That night, Bai Chuan was once again beaten up by Liu Qi as they got ready for bed.
Why? Because he secretly touched Liu Qi's butt. Afterwards, he even sought death, giving it a rub.
Liu Qi forced Bai Chuan's head down and positioned him across his lap, 'pa pa' slapped his butt a few times. After beating, his tone was fierce as he asked, "Still dare to touch next time?" (so there's a next time?)
Bai Chuan's crying was heart-rending as he lamented, "Aren't we married? Why am I not allowed to consummate the marriage?"
Liu Qi's face turned a little red and answered, "I don't like men."
"I don't like too," Bai Chuan's crying face retorted.
"Then what are you still touching for?!"
"We still have to consummate the marriage sooner or later ah. Even if I don't like, I still need to make do. Do you expect me to rub it myself forever?" Bai Chuan felt that he had been wronged to no end.
"Sure, just rub," was Liu Qi's heartless reply.
Bai Chuan fell onto the bed, paralyzed, his expression seemed like if there was no one to love in his life, then there would be no point in living. "I don't want to be alive anymore."
"Oh." Liu Qi's reply was still cold as ice.
Bai Chuan gulped down his saliva and haggled, "But if you bake two pieces of meat patty for me, maybe I can still live for a few more days."
Liu Qi covered the blanket over himself and prepared to sleep. "Not baking."
Bai Chuan was relentless and pressed down Liu Qi's body as he curried favor with him. "Then you can just fry a few sunny side up eggs, I can sustain myself until breakfast tomorrow."
Liu Qi, with a sincere look, "Just go die."
The hungry and gluttonous River God Daren strolled into the kitchen in indignation, his hungry pair of eyes shining brightly. He flipped through every cabinet within the four walls, and only managed to find a few mantous with difficulty. Scouring around one more time, he found a jar of chili sauce, and happily dipped the mantou in it to enjoy.
Liu Qi's handmade chili sauce was particularly delicious. The moment he started, he just couldn't stop.
It would be infinitely better if there were some freshly baked meat patties, was what the River God Daren sourly thought, as he vigorously irrigated his mouth by drinking cold water. The newly married wife completely didn't love him at all.

In the morning, Liu Qi was horrified to find that the whole jar of chili sauce he had saved and kept in the kitchen cabinets was all gone.
Bai Chuan, in the meantime, just came out from the toilet holding his stomach and spoke to himself with a look of suffering, "Hiss... So painful so painful. It was spicy when it went into my stomach, but coming out it's even spicier."
Seeing him in this state, Liu Qi pointed at the empty jar, "You secretly ate it?"
Bai Chuan righteously criticized Liu Qi, "I am still a River God, why would I steal a commoners chili sauce to eat? Don't slander me."
Liu Qi then quietly said, "Did I say that this was originally used to keep chili sauce?"
Bai Chuan immediately ran towards the door with a guilty conscience.
