Accidentally Married a Fox God

Amid the stalks of herbs in Li Meirong's garden, a pair of twin foxes crept between the many different types of aromatic leaves. As silent as expert thieves, their soft and tiny paw pads hadn't made so much as a single sound to announce their arrival.

"Do you think it's safe for us to approach, sister?" one fox anxiously inquired.

The fox's identical twin let out a jeering laugh. "The aggressive aura surrounding the perimeters has reduced significantly and appears to be unusually pleasant. I'd say it's safe enough."

"But what if His Lordship punishes us for intruding on his precious time?"

The fox rolled her eyes at her sister. "You worry too much! I don't think His Lordship has the patience to take care of us mere subordinates, even if he wanted to. He's probably exhausted from all of his nightly labours!"

"I don't think His Lordship was busy working last night, or that he's possibly tired in any way." The worried fox retorted.

The fox's identical twin sighed. "Dearest sister of mine, sometimes you are far too innocent for your own good."

"Sister, His Lordship is our Sovereign Lord! It will not be a very simple task to exhaust a godly entity of his caliber. And also, His Lordship spent all of his time with Her Ladyship, so what could he possibly do make him feel tired?"

The worried fox's words came out as a furious whisper, not fully understanding the double meaning behind her own twin's wise words.

In response, the twin fox sister gave her anxious sister a pointed look, bopping her sister's pink button nose. "Fine then, explain to me, if you will, why did the killing aura diminish? What else could make His Lordship's mood suddenly change for the better?"

The worried fox blinked her eyes a few times over, looking lost.

Her twin sister looked up to the skies as if to seek help from the heavens above. Then, she drew circle patterns on her furry belly with her tiny paw, in an attempt to emphasize the point of what she had just mentioned.

Understanding suddenly dawned on the anxious fox's face. A few tiny leaves of thyme rustled as she backed up a step. "You mean to say, that the rice has been finally cooked?"

The fox's twin sister smirked, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively. "Heh, not only has it been fully cooked, I bet it's been cooking all night long!"

"Sister An Hua, you have no sense of shame!" The little fox averted her eyes in embarrassment and added, "Regardless, we should do what we were instructed to do, and since His Lordship wanted us to present him with that fool, Bai Yu, then we must respectfully announce our arrival."

"I don't think there's any need for that. Look there," said Xiao An Hua as she involuntarily gulped aloud. She pointed a single claw at Bai Qingyue's ethereal figure approaching them from a distance.

Her sister, Xiao An Fei, quickly looked up, her paws beginning to tremble. "Do we have the loot prepared?"

Xiao An Hua glanced back at the big brown sack dragging behind them. "Yes, the loot is right here, ready to be delivered!"

The 'loot' in question, was none other than the former second in command. The terrified subordinate who had previously run away to save his precious life, was currently confined inside the bag, fully prepared to be handed out to the executioner by the hands of his own comrades.

Bai Yu's stifled voice wailed from inside the bag, "Let me out, you fiendish vixens! Are you really so heartless as to willingly have my blood on your hands?!"

The Xiao twins eyed each other with an identical smile and nodded their heads. "Yeah, no problem there."
