JOY OF LIFE

[VOLUME 2] chapter 118: A Tale of Quarreling Fairies

Letting gowhy should he have had to? But seeing the young bride savoring her happiness, Fan Xian could not be like Liuxia Hui [1] and ignore the fire that burned within him. If he were to let go, hed never forgive himself. There was no need to decline to devour what was offered to him.

So, the two of them came together as one.

...

...

Despite the trees providing shelter, the lake mountains held many sights, and the sight of this couple being intimate would eventually be seen by the maidservants. Those maidservants were smart and took the hint; each one of them looked away, some flipped the slices of meat, some pretended to check the misss makeup box, while some didnt know what to do and can only pretend to have sprained their ankles.

Fan Sizhe was chewing happily and didnt notice the "quarreling fairies". Ruoruo was currently taking a stroll by the woods; she didnt to seem to pay attention to what was going on over there. The maidservants did not clear their throats nonstop to try to stop this improper behavior because Fan Xian had been preparing them for this in the past few days.

If its about national matters, then you must bribe the leading government figures. If its about household affairs, you must bribe the maidservants. Fan Xian knew that well and had been generously rewarding them thanks to his status as a functionary and the fact his bookstore kept on churning out money. The maidservants were all delighted and were won over to their future masters side.

Neither one of the couple knew how much had passed before they parted from one another. Both panting, their hair slightly messy, looking a bit pathetic. Rather than being intimate, it looked more like they had a fight.

Lin Waner combed her hair with her hand and took a glance at the maidservants in the distance who didnt seem to notice. Still, she was quite upset and glared angrily at Fan Xian. To do this in broad daylight, this was too ridiculous. But the sweet fragrance lingering on her lips made her heart flutter like crazy.

"What are you afraid of? I never saw you this uncomfortable all those nights." Fan Xian teased her. With "tricky fingers", he gently flicked her earlobe.

Waner could only sigh lightly. She raised her small fist and hammered down on Fan Xians chest.

"The husband is being murdered." This was a joke told too many times by Fan Xian and his friends in his previous life. But to his fiance, it was quite new.

Waner bit him on the wrist. Fan Xian forcibly stopped himself from shouting out. He forced a smile and said, "The fairies arent fighting, whats gotten into you?"

"Fighting fairies" came from the seventy-third chapter of Dream of the Red Chamber. In it, the guileless Sister Sha picked up a sachet in the Grand View Garden. On the sachet was an embroidery depicting a man and a woman embracing in the nude. Sister Sha did not realize it was a pornographic scene and thought they were fairies fighting. She gave the sachet to Lady Xing and a fable was born.

No one here should know this story. However, recently, Lin Waner learned her own future husband opened up a bookstore with Story of the Stone as its bestseller. She made Fan Xian "copy" down the later few chapters. Hearing "fighting fairies" made her blush. "Who do you think I am?"

Fan Xian snickered, "A good person, of course. Those before us once said, the fairies fought a fight of perfection. Besides, what we did was fairies quarreling."

"Bah! To hell with your nonsense. Those before us? Please dont use their name for this." Lin Waner laughed. "Also, what is the difference between quarreling and fighting fairies?"
