Chapter 379 - Master Handsome Is Back (4) (1/2)
She was thinking about how vulnerable her teacher was at that moment and assumed he was more than just a little tired so she hurried him home for a bath and to get some rest.
Before entering the home, Yu Gangan first asked her teacher to wait outside. She deliberately went inside to prepare a small fire in a metal bowl1 and placed it at the door to let him step over it.
She also chanted the words, “Attract good luck, avoid evil, and turn misfortune into a blessing. From now on, stay safe, and may things go your way.”
He Shigui smiled a little and stepped over the fire to enter the home.
The foreign home made him naturally curious, “Whose home is this?”
“A friend of mine’s. Her name is Lin Jiayu. She was my patient before, but we are now good friends. She is very nice. Because she got married recently, the apartment was left empty so she let me live in it. Oh, by the way, Master Handsome, I’ve been staying in Beijing for some time…I’ll explain everything to you later. Welcome back!!” Yu Gangan announced.
She was so happy, her voice grew louder and louder until she almost shouted.
He Shigui looked at her radiant and charming face and smiled. He then pulled her into his embrace and said gently, “Countless times, I thought I wouldn’t be able to survive. But then I thought about how my brat would survive without me: who would cook for her, who would help her organize her notes, and who would help her prepare herbs…”
Tears finally fell uncontrollably.
Yu Gangan didn’t want to cry, but these were tears of joy, “It’s so good that you’re back, Master Handsome. But…you’re body is a little smelly.”
He Shigui let her go and sighed, “I’m not even old yet, and you’re already disgusted by me. I don’t think I can count on you when I’m old.”
Yu Gangan burst into laughter, “Master Handsome, don’t worry, I will definitely take care of you. I will be more filial than any daughter can be.”
He Shigui smiled a little and did not say another word.
