When I woke up, it was three days later. I opened my eyes only to find Fairy Willow and Fairy Pine standing in front of me motionlessly. Seeing me waking up, Fairy Willow smiled and walked out in a hurry. As she walked out, she said: “You’ve finally woken up. I’m going to tell the emperor right now!”

As for Fairy Pine, he seemed to be indignant, glaring at me without blinking. I didn’t know what he was thinking about, but his face was red with anger.

I was shocked, but I still didn’t know why I had displeased this alpha male.

“Morning, Fairy Pine!” I greeted Fairy Pine unwillingly.

“Humph!” Fairy Pine looked away from me and went directly outside. I was puzzled by the grief and indignation in his expression. I didn’t steal his pine cones this time.

I patted on my head and got up groggily.

“My sister, you are finally awake!” At this moment, Bai Qingqing entered my bedroom leisurely.

“Why?” I clearly noticed the excitement on her face and asked her why she said so.

“Well, my sister, you’re really brilliant. You’re the pride of our fox family. On behalf of the fox family I have to praise you today!” Bai Qingqing smiled.

I rubbed my eyes and asked her again: “What did I do to win such admiration?”

“Tsk. Tsk.” Bai Qingqing looked at me up and down, smiled teasingly and said: “It is not a good idea to pretend that you’ve forgotten everything. Now immortals in heaven all know that you harassed the emperor in front of Queen Mother and all the fairies. How can you continue to live in heaven in the future?”

“What?” I stared and suddenly jumped up from the bed. This was definitely a bolt from the blue. This was not true!

Bai Qingqing paused when she saw my shocked face. Then she covered her mouth and giggled. For me, it was typical schadenfreude. “If you were too drunk to remember what happened that day, I will help you to recollect your memory!”

As she said, I saw a flash of white light in the hands of Bai Qingqing, and she pointed lightly on my forehead with her slender finger. Then I saw the scene that made me extremely ashamed and resentful. At Queen Mother’s birthday party, I drank all the nectar in the wine pot bravely, and then I approached the emperor with a hell of a lot of nerve. I gave him a bear hug when the emperor was distracted by other things. I became a fox driven by passion and kissed him directly on his face…

Then, all the immortals who had been talking and laughing suddenly became quiet. They looked at me, who wanted to harass the emperor, with their rigid faces. But I was reckless and didn’t know what was going on. I looked at Emperor of Donghua as he was shocked by my kiss, and his earlobe flushed. I found him lovelier than ever before. Without saying anything, I kissed him again on his face. After that kiss, I even licked my lips and said: “Your Majesty, you’re so handsome and taste very good…”

He looked stunned.

All immortals were silent.

Seeing this, I finally burst into tears.

Was that me? How could this be me? I licked Bai Xiaoshan when I first met him, and for this ignorant mistake I was enslaved by him for more than one thousand years. After that, I dared not do such things that harm others without benefiting myself. But I harassed Emperor of Donghua! How could I continue to live in heaven? All the immortals wanted to drown me with their own spittle.

“My sister, I didn’t expect you to covet the emperor for a long time. You are indeed a brave young lady of the fox family. Your vision and courage are indeed extraordinary!” Bai Qingqing said with a smile. I could see that she was excited because of this gossip.

I was going to flush myself down the toilet, so I changed back to be the fox. I shook my tail and crawled under the cover painfully. Bai Xiaoshan, it seemed that I would die in heaven before I could find you. How could I be so unlucky?

I didn’t know how long I had stayed in my bed. Suddenly, the quilt was uncovered. I thought it was Bai Qingqing, so I continued to lie there and kept silent.

“What’s wrong, Li?” The heavenly voice sounded. It seemed that he smiled slightly.

I looked back and saw Emperor of Donghua standing in front of me with a smile. My face turned red again. Fortunately, he might not notice my flush under the cover of my fox fur.

I hung my head down and continued to be stuffy. It was not shameful to drink, but it was hideous to be flirtatious after drinking. What’s more, I even harassed Emperor of Donghua, who was respected by everyone in the world. I had no way out!

Seeing me being so depressed, Emperor of Donghua sighed and picked me up. His slender fingers touched my fox fur from time to time and he said lightly: “I remember that it was not you who was harassed that day. Why are you so embarrassed?”

I didn’t know what to say. I was not embarrassed by this but mourning for my future!

I kept silent. Emperor of Donghua had nothing to do but to change me back to the human with a spell. He looked at me with his beautiful eyes and asked: “What do you want to do, Li?”

I blinked my tearful eyes and uttered slowly: “Your Majesty, can I see the portrait of the beauty in your cabinet?”

He was stunned, and suddenly flashed. He looked back and gave a dry cough. Finally, he asked: “Why do you want to look at it?”

Emperor of Donghua must have an affair! I was calm again. I was flirtatious after drinking, but after I spilled out this affair, no one would pay attention to me!

“Your Majesty, won’t you show it to me?” I continue to blink, trying to show my purest innocence.

He turned his head back and there was no longer embarrassment on his face. He was calm. He glanced at me and asked: “Do you really want to see it?”

I kept nodding my head. He didn’t know that I had coveted that portrait for a long time, and I would definitely ask him to show it to me.

He didn’t speak again. With a wave of his long sleeve, a white porcelain vase suddenly appeared in his hand. The vase was almost the same as those I saw in his cabinet.

“The portrait is right here. You can take it out.” He handed the vase to me and said.

I couldn’t help but grinning. I took out the scroll from the inside, opened it while asking him recklessly: “Hey Your Majesty, this must be your confidante! Are you two having an affair?”

He was shocked by what I said, and then he smiled and said: “You can say that!”

I was even more satisfied when I heard him admitting it himself. I slowly opened the scroll and looked at the beauty inside. When I saw her face, my smile suddenly froze and my eyes were fixed on the picture. I was completely stunned!

The beauty in this portrait turned out to be me!

“What’s wrong? Why do you stop talking?” He noticed my embarrassment and pretended to ask me innocently.

“Your Majesty, I was just joking. Don’t worry!” After a long time, I said weakly.

“Oh? Which sentence is a joke? A confidante or an affair?” He smiled slightly, which always seemed to be schadenfreude for me.

“All of them!” I blushed and explained with a loud voice.

“Have a good rest. I should go back now!” He didn’t make fun of me anymore. He stood up and went out.

“Your Majesty, was that painting replaced?” I suddenly asked. If the beauty was me, Bai Qingqing could definitely recognize me!

He stopped and looked back at me. He smiled and said lightly: “You’re so smart!”

Looking at him walking out of the door happily, I beat my chest and stamped my feet in great sorrow. Why was I so stupid? How could I be fooled by him? I was the cleverest fox! How shameful it was!

“Your lunch is ready, please have lunch!” Suddenly, Fairy Willow appeared by my bedside and reminded me of the lunchtime. I looked up and saw that Fairy Willow’s expression was normal, but Fairy Pine was still sulky. It seemed that I owed him tons of silver ingots!

“I don’t want to eat!” I beat the bed and changed back to be the fox. I ran to the yard to bask in the sun!
