TIGER WU'S

NOT SURPRISED

Rubby's gaze stopped on the floor on the lower left side of where he currently is. His heart was relieved when it saw Wu Jin Ming sitting in a position behind him to treat someone. Rubby felt familiar with the clothes the man was wearing in front of her husband.

'It was like I knew that guy. But who? Ah, maybe my brain is loading a little bit of times, yeah. By the way how long I slept. Or maybe I just fainted. Ah, I don't know!' Rubby shook his head and twisted his body to stretch his muscles that felt stiff.

"Ohhh.. sshhh!" Rubby shrieked softly while hissing.

His chest felt a little pain when he squirmed earlier. Rubby felt his chest with his hand where the source of his pain was. There was nothing strange on the outside but there was a different taste on the inside.

'Maybe it was just my feelings. Long sleep makes me like a fool.' Rubby shook his head slowly.

He couldn't wait to see who the person who was with Wu Jin Ming was but if he were to go down now surely their concentration would be disturbed. It can be fatal if the flow of energy falters in the middle of treatment. It is not a cure but will actually worsen the state of the energy receiver.

The nine goddesses did not realize that Rubby was now conscious.

After waiting for a while, Jin Ming finally finished channeling energy to Queen Ivo.

Rubby jumped down because he couldn't wait. He walked with a little tiptoe so as not to make a sound. Wu Jin Ming and Queen Ivo had yet to realize that Rubby was walking towards them and watching over them since earlier.

A prank idea pops into Rubby's head. He laughed without a sound. With a quick movement Rubby wanted to close Wu Jin Ming's eyes from behind.

"Aarghhhh!" peek Wu Jin Ming reflexively held onto Rubby's hand before he managed to hold her.

Wu Jin Ming scanned the hand and his eyes widened when he saw the ring coiling on one of his fingers.

Queen Ivo was no less surprised when she looked back.

"Rubby!" wu Jin Ming. A wide smile spread across his face.

Queen Ivo's eyes glazed over. Her lips are like a mute. No sound came out from there even though he was anxious to say.

"Isha! You guys are not exciting! What kind of reaction is this. You should have been surprised. Well, fail to give you a surprise." Rubby nagging unclear.

"Rubby!" queen Ivo squealed from her seat to hug her daughter.

For a moment they both dissolve in the heat. The feelings of both are mixed. Rubby hasn't fully recalled the previous events he's been through. Right now Rubby is trying to piece together pieces of memory and reassemble them.

"Thank God you're sober, baby. Look at your husband, he looks so messy without you" Queen Ivo said after letting go of her arms.

"Sister Wu!" rubby shouted jumping into Wu Jin Ming's arms.

Wu Jin Ming was speechless. She just returned Rubby's embrace and showered him with a kiss.

"Are you not sleeping? And not eat either? Oh, geez! It's a mess of your face." Rubby cupped his palm on Wu Jin Ming's face.

"Where can I not if you have nothing to look after and where may I be hungry if you also do not eat. I won't die just from not eating and not sleeping for a few days."

Wu Jin Ming's speech made Rubby's eyes perfectly round.

"What's? Some days? What the hell happened to me?" Rubby flocked Wu Jin Ming with many questions.

"Later I'll tell you. Now let's go back to our palace," Wu Jin Ming said softly.

"No." Rubby dropped himself on the floor and straightened his legs. Sulks.

Queen Ivo shook her head feeling that her daughter was still very childish.

"Train to be patient Rubby. Aren't you ashamed of the golden egg?" Wu Jin Ming looked at Rubby in a moment.

"Golden eggs?" Rubby's face looks excited.

Rubby immediately got up from his seat and ran to the white lotus flower that holds his baby.

"What's that about my granddaughter, son-in-law?" asked Queen Ivo who was walking by Wu Jin Ming's side to catch up with Rubby.

"Yes, Mother. Our son was stored inside the golden egg that was wrapped in the lotus flower" Wu Jin Ming explained.

"Hm."

Rubby spoke a lot in front of the giant lotus flower as if he was talking to someone. Rubby's funny babble made Wu Jin Ming and Queen Ivo laugh. That's because Rubby talks a lot of things that sound ludicrous.

After feeling satisfied, Rubby took her husband and mother to the palace of Wu Jin Ming who was there.

After Rubby was fine, Queen Ivo just saw the beauty of the sky palace and the palaces of the Gods that lined up neatly there.

Before, his eyes were closed with sadness.

Queen Ivo was even more astonished when she saw Wu Jin Ming's palace. The palace of his ancestral relics that was passed down for him. The magnificent building, typical with a typical architectural model of the Gods.

"For a while stay in the sky. It's very dangerous for Rubby if he meets a power hunter. The situation is stable but at least wait a week if you want to do strenuous activities."

"Why, really, Mom? Usually even after getting hurt I can still fight again." Rubby asked with his innocent face.

Queen Ivo looked at Wu Jin Ming as if asking him to explain to Rubby.

Wu Jin Ming nodded.

"Rubby, after you fought against the witch Wang Yu, you were severely injured. I'm late to save you."

A look of regret on Wu Jin Ming's face.

"I don't blame you, baby. When I get hurt you are also helpless. That ugly witch locked you in a block of ice."

"So I'm not supposed to take care of you."

"Congratulations, Cayang. If you look like this you look cute." Rubby tried to make Wu Jin Ming laugh.

"Hey, I'm not a child. Does implanting a replacement heart in your body cause your brain a little trouble?"

Wu Jin Ming walked around Rubby's body.

"Gosh, Honey. I'm not concussion. Uh, what did you say? Replacement heart?" Rubby spontaneously held his chest.

"Yes. The Queen Mother apparently kept the Rubby Aurora gemstone. If it's not possible I'll have to travel around the whole universe to find it."

"Ah, so I now have no heart. If I suddenly die. Haaa .. haaaa ...." Rubby sat on the floor and rubbed his legs.

Wu Jin Ming patted his eel. Confused how to explain to Rubby. He chose to catch up with Rubby sitting on the floor and trying to think.

"You're not going to die, honey. It is precisely the surrogate heart that saves you from death."

Rubby stopped his crying and looked at Wu Jin Ming and Queen Ivo in turn.
