[Powerful cultivation, the fox world's number-one beauty, a great fox] x [green and inexperienced, short on ambition, timid little bunny]
A Rong really, really, really, really hates the vendor at the stall next door.
She sells white radishes, and the stall next door sells wild white radishes. Their business is better than hers.
She sells pickled radishes, and the stall next door sells radishes in bean paste. Their business is better than hers +1.
She sells white radish cakes, and the stall next door sells red radish cakes. Their business is better than hers +2.
Looking at the neighboring stall, whose business is 10086 times better than hers, A Rong grits her teeth and brings out the recipe she's been saving for a special occasion: fried radish balls!
A Rong declares confidently, "Today, I'm definitely beating the stall next door!"
But reality gives her a face-slapping smack, smack: the neighboring stall is thriving, while her own stall is deserted.
A Rong can't take it anymore. She rolls up her sleeves and charges over to the next stall. "I refuse to believe that after a thousand years of cultivation, I can't beat some brat stealing my customers!"
But when she sees the spicy rabbit heads at the neighboring stall and the vendor's smiling, foxlike eyes, A Rong's legs tremble. She chickens out. "Great one, would you like to try some fried radish balls? They're my own special recipe, fresh out of the fryer!"
The great one smiles, charming in a thousand ways. "No need for the balls. You can stay."
A Rong drops to her knees with a thud, clutches the great one's leg, and stares in terror. "I'm skin and bones. I wouldn't taste good as spicy rabbit, and I wouldn't taste good braised either!"
The great one thinks: The world is full of complications. This little thing I've protected for so long is so innocent. I have to keep a close eye on her, or someone will sell her off and she'll even help them count the money.
#The more she loves radishes, the more he loves her#
#With me around, no one can bully you (except me, of course)#
#He bullies her openly, from the market stall to the bedroom#
Theme: Because of you, I want to become a better person. I don't want to be a burden to you, so I'll work hard, just to prove that I'm worthy of you.
