How fared the children this morning?

[shangba]

Shall I write him, also?

He cannot ignore two.

[emperorssmile]

One sect leader to another?

I’ll write him again. Maybe invite him to Cloud Recesses. He liked A-Liang. I’ll leave the demonic cultivators out of it and talk to him about it again in person.

[shangba]

Yes.

A formal invitation, to follow my assumption.

[emperorssmile]

Sure, that might work. I did say I wouldn’t write him again if he didn’t want to hear from me, so it might be better if you write him after all.

Until then, I’ll work my charm on the non-cultivators in Caiyi.

[shangba]

How many cups of wine will my husband purchase the non-cultivators?

[emperorssmile]

You know me so well! I’ll just order one or two rounds. I can’t be the only one paying!

[shangba]

I pray they do not misunderstand Wei Ying's intentions.

[emperorssmile]

If any do, I’ll just tell them I’m happily married to a powerful cultivator.

I can get along with most people in a group setting, but I don’t know if I’ll make any meaningful friendships. It depends on the other person as much as it depends on me.

[shangba]

Wei Ying has often achieved the impossible.

[emperorssmile]

You really want me to go out and make friends, don’t you?

Maybe I can make friends with other guys who have young kids. Make some play dates for A-Liang.

[shangba]

...older men. Ugly.

[emperorssmile]

There he is! My adorably jealous husband who doesn’t realize he is and will always be hottest guy in the world to me.

[shangba]

You condescend me.

[emperorssmile]

Sorry, sorry!

I just love you so much! You really are the one I adore more than anything and I can’t help but tease you.

[shangba]

You enjoy the teasing.

[emperorssmile]

Does it bother you?

[shangba]

...cannot begrudge you.

[emperorssmile]

Lan Zhan… I don’t want to do something that hurts you. It’s okay to point out when I’m being a jerk.

[shangba]

I do not... always laugh. At Wei Ying's jests.

[emperorssmile]

So, is it because of bringing up the jealousy thing? Or was it something else?

[shangba]

It feels at times as if Wei Ying considers my jealousy amusing. Flattering.

[emperorssmile]

I do. It’s part of who you are.

But you don’t like that part of yourself, huh?

[shangba]

It shames my husband.

[emperorssmile]

Because you’re scared I’m going to run off with someone else?

I was worried about that too when we hadn’t been married for long.

[shangba]

Wei Ying so often rejected me.

Cannot begrudge me for wondering.
