Fairy Massage

Getting closer, Xiao Dongchen only then noticed that today's young woman was dressed quite extraordinarily.

A pale-green long dress enveloped her curvaceous figure, the dress dotted with little blue sapphires. Upon her waterfall-like pitch-black hair sat a jade-inlaid golden phoenix hairpin, and a pair of petite deep-blue earrings matched with a purple-gold inlaid blue-jade pendant made her look elegant and luxurious overall.

Her delicate face and elegant swan-like jade neck led down to a slender waist beneath a slightly developed, perky chest, and further down still were a pair of long, plump, beautiful legs that made men unable to look away, fair and smooth with alluring curves.

The young woman's eyes were sparkling and vibrantly dynamic, coupled with that unique, lotus-like elegant and noble aura that made one sigh at a fairy descending to the mortal realm.

Seeing the young man's burning gaze, Xiao Xun'er panicked slightly all at once, her heart involuntarily pounding wildly.

"What, what are you looking at? Never seen a beauty before!"

She lowered her head slightly, keeping her hands behind her back as a flush quietly crept onto her cheeks.

"With little miss dressing up so pretty, aren't you afraid of being targeted by bad guys?"

Xiao Dongchen came back to his senses, pretending to glance over casually before curving his lips into a mischievous smile. "Weren't you curious about what's inside my room? Do you want to go in and take a look together?"

The young man's tone was ethereal, and his manner looked exactly like a big bad wolf trying to lure Little Red Riding Hood.

"Pfft, who cares about seeing your doghouse!"

Xiao Xun'er stamped her foot, her complexion growing even more flushed. She crossed her arms, pouting her lips as she continued, "Bad guy, are you still keeping your word about going shopping together yesterday?"

"Of course it counts. Being able to go on a date with Miss Xun'er is something I naturally couldn't ask for more than."

Xiao Dongchen smiled, teasing with a playful expression.

"You're the only one with such a foul mouth!"

Xiao Xun'er was left between laughter and tears. She shook off the large hand on her arm, turned, and walked away swaying her waist.

Shaking his head with slight helplessness, Xiao Dongchen, who was in a good mood, also smiled and followed after her, the two walking side by side.

Halfway there, some clansmen didn't look too surprised upon seeing this scene. After all, though they admired this golden boy and jade girl of mysterious identities, they could only feel ashamed of their own inferiority.

Ignoring the complicated expressions of those clansmen, Xiao Dongchen brought Xun'er out of the front gates of the Xiao Household, picked a bustling long street, and leisurely bantered and coaxed her while strolling through.

Wu Tan City wasn't too big, nor was it too small. Outside, the sun was bright and cicadas chirped endlessly, yet the streets were still surging with crowds and bustling intensely.

After coaxing Xun'er, Xiao Dongchen's disaster descended.

Who could understand what kind of experience it was to accompany a girl shopping and buying things?

Upon reaching the street, Xiao Xun'er said with her mouth that she wasn't angry anymore, but she ended up stubbornly dragging Xiao Dongchen along to pick and look through stall after stall, waving her little hand and packing up everything she took the slightest liking to.

And Xiao Dongchen helplessly became like a lackey, carrying burdens on his shoulders and holding things in his hands, still having to continue following the lively and nimble Xun'er around in a chaotic spin. Not long after, even with his dignified Dou Ling strength, he grew a little dizzy and almost lost his bearings.

"Tee-hee, it's over here!"

Watching the young man's flustered and foolish appearance, Xiao Xun'er couldn't help laughing until her flower-like body trembled, the triumphant and spoiled expression in her pretty eyes overflowing into words.

Seeing the young man arrive beside her, she put her hands on her hips, lowered her head slightly, and spoke with a rather amused demeanor, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Chen? How did you end up in such a sorry state?"

Hearing this, Xiao Dongchen raised his head slightly, his mouth unable to help twitching fiercely. The young woman before him was as bright as a flower and breathtakingly lovely, but in his current view she possessed the potential of a little demoness.

Carrying things on his shoulders and hands was one thing, but she had even hung numerous bags around his neck and waist. What was even more infuriating was that despite this, she still wouldn't let him use his storage ring for the items she continued to pick out—it was simply too bullying!

Say nothing more; daring to mock him meant Great Desolate Prisoner's Finger was ready, for he was exhausted!

Well, that was what he thought, but he still couldn't bear to do it. Gritting his teeth and rolling his eyes, he said, "Serving Miss Xun'er is my honor, but I want to buy you a gift personally. Going over like this... wouldn't it be inappropriate?"

"A gift?"

Xiao Xun'er's eyes lit up, carrying quite an expectant flavor. Then she wrinkled her dainty nose and said indifferently, "Seeing that you're so sincere, I'll magnanimously let you off! I'm a little tired from shopping; let's rest for a while before we go again."

Xiao Dongchen nodded and snapped his fingers, whereupon all the packages on his body vanished entirely. Afterward, the two arrived at a shady spot under a tree, and Xiao Dongchen flipped his hand to produce two benches, sitting down himself first while making a polite gesture inviting her to sit.

However, Xiao Xun'er shook her head instead, her eyes suddenly curving into shallow crescent moons, and with a pretty, coy smile she came up behind the young man.

Before the young man could even react, a pair of slender jade hands rested upon his shoulders, the cool sensation instantly making Xiao Dongchen feel that something wasn't right.

A fairy massage, and there was even this perk?

Well then, bring it on.

Closing his eyes, Xiao Dongchen didn't look at all, leaving everything strictly up to fate.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Xun'er was stunned for a moment before brilliant red clouds quietly climbed onto her face. Fidgeting for a bit, she finally began massaging away in a fairly decent manner.

Originally, although her anger had dissipated, her heart ached for him, and she had thought of letting the latter relax. As a result, he had accepted it just like that, so calmly?

Shameless, jerk!

When you ask him to take responsibility he refuses, yet he neither initiates nor rejects—what on earth are you trying to pull, hey!

She, the dignified young miss of the Gu Clan, was actually massaging a jerk; there was simply no justice left in the world.

As she massaged on, the more Xiao Xun'er thought about it, the angrier she grew, and the angrier she grew, the harder she pressed, until even dots of golden flames flickered within her pretty eyes.

Hold on, something's wrong; this strength is way too heavy!

Xiao Dongchen, who was lying there playing innocent, felt the gradually increasing hand pressure and finally couldn't help opening his eyes, turning his head as his mouth twitched. "Xun'er, was that necessary? Are you trying to murder your husband?"

Husband, whose husband are you?

Seeing the young man turn his head to question her, Xiao Xun'er stopped her technique and froze slightly. Only then did she figure it out, and the expression on her small face instantly turned complicated.

After a moment, watching Xiao Dongchen's cheap-looking expression, Xiao Xun'er blinked her pretty eyes, rolled them, and then flashed a sly smile, leaning close to the latter's ear to say lingeringly, "Brother Chen, are you serious?"

"Huh?"

This sudden reaction completely baffled Xiao Dongchen, and he sprang straight up from his chair, hurriedly waving his hands as he said, "We're still young, so we need to think this over carefully. Let's talk about it after you reach adulthood."

With a sharp turn of phrase, Xiao Dongchen changed the subject.

"Well, we've pretty much finished walking around. Do you want to go take a look at the marketplace later?"

Playing this trick again? Fine, this old hermit has his own clever schemes!

Xiao Xun'er secretly gritted her teeth while maintaining a calm expression on the surface. Immediately following that, a brilliant smile hung on her face.

"Hehe, the marketplace? It doesn't matter. As long as I'm with Brother Chen, we can go anywhere."

After saying that, disregarding the gazes of the crowd on the street, she stepped forward to link her arm through the youth's sleeve, her lotus steps moving lightly with a charming smile.

Xiao Dongchen followed along, turning his head slightly to catch a glimpse of that breathtaking profile—peerless in beauty and a feast for the eyes.

Trying the beauty trap on me, are you?

Ah, hanging around this young master for too long has made you learn bad habits after all, Xun'er.
