grandpa Mo put a hand on the wall for support and slowly stood up. He patted Little Yuâs and Mo Boheâs heads with a trembling hand. âLittle Yu, Bohe, this pretty thing is called a spiritual stone. Itâs a very valuable thing. We absolutely canât let any demons know we have this item at home, understand?â
After seeing the two kids solemnly nod to express they wonât tell anyone, Grandpa Mo eased his furrowed brows. He tottered over to the stone table. After hesitating, he picked up the spiritual energy stone from the table.
The hand with old skin touched the ice-cold sparkling stone, and Grandpa Mo closed his eyes and slowly clenched his hand.
Mo Bohe looked on in surprise as some of Grandpa Moâs hair turned from silver to black. He happily clapped his hands. âGrandpa! Your hair turned black!â
Grandpa Mo heard Little Boheâs voice and touched his head. âReally?â
âYeah, Grandpa has become younger! Grandpa has become handsome!â Little Boheâs sweet words amused Grandpa Mo and Mo Yu, causing them to laugh endlessly.
As Grandpa Mo laughed, his originally hazy and muddy eyes became a bit clearer.
âGrandpa, why did you become younger?â
âItâs probably because this spiritual energy is a real treasure?â Grandpa Mo blinked. He answered in a questioning tone.â
Although his steps were still shaky, it was more stable than before. Grandpa Mo walked over to Mo Mao and stuffed it in his paw.
âSecond Brother, will Big Brother get better now that he has the spiritual energy stone?â Mo Bohe quietly asked Mo Yu on the side.
Mo Yu nodded. âWe also have treasure water and herbs in addition to the spiritual energy stone. Big Brother will definitely get better.â
âMaomao has to get better soon.â Grandpa Mo was sitting on the side of the bed. His old hand stroked his temples. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but before he had time, Mo Mao was slowly opening his beautiful green cat eyes.
The teenagerâs mind was still a bit fuzzy. He saw the familiar silver and black hair and moved his dry lips. â⦠Father?â
Grandpa Mo trembled all over and his pupils suddenly dilated.
