Hu Li for the first time, she experience something she never in her wildest thoughts that two person can be join temporally and experience a strange emotion that runs deep in their bodies at the same time. She hear herself moans and so did Sheng Qin. He growls and moan deep. All she knows she doesn't wish that he stop at what he is doing. It's too good for them to stop. However the bed is the annoying one. The moment they move, it makes noises and join in their union. Sheng Qin try to gently move but the bed still makes those noises along. He gives up and give it all his might to release himself completely. He let go twice in an urgency before the sun raises. He looks at his wife who is stroking his cheeks. He kiss her gently. When the sun is up, she disappears. He sight and close his eyes. He mumble softy. 'You are going to be replace...' He then hits the bed pole with his fist.
Hu Li lay in her scroll feeling strange. Now in her fox form, she can't see her bottom. She notice her tails now, two tails and maybe one spurting out. She lay down quietly and look at empty ancestor hall. She close her eyes and think of the erotic things she just did and she giggle to herself. She see Sheng Qin walk into the ancestor hall and did his morning prayers. He look and see his scroll is hanging in there. He pick it up and walk away whistling. He goes into his study room and hang it up on the usual spot. His wife is now resting in the scroll. He notice the scroll is no longer an empty one. She is surround with natural elements in it. He look to the right side where the other painting of his wife where the street painter had drawn her. He wonder if they have children, how are they going to look like. Whatever they look like, he make sure he will take care of them and hid them well. He smile and whistle as he walk away.
That evening, Hu Li step out of the scroll, she see him siting on the couch waiting for her. Before she can put on the dress he prepare for her. He grab her waist and sweep in a kiss. Even though he can't see, he can feel her excitement and delight.
"I want to show you how much i love you and i need you and want you everyday of my life."
He whisper softy to her. Her heart beats fast with every word he said. She feels like she is sweep away by a windy day. This man makes her feel excited and wanted. He hugs her naked body and feels the smooth skin she have. Just then the door open and uncle Tian brings in some congee that is left over. Nine aunty follows behind closely to bring in some pig totter soup. The two old folks stand at where they are and frozen to see their naked lady. Sheng Qin turn around his body to shield Hu Li's naked body. For a while they all did not move till Nine aunty yell at Uncle Tian to go out with her. They hurry to close the door and accidentally spilt the soup on the floor.
"I think the scroll have to move to the bedroom."
Hu Li smile and look at him with her golden sparkling eyes.
Every evening is the golden hour for them. The old servants understand that they should stay away for the couple probably is going to make a baby. The old servants will pray at the temple for blessing the young couple a child to carry on the blood line. However this prayer brings someone into the living quarter. The goddess of fertility walk into the garden and admire the full abidance in it. Hu Li who feels her presence is inside the scroll unable to step out. The evening sun is setting but the invisible prison wall is still up. Hu Li hears a calm sweet voice.
"i command you to appear in my presence."
Hu Li stands up in her world. She puts her paw through the wall to test if it is there. It is gone despite the time is not right. She step out of the scroll and morph into her two leg human form. She quickly put on her dress and walk out. She sense that whoever had command her present must be in the garden waiting. She walk there calmly. Her head tilt to her left upon seeing her.
"You call for me?"
A sweet looking face look at Hu Li. She smile with her dimples.
"You managed the garden well. Everything looks fresh and healthy. The people who eat these will benefit good health."
"I hope to have good harvest for the family. I did not think too much in this."
"Still it is a good intention."
"What is your name?"
She smile and wave her vase which have a flower. The vat which have fishes in it grow a little louts in it.
"I have a lot of names. I don't remember them. You can call me Bai Xia."
"My name is Bai Hu Li. We have the same word Bai!" Hu LI look down on the ground and she notice both of them are not wearing shoes.
"i know. We come from the same origins. However i am created longer than you. You are the last generation for our kind."
"You are a beast too??"
"I am not. Somehow we are made from the same elements. I am a believe for mankind. While you are created to defend them in times of needs."
The goddess walk a bit and stop with her back facing Hu Li she say softy.
"The Yue family have come daily for prayers for a child for the young master."
Hu Li's eye brow goes up and wonder if this why her presence here is needed?
"I can grant that wish... Do you want to have a child?"
"I ... i am a child myself. I don't even know many things in this world but Sheng Qin is knowledgeable! He knows everything but he seems to have a problem with his vision. Not that he can't see. He seems to able to see things but ..."
"He have no problem with his vision. This comes gift comes along with the selected person every few generations. His destiny is to have the gift to find the guidance for his family. However because he have fall in love with you, he does not see that you someone different. He see you as his love of his life."
"Love of his life... what does it mean?"
"Love is a feeling. Love can be anything. Your love is not restrain. You love everything and want everyone to love you. While his love is selfish. He wants you and only you to love him. Having a child is another type of love."
She turn around and look at Hu Li. She smile again to show her dimples.
"If you have a child, that child will be different. He will be just a human with unlimited time on him. He will resent you later in life because he will watch his half siblings get married have children and die. The cycle is endless just because they are all human."
"He will resent me?"
"You had a dream a few days ago, remember? That is your first time, maybe the last time to dream as well. Sheng Qin will go on to have another family besides you. It is his destiny. However the child you have will be your happiness. He will accompany you to the time beyond now. Both of you will have endless time till the cosmo recall us back, we will all remain here."
