Tiger tribe XVIII
At the very beginning, when Jiang Yu received the gifts, he still did not know what was going on. He dazedly thought that everyone was just being friendly. Although he had absorbed the original Ah Yu"s memories, the original Ah Yu was still young at that time and didn"t know anything about this sort of thing.
And that things that the current Jiang Yu was supposed to know growing up were pretty much nonexistent ever since he started to spend his days in the forest. Females often come together to chat, comparing their own experiences. What a pity it is that Jiang Yu can"t respect them at all, so he never got along with them and missed a good opportunity to learn some common knowledge.
The first gift Jiang Yu received was a basket of fruit after he had diagnosed and treated a young shapes.h.i.+fter. The young shapes.h.i.+fter had blushed and handed it to him. Jiang Yu did not really like to eat fruit, but his dad liked it very much, so after he was done he took it. He was the doctor"s a.s.sistant, anyways, and it wasn"t really overdoing it to receive a little something in return.
It was only when he saw Mu"s dark face the next day that he realized what was going on. Your mom*, how does sending some fruit amount to a courts.h.i.+p? ! Jiang Yu was both embarra.s.sed and angry. He really didn"t know the meaning of what had happened.
(*I"m not sure which swear word fits this, and I dislike swearing in general, so go ahead and subst.i.tute the french of your choice here :)
"In the future, do not accept fruits anyone else gives you. Whatever you want to eat, I will pick for you," Mu said calmly, his face incredibly scary and his eyes staring straight into Jiang Yu"s.
Jiang Yu didn"t know why he suddenly feels a little fl.u.s.tered and didn"t dare to look at him.
He didn"t know how it happened. The gloomy but somewhat shy little shapes.h.i.+fter has slowly changed as he grew, not only in his appearance but also in personality, to have a powerful aura which was sometimes full of aggressiveness, like now.
Mu"s gaze made Jiang Yu very uncomfortable. His eyes darted everywhere except toward Mu.
Mu didn"t get an answer. He took a step forward and cupped Jiang Yu"s face in his hands, forcing Jiang Yu to look at him.
Jiang Yu"s feelings were fl.u.s.tered. At the moment, Mu"s tall body was enveloping his. He felt as if his territory had been invaded by Mu. Jiang Yu was even more overwhelmed, and his breath was somewhat chaotic.
"What . . . what are you doing?" Jiang Yu blushed and asked, fl.u.s.tered.
"Whatever you want, I"ll get it for you, so don"t accept their gifts, okay?" Mu"s face was very solemn, and there was a hint of pleading in his tone.
Jiang Yu heard that trace of pleading and suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He nodded unconsciously.
Mu saw Jiang Yu"s reaction and immediately his face lit up in pleasant surprise. Nameless unforeseen emotions danced in his eyes, and his gaze toward Jiang Yu was extremely attractive.
Faced with a gaze that seemed to burn through him, Jiang Yu"s face heated up uncontrollably.
"Well, um, the, the doctor is waiting for me, I should go." Jiang Yu did not dare to look at Mu"s eyes, and after dropping such a sentence, he fled.
As he ran, Jiang Yu criticized his behavior. When had he lost so much nerve that he would be scared by Mu?
Since that day, Jiang Yu and Mu"s relations.h.i.+p was really awkward.
Jiang Yu used to talk on and on, but now he could only stutter in front of Mu, and on top of that he often felt his heart skipping a beat. Every time Mu looked at him with that alluring gaze, Jiang Yu whole body would feel off.
After a while, Jiang Yu suddenly realized.
Your mom, he fell in love! And he had miserably* fallen in love with a man!
(*苦逼 -Kǔ bī- originally appeared in Buddhist scriptures, and means "sorrows" or "being left with no choices", according to .)
Jiang Yu suddenly felt that he was very tragic.
Jiang Yu, who had received such a big bolt from the blue*, immediately locked himself in his home, and for three days did not go with Mu to collect herbs in the forest. As a result, he found himself thinking of Mu"s presence all the time. Mu"s figure seemed to appear before him, swaying gently, and his disappointing little heart actually jumped like a drum.
(晴天霹雳 -Qíngtiān pīlì)
Jiang Yu even dreamed of him at night! Your mom, he was even naked. His powerful muscles were handsome and tempting, and Jiang Yu, who was watching him, felt his throat go dry and hoa.r.s.e. The naked Mu only laughed and embraced him. After Jiang Yu woke up, he realized there was something wet between his legs and wanted to cry. He had no choice but to give up all hope and accept that he actually liked another man.
So Jiang Yu decided that he would pursue Mu, though he didn"t know how he would do it.
But before Jiang Yu came up with anything, he was forced to leave the house.
The doctor was choosing a successor.
This time, everyone attended the tribal a.s.sembly, and whether he liked it or not, Jiang Yu had to make an appearance. Besides, he also liked the doctor. Jiang Yu would definitely attend something that involved the doctor.
When he thought that the doctor was going to step down, Jiang Yu suddenly felt a little sad. He had been in this shapes.h.i.+fter world for more than a decade already. At that time, the doctor was still very young, but now he had some wrinkles.
Jiang Yu sat down with Ya Qi this time. He looked for Mu unconsciously. When he saw him, he immediately retreated his gaze, as if something was too hot.
Well, he hasn"t thought about how to pursue Mu. When he"s come up with something, he will talk to him again. He must make a good impression in front of Mu.
Jiang Yu secretly thought that in his heart, but did not realize that Mu had caught Jiang Yu looking at him. In the split second when Jiang Yu looked away, Mu"s gaze became dark, his eyes sad and desperate.
"Ah, I"ve been the tribe doctor for many years, and now it"s time for me to enjoy the good life." The doctor opened the speech like a joke. He paused. "The next generation of our tribe is really outstanding. In these past two years, I have run out of knowledge to impart to them. Their combined abilities are enough to replace me as the doctor."
"Ya An, you"re finally taking over as a tribal healer!" A chimera nudged Ya An"s shoulder. "In the future, you can"t ignore us because you became a doctor, okay?"
Ya An was secretly very delighted, but he pretended to look very indifferent. "How could that happen? Even if I became a medical doctor, we"re still best friends. How could I ignore you?"
Having said this, Ya An"s eyes suddenly became cloudy.
He thought of the three d.a.m.ned people.
He will never forget the humiliation Qi and Ya Qi made him go through in his life! As for Ah Yu, Ya An couldn"t wait to tear him apart! You"re a female, why can"t you just be a good female, why do you have to always go to the doctor"s place to learn medicine? !
He was originally the most popular person in the tribe, pursued by numerous shapes.h.i.+fters. But once the news of Ah Yu treating shapes.h.i.+fter spread, all the shapes.h.i.+fters who pursued him started to pursue Ah Yu instead! This was so humiliating!
However, he is just about to become a doctor, and after this, nothing will be a problem. As long as he becomes the doctor, he will return all his humiliation one by one!
Jiang Yu had also heard Ya An"s conversation. He rolled his eyes and nudged Ya Qi and whispered, "Do you not care who the next doctor is?"
Ya Qi"s eyes were sparkling. "The doctor uncle will announce it in just a bit, but I think it will probably be Ya An. He"s the best student." When he said the last part, Ya Qi"s voice was despondent.
"Have you ever considered that it might be you?" Jiang Yu curled his lip and asked.
"No, no, how could it be!" Ya Qi repeatedly waved his hand and his face flushed red. "I"m so bad that it can"t possibly be me. Please, don"t joke with me anymore."
Jiang Yu originally wanted to continue teasing him, but when he saw that he was about to cry and noticed Qi"s murderous gaze in the distance, Jiang Yu shrugged nonchalantly. "Never mind, let"s just listen to Uncle"s speech."
"Yeah," Ya Qi nodded, his face was still slightly reddish. He looked at the family doctor.
"A lot of my students have made teaching particularly satisfying to me. It makes it very difficult for me to decide who will take over. However, because only one person can take over, I can only be harsh and name one person. I hope that others will continue to help him. Therefore, the next tribal doctor is . . ."
"Ya Qi! Listen! The tribe leader is going to announce it!"
Ya An"s hands were clasped tightly, and the palms of his hands had already appeared with fine beads of sweat. His eyes were full of expectation and ecstasy.
"Ya Qi!"
The tribe leader smiled and pointed at Ya Qi, who was looking distractedly around in the crowd.
Ya An"s face paled and a hint of madness appeared in his eyes. How could this be possible? !
Ya An didn"t pay attention to anything that happened afterward. He walked out of the crowd like a ghost, his brain a blank white.
Why?!
Why is that stupid Ya Qi, who has always been under his feet, going to become the doctor instead of him?!
That position is clearly his!!
Ya An"s eyes were full of crazy emotions. It"s all because that d.a.m.n Ya Qi and Ah Yu grabbed his herbs! If it weren"t for them, the position of the medical doctor and the courts.h.i.+p of all the shapes.h.i.+fters would all be his! b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! They"re all b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!
If they were to die, everything would be mine!
As he was thinking, Ya An suddenly heard a strange voice.
"Charming beauty, what happened? You look so upset, what"s the matter? "
