Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 7

They were close enough for Jun Wu Yao to hear the breaths that came with the heaving of her chest.
After being frozen for a awhile, Jun Wu Yao tightened his arms and pulled Jun Wu Xie closer tighty. The smile on his face grew wider, and he rested his chin on Jun Wu Xie’s hair, muttering soft whispers, just like one coaxing a young child.
“Were you bullied? No need to worry, your big brother is here now. With your big brother around, no one will be able to bully you in the slightest.”
One arm clasped Jun Wu Xie around the waist, holding her near, and his other hand was gently stroking Jun Wu Xie’s smooth tresses. That deep and gentle voice soothed and coaxed, and anyone would be intoxicated just from hearing the voice alone.
Jun Wu Xie’s head that was resting on Jun Wu Yao’s chest shook in denial, but she still did not say a word.
She had not suffered injustice and no one had bullied her. She only missed home…..
She missed home, but she could not return.
Jun Wu Yao did not know what else to do but only hugged her tight. He did not know why his little darling was being needy this time, but he greatly enjoyed the feeling.
He would not mind her being more reliant on him.
The picturesque scene of the two figures locked in an embrace under the scatter of sun rays that shone down through the canopy of leaves remained for a long while, as though they were the only two people there.
All the other people throughout the set up camp were holding their breaths, subconsciously afraid to desecrate and despoil the scene of serenity and harmony.
Qiao Chu’s eyes opened unbelievably wide as he stared at Jun Wu Yao who was holding Jun Wu Xie in a deep embrace, his eyes showing utter disbelief.
His trembling finger was pointed at the two figures as his completely shocked expression turned to look at Hua Yao, who was looking a little inquisitive besides surprise.
[Damn it! Who is that! ? He dares to hug Little Xie like that! Is he tired of living! ?]
[Why is Little Xie meekly allowing herself to be held like this? I want that too! But I don’t dare to even try it! ARRRRGH!]
Hua Yao did not reply, still not fully recovered from the shock, as the scene before their eyes was rather difficult for them to digest.
Only Rong Ruo’s expression was a little strange.
Jun Wu Xie lay in Jun Wu Yao’s embrace, indulging in the familiar presence that comforted all her unease and misgivings hidden under her cold and distant facade.
She might be able to complete her journey on her own, but she had come to very much cherish the family affections that she had gained after so much hardship.
Slightly releasing his arms, he pulled himself from the small figure clasping herself tightly upon his chest, creating a short distance between them. The slight lack of oxygen had made Jun Wu Xie’s little face flush red. It made Jun Wu Xie look a little bashful and seeing that made Jun Wu Yao’s heart feel like a cat’s claws had just swiped over his heart, wrenching with longing.
“Be honest, were you missing me?” Jun Wu Yao said in deliberate low voice, his arms hung around Jun Wu Xie’s hips, not allowing her to pull the distance further.
Jun Wu Xie’s nose was slightly tinged red, and she raised a finger to her nose and nodded almost imperceptibly.
She missed home.
Jun Wu Yao felt as if he had been fed a mouthful of honey, and his heart warmed. He immediately pulled Jun Wu Xie back into his warm embrace.
However…..
Hidden in the shadows all this while, Ye Sha observed all of this in silence. On his perfectly stoic and serious face, no one would have any idea what he was thinking. But he suddenly said to himself involuntarily: “When will my Lord learn, can’t he see that the Young Miss’ reaction is because she misses home? It is nothing like what my Lord is thinking! My Lord! Wake up please!”
The moment he finished his sentence, Ye Sha stiffened up. He hurriedly clasped his hands over his mouth, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

Chapter 615: “Finally Missing Me? (3)”
[What was he saying? Why did that feel so natural to say?]
Ye Sha was shocked by his own strange actions and he held his hand clasped over his mouth and went behind a tree to reflect and repent.
“Cough, Young Master Wu Yao.” After Long Qi watched the two having chatted for a long while, he could not help but step up to approach.
It was rather strange, Young Master Wu Yao was a member of the Jun Family as well, but Long Qi did not know why the Young Master was so easily forgotten. If Long Qi did not see Jun Wu Yao’s person, he did not seem to remember such a person, but when Jun Wu Yao is standing before him, it just felt everything was as it should be.
Thinking back on this, Duke Lin and His Highness had not mentioned anything about Young Master Wu Yao.
Jun Wu Yao was in a rather good mood and did not show a single ounce of displeasure even after being rudely interrupted by Long Qi and his tall slender frame easily lifted Jun Wu Xie into the crook of his arm.
“Hmm?” Jun Wu Yao raised an eyebrow.
“Would Young Master Wu Yao be returning with us to the Lin Palace?” Long Qi inquired solemnly.
“No.” Jun Wu Yao sneered. His darling will not be there, why would he want to go back to the Lin Palace?
Long Qi retreated to the side respectfully and did not say another word. He was well battle hardened, but without knowing why, when before Jun Wu Yao, Long Qi’s heart was always tinged with a sense of fear and respect for Jun Wu Yao, a completely different kind of respect he held for the other members of the Jun Family.
Jun Wu Xie allowed herself to be held in Jun Wu Yao’s arms and did not show any signs of wanting to break free. Although she was not able to see her Uncle and Grandfather, being able to see Jun Wu Yao here was still a good thing.
With Long Qi having taken the first lead, Qiao Chu and gang were finally able to bolster enough courage to go up.
“Lit….. Little Xie….. This is…..?” Qiao Chu asked in a trembling voice. Qiao Chu was befuddled as to the reason, but the man before him greatly terrified him. The man’s face was all smiles, but he could not help feeling as if he was being eyed by an immensely powerful and terrifying beast, and he could be torn to shreds anytime.
“Jun Wu Yao, my elder brother.” Jun Wu Xie gave him a straightforward answer.
“Your….. your elder brother? !” Qiao Chu’s mind whirled, but if they were siblings, that would explain why Jun Wu Xie was willing to allow Jun Wu Yao to get so close to her.
But…..
Although both of them possessed astoundingly and flawlessly beautiful looks, their features were not in the least bit similar!
[Little Xie, are you sure this is your real brother?]
Those words, Qiao Chu did not possess the guts to utter them out loud.
“My humble name is Hua Yao.”
“Fei Yan.”
“Qiao Chu.”
“Rong Ruo.”
After knowing Jun Wu Yao’s identity, Qiao Chu and his gang became less wary.
Only Rong Ruo’s expression still remained a little complicated.
Yan Bu Gui had told her before, that Jun Wu Yao was not someone they could afford to offend, but had not been willing to tell her anything about his identity. Although Rong Ruo had only met Jun Wu Yao once before this, but she held absolutely no doubts about the terrible and unbelievable power the man possessed.
Despite the fact that Jun Wu Yao had not shown his power before them, but the strong oppressive aura emanating from the man far surpassed anyone Rong Ruo had ever met. Subconsciously, she knew Jun Wu Yao held much more power than Yan Bu Gui himself.
But why would such a man who possessed such Heaven defying strength appear in the Lower Realm? And how did he become Jun Wu Xie’s brother?
Endless questions quickly filled Rong Ruo’s mind, but she did not speak a word about it, and did not even share her doubts with Qiao Chu and the others.
>
As Yan Bu Gui had clearly left his instructions to her, she was not about to violate them.
Jun Wu Yao’s eyes swept over Qiao Chu and the others, and he tilted his head slightly. He beamed as he looked at Jun Wu Xie, the smile on his face more intoxicating than any other beautiful scenery.
“Seems like in the period that I was not around, my Little Xie had been living a fulfilling life.”
Among the four companions, there was only one girl.
Volume 7
Chapter 616: “Finally Missing Me? (4)”
His little darling had really not been idle during this period.
Being under Jun Wu Yao’s gaze, Hua Yao and the others could feel an unseen pressure envelope their bodies, an oppressive aura that almost suffocated them, which immediately made their backs wet with sweat!
This man, was extremely dangerous!
The jet black eyes brewed with murder and a dark violet shade gradually appeared over the pure black eyes.
‘Smack’
A tiny snowy white hand suddenly covered Jun Wu Yao’s eyes.
“Eyes.” Jun Wu Xie’s voice was extremely soft.
Jun Wu Yao froze, and suddenly broke out in a laugh. He raised his hand and gently removed the tiny hand covering his eyes. The dangerous glint had disappeared from those eyes of his as he turned to Qiao Chu and the others to say: “I’m grateful to all of you for taking care of Little Xie all this time.”
The oppressive pressure on their bodies immediately disappeared without a trace.
Qiao Chu and the others gasped heavily for air. Just a moment ago, they had all thought they would be killed!
In the brief moment they had realized their lives had been hanging by a thread, they came to realize that this brother of Jun Wu Xie’s, was in no way a simple man!
But they were still baffled why he had suddenly wanted to take their lives!
The intensity of that oppressive pressure, was something Hua Yao and Qiao Chu were most acutely aware of. The brief moment of oppression that Jun Wu Yao had released, was so much more powerful than what they had felt from those two men from the Flame Demons Palace they had met back at the Cloudy Peaks before!
[This is on a completely different level!]
“That’s not true. It was Little Xie who was taking care of us instead.” Hua Yao was the first to regain his breath.
Qiao Chu was just smiling awkwardly at the side, obviously still rather shaken.
Jun Wu Xie smiled and nodded. Showing he had no intentions of continuing the conversation with Hua Yao and the others, Jun Wu Yao carried Jun Wu Xie and walked a distance away before sitting down together to rest. He carried out the actions so easily it seemed as if Jun Wu Xie was completely weightless.
“Was little Xie worrying about me earlier?” Jun Wu Yao asked, holding Jun Wu Xie’s small hand. That was the same hand that had covered his eyes earlier, when they were about to change in colour.
“Just afraid you will frighten them.” Jun Wu Xie replied nonchalantly.
It wasn’t intentional, it was just be reflex.
Jun Wu Yao’s identity had always been a mystery. Ever since Jun Wu Xie was reborn, she had never heard of anyone who possessed violet eyes. When she thought of the kind of trouble the rarity of owning a plant ring spirit had brought her, she had moved to cover up Jun Wu Yao’s peculiarity without thinking.
It wasn’t that she did not trust Qiao Chu and the others, but she just didn’t want any unnecessary trouble.
Jun Wu Yao smiled as he lifted Jun Wu Xie’s little hand, and planted a light kiss on it.
His little darling was beginning to want to protect him, and that pleased him greatly.
“This is for you.” Jun Wu Yao clasped Jun Wu Xie’s hand in his and spread open her palm, with his other hand, he took out a tiny golden bean and put it in her hand.
The tiny golden bean was dropped into Jun Wu Xie’s palm, and a warmth began to spread. Although she was just touching it lightly, she could feel the warmth spreading out from the skin that was contact with the bean, and reaching throughout her body. That warmth brought her comfort and even seemed to soothe her soul.
“This is?” Jun Wu Xie asked, raising her head to look at Jun Wu Yao.
Jun Wu Yao smiled and replied: “This can help you restore your soul. Although you will not immediately recover, but it will restore you little by little.”
Jun Wu Xie stared silently at Jun Wu Yao. Ye Sha had mentioned that Jun Wu Yao was not in the Lower Realm during this period, his disappearance must have had something to do with this golden bean.
[Did he seek this out specially for her?]
“Eat?” Jun Wu Xie asked after awhile.
Jun Wu Yao, however, shook his head.
Volume 7
Chapter 617: “Finally Missing Me? (5)”
Jun Wu Yao shook his head and held up Jun Wu Xie’s other hand, to place it over the golden bean to cover it before he whispered: “Just like how you would absorb a ring spirit, absorb the golden bean a little by little.”
Jun Wu Xie closed her eyes and did as what Jun Wu Yao told her, slowly absorbingly the golden bean clasped within her palm.
Closing her mind off, Jun Wu Xie’s soul seemed to plunge deep into a darkness. It was pitch black all around her, so dark she could not see her fingers before her face. But a streak of golden light suddenly flashed passed within that darkness, drawing a bright blinding arc.
The speed of the golden flashes grew, leaving many light trails in the darkness. While there was only one streak of light at first, as time went by, the number of streaks seemed to increase and crisscrossed each other, forming a gigantic blindingly bright golden net within the endless darkness!
Suddenly, that golden giant net exploded in a bright flash into glittering golden sparkles, falling against the darkness, before gradually disappearing.
Soon, everything became completely dark once more. After a momentary pause, a dim ray of golden light slowly appeared in the midst of the encompassing darkness.
That was a tiny golden bean, taking form as it coalesced hanging in midair, giving out a dim golden glow to shine out in all directions.
Jun Wu Xie felt her consciousness becoming more and more clouded, as the darkness surrounding her gradually closed in.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and Jun Wu Yao’s flawlessly handsome was reflected in her clear eyes.
It had been sunny before, but now, the woods was filled with the chirping of insects and the clear blue skies had been replaced by night. The moon hung over the horizon, and the vast endless skies were littered with millions of twinkling stars.
It had been just a blink, but half a day had passed.
Jun Wu Xie gathered her thoughts for a moment.
She felt as if she had only closed her eyes for just the briefest of moments but when she opened her eyes, the sky was already completely dark.
“How are you feeling?” Jun Wu Yao asked, beaming widely at her.
Jun Wu Xie snapped back to her senses and carefully checked the condition of her own soul. After the incident in the Cloudy Peaks, a part of her soul had been lacking and deficient and she had not been able to patch it up all this time. Although it was not usually obvious to people on most days, only Jun Wu Xie knew clearly how much of an inconvenience her incomplete soul was causing her.
After absorbing the golden bean, Jun Wu Xie’s soul was still not complete, but at least she did not tire so easily like before.
She seemed to be able to feel that her injured soul was gradually being restored at a extremely slow speed, and of she wanted it to be fully restored, it was not something that would be achieved in a short period of time.
“It works.” Jun Wu Xie clasped her hand over her chest, feeling her soul, regaining its harmony, under the mysterious healing power.
“That’s good.” Jun Wu Yao’s mouth broke into a smile and he withdrew the hand he had on Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder.
“What is that?” Jun Wu Xie had never seen a
nything like it. In her past life, even when science had been so amazingly advanced, it had still not been able to achieve any breakthrough in regards to the reconstruction and healing of souls.
“It’s just an interesting seed. Little Xie does not need to know its origins. As long as it works for you, then that is its use. If it doesn’t work, then it will just be useless rubbish.” Jun Wu Yao said lightly, trying to give the impression that even such a mystical golden bean, did not amount to much in his eyes.
Was that really true?
Jun Wu Xie did not believe it for a moment. If it was something that simple to him, why had he disappeared for such a long period of time?
But Jun Wu Yao was unwilling to speak more on it, and Jun Wu Xie was not about to press him further on it.
“Thank you.” Jun Wu Xie thanked him softly.
“I’ve said it before. With Little Xie, I have no need for any thanks.” Jun Wu Yao gripped on Jun Wu Xie’s small hand. Although he was saying that with his mouth, his eyes nevertheless lit up with joy.

Chapter 618: “Finally Missing Me? (6)”
Under the soft moonlight, the two people were just staring at each other. Qiao Chu was chewing on his cured beef jerky sitting beside the fire, his eyes getting more confused as he observed the two people.
Those two had remained in that position for a long time and Jun Wu Xie had even seemed to have fallen asleep in the middle.
Even if he did not have any siblings himself, he could help but ask himself why was he feeling that the way that pair of siblings interacted with each other was a little “unconventional”?
Which elder brother would hold his sister’s hand for so long and always hold such a doting expression on his face throughout it all?
“Not alike….. Not alike at all…..” Qiao Chu muttered softly to himself.
Fei Yan shot a glance at Qiao Chu, and stuck a roasted rabbit’s leg right before Qiao Chu’s eyes, blocking his voyuering eyes.
