Sugar-fried Chestnuts

Yun Si was the world’s first cluster amaryllis of Hell, also known as a Red Spider Lily. She was compatible with ghost fire, capable of commanding a hundred demons, and was especially adept in causing hallucinations. 

After a shocking encounter with the legendary gentleman, Jiu Ge, she fell deeply for him, captivated by his tenderness and beauty. Yun Si chirped, “Jiu Ge, Jiu Ge, can I court you?” The elegant man smiled gently and shook his head. Then, Yun Si successfully held his hand. She began wanting a mile after being given an inch. “Jiu Ge, Jiu Ge, can I hug you?” The gentleman kindly refused. Then, Yun Si successfully hugged him. “Jiu Ge, Jiu Ge, I want to kiss you.” The gentleman poked her forehead and said, “Miss, please behave.” The seductive Red Spider Lily spirit blinked her beautiful eyes and stood on tip toes. She easily got what she wanted. 

Thus, the little spirit was punished into making a copy of precepts because she did something wrong. The little spirit continued to hound after the gentleman. The gentleman looked down at their linking hands and said softly without getting angry, “You’re a lady, so you should conduct yourself with dignity.” “I don’t want to!” The little spirit stayed close to him and never left his side. 

She always assumed he had a gentle temperament, until one day, she witnessed a woman confessing to him. When the woman took a step forward, the gentleman’s face immediately darkened, and he kicked her away. Then, he barked coldly, “Get lost.” The woman fled in tears. The little spirit who kept hounding after the gentleman every day for hugs and kisses was confused. So the gentleman can be fierce… So the gentleman can be rough… 

A bold spirit vs a gentleman who tends to reject her on the outside, but dotes on her on the inside

Jiu Ge's Beloved Spirit

Then, the little girl successfully kissed the sleeping man. She heaved a sigh of relief. She continued to hold the bell on her ankle and went back to copy the commandments scroll.

She kissed him in the morning and was punished to copy the commandment scroll ten times again.

She didn't finish copying and had to continue in the afternoon.

But she could kiss him a little longer every afternoon.

He wouldn't find out that she had kissed him secretly if he was asleep.

This way, she wouldn't be punished by copying the commandment.

The little girl held the bell on her ankle happily and walked away quietly.

The breeze blew, and the colorful petals fell.

Under the quiet and peaceful peach blossom forest, the man slowly opened his eyes.

His gentle and beautiful purple eyes were so clean that there was no impurity.

He just quietly watched the little girl in the distance bitterly copying the commandment scroll, and paused for a moment.

The corners of his lips curved up slightly.

The peerlessly beautiful young master slowly raised his hand and gently touched the corner of his lips with his gentle and beautiful fingertips,

He seemed to be murmuring. In his gentle voice, there was a faint smile.

His words sounded like a sigh and helplessness. They were like a gentle breeze, drifting in the air and disappearing in a flash.

The petals that fell all over the ground were witness to their intimacy.

Her clear eyes were filled with shock.

Taosheng was basking in the warm sunlight as she greeted Yun Si in a childish voice.

Yun Si slightly clenched her fists and did not say a word.

After a while, she lifted the blanket and got out of bed.

"Taosheng, does Jiuge like me?" Yun Si's voice trembled.

She had kissed him secretly, but he had always known.

He even said she was stupid because she didn't understand his feelings.

"It's ... It was true, and ... Or is it just my imagination?"

Taosheng made a sound of surprise and moved its petals. It was a little hesitant.

"Sisi, I don't know what Master Jiuge is thinking. But I think he likes you."

After all, no matter how good-tempered Jiuge was, he didn't have to tolerate someone he didn't like for so long, right?

Moreover, Master Jiuge was good to her.

He picked the peaches used to make the peach blossom crisps every day in the morning.

He carefully selected each piece and placed them in the flower basket.

Yun Si had woken up late, so she didn't know.

But Taosheng lived in the peach forest.

It watched Jiuge pick flowers in the forest and make peach blossom crisps every day.

When Yun Si's clothes were torn, he would take a needle and thread to fix her clothes.

A grown man, with his head lowered, patiently sewed her clothes. He even thoughtfully folded them and placed them by her bed.

He taught her how to read and write gently, and supervised her as she read.

Even a fool could tell Jiuge had fallen for Yun Si.

Tao Sheng shook its flower branch and sighed.

Sisi had never noticed these details.

She had also never realized Master Jiuge's overwhelming gentleness towards her.

This kind of silent feeling in the spring rain was...

In comparison, the person it had met before was frustrating.

"Sisi, why don't you try to believe it? Believe that Master Jiuge likes you. Maybe something unexpected will happen?"

Taosheng's soft petals touched Yun Si's hand, and its tone was probing.
